The Mech Touch novel Chapter 4067

Chapter 4067 Phased Contributions

The MTA research team became so excited by what happened that they suspended the rest of the experiments planned for the day.

Ves and the others spent their time on analyzing the data of the previous experiments. The case where the latest test subject broke through provided a wealth of data that could help them understand the capabilities of the MSTS and possibly increase the chances of generating other breakthroughs.

The prototype Tutor Project had become a lot more interesting than before. Newly empowered after receiving a heap of spiritual feedback, the living mech had come a lot closer to becoming a third order living mech.

"It's a pity that it is just a prototype."

As valuable as the mech may be, it would always remain flawed and incomplete in his eyes. While third order living mechs were valuable, Ves felt it was against his principles to make serious use of a product that was only built for testing purposes.

Fortunately, the MTA was eager to take his prototype mech off his hands. Ves spoke for a while with a few of the MTA researchers aboard the Alacritous Stork about using the current prototype to induce other breakthroughs.

The discussion came to a halt as soon as Stimmons teleported back into the control room.

"Mr. Larkinson, I have news for you. Let us move to a private chamber so that I can convey our Master's new instructions."

They moved to a private office where they both sat down next to a desk. The MTA Journeyman was still brimming with excitement, which meant that the news he was about to share shouldn't be too bad.

"First, let me make it clear that Master Dervidian is highly pleased with your progress. While your decision to branch out into mech training simulation systems sounds rather random, the results you have achieved so far are impressive, especially since you have built your MSTS from scratch by yourself. We see great potential in your innovation and wish to see how far you can take it. We would like to obtain a batch of your new training mechs so that we can study its properties and see how viable it is to reproduce what has happened under many different circumstances."

Ves already expected that the Transhumanists would show this kind of reaction. It was hard for a faction that has always sought to further human evolution to remain unmoved in the face of an invention that could produce breakthroughs under more controlled circumstances!

"What do I need to do and what do you expect from me?" Ves asked as he wanted to know whether his latest accomplishments added any additional burdens to his plate.

"We do not wish to move too quickly with regards to your MSTS." Stimmons reassured him. "This is a new form of simulation program and we know far too little about it compared to conventional simulation programs. We are also aware that it is relatively early in development and that it may take many years for it to be complete enough to promote its use across human space. For now, we approve of your intention to hide its full potential and capabilities and cautiously extend its use for its initial purpose in providing mech cadets with a different and potentially more effective form of training."

That was good news to Ves. The MTA already understood his situation and did not force him to change his original plans.

The initial reason he came up with the MSTS was because he wanted to give his new line of training mechs additional value that could not be matched by the competition. He more than met this goal this time! Visit ꜰʀᴇᴇᴡᴇʙ)ɴ(oᴠᴇʟ. ᴄᴏᴍ, for the best no_vel_read_ing experience.

As such, Ves was not that eager to flesh out his MSTS as it would take a long time before he could achieve any drastic progress.

He wanted to proceed with his original goal of completing his Tutor Project and publish his promising new training mech model!

Once the completed Tutor Project went on sale, many different mech cadets would begin to make use of the MSTS.

All of these connections and all of the spiritual simulation sessions would provide Ves and Vulcan with a wealth of data. They could monitor the use of the MSTS, observe whether there were any problems that they did not notice beforehand.

For example, there may be extremely rare glitches that could only happen at a frequency of 1 per billion training sessions. It was practically impossible to catch these bugs before Ves chose to release his training mech model!

While Ves was still committed to testing his spiritual training program with the test subjects provided by the MTA, it took way too much time and effort to completely verify the safety and proper functioning of the MSTS.

If Ves wanted to complete this ambitious project in a timely manner and move on to newer and more interesting pursuits, he had to release his Tutor Project once he gained a reasonable amount of confidence.

He just hoped that the early adopters of his completed Tutor Project model did not mind serving as his beta testers!

Ves already understood that this was what the Transhumanists wanted to see as well. They could perform as many tests as they wanted with their own test subjects, but it was much easier to obtain a vast quantity of real usage data by distributing his training mech to the public.

"Are there any limits to how I can proceed with the utilization and subsequent development of my MSTS?" He asked. "My new training program is an independent invention. Once I release the Tutor Project and see that its users are doing fine, I plan to add the ability to engage the MSTS to my other training mech designs."

In fact, Ves also planned to add this valuable new feature to all of his Larkinson-exclusive mech designs going forward, but he did not see the need to mention that at this junction.

Stimmons transmitted a document to Ves. "We do have a list of rules and restrictions that we expect you to abide by. As we have seen in previous test cases, your Tutor Project and your MSTS can produce damaging and even fatal outcomes to mech pilots when improperly handled. The circumstances that happened today should not be repeated elsewhere unless we give our explicit authorization. Do you understand?"

"I do."

Much of the reason why the Tutor Project and the MSTS produced extreme positive and negative results during this session was because of the unbound neural interface.

If they attempted to perform the same tests with a safe and legal neural interface inside the cockpit of the Tutor Project, then nothing drastic would happen in all likelihood.

There was no way that Ves would be able to gain a foothold in the market for training mechs if his products frequently caused accidents!

Stimmons explained a few additional rules. None of them bothered Ves that much since they were mainly established to prevent him from screwing around with his mechs in order to produce additional breakthroughs under highly dangerous circumstances.

Now that they got all of the official stuff out of the way, Ves and the MTA research team resumed their experiments and continued to explore the limits and the dangers of the MSTS. ƒreewebɳovel.com
