Chapter 442: Meeting Ellen and Phyrill Again

Another week had passed and Theo almost reached level 300.

Since two days ago, he had been gradually moving to the center of Sinx Forest to find stronger monsters. However, he stumbled upon a big group that stayed one mile from the center.

The group had around two hundred people inside, making one confused why they created such a group.

That doubt soon changed when he saw people wearing military uniforms.

He was standing on top of a cliff because Ava told him she heard a large group ahead, so he flew on top of it and looked at the area.

"Hmm… I can't see much from here, but I can certainly see people wearing a military uniform." Theo muttered while sitting on the edge of the cliff.

They were gathering in a small plain in the middle of a forest, which might be the only place they could gather so many people at once.

"Ava, can you see them?" Theo asked Ava, who was sitting on his lap. "Do you know anything about them?"

"Kyu?" Ava shook her head.

"I wish I had binoculars here." Theo let out a long sigh. He raised his vision and looked at the horizon filled with trees. "Should we go there? A group that big is certainly suspicious."

Ava agreed with him as she raised her foot, pointing at their left. "Kyu."

Theo followed her vision and found a little commotion on their left. He soon found a few people fighting the wolves.

"You're not telling me to save them, right?"

Ava nodded her head without hesitation and clasped her feet together while shaking them as if two people were shaking their hands.

"Huh?" Theo thought for a moment and asked, "They are my friends?"

"Kyu!" She nodded.

Interested, Theo took a closer look. Luckily, they were not that far from here, so he could see them a little bit from above.

What made him change his decision was two pink-haired people. That color was so familiar to him to the point he already knew their identities in just a glance.

"Phyrill and Ellen." Theo narrowed his eyes. "Maybe we can ask them?"

"Kyu." Ava nodded in agreement. That was what she wanted to do from the start.

"Okay, let's head there." Theo smiled and jumped off the cliff, using his Telekinesis to fly on top of them.

On the contrary, Ellen and Phyrill hadn't noticed his presence as they were busy dealing with the wolves.

"Ellen!" Phyrill shouted while grabbing the wolf's wrist and throwing it to Ellen.

Ellen nodded and froze the wolf before shattering the ice into pieces. "There are only two more."

Phyrill saw the rest and decided to stop since his group handled them. "That's enough, I guess. They can deal with the rest."

"Okay." Ellen shrugged.

"Still, Alea hasn't come… Maybe she won't come to this place?" Phyrill sighed.

"Then, I will be joining you in this attack. Unless you have some problems with me here…" Ellen glanced at him, expecting his answer.

"Of course not." Phyrill chuckled. "We have reaped so many benefits just by coming to this place. I get ten levels within two weeks. It's good progress, especially with this number."

"Yeah." Ellen nodded. "I have leveled up eight times."

"Yep, that's why if you don't mind the danger, I won't mind if you follow us." Phyrill smiled before he looked up as if feeling someone's stare, finding Theo floating above them.

Theo was using his Joker Identity, so he only waved his hand and pointed down, asking if he could land there.

As soon as Phyrill gave a thumbs up, Theo descended from the sky and safely landed on the ground.

"You are still here?" Phyrill asked with a surprised face.

Theo nodded. "The monsters in the outskirts don't give me a huge amount of EXP anymore."

"I think they still give normal people enough… You are a greedy one, aren't you?" Phyrill teased him with a smirk and noticed that his group had finished their task. Before assigning another task, he asked Theo, "What are you doing here? If you wanted to raise your level, you wouldn't come to me."

"Actually, I want some information, especially regarding the huge camp in that direction." Theo pointed at the camp he found earlier. "I'm sure your group has met them, right?"

"Indeed." Phyrill nodded and glanced at his group. "We are done here. I'm going to have a little chat first before continuing today's task…"

The group noticed Theo and remembered him, so they just went away.

On the other hand, Ellen asked, "Do you have any plan other than leveling?"

Theo shook his head while tilting his head in confusion, not knowing why she asked that question.

"They are from the military. My group is also there, preparing for what to come in three days," explained Phyrill, ignoring Theo's reaction.

"Hmm?"

"We are aiming to attack Wolf City in three days. The purpose is to buy enough time for the military to send reinforcement and measure their strength. I don't know if you are already aware of this, but… All humans have been wiped out in Eion Plain."

"…" Theo looked down, falling into deep thought. "And you're not going to tell me they want to destroy them because some of the hunters have died, right?"

"They would have done it a hundred years ago if they planned to do it." He shrugged. "Have you noticed the change in this forest? Apparently, something big happened, making the wolves in this forest even more ferocious. I believe the military wants to see what they can do about this."

"I see." Theo thought for a moment, unaware that Ava was the culprit. After all, how could they know what Wolf City and Coal Dome wanted?

Theo said, "So, you are going to destroy the city? something like hit and run?"

"Yeah. The wolves are so much faster than us, so we are still coming up with plans." Phyrill shrugged.

"I am staying here with them." Ellen raised her hand and came up with an idea. She asked with a smile, "Do you want to come with us?"
