Mecha Battle: Why Do You Use Body to Destroy Stars? - Chapter 307

Chapter 307: Chapter 205: This is the Step to Advance!_1

Jiang Chen’s 100 consecutive victories are not considered many.

Even on the “Real Ranking,” he couldn’t qualify for the top spots.

There are too many talented mecha pilots from the three major level 8 civilizations that rank higher than him.

But the problem is…

Jiang Chen is only at the 3rd Rank!

Compared to those geniuses at the 8th or 9th Rank, he only has four Legendary Trait slots, and one of those was just obtained with his recent advancement to the 3rd Rank…

This means, within those three Legendary Trait slots, he must have at least two Legendary Traits to possess such strength.

“?”

Aren’t you the first generation from a fledgling civilization?

Starting with two Legendary Traits, do you really expect to have ten Legendary Traits by the 9th Rank?

Can you just casually activate such a cheat?

If this were some online game, the community would probably be incensed by now, calling for a strict crackdown on cheats.

Unfortunately, this is the abyss.

Other than shock, envy, jealousy, and confusion, the mecha pilots from various civilizations don’t really have any special recourse—

In fact, if Jiang Chen were not from Blue Star, this immature new civilization,

but from some ancient civilization.

Not to mention this, even if he performed more outstandingly, crushing the entire Purgatory level, nobody would question anything.

In the abyss, disparities in strength inherently exist; there is no absolute fairness.

Therefore, after their initial shock and envy, the mindset of the various civilizations in the Purgatory level quickly shifted.

Praises for Jiang Chen were everywhere, along with friendly comments about wanting to engage in exchanges with Planet Blue Star…

After all, being part of the same human civilization and facing common enemies,

and with the existence of the Fire Transmission Trait, the interaction between civilizations naturally has the potential for forming alliances.

Even if we put emotions aside and talk only about interests,

the benefits of becoming allies are higher.

Hence, the overall atmosphere in the Purgatory level is still very friendly.

The prerequisite is…

to ignore the other faction.

How can predators and prey coexist peacefully?

…

The Divine Lord Civilization.

The grand cathedra continues to float amid the cosmos.

The current Divine Lord sits on the cathedra, with several orbs of light floating before him.

These orbs come from past Divine Lords.

Although they have been gradually phased out as the Civilization Potential increased,

some Divine Lords, through exchanges with the Rebirth Civilization, gained precious resources for rebirth.

They succeeded in reincarnating and returning to their peaks.

At present, past Divine Lords each preside over a territory, collectively sheltering the Divine Lord Civilization.

Whenever major incidents arise, the current Divine Lord would also communicate with them to discuss opinions.

At this moment, a few Divine Lords were discussing the matter of winning over the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot—

Ying Tian returned and told them the demands of the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot.

However, because the demands were far too many,

the Divine Lords have yet to make a decision.

“The agreed time for the trade is almost upon us.”

“How are the deliberations progressing?”

“…It’s too much.”

An orb transmitted its thoughts.

“The Legendary Path, this is an exceedingly precious piece of high-level knowledge.”

“If taken to ancient civilizations, it could be exchanged for a great amount of miraculous resources.”

“He wants it all?”

“And the Mech Soul Tempering Method, the core inheritances of our civilization… Can he even ask for such things?”

“Isn’t this equivalent to handing over everything our civilization has amassed?”

Another orb sent out its vibrations.

“But no matter how much we have, it’s incomparable to the method of [Rank Demotion Fire Plunder].”

“…”

The first orb fell silent.

Indeed, compared to the Rank-Lowering Plunderfire method, these resources don’t amount to much.

But still…

It’s too painful! How could they easily give away the cumulative efforts of the Divine Lord Civilization over countless years?

“Moreover, the longer the night, the more dreams may occur.”

“He is our only choice; only through him can our Divine Lord civilization have the chance to rise.”

“But we are not his only option…”

“If too much time passes, and he contacts an ancient Fire Plunder civilization,”

“they would definitely agree to his terms in exchange for the method.”

Upon hearing these words from the orb, the many orbs became even more silent.

This is the most realistic issue.

Currently, the Divine Lord Civilization is the strongest Fire Plunder civilization in the Purgatory level and the best choice for the other party.

But if things were to drag on, the other party might well be able to find an even older Fire Plunder civilization.

An orb sighed softly.

“But it’s still too much.”

“Especially the Divine Lord inheritance, it is the cornerstone of our civilization and touches upon our defects. Once leaked, the impact would be immense.”

“This is a bottom line we cannot cross.”

“…Yes.”

Another orb spoke.

“Especially since this information was leaked to the Fire Transmission Civilization.”

“If they take it and make a deal with Ancient Eon Civilization, we might well collapse before we can grow through the [Rank-Lowering Plunderfire] Method…”

“We can have divine prodigy Ying Tian negotiate with him again, to make clear the stakes.”

“After all, he will also be one of us in the future.”

“This will be closely related to his interests.”

As the Divine Lords communicated among themselves,

the contemporary Divine Lord sat upon his cathedra, receiving a message through the divine realm network.

The next moment, he couldn’t contain his emotions, his expression undergoing a subtle change.

Jiang Chen…

A hundred consecutive victories in the endless challenge?

He knew what this meant better than anyone—

Double legendary!

Even if one of the legendary boosts came from a legendary mecha, it meant that Jiang Chen had at least one Legendary Trait honed by himself.

The ability to awaken a Legendary Trait without relying on a trait slot was a qualification in itself.

Many talented mecha pilots from ancient civilizations, even with a Legendary Path, ultimately failed to awaken one.

With this kind of qualification, Jiang Chen, coupled with more Legendary Paths…

Might well reach the realm of full Legendary Traits!

As for where these Legendary Paths would come from…

Planet Blue Star had such potent Civilization Potential, would there be a shortage of investors?

Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen!

Damn it, why won’t you die?

The contemporary Divine Lord grew more irritable.

To deal with the threat that Jiang Chen posed, he specifically revealed pertinent information to the various catastrophes.

He even found some of the weaker catastrophes, deliberately sparing them and providing them with the information.

Trying to use the pull of the abyss to pinpoint Planet Blue Star…

But whether this could really succeed,

the contemporary Divine Lord didn’t hold out much hope.

If it were so easy to bypass the Abyss Protection Mechanism, the current situation wouldn’t have arisen.

Not to mention, seeking out civilizations takes time.

Given Jiang Chen’s talent and growth speed,

perhaps by the time the catastrophes finally found Planet Blue Star, they would instead fall into a trap and become nourishment for its growth.

“It’s time to make a firm decision…”

The contemporary Divine Lord exhaled softly, a cold and decisive gleam flashing in his eyes.

Knowing that catastrophe was impending, aside from resisting head-on and taking preventative measures, there was actually a third option, which was also the most common.

To flee.

By leaving the reach of the catastrophe, one could naturally ignore it.

Of course, a civilization as vast as the Divine Lord Civilization couldn’t possibly flee the range of the Purgatory level and thus avoid the growth of Planet Blue Star.

But he could.

As long as the contemporary Divine Lord used transmigration resources to be reborn in an ancient civilization in another [Abyss Level], he could naturally avoid the conflict between Fire Transmission and Fire Plunder.

With his talents and his own transmigration resources,

many ancient civilizations would gladly accept his allegiance.

However,

once he abandoned his civilization to transmigrate alone,

the contemporary Divine Lord would lose his status, everything he had, starting anew in a completely unfamiliar place.

Not to mention becoming the hope of the people again, even becoming a hopeful candidate would be extremely difficult.

This was unacceptable for someone who had once stood at the pinnacle.

“So…”

“The method of [Rank-Lowering Plunderfire] must be obtained.”

“If I go to an ancient civilization, this will be my stairway to a new beginning. Exchanging it for a position as a hopeful candidate will certainly not be a problem!”

“I can still stand at the pinnacle!”

The contemporary Divine Lord’s gaze was profound as he swept over the various orbs before him.

He had actually noticed.

While most Divine Lords were unwilling to trade precious inherited resources,

there were a few Divine Lords constantly persuading others, excessively eager about the deal, regardless of the cost.

They…

Might well harbor similar thoughts.

Using this method as a stepping stone, the Endless Abyss, all Fire Transmission and Fire Plunder civilizations, all were within reach!

At this moment, the contemporary Divine Lord finally spoke.

“We can accept his demands.”

“This is the last hope for our civilization. At all costs, we must acquire it!”

“However, we must ensure he undergoes transmigration to prevent all efforts from being wasted.”

“…Yes.”

The Divine Lords fell silent for a long while, but eventually, they agreed with the contemporary Divine Lord’s opinion.

“We can have an ancient civilization act as a witness.”

“Let divine prodigy Ying Tian transfer the trading resources to the ancient civilization first, only giving him one transmigration resource.”

“After he completes transmigration, the ancient civilization will then transfer the resources to his original civilization.”

“In this way, both parties can be assured.”

“Even if he harbors a different intent, the loss would only be one transmigration resource.”

The contemporary Divine Lord nodded slightly.

Ancient civilizations also cared about their reputation; otherwise, no one would trade with them anymore.

This method was quite secure.
