Lord of the Sky City-Chapter 761 - 723 Excitement
Chapter 761: Chapter 723 Excitement
“What do you have in mind? Let’s hear it.”
“Teacher, this Armor naturally has to be centered around Runes. Nowadays, Rune Technology is very mature, and that part won’t pose a problem for me. What really gives me pause is the Elemental Technology.”
When Rocky discussed the specific details of the New Armor with Pelaya, that’s what he said.
The main purpose of his visit to Pelaya was precisely about Elemental Technology. He was by no means an expert in this area, only having a basic understanding. Pelaya, on the other hand, was different. As a master of Magic Conduction Technology and playing a vital role in the research of Rune elementalization, the transformation of ordinary Mana into Elemental Magic Energy involved numerous technical challenges related to Magic Conduction, most of which were overcome by Pelaya herself. Therefore, in the cutting-edge field of Rune elementalization, Pelaya had considerable authority.
Indeed, it was just so, because after Rocky had made his intentions clear, Pelaya only thought for a moment before responding:
“Given our current mastery of Elemental Technology, the safest method would be to apply it to weaponry. Although Elemental Technology can also have a huge impact in the defensive domain and can be utilized in other areas, further research by Senior Aniye is still in progress and hasn’t quite matured. Therefore, aside from the White Demon Armor, I personally do not recommend using these technologies, especially in Mass-Produced Armor.”
The saying “An expert shows their skill with their first move” perfectly suited Pelaya at this moment. Pelaya had conducted the analysis for him without needing Rocky to go into details—and of course, this was hardly surprising. After all, she had been involved in the development of Elemental Technology and knew better than anyone the development stage of Elemental Technology, which technologies could be practically applied, and which could not.

After Pelaya finished speaking, Rocky frowned in thought and then said, “Teacher, I was thinking the same thing. Now that Rune Technology has become the most advanced Technology, we really don’t need to use immature technologies on Armor. Hence, the core technology of the New Armor will still be Rune Technology, and as for Elemental Technology, it could be focused on weaponry.”
“My current thought is that the New Armor must be equipped with at least a Magic Energy Cannon, a Shoulder Beam Gun, and a magic energy machine gun, but these are all conventional weapons. The focus should be on incorporating some new weapons that apply Elemental Technology.”
“Actually, existing weapons can also undergo elemental conversion, and this technology is ready to be applied.”
“No, Teacher, although current weapons can possess elements through conversion technology, their power and utility can’t match weapons that are designed with Elemental Technology as the baseline. I still believe we should design a weapon that’s fundamentally based on Elemental Technology.”
“You’re saying you already have some ideas?”
Seeing Rocky’s insistence, Pelaya looked at him with a smile. She had witnessed such determination from him before, during the design of the Tank Armor, and when working on the magic energy machine gun, he had shown the same persistence. Understanding this, Pelaya realized that Rocky must have come prepared.
Rocky did not hide this and simply said with a smile, “Not exactly ideas, just a few thoughts.”
“Let’s hear them.”
“Well, I want to create a…”
After that, Rocky and Pelaya delved into a detailed discussion of the New Armor’s concept.
Professionally speaking, Pelaya’s specialty was actually Magic Energy Conduction, and she wasn’t an expert in Armor design. However, having been involved in the entire development of the White Demon Armor, working closely with Hammerfire for so long, and given that Armor design inherently cannot do without the domain of Magic Energy Conduction, she was more than familiar with Armor design and, in fact, quite adept at it. Some of her insights could indeed help Rocky.
In such a manner, Rocky spent the following days in discussion with Pelaya. On the first day, he went to see Pelaya empty-handed, as his ideas for the New Armor were still just concepts. But after the first day’s discussion, he went back to the City Lord’s Mansion and put all his thoughts about the New Armor down on paper. Later on, he gradually sketched out the initial design draft of the New Armor, constantly making revisions and improvements during discussions with Pelaya.
Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and within two weeks, Rocky and Pelaya had essentially determined all the specifications of the New Armor. After that, Rocky called for He Nan and asked him to bring five Beastman Warriors to the research institute.
“Lord Rocky, what is this…?”
He Nan had not only never been to the research institute but hadn’t even heard of it. So, when he arrived and saw Rocky waiting in the courtyard, especially with all the equipment around him, He Nan and his accompanying Beastman Warriors were puzzled and entirely unclear about what Rocky was planning to do.
“Chief He Nan, don’t be afraid. I just want to run some tests on you.”
Although the Fireteng Tribe had now come under Rocky’s command, he hadn’t disbanded or scattered the tribe. Instead, he preserved the tribe’s integrity, which significantly increased the Beastmen’s favorable opinion of him. And for this reason, though He Nan addressed him as City Lord just like everyone else, Rocky still referred to him as Chief when they met.
“Tests?”
“Correct. I plan to make New Armor, specifically designed for Beastmen.”
“For, for us?”
Hearing Rocky’s words, He Nan was stunned. He had not expected Rocky to call him for this reason.
It had been almost a month since the Fireteng Tribe had joined Thunderhawk City. Although it wasn’t a long time, He Nan had interacted with Monte and others quite a bit during the month, gaining some understanding of Rocky, knowing that he was not only the City Lord but also well-versed in academia and capable of leading the design of Armor.
For He Nan, this was utterly incredible because, in his eyes, the Void Magic Armor was definitively the most powerful weapon in the world. Before joining Thunderhawk City, only the Chief of their tribe was eligible to wear Void Magic Armor. Thus, knowing that Rocky not only had his own Void Magic Corps but also had the ability to design Armor himself, He Nan was thoroughly impressed.
Now, learning that Rocky was actually designing New Armor for them, he was completely astonished and then incredibly excited—very excited!
