263 Attack of the Beasts

To Wu Mo, studying a skill and ability thoroughly was more meaningful and satisfying than any entertainment.

Looking at the model on the computer taking form, Wu Mo’s excitement and antic.i.p.ation grew.

The research and development of exoskeleton technology required a lot of skills as a foundation.

Moreover, if he wanted to cast the prototype, not only would he need a workbench, but he would also need a lot of modern, cutting-edge equipment.

Wu Mo did not have any of those.

However, the general direction and forging ideas for the prototype were already in his mind.

He specifically made it known that at least 13 modules were required to cast the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear.

Compared with making the three types of Spirit Wave Swords, this was simply on a h.e.l.lish level of difficulty.

Although Wu Mo was thirsty for knowledge and he had a much better comprehension than a regular person, he only knew very little about the many technical prerequisites.

If he wanted to achieve all the required functions, he would need to do additional research and development.

It was eight in the morning.

Wu Mo woke up in the familiar studio.

He shook his slightly drowsy head and looked around.

It was the place where he had stayed for a week.

Aside from when it was time to eat, he would spend the rest of his time in the research room.

Fortunately, Wu Mo was not afraid of loneliness. Instead, he enjoyed his current life.

Of course, the enjoyment he was talking about just covered the mental aspect. After all, there was no place to even lie down at night in the laboratory, and life was not that relaxing at all.

Lately, he had been fully focused on learning skills.

Even when he went out for a routine meal, he would still lower his head and think about how to implement three-dimensional gear.

Seven days pa.s.sed just like that, and Wu Mo did not go out at all except to eat.

Each day, he lived a life that seemed very boring in the eyes of others.

Wu Mo’s academic spirit and discipline also affected the other researchers on the entire floor.

Before they truly understood Wu Mo, they had a.s.sumed that Wu Mo had only been forge such powerful equipment due to his talent alone.

However, after spending seven days with him, they realized that their previous views and understanding of Wu Mo had just been to console themselves.

What kind of genius was he?

What was the point of having geniuses if hard work made all the difference?

Even a genius like him worked hard every day, forgetting to eat or sleep, and devoted himself to research day and night.

What right did these people have to use the word “genius” to deny the effort that others had put in for a long time?

Therefore, after seeing Wu Mo’s character and the things he had done, they felt that they had lost.

They finally understood that there was no such thing as an absolute genius in this world. The only way to become stronger was to work hard!

In the quiet studio…

“Ahhh.”

Wu Mo stretched lazily.

He looked around with sleepy eyes before he stood up and opened the locked door.

Walking out of the quiet laboratory, Wu Mo took his toiletries to the only washroom on the entire floor.

When he pa.s.sed by the resting area in the middle, Wu Mo saw that only a small part of the laboratory doors were open, and in the resting area, there was only one young man sitting on the couch.

According to the working hours there, the researchers would probably not arrive until nine o’clock.

In the quiet washroom, Wu Mo looked at his tired self in the mirror. He grinned and immediately washed his face with cold water.

He felt much more refreshed after washing up.

The mental and physical fatigue from days of study were cast away at that moment.

Just as he left the sink and was about to go downstairs to the cafeteria for lunch…

His gaze suddenly shifted to a researcher who was resting on the couch not far away.

The latter was about 35 years old, and he had previously been at his prime. But the young man’s hair was a little spa.r.s.e now, and he seemed to be balding.

However, what attracted Wu Mo’s attention was not the his head, but the phone screen in his hand.

“According to the reports from the frontline, at 8.30 pm last night, a small spatial rift suddenly appeared on the plains three miles away from the high walls of the White River province’s border city, Lushui County. Hundreds of beasts rushed out from the rift and attacked Lushui County’s city defenses in what seemed to be a planned attack.

“This beast attack has caused nearly 200 casualties, and similar incidents have been happening more frequently in recent months. We have yet to find a suitable solution.

“Subsequent information will be provided by the local City Defense Army.”

On the mobile phone’s screen, related headlines with a blue background came to an abrupt end, and what followed was footage of the beasts attacking the city!

The footage provided to the news channel was slightly shaky, showing that the cameraman was also somewhat panicking at that time.

At eight o’clock in the evening, the sky in Lushui County was already dark. Countless neon lights and dim street lights intertwined in the city, illuminating a grand occasion under the flow of traffic and horses.

However, all of this was just before the disaster.

From the beginning of the scene, one could see that the photographer was shooting from a high-rise building in the city.

On the street that the camera was aimed at, people were like ants, and cars were only a little larger paper box.

However, the peaceful scene was destroyed at the 13th second.

A huge vibration suddenly rang out in the silent night sky.

The camera jerked and soon pointed at the source of the sound.

Right then, an extremely powerful force smashed through Lushui County’s three-meter-tall wall.

The city wall was made of concrete, and it had a smooth body. Not only could it block most animals and fierce beasts, but the solid wall and the defense of its Tier 4 array could also block the full power of a five-star cultivator even if his attack spread in every direction!

However, the city wall, which had such a high defensive power and was nearly 30 centimeters thick, was instantly destroyed by an unknown and strange force.

The special black stone bricks mixed with the steel bars were instantly sent flying, and screams echoed through the entire street amid dust and dirt.

Many drivers were attracted by the loud noise, which eventually led to a car accident. The entire street was in a mess.

The pa.s.sers-by who were closer to the city wall looked in the smoke’s direction with fear!

There seemed to be a human figure flashing in the thick fog, but it was too vague to identify.

In addition, the light was dim at night, so no one knew what had happened.

“Rawr!”

Just as everyone was discussing whether the pipeline had exploded or if there had been an accident, a deafening roar erupted.
