Chapter 292: Chapter 282: The Alliance’s Attention_2

“Master Aniye, is this the new generation Armor?”

In the VIP box, Aniye was watching Rocky’s match with a group of people. At first, everyone was relatively restrained, but when Rocky raised the Mana of the White Demon Armor to ten thousand points and fought Xia Nai to a standstill, someone finally couldn’t restrain themselves anymore.

“This White Demon Armor was merely based on the Fourth Generation Armor and was casually designed by Hammerfire, so it doesn’t count as a new generation Armor. However, this Armor is indeed equipped with the new technology we are currently developing.”

Wearing a smile, Aniye said this lightly; however, despite his casual tone, his words thrilled everyone who heard him!

What did that mean?

Did it mean that the Armor itself wasn’t the point, but the focus was on the new technology it was equipped with!?

But what kind of technology could be so powerful that it allowed an Armor, designed based on the Fourth Generation, to have a magic energy value of ten thousand?

If this so-called new technology had been mentioned by someone else, no one would believe it, some might even scoff at it, but these words came from Aniye, and that made a world of difference.

Given Aniye’s status and abilities, he would never speak without foundation. Moreover, everyone had already heard rumors about the new technology Aniye mentioned, knowing it wasn’t something he developed on his own but something he, along with Orton, Hammerfire, and Pelaya, had worked on, which further increased the credibility of everything Aniye said.

Because of this, when Aniye finished speaking, the people present even felt a chill down their spines because if this technology could make a Fourth Generation Armor break through the ten thousand magic energy value, what would happen if it were applied to a Fifth Generation Armor… it would be incredible!

“Master Aniye, is this new technology… related to Mana?”

So even though they knew asking wouldn’t yield any results and might even invite displeasure, someone still couldn’t help but ask, driven by overwhelming curiosity and interest in this new technology!

The outcome was as expected; Aniye just smiled without saying a word but instead addressed someone beside him:

“His Excellency Farey, what do you think of this new technology?”

The person Aniye addressed, Farey, appeared to be in his fifties or sixties, and he was the representative sent by the Sky Alliance, also a member of the Elders Council of the Sky Alliance.

As a premier force in the skies, the Sky Alliance doesn’t belong to any one person, with its management and operations entirely overseen by the Elders Council. Naturally, the Alliance placed great importance on the new generation Armor released by the Sigma Corporation, sending Farey, a member of the Elders Council, directly.

In fact, Farey wasn’t the only person from the Sky Alliance in this VIP box; everyone here belonged to the Sky Alliance, but among these people, Farey had the highest status and position.

“Stunning, utterly stunning.”

Called out by Aniye, Farey nodded his head noncommittally.

This wasn’t just politeness but his most genuine thought and feeling.

The prowess displayed by the White Demon Armor might not match the Holy Angel Armor, but remember, the level of the Holy Angel Armor was Fifth and a Half Generation. Its impressive performance was expected. However, the White Demon Armor was different. In the eyes of Farey and the others, the White Demon Armor was merely Fourth Generation Armor, yet its performance was so remarkable that it could contend on equal terms with the very top Fifth Generation Special Armor. This impact was even greater than what the Holy Angel brought, truly deserving of the word “stunning.”

Upon hearing such an assessment from Farey, Aniye just smiled, then casually shifted the conversation, “For this new technology, City Lord Rocky has invested quite a lot.”

“Rocky…?”

After Aniye finished speaking, Farey and the others were momentarily stunned before they realized who Rocky was and turned to look at the arena.

No wonder, as a member of the Elders Council of the Sky Alliance, Farey was indeed a significant figure, and such a figure wouldn’t know who Rocky was. It took them a good while to remember him.

But although it took them a while to recall who Rocky was, it didn’t prevent them from reacting very quickly, as Farey soon added:

“Master Aniye, the Sky Alliance is very willing to support such cross-era research…”

As one of the Elders of the Sky Alliance, Farey’s thinking was exceptionally sharp. When Aniye mentioned Rocky, especially his investment in research, Farey immediately understood what he meant and quickly expressed his desire to provide financial support.

But did he really understand Aniye’s meaning?

Obviously not, for he hadn’t finished speaking when Aniye interrupted him and then smiled:

“Speaking of which, City Lord Rocky and the Sky Alliance have some history.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Farey clearly didn’t catch on and immediately asked, “Master, what do you mean…?”

“Originally, it was City Lord Rocky who picked up Lord Wilton and escorted him back to the Alliance. If you put it that way, he still owes you a favor, and I remember Rocky told me that in gratitude, Wilton promised he would ensure his entry into the Alliance.”

Aniye spoke slowly and looked at Farey with a smile, asking,

“Lord Farey, have you heard about this matter?”

“This…”

With this question, Farey was completely caught off guard!

As one of the Elders of the Sky Alliance, it wasn’t his responsibility to oversee which Sky City joined the Alliance; this was handled by subordinates, so he had never heard of this matter.

However, Farey reacted quickly and immediately said, “Since His Excellency the Holy Knight promised, there will certainly be no mistakes, and I believe It won’t be long…”

“I hope so.”

Just like before, before Farey could finish his sentence, Aniye interrupted him again, but this time, he did not wear a smile on his face!

Afterward, Aniye turned and left the VIP box…

Watching his stern departure, everyone in the box exchanged glances, wondering, ‘Wasn’t everything going well just now? Why did the old man suddenly leave so abruptly?’

“Get to the bottom of this!”

While everyone was confused and unsure of the situation, Farey suddenly shouted at the others!

“Send someone to notify the Alliance immediately and thoroughly investigate the matter between Rocky and Wilton!”

Staring intensely at the people in the box, Farey roared furiously.

Others might not know why Aniye left, but he did.

Clearly, every sentence Aniye had said was a reminder to Farey, reminding him that Rocky should have joined the Sky Alliance, but you haven’t done it yet.

But based on Farey’s understanding of Wilton, if he really had been saved by Rocky, he would certainly have followed through, and thus Rocky should have already joined the Sky Alliance. And if Rocky had already joined the Sky Alliance, wouldn’t Aniye’s new technology research be theirs?

However, the current situation didn’t reflect this; for some reason, Rocky had not joined the Alliance, yet with his funding, Aniye and others had managed to develop the new technology!

With this development, the situation had changed because Rocky would instantly become highly sought after–not just by the Sky Alliance but also by the other two major alliances who would clamor for his allegiance. Smaller alliances, equally strong, would also scramble to have him join; if Rocky actually joined another alliance, the loss for the Sky Alliance would be tremendous–it would be like letting a cooked duck fly away!

Therefore, Farey was so enraged, and immediately sent people to the Alliance to thoroughly investigate the matter!
