Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

360 The Leaders Are Here, Waiting for the Test to Begin

It was then that Yang Ming remembered what had previously happened, and he specifically explained the situation to him.

However, at that time, he only paid a little attention to it and did not feel any regret.

It was not until a month ago, when the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear was introduced, that Shen Hongyuan felt extremely regretful that he did not get to know Wu Mo earlier.

It was also at the same time that he took the young blacksmith, Wu Mo, seriously.

The young man managed to develop three pieces of era-defining equipment in just a year.

Besides, each of them was even more explosive than the previous one, and that was enough to show the depth of Wu Mo’s forging skills.

More amazingly, every piece of equipment that Wu Mo had developed passed the military’s mass production evaluation standards.

In just over half a year, the structure of each machine in the city and the front lines of the war zone were equipped with the equipment developed by Wu Mo, which had a subtle positive influence.

Every single one of his achievements was enough to attract the attention of the forging masters in the military. Not to mention, Wu Mo did all this alone in merely one year.

Although Shen Hongyuan did not know much about forging, he was almost certain that Wu Mo would become a master blacksmith comparable to Zhuang Zhe in the future.

Wu Mo might even surpass him.

Just as Shen Hongyuan became immersed in his thoughts, the military vehicle suddenly slowed down.

He subconsciously turned his head to look out the window, fixing his attention on a high wall not far in front of him.

The dark-colored concrete wall occupied a large area of Shen Hongyuan’s field of vision, while an ancient metal gate connected two high-rise buildings.

There were a few security guards patrolling the area outside the gate.

After a short while, Shen Hongyuan’s gaze shifted from the old gate to the metal-framed words on the armory’s door.

[Armory No. 64.]

The words were like calligraphy on the plaque, flying and dancing like dragons.

They gave off a lively and powerful feeling as he looked at them from afar.

However, the military armory had gone through a lot of ups and downs since its establishment. The words on the door had become rusty like old men who had been around since the dawn of time.

A few minutes later, the military vehicle’s engine started up again.

More than a dozen vehicles entered the armory, and they soon parked in the designated area.

Several leaders got out of the vehicles and walked in with Elder Huang.

Along the way, Elder Huang introduced the armory’s layout before he brought a few leaders into the research facility for a tour.

He also showed them the forging apparatus that Wu Mo had been using frequently over the past few months and the efficiency of the various modern instruments around him.

Even though the three lieutenant generals were knowledgeable, Zhuang Zhe was the one who truly understood the field of forging.

Therefore, when the other two saw the cutting-edge modern equipment in the research facility, as well as the central control console that supplied energy to all the instruments through the pipes, they were amazed.

“Leaders, the combat test will begin at two o’clock in the afternoon. I’ve prepared some wine for you to enjoy now. I hope that’s alright with you. Shall we move to the dining hall first?”

After he showed them more than a dozen modern instruments of various sizes, Elder Huang noticed that it was about time and immediately suggested that they eat lunch before going to the arranged open-air warehouse to observe the test.

“Some simple food will do. Our main purpose here is to understand the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear’s application on the battlefield, so lunch doesn’t need to be too grand.” Lieutenant General Lu Yuansheng placed his hands behind his back and said calmly.

Then, he looked around at the new forging equipment and felt quite satisfied with the armory’s development over the years.

“We’ll do as Lieutenant General Lu has instructed. We still have duties, and it’s not convenient for us to stay in the capital for too long.”

Shen Hongyuan nodded, having the same thoughts as Lieutenant General Lu.

His only purpose for taking time off to come here was to see the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear’s specific abilities with his own eyes.

It would be even better if he could find an opportunity to talk to Wu Mo.

One should know that a week ago, when he returned to the Third Military Region from the northern war zone to discuss this matter, Battalion Commander Yang Ming had expressed to him several times a desire to come along and gain some experience.

However, they were worried that no one would be guarding the military area if the two of them were not around.

Therefore, Shen Hongyuan could only reject Battalion Commander Yang Ming’s request reluctantly. He planned to wait until he finished watching the test and went back. Then, he would relay the specific situation to Yang Ming orally and through video.

That was the only way he could comfort his old comrade who had accompanied him for many years.

Therefore, he would not delay the most important thing for the sake of satiating his stomach.

As for Zhuang Zhe, even though he did not express his opinion, Shen Hongyuan could tell from his anxious expression that he had the same thoughts as him.

Soon, they finished visiting the research facility and walked to the only dining hall in the armory.

On the other side, Lone Wolf and the cultivators who were participating in the combat test were also being properly briefed by Cao Jianzhong.

Not only had everyone enjoyed a sumptuous lunch, but Cao Jianzhong had also arranged a room for everyone after 12 o’clock. He did this to make sure that everyone would be at their best and not delay the combat test in the afternoon.

It was just that a few cultivators had a good relationship with Lone Wolf, and they were also very curious about the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear. Not long after they finished eating, they sneaked into Lone Wolf’s room.

“Please come in.”

Hearing the knock on his door, Lone Wolf, who was sitting by the bed, immediately raised his head and responded.

Very quickly, the door was pushed open, and a few cultivators in their 30s tiptoed into the room.

At that moment, Lone Wolf was sitting by the bed and bending over to untie the artificial limb from his right leg.

When the people around them saw this, their originally excited mood instantly died down.

“If you have anything to ask, just get on with it. You know about my leg, so I don’t need to explain again.”

Lone Wolf raised his head and looked at the few people who were hesitant before he quickly spoke in a calm voice.

“Well, we mainly want to understand how it feels like to wear the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear. And about the individual combat test that’s going to be held this afternoon, do you really have the confidence to defeat us?

“Do you need us to go easy on you?”

After obtaining Lone Wolf’s permission, one of the cultivators immediately spoke.

His expression was full of excitement because in less than two hours, they would be able to see the latest equipment that the military military had labeled as classified.

Although they were members of the Special Forces, their military rank was not on the level of a major general, so they had no right to learn much about the situation.

Therefore, as early as a week ago, when they discovered that they would be able to fight with Lone Wolf in a few days, everyone was excited.
