You Agreed To Fight Mechas, But Your Body Exploded Into Stars?

 Chapter 87 A huge harvest, the big guys gather together!

 Abyss difficulty, win!

In order to kill the Transcendent, Jiang Chen fought back and forth with him for nearly half a day, during which he did not know how many injuries he suffered and how much blood he lost.

  If Zero hadn’t awakened [Thorns], a composite module of anti-injury + blood-sucking, when he was sublimating.

 Just relying on the recovery speed of the root core may not necessarily make it possible.

 Up to now, all the "blood" flowing in Jiang Chen's body is the "blood" of the transcendent.

“Master Chao, although your body is dead, your life energy is still flowing in my body.”

 “I will carry on your legacy!”

“Speaking of which, after clearing the Abyss difficulty, the eighth-level upper limit should have been unlocked, right?”

Jiang Chen's agility has reached 6,700, and his reaction speed and thinking speed have been greatly improved.

 Thirty seconds of separation time was enough for him to check the harvest.

 The first is the flawless module dropped by the Transcendent: [Endless Vitality].

 【Endless vitality (overclocking)】

　　【Level: Two】

  【Quality: Flawless】

  【Type: core module. 】

【Effect 1: The mecha gains self-repair ability. In non-damaged state, it can restore 2.2 armor value per second. 】

[Effect 2: When the armor value of the mecha is at full value, the self-repair ability can continue to take effect, providing temporary armor value. (Up to 200% temporary armor value can be accumulated)]

 【Effect 3: When the mecha evolves/sublimes, it is obtained with a low probability according to the module combination (light and wood attribute evolution/sublimation modules)】

　　【Effect 4: The overclocking module can still produce a higher-level effect when applied to low-level mechas. 】

　　【Description: Endless vitality of life! 】

Great!

The overclocking module with the tendency of life and vitality is produced in the same series as [Genman Core], and it is also of flawless quality.

  It is almost completely locked in the first-order core module column of zero.

 Furthermore, its attributes are also quite powerful—

 After Zero completes his sublimation, the excellent quality [Root Core] is completely absorbed and the upgrade is completed together.

 The recovery speed provided has also been increased from the original first-level “0.1/s” to the second-level “1.0/s”.

 The [Endless Vitality] module is also a second-order overclocking module.

The basic recovery speed provided alone reaches "2.2/s", which is more than double that of the root core!

 This is the bonus brought by flawless quality!

  Secondly, endless vitality can also provide 200% temporary armor value.

The effect is simple and crude, directly increasing the meatiness of the mecha by two times!

 “Now you’ve really become meaty, Zero.”

Jiang Chen’s face was full of smiles.

 Zero’s module is equal to his module!

 Zero’s fleshiness is naturally equal to his fleshiness!

With three times the vitality, who can beat him in the future?

 It's a pity that he has absorbed the root core module so many times and only accumulated the recovery value per second.

　　【Double recovery under sunlight】This affix seems to be a unique affix and cannot be doubled and stacked infinitely.

Judging from this perspective, the [200% temporary armor value] affix brought by the endless vitality module is very likely to be a unique affix.

 It is estimated that it cannot be superimposed infinitely.

 Otherwise, he could have considered the feasibility of taking a star bath in advance.

 Except for the drop of the Transcendent.

 In the settlement reward, an overclocking module was also produced.

  【Stellar Energy (Overclocking)】

　　【Level: Two】

  【Quality: Flawless】

  【Type: core module. 】

 【Effect 1: After loading, obtain a stellar energy furnace, providing 12,000 energy values. 】

 Effect 2: After loading, when the star's light is irradiated, the energy recovery speed (up to 2.0/s) is provided according to the intensity of the light. 】

 【Effect 3: When the mecha evolves/sublimes, it is obtained with a low probability according to the module combination (light and flame attribute evolution/sublimation modules)】

　　【Effect 4: The overclocking module can still produce a higher-level effect when applied to low-level mechas. 】

　　【Description: Infinite stellar energy! 】

An overclocking module provides 12,000 energy values!

Jiang Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air.

You must know that the current state of the Yuanchu Mecha has an energy limit of only 600 points.

 Even though it is only a first-level mecha, it has not been specially strengthened in terms of energy, and its related attributes are relatively weak...

 It is also enough to prove how exaggerated the properties of this overclocking module are!

Jiang Chen only needs to absorb it once or twice, and the upper limit of increased physical strength is enough to exceed all the previous accumulation!

 It is indeed a stellar energy!

“The Extreme Cold Touch module, although I have absorbed it thirty times, the upper limit of its power is very high…”

"However, due to the upper limit of my physical strength, I am completely unable to exert its true power."

“So, we can only rely on elemental reactions to barely burst out some damage.”

“If I possess this stellar energy module in advance, my physical limit will be greatly increased.”

“Thirty times the extreme cold touch, without any elemental reaction, can also completely freeze the transcendent—”

“After all, the transcendent has no mystical resistance.”

Jiang Chen’s eyes shone.

This stellar energy module, like the endless vitality module, is a core module.

 Each level of mecha can only be equipped with one core.

 There is a conflict in the positions of the two modules, and it is impossible to load them all to zero.

 Furthermore, although its attributes are powerful, they do not belong to the tendency of life and vitality, nor are they suitable for the path Zero is currently taking.

 So, Jiang Chen plans to leave this module to Mecha No. 2—

 boiling steam·cloud!

 The principle of a steam engine is to boil water.

The effect of using stellar energy to boil water is definitely much stronger than other low-level energy sources.

At the same time, the extremely high energy limit can also support the mecha to explode with stronger power and show a posture beyond the limit.

 After all, without potential power, where would a temporary outbreak come from?

“Since we need to use the stellar energy module as the core module of the cloud...”

“Then, among the three paths I planned, [mysterious type] can be eliminated directly.”

“You should choose between [Explosive Type] and [Extreme Speed ​​Type].”

Jiang Chen is more inclined to the explosive approach.

However, the specific choice depends on the next overclocking module dropped—

Yes!

The first time I passed the Abyss difficulty, I exploded two overclocking modules.

While the harvest was rich, it also raised Jiang Chen's psychological expectations.

 What does ordinary module mean?

 Since each level of mecha can only load four modules in total.

 Be bold and overclock them all!

 “The snowball is rolling!”

Jiang Chen continued to look down.

  【Beyond the roots】

  【Type: Prototype of Mecha】

 【Effect: After activation, you can obtain the zero-level mecha: Beyond the Roots】

  【Note: Can be traded. 】

 A biological mecha appeared in front of my eyes.

However, rather than being a biological mecha, it is more like a transcendent of [Devil Stance].

 Three meters tall, a body made entirely of roots and vines, full of vigorous power, with huge green wings spread out behind it, and ferocious claws and feet.

 Everything is very similar to the form of the transcendent.

 Among them, half of the body hidden in the darkness has turned into light purple, exuding a faint shimmer.

 【Codename: Beyond Roots】

  【Type: Lightly-armored biological mecha】

 【Quality: Excellent (double absorption)】

  【Equal order: zero】

  【Reinforcement: Zero】

  【Attributes: Strength 3, Agility 3, Defense 3, Mystery 0. 】

  【Armor: 40/40, recovery speed 0.01/s. 】

  【Energy: 20/20, recovery speed 0.03/s. 】

  【Core module: not loaded】

  【Accessory module: not loaded】

 “Still super master!”

 “Although it doesn’t provide any great qualities…”

“However, after exploding two overclocking modules, you are not done yet, you have exploded yourself!”

 “Does this mean you’ll join if you can’t beat me?”

Just seeing the appearance of the mecha, Jiang Chen was a little nervous.

However, even if Master Chao wants to join, he cannot accept Master Chao’s surrender—

 There is an upper limit to the mecha slot of a mecha master.

Jiang Chen completed the promotion trial and when his authority was upgraded to the first level, he obtained a mecha slot, which has been used to bind the cloud.

There is no mecha slot now, and there is no way to convert the prototype mecha into a complete mecha.

 As for after reaching the second level, you will get a new mecha slot...

 When the upgrade trial is completed, a non-tradable mecha prototype will be awarded based on the settlement evaluation.

Jiang Chen can now pass through the abyss alone, so he will definitely be able to get an SSS rating in the promotion trial.

The base is a prototype of an excellent quality mecha.

 Hence, the prototype of the mecha [Beyond the Roots] was a bit useless to him.

“Zero and Super Master are both biological mechas that extend from their roots.”

 “Type conflict.”

 “Mechanical, magical energy, elements, nano, extraordinary...even undead, fossils, legendary creatures...”

“There are too many types and advancement tendencies of mechas.”

“There is no need to waste a precious mecha quota and cultivate a new mecha that is highly homogeneous.”

 Sorry, Master Chao.     Although Zero is taught by Qin…

 But, she realized something better!

Jiang Chen threw the Beyond Root Man into the bottom of the warehouse.

Planning to sell it back to a high-level mecha master—

 Not all mecha masters can obtain an SSS-level evaluation and obtain the best mecha prototype in the promotion trial.

 The evaluation is slightly worse. They may get a new type of mecha, but the basic quality is still average.

 Hence, a mecha prototype that is tradable and of excellent quality.

The value is definitely no less than an overclocking module!

The reward for passing the Abyss difficulty for the first time is too generous.

Two overclocking modules and a mecha prototype are top-notch in terms of quality and effect.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but look at it for a while, and accidentally exceeded the time limit.

Before he could continue to look down, he felt the world darken, quickly swallowing him up.

　　【Start to reshape the shadows of the past. 】

 …

 In this world, island base.

Shadows flowed past, and Jiang Chen once again stood in the open-air courtyard outside the mecha exhibition room.

 “My lord, you are back!”

 The cloud in the form of a steam mecha seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

　　I walked over immediately and asked expectantly.

 “Abyss difficulty…?”

 “Take it!”

Jiang Chen smiled heartily and said.

“After clearing the Abyss difficulty, I also got two top-notch overclocking core modules.”

 “One is for you and the other is for zero.”

“However, Zero is still sleeping. After I wake her up, we can try the new module together.”

When Jiang Chen attacked the Mutation Star, he ran out and settled in for a day.

 After reaching enough attributes, go directly into the abyss and kill the transcendent.

 At this time, Zero is still in a damaged state and has not been repaired.

Yun also knew this and nodded expectantly.

 “Okay! I will become stronger together with General Zero!”

Jiang Chen was communicating with the mecha.

Bai Ying stood aside but never spoke.

 After about a few seconds, her appearance changed and she turned into a woman in a yellow dress.

She looked excited and stood in front of Jiang Chen in an instant.

Even with Jiang Chen's current agility, he could not see her movement trajectory at all.

 “Jiang Chen, have you cleared the abyss??!”

"…yes."

 Does news spread so fast?

Jiang Chen originally thought that he would have to wait for a while before the mecha masters of Blue Star would know the news that he had successfully passed through the abyss alone...

 As a result, he had only escaped from the abyss for a few seconds.

 Senior Ruan directly logged in to Bai Ying's account remotely.

Isn’t this too fast?

 Is there any world announcement after clearing the abyss?

Hmm... After all, it is the potential improvement of the entire civilization. It does not seem strange to directly remind the mecha masters of the entire civilization.

Jiang Chen’s mind was spinning and he continued.

“After I cleared the Hell difficulty alone, I found it wasn’t very difficult, so I went to the Abyss difficulty to have a look…”

 “…Huh??, when did you go through **** alone?”

“Just a few days ago, didn’t Bai Ying tell you?”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　??

 Ruan Mingyu's brain almost stopped functioning.

 A week ago, she helped Jiang Chen complete the sublimation of the mecha, contacted Riley, the sixth-level mecha master, and after discussing the transaction price, she went directly to Proxima Centauri for vacation—

  The sublimation and strengthening of high-level mechas consume a lot of energy.

 In particular, she not only owns a humanoid light mecha like Bai Ying, but also a super large mecha.

 She was completely exhausted from trying to strengthen that mecha.

 Hence, while resting at the ecological base on Proxima Centauri, she completely put aside matters related to the mecha master.

 Going for pure leisure and relaxation, a complete vacation.

 During this period, I did not open a personal terminal or log into the alliance forum, which was equivalent to being completely isolated from the world.

 After all, what big things can happen in a week?

result…

 During this week.

Jiang Chen not only cleared the Hell difficulty alone, but also achieved a historical breakthrough.

  In one go, he cleared the Abyss difficulty level?

At this time, Ruan Mingyu had a sense of absurdity: "I haven't been online for a week, how come times have changed?"

 As for Bai Ying…

 According to the newcomer protection rules established by the alliance, Ruan Mingyu has temporarily transferred her ownership rights to Jiang Chen.

 During this period, no matter what Bai Ying saw or happened.

 Unless Jiang Chen actively requests it, or she judges that Jiang Chen is in danger.

 Otherwise, no information will be transferred.

 Even the master is no exception.

 After all, she is here to protect Jiang Chen, not to monitor him.

 As the most serious and responsible person, Bai Ying naturally complied with this rule perfectly.

  Did not tell anyone that Jiang Chen had cleared the Hell difficulty or was challenging the Abyss difficulty.

Ruan Mingyu couldn't describe his mood for a while.

Excited? Shocked? surprise? Confused?

 Finally, she spoke.

 “Tomorrow’s new star…”

“You don’t have to wait for tomorrow, you are the brightest star now!”

 As a seventh-level mecha master who had received an SS-level evaluation, Ruan Mingyu naturally knew about the [civilization potential].

 Know what it means to Blue Star to clear the abyss.

 So, I feel more emotional than ordinary people.

Jiang Chen was not pretentious. After smiling shyly, he talked about another thing.

“Senior Ruan, you don’t even know about my single trip to hell…”

“How do you know that I have cleared the abyss?”

 The person who answered Jiang Chen was not Ruan Mingyu.

 It was a voice coming from the sky.

 “It’s very simple.”

“A few minutes ago, all the mecha masters in Blue Star, no matter where they were, had their abyss patterns automatically triggered, and a message appeared—”

“First-order mecha master Jiang Chen successfully crossed the abyss and ended the disaster.”

 “Enhancing the potential of civilization.”

Jiang Chen and Ruan Mingyu looked up.

 A pure silver streamlined machine body slipped from the air and landed silently next to the two of them.

 The metal-like body shell flows and gathers like liquid.

 Finally, it all flowed into the shirt on the chest.

 Li Xiao looked apologetic.

“I’m sorry, the matter is very important, many people want to see you, so I came a little late in order to process the news.”

 “Besides, I think they should meet you too…”

 “When this is over, I will help you build a new base,”

 The meaning of Abyss difficulty is far more than just one difficulty.

As a top genius who has cleared the Abyss difficulty, he will naturally attract the attention and curiosity of all top mecha masters.

Jiang Chen had communicated with Li Xiao and understood the importance of this matter, so he was not unhappy at all.

 Instead, he opened his mouth according to the situation.

 “Is it okay to have a star base?”

"sure."

 Li Xiao answered quickly.

　　While the two were talking, traces streaked across the sky.

 Alloy, magic energy, nano, elements…

Mechas of all kinds, large and small, flew past and landed inside and outside the courtyard.

 The mechas were automatically disarmed, and the mecha masters came out one by one.

 The second-in-command of the alliance, SSS-level eighth-level mecha master...

 Leader of the Ark Organization, SSS-level eighth-level mecha master...

 Leader of the Meditation Organization, SS-level eighth-level mecha master...

Eighth-level bosses rushed to the courtyard of such a small island and looked at Jiang Chen with burning eyes.

As a newbie at level 7, Ruan Mingyu was squeezed among a bunch of big guys, and suddenly she shivered and felt a little suffocated.

 How about…

 Go offline first to avoid the limelight and come back later?

This chapter is still nearly 5,000 words long. Let’s continue to work hard today!
