[Woohoo, Zero the Undying, Nirvana Rebirth!]
[Zero has become even stronger!]
[Master, let us continue to fight side by side!]
In the mecha repair lab, as the last strand of root fiber healed completely, a crisp voice rose from the depths of his heart.
Jiang Chen also smiled.
Cultivating mecha, communicating with the mecha soul, gave him a sense of growth and nurture.
To the extent that Bai Ying was capable of autonomous action, thought, and the mimicry of appearance,
she could already be considered an independent intelligent life, not just a cold mecha.
Thinking of Bai Ying, Jiang Chen suddenly had an idea.
“When I think about it, I can actually do the same.”
“Mecha only fully absorb the modules during advancement, using them for self-evolution; otherwise, they can be equipped or removed at will.”
“I can certainly prepare several sets of Intelligent Core Modules and Life Mimicry Modules.”
“Before advancing, I can equip them on Zero and Yun to give them the freedom to move around, instead of being confined to the mecha display room.”
“During the advancement, they can be removed and replaced with the needed modules.”
“It won’t interfere with the normal upgrading path.”
The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
“When I have more mecha, I can also employ a sort of pseudo-summoning strategy—”
“Others’ summoning strategies rely on each additional mecha summoned multiplying their combat power.”
“My pseudo-summoning strategy involves each summoned mecha that’s destroyed resulting in a direct increase in attributes…”
“It’s just uncertain whether mecha that are not worn on the body but are bound to oneself can trigger the Undying Barehand talent if they are destroyed in combat.”
“Further testing is needed.”
However, this pseudo-summoning tactic also has its shortcomings—
The number of modules that each rank of mecha can carry is limited.
At 0th and 1st Ranks, the total is only four and eight modules, respectively.
If replaced with intelligent modules, it equates to absorbing fewer attributes, which undercuts their potential for growth.
Once the mecha’s rank increases significantly and the total number of modules greatly expands,
that’s when equipping intelligent modules will yield the maximum benefit.
Furthermore…
If a mecha equipped with an intelligent module is destroyed in combat,
Jiang Chen will naturally absorb the intelligent module it carried completely.
What kind of result would this produce?
Multiple absorptions?
“The effect of multiple absorptions of modules, in many cases, is equivalent to stacking mecha modules, with attributes stacking and growing…”
“I can predict the outcome using blueprints and pathways from other mecha pilots.”
Jiang Chen pulled out his personal terminal and opened the mecha blueprint interface.
Quickly, he found an advancement pathway called [Superbrain Mecha].
This mecha pathway also came from an 8th Rank mecha pilot.
Similar to the Symbol of the Alliance, 8th Rank blueprints couldn’t be exchanged and required contacting the individual directly.
However, blueprints below 4th Rank could be directly exchanged for contribution points.
Jiang Chen spent a hundred thousand contribution points to exchange for the 4th Rank blueprint of the [Intelligent Mecha].
He clicked to open it.
An extremely detailed blueprint and information appeared before him.
From design concepts to material application and matching, to module selection, and the cultivation of the mecha soul, everything was included.
Even if he didn’t follow this pathway, he could still gain a great deal.
Jiang Chen also got the information he wanted.
[Intelligent Mecha]
[Rank: 4th Rank]
[Quality: Flawless (evolved from an Excellent Nascent Form Mecha)]
[Description: A non-combat mecha, an analysis type support mecha, very low combat capability, unable to participate in formal combat.]
[Function: Repeatedly equipping intelligent modules significantly increases mecha computational power, rapidly collects information, analyzes battlefield situations, identifies enemy weaknesses, and provides intelligence support to other mecha.]
“That means…”
“The core effect of stacking intelligent modules is: improving computational power?”
For ordinary mecha pilots, this kind of support capability is incredibly useful.
With real-time information provided by the Intelligent Mecha, other mechas could vastly improve in combat efficiency, energy efficiency, and output capability…
It’s as if they had an eye in the sky, landing critical hits with every strike and dodging every blow themselves.
Their strength could potentially undergo a qualitative change.
For Jiang Chen…
Increasing computational power is just as useful.
When deriving mecha modules and creating mecha blueprints, it can greatly improve efficiency and save time.
When fighting in mecha, I essentially become an integrated Intelligent Mecha, analyzing and scanning a massive amount of information.
And when it comes to expanded armor combat, there’s even less need to say.
A single attribute point could unleash one and a half times the combat power.
“I must take it down!”
Though my body is all muscle.
In reality, I am a strategist.
But I still need to supplement a bit more computational power.
Once Jiang Chen made his decision, he put away his personal terminal, raised his head, and looked at the tall purple-white Mecha in front of him, communicating his thoughts.
“Zero, do you want to be like Bai Ying?”
[!! Master, I do!!]
Zero was incredibly excited, its voice thunderously loud.
As a Mecha, it envied how Bai Ying, being like a sister, could move freely and always accompany Master. It had been green with envy for a long time.
But now, it craved strength even more.
Moreover, Master would be fighting inside it, getting closer contact, fulfilling its desires.
That’s why it had never brought up the matter.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly.
“Alright, then let’s go get the Intelligent Module next.”
Intelligent Module isn’t a single module but a vast category.
On the biological side, there’s the “Bio-Brain”.
On the elemental side, there’s “Formless Wisdom”. Visitt nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐/m for the l𝒂test updates
On the technological side, there’s “Artificial Intelligence”.
On the magic side, there’s “Puppet Core”…
They each represent different advancement directions and types, with a range from low to high levels.
Jiang Chen doesn’t plan to set Zero or Yun on the path of intelligent mecha, so there’s no need to concern himself with the type of module.
He also doesn’t need to spend contribution points to buy higher-level Intelligent Modules.
After all, Jiang Chen still had a few days to settle in the hell difficulty level before challenging the abyss, accumulating attributes.
He might as well blow a few modules out for use.
“It’s a pity, aside from the first sole clearing of the Hell difficulty level of the Eternal Frost Magic Realm.”
“I haven’t acquired a second Supercharge Module in the subsequent clearings…”
“As expected, I have to focus on the highest difficulty level.”
As Jiang Chen was thinking, he touched the Abyss Rune.
Opening the interface of the Age-Old Shadow, the crumbling planets and civilizations sprang to his eyes.
He browsed through it and quickly made his choice.
Machine Rampage.
It’s a technological style Age-Old Shadow.
Based on the materials and module drop guide he browsed when he created the blueprint for the steam mecha.
This particular Age-Old Shadow perfectly met the dual needs for an “Intelligent Module” and a “Second Mecha Blueprint”.
It could also concurrently accumulate advanced materials for the second mecha.
Confirm selection.
[10, 9, 8…]
Jiang Chen raised his hand to touch the giant purple-white figure in front of him.
It instantly disintegrated, turning into countless purple-white tendrils that wrapped around his fingers and completely enveloped him.
The rift opened at the same moment.
[Age-Old Shadow construction complete.]
[Welcome to the abyss.]
[Current Location: Machine Rampage]
[Level: 1st Rank]
[Difficulty: Hell]
[Mission: Within five hours, kill the final boss: Uncontrollable Titan.]
[Description: At the end of an era, the war among three great nations escalated, with lethal weapons emerging incessantly, determined to erase each other from the planet.
To combat the enemy’s war machinery, one nation developed a mechanical virus and deployed it, successfully paralyzing the enemy’s machinery.
With the use of mass destruction weapons, they managed to eliminate the enemy’s military power.
However, a day passed, and the virus underwent an unknown mutation, rapidly spreading to all mechanical creations worldwide, engulfing the entire civilization.
When the paralyzed war machines rose again, they had gained new life and the ability to evolve autonomously, no longer controlled by anyone, raising the blade against their creators.
Flesh and blood against steel machinery, this was an utter slaughter.
“We are the true sovereigns,” it declared as it walked through the cities, leaving destruction in its wake.]
[Friendly Reminder: Free exploration is allowed. You can leave the abyss at any time (requires one minute of preparation time).]
