Just a single attack was all it took to heavily damage and down a combat carrier with just a single shot.

Though the demonstration did not reveal too much, what everyone saw just now made many of them suspect that the newly introduced mech model had just redefined the concept of heavy artillery!

She agreed with Ves not because she agreed with her arguments, but she had to believe that determinism did not exist in order to make room for a possibility where her cute little boy would be saved from getting killed by his own cruel and merciless father!

"The act of procreation should not be treated as a clinical procedure." Ves explained his thoughts. "It should be a sacred process where the acts will result in a miracle that comes in the form of a precious new life. You do not have to follow my advice, but I strongly believe that there should be a strong sense of ritual to your reproduction process. The love and other strong emotions evoked by two living mechs that are deeply enamored with each other should enable them to impart much more strength in the product of their union, thereby resulting in a stronger overall result."

"You are being too short-sighted, Ves. You need to grasp the right opportunities. Good impressions are vital to navigating first-class communities. Our goal is to integrate into them. The best way to do that is to play by their rules. Do you know how much first-raters look down on lesser humans? It is much more difficult for us to gain acceptance from other first-raters if we continually present ourselves as second-raters! The way we think, the way we dress and the way we treat ourselves are all repulsive to every first-rater that we have interacted with! The least we can do is to adapt to the local culture and give them one less reason to ridicule us behind our backs."

They had to possess limits! Ves should not get overwhelmed by their intimidating titles and mistake them as actual gods or whatever.

Ves could practically feel the money rolling in at this time.

"Professor Larkinson is playing with fire. Designing autonomous mechs that can think and act by themselves is already dangerous enough. Giving them the power to evolve and develop without any human direction or supervision makes them even more dangerous! Has he learned nothing from the AI accidents of the past? It only takes a couple of accidents for his living mechs to turn them against their own owners. These living mechs must be castrated in order to prevent such an occurrence. It would be too late to strain these crazy machines when they have spread all across our society."

"Don't be fooled by the innocent look of that cat. That Lucky is a killer that hides great power. My intuition is screeching in alarm whenever I stare at it. That cat is evil, I tell you. Evil!"

Though Vulcan already possessed a decent understanding of Joja Firebreath through the latter's prayers and other interactions, Ves did not really have a good impression of this dwarf.

"Besides, the most powerful humans who possess the means to take your life are already high-tier galactic citizens themselves. They are far more embedded in the existing power structure of our civilization. They have more to lose than anyone else, and are far more attached to the society that they have helped to build over the course of many generations. The higher their tier, the more unthinkable it is for them to betray our collective cause. This means that the only ones who are likely to take action are outcasts and other disaffected parties who are not doing so well."

One of the reasons why Ves originally added energy devouring capabilities to his crucial companion spirit was because he wanted to turn the Star Cat into a nemesis of all qi cultivators!

Or would the two spirits try to fight and devour each other in an attempt to 'monopolize' the mech they inhabited?

Though it became clear to the more knowledgeable mech insiders that the defenses and mobility of the Ultimatum UDS-550 did not stand out in the slightest, it did not have to be. Nobody truly bought heavy artillery mechs for their ability to withstand fire or capacity to move faster than a turtle.
