Chapter 247: Chapter 169 Preparing for Promotion, Despair-level Trial_1
Planet Blue Star civilization, Star Base.
Jiang Chen was preparing for his rank upgrade trial.
As for repair tools, the mecha-pilot symbiosis trait had improved their effectiveness by unknown folds, making them completely obsolete.
For weapons and external equipment, he had farmed plenty in the Legendary Shadow, so there was no need for special preparation.
Jiang Chen’s focus was on special equipment:
[Star Energy Extractor], [Universal Element Converter], [Miniature Planetary Modifier], [Basic Ecology Conservation Instrument], [Ecosphere Protection Array Formation]...
These devices were a combination of Planet Blue Star technology, magic impartation, and abyss technology, all of which were quite practical.
Among them, the first half of the devices were mainly applied to [mecha enhancement] and [mecha rank upgrade].
They could provide an appropriate environment for mecha rank upgrade by consuming mythical material under the support of abundant energy—
After all, unless something unexpected happened,
Jiang Chen would soon complete the rank upgrade task in the trial, unlocking the mecha’s upper limit and mecha slots.
The remaining time would be spent hunting and grinding for a large amount of resources.
At that moment, if it were to be limited by environmental issues, like the last rank upgrade trial,
and he had to wait until the end of the rank upgrade trial to return to the real world before he could evolve his mecha,
that would be too uncomfortable.
It would be better to find on the spot, or simply create the right enhancement environment right during the rank upgrade trial.
It saves time and is convenient!
Moreover, Jiang Chen had stacked his attributes to the 7th Rank level. Added to that, the Baptism of Fire module provided by the primeval mecha, which granted an abundance of flames and high-temperature resistance,
allowed him to quickly recover his life force through star energy baths.
The energy needed for the enhancement devices could also be swiftly acquired by finding nearby stars.
The latter half was for the protection of planetary environments.
Jiang Chen had finished all the preparation work.
With that thought in mind, he casually took out his personal terminal and called Li Xiao.
He inquired about the current state of the mecha pilots on Planet Blue Star—
With the group dive privilege, one could only know how many mecha pilots had crossed the abyss, but not which ones were challenging it.
After Li Xiao finished describing the current development status of Planet Blue Star,
Jiang Chen then spoke up.
“Following this trend, by the time I return from the rank upgrade trial, Planet Blue Star should be able to ascend to Level 3 Authority.”
“Boss, please speed up the progress during these days and try to fully popularize the gene serum.”
“I’ve got something good, and I’m sending you the details now.”
“Once Planet Blue Star ascends to Level 3, it will come in handy.”
“Something good?”
Li Xiao, curious, opened the message, and virtual text appeared above the terminal.
[Light of Wonders: Comes from 7th Rank Legendary Shadow...]
Just from the first line of text, Li Xiao couldn’t hold back.
“Jiang Chen, you’ve reached the 7th Rank?!”
Legendary Shadow required crossing the abyss and reaching at least 2nd Rank to unlock.
Currently, at Planet Blue Star, those mecha pilots who had crossed the abyss were still at the 1st Rank abyss, gathering materials and enhancing mechas.
Even the ones progressing the fastest had just started their rank upgrade trials.
And they were still some distance away from reaching the 2nd Rank.
So while Jiang Chen was causing storms in the Purgatory level, Planet Blue Star civilization was in a state of serene harmony.
The mecha pilots of Planet Blue Star only knew that Jiang Chen was grinding the recently released Legendary Shadow.
They had no idea of his actual progress and situation.
Nor did they know that he had already breezed through challenges at the 7th Rank difficulty!
