Chapter Eighty-One: Moving Forward
The accelerated attack that couldn't react directly hit Lin Yuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The great sword-type magic guide weapon pierced through his chest.
“...... Cough. ”
The long knife that Lin Yuan wanted to parry was completely missed, and it just grazed Meninus's side.
"It's really painful......"
Lin Yuan coughed up blood foam in his mouth, but he laughed.
In exchange for his own injuries, he had already caught the other party.
Meninus tried to draw his sword that pierced the enemy's body, but found that his hands and weapons seemed to be glued, and he couldn't make the next move.
Only then did he realize that Lin Yuan's empty left hand was unconsciously placed on his arm.
"It's a real trouble......"
The reason why Lin Yuan was able to move in an environment where time stopped was not because of his own ability, but because he was synchronized with the time of the character Meninas.
It was the synchronicity and attunement of the soul, an unfamiliar and dangerous technique, an instinctive ability that he had only recently discovered.
When Meninas gave up the stop time and shifted the time to speed up himself, Lin Yuan, who was not used to it, lost synchronization with the other party, until the other party attacked him and made contact with each other, and the time of the two sides was synchronized again.
It was only at this time that Lin Yuan took the lead.
Meninus was unable to make the next move, not because of any magic obstruction, but because his time was slowed down.
Lin Yuan, in turn, used the opponent's magic ability to speed up his own time, reduce the opponent's speed, and trigger the illusion of inactivity.
And this illusion can only last for a few seconds, and Meninas can break the slow speed of his body as long as he continues to use his magic.
Lin Yuan wants to distinguish the winner in these few seconds.
"Meninas!"
Lin Yuan coughed up blood and shouted loudly.
"Answer me, who are you, what are your desires, what are the seekers of truth?"
It was an unnatural pause, a noticeable wavering of will, Meninus stopped all movement, and the magic in his body stopped.
His body wanted to continue attacking, but it was stopped by a stronger mental will.
Then, in an instant, his body moved again, defiing his own will and acting like a marionette.
However, Lin Yuan had already mastered the time in this instant.
He delivered a deadly attack.
The long black knife slashed down into Meninus's neck with precision, tearing half of his neck and nearly severing his head.
A large amount of blood gushed out from Meninus's horrific wounds, staining the white gazebo behind him, and the blood stained the nearby flowers.
"Thanks for the cooperation. ”
Lin Yuan smiled, and his hand was used again, the black long knife cut the flesh and bones, and the sharp blade pulled, completely separating the head of the man in front of him.
"Ahem...... Careless, unprepared......"
Looking at the headless corpse that fell in front of him, Lin Yuan sighed helplessly.
He is too careless, and he thinks too much of his own strength, and now he is not his former self.
If Meninas hadn't stopped the operation of his magic and removed the magic barrier protecting his body on his own, it would have been impossible to solve everything so quickly.
Meninas can be said to have been sent to death voluntarily, Lin Yuan was just an executioner, and it was not a battle at all from beginning to end.
If he still had half the power to deal with that Yuta not long ago, maybe things would be much simpler, but there are not so many ifs in the world, and this time it can only be said that he is too big.
"Are you too anxious...... But there's no way around it......"
Lin Yuan breathed slowly, endured the pain and drew out the sharp sword inserted in his chest, and sat on the ground panting.
"It's embarrassing enough ......"
The wound on Lin Yuan's body healed quickly, the blood no longer flowed, and the pain gradually disappeared, and after a few minutes, his injury was completely gone.
"The recovery speed with this method is really not as fast as before......"
Lin Yuan didn't hate the feeling of pain, but the weakness of his body that he hadn't seen for a long time made him quite unaccustomed to it.
"It's time to leave, too. ”
He could feel that Meninus's subordinates, who had remained outside the palace, had discovered the changes here through some channel, and had come here at full speed.
He looked down at the man's corpse in front of him, and somewhat understood why the other party wanted to empty the entire palace.
If there was a third person here, he would not have succeeded as an executioner.
"Is human willpower strong or weak?"
Lin Yuan put away the weapon in his hand, and then there was an extra crystallized magic tool in his hand.
It was a semicircular object the size of a palm, a crystalline magic tool capable of spewing flames on its own, or more precisely, a bomb specifically designed to incinerate.
Weapons powered by mana crystals can be wasted, but their power is guaranteed, and they will burn the vicinity completely.
Lin Yuan set the time for the crystallized magic tool to self-detonate and put it on the ground.
The bomb will burn all traces of this place, and no one else will know what happened here.
Lin Yuan didn't actually need to do this, it was okay to leave just like that, but he couldn't be sure if things were going smoothly, so he still had to be more careful not to leave anything superfluous.
"It's really the end of the game, isn't it? Like most things in the world, since that's ......."
He looked down at the body of the detached man one last time, then silently opened the portal and disappeared from there.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to give up the invasion of the Nozimir Kingdom?"
Yana, the nezumi who was originally busy dealing with the affairs of the Kaos Empire, was suddenly urgently summoned by his master, and then conveyed the news.
"My original target was only the Seeker of the Truth, and since that person is dead, the Kingdom of Nozimir is already dispensable to me, so let that country stay there. ”
Lin Yuan stood by the window, overlooking the city beneath the Black Tower Barado.
The capital of the country, which he built with his own hands, is a center of gravity whose population is gradually increasing in a planned way.
When Lin Yuan thinks back now, everything is like a dream.
Although the Nezumi Anna felt a pity in his heart, the Nozimir Kingdom had lost its monarch and the combat power of the strategic magister, and the situation in the country began to become chaotic, which was the best time to invade, but the master's order was absolute, and he had no other opinions.
"Let the army that has already set off let them continue to advance, but their mission has changed from invading other countries to defending the border, so let's think it is a military exercise. ”
Lin Yuan looked up at the reflection of the world in the sky.
He should still have time.
"In addition, you think tanks should come up with a way as soon as possible to get us rid of the responsibility for the death of a large number of people in the Kingdom of Kennessia, it was not caused by us in the first place, but because of the lack of evidence, it will definitely encounter difficulties, although this is not a simple matter, but I hope you can do it. ”
"We will certainly live up to Your Majesty's trust!"
Sensing her master's trust, Anna the Nezumi responded loudly with some excitement.
"Finally, let's get in touch with the Wizards Alliance and the Spell Council. ”
Lin Yuan turned around and looked at the life he had created.
"Didn't they keep asking us to sign a peace treaty? Let's just say yes, we shouldn't have a chance to use strategic magic in the future. ”
Anna the Nezumi didn't expect to hear unexpected orders one after another.
"While this world is in turmoil, it is most convenient to negotiate conditions, so we will agree to join them and become one of the messengers of peacekeeping, and perhaps the affairs of the Kingdom of Kenesia can be resolved smoothly because of this, Yana, I will leave it to you with full responsibility. ”
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that it will be handed over to us! The General Staff will give you the most complete result!"
Anna the Nezumi knelt down with tears in his eyes, and it was his supreme honor that his master would entrust him with such an important matter that would affect the fortunes of the country.
Lin Yuan smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
As long as the connection is not severed, the life he created will worship itself unconditionally.
Although the reaction of the nezumi Yana is somewhat exaggerated, it is also a good proof of the relationship and connection between the two parties.
Therefore, Lin Yuan understood that he still had time.
"Pick up the pace......"
He didn't know how long that time was, and he had to race against the clock.
"Next...... Only the last one remains. ”
Lin Yuan's eyes saw through the world's membrane and looked at the earth's ocean.
In that vast ocean, there is a final obstacle.
The different color of the Vientiane Research Association is the last one.
That's the point of divergence that determines the future.
Everything will begin to come to an end at that time.
