Chapter ?1568 Strategist Duo


    "NO!"


    The shout was toote because the ck wave had expanded and sshed like ink, swallowing the experts from the Griffith Family.


    The people were so shocked that they couldn''t even say anything before they were absorbed by the ck substance.


    "Get some rest." Theo smiled at Rea and the rest. "I''ll take care of the rest."


    Rea let out a long breath and said, "Understood."


    Theo nodded and finally focused on the original Theo again. He ignored all the shocks that happened all around him because they never expected Theo could get rid of the experts of the Griffith Family and a King ss Monster in an instant.


    What they didn''t know was Theo expending a lot of his energy in this fight. He was acting tough like this, so no one realized his current condition.


    Even though he had to admit it, he still wondered whether he could kill the original Theo or not with this power. After all, the original Theo had infinite Magic Power and stamina. He had to be a Saint first before having enough confidence to take down the original Theo.


    That was why Theo was getting rid of as much power as he could.


    "Now, it''s your turn to die." Theo red at the original Theo.


    The original Theo wanted to re up, but he remembered that Theo might be using his attack to his advantage again. If that were the case, the Poison King would be the first target.


    ''No, wait. Don''t tell me this is his real goal?'' The original Theo had just realized that Theo never had the intention to fight him in his current state. It was simply impossible for Theo to kill him.


    But the shock in the original Theo''s face was all it needed for Theo to confirm what he thought earlier. With a sly smile on his face, Theo disappeared.


    "No, you don''t!" The original Theo leaped to catch Theo, but the clone Theo stopped him, asking, "What''s wrong? I''m your enemy."


    "You!" The original Theo gritted his teeth and created a ck substance from his body. He wanted to swallow everything, but the clone had been keeping him in check this whole time. It was truly hard to slip past him. So, the only thing he could do was shout. "Poison King. Retreat!"


    The Poison King was startled by the shout and confused at the same time. But he was toote to react to anything because Theo had reached his position.


    "I''vee for your life." Theo smirked and snapped his finger. Suddenly, the area turned into the starry sky again. "I''m going to assist you a bit, Grandfather. Do as you please; I''m going to match you!"


    "Hoh?" A smile appeared on Leonardo''s face. He was excited because this was the first time they had fought together like this. "Then, don''t mind if I do."


    Suddenly, the queen jumped forth while waving her wand. Normally, the wand would only let out Magic Power, but this time, the Magic Power had turned into a lightning strike.


    "!!!" The Poison King was startled and hurriedly produced a poison to melt this lightning.


    He managed to throw the poison, but this was only enough for when Leonardo only had Magic Power. And now, Theo gifted Leonardo''s attack an element that suited each of them, amplifying their power. There was no way the Poison King could deal with them easily.


    "Shit!" The Poison King gritted his teeth and threw his body to the side, barely avoiding the lightning strike. However, he had yet to escape the formation that Leonardo had arranged.


    Suddenly, two knights were standing on thes next to his, shing their des.


    A ck-colored me came out of their swords and ran forward through any medium, creating a huge wall of ck me that could burn everything.


    "This is that ck monster…" The Poison King noticed this attack and tried to use his poison to suppress this ck me.


    But Leonardo was faster inbining his power, knowing that whatever he did, Theo would match his movement.


    In fact, both of them seemed to know what each other was thinking, allowing them to cooperate perfectly. Other than Theo''s clone, there seemed to be someone who could match his movement fluidly.


    Leonardo smirked while waving his hands down. An ice wall came out perpendicr to the ck me, trapping the Poison King inside a box.


    "This is…" The Poison King noticed something. The ones who created this ice wall were the bishops. He was truly surrounded by a ck me on his two sides and an ice wall on the other two sides. Just looking at this alone, it was clear that Leonardo was nning an ambush.


    So, he had toe out immediately before Leonardo closed the box.


    He jumped into the air, but he somehow crashed into a barrier, knocking him back to the ground.


    "This is…" The Poison King recognized the barrier made by Leonardo''s rook. Of course, he wasn''t afraid of it because he could melt it.


    "It''s useless!" The Poison King smirked and shot out his poison, but the barrier suddenly turned ck, covering the entire barrier.


    "Kh." The Poison King gritted his teeth because his poison didn''t work due to Theo''s ability. He blocked the mutated monster''s poison and radiation with this steel after all, so even the Poison King couldn''t prate the barrier.


    Knowing that the air was useless, the Poison King hurriedly turned to the side, nning to break through from either the ck me or the ice wall.


    Since the ice wall could turn into ice, the Poison King chose to go through to the ck me. He sent forth his poison first to extinguish the fire, but he was stunned when he saw another barrier blocking his path after the fire was gone.


    "What?!" The Poison King was startled because he realized he had been trappedpletely. "No, wait. What''s the trap?"


    The Poison King suddenly felt Magic Power fluctuation above him.


    Numerous white lines appeared as if it was connected to something.


    "Wait, thes…" The Poison King gasped, finding each had been hiding the chess pieces. This allowed Leonardo to set up a formation. "Not good!"


    By the time he realized, the lines were aligned. One would be confused because they couldn''t see anything from the side, but the Poison King could see the shape directly because he was at the bottom.


    It looked like an octagram. The rooks, the knights, the bishops, the queen, and the king became the pivot points of two rectangles that were diagonal to each other. And the pawns took a spot on the crossed spots between lines.


    Leonardo stood in the middle of the formation while pping his hand. "It''s time for you to die, Poison King."


    "Checkmate."
