His recent foray to the Joe System and his subsequent translocation to the planet that hosted crystal city drained all of his DP.
Ves did not regret the spending. Besides upgrading his Physics Skill to a ludicrous level for his age, he also cracked some of the secrets to alien technology and obtained a highly capable handheld multiscanner.

It would be the most expedient way to milk some quick DP, but only if he designed his virtual mech fast enough.
