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

Stage 3 Jiang Chen, with his strength alone, had broken through ten thousand.

Furthermore, the high ice damage that accompanied his attacks firmly suppressed the Blazing Starsky Spaceship, leaving it gasping for breath.

The mechanical components that made up the spaceship constantly shattered, with parts of its structure suffering heavy damage!

Luckily, after the Blazing Starsky Spaceship shrank, it still maintained a relatively large size, and minor component damage did not cripple it.

Even so, it could not simply allow Jiang Chen to attack at leisure.

Gears turned, the metal exterior continued to contract, and the whole structure transformed into a form more conducive to flight.

At the same time, the internal power reactor of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship began to increase pressure continuously, with the energy output steadily rising.

Steam and flames spewed out in tandem.

The Blazing Starsky Spaceship’s speed suddenly surged.

Just as it was being struck and sent flying, it directly flew off into the distance!

“…Running away?”

Jiang Chen barely held back.

The boss, seeing that it couldn’t beat him, actually chose to flee, really now!

However, considering that Abyss overlords were intelligent beings, and that Transcenders also knew to set up their nests in the Land of Eternal Day to maintain their regenerative abilities,

it wasn’t hard to understand that when an Abyss overlord was losing in direct combat, they would choose to alter their battle approach.

The key point was…

As a flying spaceship,

during close combat, it would be difficult to utilize its agility, and compared to smaller targets, its flexibility was far inferior.

If converted to straight-line flying speed,

six thousand agility would at least exert the effect of nine thousand agility!

At such a high-speed flight level, even if Jiang Chen’s agility attribute was slightly superior, it would be hard for him to catch up, only able to follow from a distance.

When he slowed down, the Blazing Starsky Spaceship would also slow down its flight speed slightly, maintaining the distance within firing range.

At the same time, the top of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship opened, extending a giant cannon barrel, which locked onto Jiang Chen from afar.

Large amounts of steam began to gush out from the exhaust pipe.

Clearly, to provide power for both flight and the cannon, the power reactor continued to increase pressure, even gradually overloading!

“This is trying to kite me…”

Jiang Chen saw through the Blazing Starsky Spaceship’s plan, but felt somewhat helpless inside.

Agility was dragging him down this time.

He possessed the strength to crush the boss and the defense to resist the boss’s attacks, yet he was left behind by the accelerating boss, unable to strike back.

Secondly, the [Touch of Extreme Cold] module also had significant limitations.

This was a close-combat type Transcendence module; it could only exert its best effect when in close combat contact.

In a situation like this, being kited and unable to make contact meant being completely unable to demonstrate its power.

As for equipment like [Flame Control], [High-Energy Rifle], [Insect King’s Spear], and abilities that could provide long-range attacks…

they couldn’t keep up with Jiang Chen’s growing strength and soon became unsuitable for use.

Take the Insect King’s Spear, an excellent quality 1st Rank equipment.

Jiang Chen now almost at the 3rd Rank strength with ten thousand power, could literally crush it, and in a fight, it would break upon touch.

“Low-ranked mecha pilots, don’t use high-rank weapons not because of level restrictions.”

“But because the attributes can’t drive them.”

“Both the energy required by high-rank weapons and the burden of force are far beyond the limits of a low-ranked mecha…”

“I’m different.”

“If the attributes are sufficient, it’s entirely possible to use external equipment of corresponding levels.”

“I can look for an opportunity later to update and revamp my equipment, to improve long-range attack methods.”

“Moreover, I must make up for my lack of agility as soon as possible…”

“A hexagonal panel is the true path.”

As for now…

Jiang Chen slowed down and retreated, accelerating in reverse.

The Blazing Starsky Spaceship likewise changed direction and chased him down.

Jiang Chen abruptly fired flames to change direction again, seeking to counteract the force.

But due to the long distance, the Blazing Starsky Spaceship also managed to decelerate and then accelerate, maintaining a safe distance easily.

After a bit of probing, he found that he couldn’t escape the battle range.

He finally made a decision.

“You want to fight, then let’s fight!”

Jiang Chen, while rapidly chasing the Blazing Starsky Spaceship, forced it to increase speed and consume power reactor capacity.

He extended his hands forward, utilizing the Touch of Extreme Cold ability to create numerous ice walls, flying with the protection of a giant ice shield.

At the same time, Blood Demon Transformation activated, rapidly converting stamina into Life Force to provide a temporary increase in life limit—

The Blazing Starsky Spaceship’s normal cannon shots could barely break through his defense, and the damage could be recovered in the time it took to breathe.

Thus, to obliterate Jiang Chen, the weapons had to be overloaded.

With the power increased to twice, thrice, or even more than the usual,

ensuring a killing blow without giving Jiang Chen the chance to resist!

What Jiang Chen needed to do now was to strengthen his defense enough to withstand the Blazing Starsky Spaceship’s attacks.

And then, to defend and counterattack!

After all, the power reactor wasn’t a module that could be frequently overused without repercussions.

Once it overloaded and overheated, it had to cool down and rest, or else it would explode.

Thus, the Blazing Starsky Spaceship would definitely fall into a sluggish, paralysis-like state for a time after launching an attack, leaving it vulnerable.

Combining this with the previously felt power of its weapons…

Jiang Chen was ready to compete with the boss.

He would see whether its spear was sharper, or his shield sturdier!

The power reactor of the Blazing Starsky Spaceship was pushed to the limit, the cannon muzzle almost became like a small sun, incredibly dazzling.

Even the cannon mount began to tremble and crack, unable to bear this power.

At that moment, it finally chose to release the attack.

With all the energy turning into a white light, it poured forth.

Almost instantly, it overcame the distance and struck a very thick ice crystal wall!
