You said mechs were going to fight monsters, but instead you're destroying stars with your bare

Chapter 105 How Can We Stand Still?
"here we go again……"

Looking at the number, Li Zhe felt his blood pressure rise instantly.

He tried a freshly made, high-quality "elite-grade rotten meat and petal salad".

However, the numbers on the panel remained unchanged.

A new bottleneck has emerged.

“Commander, besides being stuck in a bottleneck, you may also have developed ‘resistance’ to the materials from the 0th layer of the Corrupted Sea Forest.”

Kazuko's voice carried a hint of solemnity.

Li Zhe took a deep breath and calmed down.

He knew very well that he was about to face an even more difficult breakthrough.

To break through the 10.0 power level, another round of dietary therapy is necessary.

This time, perhaps even rarer materials will be needed...

……

Crisis Era 1, July 1st, Tuesday.

Teleported back to Starfish Island, aboard the yacht mothership.

Li Zhe told Xing about his renewed struggle with a bottleneck in his career.

After a series of rapid calculations and deductions, Xing reached a conclusion.

"Commander, you have developed 'resistance' to all known materials in the Level 0 Ghost Domain. Even if you go to other types of Ghost Domains, as long as the materials are still obtained from monsters at the Level 0 level, it will not help you improve."

A semi-transparent energy body of a star appeared before Li Zhe, its golden eyes gleaming with rationality.

"Aside from pursuing a more rigorous breakthrough, you can currently choose a simpler path to becoming stronger—"

"Unlock a more powerful weapon form."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhe's heart stirred.

He recalled a somewhat daring idea that he had always considered.

"Xing, you mean..."

“Yes, Commander.” Hoshino seemed to have seen through his thoughts and gave a direct affirmative answer. “Let Kazuko and I attach ourselves to your Dark Wave Messenger wingman at the same time and perform a ‘trinity’ breakthrough fusion.”

This plan is theoretically feasible, but its practical implementation is fraught with unknowns.

"Kazuko, what's your opinion?"

Li Zhe turned his gaze to the side, to Kazuko, who was wiping his beloved sword "Kikuichimonji".

Upon hearing this, Kazuko paused slightly in her movements.

She raised her head, and a complex emotion flashed in her obsidian-like eyes.

She glanced at Xing beside her, who was as cold and emotionless as an iceberg.

She glanced again at Li Zhe's expectant eyes.

In the end, she sheathed her katana and slowly stood up.

"I...I'm fine."

Her voice carried a hint of barely perceptible tension.

But more than anything, it's a stubborn refusal to give up.

"As long as it makes the commander stronger, I'm willing to die..." Kazuko's face revealed a resolute determination.

Xing remained as rational as ever, simply adding, "Everything is for the Commander."

Seeing these two ship spirits who, despite their mutual dislike, were able to unite in a crucial moment, Li Zhe felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"I won't let you die again." Li Zhe patted Hezi's head.

"Well…"

Kazuko lowered her head, touched her bangs, pursed her lips, and softly hummed in agreement.

"Alright, let's begin!"

Li Zhe summoned the Youbo Messenger wingman.

The jet-black demonic mech stood silently on the deck, radiating a chilling aura.

Hoshi and Kazuko exchanged a glance, and then transformed into two streams of light of different colors.

One gold and one red.

In a rhythmic way, they intertwined and swirled, eventually merging into the body of the black mecha!
"Buzz!!!!"

An unprecedented, terrifying energy, so vast that it distorted space itself, erupted with a deafening roar!

"Please keep your distance; your energy flow is too chaotic."

"Hmph! You're the one who should stay away! The Commander won't like your cold attitude!"

"...Please stay calm, this is a critical moment." "I know!"

Amidst the heated banter between the two ship spirits...

The form of that black mecha underwent an astonishing transformation!

Its size suddenly increased from three meters to five meters tall!
The armor of the machine combines four completely different colors: black, white, gold, and red, yet achieves perfect harmony in an incredible way.

Divinity and demonic nature, majesty and tyranny.

Two extreme qualities coexist perfectly in it.

It exudes a suffocating, supremely oppressive aura!
"This...this is the 'Trinity'?"

Looking at the ultimate mecha in front of him, which was full of ultimate aesthetics, Li Zhe couldn't help but gasp.

Without hesitation, he stepped inside and entered the now more spacious and dreamlike cockpit.

The moment he sat in the driver's seat—

"boom--!!!"

A terrifyingly powerful force surged into his limbs and bones!

On his panel, his combat power was skyrocketing at an unbelievable speed!

Finally, it came to a steady stop at a number that even made his own heart race—

29.97!

Three times the base combat strength!
Holy crap! That's amazing!

Li Zhe felt the immense power within his body almost overflowing, and he trembled with excitement.

However, his joy was short-lived.

"Warning! Warning! Synchronization rate is critically low! Signs of structural instability are appearing! Energy is being rapidly depleted!"

The alarm bells from the stars pulled him back to reality from his excitement.

"Commander, in its current state, this form can only be maintained for a maximum of three minutes before it will be forcibly disintegrated due to energy overload."

three minutes?
Considering their combat strength, they have enough time to get a lot done.

Why was the time so short?

Li Zhe asked with some curiosity.

“Commander, the root cause of the unstable combination lies in the excessive difference in the ‘tonnage’ of the two ships… leading to a serious lack of synchronization.” Xing’s voice carried a barely perceptible hint of embarrassment.

“But there is a way to effectively improve the synchronization rate while maintaining the existing tonnage gap.” Xing’s voice rallied again. “I suggest that we carry out shipboard modernization and upgrades.”

She projected a brand-new mothership upgrade plan.

The required materials are clearly labeled above.

[Star Core Gold] x2; 500 energy points.

"After this modification is completed, the Platinum Star mothership can serve as transforming armor, attaching itself to your mech body," Xing calmly stated.

"You mean... this 50-meter-long behemoth can transform into... a large mecha?" Li Zhe swallowed, feeling his heart race.

"Yes, Commander."

"We have to do it!"

Then we'll fly into the giant ship in transforming motorcycles, and then transform and pilot giant robots...

Hugeness equals justice!

Mechs that exceed ten meters in height are the kind of romance a man should pursue!

Although this material is somewhat difficult to obtain.

But we have to do it no matter how difficult it is, just to get the big robot running!
Speaking of star core gold, it is indeed quite rare.

So far, it has only dropped from "Golden Slime".

However, I have not encountered another one of these monsters since.

Even after returning to the place where I first encountered it, I still couldn't find it.

Just as Li Zhe was deep in thought, He Zi, relying on her mysterious intuition derived from ancient queens, proposed a possibility:
This is a special monster that contains both "treasure" and "desire".

It is perhaps more likely to appear in the core area of ​​the Ghost Realm.

To enter the core area of ​​the Ghost Realm, one must use the Dao Beacon obtained after participating in the auction.

Li Zhe took out this unassuming prop, which resembled a pyramid model, from the spare parts warehouse.

I haven't used this item since I got it from the auction three days ago.

Once this beacon is activated.

The entire planet Blue Planet in Universe 7 will now face off against mech pilots from other universes, some friendly and some hostile...
