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

Essentially, it is just to urge talented mecha pilots not to slack off and to strive hard.

As for the daily accumulated contributions…

If they are not paid immediately, it is almost as if they were nonexistent.

After all, once one reaches the status of a 4th Rank mecha pilot and completes the mecha’s second sublimation, it is nearly like accomplishing a class transition.

These little bits of contribution can be easily regained by simply clearing the abyss a few times.

Jiang Chen understands this principle now.

Even though he is still a 1st Rank mecha pilot.

He has already thoroughly crossed the class barrier, reaching a stage similar to that of an 8th Rank mecha pilot, where one can disregard the monetary system and purely barter with goods.

Li Xiao brought up this matter precisely to turn this point into a solid reality!

“To you, contributions have already lost their meaning——”

“After all, as the child of hope who has cleared the abyss and opened up a path for civilization, your contribution to Planet Blue Star is immeasurable.”

“From now on, no matter what you need, want to purchase, or wish to obtain.”

“The alliance will pay the price for you.”

Along with his words,

Jiang Chen’s personal terminal vibrated slightly.

Looking down, he saw that the contribution value, which had been over one hundred thousand, had changed.

Only one symbol was left.

Now he truly had infinite resources!

Theoretically speaking, even if Jiang Chen now demanded all the materials, modules, characteristics, and items from the Void Alliance,

Li Xiao would agree without hesitation.

Of course, that’s just a theory.

Not to mention that Jiang Chen has no use for all that junk, and given the alliance’s generosity towards him, he would not abuse the system.

It’s like going to a buffet and only taking what you need.

Li Xiao continued,

“Additionally, even though you have cleared the abyss, your rank is ultimately too low, and your strength has not yet grown.”

“To prevent any accidents, Bai Ying will continue to stay by your side, providing protection.”

“Until you have the ability to protect yourself.”

Bai Ying?

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but glance at Bai Ying, who was blinking beside him.

It’s not that he disliked this slightly airheaded mecha loli, after all, she had taken care of him for nearly a month, and he had gotten used to it.

The main question was…

Why wasn’t he being protected by an 8th Rank mecha?

Bai Ying seemed to feel Jiang Chen’s gaze and started to speak, but it was Ruan Mingyu’s voice that came through.

“What’s that look for? Even if you’re a big shot now, you can’t belittle Bai Ying like that!”

“My Bai Ying is one of the few Time Mechas on Planet Blue Star, and in terms of protective ability, even 8th Rank mechas are no match for her!”

Hmm, previously there were too many bosses around, and 7th Rank rookie Ruan Mingyu was trembling with fear, pretending to go offline and snooping stealthily.

Now that she saw the bosses were gone, she spoke up to defend Bai Ying’s honor.

Li Xiao also nodded slightly.

“That’s right, time attributes are full of uncertainties, and there are only three Time Mechas on the entire Planet Blue Star.”

“Bai Ying is one of them and has sublimated a Time Stop module.”

“No matter the enemy, she can instantly stop time, teleport you to safety, and send me your coordinates to summon my spatial mecha…”

Shh…

One of only three time mechas on Planet Blue Star has been cooking, cleaning, and doing household chores for him every day?

Jiang Chen had thought Bai Ying was on the maid route!

After Li Xiao finished, he glanced at Ruan Mingyu and frowned slightly.

“Didn’t I tell you, during the protection period, the mecha’s ownership is to be completely transferred to the newcomer?”

“What’s going on here?”

Bai Ying’s gaze flickered, and Ruan Mingyu logged off on the spot.

She had been following the rules, connecting to Bai Ying only when Jiang Chen requested communication.

The main reason was that [Clearing the Abyss difficulty level] was such a shocking piece of news.

For a moment, she forgot everything else and logged in at the first opportunity, eager to find out what had happened.

Li Xiao knew the reason and didn’t criticize her too harshly, telling Bai Ying,

“Bai Ying, remember to tell her, not to repeat this.”

“Bai Ying understands.”

Seeing Bai Ying nod,

Li Xiao looked at Jiang Chen, his gaze softening again.

“By the way, your clearing the Abyss difficulty level not only brought [Civilization Privilege].”

“When I touched the Abyss Rune, I found that the replica of the Age-Old Shadow had also undergone a corresponding change…”

On hearing this, Jiang Chen remembered the two notifications received at settlement:

One was to create Age-Old Shadow based on Abyss fragments.

The other was to open new Endless Abyss levels according to the depth of the Abyss cleared.

What did this indicate?

He touched the Abyss Rune, opened the [Age-Old Shadow] category, and quickly skimmed through it.

To his surprise, in the Abyss Level 1, where there were originally only one hundred and fifty Age-Old Shadows,

a hundred and fifty-first had shockingly appeared!

Named [Steam Raging Tide]!
