- Chapter 123: All I Know is Slaughter Unleashed_2
Just like Yano once saved Planet Blue Star, it was estimated that the problem of the Alien Demon Invasion was temporarily resolved, but it also left a lingering issue.
Later, the alien demons returned, creating a sustained civilization disaster.
It was estimated that the score wouldn’t be too high.
Jiang Chen planned to accumulate a wave of strength first before breaking through the rank upgrade trials.
Even among the chosen ones, he intended to become the strongest beacon of hope!
All the preparations needed before the rank upgrade trials had become crystal clear.
Jiang Chen saw that Li Xiao and the others were still discussing matters, he quietly left with Bai Ying, then sent a message to Ruan Mingyu.
Soon, through Ruan Mingyu, he contacted two lucky 1st Rank mecha pilots.
After briefly explaining the situation, he led them to swiftly clear a wave of Abyss difficulty level runs, with a total time not exceeding five minutes.
The three of them cleared the Abyss difficulty level while still adhering to the original rules.
New Age-Old Difficulty Level and Abyss Level 1 were unlocked.
As for the output, there was no change, it remained two Supercharge Modules and an additional random item, distributed among the three who cleared the trial.
Clearly, the Abyss difficulty level had a fixed output, unrelated to luck.
Besides, Jiang Chen did not receive any notifications like [Group Dive Privilege Triggered].
After leaving the abyss, Jiang Chen asked the two mecha pilots if they had unlocked the Fire Transmission privilege, which would allow them to view and support other civilizations, and received a negative response.
It was finally confirmed.
“Mecha pilots who ride the coattails of others, even if they clear the Abyss difficulty level, are not considered to have crossed the abyss.”
It made sense; the Abyss difficulty level, as a trial for civilization, could be somewhat justified if it was cleared with Supercharged Mechas provided by powerhouses—
If one lacks the talent, even with a Supercharged Mecha, one would still be utterly defeated by the Abyss overlord.
But if one simply hitched a ride, that completely lacked any real value.
After realizing this, Jiang Chen felt quite regretful.
It seemed he wouldn’t be able to wildly boost the burst rate through this means.
He would just have to obtain more Supercharge Modules and cultivate a few talents who could truly cross the abyss.
Once these talents from Planet Blue Star acquired the ability to clear the Abyss difficulty level on their own, they could continue to produce new Supercharge Modules.
These new Supercharge Modules could then create new talents capable of crossing the abyss.
New talents from Planet Blue Star could produce new Supercharge Modules…
An infinite loop!
By that time, even if Jiang Chen ignored everything, Planet Blue Star would enter a snowballing state, mass-producing Supercharge Modules, and outstanding Nascent Form Mechas!
“This is what truly reaps boundless benefits!”
“An initial investment of several dozen Supercharge Modules will later enable the endless production of Supercharge Modules.”
“Where else could you find such a good deal?”
“By then, it would also be easy to persuade Mom and Dad to use the Supercharge Modules to enhance their ability to protect themselves…”
“If asked, it’s just a valueless thing—why not use it if it’s free.”
However…
Jiang Chen planned to cultivate Kun Ping and had already invested in a mecha pilot talent because of past relationships.
He couldn’t have every friend possess a talent with a several-fold increase and thus have a hope to clear the Abyss difficulty level.
When it came to investing in strangers…
With so many talents, there had to be a reason to choose just a few.
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and sent a message to Li Xiao.
The big shot was planning to transform the civilization of Planet Blue Star, contact all parties, and carry out comprehensive reforms, weren’t they?
This process would inevitably face some resistance, encounter some problems.
Jiang Chen did not plan to get involved, nor did he have many good suggestions to offer.
The only things he could provide were these Supercharge Modules and the ability to invest in talents.
Thus, he decided to give Li Xiao the first few spots and let the big shot hold an [All Blue Star Talent Contest].
Allowing all newly awakened 0th Rank mecha pilots from across Planet Blue Star to compete and confront each other.
From this, select the strongest few talented mecha pilots and help them craft Supercharged Mechas at the 1st Rank!
The rough idea was this.
When to hold the competition, the process, including the specific rules and content, Jiang Chen did not intend to get involved.
He was only responsible for providing the prizes and naming rights.
If it was well done, it could eventually become an annual grand event for all of Planet Blue Star.
By then, Jiang Chen would simply find some unused items from his warehouse to serve as prizes.
“Speaking of which.”
“Such a Planet Blue Star level competition is typically where the wish-fulfillment protagonist gets to make a comeback and clinch the title.”
“I hope a dark horse emerges, fiercely claiming the first place, seizing the rewards…”
“And then becoming a diligent black [censored], producing Supercharge Modules for me.”
Imagining that scenario made Jiang Chen laugh.
Li Xiao timely replied.
“Good!”
All the big and small matters were handled by the big shots.
There was only one thing Jiang Chen had to do.
Consolidate!
After saying goodbye to the two lucky ones, he passed through the teleportation array formation in Xuntian City and returned to his Star Base to begin repairing the steam mecha.
The 1st Rank steam mecha was slightly larger than the primeval mecha.
Moreover, since Jiang Chen had no experience with repairing steam mechas, his actions were a bit slow.
It took him nearly five hours to complete the repair of the mecha.
When the last piece of armor closed up.
The steam mecha on the repair platform suddenly ejected a burst of steam, forming a cloud overhead.
The voice of the mecha soul rose in Jiang Chen’s heart.
[This subordinate failed in combat, please punish me, my lord!]
Jiang Chen shook his head and patted the brass mecha in front of him.
“It’s normal. Due to the talent I possess, the enemies I encounter often exceed your current strength,”
“Damage during battle is more than normal,”
“Zero came all the way through such circumstances,”
“The focus is on the future—”
“Every time we’re damaged, we become even stronger,”
“And… it’s your first time, does it still hurt?”
[It does not hurt!]
[After being guided by General Zero, I’ve already been mentally prepared…]
[In the end, whether it was the bursting forth of my small universe or being shattered and frustrated, none of it hurt at all, completely unlike what General Zero described!]
There’s no pain?
Both Bai Ying and Zero said it was incredibly painful the first time.
Jiang Chen pondered.
Maybe it’s because of the sublimation.
When mechas upgrade their rank, there is a thorough evolution and sublimation, where attributes and tendencies undergo enhancement and change.
Just like when Zero upgraded previously, subsequent damage only put it into a deep sleep without pain.
Yun might have received the experience passed down from Zero, developing the concept to resist damage, and also equipped explosive self-harm modules like energy overload and Limitation Unlock.
So, during the sublimation, it outright eliminated the drawback of pain.
In that case, as long as Zero shares more experience,
then future mechas could completely remove settings such as pain, and fully view expanded armor as a path to becoming stronger!
At that thought,
Jiang Chen was both excited and touched.
Zero, you’ve given so much to this family!
At this moment, Zero, equipped with an intelligence module, was looking at Yun enviously in the form of an Ember Girl.
Yun was just a tiny entity before, with low attributes, far from matching her.
Yet, after just one sublimation, Yun completely left her behind.
The gap between their attributes was almost tenfold!
What’s more important is,
Zero was well aware that even if she equipped two more Supercharge Modules, she couldn’t catch up to Yun as it is now.
At this moment, she couldn’t help feeling a bit dejected.
The nature of the mecha soul is pure, its mood almost written on its face.
Without needing any talent to perceive it, Jiang Chen could tell what Zero was thinking. He reached out to stroke her long hair, brushing off a pile of ash, and opened with a smile,
“Don’t worry, Zero, I’ve already asked Senior Yano,”
“In the Endless Difficulty Level of the abyss, there are items that can make up for your shortcomings and enhance your initial quality,”
“I will make sure to get them for you,”
[General Zero, let us consolidate together!]
“My lord, Yun…”
Zero’s mood quickly improved, deeply moved.
Indeed, she loved her master the most!
“Alright, let’s go and give it a try now,”
Jiang Chen raised his right hand and touched the Abyss Rune.
As the breath transformed into text, an additional line of message appeared,
[The Tianyuan civilization faces catastrophe, awakening the mark, requesting support.]
[Current catastrophe intensity: 3rd Rank.]
[Accept support?]
[Remaining acceptance time: 39 minutes and 27 seconds.]
“Wait a second?”
“Change of plans!”
