The Mech Touch novel Chapter 5483

Chapter 5483 Hunting Considerations

After a long and highly informative tour across the Chasseur Continent, the day had finally come to an end.

The shuttle flew back to the Melrose Continent and landed right in the middle of Tixe City.

As the children stepped out of the shuttle and looked forward to eating dinner, their father continued to think about what he wanted and what would be nice for him to obtain.

"Are you impressed by our wide variety of mutated beasts?" President Tarich asked.

"I am." Ves honestly replied. "The combat power of the indigenous beasts of this planet has grown to a terrifying degree within the span of just a single year. We are all lucky that these powerful monsters are highly individualistic and unable to communicate with each other. They can probably conquer entire star systems if they put down their hostility towards each other and join forces."

President Tarich smiled in response. "Exobeasts lack the capacity to bridge across their differences with each other. They are all savage creatures who only identify with their own species, and even that has become diminished as they change in so many different ways. If this is not the case, then calamity beasts will probably rise to become the third dominant civilization group in the Red Ocean."

"It is good that this will never happen.

The line between savagery and civilization was clear-cut. Any organisms that were unable to create enough order to form a structured society could never pose a serious threat against more organized races.

The power of an individual was ultimately too limited to compete against the technological accumulations of an old civilization.

"Have you formed any thoughts about commissioning any hunts for the powerful beasts that you have witnessed during your tour?"

"I have formed a lot of thoughts, but I have not yet made up my mind." Ves replied. "I need more time to think over my plans. Your planet offers a lot of tantalizing possibilities, but they are not that easy to obtain. I do not want to send any of my subordinates to their deaths for a dispensable goal."

"You do not have to rely on your own people to complete the hunts, professor. You can hire other hunting teams to take action on your behalf. They will be glad to provide their services to you as long as you can satisfy their demands. Promising large sums of money can move the hearts of many hunters, though they will also insist that they be given a chance to eat a portion of the meat of their prey."

"I see. I understand. Thank you for your advice."

Ves was ambivalent about commissioning third-party hunting teams to complete hunts on his behalf.

Bypassing his own eager Swordmaidens could be construed as a lack of confidence in their fighting abilities.

Considering how prideful they could be, this could turn into a serious incident!

Ves continued to think about his options while he and his children ate dinner and continued to visit a few locales in the late evening.

Once he put his cute kids to bed, he knew that he had to make up his mind.

He could not pass off this decision to the morning because the hunters needed to reserve enough time to conduct preparations for their upcoming missions.

After a bit of thought, he decided to summon the most senior leader in Tixe City.

It took around fifteen minutes for Captain Gheri of the Swordmaidens to arrive at the hotel by shuttle.

She entered the luxurious hotel suite with an ordinary training suit, having left her customary greatsword outside.

Despite the late hour, the veteran mech officer looked ready to take action at any time. She gave Ves a salute.

"You called, sir?"

"I did. Sit down, please. I have a few ideas in mind. I would like you to give your input on them. Your understanding of Ocanon VI and its many dangers are better than mine."

He activated a projection and proceeded to show the powerful mutated beasts that had made an impression on him. Captain Gheri was already familiar with them. She always kept an eye on any news about powerful mutated beasts.

"Any questions, captain?"

"Our troops are always eager to go onto a hunt, but these beasts that you have singled out are difficult to beat even for us." Captain Gheri seriously spoke. "As a Swordmaiden, I would never chicken out of a fight, but as an officer and a leader, I need to be responsible for my women. What do you want us to fight for? What conditions will you set for our hunts? Do we need to keep the bodies as intact as possible, or are we allowed to chop them up however we like?"

Ves did not immediately respond. He instead stared back at the projections of the three beasts that he had set his eye upon.
