Ves felt that he had just gone through one of the most dangerous and significant checkpoints of his life!
All kinds of awful outcomes could have happened if the Polymath discovered that he possessed the Mech Designer System.
Though Ves deeply wanted to believe in the Polymath's stellar reputation and noble sentiments, he would be a fool to think that anyone could remain truly selfless.
Anything that was related to the Metal Scroll was immensely powerful. Leaving it in the hands of a mere Journeyman was a huge waste when it could do so much more in the hands of a Star Designer.
If there was ever a boundary beyond the rank of Star Designer, then humanity as a whole would gain a lot more if the Polymath gained a better chance of breaking through it with the help of a more complete piece of the Metal Scroll!
This was all of the justification that the leader of the Survivalist needed to rob Ves of his System and silence him in a permanent fashion.
