Mecha Battle: Why Do You Use Body to Destroy Stars?
Chapter 276: Someone’s Coming, Feed Everyone with Cakes!_1The matter of the Light of Wonders had already been discussed with Li Xiao by Jiang Chen.
In recent days, the alliance had sped up the injection of the super ability gene serum in preparation for the construction of wonders.
After his return, Li Xiao, upon seeing the news about the authority upgrade of Planet Blue Star’s civilization, also thought of the wonders.
He immediately used his personal terminal to summon the alliance’s upper echelon for an online meeting.
It had only been a little over an hour since the last meeting on “civilization traits”.
The high-rank mecha pilots of the alliance had just started dealing with the many affairs triggered by the [Protector] trait when they were called back again.
The former second in command of the alliance couldn’t help but complain.
“The number of meetings in these recent months has almost surpassed that of the past few years.”
Li Xiao smiled and said, “This is a good thing, it shows that Planet Blue Star is developing rapidly, with each day bringing new changes.”
Many high-rank mecha pilots nodded in agreement, but couldn’t help sighing inwardly.To describe the current pace of development of Planet Blue Star’s civilization as “each day bringing new changes” seemed an understatement.
How long has it been since they crossed the abyss?
Those who once stood at the pinnacle of Planet Blue Star as high-rank mecha pilots now had the feeling that they were being rendered obsolete by the times—
Were they once geniuses of SS-class and SSS-class?
The current SSS-class rookie mecha pilots were already being counted by the “thousands.”
And now, with the addition of the [Protector] trait, everyone could foresee that the SSS-class rating of the basic trials would be completely trampled underfoot.
And that’s just the rating of the trials.
Supercharge Modules, Protector traits, Abyss difficulty level, Legendary Shadow…
Just give a year or two of growth time to the mecha pilots of the new era.
It’s really hard to say how many of the alliance’s high-level members present would still be able to sit here.
“During this period of time, I went through the alliance’s archives and found that there are Rebirth Civilizations in the abyss that allow mecha pilots to be reborn and start over…”
One of the high-rank mecha pilots spoke up.
Li Xiao shook his head.
“That’s a privilege of ancient civilizations, very precious.”
“Even other ancient civilizations need to pay a very high price to trade for the privilege of rebirth.”
“What does Planet Blue Star have to trade?”
“…”
The high-rank mecha pilots showed disappointment in their eyes.
Indeed, compared to those ancient civilizations, the heritage of Planet Blue Star as a newer civilization was too thin.
The Supercharge Modules, treasured by them, would certainly be commonplace among ancient civilizations.
Without the ‘supercharged’ tag, ordinary modules might as well be garbage strewn in the street that no one would bother to pick up.
What do they have to trade with such a gap in material wealth?
“Therefore, we must create wonders!”
This was a virtual meeting projected through personal terminals.
Jiang Chen stood beside Li Xiao, and now, he spoke up.
“Regardless of the level of civilization, the quality of the wonders they possess is the same.”
“Even though our Planet Blue Star has just started, as long as we build a Civilization Wonder, we can obtain things and bonuses comparable to those of ancient civilizations!”
“This is the best way for us to catch up with ancient civilizations.”
“If it’s a wonder of the specialty type, it can definitely be used to trade with Rebirth Civilizations for the privilege of rebirth.”
“Moreover, we can build our own wonders like the Samsara Platform, Netherworld on this planet, deepest Hell, and so on.”
“There’s no need to rely on other civilizations as we would be capable of reincarnation and rebirth ourselves!”
“By then, the elders here will have plenty of ways to make up for deficiencies and rejuvenate for a second spring!”
“…”
Jiang Chen’s speech was like serving up a feast, leaving the high-rank mecha pilots utterly bewildered.
Their spirits surged, and they nodded vigorously.
At that moment, no matter which organization or country these high-level members of the alliance had once belonged to, their hearts reached an agreement.
No one wanted to be eliminated by the times, falling from the clouds into the mud.
As long as they were still in power, no matter the cost, they must build wonders!
Jiang Chen saw their resolute eyes and nodded in satisfaction.
The pitch was complete, it was time to start stoking the fire and cooking.
He touched the Abyss Rune, and a sphere of light emerged in the palm of his hand.
[Light of Wonders]
This ball of light was different from the Light of Hope, as it seemed to contain numerous ethereal shadows.
A great wall stretching for thousands of miles, a golden tower built of massive stones, countless terracotta warriors with lifelike expressions, a Dyson Sphere completely enveloping a star…
With a thought, Jiang Chen clenched his hand.
The light burst forth, transforming into countless lines swirling around him.
Blocks of text surfaced before his eyes.
[Architecture, art, belief, technology…]
[That unparalleled creativity and cohesion enabled civilizations at their peak to forge undying miracles.]
[Even if disasters should strike and civilizations perish, these miracles would not fade, enduring through eternity.]
…
[Current Civilization: Planet Blue Star]
[Person of Hope: Jiang Chen]
[Civilization Traits: Deep Dive, Group Dive, Fire Transmission, Joint Burning, Protector.]
[Civilization Inheritance: Inner Force Traditional Combat, Super Ability Gene, Rune Magic…]
[Civilization Belief: …]
[Civilization Style: …]
[Please select three items to generate the Wondrous Blueprint.]
The elements involved in the construction of Civilization Wonders were too numerous.
Not only did they cover traits, inheritances, beliefs, and styles…
But even the traditional combat and super ability inheritances Jiang Chen obtained from the Earth Cataclysm world, and the Rune Magic Impartation that Li Xiao obtained from the advancement trials, were all included.
All of these would affect the final wonder blueprints created.
Jiang Chen listed all this information.
After a brief debate among the upper echelons of the alliance, including Li Xiao, suggestions were made.
[Fire Transmission], [Protector], [Super Ability Gene].
Belief and style, the two aspects that impact the least and can cause the most dissent, were the first to be discarded.
Within the civilization traits, Deep Dive and Group Dive, as basic traits that every civilization possesses and thus common as dirt, were also filtered out.
Fire Transmission is currently the fundamental backbone of Planet Blue Star’s civilization.
The Protector is currently the greatest boost for the civilization of Planet Blue Star.
Both of these items are very outstanding, so he directly selected them.
The cultural legacy was the most controversial part, with each legacy having its respective adherents, provoking endless debate.
In the end, the reason the super ability gene stood out was very simple—
It was the heritage that showed the fastest effects and had the widest range of applicability.
Of the other options, the inner force traditional combat turned into fitness exercise was still being promoted.
Rune magic was somewhat incomplete and has yet to be fully popularized even to this day.
Planet Blue Star’s technology, on the other hand, was external and could only be used to build external equipment; it could not be brought into the trials or the abyss, greatly limiting its usefulness.
On the contrary, it was the super ability gene serum.
With the genetic information provided by Jiang Chen, the serum was nearly ready for injection by the entire population.
It not only boosted the entire civilization of Planet Blue Star but could also be taken into trials and the abyss, proving to be quite useful.
Jiang Chen approved of the suggestions the others had discussed.
He didn’t make any further changes and confirmed the choices directly.
The next moment, countless rays of light swirling around him began to spin at extreme speed.
Even with Jiang Chen’s vision, he couldn’t see the trajectories of these light rays; he only felt a flash before his eyes as countless rays congregated in his palm, interweaving into a luminescent image.
Upon the vast land, a tower-like structure was erected.
The base area alone covered over ten thousand square kilometers, and it soared to over thirty thousand kilometers high, piercing the sky as if it were a space elevator, reaching the outer orbit of Planet Blue Star.
Atop this towering structure shone a blazingly bright light.
Its light not only illuminated the entire planet like a fixed star but also pierced through darkness and space, shining over the Endless Abyss.
The text also underwent a change.
[Code: Shining Star Torch]
[Type: Wondrous Blueprint]
[Rank: Third Rank]
[Material Requirements: Alien Demon Heart and Soul*30 of the 12th Rank, Eternal Fire Sparks*200 of the 12th Rank, 11th Rank metal materials…]
[Basic Time Consumption: Three thousand Blue Star years.
(The construction time can be reduced when civilization members participate in building.
The more civilization members participating, the higher their ranks, the longer their involvement, and the greater their favor towards the Light of Hope, the more the construction time is reduced.)]
[Wonder Effect: Unknown (The specific effects of the wonder can only be viewed upon completion.)]
[Description: Ignite the soul, light the path ahead.]
“How is it, what kind of Wondrous Blueprint is it?”
At this critical moment, even the high rank mecha pilots couldn’t care less about their image.
One after another, they craned their necks, eagerly looking at the “Star Torch” interwoven from light in Jiang Chen’s hand, wanting to know its specific effects.
But Jiang Chen shook his head.
“Don’t know.”
“The blueprint only specifies the material requirements and the construction time. The specific wonders’ effects can only be known after the wonders are constructed.”
“What?”
Even Li Xiao showed a hint of disappointment.
However, this was understandable.
If just a glance at the blueprint would reveal the wonders’ specific effects, it would be possible to obtain enough [Light of Wonders] tools to try all possible combinations and choose a wonder to construct.
That would cause the wonder to lose its mystique.
“About the requirements?”
Jiang Chen opened his personal terminal and directly entered the blueprint information.
Upon looking at it, the alliance mecha pilots couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Precious?
Starting with several hundred 12th Rank materials, the 11th Rank and 10th Rank materials were countless; this was outrageously exaggerated!
Even if they were to drain the whole Planet Blue Star, they couldn’t possibly gather so many materials!
Currently, the strongest mecha pilot on Planet Blue Star had only reached the 9th Rank!
Plus, the basic construction time was three thousand years…
The history of mecha pilots on Blue Star was only twenty years!
At this time, only Jiang Chen and Li Xiao appeared to be very calm.
“The material consumption and construction time are linked to the current state of the civilization,” Jiang Chen explained.
“Even if we were to change the blueprint, the level of materials required wouldn’t decrease—”
“And actually, we’ve made a profit.”
“We only need a bit of 12th Rank materials to build a wonder.”
“If this were one of those ancient civilizations, the materials and time required would probably be astronomical numbers!”
Jiang Chen looked at Li Xiao.
“Moreover, the big shot recently acquired a supercharged mecha and has greatly increased in strength.”
“The combat power has already reached the 12th Rank, and as long as we find a suitable 12th Rank alien demon, we can obtain these materials…”
“…”
The Symbol of the Alliance has reached the 12th Rank?!
The high rank mecha pilots present already knew that Li Xiao had crossed the abyss.
But they had not expected that not only had Li Xiao crossed the abyss, his strength had also escalated to such an exaggerated level!
12th Rank…
They felt as if they were witnessing the once supreme might blossoming once more.
After the shock and complex emotions subsided, they turned their gaze back to Jiang Chen.
The Symbol of the Alliance wouldn’t become strong without reason.
There was only one cause for such a sudden change.
The Light of Hope had made a move.
Jiang Chen saw their thoughts and said with a smile.
“It’s just some supercharge upgrade tools, which probably aren’t very valuable to ancient civilizations.”
“Their value can’t compare to that of the wonders.”
“So… shall we construct it?”
“…Construct!”
The alliance’s higher-ups exchanged glances and made their choice without hesitation.
Even if it meant spending all their resources, even if they had to toil every day, they would construct the wonder!
