Chapter 51: Chapter 49 The Changing Landscape of Planet Blue Star_1
Translator: 549690339
In this world, at home.
After taking a shower, Jiang Chen emerged with the flames having swept over him, rapidly drying his body, as he donned a bathrobe and stepped out of the bathroom feeling refreshed.
Indeed, a Transcendent!
“Bai Ying, did anything happen while I was undergoing the rank-advancement trial?”
The history of Mecha pilots on Planet Blue Star isn’t very long and is still in a period of rapid development.
A certain Mecha pilot broke through to the 8th Rank, reaching the pinnacle of the world…
A monster from the abyss appeared, causing numerous casualties…
A certain company cracked the technology of the abyss and developed corresponding products…
All sorts of news emerged endlessly, society was changing in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Chen, having become a Mecha pilot midway in life, already lacked some common knowledge, and now he had gone through a full ten days of rank-advancement trials.
Now, he was asking Bai Ying both to be informed about recent events and to supplement his knowledge.
Bai Ying stood up straight.
“Master, while you were engaged in the rank-advancement trial, your family, like the relatives of other Mecha pilots, received proper protection and were safe…”
Jiang Chen nodded.
The alliance is now the strongest force of Mecha pilots on Planet Blue Star, with many talented Mecha pilots joining its ranks.
The protection of relatives had become quite proficient.
He had no need to worry about the safety of his parents.
“…In the past ten days, an 8th Rank Mecha pilot affiliated with the alliance returned from the depths of space.”
“He discovered a new habitable exoplanet but found no signs of civilization on it.”
“The alliance is discussing whether to put the exoplanet colonization plan on the agenda…”
Exoplanet colonization?
Have things progressed this quickly?
Jiang Chen was somewhat surprised.
But then again, it made sense. High-rank Mecha pilots were already able to establish personal enhancement fields within stars.
Combined with the spatial capabilities of Mechas, leaving the solar system to explore other star systems seemed far from impossible.
Moreover, high-rank Mecha pilots might already possess the ability to terraform exoplanets and establish ecosystems.
It was just the cost that was too high, only suitable for establishing personal bases.
If we’re talking about mass migration, it’s better to find a suitable habitable exoplanet directly.
After all, Planet Blue Star hadn’t reached its population limit yet, so there wasn’t an urgent need for such an endeavor.
“Exoplanet colonization involves too many factors; it’s not something that can be done overnight…”
“Just the discussion alone will probably take many years.”
This kind of issue is too far removed from the average person, and certainly not something one could learn about from the internet.
Jiang Chen contemplated for a moment and listened as Bai Ying continued.
“…4th Rank Mecha pilot Simon, who obtained an SSS-class rating in the basic trials, is about to complete the sublimation and strengthening of all his Mechas.”
“Through the Ark Organization, he has announced his intention to clear the abyss carbon copy on Hell difficulty level by himself.”
“This has caused a sensation; Mecha pilots both within and outside the alliance are paying close attention to his movements, eager to know if he can succeed.”
“Oh?”
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.
Clearly, compared to the distant prospect of exoplanet colonization,
an SSS-class Mecha pilot challenging an abyss carbon copy garners more attention from the majority of Mecha pilots—
Even without fully understanding the settings, Jiang Chen could sense that the significance of this feat wasn’t as simple as just a difficulty level.
For one, teaming up to clear dungeons can greatly reduce their danger.
Even if two teammates are just assisting at the sidelines, they can provide fire support, emergency repairs, additional Mechas, and various other bonuses.
Because of this, the rewards for clearing a dungeon solo versus as a team are vastly different.
Some rare advanced loot is only attainable through solo clears.
And in Hell difficulty level copies, even in a team, there is an extremely small chance of dropping a Supercharge Module.
Once you clear it solo, this probability will greatly increase.
The Supercharge Module is a drop that even 8th Rank mecha pilots would be envious of!
Even if the output isn’t high, it can help the clearer accumulate more substance, allowing them to become stronger in a snowball fashion!
Second, the strongest mecha pilot on Planet Blue Star is undoubtedly the Symbol of the Alliance.
Even he couldn’t solo clear the Hell difficulty level and had to rely on teammates’ help to combat the abyss boss…
If someone did solo clear Hell, wouldn’t that mean they have more potential than the Symbol of the Alliance of the same era?
Combined with the accumulation of the Supercharge Module, wouldn’t they become stronger than the Symbol of the Alliance in the future?!
You have to understand, the current structure of Planet Blue Star is completely because of the deterrence of the Symbol of the Alliance.
If there was a change in the power, the whole situation would also change completely!
These two factors.
If the former just makes people green with envy.
The latter is truly related to every mecha pilot.
That’s the reason mecha pilots are paying such close attention to it.
“The Symbol of the Alliance’s inability to solo clear Hell difficulty level might be related to the initial ‘Supercharge Module’ being taken away,”
“If he had a Supercharge Module from the start, maybe he could have attempted a second supercharge or something, transforming attributes and mecha quality.”
“Then, solo clearing Hell, accumulating potential, gradually becoming stronger…”
“It’s just a pity that after his Supreme Bone was taken, his potential greatly decreased; and because of the situation, he had to break through quickly, without much time to accumulate substance.”
“Although he can still be invincible within the same rank, he can’t keep up with the pace at which Abyss difficulty level is increasing.”
“One step weaker, every step becomes weaker.”
Jiang Chen made a reasonable guess and couldn’t help sighing.
No wonder the Symbol of the Alliance hated those who plundered the Supercharge Module so much, swiftly exacting his revenge after his breakthrough.
With his talent, he should have been even stronger!
What Jiang Chen admired even more was.
After becoming the strongest, he didn’t turn into a tyrant.
Instead, he made rules, protected newcomers, and changed the state of affairs.
Later, rookie mecha pilots, whether it was Jiang Chen or that 4th Rank Simon, benefited greatly from this.
Even though Jiang Chen knew, with his potential, he was destined to surpass this strongest person in the future.
It wouldn’t change the respect in his heart.
“However, this Simon isn’t an alliance mecha pilot, but belongs to another organization.”
“If he were to really succeed, the prestige of the alliance would inevitably be damaged, and its status would gradually erode…”
Jiang Chen stood up.
“Bai Ying, could you help me contact Senior Ruan again?”
“I have now broken through to the 1st Rank, and Zero has finally shrugged off the restrictions and can start sublimating.”
Hell?
Just a stepping stone.
Wait till I, the newbie, build up some strength and clear an Abyss difficulty level for you to see.
“Okay…”
The adult had just returned and hadn’t rested for half an hour before they were about to start enhancing strength again?
As a mecha, Bai Ying had never seen such a dedicated mecha pilot before.
She felt admiration in her heart and began calling for her master.
A moment later, a yawning female voice rang out.
“You’ve just completed the rank-up trial, aren’t you going to rest for a bit?”
“Ha, I really envy you body-strengthened mecha pilots, all lively, as if you don’t feel fatigue.”
“Even if I use items to complete my evolution, I can’t compare to you guys at all…”
“Alright, sublimation, is it?”
“The mecha’s accumulation is already sufficient; it won’t take much time, come to Xuntian City with Bai Ying, meet at the usual place.”
