Chapter 331: 220 Such Powerful Strength!_2
“Using a star as a household item wouldn’t be too bad.”
Jiang Chen shook his head in regret and reached out to make a gentle swipe.
In an instant, he entered a void environment where high temperature and high energy were isolated on the outside.
This was the Void subplane.
[Solar Core] + [Specific Subplane], the location was quite hidden, and it could temporarily serve as a revival point.
In the future, when materials and components are abundant, set up several more revival points in different places.
Only then would it be more secure.
By then, everything was ready.
It only took Jiang Chen a moment to adjust the revival ritual and complete the binding of the ritual.
Looking at the resurrection item, he suppressed the impulse to “die once and try it out” and felt a slight stir in his heart.
“In the current Continuous Challenge, there is a Flesh Puppet as a 10 billion gatekeeper, preventing me from advancing further.”
“If I wait until I have the strength to defeat it,”
“Then it probably won’t appear, and will be replaced by a stronger puppet—”
“After all, as the Purgatory Dominator and a Flesh Host, knowing the recovery effect of the Star-burning Heart, it definitely won’t make the same mistake again.”
“It was originally aimed at suppressing my growth. Allowing a puppet to die would instead provide Mythological Victory Counts and accelerate my evolution.”
“So, only when I can’t defeat it, or when my chances of victory are low…”
“Will it continue to release Flesh Puppets.”
It’s certainly necessary to keep grinding the Flesh Puppets.
Every additional kill provides a Mythological Item, permanently raising the mecha enhancement limit five times.
A permanent, top-tier benefit, a super treasure creature!
Resurrection counts are essentially providing Jiang Chen with a safety net, allowing him to risk a desperate battle even with an extremely low chance of victory.
Not to mention…
The extremely low chance of victory is only superficially so.
The Flesh Dominator could only broadly sense Jiang Chen’s strength and was not able to directly inspect the panel, review properties, check abilities, or look at the combat moves.
It wouldn’t know about the effects of the specialized organs Jiang Chen had received—
The two-fold relative time speed brought about by the [Sundial Brain].
It didn’t just mean Jiang Chen’s combat speed could be doubled again.
Additionally, the recovery speed of the Star-burning Heart would be reduced from five minutes to two and a half!
This significant boost could be the winning hand that determined the outcome of the battle!
“As long as my pace of growth exceeds the expectations of the Purgatory Dominator.”
“Acquiring Mythological Victory Counts will be like picking things up from my pocket, effortless.”
…
The resurrection coins were ready.
To defeat the 10 billion-strong enemy, growth and accumulation were still required.
Jiang Chen stepped out and returned to the Star Base.
Zero immediately came up to him, brimming with energy and said,
“Master, Zero has rested well and is ready to start accumulating at any time!”
Yun and Yuu nodded in agreement next to him.
“Me too!”
Although they had received the boost of Mythical Specialization, the module capabilities and forms of the three mechas had greatly changed.
However, when compared to the enemy’s 8th Rank mecha squad, the gap was still quite evident.
They had also stalled at seven wins, with the mecha souls’ strengths increasing by 6, 1, and 1, respectively.
Following this trend,
In another five rounds, which was just half a day’s effort, Zero’s mecha soul strength could break 60 seconds.
Yun would need forty-two rounds, which would require grinding for five or six days at least.
This was the disparity brought about by the bonuses of Mythological Items…
However, Jiang Chen didn’t store them away and take them to the Purgatory level to continue accumulating mecha soul strength.
Instead, he said,
“Let’s not rush the accumulation—for now,”
“I’ve already saved up enough [Continuous Strengthening] items, let’s first improve your strengths.”
“Also, Zero.”
“When you break through to the 4th Rank, you will be the first to undergo sublimation.”
“For now, I’ll share the specialized organs with you to help you improve your attributes and accumulate some foundation.”
Each specialized organ is limited to being shared with only one mecha.
Yet, there is no limit to the number of specialized organs that each mecha can share.
Therefore, Jiang Chen planned to use all the specialized organs he owned on Zero!
However…
To bring the specialized organs to their highest efficiency, Time Acceleration must be activated.
If Jiang Chen wanted to accelerate his own mecha with the power of time, he had to do so through a contract connection and also through close contact.
If I keep Zero by my side and undertake continuous challenges…
Yun and Yuu would be without a front liner, leaving only two fragile mechas in battle, which would make it a lot tougher, and their growth rate would plummet.
Jiang Chen decided to strengthen the mecha first—
An 8th Rank mecha, each enhancement takes about seven hours.
To max it out at ten times, it would take about three days.
Since enhancement duration is closely linked with abyss atmosphere analysis materials and mecha strengthening.
Jiang Chen’s current time acceleration ability is targeted only at an individual, not an area, so it doesn’t affect the speed of enhancement.
Three mechas, each enhanced five times, with Zero using an additional Mythological Item.
In total, twenty enhancements would take roughly six days.
During this period, Jiang Chen could also accelerate time for Zero, helping her consolidate her attributes.
After all, no matter what, mecha enhancement is essential.
Combined with organ sedimentation, it’s as though he’s getting the mecha’s sedimentation time for free.
“I am the Master of Time Management!”
Mecha enhancement provides not only attributes but also influences various potential aspects.
Zero, Yun, and Yuu are naturally very excited.
However, what they are more concerned with is the sharing of organs…
Is the adult going to put more organs into Zero’s body?
How exciting!
Not long ago, Jiang Chen shared the “Star-burning Heart” with Zero.
She already possesses the “Infinite Core,” and after gaining the Star-burning Heart, all it did was add a layer of fiber flame special effects to her Life Force Core, slightly affecting its appearance.
But now, it’s different.
Zero is essentially a mecha, even if on the biological side, she is derived from a plant-based life form.
She doesn’t even have organs like a stomach, brain, bones, or lungs.
So, when Jiang Chen begins the organ sharing,
these “organs” immediately transform into corresponding effects and powers, integrating into Zero’s body.
Her exterior is covered in countless dark Abyss Runes which eventually converge at her chest, emanating a powerful devouring force.
It’s as if there’s a miniaturized black hole that can swallow stars and all kinds of energy.
The fiber body becomes even harder, with an added sense of ancient weariness.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen took out a star fragment and placed it on Zero’s chest.
The star fragment was instantly ingested, and her mecha attributes began to grow steadily over time.
Zero, feeling the intense changes within, communicated her thoughts.
[I can’t fit any more…]
“…”
Jiang Chen gave a slight nod.
So the number of organs a single mecha can share has a limit, which depends on the mecha’s own capacity…
Indeed, the “organs” are merely a form of manifestation.
Their essence is the source of power of the Mythical Lives they’ve devoured.
Jiang Chen, with his trait effects, his own constitution, and the power of the Abyss Runes among other things, has devoured and digested these powers.
Mechas, being somewhat frail, naturally can’t easily bear them.
“Five organs are plenty.”
Jiang Chen raised his right hand and touched the Abyss Rune.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you for enhancement.”
…
Jiang Chen was already very familiar with the mecha enhancement process.
Enter the Purgatory level, go to the enhancement facility, and enhance one by one.
Six days flew by in a blink—
Zero’s mecha attributes underwent a revolutionary change!
