Chapter 219: Chapter 153: Field Guide to a Wild Legendary Mecha_1
[After slaying the Prehistoric Winged Fiend, you have obtained the Mythical Material: Storm Winged Demon Feather*2.]
…
[Now calculating rewards based on available information…]
[You have obtained Abyss Crystal: 100.]
[You have obtained the Mythical Material: Wind-Thunder Demon Blood*3.]
[You have obtained the perfect item: Winged Demon Wings.]
[You have obtained the perfect module: Storm Convergence (Supercharged)]
[Settlement complete, disconnecting from the abyss in one minute.]
The nesting site of the Winged Demon, the storm had already ceased.
The earth, after the fierce battle, had been struck into a giant pit nearly a hundred kilometers in diameter.
The Prehistoric Winged Fiend lay in the pit, its blood continuously flowing, having completely lost all signs of life.
On the other hand, the red and white bio-organic mecha still stood proudly in mid-air, constantly repairing its shattered body.
The voice of the mecha soul echoed in the depths of the heart.
[Yay, the final victor is…]
Zero hadn’t finished speaking when the effect of Time Deceleration Fusion wore off, and fatigue surged over him, cutting off his voice abruptly.
The mecha that was susceptible to fainting finally completely fainted.
Yun added in his soul’s depths.
[Indeed, it’s none other than your humble servant!]
[Without even having to strike, the enemy commander was defeated!]
“…”
Yun had learned to be sneaky, too—taking advantage of Zero’s unconsciousness to steal kills?
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle, then he turned his attention back to the team communicator.
Upon hearing Lan Yi’s words, he replied with a smile.
“I plan to grind solo instances next, so I won’t be able to form a party for a while.”
Jiang Chen had been soloing for so long that he had become accustomed to it.
He had come to play in team mode with the intention of farming some intelligence, and having achieved his goal, he naturally found soloing more comfortable.
Moreover, playing on multiplayer difficulty meant dealing with mechanics, making the fights more troublesome—
If Jiang Chen was intending to brute force through multiplayer, then why not just go solo?
Therefore, unless he was particularly interested in the loot from a multiplayer Legendary Overlord, Jiang Chen was planning to go back to lone wolf mode.
Lan Yi felt a bit disappointed upon hearing Jiang Chen’s words, yet found it expected.
Noobs prefer to party, but pros always love to solo grind—
In fact, Lan Yi himself had been a solo grinder in the Gaia civilization, rarely teaming up even for the 4th Rank difficulty of the Legendary Shadow.
It was only at the 5th Rank difficulty that life’s pressures bent his back, turning him into a drifter in the random matchmaking pool.
“Alright then, I wish you great fortune in your battles, pro.”
“If you need anything in the future, you can find me in the Purgatory level, I’m always there!”
Lan Yi, Qing, and the other three mecha pilots quickly left the abyss and returned to the real world after clearing the Shadow.
Jiang Chen, however, didn’t rush to leave, instead focusing on the settlement screen.
When taking stock of the battle’s loot, standing over the enemy’s corpse made it feel more tangible.
Storm Winged Demon Feather, Wind-Thunder Demon Blood, two types of 5th Rank Mythical Materials, could be used to enhance mechas and craft items.
They represented the three attributes of wind, thunder, and Ancient Life Force, respectively, and could enhance agility, Enigmatism, and energy.
Under normal circumstances, these two 5th Rank materials would hardly be of any use.
Because, Jiang Chen planned for Yuu to use the series of modules associated with the dragon god, namely [Return to Primal State], [Three Lives Skull], [Destructive Beam].
Among these, the Destructive Beam module had a special nature, with a chance to give Yuu a rare attribute.
[Deterioration]
This was the secondary attribute of the high-tier attribute [Death], providing a high bonus to damage against biological units, capable of causing near-real damage.
The Dragon God Monster had used this move to deal some real damage to Zero, whose defense attribute was as high as five hundred thousand.
Unfortunately, the power of Deterioration in its attacks was too weak, resulting in low related damage; Zero’s recovery ability was extremely strong, allowing for quick self-healing.
Even so, the attribute of [Deterioration] was still incredibly rare.
If it could later be elevated to the [Death] attribute, the damage bonus to biological units could become a damage bonus to all life forms.
Yuu’s advancement path was Enigmatism, Death, Ancient Life Force.
These two 5th Rank materials, although fitting the characteristic of Ancient Life Force, were redundant with their wind and thunder attributes and were too diverse in nature.
They were not suitable for enhancing Yuu.
But…
Jiang Chen learned from Lan Yi that the Purgatory level had a [Material Purifier].
The materials produced by Abyss overlords tended to have complex attributes, making it difficult for mecha pilots to craft mechas.
This kind of material purifier could select a specific attribute from the materials for purification.
Thus, materials with only a single matching attribute for the mecha, such as Storm Winged Demon Feather and Wind-Thunder Demon Blood, could also be purified.
When used for Mecha Enhancement, this could ensure the strength of the materials while also maintaining the purity of the mecha.
“Legendary Shadow producing materials, purification in the Purgatory level…”
“This way, once my strength surpasses the pro Li Xiao, I’ll have a way to obtain top-notch materials to enhance my mecha!”
Jiang Chen continued to look down.
[Winged Demon Wings], a perfect quality 5th Rank external equipment piece.
It could be attached to the back of a mecha, providing high agility and flight speed and enhancing the effects of wind-related modules.
Most importantly—
As an external equipment produced by Legendary Shadow, it possessed a rare tag: [Resonance].
Equipment with the Resonance tag can be equipped on a mecha without requiring additional energy consumption, performing normally like a module in terms of effect and power.
Moreover, when under attack, it could share the mecha’s defense and Armor Value, the same being true for repairs.
Apart from being unable to evolve with a mecha Rank Upgrade, and complete destruction after multiple damages, these issues aside.
They were almost indistinguishable from mecha modules.
