Chapter 648 Instant array
*...clap*
*Clap * *clap* *clap*
All the attendees, including Martial Emperors, officials, and even the researchers seemed as if someone had hit them on the head at this moment, just looked towards the field hospital with open mouths and applauded unconsciously, trying to comprehend the results of this hospital in a real war. They applauded only because they heard a voice telling them to applaud.
Robin wasn't as absent-minded as they were, but the shock on his face was even greater
He raised both his hands placed them on the back of his head and muttered slowly, "…Zara, whose idea was this?"
"Hehe, did you like the field hospital? Using the banners to create an instant array was my idea, but everyone in the array group worked hard to come up with this final result!" Zara declared with joy and pride before moving quickly to stand towards her father again and hold his arm.
Robin remained speechless for a few seconds as he looked into his daughter's eyes, "It was you? You are the one who came up with the idea for a way to create an instant portable array?"
"Dad!!" Zara hit her foot on the ground, "Have you forgotten that I am the first Rune Master after you? I learned how to work on Runes from you personally and I was also the first teacher in Jura City Rune Academy. If I can't do something to help, then won't teaching me to be a waste?"
Robin continued to look at her in disbelief, "Girl... Do you even realize what you have created?!"
"Naturally!" Zara responded quickly and excitedly, but after looking at the faces of the audience for a long time, she continued hesitantly, "...I think."
"...Sigh~ Do you know how many times it crossed my mind to devote some time to researching and developing arrays? Because I knew how powerful arrays could be I wanted a way to make them easy to build and quick to act, but I never found the time. I also did not ask the R&D team to look into the matter because I know how difficult it is!" Robin took a few steps forward, his eyes not moving away from the field hospital for a moment, "Mobile Instant Arrays... You have created something that will change the course of future wars, no, it will change the shape of the entire Empire!!"
"Really?" Zara tilted her head to the side. Although she was happy with her father's reaction, she still couldn't see what he was seeing
"Your Highness, you are looking at the matter from the wrong point of view. You see it as a field hospital, but His Excellency sees it as the seed of a path that will branch into much more." Old Gu couldn't restrain himself and spoke up, "This hospital does not rely on the power level of the users or even the law they cultivate. Rather, it only relies on the runes it carries and the energy pearls as a source of power. This means that if we replace these life runes with fire runes, we can instantly create an array that shoots fireballs on enemies in a specific area to reduce the pressure on our fighters, or another array that constantly sends icy winds to prevent enemies from crossing a certain line... These are just examples, but their applications in battles are countless!"
"We can take the Sky Shield Array that His Excellency designed, miniaturize it, and paint a miniature version of it on the banners, so our field research teams will have a safe haven if beasts attack them!" A researcher from the Ink development team shouted excitedly
A former officer took out a blue tablet from his pocket, "Defense arrays... I now came up with an idea for a defensive array that uses solid ice walls. As long as we have the law tablets, we have an infinite number of ideas!!"
"We can create an array that intertwines the path of the wind with the path of the soul so that the array creates an absolute death ground for whoever enters it!!"
Zara looked around with raised eyebrows and an open mouth. She definitely did not think about the matter from this perspective. From her point of view, she was looking for a way to contribute to reducing deaths and lightening the burden on the life forces, because she had greatly experienced the extent of the difficulties they faced, for this reason, she tried several groups until they settled in with the arrays group and decided to achieve a good result with them, but within one minute she heard more than twenty purely military applications of her idea!
As for the arrays group, they were happily high-fiving each other. From the reactions, it was clear that their work would bring them many benefits and that the arrays group would witness a great transformation!
Old Gu took a few steps to stand next to Robin and crossed his arms in front of his chest, "Unfortunately, there are some obvious problems with the instant array. For example, the banners have to be placed by hand and there are more than 25 banners in this small array. Who has the time to plant these banners properly and in perfect circular shape during battle? Also, the banners themselves, although they are made of strong metal, are still vulnerable to destruction if they are targeted... This array is actually useful for a hospital in the back lines, but not for use in attack and defense!"
"Oh…" The rest of the scholars and guests in the hall looked at each other with some disappointment
"Chief Researcher Gu, please don't forget that this is still the first model!" One of the researchers in the array group quickly reacted, afraid that Old Gu's words would kill their momentum
A researcher from the information gathering team shook his head and sighed, "Even after mentioning the problems with the array, I still find the array to be flawless and not capable of further development. It is simply perfect. The metal used to make the banners is even stronger than the Volheim used in golden armor. However, If the banner moves a little, the array will be ruined, and it will certainly move if attacked in the battle! And even if we find a way to install the banner poles, what about the part made with beast hides? Couldn't it be easily burned or damaged? Unfortunately, there is nothing better that we could draw on... Frankly, I don't think there is a way to improve it. If a method exists, it will take us more than ten years to discover it and implement it."
The members of the array group looked down and bit their lips. They had actually worked day and night for three years to achieve this result and knew how difficult it would be to develop further. As for Zara, she shrugged her shoulders, not caring about the negative comments. As long as the array was good for what it was designed for, everything would be fine!
Robin shook his head, "All of you... Aren't you supposed to be in the research and development department? I can't believe you still haven't seen the most important path this idea can be applied to yet, something that if implemented, not only will the death toll among the elite decrease, but we will control entire worlds in days!" Then a big smile appeared on his face, "As for the development issue, it is a trivial issue that can be solved easily."
