Is a defense of 4300 points high?

Exchanged for Enigmatism resistance!

When Jiang Chen unleashed his stamina, utilizing the abilities of [Touch of Extreme Cold] and [Flame Control] to trigger an elemental reaction on the mystical side.

The Uncontrollable Titan’s alloy right leg was forcibly melted through, embrittled, and shattered!

Even though its body was huge and capable of autonomously changing form to fill in the missing parts, this was still a very severe wound.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

For Jiang Chen…

Having stacked Blood Demon Transformation twenty-four times, he could convert life force into stamina at the maximum rate of 120/s.

Then, he would turn all of that stamina into damage.

“Blood is magic, and magic is blood!”

“Eat my Blood Demon Technique!”

The Uncontrollable Titan had never considered.

That as a mechanical lifeform, it would actually experience the feeling of being between fire and ice.

Jiang Chen didn’t even deliberately seek out its core, he simply dismantled it, crushing it!

[Kill the Uncontrollable Titan, acquire an outstanding module: Light-weight Missile.]

[Successfully killed the boss, achieving the exploration goal.]

[Total time taken: 24 minutes 33 seconds.]

[Mission evaluation: SSS.]

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

[Currently settling rewards according to trial evaluation…]

[You have obtained Abyss Coins: 10000.]

[You have obtained flawless materials: Memory Alloy*3.]

[You have obtained outstanding items: Self-Tracking Grenade*5.]

[You have obtained an outstanding module: Autonomous Intelligence.]

[Settlement complete, do you wish to leave the abyss now?]

[Note: Decline to leave, and you may stay an additional sixty minutes.]

Jiang Chen stood amidst the steel ruins, reviewing his settlement earnings.

Not seeing the word “supercharged,” he felt slightly disappointed.

He had been wondering if, unlike the Age-Old Shadow of Hell difficulty, there would be a “solo first-clear” burst rate bonus…

It seemed he had thought too much.

“Indeed, if all the Age-Old Shadows of Hell difficulty came with a first-clear bonus for soloing…

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“One hundred and fifty Age-Old Shadows would suffice for me to farm one hundred and fifty supercharged modules.”

“Let’s look forward to the Abyss difficulty instead.”

“If solo first-clears at Hell difficulty offer supercharged rewards, it makes no sense for the Abyss not to.”

Jiang Chen wasn’t in a hurry.

According to the experience with the Symbol of the Alliance, the boss attributes in Abyss difficulty at least doubled.

From the experience with the Uncontrollable Titan, if these bosses lacked in some attribute, their other attributes might reach extreme values of over eight thousand.

Add new forms, as well as skill bonuses.

Jiang Chen would probably need to stack his attributes above ten thousand to navigate through with ease.

“Keep stacking, no need to rush.”

“As long as the accumulation is sufficient, I can overcome any abyss!”

Jiang Chen turned his attention to his gains.

First was the module from the settlement reward.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

[Autonomous Intelligence]

[Rank: 1]

[Quality: Outstanding]

[Type: Special Module]

[Effect One: Grants intelligence to the mecha, having the ability to act autonomously.]

[Effect Two: Significantly enhances mecha computation power, usable for learning, analysis, and many other scenarios. (When the mecha is equipped with an intelligence module, it further enhances computation power.)]

[Description: We are our own masters.]

“This thing did burst out in one go.”

Machine Rampage at Hell difficulty would produce many outstanding quality science-technology modules, with even more varieties for solo clearing.

Jiang Chen had been prepared to trade if he didn’t farm them.

Having them in one go was a significant relief.

Of course, just a single Autonomous Intelligence module wasn’t enough.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He now had two mechas and couldn’t favor one over the other.

Furthermore, Memory Alloy was also needed by Jiang Chen, planning to use it to strengthen his second mecha.

[Memory Alloy]

[Quality: Flawless]

[Type: Material]

[Effect: When used for strengthening the mecha, it slightly increases resistance and resilience, and can greatly enhance the speed of form change, enhancing attributes of different forms.]

[Description: Life remembers everything, and so does it.]

Jiang Chen had prepared three blueprints for the steam mecha, one of which was [Explosive Type].

It could be overloaded and burst at different stages, exerting great power.

This Memory Alloy could remember different shapes, triggering transformations under specific conditions to match the changes in form.

Thus, it could better utilize the power after bursting.

It was a perfectly matched strengthening material.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Besides the Memory Alloy.

Machine Rampage of Hell difficulty also produced [High-Efficiency Fuel] and other materials suitable for advanced blueprints.

Since these were outputs of Hell difficulty, material shops were typically out of stock.

If Jiang Chen wanted to obtain them, he would have to explore the dungeons himself or commission other mecha pilots like Senior Ruan.

Might as well prepare these materials while farming attributes.

Otherwise, he would still have to come back and farm them.

“Boiling Steam is an excellent quality 0th Rank mecha, no matter how good the material, its effect will be limited.”

“The flawless materials from Hell outputs, as long as the attributes match, are definitely sufficient.”

The remaining outputs included [Self-Tracking Grenade] and [Light-weight Missile].

The former, as its name suggests, is a mechanical-lifeform grenade that can automatically track the enemy and self-detonate.

The power itself is decent, but compared to the supercharged module, it is not quite comparable.

Especially as these external equipments cannot be absorbed by Jiang Chen.

The attributes will seem increasingly weak.

“I’ve heard some mecha pilots’ talents enhance the effects of external equipment and consumables like grenades…”

“Tsk, that’s just burning through money.”

Those kinds of toys that can’t even pierce through their own skin defenses when detonated in hand usually belong in the toy category.

Just tossed it right into the warehouse.

[Light-weight Missile] is a technological auxiliary Weapons Module.

It adds several launchers on the mecha’s shoulders, back, hands, legs, and such, capable of using energy to produce and fire light-weight missiles that track and attack the enemy.

The effect and power are still quite formidable.

However, Jiang Chen, using [Crystal of Divine Punishment] for comparison, just imagined the scenario for a bit.

Suddenly, several openings split apart on his shoulders, and small missiles shot out with flames…

He couldn’t help but remark to himself.

“The human body is truly marvelous!”

After tallying up the spoils, Jiang Chen quickly left the abyss.

After returning to the island base, it took him only four hours to complete the repairs on the primeval mecha!

With a few more repairs, he estimated he could reduce the time to under three hours, which was very quick.

After completing the repairs on the primeval mecha.

Jiang Chen didn’t store it away but touched the Abyss Rune, and a semi-transparent chip appeared on his fingertip.

He walked up to the Primeval Mecha, and the tendrils on its surface automatically protruded, releasing an ice-blue chip.

Then, the semi-transparent chip was absorbed inside.

Bai Ying stood by, silently watching everything.

She had also witnessed Zero’s growth from the initial model Zero Mecha step by step to now and felt very attached to it.

She was also very curious about Zero’s existence.

When the primeval mecha had completely absorbed the chip, it was first still for a moment.

The next moment, it seemed to burst on the spot, transforming into countless tendril fibers, reorganizing, sealing, and reconstructing…

When it settled down completely, a woman made entirely of plant fibers, with purple hair and wearing a white dress, and delicate features, stood in its place.

The woman blinked, her eyelashes twitching slightly as she revealed a radiant smile.

“My Lord!!”

Jiang Chen and Bai Ying fell silent at the same time.

The primeval mecha was originally a bio-organic mecha, composed of tendrils.

Just like the Evolvers and Transcenders from the Star of Mutation, as long as they had thought, they could naturally reconstitute their bodies and change their appearance.

The appearance it showed, with white tendrils as the base color, wasn’t ugly.

But that appearance…

“Zero, why are you wearing Pinru… ahem, why did you take on Senior Ruan’s appearance?”

The tendril-formed “Ruan Mingyu” spoke.

“Zero wants to be like my Lord, but cannot be the same as my Lord, this is the appearance that has left the deepest impression on Zero, apart from my Lord…”

Zero’s words were a bit convoluted, but Jiang Chen understood its meaning.

Senior Ruan had strengthened Zero several times before and had helped it sublimate by using the traits of a mecha pilot, communicating with it several times.

It was deeply impressed by Senior Ruan, so when it changed shape, it subconsciously chose the other’s appearance.

However, understanding aside.

Jiang Chen naturally couldn’t let Zero maintain this shape.

Looking at Bai Ying next to him, she was about to burst!

After exchanging a glance with Jiang Chen and seeing him nod, Bai Ying finally spoke up.

“Bai Ying has a lot of appearances stored here.”

“If Zero needs, Bai Ying can share them with you.”

“Thank you, Sister Bai Ying!”

After a short selection.

Zero finally turned into a tendril girl with purple hair and a white dress, looking slightly older than Bai Ying, about eighteen or nineteen years old.

But that was just how she appeared to be older.

She was curious about everything in the outside world, seemingly always brimming with abundant energy.

One moment she was by Bai Ying’s side, sorting through the base’s miscellaneous items.

The next moment she was beside the steam mecha, quietly muttering words like “grow up quickly.”

In the end, she was a very young mecha soul, having not been born for long.

Jiang Chen let her roam for an hour before calling her back.

“Zero, let’s continue exploring the abyss.”

“Okay!”

Having gotten over the initial excitement, Zero no longer felt as thrilled.

Compared to free-roaming, she found combining with her Lord to be more comfortable.

With the [Autonomous Intelligence] module replaced by the [Touch of Extreme Cold] module once again.

Zero reverted to the three and a half meters tall primeval mecha—

Although absorbing the [Autonomous Intelligence] module could also bring computational benefits.

That would be something for building multiple mechas and starting a “pseudo-summon flow” later.

With modules currently scarce, attribute growth and the capabilities of the supercharged module were clearly more precious and offered higher returns.

Once again piloting the primeval mecha and activating the Abyss Rune.

Jiang Chen heard Zero’s voice in his heart.

[Insignificant robots, Zero is back!]

The rift opened wide, and he plunged into it.

[Talent Trigger: Undying Barehand.]

[Mecha Absorbed: Primeval Mecha: Zero-Type 4.]

[Attributes:]

[Strength 4391→4931]

[Agility 3190→3580]

[Defense 5359→6019]

[Enigmatism 2400→2700]

At the island base, Jiang Chen returned alone.

Clearly, Zero had left again.
