Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 221 Masters Gather!

in order to support the rune armor project, rocky had to bring in aileen and make some adjustments to the original arrangements.as one of rocky's confidantes, aileen was already aware of the existence of runes, so rocky relayed orton's plan to her directly. although aileen might not be a re

"pelaya, it's been a long time."

bringing rocky to the person, orton tried to show a smile that was not too awkward.

"indeed, how come you seem to be getting older?"

no sooner had he finished speaking than pelaya, who had just come down from the ship, raised an eyebrow at him and then spoke.

as an expert in the mana framework field, don't let pelaya's real age fool you; she may look to be in her forties, possibly due to some special method, so when she raised her brow at orton, she still had the charm of her youth, and orton's face instantly reddened.

this scene left rocky stunned; he had never seen orton blush like that before.

"come on, tell me what you've summoned me here for this time, acting all mysterious."

pelaya immediately asked with a laugh, having made orton's face turn red with just a flick of her curved eyebrows.

"let's talk about it at the research institute; i have something important to show you."

before this, although hammerfire and aniye had arrived much earlier, orton had only settled them in at rocky's city lord's mansion and hadn't said much to them, clearly waiting for everyone to arrive before explaining in detail.

now that pelaya had arrived, all the old friends orton had gathered were finally assembled. although counting orton himself there were only four people, each one of them was a master in their own domain, each capable of leading an entire project on their own. yet, now, they had been convened together!

honestly, if this news were to leak out, one might not dare to say much else, but at the very least, it would cause a sensation in the academic world, because any project that required the participation of so many masters was without exception one of the world's most cutting-edge projects!

and now that everyone had arrived, they took a carriage from the skyport, not going to the city lord's mansion but directly to orton's research institute.

"orton, what exactly are you up to? it's been so many days, and you haven't said anything."

upon arriving at the research institute and going to orton's lab together, hammerfire complained dissatisfiedly. he had been the first to arrive in thunderhawk city, but it had almost been a week, and orton still hadn't said anything to him. this secretive behavior didn't sit well with the straightforward dwarf.

not just hammerfire, even aniye and the newly arrived pelaya were also very curious, as their relationship with orton was surely closer, yet they too were unaware of why orton had summoned them.

however, faced with hammerfire's questioning and the curiosity of aniye and pelaya, orton merely smiled slightly, offering no explanation or further words, only effortlessly drawing a mana rune in front of everyone with his magic power!

"this...!"

the moment the mana rune was drawn, aniye stood up from his seat, followed by both pelaya and hammerfire doing the same.

"this, what kind of rune is this! it can actually store magic energy!"

ps: the cross-era development of rune armor is about to begin, but not only does it need the support of gold coins, it also needs your recommendation support! so please, recommend it!
