Mecha Battle: Why Do You Use Body to Destroy Stars?

Chapter 57: Chapter 55 What era is it still traditional to go downstairs_1

Translator: 549690339

[Current Location: Star of Mutation]

[Level: 1]

[Difficulty: ordinary]

[Task: Within five hours, kill the boss: Evolver.]

[Description: A virus brought by a meteorite from beyond the sky decimated the Empire in three days, extirpating civilization and reducing everything to ruins.

Within this breeding ground for mutated life, the Roots Core continually grows, sapping the strength of the planet…

Nurturing it.]

[Friendly Reminder: Free exploration, withdrawal from the abyss is possible at any time (requires one minute of preparation time).]

In the profound cosmos, even the stars could only emit a faint glow.

Within the range of this light, the surface of a light green planet could be seen marked by stretches of verdant traces.

Upon closer inspection, these traces turned out to be massive green vines rooted in the planet, forcibly splitting open the earth to create deep chasms.

These chasms were like scars on the planet, turning it into a fissured stone sphere.

It seemed as if it would shatter with just a touch.

Jiang Chen’s perspective rapidly descended from outside the planet.

Moments later, he synchronized with a primeval mecha that appeared from the fissures, landing on a city rooftop covered in vines.

“This place, just like the Ruins of Mutation from the basic trial, is indeed the same planetary scene.”

“However, it doesn’t seem to be the same point in time.”

Jiang Chen stood on the rooftop, quickly looking down.

The level of greenery in the city was obviously higher than that of the Ruins of Mutation, almost turning into a green sea.

A kilometer-tall building not far away was completely enshrouded by vines, resembling a vine colossal tree towering over a kilometer high.

Everywhere his gaze fell, there were none of the gaunt, low-level Mutants to be seen.

Instead, there were bizarre creatures, half-flesh, half-plant, roaming the ground.

The external scanning equipment mounted on the head marked and provided information.

[Synthesized Mutant]

[Rank: 1]

[Attributes: Strength 40, Agility 40, Defense 30, Enigmatism 0.]

[Features: Within the Star of Mutation, Mutants have been gradually eroded by the Roots Core, evolving into Synthesized Mutants with stronger power than those at 0th Rank, yet still weak.

They pose a certain threat only through group behavior.]

[Weakness: Fire.]

[Evaluation: Be sure to carry area-of-effect weapons, as even ants can kill an elephant when numerous.]

Even the common, ubiquitous creatures of Age-Old Shadow, ranked at 1st Level, possess attributes higher than those of Master Luo, a nightmare from 0th Rank.

Considering the Mecha Enhancement when rank upgrading, all modules carried will be absorbed, and will follow the mecha to the corresponding level.

Even an ordinary-quality model Zero Mecha, fully enhanced and fully equipped with modules,

after rank upgrading, will at least have around 70 for the main attributes.

Defeating these lowest-level creatures is by no means a problem.

“The ordinary difficulty level abyss carbon copy is only recommended for ordinary mecha pilots who have completed module installation, mecha enhancement, and have reached the temporary pinnacle of their strength.”

“Ordinary mecha pilots who are willing to invest time, learn from the blueprints of the experts, and gradually build up materials and modules…”

“Also have a fairly good chance to synthesize a superior-quality mecha.”

“Considering that the Mecha Enhancement and modules of a 1st Rank mecha are done on the basis of having already absorbed the 0th Rank modules,”

“the degree of enhancement won’t be as exaggerated as at 0th Rank.”

“Such a superior-quality mecha, after reaching the pinnacle of 1st Rank, will have main attributes of around 200.”

Jiang Chen calculated the numbers in his mind.

He chose the ordinary difficulty Star of Mutation for a reason, not at random.

Zero had not undergone any enhancement, and even with its exceptional quality, its attributes were slightly below the clearing requirements of ordinary difficulty.

However, considering the recovery bonus of the Supercharge Module, the upgrade module of exceptional quality, and Jiang Chen’s Weapons Master trait bonus,

clearing the ordinary difficulty should be manageable.

It would not only be a chance to test the waters, but also help Zero find its place and build confidence.

After all, clearing a round of carbon copy wouldn’t take a few hours.

Secondly, the path of Zero’s advancement is based on the [Root Core] modules extended from the Star of Mutation.

Therefore, the types of modules produced by the Star of Mutation naturally suit Zero’s next advancement.

I need to get at least one decent one.

Jiang Chen was still observing, but the abyssal monsters couldn’t wait any longer.

A half-plant Synthesized Mutant, noticing the existence of the purple-white giant, opened its mouth filled with verdant roots and emitted a sound wave inaudible to the average person.

The ripples spread rapidly, and even the vines and leaves covering the ground twisted their direction.

The surface veins converged, seemingly forming eyes that observed the purple-white giant.

At the same time, behind the Synthesized Mutants, vines grew rapidly, interweaving into verdant fiber wings, flapping as they took flight.

In just three or four breaths’ time,

The sky was almost completely obscured by green.

Countless green-winged monsters rushed towards the purple-white giant!

“You guys are making it impossible for people with claustrophobia to live,”

Jiang Chen, looking at the sky swarmed with green-winged monsters, controlled the primeval mecha, and raised his right hand.

Ancestor of Flames – Great Flames Emperor!

Azure-blue high-temperature flames spewed from the primeval mecha’s right hand, forming circles of surging fire rings that spread out in all directions!

Although the Seed of Flames module Jiang Chen absorbed was from his 0th Rank,

After six enhancements, the power of the flames was almost comparable to that of a 1st Rank module.

Add to that Jiang Chen’s own accumulated strength, comparable to that of a 1st Rank mecha, which he now released almost entirely.

As these green-winged monsters came into contact with the fire rings, they were immediately engulfed and ignited, struggling and wailing, quickly turning to ashes.

The flames spread far and wide, a single eruption clearing a vast expanse of sky!

The surging abyss atmosphere converged and rushed into the Abyss Rune.

The energy for the rank upgrade surged sharply.

From the plethora of monsters, only three ordinary materials dropped.

“So many monsters, and only three ordinary materials…”

“The drop rate at ordinary difficulty level is still as crappy as ever.”

Jiang Chen muttered to himself.

That flashy outburst just now, while looking cool, exhausted almost all his strength, leaving his body somewhat weak.

An ordinary mecha pilot would have already begun the countdown to escape the abyss.

But…

What does it matter to Zero if Jiang Chen is out of strength?

The purple-white giant’s feet detached from the rooftop, floating up, its body slightly coiled.

The next moment, the force field became effective, and shockwaves spread out.

He almost instantly broke the sound barrier, turning into a meteor, heading straight toward the tallest “giant tree” in the city of vines.

There was no dodging or deviation along the way.

The monsters, vines, and buildings blocking the way were forcefully penetrated and shattered—

And the “giant tree” was no exception.

When the purple-white giant collided with the surface of the vines, even though the vines themselves were extremely tough, they couldn’t stop its momentum.

As the impact spread within, the root system, which had eroded the buildings and replaced the metal materials supporting them, swiftly snapped.

When the purple-white giant pierced through the building, it didn’t fly far before slowing down and stopping mid-air, turning to look back.

What one saw was the vine giant tree, towering over a kilometer, now had a massive hole torn near its base and could no longer support the weight above.

It swayed twice then slowly started to topple!Boom!!

Sap splattered and dust spread.

Jiang Chen, watching this scene unfold, felt like a kid who had just knocked over a block tower—the thrill of destruction gave him a rush of satisfaction.

Last time, he had to run downstairs step by step.

Now…

What age is it, still going downstairs the traditional way?
