Copper Soul Master: From the Start, I Was Sacrificed, So I Built a Mecha Instead

Bronze-Soul Master: From the Start, I Was Sacrificed, So I Built a Mecha Instead Jiang Chen transmigrates and becomes the seventy-third-generation bronze-soul master of Erlang Temple. The townsfolk kneel before him, the temple priest treats him with reverence, and everyone calls him the chosen one. Until he hears the anguished cries of the previous seventy-two generations coming from a bronze ritual cup: “Run... Bronze-soul masters are sacrifices... The Bronze Ancestor will eat us all!” It turns out every bronze-soul master is fated to be turned into living bronze within three years, nourishing that ancient evil deity. The ninth coffin has already been prepared for him. They’re just waiting for the auspicious moment to bury him. Jiang Chen touches the bronze mask he brought from Sanxingdui, tucked inside his robe, and smiles. You want to play with bronze? I’m a top twenty-first-century artifact restorer. X-ray flaw detection, spectral analysis, electrolytic reduction: I can handle every kind of bronze-restoration challenge! When the Bronze Ancestor’s apostles lead thousands of bronze corpses to besiege the city, when all the townsfolk are about to be turned into bronze statues, when the temple priest holds out poisoned wine and says, “Master, give your life for all living beings,” Jiang Chen calmly fires up the furnace. “Bronze-casting the old-fashioned way? Too crude.” “Today, I’ll show you what bronze punk really means.” That day, all the people of Erlang Town knelt in awe. They watched a thirty-meter-tall bronze mecha, engraved with ancient Shu cloud-and-thunder patterns and venting blue flames from its joints, slowly raise its three-pointed, double-edged blade. The blade pointed at the bronze evil god who called itself immortal. “I hear you want to eat me?” Jiang Chen’s calm voice came from inside the mecha. “Lucky for me, my lab could use an ancient specimen.” ◆Transmigration + Supernatural Horror + Suspense + Apocalypse + Mecha, action from start to finish!
