Chapter 312 Tank Type 1

    Rocky''s ideas had quite a surprise for Orton and the rest.


    Firstly, they had not expected Rocky to have such a unique perspective on Armor design. His insights might not be considered profound, but they were indeedpletely different from the usual train of thought.


    Secondly, everything Rocky said was very inspiring to Orton and the others. For instance, he believed that the current approach to Land Combat Armor design was too conservative, or rather, too rigid. On reflection, it seemed he might be onto something.


    The Land Combat Armor was, after all, designed for groundbat. If its sole purpose wasnd warfare, then the design philosophy should, and could, be different from that of regr Void Magic Armor. Yet, all models of Land Combat Armor had failed to achieve this distinction.@@novelbin@@


    Todays''s Land Combat Armor still followed the same design concepts as regr Armor, with the only differences being additional armor and more weapons. This resulted in a bulky hybrid that could neither move freely and flexibly in air andnd like regr Armor, nor offer truebat effectiveness onnd, which exined why it had not be widespread over the years.


    On this matter, Rocky''s words were like a revtion to Orton and the others, immediately opening up new avenues of thought.


    Although they had opened up to new ideas, they could also see that since Rocky had made such unique observations, he must have his own ideas about what Land Combat Armor should be.


    Afterward, Hammerfire and Aniye asked him in session.


    And when they did, Rocky indeed nodded his head, for he did have a vision for what a new type of Armor should be like!


    However, now facing a group of masters, each an authority in their field, he inevitably felt a bit nervous and restrained. After pondering for a while, he finally spoke:


    "I think, since it''s Special Armor forndbat, we might as well just remove the flight systems."


    "What?"


    "Can you speak up, I didn''t quite hear you?"


    As Rocky finished his statement, Orton and the others'' eyes widened in session, not from shock but disbelief!


    Indeed, Rocky''s idea was too shocking and inconceivable for the people of this world, because arge part of what made Void Magic Armor the strongest personal weapon was its ability to fly. Without a flight capability, could it still be called Void Magic Armor at all?!


    After Rocky spoke, Orton and the others were bbergasted, finding it hard toprehend his thinking.


    Rocky had anticipated their reaction. It was understandable, as since the inception of Void Magic Armor, it was equipped with the ability to fly, and it could even be said that the driving force behind the development of Void Magic Armor was to enable aerial flight andbat. Thus, the belief that Void Magic Armor must have flight capabilities had be an entrenched way of thinking, a traditional notion that Rocky''s ideas were now challenging.


    But neither ingrained thought processes nor traditional notions were necessarily correct.

    Therefore, facing Orton and the others'' misunderstanding, Rocky didn''t bother to exin further, as it wasn''t necessary. He simply counter-asked:


    "Is a flight system really essential for Land Combat Armor?"


    Who were those present, after all? The collective intelligence of Orton''s group was nearly astronomical, so there was no need for lengthy exnations. A simple question was enough to make them understand what Rocky was getting at.


    In fact, if you think about it, is a flight system really necessary for Land Combat Armor?


    This was like the current Land Combat Armor which retained flight capabilities but could neither fly high, far, nor fast. And for any Void Magic Armor, the flight system was the most mana-consuming. So, the current Land Combat Armor was effectively wasting a vast amount of mana without providing any real practical use.


    Moreover, since it''s Special Armor fornd warfare, designed to engagend targets, why would it need the ability to fly? If the aim of flight was to enhance maneuverability, then other methods such as gliding and jumping could also achieve the same effect by improving these capabilities in the Armor!


    Hence, Rocky believed that if designed to his specifications, the Land Combat Armor should first eliminate the flight system. This change alone would save a significant amount of mana that could be used to enhance other aspects of the Armor.


    "Keep going..."


    After his question, Orton and the others fell into deep thought, their minds rapidly turning over countless possibilities. Therefore, they remained silent until, after a while, Aniye gestured impatiently for Rocky to continue.


    Seeing that Orton and the rest had recollected their thoughts, Rocky went on to say:


    "In addition to removing the flight system, I also want to change the way the Land Combat Armor moves. I''d keep the humanoid upper body, but the lower half would be redesigned with a chassis design."


    "A chassis? Like a carriage, using wheels to move?"


    Upon hearing Rocky''s suggestion, Hammerfire frowned and asked.
