The Mech Touch novel Chapter 2992

Chapter 2992: Resonance Compatibility

When Ves presented his mounted wargear plan to Joshua and Ketis, they acquiesced quickly enough.

Who said that expert pilots couldn't be persuaded?

They might be stubborn about their own likes and the causes they fought for, but they could still be swayed in other matters!

After getting Venerable Joshua's buy-in, Ves already began to develop some ambitious plans for the mounted wargear loadouts that he had sketched out. The artillery, lancer and so-called meat suit loadouts were all big but not that terribly complex. This meant that he could delegate much of the crunch work to his ȧssistants.

As Ves finalized the details of his proposal, he rose from his chair and left his workplace to visit his wife.

"Meow."

Mrow.

Blinky dematerialized and returned to Ves' mind while Lucky jumped off the desk and followed like a lost puppy.

When Ves reached his destination, he saw that Gloriana was explaining her thoughts to a design team. He patiently waited for her to finish her instructions.

"Miaow~"

"Meow~"

Meanwhile, Lucky landed on a large pillow where Clixie comfortably rested. The two cats bumped their noses and sniffed each other.

Mrow!

Blinky materialized above them and fell on top of Lucky's back. The gem cat did not appreciate the passenger on his back and rolled around in order to swat the spiritual cat away!

"Meow!"

The two tomcats wrestled against each other again while Clixie watched on with an amused expression. Her tail elegantly swished from side to side as she watched the boys defend their pride.

"What are you doing here?" Gloriana eventually turned to Ves after dismissing the little ȧssistants. "Aren't you supposed to be fleshing out our draft design for the Chimera Project?"

Ves grinned and approached his wife in order to embrace her and plant a kiss on her lips, but she firmly raised her palm before he got too close.

"This is not the time! We are on duty at the moment. Can't you control your beastly urges for once and remain professional for once?"

"Hey! You never complained in the past!"

His wife frowned and crossed her arms. "That's because we weren't under so much time pressure. This is different. We are working on the most important projects of our lives. I don't want them to be ruined because we slipped up. Be serious!"

"Uhm, okay." Ves lamely replied. He would just have to try again when they were off-duty and back in their grand stateroom. "Anyway, I did have some business to talk about. I just came up with a fantastic new idea that would definitely elevate the Chimera Project!"

He enthusiastically explained his proposal. He even projected his sketches in order to convey his thoughts in the clearest fashion possible.

"...With all of this mounted wargear, we can use the Chimera Project as a powerful rallying symbol and a vessel to intimidate the mech pilots arrayed against us. The impact on morale when fighting against an extremely powerful giant is not something you can imagine."

"...The best part of this all is that it plays to our strengths and mitigates our weaknesses. Since we are nowhere near the size of conventional states, we don't have a large base of mech pilots to establish a continuous supply of expert pilots. People like Venerable Joshua are very scarce to us, so it makes sense to invest in them and empower them as much as possible."

"...Since it is much easier for us to acquire funding, we can invest them all in large amounts of regular exotics and low-grade resonating exotics that are readily available on the market. It doesn't matter if their properties are relatively shabby. As long as we cobble them together into a loadout that is massive enough, sheer quantity will ensure that the final product is still powerful!"

"...In short, this plan is perfect! This will truly make the Chimera Project shine!"

As Ves finished his brief presentation, he waited to hear the praises of his wife.

..She did not look amused. Her frown grew deeper as she formulated a lot of thoughts.

"Uhm, Gloriana?" _{freēwēbnovel.com}

"Ves." She finally ground out. "Have you gone crazy?"

"What?"

"Did you go mad?"

"No."

"THEN WHY DID YOU DEVIATE FROM MY INSTRUCTIONS AND EXPAND THE SCOPE OF THE CHIMERA PROJECT?!"

"It's not as bad as it sounds! This is a great way to—

"YOU IDIOT! THE DESIGN DEPARTMENT IS HORRIBLY SHORT OF MANPOWER! IF WE PURSUE YOUR INANE IDEAS, THE CHIMERA PROJECT WILL BE DELAYED BY AT LEAST A YEAR!"
