MTL - You Agreed To Fight Mechas, But Your Body Exploded Into Stars?-Chapter 112 This is just superficial

Chapter 112 This is just the surface

 The monitored coastal volcano is an active volcano.

 Because it has been active for a long time, local towns restrict people from entering the mountains most of the time. In addition, the number of local residents is small, and the evacuation speed is faster than that of ordinary towns, which makes them quite skilled.

When Jiang Chen flew here in the steam mecha, he could already see buses driving along the road in the distance, and he nodded.

 After receiving the support of the local civilization, he can relax his hands and feet when fighting, and he will have fewer worries -

 You know, he is here to do the upgrade mission!

The very few casualties caused by the abyss monster attack are unavoidable and will not reduce the mission evaluation.

 However, such large-scale civilizational casualties will inevitably lower the mission evaluation.

Even the inherently evil Fire Raider warcasters will try to avoid such incidents considering the benefits of evaluation.

 Not to mention, the Fire Raiders slaughtered high-level mecha masters and plundered the potential of civilization...

 The prerequisite must be that civilization has developed, crossed the abyss, and has the qualifications to spread fire!

 When it comes to leveling up tasks, whether it is a fire raider or a fire transmitter, the purpose is quite the same:

 【Reduce casualties and defeat disasters】

"After all, there are only a few cities that can evacuate people as quickly as here..."

“Coupled with the earthquakes caused by underground monsters, it is becoming more and more terrifying, and will be accompanied by corresponding chain natural disasters..."

 “It must be resolved as soon as possible.”

Jiang Chen piloted a steam mecha, floating in the air, turning on high-energy vision.

As expected, I saw familiar high-energy fluctuations, spreading from the depths of the ground layer by layer, even spreading into the volcano.

At this time, the active volcano has begun to emit billowing smoke due to energy fluctuations, entering an active state, and may erupt at any time.

 There are indeed signs of underground anomalies here.

The issue is…

　　Too deep.

 According to the monitoring and judgment of the Seismological Research Institute, the focal depth of this place exceeds 200 kilometers, and it is a medium-source earthquake.

 Although at the same magnitude, the deeper the earthquake source, the lower the impact on the ground...

 However, the underground anomaly is hidden deep underground two hundred kilometers deep, and it is difficult for Jiang Chen to affect it.

 This is a place that even high-power vision cannot reach!

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

 This promotion trial once again exposed his shortcomings.

Through the cooperation between Zero and Yun, his basic strength, agility, defense, and even recovery speed have been improved.

 However, the capabilities and means appear to be relatively poor.

If it weren't for the lack of detection methods, he could have followed the example of Arno and easily found the source of the abyss disaster and launched a challenge.

If it weren't for the lack of abilities related to earth attributes, he could easily break through the earth, go deep into the ground, and pull out underground monsters to kill them.

“Mecha No. 3 is imperative!”

 Although there is no No. 3 Mecha and the corresponding modules.

Jiang Chen is not completely devoid of coping methods.

 Two shortcomings, the former has been made up with the help of local civilization.

As for the latter, special ability modules that can penetrate deep into the earth and control it can also be obtained by killing abyss monsters!

 Just like the basic trial of the steam world.

Jiang Chen killed those aberration monsters and dropped a large amount of aberration materials and modules.

In the world of Fission, when Jiang Chen killed underground monsters, he also obtained many high-quality materials related to earth attributes.

 It’s just that the monsters that appeared at the beginning were all weak beings with zero-level and first-level strength.

Even with the explosion rate bonus from level-up trials and hope difficulty, the output is extremely **** and not worth mentioning.

As long as Jiang Chen kills a few elite monsters, he might be able to get a series of high-quality modules!

 “Kill monsters, loot modules…”

“From this perspective, mecha masters are actually all ‘predators’.”

“It’s just that the ones you plunder are the monsters of the abyss, not the same kind.”

 …

Jiang Chen waited for a while.

Seeing that the bus was already carrying the townspeople away, I finally stopped waiting and looked at the crater below me.

At this time, thick smoke is billowing here.

 It would be a bit troublesome to dig all the way down and find an abyss monster at a depth of two hundred kilometers.

 Fortunately, this is a volcanic area, and there happens to be a suitable lava channel leading to the ground, which can save a lot of time.

“It’s a little early to take a star bath or a nuclear sauna…”

“You can try the magma bath first.”

Jiang Chen was eager to give it a try and convey his own voice through his characteristics.

“Yun, are you ready to take a lava bath with me?”

　　【Soak or take a bath with the master? 】

 A feeling of shyness, excitement, and excitement came along.

 The jet ports on both sides of the steam mecha's helmet suddenly spurted out two streams of white steam.

 【In the end...I will work hard...】

Jiang Chen: “…”

If I remember correctly, the prenatal training he asked Bai Ying to give Yun should be "High-Inflammation Mixed Cut" and "Hot-blooded Story", right?

 Are you sure there's nothing weird mixed in?

Jiang Chen had a flash of thought, no longer hesitated, drove the steam mecha, fell directly into the crater of the billowing smoke, and was submerged into the hot magma!

 The temperature of ordinary magma is only about a thousand degrees.

 The basic defense of the steam mecha reached an astonishing value of 2,500.

Coupled with the steam mecha's own resistance to high temperatures, without extraordinary characteristics, these magmas are not even qualified to break defenses.

 Completely immersed in it, without losing even a little bit of armor value.

As for moving in magma, it is much more difficult than in water...there is no need to worry about it.

 Whether it is a high force sensitivity attribute or a universal biological force field.

  Can easily solve this problem.

Jiang Chen drove the steam mecha and quickly moved downward along the magma channel.

At the same time, the high-energy induction was turned on, and the surrounding environment was observed through the mecha's eyepiece to prevent any special factors from being missed.

Soon, when Jiang Chen followed the magma channel all the way deep and reached the asthenosphere of more than 200 kilometers, he finally observed a high-energy reaction in the direction of the earthquake source monitored by the institute!

 When this high-energy reaction is reflected in living organisms.

 It is the "life energy" in Master Chao's eyes.

With the help of hundreds of abyss lords, Jiang Chen has become proficient in observing the opponent's life energy intensity through high-energy reactions, thereby roughly guessing his strength level.

“Is it close to the third level of life energy?”

 The world was split into fissures and classified into a second-level abyss by the abyss pattern.

At this time, this underground monster is located in the second-level abyss, but it has life energy close to the third-level strength...

 Putting it in an ordinary promotion trial, I am afraid it can already be regarded as the final BOSS!

 At the same level, it is much stronger than the boss of the tenth day in the steam world [Sir of the Ancient God]!

 However, considering that this is an upgrade trial of [Hope Difficulty] specially reserved for those who wish.

This underground monster may not be the ultimate source of this disaster.

“Even if he is not the final boss, he is definitely an elite monster of Master Luo’s level!”

 “Kill first and then talk!”

Jiang Chen used high-energy induction to lock the opponent's position and swam towards the opponent along the magma.

The other party seemed to be also active in the magma layer. In some way, he predicted the arrival of the steam mecha and came over.

 The two sides met and the first collision quickly occurred.

 In the first trial, the steam mecha simply turned on energy overload and increased its strength attribute to 5,500, which was at a disadvantage.

Jiang Chen also judged from this collision that the opponent's strength attribute was around 7,000.

However, this is not the key.

During the confrontation, Jiang Chen used high-energy vision to discover that the kinetic energy brought by the impact just now turned into ripples through the action of some high-energy force and spread along the magma layer.

  Created a far stronger earthquake wave than before that was not supposed to be caused by 0.45 million forces!

 The steam mecha also suffered more damage.

“Is this some kind of extraordinary ability that can create seismic waves?”

“Sure enough, you can’t fight these monsters underground!”

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

 He did not directly activate the second stage and launch a deliberate punch with hundreds of thousands of power because he was worried about the earthquake——

 Power will spread through the earth.

If you fight recklessly underground, the monster may die, and large-scale towns on the surface may be destroyed by the aftermath.

At this time, the ability of the underground monsters further deepened his thoughts.

 The battlefield must be moved!   …

“Through the magma channel of the volcano crater, enter the underground..."

“Is the defensive performance of this mecha also so good?”

 A general looked at the scene in the picture and spoke in amazement.

The emergence of this strange mecha, in just a few days, completely destroyed and refreshed the human understanding of "force" on this planet!

  Don’t look at the fact that the steam mecha just defeated a few missiles—

If the steam mecha relies on some kind of defense or the strength of its alloy armor, it can take missile damage and remain unscathed...

 Countries will not be so surprised.

  After all, this just means that the missile is not powerful enough. If a more powerful missile is used, it may be possible to destroy this mecha.

but…

 The missile was easily shattered and had no effect at all.

This is what really makes them feel powerless.

Faced with this situation, even if we use more powerful missiles, or even replace them with nuclear weapons that are being developed, what is the point?

The opponent can easily intercept these attacks.

Unable to hit the enemy, no matter how strong the force is, it will be completely ineffective.

 This is a whole other level of force.

 After showing defensive capabilities, the opponent also showed devastating destructive power.

 What the two together mean is naturally self-evident.

 That’s why all countries expressed cooperation so quickly.

At the same time, various countries have also developed an extremely strong desire for this mecha.

too strong!

Just one mecha is enough to overwhelm the civilization and technology of the entire planet. If you can hold it in your hands, wouldn't you be able to become the overlord immediately?

Of course, the lake was still outside as a deterrent, and they did not dare to make any demands on this mysterious man.

 I can only observe the situation and drool at the same time.

 At this time, they remotely observed the actions of the mecha through broadcasting pictures and other methods.

  It is not only to verify the disastrous statement, to cooperate with the opponent's fight against the disaster, but also to observe the strength of the mecha.

 The Earthquake Monitoring Station is also constantly sending news.

“Strong seismic fluctuations were detected, with a focal depth of more than two hundred kilometers…still the same source…”

“After inference, it seems that a mecha encountered him…”

“Wait a minute, the earthquake source is moving, the earthquake source is rising!”

The source of earthquakes that can move frequently has actually verified the mysterious mecha master’s statement—

The small-scale earthquakes that have occurred frequently recently are caused by some strange creatures living deep underground.

Since they can cause small-scale earthquakes, they can naturally gather together to cause large-scale super-large earthquakes that can destroy countries and civilizations.

　To think that civilization is actually in danger.

 The general controlled his mood and stared at the crater on the screen.

The source of the earthquake is rising...

 In other words, the monsters that appear everywhere are about to crawl out of the ground.

 When they pay close attention.

The volcano began to tremble and smoke began to drift away.

The next moment, everyone monitoring this scene, whether they were generals or staff from various countries, were all shocked and lost their voices—

 As the magma spewed out, a huge monster over 300 meters in size broke through the smoke and flew out into the air!

It is as huge as a hill, its surface is covered with rock-like black scales, and hot magma flows on its surface.

 When it fell on the ground, it caused the earth to tremble, and the surrounding town was reduced to ruins in just a few seconds due to the tremors.

Its roar was like substance, dispersing the volcanic smoke, causing the helicopters flying in the distance to observe the situation to stagger and almost fall.

This is the source of the monster lurking two hundred kilometers underground to cause earthquakes and natural disasters?

 Compared with it, the strange monsters that appeared in the city before were barely even cubs!

“If this kind of monster appears in the city, what weapons can be used to deal with it?”

 Generals from various countries could not help but have this idea.

 In an instant, they powerlessly rejected all ideas.

The other party lives two hundred kilometers deep underground. He does not need to show up at all. He only needs to cause an earthquake to destroy human civilization!

 There is nothing humans can do about this!

 It is an invincible existence!

 However, the generals of various countries have just come up with this idea.

Compared with the monster that was over 300 meters in size, the smaller golden-red mecha hit the monster like a golden meteor—

 The second stage, machine soul fusion!

  There is no need to turn on full power, the 60,000 force sensitivity shared with the steam mecha can completely destroy the monster like a beast!

 During this process, because the force is too strong, kinetic energy and shock waves are spread.

The monster, which is more than three hundred meters long, is like a watermelon hit by a bullet. It spreads from the penetration point and explodes with a bang!

Countless flesh and blood were scattered on the ground, and a hot blood rain fell next to the volcano.

  【The enemy general has been defeated by the cloud! 】

 …

　　【Kill the lava beast and obtain the flawless module: molten rock (overclocking). 】

 …

  【molten rock (overclocking)】

　　【Level: Three】

  【Quality: Flawless】

  【Type: hand module, surface module. 】

　　【Effect 1: Improve the fire resistance of the mecha and reduce the fire damage received. 】

[Effect 2: When loaded on the hand module, it can consume mecha energy, release the power of lava, turn flames into lava for attack, or convert the rocks in contact into high-temperature lava. The power is related to mystery and energy (power Upper limit: 20,000)]

【Effect 3: When loaded on the surface module, it can consume mecha energy, create a lava shell, absorb part of the damage, and cause high temperature damage to the enemy when attacked.

 Absorbing damage and power is related to mystery and energy (single absorption and power limit: 20,000)】

　　【Description: I also jumped out of a stone. 】

 …

 Everyone was stunned.

The monster, which was over 300 meters in size and more terrifying than the monsters in science fiction movies, was instantly killed by this mecha...

 Second? !

 “Mecha Master!”

“Have those who were chosen to become mecha masters come back?”

 “We must have this powerful mecha!”

 The generals almost roared when they spoke.

 The other contact personnel received the communication prompt and quickly connected -

 In order to facilitate communication and provide information, various countries have long given Jiang Chen a set of communication equipment.

At this time, Jiang Chen’s voice came from the other side of the communication equipment.

“Continue to monitor seismic fluctuations and look for deeper and stronger earthquake sources.”

　　　…”

The general understood what Jiang Chen meant and spoke in disbelief.

“That monster just now was not the source of the disaster?”

"of course not."

Jiang Chen’s voice came over.

“This lava beast is so weak, it’s just a servant of the real monster.”

 “If it is the real source of disaster…”

“Perhaps even my mecha can’t fight it and will be damaged in the battle.”

"…What?!"

Hearing Jiang Chen’s words.

Everyone feels their scalp is numb.

This kind of powerful mecha can sweep across the surface of the earth, defeat civilization, and kill terrifying monsters in one blow...

Is it possible that the opponent is not the source of the disaster?

How terrible is the real source of disaster? !
