3551 Unexpected Discovery

After concluding his long and hearty discussion with Ves, Professor Benedict finally returned to the Cross Clan's fleet. His shuttle headed straight back to the Cyclical Engine, the Cross Clan's equivalent of the Spirit of Bentheim.

Ves reflected on what he heard and what he learned from the Senior Mech Designer.

"I should take everything he said with a grain of salt."

There was no way a man as devious as Professor Benedict would remain straight. Each of his words had a purpose. If he needed to lie or fudge the truth in order to gain more sympathy, he would do it without any hesitation!

Ves knew this quite well because he would do the same if he was in the other man's position!

The only problem was that Ves couldn't quite figure out Professor Benedict's angle. Sure, the older mech designer deeply wanted to become a Master, but how did that tie into the man's words and actions?

"Opportunities. It's about opportunities."
