The Mech Touch novel Chapter 5462

Chapter 5462 Swarm Mechs Concept

Ves already developed several solutions that enabled multiple mechs to exert far greater power as a whole than if they were by themselves.

The problem was that they were both exclusive to the Larkinson Clan.

There was no need for Ves to extol the power of his battle networks. They had turned around many battles. They fully deserved to be recognized as the trump cards of both the Larkinson Clan and the Glory Seekers.

This was why Ves found it unacceptable to spread them outside of his control. People could do as much damage as a weapon of mass destruction if they managed to reproduce a battle network.

After all, unleashing a death wave in the middle of a crowded city would most definitely cause the deaths of millions of people!

Few if any of the defenses that protected these innocent civilians from orbital bombardment could pose a hindrance to such a weird attack method!

Though Ves could no longer rule out the possibility that particularly clever mech designers and cultivation scientists might be able to imitate his battle networks, at least he would not be culpable for the crimes of others.

Battle networks were unsuitable for the swarm mechs that he had in mind. They required excellent trust and coordination between the participating mech pilots.

This was why Ves had only granted them to mech legions that embodied these traits the most. It was way too much to expect poorly trained third-raters to match the standards of a Swordmaiden of a Penitent Sister.

The second solution that Ves briefly thought about was the Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem. This was a more generalized method to increase the combat power of larger quantities of living mechs.

However, Ves had not even tested this new E-technology application in reality. The Larkinson Edition of the Fey Fianna had only just begun to be produced by the Spirit of Bentheim.

It would take months after the new drone mechs had been produced for their new mech pilots to master their operation and explore their more advanced capabilities.

"Even if the Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem has proven its value, I don't intend to surrender this trump card so easily."

A trump card could only be regarded as one if it was a rare and powerful advantage. The Larkinson Clan needed to retain as many of them as possible in order to keep their enemies on their toes.

The Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem was also far too deep and complicated for the target audience of his hypothetical swarm mechs. It took a lot of time, effort and appreciation of living mechs to gain control over the pseudo-domain generated by a large group of living mechs.

Ves was proud of the mech ecosystem that he devised recently because it was incredibly comprehensive. It could reproduce almost anything related to E energy manipulation.

There was no need to add all of these complicating possibilities to a bunch of low-end mechs.

It had been a long time since Ves had any close contact with low-quality third-class mech pilots.

He still remembered the scum struggling to do what they could while piloting the most awful junk mechs early on in his career. Though he hated the experience of trying to keep the ramshackle machines of Walter's Whalers together, it had been an unforgettable learning experience that still resonated to him to this day.

In any case, Ves still remembered that mech pilots of this caliber possessed much different priorities and concerns than their superior counterparts. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

Mechs should be as simple and solid as possible. They had to be cheap, cost-effective and easy to repair. Needless complexity always resulted in more breakdowns and inefficiencies.

Third-class mech pilots could only handle so much. Their training and their hardware simply couldn't handle anything too complex at one time.

Perhaps the more elite military mech pilots could handle greater challenges, but they were not the target audience that Ves had in mind.

"Maybe I should design a simplified version of the Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem." Ves considered.

That solved multiple problems at the same time.

Ves did not need to work from scratch to develop a design solution that was incredibly difficult and time-consuming for him to perfect. He could just copy his existing mech ecosystem and strip it down until he was only left with the bare essentials.

He could also automate certain processes and embed them into the simplified mech ecosystem in order to make it easier for mech pilots to employ them in battle.

Ves had deliberately designed the Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem to be an open-ended sandbox where any mech pilot could leverage E Energy in their own little ways.

The idea behind this was that there would always be geniuses among them who could devise a lot of inventive and fantastic methods. As long as they passed on their solutions, the Larkinson Army would soon amass a collection of best practices that enabled everyone to make versatile use of the Energy Weaver Mech Ecosystem!
