I rely on myself

Chapter 226 Persistence
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another two weeks have passed. In a few days, the new year will arrive.

Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in his heart, because time was running out and he had to complete all preparations for the secret ceremony before the New Year, including site preparation, ritual utensils, and ritual description, among other tasks.

In addition to this, he also had to play hide-and-seek with the Marquis of Vauban to distract their attention so that the great secret ritual he had arranged would not be discovered. It can be said that he was quite busy.

Russia is located in the northern part of Eurasia, spanning two continents, Europe and Asia. With a land area of ​​1707.54 square kilometers, it is the largest country in the world.

Although it has the largest land area, Russia has a population of only over 100 million. It is a typical country with a small population and a large land area, and many places are deserted.

It was for this reason that Lin Yuan chose Russia as the location for his secret ceremony. After all, this way he wouldn't have to worry about affecting others or being disturbed by others.

In this vast and sparsely populated area, it is very easy to find a place suitable for setting up the great secret ceremony.

The northeastern tundra zone is the most sparsely populated place in Russia, and Lin Yuan’s temporary base is here.

In a hidden cave, although there is no sunlight, it is still well ventilated.

At this moment, a light suddenly appeared in the cave. It was the light of magic, emitted from a magic circle on the ground. Soon the light reached its peak and was so dazzling that people could not look directly at it.

Just as everything that rises must decline, it began to weaken. A figure appeared in the magic circle at some point, and this person was none other than Lin Yuan.

He just opened his eyes. Because he was in a cave and there was no sunlight, there was of course no light and naturally he could not see anything. However, Lin Yuan acted very naturally.

He walked out of the magic circle skillfully, stepped to a wall, and walked just in front of it with mechanical precision, then reached out and pressed a button.

Suddenly a light appeared, illuminating the entire cave. It was the light made by humans.

There were some daily necessities and even a simple wooden bed placed in the cave. It was obvious that these things were placed here by Lin Yuan, and this was also Lin Yuan's temporary base.

Lin Yuan walked to a table with a tired look on his face, picked up the kettle on the table, and instead of picking up the cup, poured the water directly into his own mouth.

After taking a few big gulps of water, Lin Yuan put down the kettle, walked to a chair with a reclining back, and slumped down on it. He looked as if he was burnt out, and exuded a smell like that of salted fish.

"That's enough. How persistent is that old guy? Aren't you a godslayer? Go find the God of Disobedience. What on earth do you want to do by looking for a young man like me? If I hadn't prepared a way to escape in advance, I would have been caught. I curse you, old bastard, to have hair on your food, choke when you drink water, and fall down when you walk..."

A series of resentful and childish words came out of Lin Yuan's mouth, who looked miserable and slumped in a chair, giving people a funny feeling.

Although he had long known that the so-called kings and the so-called godslayers were all very strong-willed guys, it was only after he had truly experienced them that Lin Yuan realized how difficult they were. To be honest, over the past two weeks, Lin Yuan had deliberately shown up in different places many times to attract the other party's attention, and the other party had indeed sent out his subordinates every time to try to capture him, and even had the other party take action himself.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan had prepared for this in advance, and every time he escaped before the other party arrived, he used high-level magic such as space transfer.

Normally speaking, a normal person would give up after being escaped by Lin Yuan so many times, or even if not, he would become passive and lazy, but the other party would not do that.

Every time the other party would try their best to come. Looking at the interested smile of Marquis Vauban, it can be seen that the other party was not discouraged at all. He would even try every means to catch Lin Yuan. Therefore, Lin Yuan was exhausted.

And this time was the most thrilling one. Lin Yuan had just taken action for a short time when Marquis Woban arrived. Of course, Lin Yuan immediately wanted to use space transfer to escape.

But after so many times, even a fool would be on guard, let alone a being like the God Slayer who has amazing intuition.

Marquis Vauban had already sent out the magicians from his servants of death to stand by nearby, and when Lin Yuan wanted to use the space transfer magic, he asked them to stop him immediately.

As a result, a huge barrier rose up and the surrounding space was completely locked, so Lin Yuan's spatial transfer naturally could not be carried out.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan had anticipated this situation. After all, he did not expect that he could escape from the God Slayer just by relying on a space transfer.

Otherwise, the godslayers would not be called kings, and people would not say that no one on earth can resist them.

The moment the magic failed, Lin Yuan immediately ran away. There was no possibility of a head-on confrontation. After all, he was lucky enough to escape because he took advantage of the opponent's carelessness.

This time, the opponent would definitely not be careless and would definitely take action himself, so Lin Yuan did not dare to get too close to the opponent and always maintained a distance of at least one thousand meters.

Then, while escaping, he was also trying to find a way to break the space blockade. Finally, with his superb magical ability, he successfully broke the space blockade. Then, without hesitation, he immediately initiated a space transfer and returned to this temporary base.

Although Lin Yuan did not use any magic during his first encounter with Marquis Vauban, it does not mean that Lin Yuan's magic skills are poor. It's just that the situation at that time was not suitable.

After all, how could Lin Yuan be able to design a great mystery comparable to the 'myth' that has been blocking the gods from ancient times to the present without sufficient or even superb magic skills?

But the situation at that time was not suitable. After all, the enemies at that time were wolves and servants of death. The wolves were of course the products of power, and the knights and magicians of the servants of death were all great knights and famous magicians in their lifetime, so ordinary magic was completely ineffective against them.

As for magic with sufficient power, it requires time to chant spells or draw magic circles, which was not suitable for the rapid battle rhythm at that time, so Lin Yuan did not use it.
