I rely on myself

Chapter 778 Take action
Astrid naturally didn't know what Lin Yuan was thinking at this time, but continued to win over Lin Yuan with words: "...Unlike those despicable bystanders in the Vatican, we, the Rose Division, have been fighting against the domination of the world powers in order to avoid a world war, so we need your talent."

While belittling her colleagues in the Magicians Association, she was also promoting her own legitimacy. Regardless of whether it was right or not, at least Astrid's words were very attractive at this moment.

"You must be very proud of your own talents, so can you bear it? Not being able to get a stage that matches it, joining our Rose Division is different. I promise you here that as long as you join us, as the witch with the most power and influence in the Rose Division except for another senior cadre, you can even judge and judge other roses when necessary, and recommend others to become new roses. If you are willing, I can be your guarantor and let you sit on the throne of roses."

In order to win over Lin Yuan, Astrid spent a lot of money.

You have to know that the Rose Division is the oldest magic society, and its purpose is to suppress power. Although it is basically unknown, it is a real and very powerful force.

They are not afraid of even the Magicians Association and are able to compete with it, and even fight against the world powers. Their presence can be seen in countries all over the world, which is extremely powerful.

If one could become a member of such a force, or even a cadre at that, one can imagine what kind of status, power and wealth one could obtain.

However, facing this extremely attractive invitation, Lin Yuan seemed very calm.

"If I said no."

Following Lin Yuan's unexpected words, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed.

The smile on Astrid's face disappeared, and her previous enthusiastic look instantly cooled down to become calm, even indifferent.

"I don't think this is a good choice, Qing boy."

As she said this, a suppressed and cold murderous aura emanated from Astrid and gradually enveloped the room.

Lin Yuan and the others naturally felt it as well. Arthur and Karna immediately became alert and were ready to draw their weapons and fight at any time. Lin Yuan also became alert, but of course he did not show any abnormality on the surface, and even fought back directly and mercilessly.

"It's true that you value my talent, but to avoid a world war? It's really thanks to you that you can tell such an obvious lie, Lady Golden Rose."

"........."

"If you really think I don't know your true face, then you underestimate me. With my current ability, it is not a problem for me to collect some information about the Rose Division. What you said about your Rose Division affecting the actions of the world powers is indeed true, but that is not to avoid a world war, but for your power. After all, you are just a group of rats hiding in the dark. You can only jump around in this situation where the relations between the world powers are tense and war may break out at any time. If you really have to face the violence of a country, you are just like that."

Lin Yuan's words undoubtedly tore off the fig leaf of the Rose Division and humiliated them severely. Astrid, who was called the "witch", would naturally not remain unresponsive to this.

“…Hehehehe, this is really, should we say that ignorance is fearless? Hehehehe————”

She laughed in anger. At this moment, Astrid's thoughts of pulling Lin Yuan into the Rose Division had completely disappeared. She only had one thought left, which was to let this boastful brat know what fear was. Thinking of this, Astrid completely let go of her suppression. In an instant, a murderous aura as cold as the Antarctic current swept across like a storm.

At the same time, a terrifying purple-black gas swept over, spreading as quickly as smoke. In the area covered by it, any objects in it were slowly corroded in a short while.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yuan suddenly became alert, and quietly used magic power to form a layer of protection on his own surface, completely isolating it. Arthur and Karna directly took out their weapons, ready to fight.

Astrid's smile widened as she watched Arthur and Karna draw their weapons, but the murderous aura and momentum she exuded became more violent.

"It seems that you, Qing country kid, are very clear about the consequences of what you just said, so I don't need to say much, come over here, let me see what you rely on to be able to talk big!!!"

"Oh!"

With a loud bang, the office on the top floor of the president's residence was blown apart from the inside as if it were filled with explosives. Several figures jumped out from the smoke of the explosion and landed on the lawn in front of the president's residence.

Lin Yuan, Arthur, and Karna fell directly to the ground, relying on their own physical fitness to absorb the impact of the landing. On the other side, Astrid performed an unknown magic to reduce the falling speed of herself and the two puppets, appearing more elegant.

After both parties landed on the ground, they looked at each other. Lin Yuan frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, while Astrid seemed particularly relaxed.

"Arthur, Karna, don't worry about me, just go ahead."

"Okay, then you be careful, Lin Yuan."

"Leave it to me, Master."

Suddenly, Lin Yuan gave an order, to which Arthur and Karna responded directly, because they both knew very well about Lin Yuan's strength. They knew that even if they wanted to take down Lin Yuan, it would take a lot of effort, let alone ordinary automatic dolls, so they attacked directly with confidence.

With a strong stomption of his feet, the ground exploded instantly, accompanied by a huge reaction force. With the help of this reaction force, Arthur and Karna both turned into a trail of afterimages and rushed straight to Astrid, swung down the guns and swords in their hands without any mercy.

"!!!"x2
An unexpected incident occurred. Facing the attack, Astrid had no intention of dodging. Both Arthur's sword and Karna's spear successfully hit her... No! It would be wrong to say that they hit her.

The weapons they swung down seemed to have hit nothing, but the two men could clearly feel that Astrid was right in front of them. The conflict between the two different senses of perception and touch made them confused for a moment.
