Tossing aside Rick's ultimatum, Rocky looked at Athena.

"What do you think, what is Rick trying to do, is he planning to really start a war with us?"

It is naturally impossible for Rocky not to pay attention to the news from Rick, after all, the other party is the lord of a city and the head of a sect, and more importantly, his son is still imprisoned in his own hands, all of which makes Rocky's attitude towards Rick not dare to take it lightly.

But again, he was more concerned about another matter, and that was whether he could find some other clues from Rick's actions to prove whether someone was secretly instigating this.

In fact, in Rocky's opinion, the clue was already obvious, because Rick's condition was clearly written to ask him to hand over the White Demon Warframe and all the technology related to it, and this demand could be described as obvious.

However, to be on the safe side, he still called Athena to his side, and Athena was obviously the best at this kind of thing.

Glancing at the ultimatum that had been set aside, Athena turned to Rocky: "My lord, this alone is not enough to draw conclusions. ”

"Still can't?"

"Yes, not yet. Nodding, Athena explained: "Rick, as the city lord of a large Sky City, must have heard of the power of the White Demon Battle Armor a long time ago, and it is not impossible to blackmail us through this incident, so it is difficult to determine anything based on this alone." ”

"But you can rest assured, no matter whether there is someone behind this matter or not, as long as Zuro is in our hands, Rick will not really start a war against us, I think he will intimidate us at most, on the one hand, to protect his son, and on the other hand, to make us pay compensation according to his terms, and then we may be able to find out the truth. ”

"Intimidation ......"

Hearing this word, Rocky frowned, this word is easy to understand, for ordinary people, waving a fist can be called intimidation, and for city to city, intimidation often represents the threat of force, that is to say, the troops of Tianzu City are coming?

Thinking of this, his brow furrowed even tighter, and he thought carefully for a long time before looking up at Athena.

"You mean to say that you want to test the attitude of the Sky Alliance through the reaction of Heavenly Ancestor City?"

"Your Excellency is wise. ”

Smiling slightly, Athena nodded, she really meant it!

During their last conversation, Athena suggested that it was normal for someone to be concerned about Rocky's technology and to use all means to take it for themselves, but if the Sky Alliance was also involved, then Rocky would be in big trouble.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of Tianzu City's attack, it was just the right time to test the alliance's reaction, and then make a more accurate judgment.

If the Sky Alliance is not involved in this matter, then Rocky still has a solid backer, and as long as this backer is there, he can get through any difficulties.

But if the Sky Alliance participates at this time, then Rocky will have to think in the long run, and then he will completely become a loner, not to mention whether he can keep the rune technology in his hand, and whether he can continue to survive in this world will become a big problem!

So what kind of attitude the alliance is has become the top priority.

"Okay......"

After listening to Athena's explanation, Rocky nodded, followed by a wave of her hand and let her go.

When Athena left, he was left alone and thought about it for a long time, and finally got up and went to the testing ground.

Although everything was still half-hidden, he had a strong premonition that forced him to start thinking about what he would do if the worst happened.

In fact, this method is also very simple, that is, to do your best to become stronger in the fastest time!

As long as his strength is strong, others will not dare to bully him, and once his strength is strong enough to a certain extent, exceeding a certain critical point, then let alone Heavenly Ancestor City, even the Sky Alliance will definitely not dare to act rashly against him.

But having said that, this kind of thing is almost impossible for most people to do, but Rocky is different, he is qualified to do it!

Don't look at the current Rocky's strength is still very weak compared to other behemoths in the sky, but he not only has the world's top technology in hand, but also has a lot of money after starting the warframe business, and when these two key conditions are met, he can do what others can't do!

And the first thing he had to do was to finish the Thunder Eagle Armor immediately.

Now that the experimental armor of the Thunder Eagle Warframe has been manufactured, it is waiting for further testing, and in order to be able to complete this new type of Warframe that he has painstakingly designed as soon as possible, Rocky plans to go into battle himself, and test the Thunder Eagle Warframe as if he had tested the White Demon Warframe.

So after arriving at the proving ground, Rocky put on the experimental armor and followed a series of trials and tests.

"Rocky, do the basic test first, don't rush, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it. ”

Standing in front of a pile of instruments, Hammerfire used the communicator to communicate with Rocky, and he could see that Rocky had become more and more urgent in the testing of the armor, but there were some things that could not be rushed, so he had to be reminded.

"I understand. ”

With a promise, Rocky in the warframe took a deep breath to adjust his mentality, and then said, "Start activating the warframe." ”

After saying this, he methodically followed the steps to activate the battle armor, and as the battle armor was activated, the instruments in front of the hammer fire immediately reacted.

"Demonic energy is conducting normally. ”

"Warframes are functioning normally. ”

"The propulsion system is normal. ”

"The weapon system is normal. ”

When a series of indicators appeared on the instrument, the researcher who observed the data said one after another, followed by Hammer Fire and contacted Rocky: "Rocky, the armor is working properly, let's start testing." ”

"Understood. ”

After saying this, Rocky turned on the warframe's propulsion system and slowly flew from the ground into the air.

It's just that unlike the way ordinary warframes take off, the warframe he wears at this time does not take off by the warframe's own propulsion system, but relies on the external wings carried behind him to provide power and fly into the sky.

"The output index of the external wing is normal. ”

As he slowly flew into the sky, the instruments that monitored the external wing continued to appear various indicators and data, according to which the performance of the external wing was quite stable.

This was obviously a good result, and when this result appeared, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, Rocky, who had already flown into the air, began to gradually accelerate.

But at this moment, just as Rocky was constantly increasing his flight speed and reaching a certain speed, all of a sudden, the instrument responsible for monitoring the external wings suddenly lit up red!
