I rely on myself

Chapter 361 Serious
Facing Bert's increasingly intensive attacks, Lin Yuan could no longer resist. Although he managed to compete with the opponent with his superb martial arts, the gap in basic physical ability was too big after all.

Lin Yuan already felt his hands and feet were numb from constantly blocking and deflecting the opponent's attacks. Although Lin Yuan had tried his best to avoid head-on confrontations and dodged whenever possible, there were always some attacks that could not be avoided and could only be taken head-on.

Even with the help of various force-relieving mechanisms, the impact can be greatly reduced, but if it happens too often, it will eventually accumulate and cause a lot of injuries to the arms and other parts of the body.

Lin Yuan looked at Bert. Although he wanted to stop the fighting now, after all, continuing to fight would not only do no good, but would also attract a lot of unnecessary attention. So to be honest, Lin Yuan no longer had any intention of continuing.

But unfortunately, looking at Bert's ferocious look and the attack without any hesitation, Lin Yuan knew that his idea was simply impossible under the circumstances, so there was only one way left.

"What a hassle. We were just out celebrating, but why did we end up provoking this guy? I should have gone somewhere else if I had known. But there's no point in saying anything now. We should put in some real effort to get rid of this guy and put an end to this farce."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan's eyes became serious. Since he had already made the decision, there was no need to hesitate.

Lin Yuan suddenly took a step back to create some distance, but he could regain this distance by taking a step forward. So although Bert was a little surprised why Lin Yuan retreated, he didn't think too much about it. He took a step forward and clenched his fist with one hand, ready to hit Lin Yuan.

Just as Bert took that step, Lin Yuan suddenly whispered, "The ground is sinking!"

A faint magical fluctuation came from Lin Yuan. Bert, who was so close to Lin Yuan, could of course feel this magical fluctuation, and he felt very strange.

It's not surprising that Lin Yuan knows magic. Although magic is indeed rare, as a senior adventurer of Loki's family, he has seen a lot about it and is not surprised by it.

He was just wondering why the magic fluctuation was so weak. The weakest magic fluctuation he had ever seen was ten times stronger than this. Just as he was wondering, the foot he stepped on suddenly lost balance.

This sudden change caused his entire body shape to change. Although he did not fall to the ground, he was unable to move for a while.

He quickly looked at his foot that had lost its balance, and saw that the ground where his foot was stepping suddenly sank, forming a small pit, and his foot was trapped in it.

Looking at this scene, Bert seemed to understand something and quickly turned to look at Lin Yuan.

Three fireballs appeared in the air in front of Lin Yuan. Looking at Bert's gaze, the corners of Lin Yuan's mouth curled up slightly.

"Continuous fireballs!"

With a low hum, three fireballs suddenly shot towards Bert, drawing strange trajectories in the air like meteors.

Because his feet were stuck in a small pit, Bert had no time to dodge and was hit directly by the three fireballs.

"boom!!"

A violent explosion went off like a grenade, and Bert was completely covered by the explosion. The gust of wind generated by the explosion swept across, causing chaos among the crowd watching.

"Is that magic?"

"Hey, hey, hey, is <Fierce Wolf> okay?"

"It's hard to say. If you get caught in this kind of attack, you might die!" "Hey, if that's the case, then what about Loki's family..."

Although no further words were said, everyone subconsciously understood and stared closely into the smoke.

Contrary to what the onlookers thought, Lin Yuan did not show any worried expression, but frowned instead.

"Should I say he is worthy of being a level 5 adventurer? He took the explosion of three fireballs head-on, but he was just a little embarrassed."

As if responding to Lin Yuan's words, the smoke produced by the explosion dissipated, revealing Bert's figure.

Bert was seen taking a defensive stance with his arms crossed in front of him. Looking at the dark marks on the arm armor on his arms, it was obvious that the three fireballs were blocked by him.

Apart from that, there were some blackened marks on Bert's body, but that was all. He did not suffer any serious injuries due to the high temperature and shock wave of the explosion.

Bert put down his arms, looked at Lin Yuan seriously, and said, "Hey, you guy..."

Bert no longer had any anger or other emotions in his heart at this moment, only full of seriousness. Although the previous fight had made him realize that the other party was not a guy who overestimated his own abilities and he became serious, that was all. However, the magic just now once again refreshed Bert's understanding of Lin Yuan.

Although the power is not very strong, it is activated very quickly and is also very effective. It is obvious that this magic is designed for actual combat use.

He even took on three fireballs head-on. If he hadn't been at a relatively high level as an adventurer and had good durability, he wouldn't have been able to take them head-on without getting hurt.

This series of facts made Bert realize one thing, that is, the other party might really be just a level 2 adventurer, but it does not mean that the other party's strength cannot threaten him. If he is not careful, he might really be defeated by the person in front of him.

After realizing this, Bert became completely serious. All useless emotions in his heart disappeared instantly, leaving only full seriousness.

Seeing Bert's serious look, although Lin Yuan's face was still very calm, he secretly said "trouble" in his heart.

After all, Bert, who has become completely serious, will no longer be as easy to deal with as before, and he will really use all his strength.

This is certainly not good news for Lin Yuan, who originally lacks hard power and can only rely on skills and tricks to barely compete with the opponent. Bert has become completely serious and those little tricks he used before are basically useless. He can only rely on his strength.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan looked around. A large crowd gathered around, watching the fight between the two. It can be foreseen that no matter what the final result of this fight is, starting from tomorrow, he and his family will receive a lot of attention.

After all, an adventurer who has just reached level 2 can compete with a long-established level 5 adventurer, who is also a senior adventurer of the Loki clan, one of the strongest clans. Even if he loses in the end, it is considered an honorable defeat in the eyes of others.

Such interesting news would definitely attract the attention of those gods who love fun, and then he and his family would definitely become famous.

Thinking of this result, Lin Yuan had no hidden thoughts. After all, he was destined to become famous and attract a lot of attention. So he would just make the best of it and show enough strength, which could at least shock some people.

Thinking of this, a stern look flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes, and the expression on his face became serious.
