The Mech Touch novel Chapter 3609

Chapter 3609 Possible Revival

"Hihihihi!..."

Aurelia giggled and gurgled as Ves lifted his baby and played with her for a time.

"Do you want a kiss from daddy, Aurelia?"

"Wuaaaa…."

"You do? Here I come, then!"

"Hihihihihihi!"

The emotional and spiritual bonds between them had grown to impressive levels. At this stage of her life, Aurelia became cognizant enough to interact with people in a more complex fashion than before.

Ves really felt that she was starting to remember what he said, though that might be his father's bias at work.

Whatever the case, he enjoyed spending time with his baby even more. Even though she still cried on a regular basis, she always injected a lot of joy in his heart.

He didn't even want to start his work day without making her laugh!

Her happiness directly boosted his happiness as well. Ves found that whenever he started his work day in a delighted mood, his productivity always soared.

The same applied to Gloriana. The New Man Project proceeded smoother than ever and her other two custom mech design projects were chugging along as well.

Both parents were in paradise.

Other Larkinsons were making progress in their personal lives as well. Over a thousand weddings were on the agenda. Dawn City on the Vivacious Wal became the favorite site to conduct weddings and all of the good locations were booked for several months.

A lot of hype and anticipation built up for Joshua and Ketis' marriage ceremony. The two prominent Larkinsons had turned into the second fairy tale couple after Ves and Gloriana.

Yet they weren't the only high-ranking clansmen who were planning to tie the knot.

Venerable Tusa surprisingly agreed to make his relationship with Director Ranya Wodin permanent. Though many people assumed that Tusa cherished his independence far too much to limit himself to a single lover.

The same applied to Vincent Ricklin. The masculine expert candidate had proposed to Director Raella Larkinson, who for some reason agreed to marry the flamboyant man!

Though Ves suspected that there was an element of practicality behind these marriage decisions, he didn't object to any of the pairings. He was not their nanny, so if their relationships crashed and burned, it had nothing to do with him. Failure was a part of life.

That said, Ves suspected that it was unlikely for these marriages to end in an undesirable fashion. He could easily see Goldie meddling when she wasn't supposed to. He would have to keep an eye on her to make sure she did not exert any excessive influence through the Larkinson Network.

Work proceeded as usual in the meantime. Out of all of the design projects that Ves was involved in, none of them were more challenging and complicated than the Minerva Project.

The expert mech designed for Commander Casella Ingvar incorporated a lot of new technologies that none of the Journeymen were familiar with. They never worked on a command platform, especially one that was so powerful and high-end.

Fortunately, Professor Benedict Cortez was always there to provide guidance whenever necessary.

The Senior Mech Designer never told the Larkinson Journeymen the answers to their problems directly. Instead, he adopted a teaching posture and always provided just enough guidance for the younger mech designers to figure out the solutions themselves.

It made Ves and the others involved in the project feel as if they became students again, not that they minded. They appreciated any learning opportunity.

Just like his other projects, the biggest question concerning the Minerva Project was its design spirit.

Though Ves initially wanted to employ Goldie as its design spirit, there were good reasons to look for alternatives.

Gloriana held their napping daughter as she explained her thoughts.

"So far, Commander Casella has demonstrated the remarkable capability of syncing and empowering our Larkinson mech pilots. If Goldie assumes responsibility for the Minerva Project, Casella will doubtlessly be able to strengthen our own mech pilots even further. However, it may also prove to be redundant. Her own talents along with Goldie's contribution might overlap with each other, leading to wasted potential. Have you ever thought about that, Ves?"

He furrowed his brows. "To be honest, I didn't think of that. I don't have enough knowledge or data to figure out whether you're right or wrong. This is all new to me. It doesn't help that it's hard for Casella to replicate her enhancement capabilities without the support of an expert mech."

It was a difficult situation.

In order for Ves to best figure out how to augment Casella's natural abilities as an expert pilot, he needed to put her into a compatible expert mech to collect enough data.

Yet that expert mech did not exist as of yet. The Minerva Project was supposed to be Casella's first tailored machine, but in order to make it right, Ves needed data on her performance which he lacked.

While the logs taken from the Quint and the other Larkinson mechs during her dramatic breakthrough to expert pilot provided him with crucial reference data, it was not enough. The arena battle was not set up as an experiment or observation session so plenty of details were missing. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

Most importantly, Ves hadn't attended the G-Aeana League match at all, so he did not witness how Casella personally connected to her fellow Larkinson mech pilots.

It was conundrums like these that mech designers generally didn't go all-out for an expert pilot's first new machine. The initial expert mech partially served as a test and observation platform to collect more data on the expert pilot's performance and resonance abilities.

As long as the expert pilot managed to grow stronger while surviving long enough, the mech designers could harvest all of the data and make use of what they learned to design a much more tailored expert mech.

This was the usual process when it came to handling new expert pilots, but Ves didn't like this approach. It was appropriate for large military organizations that employed lots of expert pilots but had to make do with a limited budget, but the situation of the Larkinson Clan was the opposite.

The Larkinson Clan could easily get its hands on additional money, but it was a lot harder to nurture a lot of expert pilots from its current population base!

This was why Ves wanted to provide Commander Casella with a strong expert mech straight away.

While Ves continued to think, Gloriana lovingly gazed down and kissed her sleeping baby. Aurelia already grew a lovely tuft of hair on her head that felt exceptionally soft and delicate.
