Mecha

The most powerful cutting-edge weapon of the Human Alliance. It unites in perfect harmony all the technological and cultivation advances creating a powerful techno-magical weapon that helps maintain the current state of the conflict against the Cosmic Lifeform Alliance, thanks to the fact that it allows level one mystics to demonstrate level ten mystic power.

## Summary

Created as weapons of war to change the course of the conflict against the Cosmic Lifeform Alliance. Grand Arcanists joined hands with Undead Immortals, and they developed a special magical weapon! This was when constructs upgraded into mechas.

Regardless of whether it was cultivation or the Arcane, the majority were low-level Extraordinaries. Within the military, discipline was key. This caused a paradox regarding the freedom of high-level cultivators.

In fact, even if the Human Alliance increased its population, it was difficult to produce a lot of high-level cultivators. As such, the alliance was reluctant to send them to the battlefield.

The emergence of mechas resolved this problem quite well!

Even the most basic Gundam series only required a level one Mystic to pilot. With it, they could have destructive power equal to a level ten Mystic!

Training mecha pilots from low-level cultivators was much less costly than sending their Undead Immortals and Grand Arcanists to the battlefield.

Therefore, mecha technology was very popular, and there were constant innovations.

The Human Alliance’s best science and technology resources were the Undead Immortals and Grand Arcanists. And the strongest military force in the alliance was its large interstellar warship fleet and the vanguard mechas!

Even the lowest grade can contest a level ten Mystic. This was equivalent to ancient cultivation’s Golden Core stage. No matter what, it would fall safely into the middle class of cultivators. In ancient cultivation, Golden Core cultivators were strong enough to become the head of a sect, changing their status completely. Even the most basic Gundam series only required a level one Mystic to pilot. With it, they could have destructive power equal to a level ten Mystic!

Theoretically, even though a level one Mystic can pilot a mecha, it is generally accepted that those with higher cultivations are better candidates. On top of that, there’s still a technical skill.

At present, the military’s standard equipment is the Gundam-K9999, known for its stable performance and strong compatibility with auxiliary weapons! Its general combat power is at level fourteen!”

The K9999 has strength equivalent to Golden Core perfection. Furthermore, the mecha pilots are only level five Mystic. Truly terrifying

“Special mechas have combat power at level fifteen and above. Recently, Professor Fu Hongxue of East Dragon University has announced the latest mecha model developed by him, the Blood Dragon. Its all-around performance has increased by 33.5%, and the military has plans to place an order. With this piece of good news, some military stocks have risen…

As for why the Gundam series was so prevalent, it was simply because it was cheap!

Equipment for the military could not be overly expensive. It could only prioritize a balance between performance and price. Without question, the K9999 was currently one of the best on the market at this.

Of course, within the cutting-edge mecha research labs, there were stronger mechas around, such as the Blood Dragon.

Even though there was no specific data on it, Fang Yuan estimated that it should have combat power comparable to or even exceeding Undead Immortals and Grand Arcanists.

“This isn’t the most terrifying! The most terrifying is that in a real crisis, those Grand Arcanists and Undead Immortals will be the ones to pilot the mechas on the battlefield. Their combined power will absolutely be more than enough to cause shocking changes!”

## Mecha Control

Having precise judgment and the ability to calculate continuously was a feat that was out of reach for the vast majority of mecha pilots. Except true aces!

## Mecha Spiritual Techniques

“Mechas require at least Elite-grade before they can use spiritual techniques. They are specially made to be able to resonate with the mecha pilot! And special construction is imperative. Due to the prohibitive price, standard soldiers have never had them. There are also some issues with the Dao of Array… Of course, in modern times, that would be the research into the talismans of integrated circuits!”

“By using the **Dao of Talismans** to inscribe the **Dao Patterns** of the corresponding spiritual techniques onto the mecha beforehand, when the mecha pilot uses the spiritual techniques, the mecha would then use the technique through synchronization!

“This type of technology has very high requirements for the inscriber. It even gave birth to an entire profession called mecha inscriber! Each job is expensive!

“The better the inscriber, the more **Dao Patterns** they can inscribe onto the mecha’s limited space! These types of mechas would then be able to use many spiritual techniques. Their prices will multiply for each additional spiritual technique!”

There was also an issue with load. For example, Instructor Ya Ge’s Black Moon model had the Immovable Mountain Dao Art inscribed by an ordinary inscriber. If more techniques were added, then it would affect the power of the already present dao art.

However, if a true master had been able to add a speed or attack-type dao art on top of the Immovable Mountain, the outcome of today’s fight might have been different.

Unfortunately, these types of experts would never work on General-grade mechas. The least they would settle for would be King-grade.

“For King-grade mechas, it is best to inscribe magical powers! Their patterns are more complicated, but their power is greater as well…”

“Resonance is the research topic of high-grade mecha!

“According to refiners, mechas… are, in essence, large magical weapons! You can train their spirits to connect with the mecha pilot’s will and unleash great power! A few mecha pilots had followed the examples of ancient cultivation and mixed their own flesh and blood into their mechas. These types of mechas often perform well, but research data to back up their actual efficiency is lacking…

“Renowned mecha engineer Fu Hongxue has stated that the perfect mecha is built by its pilot… However, this theory remains in the conjecture phase. There has never been a mecha pilot who was simultaneously proficient in the study of piloting, propulsion, materials science, energy, and Dao Pattern inscriptions…

“Professor Lan He of Sky University has expressed the opinion that Fu Hongxue’s method is the reverse of progress, incorporating all the drawbacks of ancient cultivation! The Scientific Cultivation Method has already proven that specialization is mainstream in today’s cultivation world…”

The Undead Immortals of the East inscribe immortal technique **Dao Patterns** on their mechas. The Arcanists of the West use **legendary arcane spell arrays**

## The Blood Dragon Series

The Blood Dragon series is a bionic and biochemical mecha series.

*Fang Yuan looked at the red mecha in front of him. It was large, standing at a full twenty meters. The mecha reflected a special blood-red luster, and it was decorated with dragon-shaped patterns, looking like a warrior that was about to enter the battlefield.*

The Blood Dragon series has always walked the path of fusion between biochemistry and mechas in the hopes of reducing cost… The self-recovery ability of biological organisms leaves much for us to learn… For now, my Blood Dragon’s performance can rank in the top three among the King-grade mechas, yet its resource consumption is the least of all. The secret lies with flesh armor!”

“Bionics,” Fang Yuan guessed.

“That’s right!” Fu Hongxue nodded. “Mechas are, in fact, large magical weapons. There are some mecha pilots who intentionally mixed in their own flesh and blood in the forging furnace in the hopes of increasing the resonance… Do you know what happens eventually?”

“The refinement of life? Mechas that possess true life and wisdom?” Fang Yuan was impressed.

“I have a dream!” Fu Hongxue said emotionally. “I hope that all of our high-level cultivators will no longer need to risk their lives on terrifying cosmic battlefields. I hope that they will be able to do research in the main base and leave such missions all up to the Blood Dragon mechas!

“As you know, remote operation suffers interference by the complex universe environment and the various cosmic lifeforms. Therefore, to truly realize unmanned mechas, the only option is to bestow life and intelligence to them!”

“However, freedom of life is the most difficult to control. How would you guarantee that the mechas won’t betray us?” Fang Yuan asked.

“It’s too early to think about this problem… However, I have an idea. We can use prohibitions and preset programs to plant self-destruct measures in them to control them…” Fu Hongxue shook his head. “Besides… our research is still stuck in the initial phase of providing a few biological characteristics to the mechas. We’re still far from our goal…”

“This is already impressive enough! If you could produce them in bulk, they would be sure to change the tide of battle!”

The cost of building mechas had always been a significant issue.

Fu Hongxue’s research had circumvented this restriction incredibly, greatly reducing the cost since they no longer required rare materials.

Furthermore, the mechas had a certain degree of self-recovery, decreasing the cost of maintenance dramatically as well.

“The key to success is also stuck in this step!”

Fu Hongxue shook his head and tapped the floor. The mechanical bridge rose again and brought them to another level.

Through a thick layer of glass, a sea of blood presented itself before Fang Yuan.

In the center, what looked like a nest was wriggling gently. It spat out pieces of flesh one after another, which were then collected by a mechanical arm.

“This the Blood Sea! This flesh medium is the basis of my entire Blood Dragon series…” Fu Hongxue explained. “Its core is a ball of flesh made by refining the various genes of strong lifeforms that I’ve scoured the universe for. It possesses endless reproductive ability. After fusing with various metals, the metals will have biological characteristics. Unfortunately… its fission speed is still too slow, and it’s hard to accumulate enough materials for mass production…”

Fu Hongxue was somewhat regretful.

### Momon Armor Alloy

this is the main material of the Blood Dragon mechas. It is an alloy made from Momon flesh, which is a derivative of the flesh medium, and refined metal. It has low production cost, high ductility, metal memory, self-recovery, and a host of other advantages.

## **Grades**

Mechas are humanity’s vanguard against the cosmic behemoths! Starting from the most basic Gundam series, there are five grades—Soldier, General, King, Emperor, and God!

 **Thearch** | “Lastly, Thearch-grade mechas have another name, Dominator! With only one, you can dominate the entire battlefield!”
