Chapter 759 - Moving To The South
After returning to the Cubicar, they decided to take a rest first, talking about their strategy.
They had understood that normal strategy wouldn't work in this place due to the high number of Rare Class Monsters. If they were to be surrounded by Rare Class Monsters along with all the monsters under them, they would be in trouble.
Luckily, there was no General Class Monster in this place that commanded all of them or the situation would be much worse.
It was clear that none of them had used all their strength, even Maya. She hadn't used all the functions available on her armor, so all of them knew they could still go farther.
Hence, they divided their roles in terms of emergency.
As one would expect, Maya would be in charge of a massive horde if something like that happened, considering they were inside a densely populated area.
Ava would take care of any enemies that would attack them. In other words, their guardian deity.
On the contrary, Agata's role was to form an illusion that could change the entire terrain itself. It would be hard, but Agata believed she was capable of doing that to a certain extent.
Theo's role was their commander. This was an absolute position for Theo, and he had no way to escape from it.
After agreeing to their own role, the group continued their way to the south of the mountain, killing hundreds if not thousands of monsters every single day.
Maya had learned that their leveling speed was at an unprecedented level. And there were three factors contributing to it.
The first was none other than Ava. Ava rarely killed a monster, and the EXP would come to either Theo or Agata. Because she followed him, Maya also received this kind of benefit.
Considering Ava was Theo's pet, if Theo didn't bring Agata or Maya here, his pace would be even faster.
The second factor was his clone. The clone was the second Theo, meaning he and Theo alone were able to do a two-person job easily. And with their coordination, they could even surpass it.
This was a big factor and Maya also anticipated what kind of future his clone would bring. There was a rumor of Theo's clone being restricted by its rank.
Considering Theo had been using this skill when he was in the school competition, people were speculating that his clone's rank was from D to B Rank.
Even if they thought it was a B Rank Skill, Theo would start getting into trouble when he became a Mythical Rank Expert. After all, the clone wouldn't be able to exert the same amount of power from a Mythical Rank Expert.
This news alone would be enough to lower Theo's value significantly. That was why the British Royal Family was trying hard to find someone who could rank up his skill. They should be able to control Theo with this benefit in their hand.
Last but not least, the factor that raised the pace of their leveling speed was Theo himself. His brain, strength, and talent were more than enough to surpass any kind of difficulty.
No, Maya believed it was because of Theo having these skills that the leveling speed could increase to this extent. If it was someone else who used Theo's power, she doubted they could replicate what Theo did.
With Theo, Agata, Maya, and Ava in one group, it felt like they were more superior to the usual group of six.
These were the three reasons Maya believed to be Theo's secret. As an assistant, Agata simply received this benefit. In fact, without Theo, Agata wouldn't be able to grow this fast.
Although she didn't want to admit it, Agata had surpassed Alea, her rival from Thersland. If she was the one fighting Ana in Russia, no one could predict who would win.
This fact simply elevated Theo's power to another level. After all, Ava was his. If Theo used his clone and Ava when fighting Ana, the latter wouldn't last long.
After knowing this information, it was easier for Maya to cooperate with Theo, knowing what to expect from each of them.
They continued hunting the monsters.
By the time they reached their destination in the south area, Theo had reached level 435. On the other hand, Agata and Maya only had a difference of a few levels as Agata was a level 453 illusionist, while Maya was three levels lower than her.
Unfortunately, they couldn't immediately head straight to the volcano. They took a few days to kill all the monsters in the surrounding area to hide their Cubicar.
After that, they paved their way to the mountain, taking another five days due to the complexity of the mission.
Finally, the night before they went to the mountain, Maya gathered them to discuss their plan to get the mission.
"So, tomorrow, we're going to go to the volcano. What's the plan?" Maya glanced at Agata since Theo always allowed Agata to make the plan first. "For your information, I need to be there because I can operate the cooling suit and help you put it on."
Agata closed her eyes for a moment and said, "As much as I want to accompany Theo to the volcano, I believe I should remain in this place to protect the Cubicar. Also, Ava will be with me because if something happens, she can deliver the message to you two.
"Hence, Maya and Theo will go to the volcano alone to complete the mission. Theo has his clone, so it shouldn't be a problem for you two to kill the remaining monsters standing in your way." Agata looked at Theo as if telling him she had finished her explanation.
"Well, that's the plan." Theo looked at Maya, "I will be in your care. Give me the knowledge about the plant you want me to retrieve, the cooling suit's information, and the suit itself."
"Well, I will tell you about the plant later. As for the cooling suit… I think you have seen it inside the wardrobe. It can release ice power that can cool you down for a minute against the extreme heat from the magma. If it's not possible, then we can consider this mission a failure."
"Due to the technical issue," Theo added, not wanting to be the reason they failed.
"…" Maya rolled her eyes and confirmed… "Due to the technical issue."
