Chapter 121: Item Discussion

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wu Mo stayed where he was for half a minute. In just a short while, he saw several different types of birds flying over his head.

They were either standing on the top of a tree branch and chirping, or they just took a glance at him, an uninvited guest, and flew off into the distance.

In order to find the Dark Light Butterfly as soon as possible, Wu Mo directly summoned the system interface and exchanged his points for a pair of shoes that could increase his speed.

After spending 800 points, Wu Mo changed into black canvas shoes.

These shoes were light and breathable. They only looked rough. They were no different from ordinary shoes, but upon careful observation, one would be able to discover several mysterious array patterns on both sides. There was also a sapphire-blue ore inlaid at the center.

Sensing the slight coolness from the shoe, Wu Mo grinned and increased his speed, climbing toward the top of the mountain.

There was a lush scenery in front of him, and the mountain path beneath his feet was rugged.

Not long after, his field of vision became much wider.

He turned around and looked behind. He had already reached a height of over 100 meters.

Wu Mo raised his head and looked into the distance, but he did not see the shadow of the lustrous butterfly.

He could only continue walking further away. From time to time, he would bring out a cup of water and take a sip.

Time did not pass quickly in the mountains.

After crossing countless mountain ranges, he finally found a Dark Light Butterfly among the wildflowers.

The butterfly’s body was dark gray, and it was only seven to eight centimeters in size. However, its wings were as wide as a palm and dark purple. Under the sunlight, it could change the color of its wings. It was very mysterious.

After finally seeing the wings, Wu Mo’s heart finally settled down.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly walked toward the wildflowers growing under the trees’ shade.

However, to forge a huge armor, he needed a lot of Dark Light Wings. He could not gather all of them in a short time.

He would have to return to his dormitory at night, and it would probably take him a few days to find enough wings for a set of armor.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

In the present, Zhou Ning gathered all the researchers related to the project in the building to discuss their follow-up plans.

There were only a dozen days left until the end of the mission.

Most of the graduate students should have been able to come up with a prototype of their improvement plan by this time.

When the time came, they would need to record all the stages of their equipment and the direction of its improvement.

However, when everyone arrived, they realized that Wu Mo was not there.

Lai Hua, who was the latest to arrive, sat down on the couch. He looked to the left and right, and once he realized that Wu Mo had not arrived, he immediately asked in a strange tone, “Huh… Why isn’t everyone here?”

“Wow, you still don’t know, right? Wu Mo has been running to the back mountain every day for the past few days. It’s very enjoyable to go sightseeing.”

Zhang Yuan changed his position and sat on the couch as he spoke in a teasing tone.

“Huh? is that so? Doesn’t that kid know that there are only a dozen days left until the end of the mission? He still has the mood to go out and play?”

Chu Qingyan could not sit still after hearing that. He sounded as if he was full of surprise.

Feng Qi pursed his lips and explained, “I don’t know. I heard that he’s been going to the back mountain to catch butterflies. I wonder if he’s caught them in the past few days.”

“Good guy, it seems that I’m still early,” Lai Hua complained helplessly.

At that moment, Zhou Ning, who had been sitting at the side and silently sending messages on her phone, stood up abruptly. “Let’s not wait for him. We can start first. If any of you have made an improved prototype, you can bring it out for us to see.

“Academician Xu will be here soon,” she said casually.

As she spoke, the others nodded in agreement.

Wu Mo had been spending time on the back mountain during the day recently. Unless they waited until nighttime, he would not be back to meet them at all.

The discussion started, and the four people present took out their forging items one after another.

Only a month had passed since the beginning.

However, every member of the assault team was a graduate student with high forging skills.

They all gave their own opinions on the improvements, especially after they

Although a month’s time was not enough to produce a finished product, it was enough to complete the casting of the prototype.

Soon, Feng Qi took out a silver armor.

The armor was embedded with multi-functional modules, and many of its joints were designed to fit very well.

It might have only been a rough framework, but everyone understood where he was going with its development.

“Even though this only took me a week, I used a lot of advanced casting techniques. They’re in line with human mechanics. Even if you wear it for a long time, it won’t consume much energy.”

Feng Qi smiled confidently and introduced his creation proudly.

Zhou Ning looked at the semi-finished armor on the table. A moment later, she seemed to discover something wrong, but she just furrowed her brows slightly.

She was only a project assistant, so she had no obligation to give suggestions to the staff’s work, and of course, she had no right to comment on it.

“Not bad, Feng Qi. As expected of Shen Cheng’s top student. Your idea’s pretty good.”

Lai Hua stood up and stared at the semi-finished armor in front of him with shining eyes while he praised it.

“Okay, Chu Qingyan, it’s your turn!”

A few of them began to exchange ideas on how to improve the armor. This time, with the semi-finished armor physically present, they were able to finalize the idea of improving the armor. Therefore, there were quite a number of practical ideas in the discussion this time.

“Not only did I thicken the armor in the elbow area, but I also used supramolecular materials. It’s light and breathable but also increases the defense of a large area. It’s perfect.”

“What about your concealment?” Chu Qingyan asked subconsciously.

“Uh… I added a star camouflage pattern on the surface. The effect is almost the same as before.”

Lai Hua was instantly stumped by the question, but he immediately reacted and answered with a stiff neck.

The several individuals were close to finishing their discussion. Each of the four took out half-finished products and gave their ideas for improvement so that the rest could discuss.

Seeing them come up with good ideas and mention professional terms, Zhou Ning could not help but raise her eyebrows.

Sometimes, brainstorming was more useful than writing alone.

However… Wu Mo did not seem to be keeping up at this moment.

She seemed slightly absent-minded based on her gaze.

Right then, Academician Xu, who was wearing a lab coat, walked over from the corner of the corridor. When he saw the members of the assault team disussing, his footsteps unwittingly became lighter.

“Academician… Academician Xu is here!”

Chu Qingyan said with an excited face. He was facing the corridor, but he immediately stood up when he saw that familiar gaze.

The people around him quickly got up and straightened their postures, hoping to leave a good impression on their leader.

“Everyone’s been working hard. You started work so early!”

Academician Xu walked over with a smile and greeted everyone one by one.

“Good morning, Academician Xu,” Zhou Ning, the project assistant immediately bowed and greeted him respectfully.

“How is everyone’s project progressing? There’s no need to be reserved. I’m just here to look around. You can continue your discussion.”

Academician Xu waved his hand, signaling everyone to relax.
