The Mech Touch novel Chapter 5181

Ves had the illusion that he was lecturing another class of university students.

The few times he taught at the Eden Institute of Business & Technology turned out to be extremely helpful.

He gained a valuable amount of experience on how to speak to a crowd of really smart first-raters.

Compared to holding a lecture in front of a crowd of attentive mechers, Ves found it a little more challenging to capture the attention of all of these distinguished people.

His current audience represented a small portion of the very best Survivalists. Their visions were much broader and higher. Their comprehension was greater and they demanded more proof to back up all of his assertions.

Ves was able to oblige them a bit better based on the fact that everyone in this hall had a red or purple dot on their badges.

It actually felt liberating for him to talk about spirituality and cultivation on a more open basis. They were all a part of the 'in group' so to speak.

The listeners did not even mind if he employed his own terminology and theoretical frameworks to describe his perspective on companion spirits.

In any case, he managed to produce results that were valuable enough to be invited to hold a closed session, so Ves was definitely doing something right!

Ves spent a considerable amount of speaking time on explaining the basic properties of companion spirits. He wanted to get all of the truly necessary explanations out of the way before he could get to all of the fun stuff.

"...Now that you have received a basic idea of what companion spirits are, let me show you what they can do to make your lives better."

"Mrow."

Blinky dove down and passed through the deck without incident. He then emerged again and passed through numerous other obstacles in the hall to show that he was not hindered in the slightest!

"As you can see, companion spirits can be useful for spying purposes as they can be used to peek at what is happening in another room or whatever. Everything they see, you can see as well, as they are essentially another part of yourself. There are range limitations to most spirits, but there are cases when they can be overcome. You can make them invisible to most forms of detection as well."

Blinky turned invisible, though not perfectly. The cat could not be detected with visual sensors, heat sensors, gravitic sensors and the like, but that did not mean his spiritual presence had disappeared.

Although Blinky tried his best to dampen his own presence, he did not excel in stealth, so those with unusual means of detection were able to sense his location easily enough.

Even so, the potential applications of a companion spirit in the intelligence community were still great!

Ves could already see the attendees with pink dots looking a lot more attentive than before. So long as companion spirits could solve the flaw of getting easily detected through metaphysical means, they could be utilized to strengthen their spying efforts even further!

"This is only the most basic usage of companion spirits." Ves spoke as Blinky's manifestation became visible again. "A more profound usage is to treat them as incarnations that can engage in separate forms of cultivation. For example, I am a mech designer, so it stands to reason that I cannot engage in other forms of cultivation, correct?"

The people who only possessed red dots on their badges might not be experts in cultivation, but they at least received a crash course on it, so they could still follow the explanation more or less.

"Well, that rule no longer applies anymore from the moment you have a companion spirit. I don't profess to understand everything that is going on, but I can show you real examples of cases where engaging in multiple forms of cultivation at the same time can individually strengthen our own capabilities."

A small number of people looked as if they already understood what Ves was about to present, but much of this was completely new to the rest of the crowd.

"Mroooow..."

Blinky cautiously began to cultivate the Imaginary Universe Method. Even though this act interrupted the cat's ongoing recovery, he only had to maintain this state long enough to make a statement to the audience!

"I am a mech designer, but I have also become a qi cultivator." Ves boldly stated. "My companion spirit is not bound to my limitations as a mech designer. By engaging in a cultivation method that is suited to a pure energy-based life form like himself, Blinky is able to absorb a lot of E energy radiation and use that to fuel all kinds of applications."

The Star Cat demonstrated one such application by converting a moderate amount of his enormous reserves to life-attributed spiritual energy.

The newly produced energies began to spread across the entire compartment and even spilled into the surrounding spaces as well!

The audience showed a much greater reaction at this time. What was happening was supposed to be impossible for ordinary mech designers. Even if they somehow gained control over their own internal energy, they couldn't afford to spill it out so unscrupulously!

The fact that Ves or rather Blinky was able to do so without suffering any serious consequences made this session a lot more important than before!

More than a few experts among the attendees were hidden cultivators or possessed an extensive understanding of cultivation. They fully understood the advantage of having a companion spirit that can supply a specific variation of E energy in larger quantities!

Ves actually held back the fact that Blinky was actually able to disgorge large amounts of unconverted energies of different attributes as well.

While he was not sure whether it was possible to keep the Red Association in the dark about Blinky's internal universe, there was no need to volunteer sensitive information for free.

"Would you like to demonstrate your own companion spirit, Jovy?"

"Sure."

The other Senior Mech Designer stepped forward and showed off his Eye of Providence.

"Zsssss."
