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

Chapter 88 Chapter 85: Crossing the Abyss, My Growth Far Surpasses Yours!_1

Translator: 549690339

Jiang Chen at full strength completely suppressed the Transcender with his explosive power.

His strength, reaching an incredible seven thousand points, absolutely crushed the Transcender, pressing them against the Roots Giant Tree. His Ice-Fire Twin Fists kept striking, leaving the Transcender gasping for air.

“Judging by the feel…”

“The Transcender in its demon form should have a physical strength of around 5500.”

“It’s just over a thousand more than the Uncontrollable Titan at Hell difficulty level, far from double.”

While battering the Transcender, Jiang Chen calculated its strength.

This method of calculation not only allowed him to get a more intuitive feel for the strength levels of the Transcender,

but also to supplement the alliance’s data archives after leaving the abyss.

The monster attributes and combat strategies he’d obtained with scanning devices were the results of previous mecha pilots’ exploration.

As for the possible anomalies after clearing the abyss difficulty level, which might render these pieces of information obsolete…

Record first, think later.

“I’ve launched so many Continuous Attacks, even found and shattered one or two Life Force Cores, yet its strength has not diminished, and its recovery rate is extremely fast.”

“If I hadn’t relied on [Touch of Extreme Cold] and [Flame Control], and used pure strength alone, I might have been merely scratching an itch for it, unable to keep up with its healing.”

“Defense should be considered seven thousand.”

“As for agility… I could grab it straight away, starting with a combo, not feeling over five thousand, probably around four thousand.”

Strength 5500, agility 4000, defense 7000, Enigmatism 0.

These attributes were much higher than that of the Uncontrollable Titan at Hell difficulty level, yet they hadn’t doubled in full.

Not to mention, the Transcender could absorb Star Radiance, growing its attributes continuously.

Theoretically, if it had started growing from the Symbol of the Alliance’s 1st Rank period, it would have already been growing for nearly twenty years by now.

Even if the growth rate was slow, it should have increased significantly in attributes.

It couldn’t possibly be this weak.

Clearly, the Transcender hadn’t shown all its power.

Sure enough, after being suppressed for a moment, the Transcender suddenly disintegrated into numerous vines that flowed apart.

When the vines reconvened, its appearance had undergone a massive change.

The Transcender’s original form stood four meters tall, not even as tall as the former “Roots Titan.”

Now, its size increased tenfold!

Its height exceeded forty meters, and its body went from a human form to something much more complex, exuding a unique beauty of ultimate combat power—a crocodile-like head, a muscular body, indestructible claws, wings that blotted out the sky, as if a green dragon-man had stepped into reality.

“Perhaps this form is more appropriate to confront you,” it said.

The huge body brought forth even greater strength.

The sky-blocking green wings increased its flight speed.

When necessary, it could even temporarily disassemble and reorganize, shedding cumbersome body structures to improve its own agility.

At this moment, the Transcender’s attributes skyrocketed.

Strength over 8000, speed over 6000, defense still 7000, Enigmatism 0.

This time, it was Jiang Chen who found himself at a disadvantage.

With strength 1000 lower, he couldn’t suppress the Transcender, often being knocked back.

However, his main means of output were his Ice-Fire Twin Fists.

Belonging to the mystical side of elemental damage, they could burst out immense damage instantly, penetrating the Transcender’s defense, shattering its Life Force Cores within.

The lack of strength didn’t much affect his capacity for output.

On the contrary, the lack of agility affected his hit rate, frequently missing attacks or failing to elicit elemental reactions at the right moments.

Fortunately…

Jiang Chen was somewhat scraping through.

The Transcender scraped even harder.

As an abyss overlord on the biological side, it lacked special magic moves and terrifyingly powerful technological weapons.

It could only transform itself, imitating organisms, and harness those imitative organs to multiply its strength into attacking power.

For example: biological stingers, crocodile bites, mantis slashes…

Well, due to the limitations of Star of Mutation itself, the range of biological genes it absorbed and digested wasn’t too rich.

Lacking genes from powerful beings like mythical creatures, star swarms, or cosmic entities.

Therefore, the potency of its powers was correspondingly restricted.

Such attack methods were certainly enough against ordinary enemies.

But what it faced was Jiang Chen—

Keep in mind that [Steel Body], [Flame Control], [Touch of Extreme Cold], and other Transcendence Modules provided a bit of resistance along with their power boosts.

Even if each contributed a small amount, they added up to a multiple of tens!

At this time, Jiang Chen not only had a defense of nearly eight thousand four hundred points on the panel,

his resistances in all aspects also far exceeded those of same-rank mecha, even surpassing 2nd Rank mecha.

The biological stingers metamorphosed by the Transcender piercing into his body caused hardly a ripple, almost ineffectual.

Physical attacks like slashes and bites barely left a shallow wound, which would start healing and stop bleeding the next second.

In the process of attacking, the Transcender had to bear the effects of [Thorns Overgrowth].

Stacked 39 times, Thorns Overgrowth’s upper limit of single-hit damage had climbed from 100 to 3900.

The upper limit of single-hit life steal also went from 5 to 195!

The rate at which Jiang Chen recovered life while basking in the sun was also less than 160 points!

In other words.

When the Transcender bit down,

Jiang Chen stole more life force from its mouth than he lost.
