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

No matter how much more I supercharged it, it was the same!

But…

“Supernatural abilities of the Enigmatism aspect are different from magic, inherently possessing a great deal of uncertainty and having a strong correlation with luck.”

“Supernatural, supernatural, everything is possible!”

Countless mutated limbs stretched out from the clothes, wrapping around Kun Ping.

A bizarre Mecha with twisted tentacles appeared before Jiang Chen.

A slimy tentacle picked up a module and gradually engulfed it.

Kun Ping’s voice sounded.

“Brother Jiang, let’s make a bet.”

“Bet on whether this module has the element of time in it or not.”

“I bet it does!”

When the module was completely swallowed,

Jiang Chen thought he heard the ticking sound of a clock’s hand, invisible to the eye.

The next moment, a brand-new bronze module with a hand popped out of the mutated Mecha.

A voice of ecstatic joy emitted from the mutated Mecha, which couldn’t help but shake with excitement.

“Haha, I’ve won the bet again!”

Jiang Chen gently clutched the module in mid-air.

[Rapid Action (Supercharged)]

[Rank: Three]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Type: Accessory Module]

[Effect One: Once loaded, slightly accelerates the body’s time, improving the action speed (increases Mecha’s 15,000 agility, 5,000 Enigmatism.)]

[Effect Two: Once loaded, slightly enhances time resistance. (Reduces the impact of time influences)]

[Description: The same world, different times.]

It really was a time-related module!

Jiang Chen was amazed.

He was just talking casually; even if the module didn’t have time attributes, he would have been happy with any module that had good effects.

Unexpectedly, when Kun Ping bet on time, he really won time.

This concept of being able to change luck with such ability seemed way too overpowered!

Unfortunately, a low-rank module was still a low-rank module after all.

Although it had time attributes, this Rapid Action module did not provide any special abilities.

It was a more puristic attribute module.

It provided agility and Enigmatism attributes, plus a bit of time resistance.

The only remarkable thing about it was the [Time] attribute itself.

However, Jiang Chen was quite satisfied with it as well.

He had used quite a number of time-related Mythical Materials on the steam Mecha and obtained a Mythical Item that could strengthen the Mecha’s time attributes. Combining it with an actual time module…

This setup would definitely evolve into a Time Mecha, wouldn’t it?

Even though his Mecha’s rank was too low to obtain evolutionary modules related to time,

when it came to the upgrade from rank three to four, he would surely awaken a true time-based ability module!

“Speaking of which…”

“By accelerating the body’s time to increase action speed…”

“Shouldn’t it also incidentally enhance recovery speed or something like that?”

Like the many speedsters in Jiang Chen’s memories.

As their speed increased, their energy consumption and recovery rate both saw significant improvements.

After seeing the second effect, Jiang Chen guessed the reason.

After all, this was a Mecha Module derived from supernatural abilities.

If a supernatural ability user stayed in an accelerated time state for a long period, their speed would be faster, but they would also age quicker.

Therefore, the supernatural ability itself would enhance the user’s time resistance, reducing the impact of time on their lifespan, decreasing the number of cell divisions…

Perhaps, they could even accelerate their actions while slowing down aging.

“What a lousy supernatural ability.”

Jiang Chen delivered a sharp judgment.

No matter how one looked at it, it was still a time module, capable of bestowing time attributes on a Mecha.

What’s more, the production of this module made Jiang Chen realize the powerful nature of Kun Ping’s talent!

It could almost be considered an advanced Luck Aura; a manual king of luck; a humanoid jackpot machine!

“Brother Kun, I’ll leave all the prize-drawing tasks to you from now on!”

“Leave it to me!”

Kun Ping retracted the mutated Mecha, patted his chest, and smiled broadly.

He could easily make waves in the alliance forum, befriend numerous big shots, and even chatted a few times with the Symbol of the Alliance…

It’s all about that top-tier talent!

“Right, when you have time, you can find a couple of teammates and run through the Abyss difficulty level of the Star of Mutation.”

“Roots Core combined with Infinite Vitality is a suit module of supercharged level.”

“It can help you increase some survival capabilities.”

A supercharged suit?

Kun Ping’s eyes widened.

The mecha pilots of Planet Blue Star are still struggling for supercharged modules…

And Jiang Chen has already started playing with high-end stuff like [Supercharged Suits]?

“Brother Jiang is awesome!”

…

Jiang Chen shared a wave of cultivation experience relevant to supercharged mechas with Kun Ping, as well as insights on strategies for Abyss difficulty level.

In the process, he also set up a stall at the entrance to the event—

Apart from supercharged modules, he’d also acquired plenty of ordinary modules and low-quality materials in Age-Old Shadow and the ranking trials that he had no use for.

Originally, he had planned to dispose of these things in the alliance’s warehouse.

Now, upon arriving at the event venue, he simply decided to deal with everything on the spot.

Not for making money, a few contributions could get one a lottery draw, limited to three draws per person, simply to benefit the rookie mecha pilots.

At the same time, this satisfied Jiang Chen’s own desire to run a stall—

His initial investment of fifty thousand contributions to rent a shop in Xuntian City hadn’t even paid off before he was completely ousted.

What’s the point of running a store with unlimited contributions?

So, Jiang Chen could only indulge this way.

The ordinary modules and “low-quality” materials, which were useless to him, were considered premium items to these rookies.

It didn’t take long before his stall was completely surrounded and swiftly sold out.

Because Jiang Chen was wearing a special item, people didn’t recognize his identity.

It was only a burgeoning urban legend about a “mysterious jar vendor at the competition entrance” that began circulating online.

After disposing of the warehouse’s junk like this, Jiang Chen was about to head home and dive into grinding.

Kun Ping, who had helped with the stall for a short while, suddenly showed a look of surprise after checking his personal terminal.

“The alliance plans to distribute gene serums that can enhance the human body, allowing mecha pilots to awaken superpowers, and they’re asking if I need it…”

Unable to help it, Kun Ping looked up at Jiang Chen.

“The super ability gene serum, that couldn’t happen to be something you came up with, Brother Jiang?”

The vast changes that had occurred on Planet Blue Star were almost all brought about by Jiang Chen.

Therefore, upon encountering something like the super ability serum that he had never heard of before, Kun Ping’s thoughts immediately turned to Jiang Chen.

However, his imagination was still not rich enough.

“It’s made with my genetic sample,” Jiang Chen admitted plainly.

“As a physique type mecha pilot, to bring out the strongest effect, my gene was used as the sample to create the super ability serum…”

“…”

Kun Ping was astonished.

He treated Brother Jiang like a brother…

But Jiang was about to become his dad?

No, wait, if this gene serum becomes widespread.

Wouldn’t Jiang end up being the father of all humankind?

He couldn’t help but ask.

“What are the effects of the super ability serum like?”

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen spoke.

“You are a 1st Rank mecha pilot. If you use a type-one serum, you could gain about 30-50 points in bodily attributes, in addition to effects like enhanced Life Force recovery, stamina recovery, and so on…”

“Besides, you are not a physique type mecha pilot, you don’t need to rely on raw physical strength, so it’s best not to follow the explosive path, but rather use a serum that takes the Life Force path.”

“For the Life Force Serum, the basic model, 0th Rank, 1st Rank, you will use the serum three times in total.”

“There’s a chance to awaken two superpowers from options like [Photosynthesis], [Blood Demon Transformation], [Infinite Vitality], [Flesh Armor], [Vampiric Thorns]…”

Fifty points in bodily attributes, the chance to awaken supernatural abilities!

You know, the maximum attributes for a standard 1st Rank mecha, when fully enhanced, is only 200!

The mecha pilot doesn’t need to do anything.

Just by injecting the serum, they could gain power close to that of a mecha.

And that’s just the 1st Rank serum!

After a moment of silence, Kun Ping suddenly spoke up.

“Dad!”

With such an enhancement, what’s calling someone dad in exchange?

…

Inside the venue, Father Kun was watching the competition when he suddenly sneezed.
