“But why?” Sui Xiong thought for a while, but he still did not understand how the newly mass-produced armor that looked very common in any way could resist the Great Disintegration Spell. Finally, he had to ask the Rune God like a school pupil asking his teacher for the truth.

  The Rune God laughed and touched his long white beard like an old teacher and said, “The key to the problem is its uniform texture. Essentially, the Great Disintegration Spell has to find defects in the target structure and destroy them. But when the Great Disintegration Spell faces equipment with a uniform texture, it cannot exert its powers. This has long been known. For example, a shield can resist the Great Disintegration Spell by one polishing the shield with a piece of uniform crystal.”

  Sui Xiong blinked; he really hadn’t known that.

  Not only him, but also most gods had not already known that. Perhaps only the dwarf gods knew that armor with uniform textures could resist the Great Disintegration Spell.

  “What about this armor? Its greatest feature is its uniformity,” the Rune God said. “Amazing! Its uniformity is almost like crystal…… It never occurred to me that even metals could reach this point!”

  Sui Xiong guessed the reason why the armor had such a uniform texture. The steel used to make the armor came from the molten iron flowing out of the blast furnace, and the molten iron needed to be stirred repeatedly during the production process, so the texture became more uniform. Compared to armor produced through other means, this type of armor had a more uniform texture.

  “Unfortunately, this armor is still not entirely uniform,” the Rune God lamented.” If its texture becomes more uniform, the powers of the Great Disintegration Spell can not hover on it and destroy the parts that connect the armor. Instead, the Great Disintegration Spell will dissipate directly as soon as it hits the armor because there would be no “uneven places” to accommodate it.”

  Sui Xiong nodded slightly, but his eyes brightened.

  In his eyes, it was possible to make the armor more uniform. The first time, the molten iron produced from the blast furnace had to go back into the furnace again and then it was stirred repeatedly with more strength in the second blast furnace. Therefore, impurities would be removed, and the texture of the molten iron would become much more uniform.

  As for the second blast furnace, it could be heated by magic power or by electric energy. Anyway, as long as the steel had been smelted, there were many ways to make its texture more uniform.

  “It seems that you have already come up with an idea.” The Rune God immediately saw through Sui Xiong’s expression. He smiled and said, “When you make a new armor, you must let me see it!”

  “I can make a new armor with more a uniform texture now, and you don’t have to wait for a long time.” Sui Xiong laughed, and his tentacles picked up the plates of the armor that had fallen to the ground earlier. He threw them into the air, suspended them with Divine Power and then spewed out flames to heat them up.

  \r \r \r

  It was not difficult for him to burn iron and steel into molten iron with his strong Divine Power. After a while, there were no plates of the armor in the air, only a mass of hot and red molten iron.

  Sui Xiong controlled the molten iron with his Divine Power, eliminated the unnecessary impurities, and finally got a new mass of molten iron. He re-condensed the molten iron and turned it into a new plate. Because he was only doing an experiment, he did not turn it into armor, only making it into the shape of a shield.

  When this plate cooled down, Sui Xiong cast a Great Disintegration Spell at it immediately.

  The Great Disintegration Spell, which had not been strengthened by Divine Power, hit the shield and dispersed in an instant without any power being left behind.

  It was exactly what the Rune God had expected!

  “Amazing! I never thought there would be such a wonderful thing in the world!” the Rune God said excitedly. “It’s amazing that the texture of the plate can be uniform enough to disperse the Great Disintegration Spell!”

  Sui Xiong nodded and rolled up the shield with his tentacles. Then he frowned and said, “It became soft?”

  “What?” The Rune God was stunned for a moment and took the shield from Sui Xiong. He pinched and knocked on the shield. Then he could not help but frown. “That’s really strange! Why would it become soft?”

  In fact, the shield had just become a little soft; at least, it was much stronger than wood or other solid things. However, Sui Xiong and the Rune God were so sensitive that they could immediately feel any slight softness of the shield. It was like a hard stone turning into a slightly softer one-any experienced craftsman could feel the difference.

  However, why would steel become softer after further removing the impurities of it?

  Sui Xiong and the Rune God looked at each other and did not understand the reason.

  However, if Sui Xiong was an engineering student, he would have known the reason. Unfortunately, he was just an art student. The hardness of pure iron was lower than that of steel, and most common magnets in life were made of pure iron. People who had played with magnets knew that they were slightly softer than steel knives or other things made of steels.

  As for why the shield would become softer, Sui Xiong could even write a special paper to explain. But no one in the world was able to write such a paper. Even if there was such a paper in front of Sui Xiong, he would only stare at those symbols representing hardness, strength, temperature and so on. Sui Xiong would only say, “I know every word, but I can’t understand when those words constitute a paper.”

  This episode did not affect Sui Xiong and the Rune God. They thought about it for a while and came up with a solution to the problem. They made this very uniform steel into a thin piece and inlaid it on the outside of the armor, just like wrapping iron on the outside of the wooden shield.

  The inner armor was made to provide strong protection while the outer iron cladding was made to resist the Great Disintegration Spell. The only disadvantage was probably that the armor might be too heavy.

  “I’m afraid that only Hercules can wear such a suit of armor to fight in battles,” Sui Xiong thought for a moment and said with a bitter smile. “If ordinary people wear such kind of armor, they wouldn’t be able to even walk fast.”

  “Never mind. A Hercules is not difficult to find,” the Rune God laughed and said. “Compared with making this kind of armor, it’s much easier to find a group of Hercules’s. If you can’t find a Hercules, I’ll get a group of them for you. They are many of them in our Dwarf Race.”

  The two gods smiled at each other after saying this.

  Dwarves were relatively short, which meant their armor would use less steel. What’s more, most dwarves were strong. Even if the armor was heavier, it would not be a problem for them at all.

  That was to say, this kind of wonderful armor suited them very well.

  Once the armored warriors of the Dwarf Race wore such armor and added more protection magic, they would become real “mobile fortresses.” The “anti-magic” problem that plagued them so much in the past would no longer exist!

  The Rune God looked around and whispered to Sui Xiong like a thief, “Your Majesty, are you willing to work with me during this time?”

  Sui Xiong nodded.

  “For a long time, we dwarves have never had any disputes with the Church of Void Mask or the Northwest Republic.”

  Sui Xiong nodded.

  “In that case, would you be interested in strengthening our relationship?” the Rune God asked tentatively. “I think there is still a lot of room for cooperation between us……”

  Sui Xiong smiled and agreed with him.

  “No problem!”
