Chapter 217: Chapter 223: New Style Armor!
“Your idea… it’s great!”
After saying that, Aniye walked right over to the small blackboard in the re
Being rather short, Hammerfire had to stand on a chair to take part in the discussion, so at this moment, he was shaking his head and speaking while standing on a chair.
“Why isn’t it feasible?”
Frowning, Orton’s eyes widened in apparent dissatisfaction with Hammerfire’s rejection, and he went on to say, “The goal of the Rune Armor plan is a technological breakthrough! As long as we can research the technology to apply runes to Armor, the plan will be a success. Why can’t we experiment on the old Armor?”
The disagreement among them stemmed from Orton’s idea. According to his plan, once the research entered the practical operations stage, they would apply the runes directly to the four sets of Armor Rocky had captured for experimentation—time-saving and efficient. Wasn’t that great?
But Hammerfire rejected this approach!
“It’s impossible!”
Facing Orton’s challenges, Hammerfire blew his beard, glared, and started to shout, “You’ve never made Armor; you don’t understand the structure of the old Armor. The old Armor was driven by Magic Stones from the outset, even from the design phase – the concept was to be centered around the Magic Stone. It’s not as simple as you think; you can’t just remove the Magic Stone and reuse the rest easily.”
“Once the Magic Stone is removed from the old Armor, it essentially becomes no better than a heap of scrap metal. The technology contained in the Armor cannot be used again; it’s entirely unsuitable for experiments. If we follow your approach for the research, even if we succeed, our end product won’t be Rune Armor but merely rune equipment!”
“`
“Nonsense! I’ve upgraded Magic Cannons with runes before, and it was a success. Why can’t I modify Armor the same way?”
“Are the technologies contained in Magic Cannons and Void Magic Armor the same? Are they on the same level technically?”
“Well, I’ve also used runes to upgrade Armor before, and this kid’s Blood Pattern Mark II is my work, and it functions just fine!”
“All you did was use runes to bolster the magic energy value; the Armor itself still relies on Magic Stones to operate. This is not at all the same as using runes to directly output mana to power Armor!”
With his eyes wide, Hammerfire then turned to Pelaya, “Pelaya, you’re the expert in this field, tell this old fool Orton whether I’m right or not!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s gaze turned towards Pelaya, who was an expert in the mana framework field and the most knowledgeable in this area.
Confronted with everyone’s gaze, Pelaya helplessly nodded, then looked at Orton, “Hammerfire is correct. If you take off the Magic Stones from the old-fashioned Armor, then it becomes nothing more than ordinary Armor. The technology contained within cannot be directly applied to runes.”
After Pelaya’s words, Orton’s complexion turned somewhat unsightly because clearly, his previous ideas had been too simplistic.
The research they were set to undertake wasn’t about rune enhancement of Armor, but about replacing Magic Stones with runes to make them the core of the Armor’s operation. This concept was fundamentally different from Orton’s previous enhancements.
After all, the old-fashioned Armor was designed from the very beginning, even at the early stages of design, around the Magic Stones as the core. The technology within might be adaptable to runes after some improvements, but it wasn’t as simple as just swapping the Magic Stones for runes and expecting it to work; the issues involved were quite complex.
Thus all of Orton’s previous ideas had fallen through…
“What do you suggest we do then?”
Feeling helpless, Orton had no choice but to ask.
“Isn’t it obvious? We need to design a set of New Armor! Start with runes as the core right from the design phase, employ brand new technology, brand new concepts, and instantly outclass the current generation 5 Armor!”
When it came to this matter, Hammerfire naturally had the most authority to speak. He didn’t even need to think before providing an answer—they needed to design a completely new concept of Void Magic Armor with runes at the core!
“Um…”
Upon hearing Hammerfire’s answer, Orton hummed thoughtfully, then looked towards Rocky.
As the four were engaged in a heated discussion, Rocky had been quietly listening in as a bystander. Although he didn’t understand most of it, he felt an inexplicable sense of awe and had listened so intently that he was practically enthralled.
Now, caught by Orton’s gaze, he snapped back to reality, then cautiously asked Hammerfire, “Master Hammerfire, how much would it cost to develop a New Armor?”
“Hmm… let me think…”
Upon being asked how much it would cost to design new Armor, Hammerfire actually took the question seriously and thought for a while before giving an answer, “Fifty million Gold Coins should be enough to produce a set of Prototype Armor.”
