The Mech Touch novel Chapter 4823

"What did you do?!" Ketis uttered in shock!

She could sense that the Heavensword had managed to capture a living phase whale in his entirety!

Inside a massive internal space that Ketis could not access or look into, she could vaguely tell that it had become the latest home of the ancient whale!

This… was the greatest purpose of the Heavensword. There were not many opportunities for a relic weapon to come across a weakened and immobilized phase whale, especially not without the Big Two swooping in to claim the creature for themselves.

Now, the sword that originated from the old galaxy had managed to capture what passed as a god in the native alien community.

As long as the Heavensword studied the phase whale and assimilated its power in whatever fashion, its application and abilities related to space would surely skyrocket!

"It turns out that the Heavensword is a self-evolving weapon!"

Maybe all weapons at the level of a grand work possessed the capacity to improve their functions and evolve over time.

She still thought that the Heavensword was quite exceptional in this regard. It had existed for so long and experienced so much time without a strong wielder that it had naturally grown to be a lot more independent, willful and self-sufficient.

Taking the initiative to capture a living phase whale did not sound so ridiculous anymore.

She did not even raise her eyebrow when she realized that a sword that was physically smaller than her own Greatsword could swallow up a starship-sized organism without breaking apart.

Having gone on multiple expeditions and witnessing a lot of crazy and incredulous sights, what just happened was not as funky.

Ketis could feel that her time with the Heavensword had come to an end. The weapon exerted a lot of strain in its attempt to capture the phase whale. This also induced a heavier strain on Ketis as well.

The ball of heavenly energy that helped to bridge the gap between herself and the powerful sword had dwindled by over 90 percent!

"Take me back, please." She requested.

Ketis did not want to get left behind in this gigantic cell!

It took less than a single eyeblink for Ketis to return on the battle-scarred floor.

Scorch marks, damaged walls, shattered debris and a lot of body parts that had been hacked to pieces littered the entire space!

Ketis sighed in relief now that she saw that she had rejoined her fellow humans. The people who spotted her abrupt return even lifted up their arms and cheered!

She briefly waved at them but directed most of her concentration to the Heavensword.

One of the many lessons she had learned from Ves was that nothing came for free!

She may have been fooled at first and maintained the assumption that the Heavensword was truly trying to look after her, but she was anything but naive.

The effort it invested into capturing the phase whale showed that the Heavensword possessed clear desires and the ability to act on them. It was an intelligent blade that had evolved over many years.

Indeed, her suspicions turned out to be accurate as the Heavensword conveyed one more thought.

She frowned for a moment and mulled over its request. The relic weapon did not issue an overbearing request, which meant that she was not obliged to act.

It was not in her nature to leave her debts unpaid. Everything had a price, and refusing to pay it incurred another price. There was no way she would make the foolish decision to offend a grand work that had just swallowed up a phase whale!

"You've shown me a lot, but I need lots of time to digest what I have learned." She whispered to the Heavensword that still exuded a lot of power. "To be honest, I am interested in designing a swordsman mech that embodies the concept of heaven and its many facets as well. The former citizens of the Heavensword Association in my clan will love what I have in store. I am not sure my skills are up for it yet, however. I estimate that it may take a few years before I can design a mech that can do heaven justice."

The Heavensword possessed a lot of confidence in her. Just as Ketis had been studying the weapon that she temporarily wielded, the powerful blade also took a good look at her! It was impossible for her to hide anything from a grand work of unsurpassed might.

Fortunately, Ketis was not Ves. She did not hold a lot of unspeakable secrets that she really did not want to spread. She was a swordmaster and she had nothing to be ashamed about.

Before the Heavensword left, Sharpie sprung out of the blade with a satisfied and blissful expression.

The miniaturized translucent copy seemed to have enjoyed her stay in the ancient weapon. Her outfit changed into a slender and more feminine copy of the pale white robes of the Heavensword Saint. Her exposure to so much heavenly energy also caused her to acquire a purer and more sacred demeanor.

"Heaven! Heaven! Heaven!" She shouted in her squeaky voice.

Ketis did not look amused. She stared at her companion spirit in admonition before jerking her head in dismissal.

"Heaven… Heaven… Heaven…" Sharpie spoke before entering Ketis' mind.

The Heavensword chose this moment to disappear. Its abrupt departure left a void behind that already caused Ketis to miss its overpowering presence.

An immediate sense of emptiness and exhaustion overtook her body. If not for the reinforcement of her recently repaired combat armor, she would have slumped over already.

Ketis hadn't noticed how much of a toll it took to hold the Heavensword!

Her willpower had run ragged at this time. She overstrained herself so much that she found herself unable to muster any desire to wield a sword for the rest of the day.
