Chapter 6322 God Kingdom Building Theory

After the latest Battle of Cartagena II came to a conclusion, the Terran soldiers reacted with restrained jubilation.

They were quite happy with the results of this battle!

Though they failed to attain a more significant victory, they were already happy that they managed to beat off a determined alien assault.

The fighting also ended at a fairly early stage, thereby sparing them from a lot of grueling fighting.

The only Terrans that reacted with slight dissatisfaction were the battle maniacs among the mech pilots who sought to push themselves beyond their limits when the urgency was greater.

After the Dark Zephyr spent a few hours shadowing the organized withdrawal of the jureg armada in order to make sure the aliens were not trying to pull off a secret ruse, the ace light skirmisher leisurely flew back to the orbit of New Cartagena II.

As the ace light skirmisher made his way back to the flagship of the Brusilov Fleet, Tusa received plenty of praises from the soldiers still in the field.

The pilots of the powerful first-class multipurpose mechs that cost so much money that Tusa could not imagine it a few years ago all expressed their heartfelt gratitude and admiration.

Tusa felt both... gratified and bewildered.

As an ace pilot, he could clearly feel that these Terrans were sincere in their messages. This went beyond politics or national pride. On this day, they had fought side by side as defenders of red humanity, and they managed to inflict a defeat that the juregs would be feeling for quite a while!

Everyone knew that Saint Tusa and his Dark Zephyr played the decisive role in delivering victory this time. The new ace light skirmisher cooperated so well with the Whispering Willow that the latter was able to make much more telling blows than in past battles!

Though Tusa did not entirely feel that he deserved so much praise for essentially imitating a very annoying mosquito tormenting a random person, he somehow felt much more fulfilled than he did in his previous battles during the Red War.

Tusa was not exactly a man who was good with words. He was unable to completely figure out why he felt a lot better about himself.

Perhaps it was just the simple fact that he had piloted a powerful first-class ace mech in battle for the very first time. The difference in performance between the current and previous iteration of the Dark Zephyr was very obvious!

"Madame Gloriana and Master Benedict Cortez have done good work." Tusa said as he felt sincerely grateful to the two mech designers who successfully converted the Dark Zephyr into a powerful first-class ace mech. "It will be hard for them to top this work."

The Dark Zephyr was already so brilliantly powerful that Tusa could not imagine how the mech designers could make his living mech any more powerful.

Of course, he knew that he was most definitely wrong about this. Technology became better all of the time. It was only a matter of time before Ves or another brilliant mech designer introduced a radical new tech that rewrote the rules and set an entirely new standard in the mech community. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

After the Dark Zephyr entered a more private hangar bay and set down right next to the Whispering Willow, Saint Tusa shut down his machine and exited the cockpit.

He grew a little disappointed that his mentor was not around, but it was unreasonable to expect such a powerful and important figure to wait in the hangar bay for several hours.

Fortunately, Tusa met with a familiar face.

"You have done well, Saint Tusa." Lieutenant Daria Dostoevskaya greeted him with respect. "Please follow me to the changing room where you can freshen yourself up and wear a dress uniform. We have organized a victory banquet that will start shortly after you arrive."

Tusa raised his eyebrow. It was not unusual for the Larkinsons to organize banquets and parties to celebrate particularly notable victories, but he did not exactly feel that driving away the juregs from New Cartagena II merited such an occasion.

"I guess so. A long campaign consists of more than a single battle. There will be other opportunities next time. I just have to become stronger and develop my skillsets further. Speaking of that, I am grateful to you for teaching me how ace pilots are able to develop such strong techniques. I found it much easier to channel my strength in an image that expresses one of my strong ideals. How many of these images have you created for yourself?"

"..."

"That few? I would have expected for a peak ace pilot like yourself to amass a sizable arsenal."

"..."

"I see. So it is quality that matters, not quantity. The relevance and how much you care about stuff is more important than thoughtlessly creating a lot of abilities that ultimately lead to dead ends because you can't grow them any further."

"..."

Tusa widened his eyes as his mentor wordlessly conveyed a more critical lesson!

The theory claims that ace pilots could make a head-start to developing their god kingdoms by selectively creating strong artistic conceptions that were related to each other.

"That... I did not know that. Thank you for telling me that. Perhaps there are other ways to cross the great divide, but doing it like this sounds more reliable than the alternatives."

The Messenger of Silence just espoused a possible theory on how ace pilots could one day successfully cross the road of no return and advance to the coveted rank of god pilot!

The theory claims that ace pilots could make a head-start to developing their god kingdoms by selectively creating strong artistic conceptions that were related to each other.

To a veteran Terran ace pilot like Saint Dostoevsky, a God Kingdom should be much more complex and multifaceted than a Saint Kingdom.

The former should begin to resemble a kingdom in a more literal sense. It had to consist of several 'territories' comprising multiple different artistic conceptions that were not only relevant to the pilot, but also carried strong emotional attachments.

If successful enough, a peak ace pilot that attempted to transcend to godhood would find that it was much faster and easier to transition their domain fields into fully-fledged God Kingdoms!

This was why the theory shared by the Messenger of Silence was called the God Kingdom Building Theory.

By 'completing their homework' in advance, these peak ace pilots did not have to rely on the Mech Body Merger Process to forcefully fill up all of the gaps and hastily convert their weaker domain fields into much more powerful God kingdoms. The assumption here was that the extra energy and effort that ace pilot had to expend on making up for this shortcoming was a critical reason why so many of them ultimately fell short.

"How common is this theory? Has it been proven to be true?"

"..."

Tusa grew disappointed. There was not enough data to prove that it had any significant effect on the success rate.

The biggest problem was that the sample size was too low. Not all god pilots managed to emerge while following this theory.

The ace pilot that tried to follow the recommendations of the God Kingdom Building Theory still died on an overwhelming basis. The ones that somehow succeeded could have easily survived for many other reasons besides this single factor!

That did not stop Tusa from embracing it, though. He had no way of knowing whether it was correct, but he was convinced by its logic. The fact that an ace pilot as powerful and admirable as the Messenger of Silence made use of it himself was also a convincing reason to give it a try!
