Chapter 246 - The Clone That Shocked The World

"Stratagem." Ignazio raised both hands and released several red lines from his hands. They all were attached to each person, including Sihan and Ellen.

"Eh? What is this?" Ellen furrowed her eyebrows before finding Lavinia had closed their distance. "Frosty Misty."

"Shatter!" Lavinia pointed her hand to Ellen as the white fog was dispersed mysteriously.

"Kh!" She blinked a few times and took a few steps back as Ellen turned around, exchanging position with Sihan. "Ice Wave!"

'My stratagem allows me to calculate all your movements and predict your next movement. And I saw this one a mile ago.' Ignazio thought, smiled and halted his step. Right before the Ice Wave hit him, he leaped to the side and went around them.

Lavinia also did the same and attacked them from both sides.

Ellen and Sihan needed to readjust their position, so Sihan faced Ignazio again. He jumped to Ignazio to stop him while Ellen pointed her finger at Lavinia, shooting a small blue light at her.

"Frost Nova."

With this kind of speed and this distance, Lavinia should be avoiding this attack by going to the side. It would surely disrupt their plan, but Lavinia went ahead and received that blue light with her own left hand.

"Argh!" Lavinia screamed in pain but kept running to Ellen.

"What?!" Ellen widened her eyes in shock.

"We have a healer, you see." Lavinia endured the pain, smirked and slipped past Ellen while leaving a green ball on the ground and heading straight for Sihan's back. "You're mine."

"Not Good. Frosty—" Ellen tried to freeze the green ball that was going to explode, but it was too late.

Boom.

"Ah!" Ellen protected herself from the explosion with her power, but she was still engulfed by the explosion, trapping her inside for a moment.

Within that time, Lavinia came to Sihan's back, extending her hand to push that pressure plate.

As if he knew Lavinia was coming, Sihan turned around and ignored Ignazio. Before Lavinia or Ignazio could eliminate him, Sihan gave a powerful push to Lavinia and blew her away to the explosion.

It was at this time the explosion got frozen as Ellen came out and hit Lavinia in the back.

'Kh.' Lavinia clenched her teeth. 'I know that the plan has failed the moment Sihan pushed me away, but he should be in the same position. Ignazio will… Wait!'

Lavinia saw Theo appearing behind Ignazio and shouted, "Ig—"

Before she could warn him, she was stopped by Diego as if telling her that she was already eliminated and had no right to influence the battle anymore.

Bam.

Ignazio used a bit of his strength to hit Sihan's back and eliminate him, but Theo also planned to do the same thing, albeit Ignazio already knew about his presence this whole time.

"I know you're already there, Theodore's Clone!" Ignazio smirked as he turned around and elbowed Theo, only to find the latter disappeared. "Huh? Where is he?"

Suddenly, he felt the tap on his back, signaling that the battle was over.

"What? Since when?" Ignazio widened his eyes and thought, 'I have predicted him coming after me and acted as if I don't know his position. Even Enrica has used her skill to inform that his clone is coming… Don't tell me he knows that I am waiting for him? No, this kind of movement can only be possible…'

Ignazio suddenly sucked a cold breath as he came to an understanding. He looked at Theo before he got carried to the side of the arena together with Sihan and Lavinia.

"What is this? Did I just see something unprecedented?" Sheira announced her shock when she saw Theo's clone using a skill. "Did Theodore's Clone just teleport like the main body? Does this mean Theodore's Clone can use a skill like the main body?

"There is not a single record that a Clone can do such a thing! He faked his movement and used his Teleportation Skill to appear behind Ignazio and hit him! This… This… Doesn't this mean Theodore Griffith alone can be counted as two people?"

The cheers erupted as they just witnessed something amazing. However, all those from big influences that had watched this battle for scouting or enjoying their time couldn't help but rise from their seats. Even the other students who participated in this competition stood up and stared at the screen in disbelief.

All of them were shocked that Clone Theo could actually use skills. Whether it was in this game or the brawl, they quickly realized Theo was someone who could change the entire course of the battle. After all, no matter the condition, they would gain an "additional" member.

China Team.

Cheng Sui quickly turned around and said, "Quick. Inform the country there is someone we need to catch this time. Tell them if they don't want Theodore Griffith, my Cheng Family can nurture him."

"Cheng Sui?" Deng Luoyang squinted her eyes. "I am sorry, but I am not understanding."

"We need to raise the stake first to invite him." Cheng Sui looked at his best friend, Zhong Li. "I am sure you understand my intention, right?"

"Yeah." Zhong Li nodded in agreement. "A Clone that can use skills, his thinking ability that can be compared to Ignazio, and his extraordinary battle prowess. From those alone, getting someone like him is the same as getting two experts. In addition, he can cooperate with his clone far better than what a normal team can do because they're one person. If he is nurtured well and reaches Mythical Rank, it's the same as getting two Mythical Rank Experts. I'm sure you all can see that his clone has the same physical ability as him, right?"

After that explanation, they came to realize Theo's true worth. His skills aside, the clone alone could be a peerless skill if the real person were able to grow well.

Like Nella previously mentioned to Theo, the banquet after the competition would be used to scout other members. Loyalty could be bought for a period of time and if they treated those people well enough, that loyalty might become permanent. That was why this competition's banquet might have him as the center.

As for the one who said it to him, Nella couldn't contain her smile when watching his ability.
