The Prince Mecha No. Four stood in front of the Mecha of Divine Punishment, brandishing its weapon without any defensive intent apparent in its movements.
Just as it had anticipated, Ji Xinghe chose to evade without launching an attack, knowing that the tungsten-steel weapons of the Mecha of Divine Punishment were unlikely to deliver a fatal blow to the Prince Mecha.
Side-stepping to evade, the Mecha of Divine Punishment appeared at the flank of Prince Mecha No. Four. The mecha's arms, wielding twin blades, lifted its battle knives, using its elbow to trap the right arm of Prince Mecha No. Four.
Forcefully driving impact with its shoulder.
As the unbalanced Prince Mecha No. Four stepped sideways to stabilize itself, it felt its massive mecha foot failing to land firmly on the ground, instead stepping onto a raised platform.
That platform was none other than the left foot of the Mecha of Divine Punishment, abruptly lifted under Ji Xinghe's precise control.
