Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Chapter 133 Questioning Wu Mo’s Strength



Seeing Wu Mo's serious expression, a few of the team members smiled. "Not bad. You speak as if it's true. Then tell me, what kind of concealment effect does this camouflage suit of yours have?"

Zhou Ning leaned over slightly and observed the camouflage suit carefully, but she still did not discover anything extraordinary.

"Actually, this armor of mine can become invisible!" Wu Mo said in a sonorous tone. He was just about to demonstrate it to everyone when Academician Xu stood up and interrupted him.

"Wu Mo, do you realize what you're saying? Armor improvement can't be made out of carelessness. You're bragging about the suit's effect, which is simply nonsense!"

Seeing that Academician Xu was livid, the students immediately shut their mouths.

At that moment, Xu Wuyue stared at Wu Mo and said in a serious tone, "I know you haven't been in the Research Department for long and haven't adapted to this place yet, but you can't tell tall tales about your work just because you didn't perform well!"

Wu Mo only found the situation somewhat inexplicable as he faced Academician Xu's rebuke.

He was telling the truth and not exaggerating at all. Why would they accuse him of spouting nonsense?

Besides, the academician's words made it seem that he had done something bad and needed to apologize to everyone.

With that in mind, Wu Mo immediately said, "Academician Xu, I don't feel that there's anything wrong with what I've done. Furthermore, the armor that I've forged does have the functions that I mentioned earlier. If you don't believe me, you can test it right here."

Wu Mo's response silenced all the present people.

His team members never thought he would dare contradict Academician Xu in front of everyone. Moreover, he even doubled down on his armor's outstanding performance.

It was comparable to not shedding tears at a funeral until seeing the coffin.

When he saw Wu Mo's serious expression and the camouflage uniform in his hands, Academician Xu felt a surge of anger.

He immediately slammed the table and turned around to leave.

He did not want to be in the presence of such a disobedient graduate student who insisted on doing whatever he wanted.

Professor Liu, who was sitting at the side, saw Xu Wuyue turn around to leave. He was worried that Minister Wei would be unhappy because of this, so he immediately pulled Xu Wuyue's arm and tried to dissuade him. "Hey... Old Xu, why are you arguing about this with an insensible graduate student? Wu Mo is young, after all. It's inevitable that he'll be arrogant. You can slowly change that in the future."

Xu Wuyue's anger did not subside after Professor Liu pulled him back. However, since there were leaders present, he had no choice but to return to his seat.

Nevertheless, his expression remained a little unpleasant.

At the end of the day, he was the one who had personally recruited Wu Mo into the Research Department. Most of the higher-ups knew that.

Now that Wu Mo was performing so badly, how could he not be angry?

Seeing that Xu Wuyue had gradually calmed down, Professor Liu subconsciously glanced at Minister Wei.

Once he realized that the leader's expression was still indifferent as if he was not affected, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Right then, everyone looked at Wu Mo as he stood in front of the long table. Everyone had different emotions.

Feng Qi was a little worried. He was afraid that Wu Mo would affect his own future research path because of this.

Lai Hua, on the other hand, had a smile on his face as he stared at Wu Mo.

Meanwhile, Chu Qingyan, who was standing next to Professor Liu, had a cold expression on his face.

He felt that someone like Wu Mo did not deserve to be called a blacksmith. Not only did he tarnish the profession, but he also wasted everyone's time.

Standing nearby, Zhou Ning had mixed feelings. She looked at the leader, wanting to know how Minister Wei was going to handle the matter.

"In any case, every student who passes the examination will have to undergo a comprehensive test for their work. Since Wu Mo thinks that his armor is qualified, it won't hurt to look at the test results!" Wei Lan said with a calm expression and gave Zhou Ning a look.

Zhou Ning nodded immediately and proceeded to prepare the test for Wu Mo's armor in three areas.

'Although he knows that Wu Mo's work is unlikely to pass the examination, he still feels that things are not that simple. Wu Mo is ultimately a member of the team. If his work really doesn't meet the standards, would he dare contradict Academician Xu?'

"I can accept the test at any time!"

Wu Mo took a step back and gestured for them to proceed.

'Sigh...'

Zhou Ning sighed in her heart. She suppressed the complicated thoughts in her mind and walked straight toward Wu Mo.

When she casually picked up Wu Mo's work, she realized that the armor was unexpectedly light.

Her red lips parted slightly. She realized that this suit was probably not as simple as it appeared.

Either way, the test was about to reveal the truth. She did not say anything and promptly walked to the defense detection device. Then, she placed the camouflage suit inside.

Zhou Ning had a feeling that the armor was not ordinary, but the fabric's soft texture made her worry that the suit would be destroyed by the testing equipment.

The defense test would definitely involve a simulated attack, so Wu Mo's suit would probably be beyond recognition after the test if it was made of pure fabric.

The worry in her heart flashed past, and she schooled her expression once again.

'Hmph... when you accepted the mission, you still had a confident look on your face. Now, you'll have a taste of your own medicine.'

Thinking of this, Zhou Ning threw the lightweight suit in without hesitation and pressed the machine's switch.

A buzzing sound rang out, and several members of the team looked at the machine's screen with curiosity. Professor Liu, however, was still discussing something with Chu Qingyan.

Xu Wuyue narrowed his eyes slightly as if he did not care about Wu Mo's results anymore.

Beep beep...

They then heard the sound of the test's completion.

Zhou Ning, who was standing next to the machine, was kind of nervous.

Chi...

The exit of the test machine opened, and the armor forged by Wu Mo was transported out by the conveyor belt.

Everyone was surprised to find that the seemingly fragile suit was undamaged.

While they were still surprised, they looked at the screen and found a line of words that had never appeared on the screen before.

Ding...

[Defense test completed. Calculating. Estimated Time: Five minutes...]

"Tsk... What's going on?"

Lai Hua, who had been planning to watch a show, instantly complained when he discovered that the device had not shown the results.

The others did not see anything happen either. They were confused for a moment.

Even Zhou Ning, who knew the test machine like the back of her hand, was a little shocked.

Calculating?

Normally, the results of a test would appear quickly.

Separate calculations would only be required if the test data was too low or too high and could not be calculated using a normal template.

Zhou Ning's face turned a little pale when that occurred to her. She did not know what kind of work Wu Mo had cast, and she could not come up with an easy conclusion.

Since she was unsure, Zhou Ning could only turn around and look at the three leaders in their seats, asking for their help.
