I rely on myself

Chapter 205 The mastermind behind the scenes
While the operations at both Loki and Kimberly have been completed, the aftermath has begun.

No one knew that on a distant hilltop, a handsome young man with emerald green hair and a deacon beside him watched the entire process.

"Oh my, it looks like it's over. It's not satisfying enough. Xin, should I take action now?"

This young man was the one who specifically commissioned Lin Yuan to tell him that the Son of the Oath had been replaced by someone. At this moment, he had an unsatisfied look on his face, wondering whether he should add variables to the matter to make things more interesting.

The butler named Xin who was standing nearby tried to stop him, saying, "Please don't do this, Master. If you provoke the Magician Association and Mr. Lin Yuan at the same time, I don't think you can get away with it, so please think twice."

This man named Xin is the same person as Alice's butler, so the true identity of the client is obvious. It was Alice Barnsday who had accidentally noticed Lin Yuan and witnessed the entire process of him destroying God's Workshop.

The posture of the young girl at this time was a magic disguise she used to hide her identity. In response to Xin's dissuasion, Alice said with a smile: "OK, Xin, as punishment for dissuasion, when you go back, I want you to perform drinking chili water with your nose to please me."

In response, Xin smiled and said, "Then please go back and talk about it, Master. Now that the matter is over, please leave as soon as possible. After all, if we continue to stay here, it may increase the possibility of us being discovered."

After hearing the suggestion from her own puppet, Alice thought it made sense. When she was about to speak, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind them.

"Your suggestion is correct, but now it should be more accurate to change 'maybe' to 'already' discovered."

"Who?"

Hearing this sudden voice, Xin immediately turned around and subconsciously put on a alert posture. On the contrary, the boy disguised as Alice showed a playful smile, turned around and said happily.

"I didn't expect that. How did you find this place, Lin Yuan?"

Alice turned around and it was Lin Yuan who appeared in her sight. He was wearing a helmet and holding a black box in his hand, which was connected by a line.

This is the device that Lin Yuan uses to control the puppet's body. Logically speaking, while wearing this device, Lin Yuan himself should be unable to move, and his consciousness will also be transferred to the puppet's body.

The answer is very simple. It is simply that Lin Yuan's mental power is too strong and he can do many things at the same time. After sharing memories with his selves in other worlds in the foggy space many times, Lin Yuan's mental power has reached a level beyond anyone's imagination.

Even when the puppet's body was being manipulated by the distraction, the main body was able to move without being affected. Then, with the wide-area observation capability brought by the "Sky Eye", he finally found Alice who was hiding aside and watching the show.

Lin Yuan took off his helmet and threw it into the storage bag along with the device in his hand. He then said to Alice, who was disguised as a teenager, "This should be the first time we have met face to face. Should I say it is our first meeting, unknown client?"

"Hahaha, you are really interesting, Lin Yuan." Alice was not annoyed about being found. Instead, she found it more and more interesting. At the same time, Alice was very curious why Lin Yuan guessed that she would hide aside and watch the show.

Otherwise, even with the wide-area observation capability brought by the Sky Eye, it would be very troublesome to explore the surroundings here. If they were not sure enough, ordinary people would not take such action. Alice asked Lin Yuan directly without any concealment, and Lin Yuan answered straightforwardly.

"It's simple. The reason I was able to rescue those children was because of your specific commission. Although we only talked for a short while, it was enough for me to see that you are the type of person who doesn't care whether things succeed or fail as long as you find it interesting. As the one who did it, you must have found a way to enjoy the whole process. Am I right?"

"Hahahahaha!"

As Lin Yuan said this, Alice let out a crisp, joyful laugh.

"Right, right, that's right. As long as it makes me feel interesting, success or failure doesn't matter. I didn't expect that you could figure out my personality after just a few words. It's really surprising. So what happened after you successfully found me? Did you just show off your guess?"

As Alice said this, Xin on the side began to tense up, ready to attack at any time, and Lin Yuan did not disappoint her and spoke.

"How is that possible? Although I was able to rescue those children because of you, one thing is for another. Now I really want to pay you back for the way you played me."

As he spoke, Lin Yuan also tensed up, ready to take action at any time.

When Alice heard Lin Yuan's words, her smile became even brighter, and she said in a joyful tone: "Oh, don't be so stingy. After all, it is a fact that those children were saved because of this. But since you insist so much, there is nothing I can do... So can I ask you, Xin?"

"Yes, Master."

Xin, who had been prepared, responded instantly after hearing Alice's words. He exerted force with his feet and left an obvious footprint on the ground. Under the reaction force, Xin's body turned into a gust of wind and instantly rushed in front of Lin Yuan.

A jab with a sharp sound of breaking through the air blasted towards Lin Yuan's head. The power of this punch was enough to shatter rocks of the same volume, not to mention the human body which was more fragile in comparison. However, Xin did not show any relaxation, because the opponent was not an opponent who could be dealt with in this way.

Just as Xin expected, Lin Yuan dodged the swift jab by lowering his head instantly, and at the same time, he retaliated equally, also with a jab towards Xin's abdomen.

Xin reacted instantly when he saw this, stretched out his other hand, and blocked the jab with his palm.

"boom--!"

The moment the palm and fist touched, a low sound like the strike of a war hammer was heard. The unexpectedly huge force made Xin unable to react for a moment. He was knocked back by this force and took five or six steps back before he completely eliminated this force.

The first fight ended with Lin Yuan showing a slight advantage in fighting ability, enough to rival or even suppress the automatons.
