Chapter 422 - 422 Frost Star
422 Frost Star
Wu Mo lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.
“How are we going to explain our guess? If we make a mistake…”
Xu Wanqing waved her hand and said domineeringly, “So what if there’s a misunderstanding? We’ll be reprimanded at most. What do we have to lose?”
Wu Mo was a decisive person. He nodded and said, “Since you’ve thought it through, I have no problem with it. I was the original target, and I suspected that I was being framed. But since it involves the safety of so many people, it’s better to be cautious.”
“In that case, let’s report it now so that we have time to prepare. Otherwise, we might alert the enemy too soon!”
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble!” Wu Mo shook his head. “The four master blacksmiths might not be very powerful, but they contributed to the country’s foundation. Hence, each of them are protected by experienced fighters. There are at least four seven-star cultivators around them. Leaving two behind should be enough.”
When the four of them heard this, their eyes lit up, and they nodded vigorously.
Wu Mo continued, “However, it’s best to find someone else to report this matter. We might be being watched now. If we make a move, we might alert the enemy!”
“You’re right. We can’t let Chu Qingyan notice any clues and be on guard. However, how do I contact the grandmasters and gain their trust?”
“I have a way!” Wu Mo turned around.
“What is it?”
“The equipment I recently created uses some new techniques from the transcendent system. It’s what you saw before. The effect is somewhat similar to my combat boots. I’ve written a small booklet about it before and introduced a small portion of the knowledge and application of this ‘forbidden system.’ However, I reckon that the grandmasters will still have many doubts.”
“And now, they’re busy judging everyone’s equipment and Divine weapons. I guess they haven’t had time to study them. I may be writing a booklet, but we can write our doubts and requests in it. As long as the masters are loyal to the Nine Provinces, they will definitely not make it public and will cooperate with us. This way, it will be much safer.”
Xu Wanqing patted Wu Mo in excitement and praised him, “You’re really quick-witted. Let’s do it this way. Hurry up and write it, then I’ll get someone to send it over!”
“No need!”
Wu Mo raised his hand and pointed at the surveillance camera above his head. “Later, I need you guys to help me block it. No one can be sure if there are enemy spies where the masters are. Why don’t you send someone to look for them?”
“Wu Mo, you’re really cunning. Chu Qingyan is unlucky to be your enemy!” Gan Yun laughed.
“I’m just an overthinker.” Wu Mo shook his head. “I’ve made 100 million plans. It’s nothing!”
The few of them did not hear Wu Mo mention that “100 million plans” were nothing.
Very quickly, Wu Mo finished writing what he wanted to express. Then, he took out a paper tube seal and used a simple restriction rune to seal it in front of them. Their eyes lit up when they saw this.
“That’s a good move! Wu Mo, you have to teach me how to do that!”
Xu Wanqing was about to stick to Wu Mo right then, and his eyes twitched as a result. Meanwhile, Gan Yun and the others were smiling like nosy old ladies, which made him extremely embarrassed.
“Alright, alright, alright. Hurry up and get off. I can’t stand this! I’m allergic to women. Remember to keep your distance from now on, okay?”
Xu Wanqing pouted and did not believe him. She snorted lightly and said, “Hmph, I gave you a chance, but you’re useless! Don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance in the future!”
Wu Mo coughed lightly and changed the subject. “I’ve forged a few pieces of equipment for all of you. They’re all forged using the transcendent system, but they cost a lot. Do you want them?”
“Really?”
Their eyes lit up. Even the most reserved Chen Qingbai could not help but take two steps forward.
Wu Mo nodded and said, “You’ll have to pay for it yourself! I have a younger sister in high school, so it’s impossible for me to make it for free!”
“Hey! How many materials did you use? What materials did you use? We’ll pay you double and give you a forging fee. How about that?”
“Hurry up and take them out!” Xu Wanqing shouted impatiently.
Wu Mo was not worried that they would forget about their debt. With a wave of his hand, a dozen pieces of equipment appeared on the forging table.
Beads, armor, and combat boots entered their field of vision.
The equipment looked very ordinary, and even their sizes did not fit. However, none of them had any intention of underestimating the equipment.
After all, they had seen with their own eyes that the equipment Wu Mo forged could change shape and even sizes.
“What treasure is this?” Liu Ze curiously picked up a dark blue bead. It felt cold and heavy.
“This is an ice bead. I’ve named it Frost Star!”
“Frost Star… What a nice name. How do I use it?” Xu Wanqing asked curiously.
Wu Mo waved his hand, and a blue bead appeared in his hand.
“This is another Frost Star. It’s the same as the one in your hands. But before you can use these pieces of equipment, you have to first infuse your own True Essence, or rather, transcendent energy, into the equipment to completely refine its restriction core. Only then can this equipment be considered completely yours. In addition, the equipment that you’ve refined cannot be used by others. Only by removing the energy that you have left in the core of the equipment can you change the user,” Wu Mo explained, and the four of them immediately understood.
“You haven’t told me how to use this bead.”
Wu Mo laughed and said, “This Frost Star can produce a Frost Halo upon activation. This Frost Halo has both physical and freezing damage. It can reduce the speed of enemies within its range and force them to be repelled by a Frost Field. If your reactions aren’t too slow, you can take this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to your enemy. With the enemy slowed down and the repulsion disrupting their movements, it won’t be difficult to kill them!”
“Gasp!”
Gasps of cold air rang out in the room.
“Good heavens, those who have no idea about this will end up in a miserable state if they’re attacked by this thing!”
Wu Mo nodded and said, “This equipment is used for self-defense. It’s just that my current level of research on restrictions is still low. If I can get this Divine weapon to possess spirituality, it will activate as soon as danger approaches. That’s the performance of a Divine weapon!”
They were stunned by Wu Mo’s idea. If they had such a piece of equipment, once they encountered danger, the Divine weapon would automatically alert them and attack. Then, not only would it repel the enemy, but it would also slow the enemy down. Just thinking about it was wonderful.
