Chapter 651 - Surrounded (1/2)

After coming up with the plan, Theo, Agata and Ava didn't bother with the investigation anymore. All they did was kill all the monsters they found.

According to Ava, there were at least a hundred Rare Class Monsters in the area, judging from the size of the battlefield alone.

Her judgment was based on her experience when traveling with Avarice, so Theo trusted her.

At the same time, he was pretty happy to know there were many strong enemies as he could level up many times.

Agata was the same. This was a perfect opportunity to try all sorts of techniques she had acquired in the past few months.

While they were fighting those monsters, there was a monster observing them.

Inside a dark place where light barely illuminated the room, a female with green hair was sitting on top of a green leaf that came out of the stone wall.

Around her were grasses that were swaying left and right as if they were communicating with her.

After a while, the woman narrowed her eyes. This was already the seventh day from Theo's first arrival on the hill, so the grasses finally felt Theo's presence after coming to the grassland as soon as they finished killing all monsters on the hill.

”I see. There are three rats sneaking into this garden of mine.” The woman narrowed her eyes as anger soon filled her heart. ”It turns out there are people who dare to interrupt my fun. Since that's the case, I'm going to kill them.”

Before she rose from her position, she seemed to get other information. ”Hmm? They're hiding inside the forest? That's perfect to wear them out before ambushing them.”

Meanwhile, Theo and Agata were attacking the tree that spread their roots to attack them.

Bam.

The trunk snapped and fell to the ground, killing the tree.

”Ava,” Theo called Ava, who seemed to have a serious expression. ”What's wrong?”

Ava turned to Theo while frowning. She thought for a moment and shook her head. ”It must be my imagination.”

”Whether it's your imagination or not, we will be the one to decide.” Theo stopped her and said, ”So, just spill it.”

”Well, I thought I heard something moving underground.”

”Hmm.” Theo looked around while saying, ”Okay. We don't know who our enemy is, so we need to be careful.”

”Yes. I will continue observing the noise around us.”

”We may face some difficulty soon. Don't lower your guard.” Theo turned to Agata.

”Understood.” Agata nodded with a calm expression while watching their surroundings.

However, Ava soon shouted, ”Something is truly moving. It's coming toward us at fast speed.”

”!!!” Theo and Agata exchanged looks and expanded their Awareness to the ground. They soon found several presences marching underground.

”Oi, oi. What kind of creatures can move underground this fast and this far?” Theo made a wry smile as he leaped backward.

Agata also matched his movement as she formed a shield with her pink smoke.

Suddenly, ten vines burst out of the ground and hit them.
