Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

394 The Peak of Modern Technology

However, because the Super Loop was an important strategic infrastructure in the White River province, the security there was extremely tight.

The cultivators who escorted the blacksmiths were famous and known to the public. Even so, when everyone was ready to pass the security check and enter the operation and maintenance center, they still could not skip the complicated and cumbersome inspection procedures.

Not only were they searched, but their equipment and items were also examined.

After the security personnel confirmed that there was no problem with the five of them and that they did not carry any equipment that posed a threat to the Super Loop, they finally opened the gate for them to enter.

“Take care of your belongings. We have to set off soon.”

Guan Hu was the first to put on his equipment. Then, he immediately urged the rest of them.

Before long, everyone was ready to embark again.

They walked through the corridor and pushed open the building’s glass door.

The building looked like a sand dune on the outside, but its interior design was grand and magnificent.

High-tech equipment could be seen everywhere in the hall. There were unmanned automatic cleaning devices. There were also air intake grizzles on the surrounding walls that could be adjusted according to the light intensity and wind direction.

All kinds of smart devices not only achieved constant temperature and humidity inside the building but also made every area bright as new.

The visual impact of being in a sea of advanced technology made the young blacksmiths open their mouths slightly.

These young blacksmiths were different from the five experienced cultivators who had seen many rare, as well as powerful equipment, and been to many places with good scenery.

However, their understanding of modern technology was far from enough.

Before they entered the operation and maintenance center, they did not realize that the modern technology in the White River province had developed to such a stage.

Of course, if Wu Mo had not been to the armory, he would have been as shocked as the others when he saw the visually impactful scene.

“I thought that in this era of spirit energy recuperation, modern technology had lost its competitiveness and become a product abandoned by the times.

“I didn’t expect modern technology to still flourish in places we don’t see, and it has already prospered to such an extent.”

Chen Qingbai’s face was filled with disbelief as he muttered to himself.

It was obvious that the microcosm of modern technology before him had broken the three views he had formed over the years, and it shocked him.

Although Xu Wanqing, Gan Yun, and Liu Ze were slightly better off than Chen Qingbai, they still had an incredulous look on their faces.

Of course, even they rarely saw something so grand.

“There’s no need to be excited now. When you see the Super Loop, you’ll be even more impressed.”

Zhangsun Long, who was walking in front of them, immediately gave them a heads-up when he saw the shocked expressions on their faces.

He just wanted to make sure that they did not become crippled with shock when they saw the Super Loop later.

Hearing Zhangsun Long’s reminder, the young blacksmiths immediately realized that they had lost their composure.

Xu Wanqing lowered her head shyly.

Gan Yun and Liu Ze smiled eagerly and did not make any attempt to hide how they felt.

After Chen Qingbai snapped out of it, his face turned slightly red. He hurriedly looked to his left and right as he pretended not to care.

In the operation and maintenance center, several staff members who were responsible for guiding them immediately brought them to the fifth building at the center.

They passed through a wide gray brick square, and Wu Mo was surprised when he approached the fifth building.

It was surrounded by several armored vehicles and anti-air turrets.

The place looked entirely like a military base that could not be invaded by a flood.

The rumbling of armored vehicles patrolling sounded in their ears, but the fully armed cultivators who walked in unison made them feel extremely safe.

When they arrived at the entrance of the fifth building, the staff in charge of docking and the guards gave them a briefing.

After everyone’s work ID and invitation certificates were checked, the 10-person team successfully walked in.

The fifth building’s decor was similar to that of the other buildings. It was also bright and full of technology.

What made it different was the people who were coming and going. They were all researchers in lab coats.

Among them were some old men with gray hair and patchy sideburns.

A few of the old men also had sunken eyes and wrinkled faces. Just looking at them made one’s heart ache.

Although they looked weak, there seemed to be a layer of invisible force field around their bodies. Wu Mo could not even detect if they had spirit power.

There could only be two reasons for this.

The first possibility was that the person was just an ordinary old man. He was not a blacksmith, and he did not have spirit power.

The second possibility was that the person’s spirit power far surpassed Wu Mo’s. Not only could he conceal his aura, but he could also block any attempts from others to detect his aura.

If they were on the streets, Wu Mo might have believed the first scenario. However, this was the Super Loop Operation Center, and they were in the fifth building, which was the core.

Therefore, even if he used his toes to think, Wu Mo knew that these elders’ were definitely above the seven-star rank.

“The fact that the Super Loop can travel thousands of kilometers in such a short period of time has to be due to the use of spirit energy.”

After careful observation, Wu Mo gained a certain understanding of the place.

The group followed the footsteps of the staff. After crossing a long corridor and passing dozens of people, they finally arrived at the core of the entire building.

“Everyone, please cooperate and enter your information in the smart identification device before the door.”

A well-dressed, educated female staff member explained that after everyone entered their information, they could enter the Super Loop deployment site.

“I understand, I understand. Everyone, stop wasting time. Go ahead and enter your information,” Guan Hu immediately said following the staff’s explanation.

Then, he took the lead to approach the identification device and operated it according to the instructions.

“Guest Guan Hu’s information has been entered. Fingerprint and iris matches are 100%.”

Soon, a mechanical voice rang out from the identification device beside the door.

At the same time, the thick explosion-proof doors opened from both sides made a rumbling sound.

Guan Hu walked in with a relaxed expression as if he was very familiar with the place.

After that, Wen Yuan, Zhangsun Long, Bald Eagle, and Lone Wolf successfully entered their information and walked in.

“You’re actually using a device to identify me. Are you worried that someone might pretend to be me?”

Looking at the identification device in front of him, Chen Qingbai snorted coldly as if he was not satisfied with the hospitality of the Super Loop’s staff.

The others looked at Chen Qingbai in surprise but did not say anything.

Seeing that no one was going up, Wu Mo immediately went up to the identification device.
