309 Setting Off to the Armory

“Wu Mo, you have a heavy responsibility now. It’s not suitable for you to go to a place like the armory. I think it’s better to leave this task to someone else.”

Old Wen, who was seated at the side, immediately spoke up to dissuade Wu Mo. He did not want Wu Mo’s confidence to be crushed just because of a trip to the armory. After all, he was still young. Even if he had knowledge on rich technology, he was definitely not as good as those old men who had been working in the armory all year round.

If there was a problem, he would get into trouble.

It would have been fine if it were anyone else, but at least these senior researchers were already over 50 years old. They would not have a problem with their confidence because of one or two setbacks.

However, Wu Mo was different. He was only a young man in his 20s, and he had not suffered any major setbacks in the Fifth Research Department for more than half a year.

!!

Old Wen was worried that Wu Mo would not be able to accept the situation and cause problems.

Obviously, Xu Wuyue had the same idea as old Wen.

Although the old fogeys from the armory knew a lot about forging, they had short tempers and were picky as well as hard to serve. Ordinary people, much less Wu Mo, really could not stand them.

Seeing that both old Wen and Academician Xu were against him going to the armory, Wu Mo stood up immediately and said with a serious face, “Academician Xu, old Wen, I know that you’re all concerned about me, but I have no choice but to go this time.”

“Firstly, I’m the inventor of the Invisibility Armor and the Spirit Wave Sword. I’m very familiar with these two pieces of equipment, so it’s my duty to provide a guide on their use.

Wu Mo’s tone was sincere, but his attitude was a little tough.

Secondly, there were some technical difficulties in the research and development of the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear. I need the cutting-edge modern instruments in the armory to help me cast my new gear.

“Therefore, I applied to visit Armory No. 64 to check the quality of its mass production.”

Wu Mo sat down after he finished speaking.

He could see that several senior researchers across the table were looking at him with admiration. It seemed that his move had benefited them.

“Well… since you’ve already made up your mind, I won’t try to persuade you anymore. You’ll be the armory’s quality supervisor from now on.”

Xu Wuyue looked at Wu Mo with a deep gaze. Seeing that Wu Mo had made up his mind, he no longer tried to persuade him and agreed.

Old Wen sighed as well. He opened his mouth but did not say anything.

“You guys do your own jobs and put more effort into the workshops’ production. The others do their own jobs and report to me if anything happens. That’s it for this monthly meeting. Dismissed!”

Xu Wuyue selected a few people and then announced the end of the meeting.

The few elders stood up one after another and left the meeting room with looks of relief.

Just as Wu Mo was about to leave, Academician Xu stopped him. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ (f)ir(e).net

“Academician Xu, is there anything else you want me to do?”

Wu Mo knew that Academician Xu was worried about him, so he immediately asked.

“Sigh, I was planning to arrange for the head of the research and development team, He Zhen, to go. I never thought that you’d be getting there first.”

Academician Xu smiled helplessly and continued, “The armory isn’t an ordinary organization. The people there have excellent forging skills. Even if you’re extremely strong among your peers, those old men might still look down on you.

“Anyway, be careful when you go to the armory. Try not to let those old guys get a hold of you.”

When Wu Mo heard Academician Xu’s words, he was a little stunned.

The armory was a strategic organization, so it should not be as dangerous as the academician said.

However, he knew that Academician Xu’s words were for his own good, so he did not say anything and nodded.

After a while, old Wen also walked up to him and said with a face full of reluctance, “When you get to the armory, you’ll have to calm down. Your position will be the same as those workers. There’s no hierarchy. Even if you get criticized, don’t take it to heart, understand?”

“If those old fogeys really do something outrageous, inform me immediately. It’s only for two months, it’ll pass in a flash.”

Old Wen’s body was slightly hunched, and he appeared reluctant to part with Wu Mo. He even reached out to smooth the wrinkles on Wu Mo’s sleeves.

It was as if he could not bear to part with his flesh and blood.

Professor Tan and Professor Liu, who were standing next to the conference table, exchanged looks. Wu Mo’s speech and actions at the conference were beyond their expectations.

He had already chosen a candidate for the position, not expecting to replace him in the end.

The point was, this was not a good job. If Wu Mo went, he would only be a scholar who met a soldier. In the hands of those old men, he would not have the upper hand at all.

However, the matter had been concluded with Wu Mo’s insistence, they could not say anything more.

After a while, Wu Mo separated from the others at the research building. They had already discussed that a military vehicle would be arranged to pick them up in a week.

Now, Wu Mo already had a lead on the modern cutting-edge instruments needed to cast the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear. He did not need to worry about anything else. What he needed to do next was learn more about the theoretical knowledge and techniques.

Once he arrived at the armory, he could devote himself to the research and development of the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear. As for the quality control of the mass-produced equipment, Wu Mo did not find any issue with it at all.

As he thought about it, Wu Mo could not help but speed up and return to the familiar laboratory.

For the next week, Wu Mo stayed in the laboratory and never went back to the villa.

In the last few days, he studied the documents given by the system via rote memorization. In addition, he also memorized the two master blacksmith’s notes.

A few days ago, his success rate in developing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear would have only been 75%.

However, after a week of reading books, his casting success rate had reached more than 90%.

From the use of the materials to the final step of strengthening, he had already memorized everything by heart. If nothing else happened along the way, it would not even take a month to complete the forging.

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, a week had passed.

After having breakfast in the cafeteria, Wu Mo left the Fifth Research Department in a military vehicle at 10.00 am.

Two cultivators at the peak of five stars were manning the vehicle.

The two cultivators were around 40 years old and quite talkative. On the way, Wu Mo did not feel bored.

He was just a little excited.

After all, the armory was a strategic organization that was deeply tied to the major battlefields.

Although their research and development capabilities were not as good as the Research Department’s, their ability to forge equipment was among the best in the entire White River province.

He would be staying in the armory for two months. During this time, he could use the convenience of his position to consult the staff.

After all, the equipment that was mass-produced and forged in the armory was of Epic grade and above. It was not easy being a blacksmith there. He would definitely be able to learn a lot.
