Mecha Battle: Why Do You Use Body to Destroy Stars?

Li Xiao had already learned about the cause and effect of the incident and was paying great attention to this new member from the ancient civilization.

After the welcome, he communicated with Shida for a bit before quickly entrusting him with a corresponding task—

Knowledge inheritance.

Although the Rebirth Civilization is based on the ancient system of “reincarnation,” it had not completely abandoned the concept of “birth,” but had instead differentiated it.

Even forming two distinctly different social systems.

The members of civilization with ordinary talents, known as “Samsara Apostles,” had no qualifications to use the Rebirth Pool.

Like most members of civilization, they go through birth, aging, sickness, and death, raise offspring… Even if born into an ancient civilization, even if they live longer, they too have an end.

Members of civilization with exceptional talents, known as “Everlasting Mortals,” could choose to be reborn at the end of their lifespans or when there is no hope of advancement.

Thus possessing an almost eternal life.

During this process, some Everlasting Mortals, due to special reasons, wanted to give up immortality.

They could also choose to take special items during the process of reincarnation, to wash away memories, to dispel the dusk of life, and to greet the world anew as infants.

Therefore, the Rebirth Civilization’s education system for the new members of civilization, as well as the training system for mecha pilots, was also extremely well-developed.

At least far more outstanding than the current Planet Blue Star.

Li Xiao entrusted Shida with the task of developing several suitable education systems based on the current state of Planet Blue Star.

This task was related to the future of Planet Blue Star, and its importance was comparable to the creation of wonders.

Moreover, it was not a task that could be completed overnight.

It required an in-depth understanding of Planet Blue Star’s situation, and in cooperation with local educators, it had to be tested and improved bit by bit.

After accepting the task, Shida quickly immersed himself in his new work.

Once Shida had left,

Li Xiao rubbed his forehead.

“Once he has completed the educational reform and enhanced his own reputation,”

“becoming the next Candidate of Hope would be indisputable…”

Jiang Chen had been watching the entire time.

At this moment, hearing Li Xiao’s words, he suddenly understood—

The big shot was considering public opinion on his behalf.

Although Jiang Chen, as the Bearer of Hope, had the freedom to appoint the Candidate of Hope,

if the choice was made carelessly and could not win people over, it would inevitably lead to rumors.

Choosing someone close would be nepotism; choosing an outsider would mean preferring the words of an external monk…

What might have been insignificant could affect a lot if someone directed the conversation.

Jiang Chen, usually engrossed in his missions, hadn’t much awareness in this aspect, acting simply and directly on whatever came to mind.

Having served as the Symbol of the Alliance for many years, Li Xiao naturally took a more comprehensive approach.

“Lucky to have the big shot filling in the gaps for me.”

Li Xiao shook his head.

“Not really filling in gaps… You establishing contact with the Rebirth Civilization and bringing in supplies support and new members is beneficial to the entire civilization.”

“If anyone spreads rumors at such a time… it indicates ulterior motives and the issue just needs to be dealt with.”

“The main thing is that Planet Blue Star is currently building wonders, and public sentiment affects the construction speed.”

“I will make the process smoother.”

Jiang Chen nodded in agreement.

Having the big shot handle these complicated and mood-affecting trivialities was extremely comfortable.

He only needed to do what he wanted and occasionally check the results.

For example…

“How is the construction of the wonders going?”

This was the current key project on Planet Blue Star.

Jiang Chen’s fundraising and seeking external support were all for the purpose of accelerating the construction of the Civilization Wonder.

Li Xiao understood this, and his expression became serious.

He lifted a finger, and magic runes overflowed, intertwining into a virtual image in front of him.

Accompanied by this image, he began to speak.

“We found that as long as materials are placed inside the Light of Wonders, they will operate automatically, gradually starting the construction of the wonder.”

“However, the progress of automatic construction is extremely slow… it should be based on the basic three thousand years time frame.”

“Therefore, we gathered mecha pilots of different ranks and numbers.”

“We performed preliminary tests using a comparative experimental approach.”

“Based on the test results…”

“If ten billion 0th Rank mecha pilots each participate in six hours of the wonder’s construction every day,”

“the construction speed can be shortened to two thousand five hundred years.”

“…That’s too slow.”

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

The ancient civilizations were long-life species; the stretching of time might not seem significant for two thousand years.

But for Jiang Chen, two thousand five hundred years was far too long.

Even, let alone two thousand five hundred years.

Even twenty-five years was somewhat unacceptable to Jiang Chen—

If the authority level of Planet Blue Star’s civilization were raised, the wonder under construction would automatically fail and be damaged.

How could Planet Blue Star possibly not advance in twenty-five years?

“Yes, too slow.”

Li Xiao agreed with Jiang Chen’s opinion, then added.

“However, that was only the speed of the 0th Rank mecha pilots.”

“The higher the rank of the mecha pilot, the faster the construction speed.”

“The construction speed of a 1st Rank mecha pilot is ten times that of a 0th Rank, the construction speed of a 2nd Rank mecha pilot is ten times that of a 1st Rank…”

“And so on.”

“If a 9th Rank mecha pilot participated in the construction of the wonder, a single person would equal ten billion 0th Rank mecha pilots!”

“A 10th Rank mecha pilot, on the other hand, could match ten billion!”

“Oh?”

Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up.

The improvement in construction speed with rank promotion was so significant?

In that case, as long as the mecha pilots of Planet Blue Star accelerated their promotion in rank.
