Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 1290 - 1284: Exploding Body

Compared to Ronald speeding down from the sky,

Catherine, who was also on the ground, was evidently closer to the fire element, maintaining a graceful posture as she approached.

She held a pitch-black longsword in one hand, her gaze confident with a hint of amusement. Her silhouette didn't resemble a warrior ready for battle, but rather a dancer about to take the stage.

"Ronald, make sure you've got this."

At that moment, Catherine addressed Ronald above her with a reminder.

Then she exerted force with her feet, and with the longsword in hand, Catherine displayed her exaggerated strength. In just two leaps, she reached the fire element, which had just begun to float again.

Gazing at her panicked and helpless opponent, Catherine's tone was mocking:

"Stop struggling, you fool."

"Your body was created by me; everything is already destined. Rather than dying painfully, why not just give up now?"

As she spoke these intimidating words, the pitch-black Saint Catherine's sword slashed downward in front of the fire element.

Under Catherine's control, a series of fierce sword strikes descended like a rainstorm, giving the fire element no chance to counterattack, directly forcing him to retreat continuously!

While swinging her sword, Catherine began to chant loudly:

"I looked at my notes and wasn't satisfied with the content. I stayed at the American Robot Company for three days, and the results weren't better than just staying home and consulting the Earth Encyclopedia."

The fire element, suppressed by Catherine's assault, couldn't stop her from spellcasting.

Thus, the wondrous spells from the "Galactic Empire" series manifested powerful and unique forces in Catherine's hands, immediately enveloping the longsword she wielded.

Catherine had also witnessed the Fire Element Demigod's sanctum just now.

Hence she chose this spell.

Compared to the at-ease Catherine, the fire element was now both serious and tense—because he knew he was in big trouble.

This was different from the spear that Ronald had thrown earlier.

When magic forms a spell with incantations, Catherine's spell didn't create any entity; it merely lodged the power within the longsword.

This form happened to be the type that wasn't disrupted by his sanctum.

Thus, the biggest problem arose.

The fire element's attack methods, the strong types, were mostly gathered within magical attacks. The sanctum he opened to protect himself from Ronald's attack simultaneously nullified his most threatening attack methods at present.

And in terms of actual physical strength...

As an elemental being, the fire element's combat skills and physical strength were nowhere near a match for the two humans, Ronald and Catherine!

Shing—

The pitch-black sword blade flashed through the air.

Catherine's merciless strike landed on the Fire Element Demigod with no surprises.

In an instant, the magically transformed sword produced immediate effects.

The original spell brought new power to the Saint Catherine's sword.

When the blade cut through the flames on the fire element's surface and touched its mechanical body, the fire element's body, created by Catherine, began violently resonating with the force contained in this slash.

Crack—

A sound of shattering echoed.

Not only at the sword's point of impact, but the body immediately cracked open, with even other parts of the fire element's body trembling simultaneously. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The fire element's state was extremely unstable at this moment.

The two forces of the same origin resisted the master's will within him, causing him to verge on collapsing on the spot.

Thanks to the fusion of divinity within him, the fire element barely managed to control his body, avoiding immediate collapse.

"The 'First Galactic Empire' has a history of over ten thousand years, with every planet in the galaxy under its centralized control!"

At this moment, Catherine continued to chant the incantations.

She was using the dominion spell that had intervened once before with the fire element.

And in this situation, the fire element was already heavily disrupted, caught in extreme instability. The dominion spell force instantly broke the balance he was maintaining!

Crk crk crk—

Amidst the conflict between magic and body, the fire element's mechanical body suddenly expanded several times over!

The expanding body even directly slammed into Catherine's face, forcing her to step back and lose balance. It was only by stabilizing her longsword on the ground that she didn't continue retreating.

But even so, the girl's face bore a smile of success.

Catherine's objective was achieved.

Looking closely at the fire element now, you would find that it wasn't a matter of size increase, but rather his mechanical body had split into countless pieces, then exploded outward!

Yet, due to the fire element's inherent ability, these metallic fragments remained constrained.

Thus, his body was bound within a certain range,

and didn't explode outright!

Simultaneously, Ronald from high above also arrived directly above the fire element.

With his powerful eyesight, he could clearly witness the scene inside the soon-to-explode fire element body.

At the center of countless fractured metal pieces, there was a core filled with powerful spells.

Divinity, magic power, and everything of the fire element converged into this luminous high-temperature fireball.

Destroying this core,

was Ronald and Catherine's ultimate aim in this battle.

As long as this core was destroyed, the fire element in front would immediately meet his end. The divinity symbolizing power, yet harboring danger, would dissipate entirely within the [Infinite Negative Domain]!

"..."

The fire element struggled to reorganize his body.

The power of divinity eroded the influence of Catherine's original spell on him. Those shattered metallic pieces were gradually pulled inward by the core's powers, merging with each other to complete bodily reconstruction.

If undisturbed,

then within half a minute, the fire element could rely on divinity to repair his bodily issues!

Moreover, the sanctum he created ceaselessly absorbed magic power from the surrounding environment, providing him energy. It wouldn't take long to recover to a mighty state.

No way they'd let this guy have a chance to recover!

Seeing this situation, Ronald unhesitatingly darted down!

Although diving into the fire element's body would inevitably pose the risk of being squeezed into the magic core,

Ronald understood as well.

This was the perfect opportunity Catherine had created and reminded him to seize.

Within the light,

Ronald charged directly into the Fire Element Demigod's body.

Then, he clenched his right fist, mustering all the strength he could, and aimed at the luminous core in front, striking it with all his might!
