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

Chapter 337: Chapter 223: Clearly Bestowing Economy, Bestowing Growth_2

“`

The profits are definitely higher than loading a basic attribute module.

However, the activation method of Bloodsucking requires close combat and biting, which is just too unrefined.

Even though it’s a mouth module that can benefit from the multiple bonuses of Three Heads and Six Arms, Demon God Returns, and can use hands instead of the mouth, claws for scratching people, to increase the speed of stacking strength…

Hey, it actually seems pretty good.

Jiang Chen chuckled to himself and put away the [Bloodsucking Fangs] module for the time being.

The effects of this module are somewhat related to bloodsucking and life force, so it can be installed on Zero.

As for the biting and tearing stuff…

It can wait until after the module is installed.

After all, his [Mythical Specialization] trait had evolved to 5/10.

Once activated, it can change the effects of modules loaded onto the mecha, making them more suitable for the mecha itself, in line with the mecha’s main body, and increase compatibility.

So, to know the actual effects, one has to try it out.

At this moment, Jiang Chen’s gaze returned to the Endless Deathmatch Arena.

He looked at the huge, malformed flesh on the Ring Mountain Range and smiled.

“Next.”

“…”

The Flesh Host looked towards the center of the field.

Fixating on the Asura monster with three heads and six arms, and a plethora of tentacles floating behind, its gaze froze for an instant as its form began to fade gradually.

It actually made a strategic retreat!

After experiencing two puppet defeats.

The Flesh Host had become acutely aware of just how terrifying Jiang Chen’s growth ability was.

Continuing to send Flesh Puppets had become meaningless—

They couldn’t suppress Jiang Chen or slow down his development.

Instead, they afforded him the opportunity to prematurely rack up Mythological Victory Counts and accrue top-tier rewards.

Isn’t this just handing him wins?

Twice is enough.

There’s an old saying: “All good things come in threes,” but the Flesh Host didn’t plan to continue sending Flesh Puppets, giving Jiang Chen more opportunities.

It decided to search wholeheartedly for Planet Blue Star instead.

“…”

Seeing that the Flesh Host didn’t continue to deploy Flesh Puppets and even vanished from the spectator stands,

Jiang Chen had already understood its intentions.

His heart was filled with regret.

Is it giving up already? It’s a powerful entity from Infinite Purgatory, after all; it could have sent a few more Flesh Puppets for me to farm!

To think that both Flesh Puppets had dropped top-notch rare modules!

Accumulating Mythological Victory Counts and obtaining superb modules, where else can such good deals be found?

“Such a pity…”

Around the Ring Mountain Range, the endless hundred demons also sensed the departure of the Flesh Host’s consciousness, and the suppression enveloping them had completely lifted.

They had no thoughts of regret, only excitement in their hearts.

The obstructive fellow finally left.

It was time to enjoy the martial arts school’s training wholeheartedly!

Meteors fell from the sky, crashing into the arena.

Amidst the dust, a terrifying ghostly figure stretched its arms, with a ferocious face yet surprisingly polite demeanor.

“Please enlighten me.”

“…”

Jiang Chen’s gaze fell on this ghostly figure.

Perceiving its rank and looking at the message from the Abyss Rune, he couldn’t help but grin.

Well, if the Flesh Host has fled, so be it.

According to the rules of the Endless Deathmatch Arena, it’s not just Flesh Puppets that can provide Mythological Victory Counts.

As long as they are powerful enough, legendary overlords can meet the conditions for a Mythological Victory Count—

And normal legendary overlords, upon reaching the 10th Rank of Nebula level, gradually master more legendary advancements, becoming mid to high-tier legendary overlords.

Jiang Chen doesn’t need to wait until the 10th Rank.

As long as he has enough basic attributes, he can naturally challenge those legendary overlords, accumulate Mythological Victory Counts and obtain Mythological Items.

“For now…”

“Let’s start by harvesting the remaining five specialized organs, and incidentally refine the proficiency of the Extreme Battle Spirit!”

Jiang Chen fixed his eyes on Asura before him and moved.

“Challenge commences!”

…

[Continuous Challenge concluded.]

[Consecutive Victories: 76]

[Legendary Victory Count: 75]

[Mythological Victory Count: 1]

“`

[Calculating your rewards based on the related information…]

[You have obtained the Mythical Material: Deathmatch Soul (All Aspects) *5576]

[You have obtained the Mythical Item: Continuous Strengthening *152]

[You have obtained the Mythological Item: Victor’s Crown]

…

With the Purgatory Dominator preparing the way for Jiang’s Martial Arts School,

all the Purgatory monsters that Jiang Chen subsequently encountered were Legendary Overlords!

Even though the strength of these Legendary Overlords was far inferior to that of the Flesh Puppets, with only one mythical power mastered and most of them not yet advanced…

they were still able to exert pressure on Jiang Chen despite the enormous gap in attributes.

By the last few battles, Jiang Chen had to rely on his astonishing physical toughness to ultimately achieve victory.

The battles also took relatively longer.

After the challenge ended, his attributes increased from 10.81 billion to 10.845 billion!

The efficiency was a bit too low.

Therefore, Jiang Chen dismissed the idea of continuing the challenge and received his rewards.

And then, he immediately left the Purgatory level and returned to Planet Blue Star.

Planning to halt Zero’s accumulation growth—

His attributes were increasing too fast!

At this pace, a few more hours and Jiang Chen’s attributes could break through the 10 billion barrier, officially entering the realm of 9th Rank!

The problem is, the rules of the Endless Deathmatch Arena are based on basic attributes.

At the 10 billion level, with every victory, the enemy’s attributes would increase by 10 billion.

When it reached the 100 billion level, each victory would result in the enemy’s attributes increasing by 100 billion.

Meaning…

Now, Jiang Chen could fight over seventy Legendary Overlords in the Endless Deathmatch, earning over seventy victories.

But once he crossed the 10 billion threshold, he could only earn seven victories.

The efficiency would plummet.

Therefore, Jiang Chen chose to keep his attributes just under 10 billion and to go through several rounds of Legendary Overlords.

To quickly max out the remaining five specialized organs.

Meanwhile, letting Zero, Yun, and Yuu compete in mecha challenges next door to continue accumulating mecha soul strength…

At the very least, he needed to raise Zero’s mecha soul strength above 60.

Once he completed these tasks,

he could begin the advancement trials, aiming for a secondary sublimation.

“Only when my combat power exceeds 12th Rank can I join the bosses in the alien demonic planetary domain to grind alien demon copies…”

“Moreover, to continue grinding for the Victor’s Crown and obtaining Mythological Victory Count, one must also possess strength above 12th Rank.”

“Compared to slowly accumulating attributes over time…

“Obviously, the benefits of advancing in rank are higher.”

Speaking of the Victor’s Crown.

Jiang Chen, with Zero, Yun, and Yuu, had previously attempted to increase Vitaz’s enhancement limit with the [Continuous Strengthening] item before going for an over-enhancement.

It failed.

As a sealed legendary mecha, Vitaz could not only not carry modules or be enhanced.

It also couldn’t use such items to increase its enhancement limit.

It was in a fixed state.

Only when Jiang Chen reached the 6th Rank authority and her seal was completely lifted, could she use items like Continuous Strengthening and Victor’s Crown.

“Even so, the shortfall of Victor’s Crown is still quite significant.”

“Three mechas, and only two items…”

“4th Rank can still unlock a new mecha slot, but if there is no suitable Legendary Overlord, and if I need to cultivate a mecha from scratch, a full set of resources is required…”

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but sigh.

Such top-tier resources were indeed too scarce!

He needed more “piglets”!

Zero’s repair speed was very fast, and it didn’t take long for him to reawaken inside.

Jiang Chen stopped Zero’s sedimentation process.

Incidentally, he equipped the [Bloodsucking Fangs] module onto Zero.

As expected, as soon as this module was installed, it changed under the influence of the [Module Specialization] trait.

[Bloodsucking Fangs – Thorns Specialization]

[Rank: 4 (8)]

[Quality: Mythical]

[Type: Special Module]

[Effect 1: Enhances the effect of Thorns Overgrowth, granting the mecha additional damage and bloodsucking effects when releasing thorns. (Specific values related to the module’s rank and Thorns Overgrowth)]

[Effect 2: When the mecha’s thorns successfully pierce an enemy and extract Life Force, half of the Armor Value recovery is converted into a temporary overall attribute boost.

(Up to a 0.1% increase per minute, capped at 250%, and gradually weakens after absorption ceases)]

[Effect 3: The mecha can only be equipped after one sublimation.]

[Description: The sweet taste of fresh blood.]
