From beneath it extended massive mechanical arms, like tentacles wrought from metal, constantly digging and dismantling the earth below, transporting rocks and soil above the behemoth.
Then, via conveyor belts, they dumped the material into the furnace, turning it into scorching fuel.
During the burning process, copious amounts of pitch-black steam billowed from the exhaust of the furnace, blending into the dark clouds in the sky.
Jiang Chen piloted the primeval mecha, standing in the distance, watching all this unfold.
“A world belonging to steam machinery…”
When he first saw the name [Steam Raging Tide], he almost thought it was the Steam World he encountered during his rank advancement trial.
However, he quickly realized this was not the case.
Impossible.
Age-Old Shadows were usually named after the type of calamity and the type of enemy faced.
Just as the enemies of the Eternal Frost Magic Realm were the Ice Soul Tyrants, and the foes of Machine Rampage were the Uncontrollable Titans…
The enemies of Steam Raging Tide, naturally, were steam-powered machinery.
If it were the Steam World from a rank advancement trial, the boss would have been a mutated monster, something like an age-old god.
Instead, it wouldn’t be of the steam machine variety.
Subsequent developments confirmed Jiang Chen’s thoughts—
It took him more than a day, between visiting home and strengthening his mecha.
During this period, although not many geniuses on Planet Blue Star passed the basic trials, the original mecha pilots did not disappear.
They were filled with enthusiasm and curiosity for the newly emerged [Steam Raging Tide].
They began exploring, aiming to obtain the latest materials and modules.
Even if it was not for their own use, the value would increase and profits would be higher with no stock available in the alliance.
In just one day, the easy, normal, hard, and nightmare difficulty levels of Steam Raging Tide had already been successfully conquered!
Even the Blazing Starsky Spaceship, as the low-difficulty “hidden boss,” had been discovered by several genius mecha pilots.
And they completed the first kill of the hidden boss at easy difficulty.
In this process, the background of Steam Raging Tide, some abilities of the final boss, and property tendencies were also partially revealed.
Before commencing his exploration, Jiang Chen specifically checked the information available.
He gained a slight understanding of the Abyss.
According to the forum post description,
Steam Raging Tide is a world where steam and transcendence are combined, initially developing in peace.
Until one day, a scientist on the brink of death modified his own brain, merging it with the operating core of a steam airship.
He… or rather, It, was reborn and simultaneously fell into madness.
It first modified and enhanced the airship, swiftly conquering a city.
And converted the city residents to a similar state as itself, becoming a biotic form of steam machine, continuously expanding its military power…
After a prolonged war, it eventually swept the world with a powerful Steam Raging Tide.
However, the steam machines that were converted had lost their own will, becoming nothing more than walking corpses.
Civilization had collapsed.
This was the background inferred by the mecha pilots based on the conditions in the Abyss, which might differ from the actual circumstances.
However, the attributes of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship are absolutely real.
Even if the Abyss difficulty adds many more abilities and increases the attributes by dozens of times compared to easy difficulty,
the tendency would not change at all.
“The main attribute of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship is strength.”
“Its secondary attribute is defense.”
“Agility and Enigmatism are relatively low but not excessively so.”
“Furthermore, as a large boss without specified health and energy points, these are its absolute advantages.”
Jiang Chen hid on the ground, observing the Blazing Starsky Spaceship from a distance without making any hasty moves.
From the experience with Star of Mutation,
these Abyss difficulty level bosses not only have powerful attributes but are also likely to develop corresponding overpowering abilities based on their attribute tendencies, capable of disrupting the balance!
If the Transcender’s [Infinite Rebirth] ability stems from its remarkable healing power,
then…
Based on the attribute tendencies of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship, as well as its attack patterns at lower difficulties,
Its special ability is highly likely to be powerful [Firepower]!
It might just be relying on some powerful weaponry to have destroyed humanity’s resistance, allowing Steam Raging Tide to sweep across the planet.
If Jiang Chen were to initiate the battle rashly, he would probably be hit with a powerful move right from the start.
To counter this,
Jiang Chen searched the alliance’s module library and prepared the [Wave Absorptive Coating] module, replacing the [Autonomous Intelligence] module of the primeval mecha.
This module could effectively reduce the detection range of radar and other devices, increasing the mecha’s stealth.
It was a supplementary module specifically for dealing with low-tech level bosses.
At that moment, Jiang Chen relied on the effect of the wave absorptive coating to fly the primeval mecha close to the ground at low speed, approaching the Blazing Starsky Spaceship in almost an invisible manner.
However, the Blazing Starsky Spaceship was indeed a true Abyss Overlord.
When he got to a certain proximity,
The Blazing Starsky Spaceship detected the presence of the primeval mecha.
Layers of metal constructions on its surface, under the joint operation of gears, swiftly opened up.
A brass-colored gigantic cannon aimed at the primeval mecha flying close to the ground and started to glow with a dazzling white light.
However, when the white light reached a certain level, it did not burst forth but stabilized at that stage.
Simultaneously, the metal plates on the surface of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship shifted positions, forming a featureless metallic face.
“Who are you.”
Clearly,
As a recently “opened” Abyss world,
