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

Chapter 190: 136: Triggering Support, Divine Lord and Divine Prodigy_1



After the competition ended, numerous new era genius mecha pilots began their rank-up trials.

With their exceptional talents combined with the support of a full set of Supercharge Modules, passing the rank-up trials was a sure thing.

In another ten days, they could become 1st Rank mecha pilots and successively cross the abyss.

“I’ll first consolidate my attributes and farm a few more rounds at the Endless Difficulty Level.”

“This way, once I’ve triggered the Group Dive Privilege, I’ll know exactly how much my burst rate has increased.”

After returning to the base, Jiang Chen was about to select a suitable Endless Abyss.

But the Abyss Rune triggered itself, popping up the corresponding prompt.

[Stargazers Civilization is facing a disaster, the mark is awakened, requesting support.]

[Current disaster intensity: 4th Rank (550,000).]

[Current support intensity: 400,000-600,000.]

[Will you provide support?]

[Remaining acceptance time: 39 minutes and 59 seconds.]

Triggered the Fire Transmitter traits again?

Jiang Chen’s gaze was instantly drawn by this information.

The distress signal released by a Fire Transmitter civilization could be transmitted to up to six civilizations, including the Joint Burning Civilization.

Moreover, since the distress signal operates at a specific frequency, only mecha pilots of a certain strength could receive it.

Thus, although there are countless civilizations in the abyss,

Jiang Chen only received the second distress signal after quite some time.

“550,000 disaster intensity, the 400,000-600,000 support range…”

“With my current base attributes at around 250,000, plus various ability enhancements, I’ve been classified in the 400,000-600,000 strength interval…”

The Abyss Rune’s calculation method was fairly accurate.

An outburst is an outburst, normal state is normal state.

Even if Jiang Chen could unleash an attack with nearly a million in power, it didn’t mean his strength actually reached one million.

However…

“If I trigger my talent and absorb the power of a 2nd Rank Supercharged Mecha.”

“Then my strength will be far beyond just that!”

Jiang Chen, having completed his rank-up and taking on this strength-limited civilization support, was like cheating. He could easily overwhelm the opposition.

It was like Civilization Potential was lying right before his eyes, free for the taking—

Even if something unexpected occurred, with his massive health pool and defense, he could easily last sixty seconds and return to Planet Blue Star.

With that in mind, he called for his mecha.

“Zero, Yun!”

Following the transmission of his thoughts, Yun swiftly transformed into a wisp of abyss atmosphere, returning to the Abyss Rune.

Zero then turned into countless tendrils, lifting Jiang Chen up to form a five-meter-tall red and white machine.

[Acceptance application submitted, rescue beginning.]

[Welcome to the abyss.]

Darkness surged over, engulfing him completely.

[Current Location: Stargazers Civilization]

[Disaster Intensity: 4th Rank]

[Mission: Defeat the meteor body, resolve the falling star disaster.]

[Description: Civilization is in ruins, the Star Summoners have long perished, but the meteors that received the signal are arriving as expected.

They are here to fulfill the promise, to destroy the civilization of this planet.]

[Friendly Reminder: Free exploration, may leave the abyss at any time (requires one minute of preparation).]

A vast expanse of land contains buildings constructed from wooden materials, stretching into the distance forming a city with a unique style, different from that of Planet Blue Star.

Flat-topped towers, their sides draped with fabrics, stand prominently throughout the city.

These were the Stargazing Towers of the Stargazers Civilization.

Specific buildings used for harnessing the power of the stars and cultivating the civilization’s star-force system, usually equipped with sophisticated stargazing apparatuses.

Only now, there was no longer a need for these towers.

Without any need for tools, the people on the streets merely had to look up to see a giant meteor, over ten kilometers in diameter, silently hovering above the city, perfectly still.

It seemed that a slight tumble could instantly ravage the entire city.

At the same time, many smaller meteors orbited around the enormous meteor, creating a thin meteor belt.

In their slow orbit, countless fireballs fell from the sky, smashing towards the surface of the city.

As these fireballs were about to hit the city, they seemed to collide with some barrier, exploding into dazzling lights.

Under the countless explosions of these fireballs, the barrier shrouding the city trembled slightly.

Below the barrier, a boulder mecha inscribed with gleaming golden patterns glided over the city before settling atop a tall tower.

“Divine prodigy, the barrier reinforcement is completed,”

“It should hold for at least two hours, enough time for us to clear out the Fire Transmitters and free up our hands to deal with the disaster.”

Above the tower, a young man lay in a rocking chair.

On his forehead, the left side featured a black eyeball design, while the right lit up with several bars, loaded with several chips—

These chips were not the module types used in mechas.

They were Knowledge Chips, inheritances from a civilization.

The young man appeared to be resting with his eyes closed but was actually processing information within the chips, growing rapidly.

It wasn’t until the boulder mecha landed that he slightly lifted his eyelids, revealing eyes bright as stars.

“Is this the right way to do it?”

“Even when plundering fire, sustainable development should be considered.”

“If the civilization completely collapses, it’s as if we’ve lost a precious Seed of Civilization.”

“What you say is true, divine prodigy.”

Another metallic mecha nodded slightly in agreement.

But the youth scoffed.

“Bullshit.”

“It’s only because I’m here that you restrain yourselves a little…”

“If I weren’t here, do I need to spell out what you’d be like?”

“Over the years, the Divine Lords have collected 377 Seeds of Civilization, but less than 50 have survived to this day!”

“Are you saying those civilizations extinguished themselves?”

“Did none of you lot have a hand in it?”

“…”

The boulder mecha and the metallic mecha bowed their heads slightly, as if ashamed, but were cursing inwardly—

What do we have to do with the extinction of those Seeds of Civilization?

“We’re just low-ranked mecha pilots!”

“Even if there are faults to pick, they should be picking on the high rank mecha pilots, not us!”

However, they only dared to curse inwardly, maintaining a respectful and agreeable facade on the surface.

The reason was simple.

The youth before them seemed young.

In reality, he was a noble “divine prodigy” from the Divine Lord Civilization.

Within the Divine Lord Civilization, those considered the hope of the ages were revered as deities, controlling everything within the civilization and establishing a corresponding system.

Divine prodigies like this youth were not offspring of these deities.

Instead, they were individuals with exceptional talent and potential, chosen as “candidates of hope.”

If they grew up successfully, they would have the chance to replace the previous generation’s hope and become the new Divine Lord.

This divine prodigy Ying Tian was the youngest among the many divine prodigies of the Divine Lord Civilization.

It was rumored that divine prodigy Ying Tian’s talent came with a terrifyingly over eighty-fold enhancement!

Being just a 1st Rank mecha pilot, he possessed the strength of a 4th Rank!

Therefore, the two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots from other civilizations dared not defy this noble divine prodigy and simply followed his orders.

At the same time, they couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

It was finally a stroke of luck to come to a civilization that was calling for help on their home turf, where they could ambush in advance and act at will.

But to team up with a rigid and pedantic divine prodigy like this was simply terrible luck…

The divine prodigy Ying Tian was right.

Even as Fire Plunderers, once they had broken Civilization Potential, they indeed should provide corresponding protection, follow sustainable development, and continually obtain Civilization Potential.

But what did that have to do with them?

That was a matter for the Divine Lords to consider.

For these underlings, wasn’t it just a pleasure to enjoy?

Now, they couldn’t even enjoy themselves, and they had to serve the divine prodigy like a grandchild.

What a pain!

But as much as they cursed inwardly,

they were quite envious of the divine prodigy Ying Tian’s strength.

Through the Fire Transmitter traits, mecha pilots who came to the rescue would appear around the civilization calling for help.

At this moment, divine prodigy Ying Tian asked the person who was the hope of the Stargazers Civilization to stay on the ground.

He himself sat on top of a high tower.

When the abyss rift opened, three mechas fell from it.

He activated the Array he had previously set up, restraining the movements of the three mechas and, with the power of the Array, directed the disaster meteors, unleashed burst magic energy…

Add to that the focused fire of two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots.

He didn’t even need to pilot a mecha to leave the mecha pilots who came to support gasping for air!

If it weren’t for the mecha pilots who had the courage to accept the support signal, who basically all had life-saving means and had made preparations in advance,

they probably wouldn’t even last sixty seconds, getting a chance to retreat.

Reliant on this combo,

they had effortlessly repelled the mecha pilots from three other civilizations.

At this time, whether it was the three Fire Plunderer mecha pilots from the Divine Lord Civilization or the hope of the Stargazers Civilization, all believed this call for help was already settled.

The hope of the Stargazers Civilization even breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared to the previous supports from the Divine Lord Civilization, this “divine prodigy Ying Tian” at least proactively protected the Stargazers Civilization’s city and didn’t display any venting actions…

He was truly an anomaly among the Fire Plunderers.

He even felt somewhat moved.

It was right at this time that the space rift opened up.

A mecha, constructed mainly from pure white roots and covered with a flame-like armor, gently landed and stood upon the ground.

The moment everyone saw this red and white mecha, they were slightly taken aback.

Especially the divine prodigy Ying Tian, who sharply sat up, his eyes lighting up.

“Solo rescue?”

When a civilization received a rescue signal, all mecha pilots who met the conditions of “crossing the abyss” and “corresponding strength” could choose to accept it.

Simultaneously, they could choose to “go alone” or “go as a team.”

The first few mecha pilots to make a choice would become the ones to provide support this time.

Considering the strength restrictions, even powerful hopes would struggle significantly against three opponents of similar caliber.

Therefore, even divine prodigy Ying Tian eventually chose to team up.

The mecha pilot that appeared now had come alone!

This meant he was either the first in the entire civilization to make a choice and chose to go alone, a proud lone wolf…

Or he was the only mecha pilot who met the requirements.

“The former signifies mighty confidence in one’s own strength.”

“The latter signifies…”

“A hope?”

“A 4th Rank hope?”

“The original?”

Divine prodigy Ying Tian burst into a smile.

No matter the situation, at last, there was some fun to be had.

“Let me test your mettle.”

Divine prodigy Ying Tian’s brain had been modified, just like the Knowledge Chip on the right side of his forehead; his thinking only took a moment.

At this moment, with a thought from him, the domain magic that had been laid out unfolded instantly.

Spatial shackles, meteor guidance, missile barrage, magic energy burst…

With the cooperation of the two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots, a barrage of high-damage skills instantly overwhelmed the red and white mecha!

Divine prodigy Ying Tian watched the thick smoke rise from the flames, full of expectation.

“Don’t disappoint me…”

The next moment.

A breeze passed by, and the smoke dispersed.

The red and white mecha hovered above the molten lava crater, its surface showing a boulder-like hue.

Under the intense attack just now, not a single scratch had appeared on its surface, not even a plant fiber was broken or damaged.

It was as if none of it had ever happened.

A voice rose.

“That’s it?”

“Put some more effort into it!”

“Are you guys giving Zero a light scratch? Weaklings~”
