“Abyss difficulty is where it truly begins…”
Jiang Chen, wearing his steam mecha, walked out of the tea house while still pondering the words of the Symbol of the Alliance.
This discussion had almost entirely refreshed his worldview; it was an overload of information.
According to the Symbol of the Alliance,
only by surpassing the Abyss difficulty could Planet Blue Star secure its ticket to entry.
Didn’t that mean that Planet Blue Star didn’t even qualify as a beginner?
Thinking about it, that seemed right.
Since the appearance of the abyss, Planet Blue Star had only experienced a mere twenty years of time.
For a civilization, this was indeed an incredibly brief period.
There’s no such thing as not qualifying at all, perhaps that’s an exaggeration.
But in terms of the abyss, among the many planets and civilizations, Planet Blue Star was merely at a rudimentary stage.
There was absolutely no question about that.
Moreover, Jiang Chen could vaguely sense a certain inexplicable urgency and anxiety when conversing with the Symbol of the Alliance.
If it were merely about being locked at a ceiling with no path to advancement, such emotions would be hard to come by.
It most likely concealed some topics about crises or the like.
Perhaps it was just not to pressure Jiang Chen that they were left unsaid.
“Theoretically, Planet Blue Star should have gotten the ‘ticket to entry’ fourteen years ago.”
“Instead, the situation was forced to yield a Symbol of the Alliance, causing the ‘ticket’ to arrive fourteen years late.”
“I guess it’s for this reason that some problems occurred, like the abyssal monsters or something…”
On this point, Jiang Chen appeared quite relaxed.
The slight urgency from the Symbol of the Alliance suggested that Planet Blue Star still had time.
And for him to clear the Abyss difficulty, all he needed was time.
In just a few days’ time.
Could Planet Blue Star possibly be destroyed?
“Tsk, don’t jinx it, better keep developing instead.”
“Given enough time to grow, no matter how many layers the abyss has, I can break through them all!”
Jiang Chen gathered his thoughts and headed to the business street, casually procuring the materials he needed.
Though he wasn’t lacking in materials, modules, equipment, mounts, and such,
contributions had not entirely lost their value to him.
After all, enhancing and sublimating mecha required the right environment and a variety of materials.
With his current strength, he was far from capable of establishing a mecha enhancement field in places like stars or exoplanets.
And it was even less likely for him to obtain high-level resources like the Spring of Life to provide a suitable environment for mecha enhancement.
“However, as long as I can produce the Supercharge Modules steadily,”
“such a monopolistic top-grade material will render contribution a meaningless number.”
“Everything on Planet Blue Star will be at my beck and call.”
Considering future scenarios,
Jiang Chen spent even more freely.
He directly used fifty thousand contributions to purchase a set of clothes of higher durability,
including undershirts, overcoats, gloves, and shoes—everything one could need.
He wouldn’t have to worry about his clothes bursting again.
As for the previous bodysuit, it suffered excessive damage during the battle with Ice Soul Tyrant, with the output reaching 2nd Rank intensity, surpassing its limit.
It had been completely destroyed, now a thing of the past.
After the shopping, Jiang Chen and Bai Ying returned to their private base.
On the way to the teleportation array formation, he overheard a conversation between two mecha pilots with his sharp hearing.
“…Simon from the Ark Organization also successfully soloed the Hell level.”
“The Age-Old Shadow’s record on the fourth layer has been updated; it seems to be true.”
“Tsk, two geniuses back-to-back.”
“But still, our alliance’s talent is even more remarkable, clearing it seven times straight-through, turning Hell level into a piece of cake.”
“…speaking of which, Simon announced he wants to collaborate with Jiang Chen to clear the Abyss difficulty in the future…”
“…do you think Jiang Chen will agree?”
“He should, right? That’s Abyss difficulty, the highest level not even the Symbol of the Alliance has cleared!”
“They must drop Supercharge Modules, right…”
“My lord?”
Bai Ying saw that Jiang Chen was walking slower and slower, and called out to him.
Jiang Chen snapped back to reality, continued walking, but casually took out his personal terminal.
Simon, who seemed to be doing nothing, had finally cleared the Hell level?
That was something to see for himself.
Opening the alliance forum, indeed there were many posts discussing this event.
But compared to earlier, the mecha pilots of the alliance no longer felt much about Simon’s achievement of clearing the level.
It’s just Hell level, isn’t it?
Our alliance’s prodigy has already grown tired of clearing it; let him have a go too.
Any possible unrest had been quietly dispelled without anyone realizing.
Mecha pilots outside the alliance, as well as those within, could view this matter rather peacefully.
Then, they set their sights on the Abyss difficulty level!
After all, the Hell difficulty level had already been cleared countless times by geniuses of SSS-class stature, each assisted by two support accessories.
At the lower levels of Hell difficulty, some exceptionally gifted SS-class geniuses had formed trios and also had records of clearing it.
It was just that it hadn’t been cleared solo.
The Abyss difficulty level, however, was the true uncharted territory that no one had yet cleared.
For this reason, mecha pilots from within and outside the alliance were discussing whether Jiang Chen or Simon would be the first to clear the Abyss difficulty level.
Or to put it another way, who would be able to clear it and who would not?
No one expected that at this moment,
Simon of the Ark Organization would post a message online.
“Jiang Chen, I’ll wait for you at the 4th Rank.”
A brief sentence, adorned with the symbol of the Abyss and the handshake emoji.
It had already said everything.
Simon of the Ark Organization had actually extended an invitation to Jiang Chen!
He wanted to cooperate with Jiang Chen to clear the Abyss together!
Just like the two mecha pilots by the roadside in Xuntian City.
Many mecha pilots who saw this message couldn’t help but have their hearts race, as if they were about to witness a historical moment.
Perhaps there was no need for contention.
After all, the two geniuses had no conflicts between them, nor any special interactions before.
Their coming together wasn’t something inconceivable.
If the two strongest geniuses were to collaborate at the 4th Rank to conquer the most despair-inducing Abyss, it seemed not impossible at all!
At this moment, even the most conservative mecha pilots felt it was a real possibility to clear it.
Quite a few alliance mecha pilots had even carried this message over to the alliance forum.
Jiang Chen also successfully saw Simon’s message.
He couldn’t help but chuckle and couldn’t resist replying on his personal terminal,
“6.”
The alliance’s personal terminals are bound to one’s identity.
There’s no such thing as anonymity; all are logged in with real names.
Therefore, it didn’t take long for other alliance mecha pilots to notice Jiang Chen’s response.
But when they saw this reply,
Not to mention the international mecha pilots, even those from Xia Kingdom were a bit perplexed.
What does a single “6” mean?
Does he think Simon is very 6?
So is that agreement or non-agreement?
Because Jiang Chen didn’t reply with more information,
They could only guess Jiang Chen’s meaning from various angles.
Before long, the alliance forum was teeming with “6 scholars,” analyzing the significance of Jiang Chen’s single digit.
Some said the six represented agreement.
Some said the six was a compliment to Simon’s prowess.
Some said the six meant let’s fight at the 6th Rank…
The theories were numerous and varied.
These discussions and responses naturally spread to Simon as well.
“6? Jiang Chen, you really are an interesting man,”
Simon said with a slight smile.
Ever since he came to a realization, he increasingly felt that Jiang Chen was his kindred spirit.
It was as if he had found a confidant without ever meeting him, a feeling of mutual recognition.
In a world rife with mediocrity and commonfolk, perhaps only they, as two geniuses, could understand each other.
“How could these commoners guess the thoughts of a true genius?”
“To clear the advancement trials, enhance the mecha, and rise from 1st Rank to 4th Rank while ensuring no loss to one’s potential…”
“Even for SSS-class geniuses, that would take a year’s time.”
“Do you want to surge to the 4th Rank in just six months to collaborate with me?”
“Such audacity, truly worthy of my kindred spirit.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you!”
After responding to the message, Jiang Chen had already put away his personal terminal and returned to the island base via the magic teleportation array formation.
Upon arriving at the beach, he immediately went to the mecha repair lab.
It had been half a day since the primeval mecha had been shattered.
Zero had also been asleep for quite a while; it was time to wake it up.
And then…
Abyss difficulty level?
Let’s be a bit more cautious.
Within six days, I’ll clear it solo.
