379 Ruyi Mecha (3)

Ning Shi then said to Ye Hongmian, “Mian, if you’re not satisfied with your mecha, you can also ask Ball to make one for you.”

The reason why Ning Shi dared to say this was because Ball had 100 Level 2 sub-bodies. The Level 2 sub-bodies could inherit Ball’s innate ability to absorb energy, allowing the smaller helium ore to continuously grow and reach the standard of advanced mechas.

Therefore, Ning Shi now had the ability to produce 100 advanced mechas, and these advanced A-class helium cores could continue to grow.

Nico did not reject Ning Shi’s good intentions. After thanking Ning Shi repeatedly, she went to discuss the details of the mecha with Ball.

However, Ye Hongmian shook her head and said, “Ning Shi, although my mecha isn’t perfect, it’s enough. You still have some misconceptions about mecha, so I’ll explain it to you.

“After a mecha is successfully manufactured, it needs the continuous maintenance of the mecha master to make the mecha stronger.”

Ye Hongmian looked at the interior of the factory and said softly, “You can treat the mecha as your second body. This body also needs to ‘eat’ to replenish its nutrients, ‘exercise’ to become stronger, and ‘doctors’ to maintain and repair it.

“This is also why the creators are the most powerful group of mecha masters. They create their own mecha and know the mecha like the back of their hands. They know how to maintain it and how to continue strengthening it.

“The strength of a mecha doesn’t remain unchanged after it’s born. The process of ‘nurturing a mecha’ is very important. Many mechas aren’t strong at the beginning, but after constant maintenance by the mecha master, they eventually bloom with powerful brilliance and advance to a titled mecha.”

“Once a mecha master chooses a mecha, it’s best not to change it. Even if your mecha’s starting point is lower, you can think of other ways to make up for it.

“This is because the cost of changing mechas is usually higher. Moreover, it also involves the moral issues of the mecha master.

“In the Star Field Alliance, mecha masters are now very loyal to their mecha. Changing mecha will be looked down upon.

“You just asked me if I wanted to change my mecha. This question is very sensitive in the Star Field Alliance. Don’t ask others like this in the future, or it will easily cause disputes.”

Ning Shi heard Ye Hongmian’s introduction and nodded. He continued to ask, ‘Then if my initial mecha is a beginner or intermediate mecha, then when I encounter an advanced mecha later, can’t I change it?”

Ye Hongmian replied gently, ‘The initial mecha is not the first mecha you pilot. The initial mecha refers to the first mecha you approve of.

‘Once you acknowledge a mecha and invest your feelings, energy, and resources into it, try not to change it.

‘Pardon me for being blunt, but a beginner or intermediate mecha is not worthy of your recognition. It is not worth you investing more resources.

‘Thus, there is no problem with switching between beginner and intermediate mecha. They are not your second body, but a tool.

‘This is a tacit consensus in the Star Field Alliance.”

‘Why?” Ning Shi asked in confusion. “Could it be that no one has ever maintained a beginner or intermediate mecha into a top-notch mecha?” ‘Due to the special properties of helium ores, the minimum requirement for producing beginner mechas is the size of a fist,” Ye Hongmian said. “The minimum requirement for producing intermediate mechas is the size of a football.

‘These two types of standard helium ores do not have the ability to automatically recover energy. The helium cores made from these helium ores had less and less energy.

‘This also means that the helium cores of the beginner and intermediate mecha will run out of energy one day, and they will need to replace the helium cores.

‘I as for the helium ores used to make advanced mechas, the minimum requirement is 60cm in diameter. A helium ore of this size can automatically recover its energy consumption. Some top-grade helium ores can even slowly absorb energy and continuously become bigger and stronger.

’11t is precisely because of this that we say that only advanced mechas have maintenance value.

‘Furthermore, the best mechas that humans can make are advanced mechas. Those titled mechas and Star Mechas are all made from the accumulated maintenance of advanced mechas.

‘Now that you have an advanced mecha, it’s time to teach you the knowledge of mecha maintenance..
