251 Chu Qingyan and the Battle Results That Can’t Stand Up to Scrutiny!
In terms of improvement speed, even Wu Mo could not compare.
Xu Wuyue, who was sitting in the main seat, could not help but worry after hearing Wu Mo’s words.
Chu Qingyan’s previous strength could only be considered average.
However, after entering the Red Heart region, his forging skills had undergone a tremendous change.
He was worried that Chu Qingyan, who used to be Wu Mo’s senior, might now have better skills than Wu Mo.
If that were the case, it would be even more impossible for the White River province to surpass him.
Wu Mo noticed the worry on Academician Xu’s face and immediately comforted him. “Don’t worry, Academician Xu. Even if he can forge a piece of armor, it couldn’t possibly be more valuable than the Spirit Wave Sword that I’ve forged.”
Academician Xu nodded slightly and felt a little relieved. However, he was still a little worried that the guy would be lucky enough to advance to the six-star rank before Wu Mo.
Xu Wuyue shook his head. He forced himself to get rid of these messy thoughts and continued.
“Not only has Chu Qingyan developed the all-in-one armor, but he has also completed two other technological breakthroughs in a short period of time. He even got a brigadier general to write him a letter of recommendation.
“At present, he has already sent out an application to participate in the Nine Provinces’ Annual Exchange Conference for blacksmiths. I’m afraid it won’t be long before he obtains the qualifications.”
The rest of the people present frowned when they heard this.
Even the two professors at the side felt that the development of the matter was rather strange.
The two professors were incredibly clear about Chu Qingyan’s level.
He would only be considered a genius in comparison to ordinary people.
However, compared with the elites, he could only do so much.
He did not have three heads and six arms. How could he possibly forge a one-piece armor and develop two other technological breakthroughs in two months?
Even a genius like Wu Mo had spent nearly five months completing two technological breakthroughs.
There had to be something fishy going on.
Wu Mo noticed how bizarre it was too, but he could not figure it out.
Nevertheless, he was not worried about any problems.
Even with the blacksmith system’s support, it had still been quite difficult for him to develop two technical projects in five months. To complete the projects as soon as possible, he had spent countless nights in the forging space, sweating. One could say that he had been possessed by the king of scrolls.
Moreover, he also had access to the backtrack function, high-quality equipment, and various auxiliary effects.
Even then, he could only work so fast.
Unless the Chu Qingyan knew some kind of cloning technique, his achievements were improbable.
Rather than thinking about all that, it was better to think about how he had cheated.
Wu Mo immediately turned to look at Academician Xu and smiled. “Academician Xu, are you worried?”
The surrounding people saw that Wu Mo was still full of confidence at this time, and they could not help but praise him in their hearts. In the face of an unexpected situation, Wu Mo was still so calm and composed.
Xu Wuyue laughed at Wu Mo’s question too.
Although Chu Qingyan was strange in every way, he had more confidence in Wu Mo.
Xu Wuyue immediately said, “Hehe, as long as the people of the Red Heart province don’t have your techniques, I would be worried about them!”
Hearing this, Wu Mo was instantly amused.
He thought Academician Xu was worried about him, but it seemed like he was overthinking.
The attendees around him also smiled and nodded. They were aware of Wu Mo’s strength. Even if Chu Qingyan, who had left the White River province and joined Red Heart, tormented them, they would still be able to deal with him.
He was not Wu Mo’s match either.
“By the way, there are two more things I need to tell you in advance.”
Academician Xu suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to Wu Mo.
The Spirit Wave Sword has already been approved by the emergency channel, and the mass production plan is being implemented. The workshop is also being built. With the military leaders’ attention, it probably won’t take long for it to be done.”
Wu Mo’s eyes lit up when he heard the good news.
The speed of mass production this time was over two times faster than that of the Invisibility Armor. It seemed that the higher-ups in the military had also seen the future applications of the Spirit Wave Sword.
“That’s good. If there are any problems or difficulties, you can contact me at any time. Early mass production is a good thing for everyone.”
The core attendees around him nodded.
Now, the fifth Research Department was in charge of the mass production of two pieces of equipment, and it was being carried out in an orderly manner. They never had this ability before.
“One more thing. Wu Mo submitted a paper a few days ago regarding the Spirit Wave Sword. It’s time to publish it. Ultimately, this is an illustrious matter, so we have to let everyone know that we have a genius blacksmith in the capital,” old Wen, who had been sitting silently at the side, immediately reminded him.
Old Wen’s comprehensive thoughts made Wu Mo a little helpless.
He had wanted to intentionally keep a low profile, but it seemed that he would not be able to do so in the near future.
“Ahem, there’s no problem with publishing it, but it’s only limited to Wu Mo and the White River province’s R&D personnel. Only they can read it for free. Also, we can change the individual signature to the entire R&D team. We can’t be too formal.”
After the discussion, Xu Wuyue immediately stood up.
“Alright, that’s all I have to say for today. Meeting adjourned!”
Soon, everyone got up and left. After Wu Mo talked with Academician Xu and the two professors about some work, he got up and left the meeting room too.
On the way to the laboratory, he was in a good mood as he gazed at the grass and flowers on the flower beds on either side of the road. He was very much looking forward to the Nine Provinces’ Annual Exchange Conference that would be held in a few months.
When the time came, he wanted to ask the guy named Chu Qingyan why he left the fifth Research Department. He also wanted to see what kind of new and powerful equipment the other masters in Nine Provinces could forge.
Most importantly, however, he still wanted to talk to those master blacksmiths whom he could not meet on normal days so that he could advance to the six-star rank as soon as possible.
The higher the grade of the weapon, the harder it was for Wu Mo to forge. His current skills and knowledge were not enough to turn his dream into reality.
The reason why he could always forge Epic-grade equipment was largely due to the convenience provided by the system.
When he was forging the Invisibility Armor, it was also because the system had given him a very detailed blueprint that he already had a considerable framework in his mind. The system had even listed the materials, so he knew the complicated techniques involved.
When he was forging the Spirit Wave Sword, the system had also provided him with a lot of relevant information and a detailed plan.
It was as if the system had already laid out the road, and he just had to walk it.
The system’s existence had saved him a lot of trouble.
But Wu Mo did not want to rely on it all the time.
After all, in the current environment of spirit energy recuperation, only those who were strong enough to forge Epic equipment by themselves were qualified to be six-star blacksmiths.
