Yang Bo had not found a suitable excuse to visit the Ninth Fleet.
But there was no rush. For now, the matter still seemed far off.
Besides, he had no way to pick and choose. Expecting to get whatever configuration he wanted was somewhat unrealistic.
So Yang Bo came to Vicki City and continued upgrading the mechas' operating systems.
In the Scarlet Federation, mechas were the primary fighting force.
Although the major powers within the Scarlet Federation also possessed warships and armed spaceships.
They would not readily deploy warships or armed spaceships.
Because armed spaceships and warships were far too destructive.
Armed spaceships and warships could easily wipe out an entire city.
But there was no point in doing so. What the major powers fought over were cities and populations.
If both sides used spaceships and warships to defeat their opponents.
Then the Scarlet Federation's future would hold nothing but destruction.
Because using spaceships and warships to defeat an opponent would inevitably reduce all the wealth on the ground to nothing.
That was why the Scarlet Federation Council had established strict laws centuries ago restricting the authority to use armed spaceships and warships.
If any faction used spaceships or warships first in an internal conflict or dispute, all other factions would launch a devastating strike against that first mover.
It was somewhat like nuclear power on Earth.
It was precisely because of this environment that mechas had become the backbone of the major powers.
Of course, for top-tier powers, armed spaceships and warships could not be used, but they still could not go without them.
