Lord of the Sky City

“Father, what do you think about this?”

In his office at Sigma Corporation, Tom was discussing with his daughter Denise the new technology announced by Aniye and others.

The sudden emergence of this new technology caught both of them off guard, as the announcement was incredibly abrupt. From the emergence of rumors to the actual press conference, it took merely a month, leaving everyone unprepared, including Denise and Tom.

However, unlike others, the new technology researched by Aniye and his team had a crucial connection to Denise, Tom, and even Sigma Corporation.

If this new technology was just ordinary, its impact might not be significant. Despite its current popularity, the excitement would likely fade soon. However, if the technology represented a trans-era research, the scenario would be utterly different.

If the new technology that Aniye and his team had researched truly had trans-era significance, it could potentially change the entire landscape of the Armor Domain. As one of the giants in the Armor Domain, Sigma Corporation couldn’t afford to ignore this.

That’s why Denise and Tom were treating this matter with such caution. What made them feel even more pressed was that, based on Rocky’s performance in the competition, this technology not only already had practicality, but also displayed all the signs of being trans-era!

This wasn’t mere speculation, but the result of thorough analysis.

Once Rocky’s competition was over, Denise immediately had their R&D team analyze the competition, and the conclusion they reached was that the Magic Energy Technology mounted on the White Demon Armor was indeed unprecedented!

It’s like laymen watch the excitement while the experts see the way through. Just like when Aniye and others first noticed the Magic Conduction System on the Holy Angel Armor, when Sigma Corporation’s R&D team repeatedly studied Rocky’s competition videos, they too pinpointed what was critical — while they didn’t find any runes, they noticed that the Magic Energy System of the White Demon Armor was extraordinarily unusual, possibly of a trans-era nature!

Thus, Denise and Tom were confronted with a dilemma about how to deal with this new technology.

Sigma Corporation is a giant in the Armor Domain. Whenever there’s new technology related to Armor, they immediately respond, either by acquiring it to use in their own armor development; or by immediately starting reverse research to decode and develop it on their own. In short, they must react immediately, or else they let others gain the upper hand.

So, for this matter, Denise and Tom not only valued it highly but also had discussed it many times.

Today, the preliminary research report on the White Demon Armor was ready, and the two had to make a decision.

“Father, these are the development department’s preliminary evaluations of the White Demon Armor. What do you think?”

“A bunch of crap.” Tom said dismissively as he tossed the report aside, “What could these guys possibly figure out? The company spent five years and gave them unlimited investment, and what have they accomplished?”

“A small City Lord in Sky City conjured up a trans-era technology within a year, and these guys have the audacity to write a report? Do they even understand it?”

Due to multiple setbacks in the development of the 6th Generation Armor by the company’s R&D team, Tom had already lost confidence in this team, especially now, learning that Aniye among four in a small Sky City, had developed a new technology with trans-era potential, which was already likely viable for actual combat, his dissatisfaction with his own team intensified.

Thus, for the research report Denise submitted to him, Tom didn’t even look at it before tossing it aside, then said, “Make contact, immediately start making contact, strive to reach an agreement with them to jointly develop this technology.”

In a single sentence, Tom made his intentions clear, that they must secure this new technology, a technology that could potentially break through the existing limits of Magic Energy, not just in the Armor Domain but in any field it would be crucial, and anyone realizing this would not miss this opportunity. Therefore, Sigma Corporation must act immediately and not lose this advantage.

“Okay.”

Upon hearing Tom’s words, Denise nodded, “I will immediately send someone to contact Aniye.”

“Not Aniye, you need to talk to Rocky.”

Looking at his daughter, Tom sighed helplessly, while Denise was startled by his words.

Clearly, Denise did not understand Tom’s intention, as in her view, Rocky was just a small City Lord of Sky City who had been pushed into the limelight solely because he funded Aniye and others’ research. However, many viewed this funding as fragile and even trivial.

In the eyes of many, as long as the money was sufficient, Rocky would surely withdraw from the research, since such a high-level study wasn’t something a small City Lord could participate in, making many believe that the real decision-makers on who qualified to participate in the research were not Rocky, but Aniye and his team. They just have to nod, what could Rocky do?
