The Mech Touch

Chapter 6895  Red Collective Offers

Ves wanted to hear more details on what kind of forces the Phase Lord Department and the Enforcement Department were willing to contribute to the Bluejay Fleet.

Since both of them competed against each other, their offers should not be too bad, or else they would lose too easily to their rivals.

"Let's start with the offer of the Phase Lord Department. What can I expect?"

Eliza activated a projection that displayed a familiar troop of human phase lords clad in light blue and purple coated raiments.

"You should already be familiar with the Ur-Titan Phalanx. This is the first organized unit of human phase lords and serves as the model of all subsequent phalanxes. The Ur-Titans have come to develop a more defense-oriented approach towards combat. This is partially because they are assigned to guard duties more often than not, but it is also because they are equipped with heavier and more cumbersome raiments."

"Sounds expensive."

"It is." Eliza replied while switching the projection to display a different unit of human phase lords. "The Phase Lord Department has instead offered to send 12 soldiers of its more recent Flesh Chopper Phalanx. Different from the Ur-Titans, the Flesh Choppers are armed with lighter raiments and large battleaxes."

"So what are they good at?" Ves asked even though he could already make a good guess.

"The Flesh Choppers are considerably more suited for offensive operations and have focused most of their training in this aspect. They can fight as a standalone unit or in a combined arms force. They can even be used in ambushes as they can hide their folded bodies inside a stealth shuttle until it is time for them to go into action. Doing this will deprive them of much of their equipment, though. Their raiments and weapons cannot change in size, so if the Flesh Choppers are used in stealth assaults, they will have to fight without their best gear at their disposal."

That sounded interesting. Even without any hard weapons and armor, Ves could easily foresee this being useful in many different situations!
