I have come back after a year, now at chapter 3537, to say that my fellow readers should NOT skip the war arc. Although it’s not required to understand the story going on, Ves develops quite a bit during this time period, and much of the content in the following arc can be better understood by reading this one. Plus, it’s actually quite entertaining, especially once you get past the middle.
I'm actually starting to look forward to this arc. Truthfully at some point Ves will have to run a design team. A lot of readers dig at this author because of filler chapters. They consider every non mech designing chapter to be a filler. So far however each storyline has intertwined with the purpose of broadening Ves's abilities and company. It's all working towards the goal of creating awesome mechs. It's rarely filler in the end... (There is usually a necessary part in continuing the story) I think that the author is doing a good job. That said... Let him learn some computer science in this arc!! Please! It bothers our collective ocd.
This marks a turning point in the story and while I am looking foreward to it I hope it doesn't last longer than a hundred chapters, this is a war after all so it should be longer than the expedition Arcs but not to long I hope. But dont worry about the system Ves, I am cerrain it will manage to keep track and award points for your design efforts in the war effort. I am certain Ves will have a veritable sea of points to spend by the time the war is over and he can check the system again, expecially if one or more of his designs gets adopted by the republic or if he gets partial credit for contribuiting to joint designs. Ves probably should of spent any remaining points to top off his physical stats before leaving though, perhaps he already did so to get Carlos his intelligence candies.
I hope everybody realizes that the fact Ves can access his inventory is a potentially big deal. Ignoring the restrictions on what he can put in it, what it means is that the System is more than likely in Ves, not his comm. My suspicion is that his comm, however upgraded it maybe is just an interface device. Meaning Ves could find a way to access a different interface or possibly level up enough to not need an interface. Speaking of other interfaces, I'm wondering if Energy-Being-Maybe-Mom comes along for the trip. She could easily walk up to Lucky and grab his comm. She's already the reason Ves can't have nice things so her stealing his comm wouldn't even be a stretch.
