God of Tricksters

Chapter 361 - Squiddy Lamp

The next day.

Lambert Lake was a lake surrounded by a gentle slope from two directions. The trees themselves only filled the direction where the river was, not the slope. Instead of trees, the slope was filled with green grass and some blue-colored rocks.

The cool atmosphere made one want to spend their vacation in this place. However, they couldn't do so because the lake had a monster inside it.

The monster was called Squiddy Lamp. It was basically a freshwater squid. Because this place was surrounded by monsters, not many visited this place other than to grab some Purple Haze Grass in Big Sin Valley. That was also the reason why there was a small path leading outside the hill formation.

According to some rumor, the monster would come out if they stayed too close to the lake, so Theo set up the camp a bit farther away.

Suddenly, a young man stepped on the sand near the lake. He brought only a white spear while wearing a confident smile on his face.

It was none other than Theo himself. He didn't wear a mask nor bring his big bag. It was just him trying to challenge the monster like how he usually did, except for his second spear.

If one took a look at this scene, one would think Theo wanted to challenge the squid one-on-one.

Theo closed his eyes for a moment before raising his hand, forming his Magic Bullet.

As if sensing this Magic Power, a white tentacle suddenly emerged from the lake. Its width alone was ten feet and reached as high as a hundred feet.

Theo became a bit serious when he knew what kind of monster he needed to face. He couldn't help but remember when a certain serpent brought him into a bottomless lake.

"I couldn't see how long that guy is… Also, it's easy for him to circle the hills around me. Compared to him, this monster… it's just a small squid." Theo released all his Magic Bullets to the tentacle's head, trying to blast it away.

He also used his Tracking Ability, making the Magic Bullets hit right on the middle of the tentacle's head.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

A series of explosions occurred as the tentacle was blown away and fell into the water again.

Suddenly, three more tentacles emerged from the water, followed by a sharp-pointed tentacle, two times thicker than the others.

Theo soon found a pair of eyes on that big one, knowing it wasn't a tentacle but the squid's main body.

The squid itself was white. However, he finally knew why the squid was called Squiddy Lamp.

Inside the main body, there were several lights that suddenly glowed. Although the sunlight suppressed the light, Theo could still see the blue lights behind the squid's skin.

When those lights shone even brighter, the tentacles also produced the same glow. Each tentacle seemed to have four light sources, with the first two being in the tip of the tentacle while the other two were scattered in the long part.

"Hmm." Theo furrowed his eyebrows when he saw a tentacle slammed the ground on his right.

He thought it missed him, but the tentacle soon moved to the right, sweeping him.

Theo used his Blink to avoid it, reappearing above the tentacle, but he soon saw two more tentacles trying to smack him to the ground.

He remained calm and used his Telekinesis to push himself to the left. It was clear that Theo wasn't that bothered with the size.

Even though the reach was bigger, the movement of the squid was too slow to even keep up with him.

However, it soon changed when the first tentacle reappeared from the water, almost hitting him from the side.

Theo clicked his tongue and used his Cannon Blast and External Flow to hit the squid.

The squid didn't like Theo's movement, so it confronted Theo's attack without doing anything.

The Cannon Blast should blow away if not create a hole in the tentacle… Or that was what was supposed to happen.

Suddenly, the two light sources on the tentacles shone brightly, forming a small sphere in front of the tentacle.

"!!!" Theo widened his eyes because his Cannon Blast was repelled to the side as the tentacle continued its way toward him.

"Elemental Shield." Theo formed two Elemental Shields just to stop the tentacle for a second. In the meantime, he used his Telekinesis to land on the ground.

During that short flight, Theo confirmed the squid's remaining arms, which seemed to help the squid stay afloat.

"Hmm… Unlike the squid from Earth, this guy has two pairs of tentacles. Interesting." Theo smiled and prepared to take this squid down. "Also, I need to watch out for that blue light. It seemed to be releasing Magic Power like External Flow that helped the squid repel my attack. Well, I think the stronger the monster, they can use a certain degree of Five Aspects, but at an intuitive level. Only those General Class monsters or above that can use it at an intellectual level.

"I guess that's why they are far stronger than Normal and Rare Class monsters." Theo's expression turned serious. "This one is a Rare Class… I guess. If the blue lights can repel my attacks, I'm afraid I need to target a specific area where there is no light."

Theo then saw a pair of tentacles swiping from the left and right, forcing him to use his Blink again.

Since the squid wanted him to go back to the air, he changed his direction and reappeared fifteen feet behind his previous location, completely avoiding the tentacles.

He stared at the huge tentacles before releasing his killing intent.

"However, the squid doesn't have speed, so it's easier to deal with than the lich as long as I am careful. I don't feel like getting injured in this fight." Theo smiled.

Suddenly, another presence came from behind him.

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and turned around, looking at whoever dared to ambush him.

But this person truly shocked him. He never thought this person would come again before him, especially after what happened in the competition.

"Scott!" Theo widened his eyes and called his name.

Yes. He was none other than one of Theo's three big bullies, Scott Brown.
