Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Chapter 381 A Letter From Liao Dongcheng

"I'm sorry, Academician Xu only arranged for me to pick you up. I'm not sure what's going on over there," the liaison said apologetically.

"Alright..."

Wu Mo replied softly, but he became even more curious.

The two escorts beside Wu Mo were focused on what was happening outside. They were guarding against any danger that could come at a moment's notice.

Meanwhile, Wu Mo leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

The armory was located in the Baihe District. It was at least two hours away from the Fifth Research Department by car, so the military vehicle sped across the highway in the emergency lane.

Trees lined the sides of the road. However, they looked a little bleak as they were left with bare branches, and their thick trunks were covered in a layer of white snow.

At 3.10 pm, the military vehicle carrying Wu Mo finally reached the Fifth Research Department.

The moment Wu Mo saw the magnificence of the Research Department's main entrance and the two armed guards again, he had a familiar yet somewhat strange feeling.

He had stayed in the Fifth Research Department for more than half a year, and he was quite familiar with the surrounding grass and trees.

The armory had strict rules, and work was carried out in an orderly manner.

In comparison, the Fifth Research Department occupied a larger area, which gave people a sense of freedom.

Wu Mo no longer felt anxious, and he felt like he was back home.

"Academician Xu should be in his office. Do you want to meet him right now or go back and rest first?" The liaison followed Wu Mo and asked politely after they went through the procedures at the entrance.

"I'm not tired yet. Let's go now." Wu Mo stretched his arms and said cheerfully.

Soon, the two of them walked toward Academician Xu's office building. On the way, Wu Mo continued to wonder what kind of trouble Academician Xu had encountered.

After a while, the two of them took the elevator to the research building's seventh floor, where Academician Xu's office was.

The liaison then reached out and knocked on the office door. Before long, Academician Xu opened it and appeared before them. He was wearing a white research coat, and he looked a little tired.

"Academician Xu, I've brought him here safely." The liaison officer gave him a salute and said respectfully.

Academician Xu subconsciously looked at Wu Mo for a moment, and a kind smile formed on his face.

"You've worked hard. Get some rest first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the liaison turned around and left.

"Long time no see. Come in, let's have a chat."

The corners of Academician Xu's mouth rose, and he immediately gestured an invite to Wu Mo.

Wu Mo was a little touched. He had a lot of things to say to Academician Xu as well, so he quickly walked in.

"Have a seat, busy man."

Xu Wuyue sat down on the couch and said to Wu Mo jokingly.

"Um... Alright."

Wu Mo appeared a little hesitant when he saw how relaxed Academician Xu was. The academician had sounded anxious when he asked him to return last night. That was why he thought that the Research Department might have encountered a difficult problem.

However, it seemed like he had misunderstood Academician Xu's intentions.please visit

"How have you been in the past two months? If it's convenient, could you share your experience in the armory with me?"

As Xu Wuyue spoke, he took out two cups and filled them with tea. He was ready to hear everything.

"It was pretty good. I learned a lot in the two months I was in the armory. Their modern equipment has broadened my horizons and also played a great role in perfecting the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear."

Wu Mo took the cup and drank some tea. Then, he immediately told Academician Xu what he had seen and heard in the armory for the past two months.

This included the shock he felt when he first entered the research facility, the functions of the various modern equipment inside, and the help he received when he completed the improvements.

"Before I went to the armory, I didn't realize that it was an organization that's polished equipment forging technology to the extreme. Whether it came to the mass production factory or management of the material warehouse, their ultimate goal was to forge equipment of better quality.

Wu Mo sighed and looked at Academician Xu. With a smile, he said, "However, I was able to successfully develop the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear because you approved my visit to the armory.

"After all, before I went there, the armory's research facility didn't have a good reputation. If I hadn't experienced it myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't have truly understood them."

Xu Wuyue smiled helplessly at Wu Mo's serious face.

"Don't give me the credit. You're the real reason for the success of this research and development, end of discussion."

"Hehe, alright."

Wu Mo scratched his head in embarrassment.

Then, he changed the subject and curiously asked, "Academician Xu, you seem quite relaxed right now. It doesn't look like you've encountered anything urgent, so why did you ask me to come back in such a hurry?"

Xu Wuyue smiled mysteriously when he saw Wu Mo's confused face.

He gently turned the cup on the coffee table before he looked up and asked, "Wu Mo, do you know what day it is today?"

"It's the 9th of January. What's the matter? Is there an important festival today?"

Wu Mo was puzzled by Academician Xu's demeanor, so he replied with uncertainty.

"How many days are there until the new year?" Xu Wuyue continued to ask.

"Twenty-one... Oh, I see!" Wu Mo answered without hesitation.

"Before he could say, "Oh, my God," something occurred to him, and he quickly understood Academician Xu's intention.

"Haha, it looks like you understand."

Seeing Wu Mo's expression of sudden realization, Xu Wuyue took a sip of tea and stood up. He then took out a letter from the locked cabinet under the computer desk.

"Here. Brigadier General Liao Dongcheng asked me to pass this to you."

Wu Mo took the envelope from Academician Xu and opened it with surprise.

[To Wu Mo,

[How are you, Wu Mo? Congratulations on your third breakthrough in the field of forging.

[According to our previous agreement, I've sent the letter of recommendation to the official organizer of the exchange conference, so you can rest assured.

[Although my rank isn't high enough for me to learn about your latest creation, I know that you completed this R&D project alone. The equipment that you've forged will definitely shock and change the current state of the forging field.

[I know you're very talented, but I'm sure it was still extremely difficult to complete the research and development of such era-defining equipment.]
