After posting the strategy, Jiang Chen quickly arrived at Shuiwu City via the Xuntian City’s teleportation array formation as a transfer point, where he met his parents.

After an emotional reunion and a catch-up, his parents revealed their mecha pilot talents and hoped Jiang Chen would give them some advice.

Father Jiang’s talent was: Rapid Construction.

It provided an extra speed bonus when creating external equipment and tools for mechas.

It was suitable for mass-producing consumables like [grenades], [bombs], [magic scrolls], and the like.

However, it offered no enhancement to the strength of the mechas.

Mother Jiang’s talent was: Silent Water.

It could enhance the power of water attribute modules loaded on the mecha and increase the probability of generating water attribute evolution and upgrade modules.

It was an independent system-type talent for enhancing mechas, but sadly the benefits were too low, at most a thirty percent increase in power and not much higher chances for module upgrades.

Not even close to the traits of a Weapons Master—those had much higher attribute bonuses.

After listening to his parents, Jiang Chen said,

“Dad, Mom, your mecha pilot talents are too ordinary,”

“Even with my help, at most you could reach the level of the former Symbol of the Alliance, which is just mediocre in terms of prospects,”

“My suggestion is to learn a bit about life occupations like forging and repair, and develop some hobbies… that way, you wouldn’t need to think about diving into the abyss anymore.”

“…Symbol of the Alliance?”

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang were stunned.

They were not like Jiang Chen who had just traveled through time; they had no clue about the world.

From twenty years ago to now, they’ve witnessed the birth of the Abyss Rune, the chaos of monsters, and the rise of the alliance; they understood the power of the Symbol of the Alliance better than anyone.

In their hearts, the Symbol of the Alliance was a symbol of peace—the undisputed strongest on Planet Blue Star.

But now…

How come in Jiang Chen’s words, the Symbol of the Alliance seemed as common as cabbage, easily reachable at his level?

They only possessed the most common blank slate talents!

“I was referring to the former Symbol of the Alliance, not the current one,”

Jiang Chen explained.

“Times have changed. After I crossed the abyss, the production restrictions on Supercharge Modules were lifted, and their numbers will only increase,”

“I can get you high-quality Nascent Form Mechas and equip them with all the Supercharge Modules…”

“Even if you don’t have mecha pilot talents, it’s the equivalent of a tenfold attribute boost!”

“I was merely using the speculated ‘Mecha Supercharge’ talent for comparison,”

“…Supercharge Module!!”

“…Nascent Form Mecha!!”

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang continued to be bewildered.

How could these precious things be mentioned so casually by their son, like putting together a set of cabbages?!

You should know that back in the day, a single Supercharge Module was stolen from the Symbol of the Alliance, and they killed five 8th Rank powerhouses over it!

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang exchanged looks.

They felt like the world had changed too fast, and they were left behind by the times.

A quick exchange of glances communicated their internal team decisions and they made up their minds.

Father Jiang turned back to Jiang Chen and spoke,

“Never mind, Xiao Chen, there’s no need to get us these fancy things,”

“Hmm?”

Jiang Chen looked at his father in surprise, who wore a serious expression.

“I’m no mecha pilot, and what I know about the abyss is only from browsing some popular science online…”

“I don’t quite understand the level you’ve reached now,”

“But I’ve lived long enough to understand one thing well,”

“Different people are meant for different things,”

Father Jiang sighed.

“Remember your cousin from your uncle’s family? The kid made good, earned quite a sum outside,”

“Everyone envied your uncle, thinking he did a great job raising his son, who turned out so well,”

“But then, your uncle wouldn’t accept getting old, thinking if his son could do it, so could he, and used your cousin’s earnings to start a business,”

“Time after time, he failed disastrously, squandering most of what your cousin had made,”

“The father lives off his son’s earnings and blows them away—became a joke among our relatives!”

Father Jiang paused, then continued,

“So, let’s forget about it,”

“If we don’t have the talent, it means we don’t have the destiny for it. Forcing it would only hold you back,”

“Supercharge Modules, superb Nascent Form Mechas—no matter how easy they are to get now, do they become worthless?”

“It would be a pure waste to give them to us,”

“You should use these things to improve yourself, to strive to grow and reach higher levels!”

“Don’t worry about us,”

“Now that you are successful, the mere leftovers are enough for us to live out our years comfortably,”

“We will be waiting at home to witness the day you reach the very top!”

“Yes, Xiao Chen,”

Mother Jiang held Jiang Chen’s hand, echoing,

“I’ve been using a kitchen spatula for half my life, really don’t know how to wear those big contraptions and fight monsters…”

“You’d better keep the good stuff for yourself, to strengthen your own mecha,”

“And be sure to stay safe; don’t get hurt,”

“Dad, Mom…”

Jiang Chen was at a loss for words for a moment.

His parents, with traces of white at their temples, overlapped completely with the loving and gentle parents in his memory.

He struggled to control his emotions, settled his inner turmoil, and smiled.

“Alright, then you two just enjoy your retirement and wait for me to take off; that’s that,”

“By the way, I’ll speak to the bigshots soon and share my contribution quota with you. If you want to buy anything, just use my contributions,”

Before Father Jiang and Mother Jiang could refuse,

Jiang Chen simply said,

“My contribution limit is unlimited,”

“Whatever you want, the alliance will pick up the tab for me,”

“So you two use it as you please; you can’t drain my resources.”
