Chapter 2531 Shortcomings and Disadvantages
The Esoterist entertained a minute of silence as the Human Summit processed what they just saw. They just saw an Apprentice brawl with a Squire, tank his blows, and even deal damage of his own through his MECHA weapon.
Unless this Martial Apprentice was a talent as extraordinary as the Dawnbringer himself, this battle was truly stunning.
"I can assure you..." the Esoterist remarked knowingly. "That this was an average Apprentice, an average MECHA, and an average Squire. As I have stated, I have had the opportunity to conduct many studies on MECHAs, including to measure their power. I will be publishing them in renowned peer-reviewed journals for all of you to pore over."
The Esoterist's words broke the stupor that much of the Human Summit found themselves in, returning their sense of awareness back to the conference at hand.
"I have presented you with the revolutionary strengths and power of MECHAs, and now it would be remiss of me as a scholar to not delve into its categorical shortcomings," he continued. "Of which there are more than I would like to admit."
His words grounded them.
Of course, there were shortcomings and caveats.
A MECHA pilot would be able to mow down an army of spearmen or swordsmen from the looks of it.
"Additionally, and this is a disadvantage for MECHA Martial Artists, but their individuality can only occur as long as their MECHAs are customized to suit their Martial Path just like the Martial Body is. This means that in order to progress, MECHA Martial Artists will need to depend on MECHA developers, they cannot progress without them."
This would also dampen enthusiasm for MECHA among prospective Martial Artists, but not by too much.
Ultimately, MECHA Martial Artists would most certainly be the absolute very strongest of the strongest in each Realm that they touched.
"There are a myriad of other smaller advantages and disadvantages that would take me forever to cover, so I have included all of them into the documents that the Beggar's Sect will distribute around the world." He smiled. "Be sure to deeply familiarize yourself with all of it. And for now, that brings me to an end of the final solution I have prepared for human civilization."
He waved his hand, shutting off the projections and the screen. "I believe that MECHAs are the future of Martial Art. All this time, Martial Artists and technology have been in a silent competition. I'm sure that many of you have suspected that my ambition was to crush Martial Art with esoteric technology and frankly..."
He shrugged with a mischievous smile. "I most certainly did. In fact, until a year ago, I most certainly still harbored the goal of crushing Martial Art with the power of esoteric technology."
His smile disappeared and his eyes grew serious. "That was until the first MECHA pilot broke through to the Apprentice Realm and I witnessed their unrivaled dominance and the unfathomable potential of MECHA Martial Artists. What was merely just a side project of intellectual curiosity and academic pursuit showed me a new world that I simply could not deny. I realized that esoteric technology would never be able to outcompete MECHA Martial Artists. The same could be said for normal Martial Artists. I truly believe that MECHA will be the future and rest assured..."
His eyes flared with determination. "I will exert every ounce of my mind to ensure that no other future is possible. I would advise all human nations to adopt MECHA or eventually fall behind those that have. You would be foolish to deny power due to your fear of the unknown. Power is power. And we are in an apocalypse that could wipe us all out if we don't muster every ounce of power we have."
