Chapter 82 Chapter 80: Aren’t we humans amazing?_1
Translator: 549690339
As the final boss of the Machine Rampage, this land titan didn’t have even a smidgen of Enigmatism.
This was its most fatal shortcoming—
Strength, Agility, Defense, Enigmatism.
These four major attributes represent composite values that are calculated in a complex and obscure manner.
Even with identical base attributes, there may be differences in tendency.
For example, the same hundred points in agility.
Aircraft and cars, those kinds of vehicles, may reflect this entirely in their cruise speeds.
Mecha and the human body, on the other hand, are more about comprehensive reaction speed, flexibility of movement, and even speed of thought.
Therefore, even if the attributes of the battling parties are nearly identical, the fight may not be evenly matched.
There could be significant disparities due to personal tendencies, skill effects, traits, and so on.
At this time, the Uncontrollable Titan had not even a hint of Enigmatism.
Not only did this mean it lacked any mystical means of attack.
But it also meant it had no special resistance to mystical types of assaults.
You see, transcendent fire and ordinary fire are both fire, but they are not at all the same concept.
Transcendent fire plus transcendent ice might trigger an elemental reaction.
Creating special effects like melting or exploding.
But what special reaction would you get from ordinary fire plus ordinary ice?
At best, it would be some negative effects due to rapid thermal expansion and contraction.
Of course, just because the Uncontrollable Titan had an obvious weakness didn’t mean it was weak.
Its Strength reached four thousand points, crushing the Ice Soul Tyrant of Hell difficulty level.
How was this manifested?
By using the upper half of its Mecha structure to hammer down punches?
Of course not—
Firepower belongs to strength too!
Just like now.
The Uncontrollable Titan’s detection range far exceeded that of common low-level mechanical beasts.
By the time Jiang Chen saw it, he had already entered the Uncontrollable Titan’s radar range and been successfully locked on.
As the attribute information emerged on the external scanning device,
smoke dispersed, and one after another, ground-to-air missiles were launched from the Uncontrollable Titan, striking toward the purple-white Mecha with their scarlet tails of flame!
The power of these missiles was far more terrifying than the anti-aircraft missiles fired by the city’s mechanical beasts!
“That range is way too far…”
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but exclaim.
He was over ten kilometers away from the Uncontrollable Titan and had already been locked on and subjected to an onslaught of firepower.
In a short time, hundreds of missiles had been launched, forming almost a solid line that tracked his movements.
A normal mecha pilot—how on earth are they supposed to cross this death zone and penetrate into the very body of the Titan to destroy its intelligence core?
Perhaps only Magic could achieve that.
“That being said,”
“Never-ending firepower, infinite ammo…”
“Are you sure this ‘Infinite Bullets’ thing is really scientific, really not at all mystical?”
Jiang Chen mused internally, decisively initiating Mecha Soul Fusion.
At this stage, the primeval mecha couldn’t even breathe in front of the Hell difficulty level’s final boss without entering Stage 2.
“Zero, lend me your strength.”
“[Ohhh, it’s coming!]”
Life Force Energy surged, washing over the Roots Core’s exterior.
The primeval mecha’s speed suddenly jump a notch.
At this stage, with Mecha Soul Fusion activated, the primeval mecha’s force agility defense could reach levels of two thousand one hundred, one thousand five hundred, and two thousand five hundred, respectively.
Although there was still a huge gap compared to the Uncontrollable Titan,
considering the difference in size between the two and the enhancement from the Supercharge Module,
the primeval mecha now had the right to breathe.
At this moment, the Mecha charged head-on towards the incoming missiles.
With the speeds of both parties combined, they almost instantaneously came into contact—
These missiles didn’t require actual contact to detonate, as they would automatically explode when in proximity to an enemy.
However, the Mecha approached too swiftly.
Before they could detonate, they were touched by the palm of the Mecha.
The power of ice instantly spread.
At the moment the missiles burst, both fire and explosion were comprehensively sealed within the ice.
They turned into frozen duds that passed the Mecha without effect.
“The times are changing!”
One after another, the missiles were frozen by the ice, completely losing their power.
Even if the Uncontrollable Titan reduced the number of missiles, increased their power, and extended the distance of their explosion,
looking to use the high-temperature shock waves produced by the explosion to inflict damage,
it was countered by Jiang Chen, who promptly froze the air and formed an ice wall.
He successfully blocked the high-temperature shock waves!
After all, the center of an explosion has the greatest power.
Unfortunately for the Uncontrollable Titan, it couldn’t detonate a bomb close to Jiang Chen, greatly reducing its effectiveness.
Even though the shock wave itself was quite powerful, after being weakened by the ice wall, it couldn’t completely breach the Mecha’s defenses.
The minor cracks and damage on the surface of the Roots Core were rapidly mending under sunlight—
The base self-healing rate of the body had already stacked up to 41.17/s.
The mecha, inheriting 50% and then doubling under sunlight, essentially inherited 100%.
Together with its own doubled rate of 4.20/s, the healing rate reached 45.37/s!
You must understand, the primeval mecha in Stage 1, with a total Armor Value of only 1200, wouldn’t need even 30 seconds to fully recover!
This was a terrifying capability to regenerate!
With this power,
The primeval mecha successfully broke through the first layer of missile defenses, triggering the uncontrollable Titan’s second layer of defense mode.
Its surface rapidly extended with turret and machine gun installations.
Under the smart fire-control system, it unleashed a frenzy of firepower, almost forming a curtain of rain.
Facing this layer of defense, Jiang Chen couldn’t continue to use “misfire” tactics to counter any longer.
He could only expend energy, utilizing the power of ice-shaping, to create icy walls to withstand the dense barrage of bullets.
But using ice defenses against relentless gunfire was ultimately not a sustainable strategy.
The walls were swiftly shattered and pierced by the turrets and machine guns, with large caliber ammunition constantly bombarding the surface of the primeval mecha.
Even with an armor value as high as 2500, the impacts of these bullets couldn’t be completely reduced.
The Roots Core kept getting torn apart.
The recovery rate of 45.37/s could not keep up with the rapidly falling armor value, akin to water draining away.
Until a certain moment.
The barrage of fire suddenly weakened.
The pressure on the primeval mecha also sharply decreased.
Turns out, Jiang Chen had broken through the second layer of defenses and reached the forefront of the uncontrollable Titan.
When the distance was too close, the number of turrets and machine guns able to lock onto the mecha naturally dropped sharply.
However, Jiang Chen did not let his guard down.
In front of him, the massive war machine, as tall as a building, suddenly opened its metal exterior to reveal a mechanical face modeled after humans.
Its mouth did not move, only the indifferent voice generated by a loudspeaker was heard.
“You rely on a bio-organic mecha, thinking you can reverse everything?”
“But unfortunately,”
“We are the dominant ones.”
Gears interlocked, turning swiftly.
Accompanied by the grating sound of friction, the gigantic machine that was over a kilometer long altered its shape rapidly and slowly stood up.
It was like a slumbering giant, finally awakened, standing upright, revealing its majestic and towering stature that reached the skies.
This was the true Titan posture of this uncontrollable war machine!
It lifted its foot, ready to stomp!
Compared to the vast heavens and earth, its movement seemed somewhat slow.
But if scaled down to around three meters,
One would find that no matter how fast the primeval mecha accelerated, it could not escape the vast shadow formed by the tread of the uncontrollable Titan’s foot!
The burst of ice power could only freeze part of the treads on the bottom, slightly slowing the descent.
Yet, in the end, he was still stepped on!
The earth shook and it seemed like all things trembled.
The world appeared to have returned to calm.
However…
A red dot was still flashing on the radar of the uncontrollable Titan.
The signs of life hadn’t disappeared?
Cameras formed on the bottom of the tread, transmitting footage.
One could see the vine-constructed bio-organic mecha was now completely shattered, disintegrating, rapidly turning into dissipating vapors.
A man wearing fingerless gloves and a jacket lifted his hands and forcibly withstood the foot of the Titan.

“???”
Even after evolving and gaining true intelligence along with formidable computing abilities,
The uncontrollable Titan couldn’t comprehend how this man could withstand its stomp with a mere flesh-and-blood body.
Even more incomprehensible was—
Why the man was standing easily on the ground, confronting it instead of being driven into the soil like a nail under such force.
Was the soil that hard?
The loudspeaker activated.
“What exactly are you?”
“Human.”
Jiang Chen flashed his teeth in a smile, his stamina rapidly depleting.
The surging power of ice, starting from the fingertips that were touching the ground, spread rapidly.
In just one or two seconds, it reached the entire tread, almost completely covering the uncontrollable Titan’s metal leg.
A wisp of transcendent fire ignited beneath his feet as he released his hands from the tread.
The tread, which should have fallen by its own weight and completely crushed him, delayed for a moment due to the frost, slowing its fall.
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen spun around with even quicker speed, raised his foot, and delivered a spinning kick, striking the ice.
The instant his foot touched the ice, the flames that had been accumulating for a moment erupted!
They transformed into a raging inferno, completely enveloping the metal leg!
An elemental reaction was triggered.
The uncontrollable Titan’s metal armor with a defense of 4300 shattered with a thunderous crash! Aall 𝒏𝒆west ch𝒂pt𝒆rs on n.o./v𝒆l𝒃i/n/(.)c𝒐m
Jiang Chen’s voice sounded.
“Humans are quite amazing, aren’t we?”
