I rely on myself

Chapter 779 The Perfect Beast
'An apparition? A clone? Or something else?'

Arthur subconsciously thought this as he felt the air in his hands, but this was not the point now.

Astrid, who Arthur thought was an illusion, suddenly laughed and stretched out her hands towards Arthur and Karna. Seeing this scene, Arthur and Karna instantly had a bad premonition. Without any hesitation, they quickly put away their weapons and dodged to the side.

Almost at the moment when Arthur and Karna dodged, a thick purple-black miasma was released from Astrid's palm and instantly enveloped a large area in front of her. Wherever the miasma went, whether it was the grass or the land, it was instantly corroded and quickly dissipated.

Although in theory miasma is the air of death and only has an effect on living objects, that is, organic matter, it is so dense that it can corrode even inorganic matter such as soil.

Even Arthur and Karna who had managed to dodge couldn't help but feel frightened when seeing this scene. If they were hit by such a blow without any preparation, they would definitely not feel good, so they immediately stopped holding back.

"Drink!" x2
Arthur and Karna both directly unleashed their own magic power and injected it into their weapons. In an instant, the light of the holy sword and the solar flame of the divine spear bloomed one after another at this moment.

Faced with the light of the holy sword and the solar flame of the divine spear, the miasma was instantly evaporated as quickly as ice exposed to the sun, and Astrid also showed an expression of disgust.

Seeing that the miasma was successfully resolved, Arthur and Karna did not miss this opportunity. They immediately rushed to Astrid again and swung their weapons at her.

This time, Astrid didn't dare to rely on that unknown means to take the attack head-on, and shouted, "Perfect Beast!"

"Roar----!"

Following Astrid's shout, the lion puppet, which had been silent before, responded instantly, and the huge fluctuation of magic power was particularly obvious at this moment.

While Arthur and Karna continued to attack, the other side also became alert, ready to react and change tactics in an instant.

Without any warning, Astrid's figure instantly disappeared from the sight of Arthur and Karna, along with her demon eagle doll and lion doll.

"————?!" x3
This scene was too sudden for anyone to react, but before Lin Yuan could use detection magic to look for Astrid, he suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air from behind him.

Before he could fully react, a chill inexplicably rushed from the soles of his feet straight to his head. It was a completely instinctive reaction of his body. Lin Yuan quickly cast magic defense and deployed a defensive barrier behind him.

Almost at the same time as the defensive barrier was deployed, a sharp claw with a sharp sound of breaking through the air landed on the barrier with a 'bang' sound.

Although it seemed that the barrier easily blocked the claw, Lin Yuan, as the caster, was very clear about the power of this claw. The power of this claw itself was enough to easily break steel, coupled with the sharpness of the claw itself.

If he had not reacted just now, even if Lin Yuan was very confident in his physical fitness, he would have been ripped open.

Because of this, Lin Yuan was very fortunate, and at the same time he quickly turned around to see who was attacking him.

It was the lion puppet that suddenly disappeared, as well as Astrid and another demon eagle puppet.

Astrid was clearly unhappy when she saw Lin Yuan successfully block the attack. Lin Yuan did not dare to relax at all when watching this scene, and quickly shouted, "Karna!"

"!!!"

Hearing Lin Yuan's shout, Karna turned around and saw Astrid and her two puppets behind Lin Yuan. The moment he saw this scene, Karna immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant, and immediately turned the spear in his hand, pointed the tip of the spear at Astrid, and injected a large amount of magic power, turning it into a magic ray containing the light and heat of the sun and shooting straight at her.

Faced with this attack, Astrid naturally would not take it head-on. She activated the ability of the perfect beast again. Suddenly, once again without any warning, Astrid and her two dolls disappeared again.

When Lin Yuan found them again, they had already moved a long distance away from each other.

While watching Astrid on guard, Lin Yuan was also thinking about what the magic circuit equipped by the perfect beast was.

"Space transfer... No! No, that's not space transfer magic. There was nothing strange about the space when the lion puppet activated its ability, so it shouldn't be that."

Seeing Astrid's disappearing figure, Lin Yuan's first thought was a magic of the 'space transfer' type, but he quickly overturned this idea.

After all, with the ability of mind's eye, he can even see changes in the microscopic world, so naturally he would not mistake the signs left by space magic.

The fact is that no matter the first time when he dodged the attacks of Arthur and Karna, or the time when he failed to launch a sneak attack on Lin Yuan and kept a distance from him, there was no trace of any space magic in his disappearance both times.

"We don't have enough information yet. We need to test him a few more times before we can see what ability he is using."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan said to Arthur and Karna without any hesitation: "Arthur, Karna, I can't see through the other party's methods. Please try a few more times to see if you can find out anything."

"no problem."

"Leave it to us. Master, watch out for sneak attacks."

Arthur and Karna naturally would not refuse Lin Yuan's request. They responded and reminded Lin Yuan to be aware of the possibility of a sneak attack from the other party. Then, without any hesitation, they rushed directly towards Astrid.

Astrid was naturally unwilling to be outdone and launched a counterattack.

"Perfect beast!"

Once again, without any warning, Astrid and her two dolls disappeared, and when they reappeared they were already on Karna's side.

Without any warning, the moment Karna noticed the other party's figure, the sharp claws of the perfect beast had already swung down, and would land on his chest in the next moment.

Even in this situation, Karna reacted without even thinking. His body instinctively raised his spear and blocked the sharp claws of the perfect beast at the last moment.

"clang!"

With a loud bang like the collision of metal, the sharp claws of the perfect beast successfully blocked Karna, but before Karna could take the opportunity to launch a counterattack, the figure of the perfect beast disappeared again without any warning.
