章 2136: Growing Your Own Crops

As a mech designer who grew up within the confines of the MTA, Jovy Armalon enjoyed a very privileged background.

He was not some talent that the MTA recruited later in life. Instead, he was born into the Association, and that pretty much set him up for life.

Of course, the biggest hurdle stopping many ambitious MTA mech designers from gaining real prominence was the jump from Apprentice to Journeyman.

Even the MTA couldn't ensure guaranteed promotion. No matter how many tricks the Association pulled off in order to skew the odds in its favor, the next generation of mech designers ultimately had to rely on themselves to advance!
