Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

The vibration when the knight mecha landed caused the ground to crack, and the energy patterns on the silver-white armor lit up with a blazing red light. The girl drove the mecha and swung the long sword in her hand with a blade like a battle axe, sweeping across the group of machines, and forcibly split the machine that bound Clara in half.

"How are you, Clara? Are you okay?" asked the girl sitting in the mecha.

"Grayshus, is that you?" Clara supported her injured body and slowly got up from the ground.

"Well, when I heard the alarm and the order from Mr. Tianhao, I knew you would definitely act recklessly. Now you can rest assured that I am here." Grayxiu controlled the mecha to turn the hilt of the sword.

"Of course, there's more than just Grayshu."

Hearing the sound, Clara looked up into the sky again, only to see the hotel manager Mona wearing a dark blue witch costume, floating in the air riding a magic book.

"Manager Mona is here too?" she asked in surprise.

Mona nodded. "Of course. I'm his student after all. Besides, if I let these idiots run amok in the city, I won't be able to open my shop."

"That's right, so leave it to us from now on!" said Grayshu.

"No, I can still fight!"

Clara slowly stood up and pulled out a syringe filled with blood-red liquid. She closed her eyes and plunged the needle into her left arm. A moment later, the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This is... a high-level full-recovery potion from the Academy of Sciences! How can you actually afford this?" Grayshu asked in surprise.

"It was given to me by Long Tianhao. I've been reluctant to use it because it's too expensive." Clara moved her shoulders. The dull pain from the collision just now completely disappeared, and her eyes became sharp again. "I was originally worried that I might not be able to handle it alone, but now I can give it a try!"

"Mr. Swarlow!"

"Understood. Execute the order and begin the final support plan!"

Clara opened her arms, and the armor quickly covered her entire body. She and Gresh stood together, the armor and the mecha almost flush with each other. In the eyes of everyone, they looked like two guardian statues standing side by side.

"Let's go together!"

"Okay!" Grayshu responded by controlling the mecha, and the two swords stirred up air waves to disperse all the mechanical groups rushing into the front.

……

In the North District, Mona was holding two guns and walking among the robots with dignity.

Four muskets were floating in the air. Each shot accurately hit the core of the machine as she moved. The crisp sound of bullets penetrating metal came one after another. She tapped the wreckage of a machine with her toes and dodged the oncoming mechanical arm like a ghost. She fired the two guns in her hands alternately, and the flames from the muzzles drew bright arcs in the dim alley.

She smiled faintly: "Come on! My name is Meng Nai, the celestial demon among the seven stars. Of course, you certainly don't understand what I'm saying!"

Monae pulled the trigger, and the muskets in the air fired another volley as she moved, blasting the last mechanical core that was trying to reassemble into pieces.

She blew away the smoke from the muzzle of her gun, jumped lightly, and landed on top of a pile of mechanical wreckage, looking down at the new wave of machines coming in the distance.

"It really never ends." She smiled, her tone showing a bit of fatigue, but she seemed unconcerned.

When the mechanical tide arrived, the surrounding magnetic field suddenly changed, and a subtle electric current rose out of thin air, connecting the debris underfoot with the machinery.

Monae frowned and jumped back to the ground. When she looked forward again, the new mechanical wave had merged with the wreckage and became even larger.

"Tsk, they've merged again?" She put her hands on her hips. Although she was impatient, her eyes still showed her ease. "That guy Rednos is really something. Is it really necessary to set up such a difficult security system?"

She complained, sighed, and then put her hands down: "Okay, okay, if that's the case, then I will make sure you can never get back together again!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she let go of her hands. In an instant, a burning sensation rose out of nowhere, and in the blink of an eye, several purple-red flames rose around her.

Thousands of muskets rose from the sky, illuminated by the demonic flames, circling around all the security machines. Their barrels reflected the purple-red glow of the flames, like a swarm of bees poised for action. With a flick of Mona's hand, the muskets swung their muzzles, aiming at the core of each machine.

"Flame: Invasion of the World!"

Mona's voice exploded with a scorching blast of air, and thousands of muskets simultaneously unleashed a barrage of purple-red flames. The barrage poured down like a torrential rain, each bullet trailing a strange trail of fire as it pierced the core crevices of the mechanical body.

boom! boom! boom!

The continuous explosions sent waves of heat through the streets of the North District. The struck mechanical bodies were instantly engulfed by demonic flames, their alloy shells twisting and melting under the intense heat, incinerating the surrounding debris into molten iron. The metal fragments that had been trying to reassemble sizzled in the flames, completely losing their vitality.

Monae walked amidst the flames, each step creating ripples in the molten iron beneath her feet. The purplish-red flames danced around her, yet they couldn't harm her in the slightest. Instead, they licked the edges of her clothes like a docile pet.

Demons are evil spirits and are the purest form of tyranny in the world.

Mengnai looked down at the demonic fire dancing in his palm. The flames seemed to reflect the battlefield of a hundred years ago. The ancestors waved their claws to tear the invaders to pieces, and the blood dyed half the sky red, but in return, the tribe was given the notoriety of "evil spirits".

"I am a tyrant, no matter now or a hundred years ago. As for the reputation of being evil, what's the harm in me accepting it?" She chuckled and raised her foot to crush a piece of still hot metal fragment.

"Relax, go find Fu Fu. I've been busy for so long, and only Fu Fu can soothe my tired heart." She showed a silly look, and then quickly rushed to the west district, but encountered other security machines on the way.

……

To the east, near the Academy of Sciences, the signs of the mechanical uprising were even more pronounced. Amidst the rubble, flashing alarm lights cast flickering shadows on the shattered glass, and the air was thick with the pungent smell of engine oil and ozone.

Zhao Heng held the Red Thunder Spear in his hand and shot out like a dragon, instantly piercing through the chest of the giant machine.

He drew his gun and used the reaction force to spin around to avoid the giant arm of the machine. The tip of the gun drew an arc of electricity and accurately struck the core of another small machine.

Zi Xuan controlled the flames, melting the machines with minimal energy. Whenever a machine attacked, a portion of the remaining flames would separate, combining with the power of the Poison Spirit Certificate, igniting dark green flames on the metal surface with the power of sparks.

The poison was penetrating, so the flames could instantly reach the circuits, scorching the delicate circuitry. Zi Xuan flicked her fingertips, and tongues of dark green flame spread along the metal casing of the machine. Wherever they passed, fine bubbles emerged from the alloy surface, corroding and peeling off the once smooth armor plates at a visible rate.
