Chapter 252: 171 Aren’t You Still Operating a Mecha?_3
Especially Yuu, who, after overcoming the initial shyness, had the most significant growth.
Her endurance and persistence not only surpassed Yun’s but even outstripped Zero’s.
In the life force infusion competition, she won first place!
Jiang Chen initially didn’t understand, but after a deeper connection with the mecha soul state, he grasped the reason—
The growth of the three mecha souls wasn’t without reason.
Their souls, like human souls, were extremely immature at birth and rapidly became stronger through repeated trials.
Yuu, being an Enigmatic Type Mecha, received a higher soul enhancement from Enigmatism, thus affecting the focus of the mecha soul.
That’s why she surpassed Zero.
During this process, Jiang Chen’s approach to nurturing mechas also expanded further—
The mecha pilot system on Planet Blue Star, placed within the civilization of the Purgatory level, was undeniably green.
Although he knew to cultivate mecha souls, thereby guiding the mechas down the path he wanted to shape, his knowledge was limited to that alone.
Sometimes, even if they embarked on the relevant path, the results might not be satisfactory.
Mechas cultivated in this way lack the [Mecha Talent].
A mecha built from scratch, compared to a wild mecha captured via Soul Contract.
It seems to have only the slight advantage of [self-shaping].
This was clearly abnormal.
Could it be that all mecha pilots in the abyss use Soul Contracts to capture abyssal creatures and use them as mechas?
What’s the point of building your own mecha then?
Only when Jiang Chen noticed the increase in strength of Zero’s, Yun’s, and Yuu’s souls through continuous training, did he vaguely see a path—
[Mecha Pilot Talent] comes from the soul.
What about [Mecha Talent]?
It must be closely related to the strength of the mecha soul!
Just like those Legendary Overlords, why do they awaken their special talents after becoming a mecha through a Soul Contract?
Perhaps, it’s because during their growth, they not only enhanced their physical body.
But also tempered a resilient soul and will!
Zero, Yun, and Yuu, these self-built mechas, it’s not that they can’t awaken mecha talent.
It’s because the mecha soul strength didn’t grow enough, they are still in the brewing stage.
Planet Blue Star once cultivated so many mechas, yet not a single one awakened any talent…
The likely reason is they never thought to, nor had a way to strengthen the mecha soul.
Jiang Chen was the same.
The only method he knew of to enhance a mecha soul was through [Mecha Soul Fusion], putting pressure on the mecha soul to constantly reach and break through its limits.
Therefore, even when there was no need for expanded armor,
Jiang Chen would still often initiate Mecha Soul Fusion, giving Zero, Yun, and Yuu their time in the spotlight.
He filled them with life force energy, allowing them to absorb nutrients and grow robustly.
In this process, Jiang Chen didn’t even control the mechas but instead used the Autonomous Intelligence module to cultivate their autonomous combat abilities.
Just like at this moment—
Yuu, under the enhancement of a thousandfold attributes, struggled to persevere and not faint.
While controlling the three-headed dragon, she opened her grisly jaws, brewing Destruction Spheres.
In a flash, the energy converged, and destructive rays burst forth, transforming into three raging beams that struck near the Void Rift.
The Void Amethyst Bugs, being merely 2nd Rank in strength, stood no chance against the 6th Rank intensity of the Destruction Rays, not even as obstacles.
They were consumed by the beams, erased from existence.
With a casual sweep of the three beams, over a hundred thousand Void Amethyst Bugs were killed.
Including 3rd Rank and 4th Rank Void creatures, which also perished within the Destruction Rays, utterly dead.
That was just the first wave of the attack.
As the beams dissipated, Yuu took a brief pause, then launched the second wave of assault!
The third wave, the fourth wave!
After several waves of Destruction Rays, the creatures surrounding the Void Rift were nearly wiped out entirely.
Only some lower-ranked Amethyst Bugs, which were scattered and inconvenient to deal with, remained.
Countless abyss atmosphere surged forward, converting into Abyss Rune information.
[Killing…, obtaining…]
Despair difficulty level, combined with a burst rate in the tens of multiples.
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of production messages flashed by.
“…”
You hordes of abyssal creatures, are you trying to fill my storage with trash loot, to prevent me from bursting top-tier items!
That’s just despicable!
…
Rune Sun.
The God of Holy Light and several God Followers, through divine magic, observed every move on the battlefield from afar.
As He saw many creatures with God Follower strength perish under the destructive breath of the three-headed demonic dragon, with no strength left to resist.
He was not only shocked by the power of the Mecha but also felt it was indeed so.
You didn’t abandon your human body, so aren’t you just operating a Mecha?
