Records were recalled to replay the speech by Omni. The Omnilium he was given was the source of power here, driven by desires and wishes. Did that mean some kind of mystical force or something that required actual imagination? Vitruvius couldn't define the line between the two given that his imagination was essentially a program that allowed him curiosity and wild speculation. His concern at the moment would be if the Omnilium Orb would actually react to his potential ideas. What were the differences between himself and the other machine standing across from him? Did she have something special that allowed her true creativity? Or was it as simple as creating blue prints of plans and letting the Orb do the rest?
If that were the case then what could he possibly plan out that would be of benefit in this situation? His mind raced through all the greatest inventions of his world. Every single one had some kind of military application and given his predicament, having his body hiding a highly volatile weapon, he determined it was best to avoid anything of that nature. That narrowed his search down to beneficial inventions. Shielding his collaborator would be a good plan if anything were to endanger her systems or ship. He would much rather allow himself to be used to protect others than to do harm. Given that he could defend himself as well as weed out potential threats that would bring death to the masses, he still found himself wanting the most non-lethal or least violent option.
His search concluded. He drew inspiration from one vastly uncredited inventor who sought to create free energy for the world. What good was he as a Renaissance Robot if he couldn't create things on his own?
Nikola Tesla harnessed alternating electrical currents, allowing energy to flow freely between grounded conductors. It could also wirelessly transmit its energy, but these are things Tesla couldn't finalize. Building off the principles, Vitruvius posited that if he played a conductor for electrical current, then he could potentially ground an ally and create a free flowing shield of energy around both of them. He didn't know how strong the shield would be until he tested it, but all simulations showed it would be enough to keep either of them from suffering any severe injuries.
Would a basic blue print such as that work with his Omnilium Orb? Or was he the exception given that he wasn't organic? Only one way to find out now.

The sound of metal, I want to be you. I should learn to be a man...like you.
