“…Take it slow, no rush.”
Fortunately, Jiang Chen knew Zero’s mindset and knew it genuinely cared about Yun.
Wanted to share the joy of being a mecha with it.
Otherwise, from the perspective of other mechas, spending all its time breaking apart was bad enough, let alone wanting other mechas to shatter as well—wouldn’t that be totally perverse?
“After all, Yun is different from you.”
“You have already adapted to this way of growing, but Yun is still young and has not experienced these things…”
[That’s true, the first time will be very painful.]
Zero recalled its past memories with a shudder.
After pondering for a moment, it continued to convey its thoughts.
[Zero will help Yun, impart its experience, and allow it to become proficient more quickly, transforming the pain into enjoyment.]
Jiang Chen was immensely gratified.
Typical of Zero.
So quickly, it had already grown to the point of nurturing other mechas for me.
How wonderful!
This was just the growth of the mecha and mecha soul.
During the process of triggering his talent, Jiang Chen’s growth speed was far beyond that of the mecha.
Excluding the successful third challenge,
Jiang Chen had gained two more attribute enhancements.
[Talent Triggered: Undying Barehand.]
[Mecha absorbed: primeval mecha: Zero-Type 3.]
[Attributes:]
[Strength 2231?3311]
[Agility 1630?2410]
[Defense 2719?4039]
[Enigmatism 1200?1800]
[Special: Regenerate 34.87 health per second (doubles under sunlight), 9.29 stamina.]
[0th Rank Ability: Uncontrollable Mutation, Roots Core, Blood Demon Transformation*2, Seed of Flames*7.]
[1st Rank Ability: Blood Demon Transformation*18, Bio-organic Force Field*3, Thorns Overgrowth*18, Crystal of Divine Punishment*3, Flame Control*12.]
Three thousand three hundred strength, two thousand four hundred agility, four thousand defense!
Such foundation attributes are terrifying and have fully surpassed those of a typical 2nd Rank mecha pilot.
Coupled with the twelve times absorption of Flame Control.
As well as the attribute growth that can occur again after the expanded armor.
Jiang Chen now had the qualifications to conquer hell difficulty on his own!
Driving the primeval mecha, he stood on the melting glacier, his mood becoming irresistibly joyful.
“Next up is hell difficulty.”
“Zero, are you ready?”
[Always prepared!]
“Disconnect from the abyss.”
The mecha fell backward, plummeting into the dark crevice.
To date, over a million mecha pilots on Planet Blue Star had passed the basic trial.
Even though a considerable number of these million mecha pilots lost their lives in the abyss’ shadows, basic trials, or even current world conflicts,
a substantial number of mecha pilots remained.
Among them, the 0th Rank mecha pilots were the most numerous, with over two hundred thousand—
Most of them had mediocre talents and feared dying during the rank-up trials.
Thus, they stayed at 0th Rank, accepting alliance tasks each day, or farming materials in the lowest difficulty 0th Rank Abyss to exchange for contribution points.
As long as they don’t completely slack off, they can live quite comfortably.
On the next level, the 1st Rank mecha pilots totaled over one hundred thousand.
These mecha pilots chose to challenge rank-up trials and successfully survived, each having a bit of ambition.
Even if they stayed at 1st Rank, it was only because their talents were average and they progressed slowly.
They still worked hard every day to earn money, or carried out alliance tasks, accumulating contributions to exchange for schematics and materials of prominent pilots, trying to follow the path to greatness.
Without saying how strong, at least with a higher rank, they earned more contribution points and had a higher income.
Living more comfortably on Planet Blue Star.
With over one hundred thousand 1st Rank mecha pilots, there were only one hundred and fifty Age-Old Shadows of the 1st Rank.
Therefore, no matter how obscure an Age-Old Shadow was, it often had people checking the related records.
Not to mention, the “Eternal Frost Magic Realm” was not considered obscure at all.
The modules of cold ice and specters it produced were involved in many excellent mecha pathways and were of significant value.
Therefore, mecha pilots soon discovered that there had been some changes in the exploration record of the Nightmare difficulty level of the Eternal Frost Magic Realm.
A new record squeezed into the front ranks.
[Trial Passer: Jiang Chen, Rating: SSS, Time: 3 minutes 17 seconds.]
Jiang Chen?
The SSS-class genius who emerged recently?
It had only been half a month since Jiang Chen completed the basic trials.
Mecha pilots immediately recalled his identity.
Seeing the time in the completion column, they couldn’t help but click their tongues in wonder.
3 minutes 17 seconds…
Taking into account that the abyss leader did not appear right at the start,
this speed of clearing was basically an instant kill!
You have to know, this was a boss of the 1st Rank Nightmare difficulty.
To be able to instantly kill it meant his strength had far surpassed this stage and had earned a ticket to Hell difficulty!
Unfortunately, the gap between Nightmare and Hell difficulties was huge, and even the final bosses would change.
Quickly killing the final boss of the 1st Rank Nightmare was actually manageable for the very top group of geniuses.
The key hidden boss, however, had no relevant records.
Therefore, when this mecha pilot posted about it on the alliance forum, it did not stir up much of a commotion.
Currently, everyone’s attention was focused on Simon from the Ark Organization.
As for Jiang Chen of the 1st Rank, most mecha pilots just praised him a few times, feeling that his progress was indeed rapid, that he really could grind it out, and that he had the potential to become a feverish farming king, then the topic died down.
After all, Jiang Chen’s breakthrough had come too quickly.
Even if mecha pilots were to pay attention to the Hell difficulty, they would not focus on him.
It was only Lyle, the 6th Rank mecha pilot, who felt a bit of surprise when he scrolled to this post.
“He’s cleared the Eternal Frost Magic Realm on Nightmare difficulty level six times in the past couple days?”
“Each time with only a few hours’ break in between?”
“And the clearance time is getting shorter each time, with the shortest being just three minutes?”
“Hiss…”
Lyle couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
According to the timeline, Jiang Chen started grinding the Eternal Frost Magic Realm vigorously not long after completing the trade—six times in a row?
That was too earnest!
As the trader, Lyle felt very touched.
At the same time, he was also somewhat worried about Jiang Chen’s condition.
Even for a mecha pilot enhanced for physical strength, one should rest when it’s time for a break.
Moreover…
The modules and materials he needed were not coming out in Nightmare difficulty!
Lyle couldn’t help but take out his personal terminal and made a call to Jiang Chen.
He wanted to tell him to take a break, there was no need to be so eager.
He could help him contact two teammates to clear Hell difficulty together.
But then, he heard a message from the personal terminal—
“The mecha pilot you are calling is out of the service area.”
Out of the service area? Could he still be in the Age-Old Shadow?
Lyle shook his head and put away his personal terminal.
He’d wait a bit longer then.
Clearing Nightmare difficulty shouldn’t take much longer.
Meanwhile.
Lines of energy converged into words before Jiang Chen’s eyes.
[Current Location: Eternal Frost Magic Realm]
[Level: 1]
[Difficulty: Hell]
[Mission: Kill the final boss, the Ice Soul Tyrant, within five hours.]
[Description: The frozen earth has completely become the land of the departed.
The undying tyrant sits high upon his throne, guarding his limitless territory.
He will wield the Sword of Frost, slaying all living beings.
Until eternity.]
[Friendly Reminder: You are free to explore and may leave the abyss at any time (requires one minute of preparation time).]
