The Mech Touch novel Chapter 4477

Ves gained so much during his initial attempt to design a biomech that he gained a lot of enthusiasm for what else he could do in the System Space.

The fact that he had made such an enormous leap in capabilities and expanded his range of mech designs by an entire category had caused him to develop a much greater appreciation of the Mech Designer System.

"Maybe I have been too reticent about making use of the System all this time."

A part of him regretted that he ignored the System for so long. If he studied the Missions more closely and figured out that he could complete them with the help of a cleverly chosen enlightenment fruit, he would have been able to expand his repertoire without spending as much Ascension Points.

After all, he not only spent 30 Ascension Points to buy enough time to study the essentials of biomech design, but he also spent 40 Ascension Points to cover the time needed to design the Blood Knight Project!

"Well, it's not a waste to spend 70 Ascension Points to extend my stay in the System Space. Time is the most valuable resource of all. There are lots of mech designers who would literally kill entire states if they could obtain more time for themselves!"

This was one of the many wonders of the Mech Designer System. Humanity managed to master many forms of high technology, but Ves seriously doubted whether anyone aside from maybe a god pilot could manipulate the power of time!

For Ves to be able to buy extra time for the price of a single Ascension Point a day was extremely convenient, so much so that it could literally change his life!

"This is a potent power and one that I should treat with great respect." He reminded himself.

His ability to earn Ascension Points was still relatively limited, so he could not squander them on buying time alone.

There had to be a greater purpose behind this action in order to justify the expenditure.

"It's much more useful for me to spend my Ascension Points on enlightenment fruits." He affirmed. "Increasing my capabilities and acquiring exotic knowledge that is far out of my reach can immediately boost my career and improve my work."

He had been impressed by how much knowledge he had gained from absorbing the Blood Cult Scarlet Oak Tree Growth Manual enlightenment fruit.

This event had taught him that he shouldn't underestimate the value of any enlightenment fruit, even the cheapest and most unassuming ones!

"It's all about relevance and fit. A single textbook's worth of knowledge on spirituality is much more useful than a library's worth of information on financial management."

One of the more curious effects of absorbing the latest fruit was that Ves not only gained a lot of scientific and mystical knowledge on blood and trees, but also gained awareness of the rituals and ideology of the Blood Cult.

Though Ves could not call himself a card-carrying member of this secretive organization, he knew enough about the blood cultists that he could blend inside their midst for a time!

Ves even developed the urge to seek them out and hold a civilized exchange with them. The knowledge contained in a single enlightenment fruit was only the tip of the iceberg. The Blood Cult's understanding and mastery of the tangible and intangible properties of blood encompassed so much more!

Although the cultists preferred to use the word 'qi' and other strange terms to refer to spiritual energy and such, that did not stop Ves from appreciating all of the theories they developed.

"If I can obtain more core secrets from the Blood Cult, I can improve the effectiveness of the Blood Pact. That will make it much easier to convert average mech pilots into powerful heroes!"

Ves did not think about how odd it was to use the methods of vile cultists to enhance the functionality of mechs.

"It's a pity that there aren't any further enlightenment fruits related to the Blood Cult available at the moment."

He silently decided to pay attention to any further fruits related to this cult in the future.

There were still many other fruits available that were tied to different cults. Each of them possessed names that Ves had never heard of. He suspected that a large proportion of them had become extinct.

"Hm, let's see if these other fruits can help me out as well."

Now that he managed to restore his condition, he became eager to continue his quest to earn more Ascension Points.

He moved to the Mission Hall and studied the 11 Missions that remained.

"None of them are easy. What is worse is that I can only complete a few of them without returning to reality."

He did not let the difficulty deter him. His previous success had given him a lot of confidence.

Now that he figured out the right strategy, he was eager to repeat his success formula and accumulate more knowledge and Ascension Points.

"Let's see what I can choose."

Description

As a human attempting to undergo Spiritual Ascension, you must obtain an object that symbolizes the essence of your power and rules.

Create or acquire a material object that reflects your traits and symbolizes your authority. Let this anchor be the strongest physical trace that can expand your reach, accelerate your ascension to divinity and allow you to escape the fetters of mortality.

The greater the power of the divine artifact, the greater its ability to facilitate your Spiritual Ascension. However, a stronger artifact also requires a greater sacrifice in order to take effect. Do not overdraw your essence and ruin your future potential.
