Mecha Battle: Why Do You Use Body to Destroy Stars? - Chapter 192

Chapter 192: Chapter 137: Finally Willing to Show Your True Strength?_2
 

As his breath dispersed, countless crystal-clear minute particles gathered around him, converging into a huge crystalline cylinder.

This massive crystal resembled a firearm in appearance, about three meters in length, and streamlined in shape, floating beside the divine prodigy Ying Tian.

Through his thoughts, a few particles spilled from the crystal, forming a visor and targeting system on his face.

This was his first mecha.

[Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter]

This mecha was not a manned type; it was constructed as a weapon for the future, with no capabilities to protect the mecha pilot.

It lacked modules for agility or defense.

All attributes were focused on strength, power, Enigmatism, and various Weapons Modules.

Its manifestation of strength was not physical power but rather firepower.

Furthermore, although it was a 1st Rank mecha, theoretically limited in the number of modules it could equip and in capabilities,

its installation of a supercharged special module gave it the ability to use various [External Ammunition], allowing it to adopt diverse attack methods against different enemies.

This is the profound foundation of the Divine Lord Civilization!

At that moment, divine prodigy Ying Tian touched the Abyss Rune and extracted a green crystal, placing it atop the Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter.

Upon contact with the crystal, the transparent sharpshooter turned green.

[Toxin Bullet: Cellular Suppression]

“Hold him down!”

Due to lack of agility, the fire rate of the Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter was slow, and shots could easily miss.

Divine prodigy Ying Tian issued the command to the other two mecha pilots through communication.

Upon hearing this, the other two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots stopped flying chaotically around the primeval mecha and directly confronted it, ignoring the damage from thorns, to apply control.

After a momentary pause,

a jade-green beam shot out from the tip of the sharpshooter, traversing the distance and striking the surface of the primeval mecha.

[Despicable small fry, resorting to poison…]

In the wails of Zero, the primeval mecha’s Armor Value of 1.1 million was directly reduced to 1 million.

A full 100,000 drop in defense!

And this was just the beginning.

Successive rays of toxin struck the primeval mecha, rapidly decreasing its defense.

Finally, when it was reduced to 700,000, the stacking stopped, with a weakening effect surpassing 30%.

The Armor Value’s recovery rate was also correspondingly weakened.

“To think he could still retain 700,000 defenses…”

“Does he have a certain resistance to biological viruses?”

Divine prodigy Ying Tian was mildly surprised.

This was his weapon to combat the Abyss overlord, capable of reducing up to 50% of defense and recovery rate.

Even within the Divine Lord Civilization, it was an extremely precious consumable!

However, a defense of 700,000 was not unacceptable.

His analysis device was able to detailedly analyze the opponent’s strength and attribute focus, and could even effortlessly decipher the enigmatic value.

Although the defense of this bio-organic mecha was strong, its Enigmatism was rather ordinary, merely three to four ten-thousands.

This indicated that its resistance to Enigmatism was extremely low.

Meaning…

Divine prodigy Ying Tian touched his forehead again and took out a fiery crystal.

[Magic Bullet: Exploding Fiery Flames]

The blushing red beam covered the distance and hit the primeval mecha, immediately igniting a considerable amount of flames!

However, as the flames rose,

the primeval mecha was not only minimally harmed but actually gained some strength from the flames, recovering its defense to 730,000.

“…”

Wood-type bio-organic mecha, you fucking cultivated the Fire Plunder attribute?

Are you insane?

Divine prodigy Ying Tian had a twitching corner of his mouth as he switched out for another crystal, slapping it onto the Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter.

Cultivating contrary attributes is the most resource-consuming and least rewarding venture.

Spending vast potential only offsets a small weakness, which for a mecha pilot with multiple mechas, is far less beneficial than simply enhancing strengths.

Which civilization’s mecha pilot is this guy from?

First a dump truck, now contrary attributes… what kind of abstract nonsense is this?

In the midst of ammunition switching,

the primeval mecha broke free from the restraint of the other two pilots and charged directly towards them.

With the impact, a tall tower was impaled and shattered to pieces.

Divine prodigy Ying Tian, along with the Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter, appeared atop another high tower in the distance.

“Didn’t your teacher teach you? How to aggro properly? Don’t let him disturb my output again!”

“…Understood.”

The other two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots had an odd expression.

Are you treating this like grinding a boss?

Indeed, the divine prodigy Ying Tian truly considered this unknown civilization’s mecha pilot as an abyss boss, igniting a spark of passion within him—

As a candidate for the harbinger of hope, he had effortlessly crushed both the 0th and 1st Rank abysses; even the promotion trials were like slaughtering pigs or mowing grass.

As one who was not the harbinger of hope and wanted to activate endless mode to find an opponent of the corresponding level, he still had to wait a long time.

The confrontations between mecha pilots within the civilization and simulated battle scenarios also held little interest for him.

Only now did he see an opponent worth his attention, and he was filled with enthusiasm.

[Magic Bullet: Life Force Wither]

The grey light struck the primeval mecha.

This time, Ying Tian’s attack finally showed its intended effect.

Although this Magic Bullet, charged with maximum damage, only possessed a maximum power of 600,000, theoretically insufficient to penetrate the defense of the primeval mecha,

it was a magic attack and could ignore some of the primeval mecha’s defenses.

Coupled with its bonus damage against life-based enemies, it achieved an effect similar to true damage.

The head of the primeval mecha withered rapidly upon being hit, turning to ash and dissipating!

However, as the ashes scattered, countless vine-like fibers grew out, intertwining into a new mecha head.

It seemed as though it had not suffered any damage at all.

“This rate of regeneration?!”

“No… the weakened life force is still slowly recovering; what was lost just now was an extra reserve of life force, temporary armor.”

Ying Tian had a moment of realization, yet could not help but reveal an excited expression.

“With such a resilient mecha, no wonder you dare to partake in the support mission alone…”

“Even if you can’t win, you can easily leave.”

“So, will you flee for your life?”

[Magic Bullet: Life Force Wither]

[Magic Bullet: Death Withering]

[Technology Bullet: Cellular Breakdown]

The primeval mecha’s defense was too high, its life force too robust, and it also had the ability to regenerate.

Even though Ying Tian continually attacked, in coordination with the distraction and support fire from the other two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots,

it still took a full three minutes to completely deplete the Armor Value of the primeval mecha!

Throughout this process, Ying Tian grew more and more excited.

It had been over sixty seconds!

The mecha was about to fall apart!

Yet the mecha pilot had not fled; he was still contending!

Could he possibly think he still had a chance to win?

“Let me see what else you’re hiding…”

Ying Tian muttered involuntarily.

Along with the final beam of light from the Spirit Crystal Sharpshooter, the primeval mecha finally shattered completely, turning into countless embers that scattered.

[Talent Trigger: Undying Barehand.]

[Absorbed Mecha: primeval mecha: Zero-Type 1]

[Strength 250,800→290,800]

[Agility 248,900→288,900]

[Defense 282,700→502,700]

[Enigmatism 67,400→107,400]

Ying Tian closely watched the spot where the primeval mecha had been.

The other two Fire Plunderer mecha pilots also immediately fired their weapons, hoping to directly kill the mecha pilot inside the mecha.

However, when the missiles fell into the dust and the steam dispersed,

the golden-red armor plates blocked the missiles, covering the rapidly expanding gears underneath, and in a blink of an eye, bulged into a steam mecha standing twenty-three meters tall!

The spine area on the back of this steam mecha protruded significantly, equipped with six ion jet thrusters.

Extending from both sides of the back were four mechanical tentacles over a hundred meters in length.

It looked bizarre overall, like a toy assembled from various parts.

Ying Tian, however, showed an emotion of excitement.

[Mecha Type: Steam, Alloy Construction]

[Base Strength: Approximately 300,000 (Temporary Bonus, duration unknown)]

[Current Status: Normal State (Core has high-energy reaction, suspected to possess some kind of high-explosive weapon, or attribute surge ability)]

[Type Inference: Main Battle Mecha (Time Force detected)]

[Advice: Proceed with caution, beware of burst weapons and special stances.]

[Threat Level: Moderate]

“Time Mecha!”

Ying Tian licked his lips.

“After consuming a large amount of my energy…”

“Are you finally willing to abandon your turtle shell to reveal your true strength?”
