Chapter 364 - 364 The Test Begins
364 The Test Begins
The Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear in front of him was simply too perfect. Whether it was the ergonomic design or the seamless exoskeleton armor, every part of it revealed an exquisite atmosphere.
It was hard to imagine how a young man like Wu Mo had managed to reach this level.
In his impression, unless it was a master blacksmith who was stubborn in his heart and overly obsessed with equipment development, he would not spend so much time polishing a piece of equipment.
Although it had been less than half a year since Wu Mo had developed the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear, the equipment that appeared in front of him made him feel as if it was as rich as wine that had been stored for many years.
Outside the open-air warehouse, the surroundings were so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The security personnel guarding the surroundings could hardly move their eyes away from the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear.
The expressions of the three lieutenants were more and more interesting. They were like children who had obtained their long-awaited toy and had already lost their self-control.
“Ahem, Lieutenant Generals, the individual combat test is about to begin. Please follow me to the rooftop to watch the battle.”
Elder Huang was the first to react. He saw that the three leaders were silent like statues, so he immediately reminded them in a low voice.
“Oh… Oh, okay!”
Lu Yuansheng’s eyes flickered, and his face was still filled with shock.
Soon, the four of them walked toward the building that was only a few dozen meters away from the open-air warehouse.
The three leaders looked back with every step they took as if they were reluctant to leave.
Seeing the leaders acting as if they were possessed, Elder Huang found it a little funny.
A piece of equipment that represented the latest smithing technique had changed them into different people.
They no longer had the slightest heroic bearing and the vigorous demeanor of great generals.
However, Elder Huang still admired Wu Mo a lot.
To be able to make the three lieutenants think of him so much with his own strength, he could be considered to have extraordinary abilities.
In addition, Wu Mo was able to improve the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear to such perfection within a month. This meant that Wu Mo was a person with real means.
Soon, the four of them entered the building and took the elevator to the sixth-floor rooftop.
When they pushed the door open and stepped onto the rooftop, the three of them realized that Elder Huang had already finished setting up the place.
Not only did they have tables and chairs that were convenient for watching the competition, there was also a temporary defense array on the rooftop, and several six-star cultivators were stationed around it.
It made the place extremely safe.
“Elder Huang, you’ve put in a lot of effort.”
Shen Hongyuan nodded his head in satisfaction. He was also a little touched.
Now, it seemed that their decision to go to the capital’s military armory and watch the competition had been the right one.
This trip to the capital not only gave him a sense of security, but he could also watch the test up close and find an opportunity to talk to Wu Mo. It was killing two birds with one stone.
The few of them took their seats by the guardrail on the roof. From this angle, they could see the open-air warehouse below, and their view was constantly wide and clear.
They did not have to worry about missing any details.
The few of them looked down. At this moment, outside the door of the open-air warehouse, Lone Wolf had already dismantled his right artificial limb.
“Get ready to start. You just need to do it the same way you did the last time. You don’t have to deliberately control a certain function.”
Wu Mo handed the palm-sized white remote control to Lone Wolf, who was sitting beside him, before he whispered his instructions.
“No problem.” Lone Wolf nodded and said excitedly.
Then, he held onto the back of a chair and stood up with some difficulty.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on him, wanting to see the amazing wearing function of the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear.
Lone Wolf’s expression revealed his determination. He directly pressed the remote control for the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear one meter away.
Soon, the surrounding people heard the sound of electric currents.
The next second, the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear in front of him seemed to be guided by something and automatically disassembled into countless pieces.
Then, like magnets, they attached themselves to Lone Wolf’s thighs, chest, and arms.
Sensing the long-lost comfort from all over his body, Lone Wolf subconsciously closed his eyes and opened his arms at the same time. It was as if he was embracing the body of the goddess of fate.
Before everyone’s gaze, Lone Wolf, who had originally been wearing simple clothes, was now covered in gray exoskeleton armor from top to bottom.
In just a few seconds, only his head was left exposed.
At the same time, his body also grew from 1.8 meters to 2.2 meters.
The Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear seemed to be tailor-made for Lone Wolf as it left him without the slightest feeling of bulkiness and inconvenience.
Lu Yuansheng noticed that the appearance of the improved mobile armor on him seemed to be a little different from the first time he saw it.
He could not help but clap his hands in admiration.
Over the past month, Wu Mo had not only solved the internal problems of the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear, but he had also carefully polished the shape of the protective armor.
Now, as Lone Wolf was wearing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear, Lu Yuansheng did not find it bulky at all like he did the first time. He even had the illusion that this Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear had been tailor-made for Lone Wolf.
“The surprise Wu Mo has brought us is really big.”
Zhuang Zhe, who was sitting on the couch, was full of praise. He also felt that the 12 Special Forces members might not be a match for Lone Wolf.
Lone Wolf, who had been wearing the artificial limb earlier, gave people the feeling that he was a hero who was born at the wrong time. Although his appearance never changed, he had given off an aura of someone who was about to die.
But now, Lone Wolf, who was wearing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear, no longer had the slightest feeling of confusion and frustration. Instead, he had a kind of self-confidence that allowed him to look down on the world and keep calm.
It was as if the 12 Special Forces members were not qualified to be his enemies but were just random soldiers that he could easily defeat.
“Interesting. It looks like the test that’s about to begin will be very exciting.”
Shen Hongyuan also noticed the change in Lone Wolf’s expression, and his face immediately revealed an expression of anticipation.
At two o’clock in the afternoon, the individual combat test for the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear commenced as scheduled.
Wu Mo felt a little nervous as he watched Lone Wolf walk slowly toward the open-air warehouse.
“Lone Wolf, the stage is set. You can go all out!” he muttered expectantly.
The deputy director, Cao Jianzhong, and a few senior R&D staff immediately took out their video recording equipment and began to film.
In the open-air warehouse, 12 members of the Special Forces in standard armor stood straight in place.
A moment later, the sound of wind breaking came from above their heads.
Before they could react, Lone Wolf had successfully landed more than 10 meters away from them.
“D*mn, Lord Lone Wolf’s appearance is a little cool,” the Special Forces member with the codename “Rat” said to his companions in surprise when he saw Lord Lone Wolf falling from the sky.
“The Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear looks really powerful. No one should go easy on it in this fancy game,” Boar, whose figure was slightly stronger than the other members, reminded in a timely manner.
