Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

391 Focal Point

Xu Wanqing pursed her lips and raised her head with concern.

Xu Wuyue smiled and nodded. “Yes, they’ve been issuing more urgent tasks these last two days. I need to complete them before the conference starts, and I’m almost done.”

Xu Wanqing nodded. Not wanting to worry her father, she immediately turned off the lights in the private forging room and walked out the door with her father. Soon after, she returned to her dorm.

The night was dark, and the entire Fifth Research Department fell into silence.

After a long time, light began to gradually seep into the black and unchanging sky.

It was not until the first ray of light appeared on the horizon that everyone started to wake up.

Wu Mo woke up at 7.30 am as usual.

Since he was traveling to Red Heart to participate in the exchange conference today, he had to pack up the items required for his registration before 9.00 am and rush to the Fifth Research Department’s gate at around 9.30 am. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ

Wu Mo had carefully chosen a set of clothes that looked good but also kept him warm. It was a step away from his usual athletic style.

He wore a dark gray mid-length woolen coat with a linen turtleneck sweater inside and picked out a pair of straight trousers with velvet lining. He then paired the ensemble with grayish-white sneakers.

After putting on his new clothes, Wu Mo walked to the mirror and admired himself for a while. Finding no problems with his outfit, he prepared to visit the cafeteria for breakfast.

The blacksmiths who had been invited to the conference needed to prepare their own forging equipment, including casting paper and pen as well as their own furnace.

Although Wu Mo did not prepare anything in advance, his Interspatial Ring was already like a treasure chest. It contained all the resources he had accumulated over the past year.

Among them were high-quality casting paper and brushes, along with a high-quality furnace with ten fire outlets.

His equipment might not be as good as the equipment of others, but Premium-grade equipment was enough for him to display his full strength. i????????????ea????.＆nbsp;????????????

Of course, Epic-grade equipment provided more benefits, such as increased forging speed and other effects.

However, there was a saying that poor students often had more stationery than they needed, so he did not have any additional forging equipment.

Wu Mo was still eating breakfast in the cafeteria when he received a message from Academician Xu at 8.30 am.

Wu Mo knew that Academician Xu must have received a mission from his superiors. He had to deliver the five young blacksmiths from White River to Red heart safely.

As such, Academician Xu was very busy during this period of time and extremely focused on the exchange conference.

[Okay, Academician Xu, I’ll be there soon.]

After he replied to the message, Wu Mo quickly finished the rest of the food in his bowl and got up to pay the bill.

On the other side, the five cultivators responsible for escorting the blacksmiths had also arrived.

Two hours ago, their military higher-ups had already blocked off some of the roads in White River province.

That would prevent any mishaps from happening on this journey.

Relevant security personnel were also being deployed, and City Defense troops in uniform could be seen everywhere on the road.

“It’s really lively today. This is my first time seeing so many people from the City Defense Army.” Zhangsun Long looked out of the window curiously.

“The higher-ups in the Military Department will definitely set up defenses in advance. After all, the exchange event is the focus of the entire country. How can the White River province make any mistakes at such a critical time?”

Sitting in the back of a special military vehicle, a middle-aged man with a strong body and dark skin spoke as he glanced at the surprised Zhangsun Long.

He was Guan Hu, one of the five cultivators in charge of escorting the blacksmiths. He was also known as the Tiger when it came to close combat.

“We’re finally here. I’ve been in the car for six hours since we left the border city, Ling County.”

The next person to speak was a man in a dark blue shirt with six full cloud patterns embroidered on the chest.

The latter appeared slightly helpless because he had been chosen to be one of the cultivators to escort the blacksmiths.

He had rushed over from Ling County, a city at the border of White River. After the six- to seven-hour journey, he was feeling a little numb.

“Wen Yuan, you’re only good at long-range attacks, so why have you been chosen as one of the escorts? It’s truly puzzling.” Guan Hu turned around and asked curiously as he looked at the dazed Wen Yuan.

“How would I know what the military leaders are thinking?”

Wen Yuan was not in a good mood at the moment, so he had no intention of explaining anything. He only gave Guan Hu a curt response, which did not clear up his doubts.

Guan Hu wanted to say something else, but Bald Eagle who was sitting in the front seat spoke first and interrupted him.

“So what if he’s only good at long-range attacks? If you think that long-range attacks aren’t effective, we can have a friendly match.”

Guan Hu smiled awkwardly when he noticed Bald Eagle’s unfriendly gaze.

“Hehe… I didn’t mean anything by it. I was just curious.”

He shrunk back, and a hint of fear flashed in the depths of his pupils.

Guan Hu believed that among the cultivators of the same rank in the White River province, there were no more than three people who could beat him in close combat.

Unless there was a great difference in strength between him and his opponent, he would not be at an immediate disadvantage even if he fought cultivators in the beginning stage of seven stars.

Since he was strong, Guan Hu always had a confident look on his face.

However, when he faced Bald Eagle, his pride was greatly diminished.

Everyone knew that Bald Eagle was powerful, and his long-range attacks were several times stronger than Guan Hu’s.

Guan Hu did not even have the confidence to dodge his Magic Crystal Cannon bombardment, let alone defeat him in close combat.

Bald Eagle embarrassed Guan Hu in front of everyone, but the latter quickly fell silent.

The air in the military vehicle gradually became heavy.

They traveled on the road for a few more minutes before a slightly rough voice came from the driver’s seat.

“We’re here. Get out of the car.”

Lone Wolf stopped the car, turned off the engine, and pulled the hand brake. He then got out of the military vehicle first.

Several military vehicles that were escorting them gradually stopped and lined up in front of the Research Department’s gate.

...

It was nine in the morning.

The entire Research Department was bustling with activity, as if it was New Year’s.

Countless researchers stood on both sides of the cultural square as they anxiously looked out the gate.

At the center of the cultural square, there were seven or eight core personnel of the Research Department led by Xu Wuyue.

Standing on either side of the square were five young blacksmiths who were about to head to the Red Heart province to participate in the exchange conference.

Numerous cultivators were also guarding the Research Department’s entrance and exit, and there were dozens of patrol posts.
