The Mech Touch

Chapter 6652 The Introduction of Security Zones

Human civilization in the Milky Way Galaxy occupied a vast amount of territory.

Half the galaxy encompassed a huge amount of star systems, of which only a fraction was occupied by humans,

Even so, this still amounted to an astronomical amount of planets that were populated by millions if not billions of people each!

The enormous territories occupied by humans made it so that central authorities such as the Mech Trade Association and the Common Fleet Alliance lacked the numbers to properly enforce their authority on every single star system and planet. Space was too big. If people truly wanted to avoid the Big Two's enforcers, they could simply travel to an out-of-the-way star system that was devoid of any permanent human occupation and play with Auto Heretics all of the time!

In fact, most people did not really bother to uproot their entire lives so that they could travel to a star system where the mechers and the fleeters were unlikely to show up one day.

They just stayed on their home planets and piloted their Auto Heretics in places such as underground mech arenas, remote lands and many other forms of private property. As long as the Big Two, the Guardians of Peace and any local authorities that cooperated with them did not hold much sway on a planet, then the locals were pretty much free to purchase and pilot their Auto Heretics without much fear of getting punished!

Even though most people still believed in the power of the MTA and CFA, they no longer respected them as much as before!
