"Roar!" Stormterror flew up from the ground and let out an angry roar at Yu Jin, who was on the ground.
The Abyss Mages beside him were not idle either; they all activated their shields and vanished from their spots. When they reappeared, they had already teleported next to Yu Jin.
"Bang bang bang!" Unfortunately, all that awaited them was Yu Jin's iron fist.
The Abyss Mages never expected that Yu Jin, with just a single punch, could directly shatter their elemental shields, which were solidified by elements.
He clearly had no elemental power in his hands!
However, before these Abyss Mages could make any other moves, Yu Jin directly grabbed their two long ears on their heads and, with a wide swing of his arm, threw them far away.
These were all experience packs; he couldn't just cut them down like that.
Thus, Stormterror witnessed a magical scene in the Sky.
The Abyss Mages, dazed from the shield-breaking backlash, were one by one grabbed by their ears by Yu Jin, lifted like rabbits, and then thrown far away by him.
The anger in Stormterror's eyes grew even more intense. Although these guys approached him with ill intentions, no matter what, they were the only ones willing to proactively communicate with him after he awakened.
He couldn't just watch them get beaten black and blue by this strange guy in front of him. If anyone was going to hit them, it should be him!
"Boom!" A wind bullet shot out from Stormterror's mouth, flying directly towards Yu Jin.
Yu Jin felt the distant attack coming, immediately kicked away the still dazed Abyss Mage at his feet, and then dodged it with a big jump.
"Swish swish swish!" The wind bullet exploded on the ground, and countless sharp blades made of strong winds scattered from it, tearing the ground below into a thousand pieces.
"That's a pretty heavy hand." Yu Jin now began to wonder if Stormterror had a grudge against that Abyss Mage from earlier.
With such powerful force, if he hadn't kicked that Abyss Mage away, that single blow would have been enough to reduce it to fragments.
It seems the relationship between Stormterror and those Abyss Mages was not as good as they made it out to be.
Yu Jin looked at Stormterror in the air; his eyes were still filled with fury. These influences of anger were on many levels.
There was resentment towards Mondstadt for forgetting him, the corrosion of the toxic blood in his body, and the day and night guidance from the Abyss Mages.
"I'm telling you! Don't fight anymore, or you'll regret it!" Yu Jin warned as he retreated.
He didn't want to fight Stormterror right now; he had only intended to scout the enemy, but he hadn't expected to be discovered.
However, Stormterror clearly didn't listen to Yu Jin's words. He roared a few more times, and then a large amount of Anemo element condensed in his mouth.
"Again?" Yu Jin just felt that Stormterror was a bit tactless; he had such big ears but wouldn't listen.
Just as he was preparing to face Stormterror's breath attack, the Sky suddenly changed!
The gloomy dark clouds that had covered most of Mondstadt were dispersed, and bright sunlight poured down upon the earth, making people feel refreshed and at ease.
The active and restless Anemo elemental power in the air also became as peaceful as usual, transforming into gentle Thousand Winds that caressed all things in the world.
"Barbatos!" Stormterror interrupted his breath attack. He could feel that the power he had borrowed was cut off, and the storm covering Mondstadt was also eliminated.
So, he naturally attributed all of this to Barbatos. Then he vented his anger on Yu Jin.
"What the hell, what does this have to do with me? Why don't you go find that guy who's idle all day?" Yu Jin watched as the Sky above the Temple of the Thousand Winds darkened again.
Countless blue rings appeared from the Sky. Subsequently, the rings emitted dazzling flashes, and solidified blue wind bullets fell from the Sky.
The wrath of the wind descended from the heavens, vowing to tear everything to shreds.
In a short moment, the Temple of the Thousand Winds, which had weathered a thousand years of wind and frost, was destroyed by the rampaging gales!
This was the first time Yu Jin had witnessed the extent of destruction that a God-level power could cause within the continent of Teyvat.
Besides the Temple of the Thousand Winds, the high-altitude wind bullets also covered a farther area, and the wind bullets falling from the Sky utterly destroyed the entire region.
The original vibrant green turned to brownish-black, but fortunately, Stormterror's wind bullets did not have the deadly toxins of the Doctor. He believed that with the circulation of Dendro element, new life would soon break through the soil.
Yu Jin looked at everything before him and secretly made a decision. The next time he encountered a God-level enemy, he would directly use a sneak attack. Otherwise, if they were allowed to unleash their power, the damage would be too great.
This was not the apocalypse; Yu Jin couldn't just cause destruction freely.
Now Yu Jin didn't want to get entangled anymore, so he directly showed Stormterror what "God's speed" was.
Stormterror in the air closed and opened his eyes, and then found that Yu Jin was nowhere to be seen.
"Damn it!" In the high Sky, only Stormterror remained, raging in impotent fury... The scenery before him changed rapidly. Yu Jin left the Temple of the Thousand Winds, recalling the scene just now, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
He had only intended to observe Stormterror, but he ended up becoming a punching bag, even though he hadn't had good intentions himself this time.
However, he also had his reasons. The storm stirred up by Stormterror had attacked Mondstadt City. Many houses were damaged because of it, including his own.
These days, besides being busy with matters related to Stormterror, Yu Jin spent the rest of his time repairing his house.
He hadn't even settled the score with Stormterror about this, yet this guy was getting angry now?
Could this be tolerated? This could not be tolerated!
Yu Jin felt that the Stormterror subjugation group could depart earlier, to let Stormterror see what "strength in numbers" meant!
So Yu Jin immediately ran back to Mondstadt and arrived at the Adventurers' Guild front desk.
"Miss Katheryne, notify those participating in the Stormterror subjugation: we depart tomorrow!" Yu Jin knocked on the counter of the reception area and said fiercely.
"Ah? So soon?" Katheryne was a bit surprised, because it was too rushed. The announcement was made yesterday, and they were to depart the day after?
"That's how fast it is! Who told that guy to vent his anger on me!" Yu Jin waved his fist. He wanted Stormterror to know his strength.
Katheryne lowered her head and looked at the form for a while, pondered, and then said, "Alright, I will notify the Guild Master and everyone."
"Then I'll trouble you." Yu Jin nodded and left the reception area. Gathering people couldn't be rushed; he could only wait quietly... The next day, on a flat ground outside Mondstadt City.
Yu Jin looked at the dozens of people before him, feeling a slight surprise. He hadn't expected so many people to join this seemingly playful "Stormterror subjugation group" in just one or two days.
It seems Mondstadters have a high passion for Adventure.
"Good, I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic." Yu Jin looked around and saw both novices like Bennett and Jacques, and veterans like Cyrus and Stanley.
Wait, Stanley? Yu Jin looked at the "Stanley" in front of him. His strength was not comparable to the real Stanley. Was he not afraid of others finding out?
"Stanley, are you going too?" Yu Jin asked the Stanley in front of him, who was dressed in adventurer's attire and had a full beard.
Stanley looked at Yu Jin, nodded, "I also want to go and see such a scene of everyone adventuring together."
After hearing his words, Yu Jin nodded, then he looked at the crowd behind him and shouted loudly: "Everyone, stand still and don't move, prepare to depart!"
Just as everyone was wondering, they saw Yu Jin take a deep breath, and then he stepped diagonally onto the ground!
"Boom!" As Yu Jin's foot touched the ground, the power contained within it caused the earth to crack.
The cracks spread outwards, then circled back and closed. Then, Yu Jin bent down and lifted, and the massive block of earth, along with everyone on it, was raised.
"Wow! It won't crack, will it?!"
"So strong! As expected of a senior!"
"I wonder when I can be as strong as a senior!"
...Seeing themselves and the ground beneath their feet being lifted by Yu Jin, the crowd, witnessing a glimpse of Yu Jin's strength for the first time, immediately exclaimed.
"Stop shouting, be careful not to fall!" Yu Jin moved to the center of the earth block and shouted, after which the people on it quieted down.
"Charge!" Yu Jin saw that everyone was ready, and after a loud shout, he lifted the massive block of earth and ran towards the distance.
Stormterror, here I come!
