Orton, though dissatisfied with his own improvents, did not necessarily an that his rune enhancents were inadequate, but rather, this stemd from his exceedingly high standards for himself.
In fact, even discounting runes, his breakthroughs in the field of magic energy alone could be regarded as so of the finest in contemporary tis!
As Orton himself said, the essence of mana is magic power, and since magic power is elental, it stands to reason that mana should possess elents, too. However, this is only a theoretical possibility, and no one has been able to realize it in practical application.
Logically, the conversion of such elental properties shouldn't be so difficult, and indeed, it isn't. The real technical challenge lies not in the conversion of attributes, but in the carrier—naly, the magic stone.
It's common knowledge that mana must be stored within magic stones, but how to store elental mana within magic stones, or make the mana stored within the stones exhibit elents when used, that is the true challenge!
Research in this area has been ongoing, and any breakthrough would undoubtedly have a profound impact on all things related to mana, especially on the Void Magic Armor which is closely associated with mana. There were even rumors that the primary focus of the 6th Generation Void Magic Armor was elental.
The enhancents Orton had made to runes were precisely in this area.
Rocky did not believe it was a coincidence. As a master in the field of mana, Orton must have been aware of the current research directions in the domain of magic energy, which was why he exerted effort in this area, and more importantly, he had seen so initial success!
Perhaps, as he himself had said, the elental runes still possessed various flaws, and lacked true practicality, but this did not an his research was anything short of top-notch.
It was no exaggeration to say that, should Orton publicize his approach to crafting elental runes—even without ntioning runes in detail—it would be enough to cause a sensation across the entire field of magic energy!
In light of this, Rocky naturally wanted to encourage him.
"Teacher, you mustn't lose heart. Elental runes are still in the early stages of experintation, and we're exploring all aspects. It's normal to encounter so flaws, but once we gain a deeper understanding, we can surely find ways to resolve these issues and shortcomings."
"Hmph, you little brat, you've even learned to flatter now."
Hearing this, Orton gave Rocky a sidelong glance, his lips pursed, but it was clear he was quite happy to listen, so he subsequently asked, "Speak up, you little brat, what are you here for? Did you bring the 4th Generation Armor?"
"Yes, yes, more or less."
"What! Where is it, give it to !"
As soon as he heard Rocky ntion bringing the 4th Generation Armor, Orton imdiately beca excited, seeming almost ready to pounce like a predator.
"This... Teacher, just hear out..."
Seeing the eagerness in Orton's eyes as if he were about to pounce, Rocky quickly gestured with his hands to stop him, then shared the collaboration he and Karina had undertaken.
"Why are you telling this? I don't have ti to design that shoddy equipnt for you!"
After Rocky excitedly shared his upcoming plans with Orton, Orton just looked at him askance for a long while before indifferently responding.
Rocky intended for him to work together on crafting a set of rune equipnt for the Guard Corps, as their effectiveness had been fully proven during the mission at Backhill Village. Thus, Rocky planned to equip the entire Guard Corps with rune equipnt!
Their target might have been the Air Pirate Group this ti, not demons, but the level of danger was by no ans lower than during the mission at Backhill Village—in fact, it could be even more dangerous!
Because the stronghold of the Air Pirate Group was on land, it was enough to prove that their strength must not be underestimated. In today's age, anyone who can survive on the demon-infested land is not to be trifled with. It's just like the soldiers from Backhill Village, each of them is formidable.
The fact that the Air Pirate Group could establish a stronghold on the land is testant enough to their strength.
In such circumstances, rune equipnt beca crucial for Rocky, and its importance might even affect whether he could take down the stronghold of the Air Pirate Group!
Therefore, facing an Orton who seed unconcerned, Rocky had no choice but to explain:
"Teacher, if this job is done right, I'll have money! And once I have money, can't I buy you the 4th Generation Armor? So, of course this matter concerns you!"
"Bullshit, you have to buy the 4th Generation Armor whether you have money or not!"
"......"
Such an unreasonable response nearly left Rocky gasping for breath, but it was in line with Orton's character, so Rocky had no choice but to cajole him persistently, even beginning to deceive and coax him by all ans.
"Teacher! Think about it, didn't you just develop the Elental Rune? Now's the chance! You can absolutely take advantage of the opportunity of making rune equipnt to test out the practicality of the Elental Rune!"
"Test? I need to test to know whether these runes are useful or not?"
Orton gave Rocky a disdainful glance and snorted coldly, appearing extrely arrogant.
That's normal since even though the idea of Elental Runes was ntioned in Winsel's notes, it was Orton who actually turned the concept into reality, so he really didn't need an experint to verify the quality of Elental Runes.
However, after this, Orton still said impatiently, "Alright, enough bothering . It's just a few hundred pieces of equipnt. Let's start now, the sooner it's done, the sooner I'll have peace!"
After saying this, he didn't wait for Rocky to express his joy and imdiately led him to another research lab.
During his last visit to Eternal City, Rocky had actually bought a large number of 'counterfeit' Magic Energy Equipnt, intending to equip the entire Guard Corps with rune equipnt, but it had been delayed due to being too busy.
Now, all these pieces were stored in the Rune Research Institute, available for Orton's experintation at any ti. When Orton led Rocky into another research lab, Rocky saw the hundreds of pieces of equipnt piled up inside.
"These dozens of pieces of equipnt have already been enhanced by with runes. When the ti cos, you can just take them away," said Orton nonchalantly, pointing at a pile of equipnt stacked in the corner after leading Rocky into the lab filled with equipnt.
These were casually enhanced by him recently, a good dozen in number, all of high quality, yet tossed aside in the corner as if they were junk.
Seeing these pieces, Rocky imdiately nodded in agreent. They were all valuable items, certainly stronger than the rune equipnt he had made, so he quickly began moving the gear out of the lab one by one.
Having no other choice, as Orton's behavior was too rough, who knew what racket he might make while inscribing runes on the equipnt. To prevent these finished products from being destroyed, Rocky had to place them in a safe spot.
Afterward, he and Orton, like a father-and-son duo, dove into the pile of equipnt and began producing rune equipnt for the Guard Corps.
