Chapter 6633 Casual Confession

Chapter 6633 Casual Confession While Ves and Ketis were just beginning to spread the multiple advancements they completed during their marathon in the Red Ocean, Veronica only had to present a single revised and improved project. It was arguably the biggest advancement that came out of the 9-month period. This was because the work done on the mech designs of the Rule Breaker Project would affect far more humans and aliens in the Milky Way than the entire population of sentient beings in the Red Ocean! Unlike how Ves danced around his big secret in the presence of his wife, Veronica decided to take on a completely different approach when she next met with Master Willix. "...so that is what I have been secretly doing for 9 months straight." Master Willix showed little emotion as she took in the confession made by the Cyborg Cat. "Fascinating. This certainly explains your explosive success and your revolutionary advancements. The power of this 'Mech Designer System' is unfathomable, but that is to be expected from a fragment of the supposedly destroyed Metal Scroll. I am pleased that you have decided to disclose the existence of this advantage to me, but you did not have to do so. It would have been wiser to keep it to yourself. I have become an additional security risk to you now. I do not need to tell you how the Mech Trade Association will react towards any news about your possession." "It's okay." Veronica sighed. "If one of my mother's grand schemes ends up successful, I think it will be hard to maintain this secret for long in this galaxy. Besides, I have worked alongside you long enough to know that you are incredibly smart and observant. You would have connected the dots by yourself. I just saved you all of the trouble and gave you a direct explanation so that there is no ambiguity or misinterpretations. It will also save me the effort of explaining how I am able to come up with such a significant revision and improvement of our recently completed mech designs." "Again, I appreciate your candor and your willingness to extend your trust to me. I shall do my best not to divulge this information to others until the secrecy has passed." Once Veronica cleared up this important matter, she proceeded to present the Carmine mech designs that she had tinkered during her marathon. "When I had 9 extra months at my disposal, I occasionally developed new ideas about how to further improve and optimize various aspects of the Rule Breaker Project. I managed to improve, expand and refine the E-technology of all three mech designs of the project. However, when I reached the end of this extra period, I decided to use one of the functions of the System to apply a massive improvement to the Rule Breaker Version A design." He proceeded to project the Superpublished mech design in the air so that Master Willix could study all of the improvements. The Rule Breaker Project encompassed three separate mech designs in total. Even though they were first-class, second-class and third-class versions of the same concept, they still counted as separate mech designs from the perspective of the Mech Designer System. This was why Veronica decided to Superpublish the most advanced version. This provided the greatest benefits and certainly taught her a lot about first-class mech designs. Willix did not show any overt reactions, but Veronica could tell she became seriously impressed by the improved design. "Whatever your System has done, it has actually refined and improved many of my technical solutions through interesting and inspired means. These advancements are incredibly valuable to a mech designer of my level. Being able to improve the effective performance of a mech design by a several percent is an astonishing amount of progress to a mech designer at my level. You have given me a glimpse of how my mech designs could have improved several decades in the future. The greatest point of concern is that they may not represent my own vision. If my assumptions about your System are correct, it has sought to improve the performance of the mech design by applying the most economical solutions." She was probably correct about that. Veronica understood the underlying implication behind this message. Using the Superpublish function as a shortcut to improving her design applications may not be a wise idea. The System possessed no apparent biases and adhered to no specific design style when it improved a mech design through the Superpublish function. While most of the improvements were merely extensions of an existing design style or approach, there were other advancements that distinctly took other approaches. It was not necessarily a good idea for a mech designer to apply radically different styles in a single mech design. The lack of coordination and possible cases of anti-synergy would ultimately lead to worse outcomes if Veronica tried to incorporate the improvements without too much thought. That did not stop Master Willix from memorizing and scheduling time to study the improved design in detail. Her foundation was already extremely solid, and she was confident she could fully digest the improvements made by the System based on her extensive knowledge in many different fields. Rational mech designers were not afraid of absorbing foreign knowledge. She was already accustomed to absorbing and integrating additional data and information from a style that was different from her own. Her specially trained and augmented brain was able to catalog and segregate different design styles so that they would not easily mix with each other. "Will lear how you can improve the current level of your sign ability improve your chances of breaking through to the rank of Star Designer?" The Cyborg Cat curiously asked. "Not necessarily." The Survivalist mech designer shook her head. "It will only make me a better Master Mech Designer. There is no direct correlation between a good Master Mech Designer and a good Star Designer. To become the latter, you need to move beyond engineering and master the underlying concepts of what makes a good mech design. It is too early for you to learn about this. What I have said only applies to mech designers who have already reached a highly advanced state of the fundamentals of mech design. You are still in a stage of fast development, so there is clearly plenty of room for improvement in your case." Veronica nodded in understanding. She did not dwell too much about what it took to become a Star Designer and instead focused on the more immediate issue. "The Rule Breaker Version A is clearly a step above Version B and Version C. I have already incorporated the E-technology improvements of the former to the latter. You should do the same for the areas that you are good at in order to raise the quality and performance of Version B and Version C as much as possible. After that, you should convert them into mech templates as we previously intended before presenting our finished works to our mother. I am sure she is waiting for us to deliver our results any day" Master Willix performed a series of calculations in her mind. "Understood. I will finish the revisions in two days. The mech templates will be ready by then. I have already completed much of the preliminary work on them. At that point, the Rule Breaker Project will be ready for release on a galactic scale. Any mech designer or design team that has worked with mech templates in the past will know exactly what to do regardless of where they are stationed in the Milky Way. This is an enormous project. Are you certain that you want to release the Rule Breaker Project in this state? Do you wish to apply any further last-minute changes, or are you content with the current configuration and designs?" Veronica fell silent for a moment. Truthfully, she felt unwilling to release the Rule Breaker Project in its current state. This was because all three versions of it were technically fourth generation living mechs. Yes. Just as Veronica recently completed the development of the seventh generation of living mechs, the Rule Breaker Project was still stuck with the antiquated fourth generation! This was because all of the advancements that Veronica managed to make after the fourth generation could only take effect in a medium or high-energy environment. Exotic radiation was entirely absent in the Milky Way, so there was no reasonable way to incorporate design applications such as mech cultivation and so on into his old galaxy products. Only a handful of future advancements could still be applied to the Rule Breaker Project. For example, it may be possible for her to implement a weaker version of his Ultimate Modules. She declined to do so in this case in order to keep his work as simple and economical as possible. Other solutions such as High Autonomy Living Mechs or HALM could be considered a viable advancement of his old galaxy living mechs, but could also be applied to his new frontier products. Right now, the split between the two different product categories was not too big, but Veronica wondered whether she would have to make a more formal and permanent split. As time passed by, her new frontier living mechs would become increasingly more magical and powerful. The more she became proficient in hyper technology and E-technology, the more high-impact design applications she could add to his works! Her old galaxy living mechs on the other hand would probably not be able to improve their hard performance by a considerable margin. Instead, the future works she intended to distribute throughout the Milky Way would mostly be better in terms of efficiency, functional tech upgrades and improved alloy formulas. The value of the latter was still decent, but it didn't make Veronica as excited as implementing more drastic innovations. She was better able to appreciate the influence that the environment exerted on the works that could be made. Technological development in the Milky Way was still largely constrained to fundamental technical and material development. This was why progress in this galaxy would probably remain fairly slow and stable for the foreseeable time. Many mech designers had already picked the low-hanging fruit, thereby forcing them to pursue much more difficult and advanced research projects if they wanted to make further progress. The state of the tech industry in the Red Ocean was much more vigorous in comparison. Few people held any interest in researching boring topics related to well-trodden disciplines. People were much more motivated in exploring the hidden potential of new and emerging fields such as phasewater technology, hyper technology and E-technology! Veronica lamented the fact that she would not be able to transfer many of her fantastic advancements from the Red Ocean to the Milky Way. "Oh well." She did not let the limitations bother her too much. She instead tried to see the 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚 differences in a better light. The lack of E energy radiation would force her to focus on improving her fundamentals instead. This should keep her mech design capabilities sharp and help her round out her development trajectory. It was not necessarily a good idea for her to ignore the basics and chase after the shiniest tech all of the time. Two days passed by in a blink. Before Veronica knew it, Master Willix met with the Cyborg Cat yet again and presented the revised mech designs as well as their more generalized mech templates. "So this is what they look like." The cat stared with wonder as she looked at the less precise but still information-rich mech templates. "It is truly as you have said. You have managed to decouple the use of specific materials in mech designs to a fairly strict set of rules and specifications. If I was not familiar with the ideal design, I would probably try to make a mess if I attempted to derive a functional mech design from this template. Should we publish the ideal mech designs as well in order to give all of the mech designers a more precise impression what they should be working towards?" Master Willix shook her head in rejection. "No. It is better this way. Do not underestimate the Masters who are highly experienced in this line of work. They will be able to derive a mech design that is close to our original by themselves. They will still incorporate their own unique touches and nuances to their versions, and that is what makes this so great. No Rule Breaker mech will be completely alike. Regional variations will arise and have the potential to diverge over time as more and more mech designers seek to differentiate 'their' Carmine mechs. This will ultimately stimulate the mech industry."
