MTL - You Agreed To Fight Mechas, But Your Body Exploded Into Stars?-Chapter 143 Time starts to flow

Chapter 143 Time begins to flow

 Repairing two mechas at the same time greatly saves time.

 It took a total of seven hours to complete the repairs on the two mechas.

When the repair of the steam mecha was completed and the machine quickly shrunk, Yun turned back into a girl with twin tails wearing armor and shouted loudly.

 “The general will return to the battlefield!”

“My lord, who is the next enemy? The general is ready!”

Jiang Chen smiled when he saw Yun's energetic look.

 Not bad, very energetic.

 “If we want to fight, I have already found an enemy, so there is no need to worry for the time being.”

“Let Bai Ying teach us how to apply the power of time first.”

 “Then, get acquainted in combat.”

Attribute modules like time and space, even at high levels, are unlikely to become widespread.

It is impossible to be like low-level modules, you can choose from various styles and combinations.

 There are at most a few real time modules.

  Even if the effects can be continuously accumulated, it cannot cover all aspects.

 So, Jiang Chen can develop his own abilities by learning abilities and attribute cultivation techniques.

 Even if there is only one time stop module, you can try to extend it to effects such as time acceleration, time deceleration, and time reversal.

 “Are you learning from the master? I will finally understand!”

Yun nodded vigorously.

Zero looked on with envy.

 She doesn't have any time blocks, so she can't learn abilities with adults.

In this case…

 She raised her hand and said.

“Sir, let me take care of Xiaoyou for Sister Bai Ying!”

Hearing this, Jiang Chen subconsciously looked towards the villa in the jungle area.

 Through the gap in the curtains, I saw a girl huddled in the shadows, quietly looking here.

 She has gentle blue-water hair color, and the expression she looks at is full of expectation and desire, but also a little timid.

Like an introverted child, he doesn't dare to take the initiative to talk aloud, he only dares to huddle in the corner and look here from a distance.

 The moment Jiang Chen looked over, she had already started to hide in the darkness.

 Just because of Jiang Chen's high agility, it seemed extremely slow.

 In the end, he was almost completely hidden in the darkness, with only a small half of his blue head and eyes exposed.

Jiang Chen: “…”

This is the third mecha he put in the mecha cultivation area for machine soul training, the super armed mecha.

 The training process was very smooth.

 His requirements for restrained, introverted, soft on the outside and strong on the inside were fully realized.

 When Jiang Chen read the training records.

 After seeing that the No. 3 mecha was equipped with intelligent modules, it was far less arrogant than Zero, and not as passionate as Yun.

 In the virtual mecha survival brawl scene, he maintained a low-key and reserved state throughout the whole process, and behaved very cautiously. He never took the initiative to fight with others, only fought with certainty, and tried his best to kill with one hit.

In an arena-like frontal brawl scene, you can also explode your **** side, fight against multiple enemies in a row, and stand out from the pile of corpses.

 Like a predator in the night, calm and restrained.

Jiang Chen was very satisfied.

This kind of machine soul is very consistent with the two qualities of mystery and beast.

 You are usually delicate and weak, so you can stand in the back row to provide assistance.

 When necessary, directly activate the original return, explode the power of ancient creatures, and complete the harvest.

  Simply perfect!

 Therefore, Jiang Chen named the machine soul [You], gave her a mimicry module, and invited her to join the big family to wait for strengthening.

but…

Jiang Chen did not expect that Xiaoyou had no problems in fighting or growing up.

 On the contrary, there is a problem with the attitude towards mecha divisions——

Originally, she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, two sides of the same body. She usually seems introverted and reserved, but when it's time to fight, she can be cold-blooded and brutal.

 However, through the indoctrination of growth, the goodwill and trust in mecha masters have been enhanced, coupled with the natural bond of contract, and the ignorance of just being born...

　　Come on, no trace of cold-blooded ferocity is left, only softness remains, soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

 In an instant, he changed from a dark beast to an introverted autistic machine soul.

As soon as he saw Jiang Chen, he started to blush.

Having a little chat with Jiang Chen, she would almost faint from shyness.

He didn’t dare to come into contact with Jiang Chen at all, so he could only hide in the distance and watch secretly, feeling longing and timid at the same time.

but…

Jiang Chen thought about it and felt that this kind of character is actually not bad.

 After all, Xiaoyou is not really introverted and timid, just to herself.

 When facing other people, such as Ling, Yun, and Bai Ying, there is no shyness or timidity.

 This situation will naturally not affect the mecha path of evolution and sublimation.

As for those who are too shy, they may not be able to withstand the fusion of machine souls. Under the infusion of their own life energy, it is easy to stop eating on the spot...

  It doesn't seem to be a problem either.

 The worst case scenario is that it will just settle!

 Zero also came here like this.

 Hence, Jiang Chen did not interfere too much with Xiaoyou's growth to prevent back-and-forth changes that might be self-defeating.

Just let Bai Ying take Xiaoyou out of the mecha training room and return to herself, just like Yun before, continue to increase her knowledge by learning information.

 In this way, let Xiaoyou get used to it.

 Once you have been together for a long time, you will naturally no longer have emotions such as shyness.

 It’s just that the time is still short.

Xiaoyou was still hiding quietly behind the curtains, secretly observing the exchanges between Jiang Chen and Ling Yun.

 Obviously it will take some time to gradually adapt.

Jiang Chen thought for a while and rejected Ling's suggestion.

“No need, take Xiaoyou with you and practice your abilities with us.”

 Although Ling and Xiaoyou don't have the power of time, it is impossible to learn anything.

 Quan should cultivate goodwill and adapt to the machine spirit.

 Zero jumped up with joy.

"Great!"

 …

 Learning the power of time does not require any special venue.

Jiang Chen led the mechas to a large open space near the jungle villa, and asked Ling and Xiaoyou to have a picnic nearby as spectators.

 Then, together with Yun, he stood in front of Bai Ying.

“Sir, the time module I own is called [Stagnation Barrier].”

“It can consume a certain amount of energy to stop the flow of time in a circular area with a radius of up to one million kilometers within three seconds.”

“In this process, only a small number of objects that I allow are not affected by time stagnation.”

 “Other objects, even if they are not within the scope of the stasis barrier.”

“As long as you enter the barrier during the process of taking effect, it will also be affected and stagnated.”

“When the stagnation effect ends, the module will enter [absolute cooling] for thirty seconds.”

“The effect can be activated again after the cooldown is over.”

 In fact, even without Bai Ying's explanation, Jiang Chen already knew the effect of her module. Since you want to build a time mecha, how can you not check the relevant information?

 Which also includes the content of [Absolute Cooling]—

 This is a rule that the Alliance summarized based on the performance of the time mecha after the first time mecha appeared.

 After some modules use their abilities, they need to cool down for a period of time before they can be used again.

However, once the temporal ability comes into play, the way cooldown is calculated changes.

 The cooldown time of many modules will be affected by the time ability.

 It will pause the calculation, speed up the calculation, slow down the calculation, or even reset it directly for a certain period of time.

This kind of cooling is called [relative cooling].

 The cooling of another part of the module flows at a specific speed regardless of time.

This kind of cooling is called [absolute cooling].

 The cooling related to the time module is generally absolute cooling.

 In other words, no matter what you do, even if you have unlimited energy.

In every thirty-three seconds, Bai Ying was stagnant for at most three seconds.

 This is powerful enough!

 Three seconds of unconditional output time is enough for a high-level mecha master to beat the enemy into a pulp!

 At this time, Bai Ying finished explaining her abilities.

In order for Jiang Chen and Yun to intuitively feel the activation of their abilities.

 She opened her mouth to remind.

“Now, I will use the module ability to let you feel the operation of the power of time.”

 “Time stops flowing—”

As soon as he finished speaking, invisible force instantly flooded all areas within one kilometer. In order to avoid affecting the stellar activities, Bai Ying deliberately controlled the stagnant range.

 At this moment, the river flows, the dust scatters, and the heartbeat of living things.

 Everything stopped working.

 Bai Ying glanced around.

Ling in the distance was still stuffing food into his mouth, and Xiaoyou was hiding behind the trees, peeking here secretly.

Jiang Chen and Yun looked serious, trying hard to observe something.

 Until three seconds pass.

 “Time starts to flow again.”

Hear Bai Ying’s words.

Jiang Chen’s expression moved slightly.

“…Time just stopped?”

"It has ended."

　　　…”

Well, the power of time is indeed difficult to penetrate.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but shook his head.

 He didn't feel the change of time at all just now.

 It was as if Bai Ying finished her previous sentence and then directly said the next sentence without any pause in the middle.

Of course, Jiang Chen cannot be discouraged by this.

 He only possesses an insignificant ray of time power. If he wants to master the power of time at once, he thinks too much.

 He has long been prepared for long-term training.

 “Let’s continue Bai Ying.”

 “This time, during the three-second pause, wake me up.”

“Bai Ying understands, sir.”

Bai Ying nodded, waited until thirty seconds passed, and then spoke again.

 “Time stops flowing—”

 …

Even Jiang Chen’s human body, which has been tempered for a long time, has not yet reached the level of unlimited physical strength.

As an ordinary mecha, Bai Ying has limited energy and slow recovery.

 Coupled with the huge consumption of the time module, her ability to release [Stagnation Barrier] up to fifteen times in a row will completely consume all the energy—

 As a mecha bodyguard, she must reserve energy to release her abilities twice.

 So, the number of times she can really be released is only thirteen times.

Jiang Chen did not let her release it all at once.

 But every time he releases it, he pauses for a few minutes, allowing him to carefully savor the changes in time and feel the flow of time.

 He also used Bai Ying's ability to truly feel the time after the pause.

 During this process, his understanding of the power of time increased rapidly.

 Soon, the twelve stasis barrier releases ended.

Jiang Chen savored the changes of time again and finally spoke.

"continue."

 “After using the module this time, there is no need to wake me up.”

 “Yes, sir.”

Bai Ying nodded, paused, and spoke slowly.

 “Time stops flowing—”

 breath, heartbeat, breeze, dust, sound.

 Everything within the scope of the stagnation barrier fell into stasis again.

 This is a world of absolute silence.

Bai Ying sat in front of Jiang Chen and Yun, waiting quietly.

 One second passed...

 Two seconds passed...

 At the moment when the third second is coming——

Just when Bai Ying thought this training was about to end—

Jiang Chen’s eyeballs moved slightly.

 The sight deflected slightly.

 Ordinary people might have overlooked this insignificant change.

But Bai Ying is a seventh-level mecha. Even without the time stagnation module, her speed is countless times that of ordinary people, and she is keenly aware of this.

 Stagnation ends and time begins to flow.

Bai Ying said with a smile.

 “Congratulations, sir.”

 “Haha, it’s not even close.”

Jiang Chen actually just had a vague feeling, and it was only after hearing Bai Ying's words that it was confirmed.

　　Laughed and stood up.

“That’s almost it. Bai Ying, you need to take a rest first.”

 “Yun, let’s go, let’s challenge the endless abyss together!”

 The initial learning is over.

 The next step is formal accumulation!

 What method of learning is more convenient than directly accumulating the power of time?

Yun stood up happily, and his figure expanded rapidly.

 “The general will obey orders in the end!”
