With a violent collision, a crack appeared on the rock, and it quickly spread. Finally, the rock was shattered by two Electro elemental cubes, turning into powder.
Seeing this, Ying immediately used Electro to accelerate herself, running back under the Ruin machine, dodging the Electro-charged rain, and instantly leaping up. She condensed a powerful Anemo Vortex Sword and smashed it onto the Ruin machine's head.
The next second…
With a tremendous impact, the entire body of the Ruin machine was sent flying backward. If it hadn't been for the Scaramouche's desperate control, the Ruin machine would have fallen to the ground.
Although it only scratched the mecha's face and caused no damage, it didn't stop Ying from mocking.
"What? Is that all a god can do?"
"You dare..."
Scaramouche snorted, and a burst of violent current transmitted from within the mecha, quickly forming dozens of incredibly thick arc chains that attacked towards Ying's location.
Ying instinctively wanted to dodge, but the accumulated fatigue prevented her body from reacting in time. In the blink of an eye, she was entangled by dozens of arc chains around her feet, waist, and arms.
A numbing sensation instantly spread through her body. Feeling the paralysis and pain from the current, Ying couldn't help but gasp. Suppressing the urge to cry out, she hurriedly tried to break free from the restraints.
However, before Ying could exert any force, the Ruin machine swung its arm again, dragging Ying directly into mid-air.
Scaramouche gave Ying no time to react. The next second, he raised his right fist and punched towards Ying without mercy.
A dull thud echoed out, and Ying was instantly blasted into a wall pillar. Then, her petite and delicate body, like a rag doll, was fiercely thrown to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Pfft!"
As soon as she landed, Ying spat out a mouthful of blood.
Panting heavily, Ying felt an unbearable pain all over her body, as if her bones were about to break. A sense of weakness instantly enveloped her, and she was even losing the strength to move.
A series of coughs rang out, and blood overflowed from the corner of Ying's mouth. With the violent coughing, her lungs felt like they were burning, as if on fire.
Seeing that Ying was unable to get up for a long time, Scaramouche couldn't help but chuckle.
"Heh..."
"This is the power of a god. The gap between mortals and gods is like that between a firefly and the bright moon. How can a mere firefly contend with the bright moon?"
Indifferent words slowly came out. Scaramouche looked down at the fallen Ying from above, appearing confident of victory.
"Firefly... Bright moon... Heh..."
After recovering a little, Ying gritted her teeth and stood up with difficulty. She looked up at Scaramouche and said with effort.
"So what if it's the bright moon? Houyi could still shoot down the sun..."
"Since you, a clown, want to compare yourself to the bright moon, then I'll be Houyi for a day."
Saying this, Ying narrowed her eyes, stared intently at the mecha in front of her, and said with a smile.
"Remember you just said I wasn't qualified to see gods and didn't know their power?"
"I'm sorry, I have indeed seen it. However, the power she displayed at that time was far more powerful than your mecha, which can only be activated by relying on the Gnosis. In my eyes, you are, at best, a false god."
"And today, a false god who has just been born will quickly fall at the hands of a mortal, as you put it."
As the words fell, Ying immediately let out an angry roar and flew up. Her entire body was instantly enveloped by a large amount of Geo elemental energy, and she fiercely kicked towards the core of the Ruin machine.
With a bang!
A violent explosion suddenly erupted, accompanied by a powerful shockwave that swept through the surroundings. The entire seventh layer trembled.
The next second.
The Ruin machine's body trembled violently, and like a cannonball, it was sent flying backward from the smoke, directly crashing into a distant stone pillar.
With a crackling sound, dense, fine cracks appeared on its shell.
Ying flipped over and landed steadily on the ground. She glanced thoughtfully at the Ruin machine, which she had kicked against the pillar in the distance.
"If I'm not mistaken, that circular part should be where the Gnosis is stored..."
?!!
Although the voice was not loud, Scaramouche clearly heard Ying's words. His expression immediately changed, and a hint of gloom appeared.
How dare she have designs on his Gnosis! She must be killed, at all costs...
Thinking this, a gloomy look appeared on Scaramouche's face. Looking at Ying, who was about to attack again, he directly clenched his hand, and a huge tornado instantly rose from beneath Ying's feet, lifting her into the sky.
"Whoa?!"
Ying couldn't help but exclaim, but she didn't panic due to being hit. First, she spread her Wind Glider to stabilize her body, then condensed Anemo elemental energy under her feet and jumped directly out of the tornado's range.
Ying let out a slight sigh of relief. After assessing her condition and remaining elemental energy, she relaxed a little. Looking at the Ruin machine trying to climb out of the stone pillar, her eyes became sharp again.
The accumulated fatigue had already made it difficult for her to cope. If she were to be hit a few more times, her body would likely be unable to withstand it and she would faint directly...
It seems I need to finish this quickly...
A sharp whistle suddenly sounded. In an instant, Ying's afterimage pierced through space and directly arrived above the Ruin machine.
"Have another big dumpling!"
Following Ying's angry roar, an emerald green energy ball, several times larger than before, instantly appeared from her palm and shot towards the Ruin machine below.
The Anemo Vortex Sword appeared with visible terrifying power, instantly surrounding the Ruin machine and relentlessly spinning and crushing it.
Within moments, the floor beneath the Ruin machine could no longer withstand the immense power of the Anemo Vortex Sword and was directly shattered.
"Yay!!"
Seeing Scaramouche and his Ruin machine fall to the ground below, Paimon happily did a somersault in the air, smiling and saying to the nearby Nahida.
"Hehe~ I knew Scaramouche, that idiot, wasn't Ying's match."
Nahida returned a smile to Paimon, but as she looked at the screen, her expression quickly turned serious again.
That Ruin machine was definitely not as simple as it appeared, nor was it the Doctor's trump card...
Ying, you must hold on. I will definitely uncover the Doctor's conspiracy and stop him...
