292 Easily Settled
Of course, his use of the new alloy this time was also a result of learning from the system’s documents. Not only did it inherit all of the advantages that the connecting device’s old version had, but it also enhanced two of its functions. One could say that the new alloy was very suitable for making the connecting device.
As Wu Mo thought about the new connected modules, he continued to throw materials into the furnace.
In about 10 minutes, the new alloy had been smelted.
The new version of the alloy was highly ductile, and it had a certain memory capacity. Even if it was made deformed by an external force, it would quickly return to its original state.
However, updating the alloy alone would not solve the problem of the overly complicated connecting device.
He placed the alloy solution into the crucible next to the worktable and began to cool it.
Then, Wu Mo immediately took out a set of high-quality paper from his Interspatial Ring.
He ground some ink, picked up the pen, and spread the casting paper on the white worktable. Then, he began to draw a new connecting device.
Although the old connecting device could quickly adjust the angle of the Dark Light Wings according to the sensor’s data, because each control point was only connected to one wing, it led to the entire device having thousands of connection and control points. That made it very complicated to mass produce.
However, Wu Mo now had a new perspective. He had learned a lot up to this point, and thanks to the knowledge and technology he had learned, he had improved his skills in design and forging.
This was a new type of connecting device that he had designed. Each point of connection could control 15 Dark Light Wings and adjust their angles.
The original single-point connecting device would remain in the area that the new device could not cover.
That way, the armor still maintained its stealth effect, but the original thousands of complex connecting points had been replaced by 80 integrated connecting points. The overall number had been reduced by more than 10 times.
Even so, due to the complexity of the new integrated device, the overall mass production process had only been optimized by about five times.
Wu Mo’s eyes flickered. The next moment, he flicked his wrist and the casting pen in his hand stopped. An improved design of the connecting device appeared on the paper.
After finding no problems following a slight inspection, Wu Mo immediately stepped forward and poured the cooled alloy liquid into the mold. He cast it in three parts.
The total time spent was nearly 40 minutes, and the third layer of the device was stamped into the shape and characteristics he wanted.
He then quickly installed all three layers of device. With that, the improved version of the connecting device was completed!
Looking at the integrated device in front of him, which was embedded with a pair of glowing wings and shining with colorful lights, Wu Mo felt a little excited.
He immediately put it back on the Invisibility Armor before he picked the armor up and shook it.
The built-in sensors in the armor felt the movement of the cloak, and the integrated device immediately adjusted the angle of the wings.
In the next second, the armor in Wu Mo’s hand disappeared, leaving behind only a chaotic dark purple light.
“I never thought the integrated device could control the angle of the wings at a faster speed. It looks like I had the right idea!”
Wu Mo’s eyes flickered, and he was overjoyed.
If the Invisibility Armor could be further improved, mass production would subsequently be accelerated by at least several times. Once that happened, no matter how many orders came in, the Fifth Research Department would be able to complete mass-producing them all.
Thinking of this, Wu Mo swiftly calmed his mind as his eyes were in a daze. When he regained consciousness, he was still sitting in the Level 2 laboratory not far from the workshop.
At this moment, a few assistant researchers were standing outside the laboratory, anxiously looking at the tightly shut door.
Old Wen and Assistant Cheng frowned slightly as they were also worried.
“It’s been more than 40 minutes, but there hasn’t been any movement inside. I haven’t seen Wu Mo coming out to get materials either.”
“It’s impossible to picture it in such a short time. I wonder if Mr. Wu will be able to bring us new surprises like before.”
“Sigh, let’s see. If it really doesn’t work, we can slow production down. At least we can continue to mass produce and not stop the machines!”
Several technical support staff kept discussing. Although they did not speak out loud, they did not really believe that Wu Mo could forge a new version of the connecting device in such a short time.
Just as they were discussing and planning to ask old Wen to restart the production line, the laboratory door, which had been still for a long time, opened abruptly.
Seeing this, old Wen immediately stood up and looked into the laboratory.
Right then, the tall Wu Mo was standing at the door with a gentle smile on his face. Although he looked a little tired, his self-confidence made old Wen completely relieved.
Assistant Cheng, who was standing next to old Wen, was surprised to see the Invisibility Armor in Wu Mo’s hands.
He did not expect Wu Mo to come up with an improved version of the Invisibility Armor so quickly.
A few auxiliary researchers not far away widened their eyes.
They could not believe that Wu Mo was so skilled!
“Wu Mo, you’ve worked hard. How did the improvement of the Invisibility Armor go?” Old Wen could not wait any longer and immediately asked.
He knew that it was most likely done, but Wu Mo had personally not said anything.
“Thank you for your concern, old Wen. I’m glad that I didn’t fail you. Now that the improvement work has been completed, the mass production plan can continue.”
Wu Mo wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Old Wen immediately broke into a smile while Assistant Cheng’s expression turned solemn.
To be able to improve a piece of equipment within an hour, Wu Mo’s skills were probably comparable to that of most six-star blacksmiths.
A few of the support staff immediately took over the improved Invisibility Armor and proceeded to check the data to continue production.
They were careful, and their attitude toward Wu Mo became more respectful.
Wu Mo, old Wen, and the others immediately followed. They wanted to see how much the Invisibility Armor had improved.
By the time they arrived at the workshop, several technical assistance personnel had already adjusted the data of the equipment on the production line. In a short while, the casting equipment that stored various materials was activated, and mass production resumed.
To old Wen and the other technical support staff’s surprise, the new version of the Invisibility Armor worked more than three times faster than before.
This was because the connecting device was the most complicated component in the entire Invisibility Armor. Now that the device had been improved to the integrated version, its overall speed had also doubled.
Seeing the endless production of Invisibility Armor, old Wen breathed an internal sigh of relief.
He had been worried that there would be problems in the workshop and that they would not be able to produce enough Invisibility Armor before the delivery day. He felt even more worried when he found out that there were quality problems with the armor.
