Chapter 1240: Chapter 554 Wind Erosion Valley
Somewhere outside the Abyss, the colossal shadow of the God of Order towered mightily.
Facing the Titan, the small-statured mechanical being maintained a combat stance, repeatedly charging toward the Titan, making the contrast between them seem like an egg striking a rock.
Although the mechanical being was small, its movements were excessively agile. Besides its basic Agility Value, its joints seemed to be equipped with instant acceleration components, which enabled it to match the speed of the Divine Skin and even slightly surpass it.
Additionally, the mechanical being could generate an attack similar to a laser cannon from its mouth and arms, its power comparable to a cannon!
Knowing that the cannon on the Mechanical Armor Skin was an orange component, one could see how high-end the mechanical being’s configurations were.
Mu You kept his eyes on the approaching mechanical being, timing his punch perfectly to hit the mechanical being along its flight path.
As the mechanical being dodged, he immediately changed his attack direction, attempting to strike with his knee.
The mechanical being easily dodged again and circled to the back to attack the Divine Skin.
"Boom!"
A surge of energy burst from the mouth of the mechanical being, hitting the back of the Divine Skin. Although it didn’t penetrate the defenses of the Divine Skin, it left scorch marks on the ghostly shadow.
"Back defensive power assessment... unable to assess, beyond attack range, continue to switch attack targets..."
The mechanical being’s electronic voice still echoed as it instantaneously moved again, reappearing above the Titan’s head.
The surging energy once again gathered in its mouth, but this time, the Titan, as if foreseeing the attack, stretched out his hand and grabbed the mechanical being’s ankle the moment it appeared, slamming it down forcefully.
"Boom!"
In a louder crash than before, the mechanical being was smashed into the ground, shattered pitifully.
However, no sooner had Mu You retracted his hand than, in less than half a second, the nearly shattered mechanical being restored itself to its original state, leaping out of the pit and resuming its combat stance.
Mu You frowned, wondering if the recovery speed of this creature was getting faster.
As he thought this, the mechanical being charged once more, lively as a dragon, but after a few moves, it was flattened by the Divine Skin again.
Yet, the mechanical being, like an indestructible cockroach, kept breaking and restoring, launching suicidal attacks like a moth to a flame.
"This way won’t work..."
After sending the mechanical being flying once again, Mu You commanded the Divine Skin to retreat, pausing the attack.
Despite apparently having the upper hand, with the opponent only dying and reviving under his blows without ever injuring him,
the Divine Skin was time-limited and would eventually disappear, while the opponent’s health bar seemed endless.
Being worn down by such a kamikaze tactic meant that he would ultimately be the first to falter.
Moreover, both he and the Medicinal Plant Gatherer were nearly drained of Magic Power, and the dizziness from the Magic Power backlash was continuously affecting their Combat Power.
Since its appearance, the mechanical being had been rapidly absorbing the Magic Power from their bodies and the Crystal, with the replenishment speed of Magic Power totally unable to keep up with its consumption rate. Thus, less than half a minute into the fight, both of them reached a state of completely depleted Magic Power, which persisted until now.
"This thing seems really able to resurrect indefinitely, but its repairs must require energy, and energy can’t come from nowhere..." said the Medicinal Plant Gatherer.
"Are you saying that the energy powering its endless revivals is drawn from the surrounding environmental magic?" asked Mu You.
"I can’t think of any other explanation," responded the Medicinal Plant Gatherer.
If the energy were sourced from some component within the body of the opponent, it would be like a dry cell, bound to run out eventually.
But now, its energy seemed inexhaustible, as if connected to a ’charging cable,’ continuously drawing energy from outside.
Together with their Magic Power loss, the only explanation was that the opponent was ceaselessly absorbing Magic Power from the environment.
"So, to defeat it, we first need to cut off its energy source..."
Mu You pondered, meaning they needed to find a Magic Power-free place as the battlefield to potentially stop its revival.
However, the Star Spirit World came into existence because of Magic Power, while Earth, just a wall away, had also been saturated with Magic Power.
Magic Power wasn’t a gas but an invisible energy, pervasive everywhere; theoretically, neither of these worlds could have areas completely devoid of Magic Power.
The only places truly untainted by Magic Power were in the Titan World, yet those places weren’t accessible to Star Spirit World beings, and they couldn’t possibly send non-Fool beings to the God World regardless of their will.
Therein lay the conundrum.
"Perhaps, there is one place..." the Medicinal Plant Gatherer suddenly spoke.
"Where?" Mu You punched the charging mechanical being away again and asked during the pause.
"The desert..."
"Ah? You mean..."
With their memories linked, Mu You also quickly came to the realization after the Medicinal Plant Gatherer’s hint.
He had once passed through a place named ’Wind Erosion Valley’ during a mission in the desert.
This area, located in the heart of the desert and with its unique revolving structure, was constantly covered by strong winds. The concentration of the Wind Element here was so rich it wasn’t an exaggeration to call it the most abundant place in the entire Star Spirit World.
