Chapter 98 Regrets And Gains
Chapter 98 Regrets And Gains
"Come on, it's time to go back." Wu Mo retracted his gaze and said softly.
"Hmm..."
Jiang Mengyao nodded and followed Wu Mo.
Taking advantage of the night, Wu Mo and Jiang Mengyao walked side by side as they headed toward the academy.
Tomorrow was their graduation day. The dormitory that had accompanied them for three years, the academy, and their classmates, would forever be a memory.
Thinking of that, Wu Mo felt a little reluctant to part with her.
Jiang Mengyao, who was walking beside him, seemed to have something on her mind. She kept her head down and kicked the stones on the side of the road without a word.
Wu Mo could sense that she was a little down at this moment.
The breeze blew slowly, rustling the leaves on the side of the road.
Meanwhile, the full moon hung in the air, illuminating the road that the two of them were walking on.
"We'll be graduating tomorrow. Maybe... we'll never see each other again in the future."
Jiang Mengyao sighed and broke the silence.
Wu Mo looked up at the stars in the sky and gently said, "Yes, three years went by just like that. Although it's not a pity, it feels like time is flying, and we can't hold on to anything."
After he spoke, Wu Mo turned his head to look at Jiang Mengyao.
Seeing that Mengyao was a little sad, Wu Mo immediately changed his mood. He smiled and comforted her, "Don't think about it too much. We still have a long way to go after we leave the academy. Youth is our memory, but the future is also the continuation of our childhood dreams, isn't it?"
Jiang Mengyao was slightly stunned. She raised her head to look at Wu Mo's clearly-defined side profile.
Her heart skipped a beat.
The two of them would be separated tomorrow, and they might never see each other again.
Her relationship with the person she had been secretly in love with for three years would probably end here.
Wu Mo had been very concerned about her during this period of time, but up until now, the two of them had not made anything official.
It was a pity.
A moment later, the forest-lined path once again fell into silence. Horse carriages would occasionally pass by.
The two of them walked at the same pace, and the sound of their footsteps echoed on the road. It did not take long for them to return to their dormitories.
The male and female dormitories of the Divine Arms Academy were roughly 200 meters apart.
Wu Mo and Jiang Mengyao stopped at the entrance of the male dormitory building.
"Rest early. See you tomorrow," Wu Mo said with sleepy eyes.
Jiang Mengyao nodded with a smile. Looking at his cute side, she pursed her lips and said, "Good night!"
After parting with Jiang Mengyao at the entrance, Wu Mo watched her return to her dormitory.
Only then did he take some heavy steps and return to the single dormitory.
Today's graduation assessment had consumed a large amount of his stamina.
If it were not for the fact that he had consciously run to train his energy not long after he transmigrated, he probably would not have excelled in the test so easily.
Pushing the door open and entering the dorm, Wu Mo looked at the familiar and warm living room. He let go of all his fatigue and sat down on the couch.
He leaned back to rest for a while, then began to recall what he had experienced today.
Perhaps it was because he was too tired, but he slowly closed his eyes, allowing his thoughts to become clearer.
In today's design assessment, he had defeated all his opponents with an overwhelming victory, but that also exposed most of Mjolnir's effects.
However, his harvest was also quite bountiful!
The first place scholarship set up by the Divine Arms Academy was ¥100,000, plus a piece of Premium-grade equipment. That piece of equipment with good effects was currently lying in a box with a certificate and a ribbon.
Of course, these gains were not very valuable to Wu Mo. Nevertheless, to personally achieve such achievements was something to be proud of.
As for the fame that came with it, it was not considered a positive benefit to Wu Mo.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and silently chanted in his heart.
In a flash, a light blue interface appeared in midair.
[System notification. Mjolnir, which you have forged, was of shocking influence in the graduation assessment. The direct influence has earned you a total of 185,000 points. The accumulation of indirect influence has not been finalized, and it is being calculated.
[Your current accumulated points are 234,586, which is a pretty good fortune!
[System notification. Your current strength has exceeded 99% of your peers as a blacksmith. However, you are still lacking in some fields related to forging. The system suggests that the host exchange points for books related to the relevant fields in the store to replenish his knowledge.]
Looking at the light blue system interface that appeared before him, Wu Mo was a little surprised.
"Gasp... I didn't expect to obtain nearly 200,000 points in one night!"
He himself did not expect the accumulated number to be so terrifying.
It seemed that his habit of showing off in front of others had to persist for a long time.
In Wu Mo's opinion, points were a more important resource than money.
For example, if one wanted to forge equipment of Legendary or higher grade, one had to use one kind of material: Legendary Essence.
However, there was no single direct source for it in Shanglin City right now. Even if people had money, they could only make an appointment or transfer the goods from other places. Moreover, there was a high probability that they would have to participate in an auction for it.
Its price would usually be above ¥3,000,000.
Meanwhile, in the store, he only needed 15,000 points to make an exchange for the material!
Not only could he get it immediately, but he could also purchase it three times in a month. With that comparison, the value of the points was obvious.
The items in the system's store were not only safe, but also very private.
There, he could even directly buy high-level equipment. The only drawback was that there were fewer types.
After accumulating more than 200,000 points in one go, Wu Mo needed to think about how to plan and buy the things he needed more practically.
Thinking of that, Wu Mo began to estimate his current strength.
Mjolnir had come from the blueprint in the system, and Wu Mo never had to think of the design.
However, the increase in his own strength was definitely one of the influencing factors that allowed him to successfully forge it in such a short period of time.
If he did not have the blueprint provided by the system now, he could completely rely on the Divine-grade Forging Space to forge Epic equipment on his own.
Even if he did not rely on any of the system's functions, it would not be too difficult for him to forge top-tier equipment.
In Wu Mo's opinion, experience and knowledge were the most precious resources.
As thought about that, he slowly stood up, stretched his body, and rubbed his sleepy eyes.
He walked to the bathroom to wash up before he dragged his tired body back to his bed.
Tomorrow, he only needed to go to school to take a graduation photo. That would be the end of his three-year academic career.
"It's not easy to graduate. Let's rest tonight."
Looking at the yellowish ceiling, Wu Mo closed his eyes.
While he lay in bed, his mind gradually relaxed. Not long after, he fell asleep with even breathing.
But at this time, Wu Mo had no idea that the discussion about him on the Internet was still brewing.
