Chapter 18: Tungsten Infused Exoskeletal Armor
'What? Why!?' Ian screamed internally. 'You didn't ask me to pay for the ideas you suggested before!'
[Please understand. This is to prevent you from being overly dependent on me. What this system needs is a competent host, not a waste.]
Hearing this, Ian was speechless. He didn't know how to refute.
Indeed... If he becomes overly dependent, how is he worthy of the system? The additional cost for system suggestions was quite reasonable.
From now on, he should only rely on his system if he is at his end's wit or if it concerns his life. With this, he'll be able to grow. Asking the system all the time would hinder his creativity! In the long term, being overly dependent will make him weaker... Not physically, but mentally!
In the end, Ian could only heave a helpless sigh. 'I don't have a choice. You proceed, and I'll leave determining the right ratio for you.'
As Ian made the decision, a smile appeared on his face. He only needs to consume fifty Biomass for the right ratio. With the ratio, the mineral mixture in the armor would be far more stable or more appropriate, right?
On the other hand, if it's him who tries to recklessly, or to say, randomly guess the ratio, it might make the outcome worse, or at least, a lot less undesirable it's the system that decided.
[Affirmative. The Phantom Ghost Ratio is chosen. This ratio strikes the right balance between heat resistance and integrity of each component structure, whilst also retaining the exoskeletal armor's flexibility. Would the host like to proceed? Yes/No]
'The Phantom Ghost Ratio? Resistance? Structure?' Ian could only sigh at this. 'Who would have known that ratios between minerals would have a cheesy name? Yes, proceed!'
