Stormterror’s Rampage!
10: Chapter 10: The Destruction of Mondstadt!
Stormterror’s Rampage!
The large house was swept into the sky by a terrifying tornado.
However, the building that once seemed gigantic now looked incredibly small before another, much more massive figure.
In fact, Stormterror’s claws were far larger than the house itself.
The Anemo Dragon was shrouded in terrifying Anemo elemental power, instantly tearing the large house into shreds.
Stormterror roared brutally.
Terrifying storms were continuously summoned to sweep across the land of Mondstadt.
The attacks it unleashed this time were far more ferocious than any of its previous assaults.
Witnessing the horrific scene, the residents of Mondstadt began to hide in their basements.
They were terrified that their houses would be blown away by the gale and they would be dragged into the air along with them.
The City of Mondstadt was filled with the panicked screams and cries of its citizens.
Ordinary people were far too weak to face a disaster-level existence like this.
Even the knights of the Knights of Favonius were powerless against the giant monster.
Venti felt utterly heartbroken seeing the tragic situation befalling Mondstadt.
He knew that Dvalin’s mind had been corrupted, which was why the dragon could bear to do something like this.
As long as the poisonous corruption in Dvalin’s body was cleansed, the dragon would surely return to normal.
However, the most troublesome part was that Dvalin had ignored his voice since their last encounter with the Traveler.
Even now, the dragon was flying over Mondstadt to launch destructive attacks.
It was crystal clear that Dvalin no longer trusted him.
Venti felt a deep sorrow.
Although he wanted to intervene directly to resolve this issue, his current power was extremely limited.
Besides, over the past thousands of years, he had rarely appeared before his people to manage their affairs.
As a result, the majority of Mondstadt’s population had forgotten the existence of their own god.
Very few people still held strong faith in him, the Anemo Archon.
Without the power of faith, his strength had gradually faded.
Thousands of years had passed, and his divine power had heavily eroded.
Among the current Seven, he was probably the weakest god.
Furthermore, there were many Fatui members stationed in the city, secretly eyeing his Gnosis.
Many factions within the Knights of Favonius were also dissatisfied with Master Jean’s stalemate in handling the Dvalin situation.
What would happen if he, the Anemo Archon, rashly appeared to attack Dvalin?
The radical faction in the Knights of Favonius might immediately act following his lead.
If that happened, it would highly likely trigger a massive, fierce battle among all parties.
Dvalin would very likely be killed.
Furthermore, the greatest suffering would undoubtedly fall upon the ordinary citizens of Mondstadt trapped in the middle of the battlefield.
For the sake of Mondstadt’s safety, it would be better if he didn’t intervene openly.
Just as Venti was caught in a dilemma, he noticed the Traveler’s presence nearby, and his heart immediately cheered with joy.
The Traveler’s strength was already proven.
The fact that he could fight fiercely against the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles was enough to prove how terrifying the young man’s combat potential was.
Most importantly, he was a neutral party.
He wasn’t tied to any faction in this city at all.
As long as Venti created a situation where the young man was forced to fight Dvalin, this problem would be solved perfectly.
Without hesitation, Venti immediately used his Anemo elemental power to create a small wind current beneath the Traveler’s feet.
The wind current was indeed invisible, but its updraft was enough to launch someone straight into the sky.
Aether’s body was slowly lifted high into the heavens.
The Anemo elemental shield surrounding him allowed him to easily withstand the pressure of Dvalin’s storm, even while in the air, and helped him balance himself.
If he spread his wings now, he could glide freely through the sky.
Unfortunately, Aether currently had absolutely no wings to spread.
Aether felt the gentle Anemo elemental power embracing his body.
Just as I thought, he mused inwardly.
This must be the doing of Venti, the Anemo Archon.
When he first played the main storyline of Genshin Impact, Aether remembered that in this scene he was indeed suddenly carried into the air and forced to fight Stormterror.
Now that he was experiencing it firsthand, he realized that this sly, drunken god had intentionally pushed him to the frontlines.
Even though Aether’s goal was indeed to drive back Stormterror, the problem was he hadn’t acquired a Wind Glider yet.
After thinking for a moment, he remembered that he had absorbed pure Anemo elemental power.
As long as he exerted his power, he should be able to keep himself afloat in the air for a while.
According to the original script, the Anemo Archon was supposed to bless him with divine power during this fight.
With that blessing, defeating Dvalin would be a piece of cake.
Plus, he had already equipped himself with the max-level Emblem of Severed Fate artifact set.
If these three factors were combined, absolute victory was in his grasp.
He was confident this battle could be finished swiftly before the Anemo element in his body was completely depleted.
However, right as he was waiting for Venti to give him an injection of divine power to attack Stormterror, the bard’s voice faintly echoed in his ears.
“If Dvalin takes a little more damage, he might retreat and leave Mondstadt.
I know you’re incredibly strong.
You were even able to fight the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, so I guess the Anemo Dragon won’t be much of a problem for you.
In that case, I’ll leave the rest to you!” Aether froze stiff.
???
That’s it?!
Where’s the divine buff power?!
Aether was completely dumbfounded.
He never expected that after watching the video broadcast of his fight against the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, the Anemo Archon actually assumed he could hold his ground against such an entity, considering defeating Stormterror to be a mere warm-up!
Venti must have felt Aether was already so overpowered that he no longer needed a divine power injection.
Aether gnashed his teeth in frustration.
This was all the fault of that damn Interactive Q&A Live Stream Room!
Because of that broadcast, the storyline was now completely messed up.
If he managed to claim the Invincible Domain after completing the main story in the Seven Nations later, the first thing he would do was smash that cursed stream room to pieces.
But thinking about his current situation, Aether felt a massive headache coming on.
Now he didn’t have a Wind Glider, and he also didn’t get the extra attack blessing from the Anemo Archon.
But at least he still had the power of max-level artifacts combined with his Anemo elemental manipulation abilities.
His winning percentage against this Anemo Dragon was still very high.
It’s just that he had to finish this fight as fast as lightning.
Otherwise, once his Anemo energy ran out, he would fall to the ground or become a flying punching bag for the dragon.
Therefore, Traveler Aether’s gaze sharpened.
He began to focus all the elemental power in his body.
Right at that moment, his passive ability—’God-Tier Visual Effects’—activated automatically.
Initially, it was just a regular Anemo elemental aura.
But at this exact second, the cosmetic visual effect transformed his radiant aura into a storm of Anemo Archon power that was incredibly sacred and terrifying.
The thick black clouds that previously blanketed Mondstadt’s sky were even instantly swept away by the resonance of this fake ‘Anemo Archon’.
The Traveler, enveloped by a magnificent green pillar of light, floated gracefully in the sky.
He shone brilliantly, looking exactly like the incarnation of the Anemo Archon descending from Celestia.
This breathtaking sight was clearly seen by every pair of eyes in Mondstadt.
The city residents, who had previously resigned themselves to death, now stared at the Traveler’s figure with teary eyes full of hope.
“That’s the Traveler!
He’s stepping up to save us!” “Even though he’s a scumbag, his power is truly second to none!” “Oh my Archon, the Traveler looks so handsome when he’s serious!” “Great!
Traveler, hurry up and finish off that damn Anemo Dragon and return peace to Mondstadt!” “That’s right!
This Anemo Dragon has crossed the line.
How dare it launch such a devastating attack!” On the other hand, Master Jean felt a mix of emotions as she looked up at the Traveler in the sky.
Due to various political reasons, the Knights of Favonius were not at liberty to attack Stormterror openly.
Intervention from an outsider like the Traveler was the perfect solution.
“I leave the fate of Mondstadt on your shoulders,” she murmured softly.
Barbara stared at the Traveler’s majestic posture, which radiated a holy aura like a true Anemo Archon.
As a nun who deeply worshipped Barbatos, the girl’s heart pounded wildly, mesmerized by the young man’s charisma up there.
Amber stood frozen.
Her beautiful eyes reflected the mesmerizing charm of the blonde young man floating in the sky.
Meanwhile, La Signora, the 8th Fatui Harbinger, wore a serious expression.
She stared intently at the Traveler’s figure, secretly formulating calculations and cunning plans in her head.
The same was done by the Abyss Mages monitoring from afar.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still.
All of Mondstadt held its breath, bearing witness to the epic battle that was about to erupt in the sky above the City of Freedom!
