The Mech Touch novel Chapter 3926

Chapter 3926 Life Can Kill

After his initial panic, Ves settled down to an extent.

Accidentally inventing a brand-new weapon of mass destruction was not that big of a deal in modern society.

Any microbiologist could formulate a killer virus that could take hold in the bodies of many humans and spread death on a large scale.

A physicist with enough resources and no scruples could secretly create a homebrew anti-matter bomb and detonate it on a planet and kill off an entire population.

A captain of a capital ship could hijack total control of a kilometers-long vessel and crash it straight into a bustling metropolis, thereby inflicting untold ruination.

In short, there were so many different ways to rerun the darker days of the Age of Conquest that it was quite remarkable how many people showed restraint in modern times.

The Big Two played a major role in making sure that a lot of smart and powerful people continued to abide by the rules.

The MTA and CFA were so powerful that few if any people dared to violate their bottom lines!

If the transcendence glow indeed turned out to be an effective weapon of mass destruction as Master Dervidian speculated, then Ves as its inventor might not immediately be in trouble.

As long as its existence and usage remained restricted, the threat to human society would not be great.

Besides, a weapon that was deadly to humanity could also be deadly to many different alien species. The Survivalist Faction would probably love to obtain a trump card that it could pull out if the fate of mankind was at stake one day!

All of these reasons and more granted a bit of reassurance to Ves. At the very least, he became confident that he could still negotiate with the MTA.

Besides, despite its considerable threat, the transcendence glow could also be a great boon to the mech community.

If nothing else, its effects on mech pilots was likely very real!

Controlled use of the Aspect of Transcendence and its glow would allow any mech force to multiply its roster of expert pilots by at least ten times!

The chances of ace pilots emerging over time would also skyrocket!

Ultimately, this would also increase the amount of god pilots that were active in human space over time. This was a huge priority to the Mech Trade Association and one that was critical to the interests of the Transhumanist Faction!

As Ves studied Master Dervidian, he tried to figure out the powerful mecher's intentions.

Master Mech Designers were too powerful in a spiritual aspect for him to read. This was especially when they received training on how to hide their thoughts and intentions.

High-ranking mech designers were completely unlike high-ranking mech pilots in this regard.

The latter were honest to a fault due to their single-mindedness.

The former were much more complex due to the need for elaborate thinking.

However, all of the time he had spent in Master Dervidian's company was not in vain.

Ves gained a more thorough understanding of the prominent Transhumanist and did not believe the older man was rash enough to overreact.

Master Dervidian made his name within the Association as an innovator and a visionary.

This was a familiar mindset to Ves. The MTA Master could even be regarded as his older brother in a sense!

People who engaged in groundbreaking research tended to look down on problems that others found difficult or intractable. That was because inventor types like Ves and Dervidian never settled for the status quo and always tried to solve any issues with new solutions!

Ves relaxed when he figured out that his situation wasn't as precarious as he feared.

That said, the support of benefactors within the MTA became more important than ever!

If the Survivalists and the Transhumanists both decided that he and his inventions were more trouble than they were worth, they would probably agree to get rid of Ves in the name of safeguarding human civilization!

"It would be too exaggerated if the transcendence glow can be used to kill a lot of people." Ves stated after he quickly came up with a coping strategy. "I truly don't know whether it can be utilized this way as I have never used it in this fashion. I think that if it can be used this way against humans, it can also be utilized against aliens."

"That does not absolve the fact that it can do much more harm to our own society before we ever begin to deploy it against alien societies." Master Dervidian retorted.

In fact, there were more that were aware of the truth as well. Many of his design spirits such as the Golden Cat and the Superior Mother probably knew about this aspect of Lufa. _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}
