The Mech Touch Chapter 4116 Much At Stake

Chapter 4116 Much At Stake

In truth, everyone involved in the fabrication run had already completed the necessary preparations a day ago. They checked all of the production equipnt and verified that the materials were all up to standard.

Once the ch designers made sure that nothing had changed, they finally chose to turn the Mars from a dream that had been in the making for eighteen months into a reality that could spark the rise of the Cross Clan!

As Patriarch Reginald stood before the five individuals that had combined their expertise to develop one of the most unique and special expert chs in Davute, he looked both proud and expectant.

His willpower already imposed itself on the ch designers who would decide his future. Reginald was intensely focused on what was about to take place. It would be surprising if he was not excited at this ti.

The man visibly increased the pressure on Professor Benedict. As the lead designer of the Mars Project, the man with a less-than-clean past saw this expert ch as the key to put a firm end to his past as a lost and struggling Senior ch Designer.

As long as his Magma Vein System and his other design implentations turned the end product into an expert ch beyond comparison in Davute, he would gain the validation and the recognition he needed to realize his design philosophy and take the step that had eluded him for several decades!

"We are ready, Reginald." The older ch designer spoke.

"I know you are." The Cross Patriarch smiled in a failed attempt to lighten up the mood. "You have told often enough how much you have invested in my expert ch. I hope my trust in you is not misplaced."

"You will find that entrusting with the responsibility to lead the developnt of your most important ch is the best decision that you have made in your life."

Those were big words. The ch designer had pushed himself into a corner by making this boast. He could not afford to do anything else but deliver the work that Reginald truly wanted to obtain.

It was good that the forr Skull Architect was no stranger to taking bold risks and working under pressure.

The Cross Patriarch turned his attention to the guest designers. Ves and Gloriana both looked eager and ready to turn their respective visions into reality. Juliet and Sara were a little more nervous due to their relatively lower experience.

"Are the four of you ready as well?"

"That goes without saying." Ves replied in a light-hearted tone. Whether he truly felt as relaxed as he sounded was a mystery. "We worked one-and-a-half years on this blasted design. It's ti we prove that we did not spend all of that ti in vain. The Mars is an expert ch of unsurpassed power and tech. It fully deserves to stand on the sa level as the Minerva in terms of quality of construction.

The Minerva was still the latest standard when it ca to masterwork chs in the Golden Skull Alliance. It was the most recent masterwork ch that Ves and company had produced, and it was one that attained its coveted state without the use of gems or other forms of external aid.

It would be a grand miscarriage of justice if the Minerva was able to beco a masterwork ch while its big brother failed to reach this threshold!

"Mars." Patriarch Reginald uttered the na as he would the na of a lover. "It is a simple and fitting na for my ch. When I looked it up on the galactic net, I found myself identifying what this ancient god has stood for. It is strange how the circumstances of ancient people who lived many millennia ago still echo the circumstances we live in today. We must unleash unsurpassed rage and fury on the battlefield in order to create lasting peace."

That was indeed a large reason why the Mars bore this na. Ves and the others hoped that its aweso power and might would form the deterrent needed to prevent the Golden Skull Alliance from being targeted by malicious parties.

"Don't worry, Reginald." Gloriana spoke up. "With our innovations, we will definitely ensure that the Mars will beco more than just an expert ch. It will literally be a god in the form of ch. When you finally get to pilot your new machine, the Mars will not only be a large tallic body that you can control in order to fight your opponents. It will be the divine seat that will play an essential role in your elevation to godhood."

The powerful expert pilot liked what he heard. "Hahahaha! That is exactly what I wish to attain! I truly hope that you can deliver the Mars that you have described into my hands at the end of this week. You and your Larkinsons will beco our eternal friends if you can succeed!"

The group exchanged a few more words until Professor Benedict deed that it was ti for them to start.

Maow.

Gloriana had already summoned Alexandria from her mind. Her companion spirit looked more than confident that she could play a pivotal role in the following days.

"Begin!"

As soon as Professor Benedict issued this command, everyone moved to their respective stations.

While Benedict assud control of the Cross Clan's high-quality superfab that was comparable in functionality to the Larkinson Clan's AP-VEX model, the other ch designers took control of various other machines.

The fabrication of the Abasis Armor, the Pulsvar V-1, the ARCEUS System and more were highly complex jobs that were better left to specialized production equipnt.

This way, each of them were imdiately able to begin work without needing to wait in line.

They had all familiarized themselves with the production machines. They even conducted a few virtual practice sessions in order to make sure they knew how to perform all of the difficult production steps.

Maow maow!

In the anti, Alexandria perford her job and ford a design network between each of the five ch designers.

None of them were new to this phenonon anymore. Even Professor Benedict had selectively opened up his mind during the tis where he helped the Larkinsons fabricate a couple of expert chs.

The only newcor to the design network was Patriarch Reginald himself. As Alexandria initially tried to establish a connection, her spiritual bond failed to reach the expert pilot!

Maow?!

Reginald's force of will was too strong and thick compared to other expert pilots.

As a demigod whose resonance strength had surpassed 60 laveres according to the latest asurent, the Cross Patriarch was much further removed from regular humans than most of his kind!

"You need to lower your guard and accept the connection." Ves paused his work and told the powerful expert pilot. "It will be uncomfortable at first, but as long as you are willing to share your thoughts and feelings to us, we will gain the information we need to attune your expert ch to you. This is but a small price to pay for a better result."

Though it was against his nature to bare so much of himself to other people, Reginald did not believe he had much to hide in the first place. It was clearly in his interest to cooperate if he wanted to obtain the ch of his dreams, so he reluctantly tried to lower his formidable guard.

As the air around him grew stiller and less volatile, Alexandria tried again and succeeded in forming a successful connection.

As soon as Patriarch Reginald joined the design network, his overpowering will and desires affected everyone else!

Maow!

Alexandria clearly struggled to hold back the tide and regulate the transmissions so that Ves and the other ch designers did not get distracted.

Fortunately, none of the participating ch designers were weak in mind. Having tempered themselves over the course of solving the most difficult challenges of the Mars Project, they adequately tolerated the additional pressure that Reginald's overpowering influence added to the mix.

Everyone beca entranced by the new perspectives and influences that Reginald's entry into the design network had sparked.

For example, Reginald beca more closely connected to Benedict than ever before. While both of them did not bare everything that took place in their minds to others, what they exposed on their own initiative was enough to give others a deeper understanding.

Reginald was impressed by how much fight there was in Professor Benedict. The Senior ch Designer was far from an ordinary nerd due to his turbulent life experiences. He had traits that were commonly found in warriors and he treated this fabrication run as a battle that he had to win at all costs.

The Cross Patriarch also gained a whole new appreciation of Gloriana's ambitious vision and intentions for his expert ch. Her god body concept was so intricate and beyond the norm that it looked truly possible for her efforts to produce a ch that could be described as divine!

Of course, Reginald did not understand any of the actual science and engineering involved in her work, and he did not make any attempt to learn anything related to such. He was more interested in the result than the process.

What Reginald gained from Ves was a much more thorough understanding and appreciation of living chs and design spirits.

He found it surprising how different Ves approached chs. The patriarch of the Larkinson Clan truly felt as if he was creating a new life as opposed to putting together a simple machine.

Juliet Staros and Sara Voiken also offered different perspectives on ch design and how they viewed the Mars. The expert ch design played a huge role for their developnt as well due to how powerful and extravagant it turned out. They were both proud to leave their stamp on this pivotal machine.

Another factor that impressed Reginald was how youthful and vigorous the Larkinson ch designers were compared to Professor Benedict.

The latter possessed the mindset and the attitude of an experienced professor who had gone through many storms. This caused Benedict to co across as weary and tired in so sense.

This made the presence of the four rather youthful Larkinson ch designers a lot more valuable. They were much more optimistic about their work and they were also a lot more fearless and daring in what they could accomplish.

The combination between new and old produced a wonderful synergy where both sides gained what they needed from each other.

With the addition of Patriarch Reginald who provided everyone with a powerful motivating influence, every ch designer beca significantly more engaged in their work.

Yet as work proceeded at a pace in the following hour, everyone involved felt as if there was sothing missing.

Ves slowly frowned as he realized that one of the conditions that he hoped would appear during this session had yet to erge.

"Serendipity has not graced us, it seems."

Professor Benedict, who endured most of the pressure, did not enter into an inspired state.

Regardless of his preparations and regardless of how extensively he committed himself to the Mars Project, his ntality remained as calm and controlled as ever.

Maybe too calm and controlled.

While he was definitely passionate about his work, he found it difficult to channel it without losing control entirely.

"Benedict." Ves spoke up from his station. "Do you want to…?"

The Senior nodded almost imdiately. "Do it, Ves."

That was fast. Ves had already discussed this option to Reginald beforehand, and the design network already exposed the consequences of this action, so there was nothing to discuss about.

Ves shrugged and paused his current work so that he could leave his station and move over to the superfab.

He pulled out a glowing hamr from his toolbelt and raised it over Professor Benedict's head.

For his part, Reginald made sure to temporarily deactivate his shield generator and his other defenses to prevent any accidents.

"Are you ready?" Ves carefully asked.

"Hit . I have grown curious about what I will experience under this state for a long ti."

"Here goes nothing, then!"

Whack!

As soon as the hamrhead tapped the Senior's head, an air of frenzied enlightennt imdiately exuded from his body!
