Ves gazed at the badges placed on the chests of all of the attendants.
Most of them possessed a good collection of dots. They all had dark green dots without exception, and many of them had dark blue dots as well.
This meant that many of these scientists were well-versed in both biotechnology and phasewater theory. They had to be in order to be recognized as an authority in the study of phase lords.
Yet for all of their considerable knowledge and expertise, few of them possessed the purple dot that denoted that they were versed in 'traditional psionic power manipulation'!
This was probably the root cause why all of these biotech researchers had failed to find the right direction after so many years of study. They wasted billions of MTA credits on failed research projects that only produced marginal results at best, all because they worked on a set of assumptions that they never properly questioned!
