The Mech Touch novel Chapter 3720

Chapter 3720 - Taught By Juniors

The fabrication of the Minerva Project was projected to take seven days.

Although it was theoretically possible for them to finish the expert mech in five or six days due to working with better production machines, the mech designers participating in the project gave themselves more leeway so that they could pay more attention to quality.

Ordinary Journeymen never thought about fabricating a masterwork mech, but Ves and the others were clearly different.

Since four out of five of them already succeeded at least once, they all had realistic hopes of succeeding again!

Even if the chance of success was just 5 percent or 10 percent, as long as there was a window of opportunity, they would pursue it with all of their heart!

Professor Benedict was actually surprised by how much fervor the Larkinson Journeymen exhibited towards this goal. Ordinary mech designers did not think too much about this at all, but it absolutely dominated the minds of those who were far too young to be obsessed about this accomplishment.

"They're too ignorant, yet maybe that is their strength."

Those who knew better understood exactly how difficult it was to fabricate a masterwork. Seniors such as himself had probably made over a hundred mechs in their careers, but it was already fortunate if they succeeded once!

This was why he ordinarily did not set his sights on this goal at all. If he fabricated a mech at all, he merely wanted to deliver a good product to his clients.

To the Larkinson Journeymen, this was not their end goal, but their absolute minimum!

He discovered that all four of them possessed slightly different mindsets that were ultimately conducive to making masterworks.

Ves possessed a remarkably distorted mindset towards making masterwork mechs. He was fearless in the face of difficulties and eager to overcome challenges. His confidence in himself was absurdly high for a young Journeyman due to the many successes he had achieved.

What was even more remarkable about Ves was that the fire in his heart burned incredibly hot once he became engrossed with creating another powerful mech.

His passion in mech design exceeded that of everyone else's! Ves was so consumed by his work that even Professor Benedict thought he was falling behind at times.

This was an astounding accomplishment as the older man always thought that his passion and drive in mech design was the highest among his peers!

His passion and extreme dedication were so high that these personality traits had even pushed him into risking everything!

He had gone as far as breaking the MTA's taboos and committing unspeakable acts in order to exceed the limits of his design philosophy!

Though Benedict had tried his best to restrain his wild side as of late, right now he felt the urge to release the beast.

The Senior Mech Designer shared many traits with Ves. When he looked at the leader of the Larkinson Clan at work, he saw an echo of his younger self.

For a moment, Professor Benedict reflected on his own life. Though he was still incredibly passionate about his work, all of the trials and tribulations he had endured over the last few decades had worn down his optimism and caused his mentality to become a lot more jaded.

The stagnation of his design philosophy had also impacted his confidence to a degree. The fire in his heart had grown cooler over the years as the constant setbacks in his research slowly caused him to doubt whether he could advance to Master at all in his lifetime.

"How I wish I was young again."

The Larkinson Clan's design network allowed Benedict to reconnect with the fire of youth. The Larkinson mech designers were all young, confident and utterly unaware of the near-impossible challenges they would face in the future.

Once they became Seniors and learned what it took to break past the barrier that prevented them from realizing their design philosophies, it would be impossible for them to maintain the same optimistic mindset! Pa nda

No vel For now, he was willing to let these Journeymen indulge in their own fantasies. It did not do them anything wrong at this stage.

As Benedict continued to study the source of Ves' strength, he noticed that the passionate mech designer relied on another source to boost his confidence.

Vulcan!

Though others weren't able to sense this clearly, Ves maintained a constant connection to Vulcan. This allowed the design spirit to constantly provide hints and other forms of assistance to Ves.

After all, they were bound by life!

Ves' craftsmanship not only became more exquisite because of this connection, the unorthodox mech designer also showed points of brilliance every now and then. His open mindset and his willingness to think outside the box made it easier for him to develop strange ideas, of which a few of them could actually produce performance gains!

"This guy…" Professor Benedict twitched his eyes.

Through their earlier collaborations, he already had a decent understanding of Ves as a mech designer. It was only now that the Senior discovered that he had severely underestimated the fellow's creativity.

"He's crazier than me!" Professor Benedict admitted.

Despite this evaluation, the Senior genuinely admired the gutsy Journeyman. He gained a better understanding of how Ves was able to find success with his abnormal design philosophy. The Journeyman broke the conventional rules of mech design as easily as eating breakfast!

"He will either become a legend or face absolute ruination in the future!"

Though the odds that the latter would happen was much higher, Professor Benedict couldn't help but bet on the former possibility.

That was because the Senior recognized that rare spark of brilliance and irreverence in Ves. In the professor's extensive experience, this rare breed of mech designers had the highest chance of creating miracles!

"With his extreme mentality, I can fully see why he has succeeded in making so many masterwork mechs."

If Ves was already an oddball, then Gloriana was even crazier!
