YM778.TV Chapter 99 - 89: Is This How You Write a Guide?_1
“A new Age-Old Shadow? Exceeding the upper limit of 150?”
“Boss, this ‘Steam Raging Tide’…”
Facing Jiang Chen’s questions,
Li Xiao gave a definitive reply.
“From Abyss Level 1 to Abyss Level 8, each level has one hundred and fifty Age-Old Shadows.”
“Among them, there is no presence of this ‘Steam Raging Tide’.”
“This is a completely unexplored, brand-new Age-Old Shadow!”
A brand-new Age-Old Shadow?
Jiang Chen’s heart quivered.
Not to mention its underlying significance, the value it brought was immeasurable.
After all, the materials, modules, and items produced by each Age-Old Shadow were completely different.
It was the differentiated output from these one hundred and fifty Age-Old Shadows that formed the current mecha pilot system, as well as the various blueprints for mecha pilots.
Now, a brand-new Age-Old Shadow would naturally bring new materials, modules, and outputs.
It would react with the previous material outputs, thereby significantly expanding the evolutionary pathways of mechas.
Deriving more possibilities!
Perhaps among the new combinations, there was a path to divine-level mechas!
And…
This new Age-Old Shadow had appeared only after clearing the Abyss difficulty level.
Considering the hint of “Open Endless Abyss”,
could it mean that by clearing each Abyss difficulty level, a new Age-Old Shadow would be unlocked?
In that case…
The abyssal world…
truly was the Endless Abyss!
There was simply no known limit or end in sight!
Jiang Chen was shocked.
Li Xiao clearly shared the same thought.
“Only by clearing the Abyss difficulty level can one truly earn the ticket to the Endless Abyss.”
“More Age-Old Shadows will open their doors to us, bringing more mecha combinations and possibilities.”
“That seems reasonable.”
“The universe has countless planets; perhaps countless civilizations will be born…”
“The abyss contains an endless universe—”
“In this infinite abyss, a hundred or two hundred Age-Old Shadows are truly a drop in the ocean.”
Li Xiao exclaimed.
“The Endless Abyss, more mecha pilots…”
“Planet Blue Star has finally gotten on the right track.”
“No matter what lies ahead, it’s no longer just darkness.”
“By the way, after you cleared it, the highest difficulty of Star of Mutation has also changed.”
“From the original [Abyss difficulty], it has become [Age-Old Difficulty Level].”
“If all goes as expected, it should be an Age-Old Shadow generated based on your circumstances before the clear.”
“If you’re willing, you can upload the boss data of the highest difficulty level of Star of Mutation to your personal terminal and create a simple strategy guide.”
“That way, mecha pilots who want to challenge the highest difficulty in the future can have a point of reference.”
“No problem! I’ll organize the guide and upload it to the forum later.”
Jiang Chen’s external scanning device contained database information collected by his predecessors.
Having benefitted from the work of those before him, he naturally would not be stingy with helping future generations.
He also felt a small thrill in his heart.
It was finally his turn to write a strategy guide.
Li Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
He admired Jiang Chen’s character even more than his talent.
Enthusiastic, generous, full of vitality.
It was as if he saw…
the self that had never experienced darkness.
With that thought, Li Xiao spoke up.
“Well, I should also get going to take care of things.”
“You have just cleared the Abyss difficulty level, so you’ll probably be quite busy. I won’t disturb you.”
“If you need anything, just send me a message.”
“Mhmm.”
Jiang Chen nodded, then suddenly remembered something and asked,
“By the way, boss, what kind of Supercharge Module do you need?”
“I’ll help you grind a few as well.”
Clearing the Abyss difficulty level of Star of Mutation was far from the end; it was the beginning!
Jiang Chen planned to tackle a spree of the Abyss difficulty level after handling his current tasks, accumulating enough Supercharge Modules, and then consider promotion.
After all, due to the rules of the Age-Old Shadow,
once a mecha pilot descended into the abyss, they would lose the ability to ascend and could no longer step into the shallower levels of the abyss.
They could only descend deeper and deeper.
Therefore, the accumulation in the lower levels also affected future growth.
Further, with Blue Star Abyss Rune spreading and the base of mecha pilots increasing,
it was estimated that many SSS-class geniuses with exceptional talent would appear soon.
Jiang Chen could invest in some Supercharge Modules and nurture a few SSS-class geniuses, bringing them up to the level necessary to clear the abyss—
even if they couldn’t do it alone, they could try to form teams!
Later on, even if Jiang Chen had descended into much deeper levels of the abyss,
he could still use these geniuses to continuously clear shallower Abyss difficulty levels, increasing the number of shallow Age-Old Shadows and producing more new supercharged modules.
During this process, Civilization Potential would inevitably be improved.
Thus gaining more civilization bonuses.
“[Pioneers blaze the trail.]”
“[Now it’s my turn.]”
This was Jiang Chen’s current thought process.
If he was going to roll a snowball, he would bring the whole of Planet Blue Star with him!
He wanted to see a planet where Blue Star talents were everywhere, and supercharging was as common as dirt!
During this process, giving back through bartering, and creating more Supercharge Modules to rejuvenate figures such as the Symbol of the Alliance for a second time, was also a matter of course.
However…
When Li Xiao heard Jiang Chen’s words, he shook his head.
“Not at the moment.”
“If you want to give me a Supercharge Module, trade it to the rookie mecha pilots of the alliance… I will pay for them.”
“With civilization just having unlocked the Group Diver trait, we’re in a period of rapid development; compared with us old timers, nurturing those talents yields greater benefits.”
