163: Victory in battle! Gold-tier treasure chest!
Even as he spoke, a chilling killing intent suddenly radiated from Lin Yuan's body.
Even Fang Liang and Qian Chuan, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but shudder.
In the next second, Lin Yuan charged forward like a heavy truck!
And right then, a circle of greenish runes suddenly appeared on Lin Yuan's body!
This was Lin Yuan's beast god weapon, the [Wind Spirit Rune]!
Under the enhancement of the [Wind Spirit Rune], Lin Yuan's speed suddenly surged!
Under the dual explosion of power and speed, the jellyfish tentacles that had been wrapped around Lin Yuan's body were forcefully snapped!
The intense pain made Fang Liang let out a wail in spite of himself!
Lin Yuan proved through his actions that in the face of absolute power, any trickery was futile!
However, Lin Yuan's target remained unchanged; it was still that Three-Headed Flame Hound!
"Roar!!"
Accompanied by a roar, the Three-Headed Flame Hound raised its heads high, continuously condensing scorching flame bullets in its mouths and firing them one after another towards Lin Yuan!
However, to its surprise, Lin Yuan didn't dodge or retreat, charging straight at it while tanking the flame bullets!
"Boom boom boom—"
The flame bullets struck Lin Yuan's scales one after another, creating a series of booming sounds!
But Lin Yuan's speed didn't decrease at all!
It was as if the Three-Headed Flame Hound's attacks had no effect on him whatsoever!
As the smoke cleared, Lin Yuan's beastly silhouette, like a demon god, suddenly lunged forward and appeared before the Three-Headed Flame Hound!
At this moment, a hint of fear finally flashed in the eyes of this extremely fierce mutated beast!
Because... the shadow of death had already loomed over it!
"It's time to end this."
With cold eyes, Lin Yuan opened his massive maw, gathering scorching Atomic Nucleus Energy within it!
"Boom!!"
White Heat Ray!!
The White Heat Ray, several times hotter than the flame explosions, instantly pierced through the body of the Three-Headed Flame Hound!!
The latter didn't even have time to let out a wail before dying at Lin Yuan's hands.
Just then, two consecutive System notifications rang in Lin Yuan's ears.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully defeating a Beast King Level Beast Soul Master. Reward: gold treasure chest x1!"
"Congratulations to the host for successfully defeating a Beast King Level mutated beast. Reward: gold treasure chest x1!"
Upon hearing the System notifications, a smile couldn't help but appear on Lin Yuan's face.
He had to admit, his luck was quite good.
Both victories had actually granted him treasure chest rewards.
However, Lin Yuan was in no hurry to open the chests. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Fang Liang and Qian Chuan.
"Are you going to forfeit on your own, or do you want me to help you?"
Hearing this, both Qian Chuan and Fang Liang shuddered and hurriedly said, "I... we'll forfeit on our own!"
Without any hesitation, both of them pressed the distress button on their wristwatches.
This meant they had lost the right to continue participating in this Survival Battle.
Then, without hesitating, Lin Yuan walked straight to the corpse of the Three-Headed Flame Hound, used his Beast Claw to cut open its head, and successfully found a crimson crystal core in the middle head.
This was his loot, and Lin Yuan naturally wouldn't miss out on it.
In the interval while Lin Yuan was killing the Three-Headed Flame Hound, Su Muxue had also finished off the already heavily injured Ink Poison Demon Toad.
In a short span of time, these three beasts had died one after another at the hands of Lin Yuan and Su Muxue.
After obtaining the crystal cores of the Ink Poison Demon Toad and the Nether Spirit Cat, Lin Yuan immediately said to Su Muxue, "Let's go, let's leave this place."
"Okay."
Su Muxue nodded and then asked, "Where to?"
Lin Yuan replied, "To find Wang Jinze."
"That guy's strength is even weaker than Song Lan's. If we don't find him quickly, he'll likely be eliminated."
Although Song Lan has a Support-type Beast Soul, he still possesses some combat ability; even if he can't win, he can find a way to escape.
Moreover, as long as he can regroup with his teammates, Song Lan can fulfill his role.
But Wang Jinze is different. Not only is he not strong, but Lin Yuan doesn't even know what his beast soul is yet.
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Muxue's eyes. "That's true, but... do you know where he is?"
Lin Yuan nodded and said, "If he didn't run around blindly after getting off the bus, I should still be able to find him."
A look of astonishment flashed in Su Muxue's eyes. "How do you know?"
"While on the bus, I already memorized the approximate location where he got off."
Lin Yuan pointed to his head and said with a light laugh, "Otherwise, how did you think I found you?"
Hearing this, a blush couldn't help but flash across Su Muxue's face.
She had said she would protect Lin Yuan, but unexpectedly, she had been saved by him once again.
Furthermore, the strength Lin Yuan displayed had greatly exceeded her expectations.
Su Muxue followed behind Lin Yuan and asked curiously, "What is your actual strength now?"
"Strength?"
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, then calmly replied, "Probably... around the Middle Stage of Beast King Level Eight Star."
"Hiss..."
Su Muxue's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but gasp.
No wonder Lin Yuan could easily crush Xiao Han and the others; it turned out his strength had already reached a level comparable to Chen Longxiang's!
Then, Su Muxue couldn't help but ask, "How on earth did you do it?"
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Didn't I soak in the medicinal bath pool just like you guys?"
"But..."
Su Muxue originally wanted to say that at that time, Lin Yuan clearly only had the strength of a Beast King Rank Six Star!
However, before she could say it, she realized, "Were you intentionally hiding your strength back then?"
"It's not a good thing to let others know your full strength."
Lin Yuan said calmly, "Besides, I'm just a substitute; there's no need to show off so deliberately."
Hearing Lin Yuan's explanation, Su Muxue was momentarily stunned, then couldn't help but shudder.
Xiao Han and the other two probably would never have imagined that the one who easily defeated them was merely a substitute from Modu Beast University.
One could only say... anyone who truly treats Lin Yuan as a mere substitute is bound to run into big trouble.
