Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? Chapter 269 - 269 Professor Tan's Worries

Chapter 269 - 269 Professor Tan's Worries

269 Professor Tan’s Worries

The world changed over 100 years, and only true heroes and meritorious officials could leave their marks in the long line of history.

Over that period, the big shot who had personally forged the Divine Weapon had left his name in history, and he was worshipped by everyone.

As for those who had mediocre talent and were unwilling to work hard, they would have nothing left not long after.

The three of them soon arrived at the center of the exhibition. Not only did they see many high-tech instruments, but they also saw many big shots who usually did not demonstrate their talents.

Wu Mo had learned about these familiar faces through the television.

He never thought that he would be able to see them with his own eyes one day.

These leaders all had a few six-star and above cultivators protecting them. The few of them spoke with fervor and a.s.surance, and there was a kind of disapproving air in their movements.

Looking at the shiny epaulets on their shoulders, Wu Mo felt a sense of longing. Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf, who were standing beside him, also looked at them in awe.

A few minutes later, Wu Mo pa.s.sed through the crowd and arrived where the equipment was displayed.

The instruments there were products of mixing modern technology and the field of forging.

Not only did they retain high-tech functions, but they also achieved a level that was not possible in the field of science and technology.

For example, modern technology had solved all the flying difficulties in a single aircraft. The controls were easy to understand, and it could carry up to several hundred kilograms.

The only disadvantage was the fuel energy supply. Traditional gasoline could not support such a huge consumption. Even with a special compressed fuel pack, it could not last more than 20 kilometers.

In an environment with restored spirit energy, many materials with great power were created.

Whether it was an Origin Stone or the melting of materials to form a new energy stone, the spirit energy within them was extremely powerful.

One only needed to modify the aircraft’s engine a little and it would be perfect.

The single-soldier aircrafts today were not only small in size, but the soldiers no longer needed to carry thick fuel packs. Most importantly, the aircraft could travel up to about 1,000 kilometers. Moreover, the alt.i.tude limit had increased from the original 100 meters to more than 500 meters.

Many pieces of equipment and cars could not come close in terms of the mobility provided by such an aircraft.

However, the aircraft had no protection at all. If it was attacked by hot weapons, it would be a living target in the sky.

Nevertheless, Wu Mo believed that in the future, these high-tech weapons would continue to be improved on until they became mainstream equipment on the battlefield!

Wu Mo’s horizons broadened following his observation.

Although the White River province was relatively backward in technology and forging compared with the other regions, it had still made a lot of progress over a long time. If it could continue to develop, the gap between it and the other regions should become smaller and smaller.

Just as Wu Mo fell deep in thought, Bald Eagle touched his shoulder.

Wu Mo raised his head and was about to say something, but he saw Academician Xu standing in the crowd and chatting with someone.

“As expected, Academician Xu is here.”

Once he spotted an acquaintance, the little restraint in Wu Mo’s heart disappeared.

Academician Xu, who was standing a few meters away, also noticed Wu Mo and Bald Eagle’s presence.

He immediately smiled and waved, while Wu Mo quickly walked forward. When he approached Academician Xu, he realized that Professor Tan was also there.

“h.e.l.lo, Professor Tan.”

Wu Mo raised his hand and saluted. Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf immediately greeted him as well.

Professor Tan smiled and said, “Hahaha, what a coincidence. We were just talking about you.”

“Huh? Me? I haven’t done anything recently, have I?” Wu Mo asked doubtfully.

He had been in the laboratory for more than 10 days. Aside from eating, he had been immersed in work.

Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf, who were standing behind Wu Mo, were also looking at the two elders with respect.

Xu Wuyue and Professor Tan were core figures in the Fifth Research Department. In terms of military positions, only the leaders of the Military Departments could reach their level.

“I heard that you’ve been developing new equipment recently. Is that right?”

Professor Tan was in his 50s. He had many wrinkles on his face and a slightly hunched body, but he was full of energy. When it came to strength, only Professor Liu could compare to him.

Wu Mo dared not ignore Professor Tan’s question and immediately answered, “I’ve been planning to forge new equipment recently, but I’ve only made some progress these few days. It’ll take a long time to complete it.

After hearing Wu Mo’s humble words, Professor Tan smiled and said, “He stayed in the laboratory for more than 10 days and devoted himself to learning. I’m afraid that many senior researchers can’t do that. Academician Xu, this student under you really has the talent of a master.”

“Professor Tan, you’re too kind.”

Wu Mo blushed and could not handle Professor Tan’s compliments.

Seeing Wu Mo’s embarra.s.sed look, Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf could not help but be happy for him in their hearts. Wu Mo could forge the Invisibility Armor and Spirit Wave Sword, and he had such strong forging skills. So, it was a surprise that he would blush from a few words of praise.

However, Bald Eagle still understood that it was not appropriate for him and Lone Wolf to be present in their conversation.

“Comrade Xu, Professor Tan, there are some security matters that the two of us need to handle in the exhibition hall. We’ll be taking our leave first.”

At the side, Lone Wolf stood up straight with a faint smile on his face.

“Alright, you guys can go ahead. Thank you for your hard work.”

Academician Xu nodded and spoke in a gentle voice.

After receiving permission, the two of them left right away, leaving only Wu Mo, Academician Xu, and Professor Tan standing next to a two-meter-tall bronze statue.

“Professor Tan, stop complimenting him. Wu Mo is good in every way, but he’s too humble. If you continue to praise him, he might not even attend the exhibition and just run back to the laboratory.” Xu Wuyue patted Wu Mo’s shoulder and said with a smile.

Professor Tan’s eyes were full of envy. Wu Mo was down-to-earth, and he had the spirit of scientific research. Most importantly, he was not arrogant. There was nothing wrong with his skills or character.

Professor Tan was certain that Wu Mo would be able to reach the six-star rank within three years as long as there were no unexpected situations in the future.

When that time came, Wu Mo would likely to become the youngest six-star blacksmith in the Fifth Research Department’s past 70-year history.

He was such a good seed. As long as he was carefully taught and his doubts were dispelled, he would certainly be able to soar beyond White River’s sky, occupying a place in the entire Nine Provinces.

It was true that there was no harm without comparison.

Looking at Wu Mo, who was like a shining Morning Star, Professor Tan recalled the student who had been kicked out of White River province a few months ago.

At the thought of this, his face was immediately covered in sadness.
