Chapter 400: Position of Strength (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The dense energy laser cannons formed a net of fire, heading towards Ning Shi’s Ruyi Mecha.
Facing the surging firepower, Ning Shi had no fear. He had already used 28 potential points and fused three brain nucleus characteristics.
His brain nucleus now possessed four characteristics.
I The fusion of the biochemical characteristic has been successful. The host has 36 brain nuclei. When operating a biochemical mecha, the sensitivity of the biochemical mecha will increase by 360%. ]
[ The fusion of the destructive characteristic has been successful. The host has 36 brain nuclei. When the mecha controlled has a weapon module, the destructive power caused by the weapon module will be increased by 360%. |
I The fusion of the power characteristic has been successful. The host has 36 brain nuclei. When the mecha controlled has a power module, the conversion efficiency of the power module will be increased by 360%. ]
I The fusion of the hardened armor characteristic has been successful. The host has 36 brain nuclei. When the mecha controlled is at will, the defense of the mecha will be increased by 360%. ]
The last three brain nucleus characteristics were all derived from Ball’s calculations. They were most suitable for Ruyi Media’s brain nucleus characteristics. In order to gather these characteristics, Ning Shi also spent some effort.
Now that the four characteristics had been combined into one , and the Ruyi Mecha had also undergone two deep maintenance and improvements, Ning Shi’s own Physique and Spiritual Power had also reached the limit.
Ning Shi was confident that his strength would not lose to any titled mecha master.
He could use this opportunity to assess his own strength.
The firepower of the King of Firepower was indeed very fierce. Once this mecha was given an opportunity to attack, its firepower would come in waves without stopping.
Ning Shi kept dodging, occasionally taking the opportunity to counterattack.
However, under the firepower of the King of Firepower, the Ruyi Mecha still focused on dodging and defending.
The King of Firepower’s attack continued for nearly half an hour. The planets and meteorites around Ning Shi had disappeared. Finally, Ning Shi felt the King of Firepower’s attack starting to slow down.
Jiang Qingyun also sensed that something was wrong. He did not expect Ning Shi to be so tenacious, to be able to pilot the mecha and hold on for so long under his firepower.
Now that the attack had failed, Jiang Qingyun s confidence was shaken. He was considering whether to retreat.
Just as he was hesitating, the Ruyi Mecha flashed and appeared in front of the King of Firepower.
Jiang Qingyun was very puzzled. “Ning Shi’s mecha is the same as mine. They are both long-range mecha. Why did he come so close to me?”
The weapon system of Ning Shi’s mecha suddenly began to change. The barrels disappeared, and a 30-meter-long giant battle blade suddenly appeared. The battle blade slashed across quickly, bringing with it a wave of energy fluctuations.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The King of Firepower was caught off guard and was slashed in half from the left shoulder to the right hip.
The broken mecha was affected by the helium energy released by the battle blade, and it was instantly charred black, emitting sizzling sounds.
Jiang Qingyun’s mind went blank. Ever since he became a mecha master, he had always been suppressing his enemies with fierce long-range firepower. He had never encountered a close-range battle.
The King of Firepower was not good at close combat.
Moreover, this was the first time Jiang Qingyun had seen a mecha that could change its weapon module!
He had seen mechas that could both attack from a distance and engage in close combat. However, those mechas were all equipped with both long-range weapon modules and close combat modules.
There had never been a long-range weapon module that could be directly transformed into a battle blade like the Ruyi Mecha.
Ning Shi did not pay attention to Jiang Qingyun’s shock. The Ruyi Mecha extended its sharp claws and directly grabbed the power core of the King of Firepower, violently pulling out the helium power core of the King of Firepower.
Seeing Ning Shirs actions, Jiang Qingyun seemed to wake up from a dream. He shouted through the King of Firepower, “You can’t do this. You’ve destroyed the King of Firepower and triggered the Jiang family’s alarm system.
“Within an hour, an army will come to destroy you.
“If you still want to live, let me go and return the helium power core to me. I can plead for mercy on your behalf!”
Ning Shi was unmoved. He held the helium core in his mecha’s palm and asked a question, “Is your status very high? Would the Jiang family mobilize the army to take revenge for you?”
Jiang Qingyun did not suspect anything. In order to save his life, he said anxiously, “Of course. The Jiang family only has a total of 908 titled mechas. I am one of them. Every titled mecha master is the most precious asset of the J iang family.
“Moreover, the King of Firepower is ranked in the top 100 among the Jiang family’s titled mecha. I’m a first-grade deacon with the highest status in the Jiang family. Release me quickly, and I swear to the heavens that I won’t pursue your reckless behavior today.
“Not only that, but since you have such strength at such a young age, I can recommend you to become the Jiang family’s adopted son. From then on, you will be a fish leaping through the dragon gate and become a high-ranking figure of the Jiang family.”
Ning Shi did not comment on Jiang Qingyun’s suggestion. He continued asking, “If 1 were to become an adopted son, whose adopted son would I be? The adopted son of the First Master, Jiang Shan Wufeng?”
Jiang Qingyun replied, “That’s right. He’s the master’s adopted son. The master piloting a Star Mecha is a hundred times more powerful than a titled mecha master. If you join master, you’ll have a chance to inherit the Star Mecha and become the overlord of the First Star Field.”
In order to save his life, Jiang Qingyun started to spout nonsense. Ning Shi was not a fool. If he became the Jiang family’s adopted son, without the Jiang family’s bloodline, how could he inherit the Jiang family’s most precious Star Mecha?
Moreover, if he let Jiang Qingyun go, the chances of him and Jiang Qingyun reconciling the past was almost zero. After Jiang Qingyun recovered, he would definitely use the Jiang family’s power to take revenge on him.
Ning Shi would not do such a stupid thing.
Ning Shi asked the last question, “I’m the controller behind Wei Yanping, the actual controller of the origin planet. Does the Jiang family know about this?”
Jiang Qingyun seemed to want to stall for time, so he said honestly, “No, Wei Yanping was the one who took the initiative to tell me about this. I felt that there was something to be gained from it, so I didn’t tell the family.
“Let me tell you…”
Jiang Qingyun rambled on for a long time, but Ning Shi did not listen at all. He nodded in satisfaction and said, “Very good, you can go in peace!”
After saying that, the Ruyi Mecha punched out, directly smashing the pilot cabin of the King of Firepower Mecha into pieces. Jiang Qingyun’s body was also destroyed.
Ning Shi had already obtained the information he wanted.
In the battle with Jiang Qingyun, Ning Shi allowed Jiang Qingyun to attack for half an hour because he wanted to know the strength of a titled mecha master.
Ning Shi weighed the pros and cons. With his current strength, he could defeat the King of Firepower Mecha in a few moves with the Ruyi Mecha.
According to Jiang Qingyun, the King of Firepower Mecha was one of the top 100 titled mecha in the Jiang family. Ning Shi estimated that his current strength had definitely surpassed the realm of titled mecha masters. He should not be any weaker than the number one master of the Star Mecha, Jiang Shan Wufeng.
Ning Shi had just checked Jiang Qingyun’s information and found that his spiritual power was at 60 points, which was the limit. His physique was weak at 32 points.
However, in terms of the mecha master’s strength, if one’s spiritual power reached the limit, one should be considered a big shot whose strength had reached the limit of the Titanium Pole World. Ning Shi estimated that as long as one was a titled mecha master, their spiritual power would reach the limit.
There were 1311 life planets in the entire First Star Field. The planet with the most titled mecha masters was the planet where the Jiang family was located. There were more than 1000 titled mecha masters. The other planets had more than 3000 titled mecha masters. There were about 4000 titled mecha masters in the First Star Field.
There were strong and weak mecha masters in the Seven Star Fields, but there were more than 20,000 of them.
With more than 20,000 people coming into contact with the extreme power of the world’s development, the Titanium Pole World’s accumulation could not be said to be lacking. No wonder it was preparing to attack the large world.
However, even though everyone had reached the limit, the difference in combat strength was still very large.
The same 60 points of spiritual power, but after piloting a mecha, the resulting combat power was sometimes worlds apart.
It was like two adults with the same strength, one holding a wooden stick and the other holding a machine gun. Their combat power was completely different.
The body value was only the foundation. The tools and techniques to fully utilize the body value were also crucial.
In this aspect, the mecha master system of the Titanium Pole World was very outstanding, especially in terms of physical attacks. The actual destructive power of the mecha had already far exceeded the limit of 60 points of vitality.
However, in terms of mental strength, the mecha masters of the Titanium Pole World only had defensive abilities and no offensive abilities. This was the weakness of the mecha master system.
Now that Ning Shi had reached the peak of the mecha master’s power system, he had a deeper understanding of mecha masters.
After figuring out his own strength, Ning Shi changed his plan. He put all the remains of the King of Firepower, including the helium core, into the system backpack, and then flew toward the planet where the Jiang family was located..
