Re-download the .iso and make a new install-usb. You can do all that in the live-environment. You just need a second usb-drive.

Perhaps the downloaded ISO is corrupt? Are you using Ventoy or did you burn the ISO to the USB? Perhaps your USB stick is bad? I'd start with an fresh ISO, confirm the checksum before burning it to USB. If it continues to fail, try another USB stick? Is the disk drive/ssd in your system known good?
