The Mech Touch

6900  Test Dummy Mech

When Ves and Gloriana explained many of the complications that superdimensional technology had introduced to the Riot Mark III Project, it became clear that neither of them felt good about this situation.

Ves reached out and placed his hand on the expert pilot's shoulder. "Let me be straight with you, Rosa. The timing of the Riot Mark III Project is poor. We are working on it in a time where superdimensional tech has only recently become available to red humanity. That means that your expert mech has no choice but to become our experimental platform."

"So my battle partner has become your test dummy?"

"More or less. The Riot Mark III will serve as the prototype for all subsequent superdimensional archemechs. It is rather unfortunate that the timing has relegated him to this role. If you do not agree with this and want to wait for us to advance the development of fusing superdimensional tech with archetech, then you can request us to delay the completion of the upgrade by a year or two. We can guarantee you that we should have made much more progress in this research direction. We will also be able to implement other advanced forms of cutting-edge tech such as superdimensional energy cells and superdimensional flight systems."

In other words, the following two years was a period of great technological turbulence.

Just like the start of the Phasewater Generation and the Hyper Generation, the emergence of superdimensional tech represented the start of a new technological arms race. Many scientists and engineers who possessed the qualifications to obtain samples of superdimensional matter eagerly tried to translate their existing expertise into a large variety of useful new applications.

Ves actually felt a little envious at all of these researchers and mech designers for being able to tap into the power of superdimensional tech. Their attainments in materials science, metallurgy and other relevant fields gave them an excellent foundation to blaze new trails in this highly promising field.

Meanwhile, Ves had little choice but to stay in his own lane and continue to delve into the potential of hyper technology and E-technology. There was nothing wrong with this as both fields still offered a lot of untapped potential, but they no longer appeared as exciting as before due to the emergence of a brand new discipline.

It was irrational for him to feel jealous that superdimensional tech had overshadowed his favorite scientific directions.
