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

Chapter 133: Chapter 105 Do you believe in bonds?_1

Jiang Chen didn’t know that a heart striving for betterment was gradually sinking under the strong impact he had brought.

At this time, he had already returned to Star Base and begun the enhancement and modification work of two mechas.

This mecha modification was the last change before advancing to a higher rank, where the modules would ultimately be absorbed by the mecha.

Therefore, not only the corresponding base attributes were needed, but also the matching and compatibility of the modules.

Only in this way could the mecha’s potential be utilized without waste, achieving a perfect advancement.

This was also one of the reasons why Jiang Chen had furiously cleared four hundred abyss levels.

After all, the Blue Star Alliance, after exploring the abyss for twenty years, had stockpiled a large number of common modules of low ranks, except for some rare high-quality ones. There were basic types and functions of all sorts.

If one had the money, completing a full set of gear by sweeping through a store was entirely possible.

That’s what Jiang Chen did when he was 0th Rank.

But it was entirely different for 1st Rank Supercharge Modules.

The alliance had no reserves of Supercharge Modules.

If Jiang Chen wanted to arrange a supercharged setup, he had to clear the abyss levels himself and produce the corresponding Supercharge Modules.

If luck wasn’t on his side, even if he cleared abyss levels that matched his attributes, the two modules produced might not be what he wanted.

Hence, Jiang Chen furiously harvested eight hundred Supercharge Modules.

Only then did he barely manage to pick out four sets of 1st Rank Supercharge.

Among them, Zero’s [Life Set] totaled four Supercharge Modules:

[Flame Doused Armor]: Fire attribute armor, boosts fire resistance, 700 defense, 700 enigmatic value, 2000 Armor Value.

[Self-Healing Shell]: Wood attribute armor, increases 400 defense, 20,000 Armor Value, 1.0/s self-healing speed.

[Boulder Form]: Rock attribute skill, petrifies oneself, entering a completely non-attackable posture, temporarily boosting defense by 400% and using the Earth’s life force to recover oneself, temporarily boosting self-healing speed by 900%. (Non-stackable)

[Bio-organic Intelligence]: The supercharged version of the Autonomous Intelligence module, enhancing computing power even more, used to replace [Boulder Form], allowing Zero to move freely.

Yun has grown now and is able to unleash a fully-powered burst form, bringing in strong force agility attributes.

In other words, Zero no longer needs to consider force agility.

It can fully embrace the path of life, utilizing all module attributes to build up defense, Armor Value, and recovery speed!

As for strength, agility, damage skills…

Isn’t there still Jiang Chen?

Jiang Chen is Zero’s strongest force!

This comparatively pure method of enhancement also led to significant changes in Zero’s attributes.

Strength 0.02, Agility 0.02, Defense 0.14, Enigmatic 0.09.

Hmm…

On the other hand, Yun, after switching to the [Power Speed Set] that suits steam mecha and completing ten rounds of enhancement, even surpassed Zero in terms of defense attributes by a substantial margin.

Strength 0.35, Agility 0.35, Defense 0.25, Enigmatic 0.02.

The reason for such a large disparity in attributes isn’t only because Zero’s base is too weak.

It’s also related to it having many recovery modules, while Yun is equipped almost entirely with basic attribute modules.

At lower ranks, a mecha can carry fewer modules, so the enhancement brought by each module is incredibly precious.

Now, both Zero and Yun have completed their final enhancements before progressing to the 1st Rank.

Jiang Chen’s new weakness had also been revealed.

[Enigmatic]

This value not only affects the power of many abilities but also influences one’s enigmatic resistance.

Like the ancient gods of the Steam World, with their primary attributes of darkness and spirit, they come with high enigmatic values.

Even if they do nothing, ordinary living beings with low enigmatic values will experience mutations and madness simply by getting close to Them.

Conversely, if one stacks a sufficiently high enigmatic value, along with a certain amount of corresponding resistance, it’s easy to resist such corruptive mutations.

Therefore, Jiang Chen reserved the Supercharge Modules for his third mecha, the [Enigmatic Set].

It’s specifically used to supplement the enigmatic value he’s lacking.

For the fourth mecha he reserved, it’s the [Functions Set].

The first four mechas are to first make up for the basics.

For more preferences and paths, Jiang Chen planned to wait until he advanced in rank before making further preparations.

After all, no matter how many modules and mecha paths he prepared.

He could not predict whether he would acquire a new core halfway through, possibly changing his plans.

After completing the mecha modifications, Jiang Chen was ready to prepare for his own advancement trials.

Before the advancement trials, there was one last thing he needed to do.

[Infinite Difficulty Level]!

As a new difficulty unlocked by the Deep Dive privilege.

The Infinite Difficulty Level boasts unfathomable depths, capable of producing rarer items, and even special items that compensate for mecha potential and improve mecha quality.

Moreover, Jiang Chen had also asked Senior Yano and learned more rules about the Infinite Difficulty Level.

First: The Infinite Difficulty Level does not have fixed outputs; the higher the quality of the item, the lower the probability of its emergence.

It’s best to make use of the burst rate bonus from the Group Dive Privilege for a higher yield.

Second: The output tier of the Infinite Difficulty Level is unrelated to the layer of the abyss but has to do with the intensity of the difficulty.

This means that if Jiang Chen battles a 3rd Rank Transcender.

Then the Supercharge Module it produces would no longer be of the 1st Rank but of the 3rd Rank!

The same pattern applies to other items and materials.

However, even if it’s a 3rd Rank Supercharge Module, when put on a 1st Rank mecha, it can only perform at the level of a 1st Rank Supercharge Module.

Jiang Chen wasn’t too impressed by that.

Third: Apart from the Supercharge Modules corresponding to the Age-Old Shadow, the rare outputs of the Infinite Difficulty Level are independent of the Age-Old Shadow and only related to strength.
