The Mech Touch novel Chapter 1379

\"Mew.. mrrrrrew..\"

\"Meow meow meow!\"

\"Miaooooow! Miaoooow!\"

Cats. Cats everywhere. As soon as Ves touched down at the busy spacepart with his entourage in tow, he immediately confronted hundreds of free range cats!

The entire spaceport adopted a very friendly cat theme. Smiling animated cats projected all over the place delighted the children of the families that had just begun their vacation.

Of course, many families also brought their own cats along. Organic cats, mechanical cats and virtual cats all meowed at each other as if they were chatting to each other like humans!

Strangely enough, Lucky refused to partake in the pointless exchange of meows. Like an emperor among peasants, the gem cat merely stuck up both his head and his tail as if he awaited the adoration of lesser cats!

...

Unfortunately, hardly any cat acknowledged Lucky’s existence! This was an absolute travesty to him! Didn’t these cats realize that an eminent example of their kind was among them? Did they just dismiss him as if he was a common house cat?!

\"MEOOOOOWWW!!!\"

Ves dinged Lucky’s flank with his knuckle. \"Pipe down, Lucky. Don’t cause a disturbance here. There are kids around and lots of security to ensure nothing spoils their fun!\"

Amidst all the bright visuals and friendly cats, a lot of guards and bots patrolled the halls in order to keep the peace.

Naturally, none of the guards wore intimidating suits of armor. Instead, they wore bright uniforms with cartoonish cats depicted across their surface. Every security guard maintained a smile or at least a friendly demeanor in order to present a happy facade. Even their weapon had been designed to resemble cat-themed toys!

\"Don’t mistake these guards as weaklings.\" Nitaa warned them all. \"The men who guard a busy spaceport like this one are skilled in many different areas. Not only that, but they are very perceptive and can spot anyone that poses a threat to public safety.\"

Crindon nodded in agreement. \"Even their weapons are deceptively capable. All the extra components shaped like cat limbs or cat tails are additional modules supporting alternate firing modes. They can discharge a variety of both lethal and non-lethal projectiles.\"

\"Can you guys relax?\" Gavin complained. \"We’re here for a holiday, right? There’s no reason to assess the strength of the guards!\"

\"Benny is right. I know you’re just doing your jobs, but don’t look too jumpy.\"

Compared to Nitaa and Crindon who were warily looking everywhere for potential threats, the two nobles who accompanied them looked much more at ease.

\"Thanks for bringing us along, Mr. Larkinson.\" Imon Ingvar said. \"Staying cooped up on the Ion Tracker for months on end is not how I envisioned my first mercenary mission.\"

Casella Ingvar whacked her brother’s side. \"You should be lucky that nothing has happened! We’re still earning our pay even if we never have the opportunity to fight. Our presence alone serves as a deterrence!\"

The group slowly moved out of the spaceport and took a cat-shaped transit vehicle that brought them straight to a nearby city.

Not surprisingly, Ves stood out from the crowd. Most visitors consisted of Sentinel commoners or middle-class foreigners looking to experience something novel and different.

While Ves did spot people with means at the spaceport, they were few and far between. The Eron Continent held very little attraction to power-hungry people who desired to enhance their reputation and prestige! Hugging friendly cats all day was not going to do their stature any good!

\"Mr. Larkinson, can I ask you a question?\" Imon asked.

\"Sure.\"

\"Why did you decide to visit the Eron Continent?\"

Ves smiled. \"Why not?\"

\"Eron is just for kids and cat lovers. There’s nothing related to combat or mechs going on here!\"

\"Exactly. Before I visit the Asco Continent in order to try my luck, I want to see the other sides of Felixia first. If the cat on my shoulder isn’t obvious enough, let me tell you that I adore cats!\"

In truth, he liked dogs and other animals as well, but right now he wanted to maintain the act of a cat person!

Fortunately, Felixia made it really easy for people to love their cats.

Even now, various photogenic cats lounging in the cat-shaped vehicle lounged on the laps of delighted passengers. Children, women and even men couldn’t help but surrender at the cuteness emanated by the friendly cats. Lots of squeals and petting ensued!

Just as a white long-haired persian cat neared their seats was about to hop onto Ves’ lap, Lucky suddenly hissed.

\"Meow!\"

\"Maw!\"

The persian cat jumped like a frightened kitten and immediately bolted through a small cat-sized tunnel beneath the seats! His fluffy white tail snaked through the gap like a withdrawing snake!

\"Why did you do that, Lucky?\"

\"Meow.\"

\"I pet you practically every day! I’m not your exclusive property, you know. Sometimes I’d like to touch real fur instead of your bony hard shell!\"

\"Meow!\"

Ves could only admit defeat against his unyielding cat. Lucky often acted aloof when they were by themselves, but now that Ves visited an entire planet filled with cats, his pet suddenly turned into a jealous husband!

Gavin and some of the others tried to stifle their laughs and hide their amusement. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

\"Seriously though, I’m also visiting Eron for another reason.\" Ves explained to his group. \"There’s a lot of pets and services related to genetic modification for sale. Both cats and humans undergo a lot of changes every day.\"

\"Are you interested in getting cat ears or something, boss?\"

\"My genome can’t take anymore additions. It’s already highly optimized and adding different organs will just mess that up. I merely want to take in the sights and see how popular these services are. I think genetic modification is making a resurgence again.\"
