Chapter 272 - 272 Acquaintance
272 Acquaintance
As for Wu Mo, if he were to reveal his true strength, he would definitely be poached by the various leaders or transferred to their organizations with special privileges.
When the Invisibility Armor and the Spirit Wave Sword were made, it caused a great shock in Jingdu. However, the leaders and people in charge of the military regions, as well as leaders above the major general level, rarely paid attention to these things. Therefore, most of the people present did not know who had developed the Spirit Wave Sword and the Invisibility Armor.
Xu Wuyue’s plan was revolved around this.
Xu Wuyue looked at Elder Song’s disappearing back and thought, ‘I realize that you’re so calm now because you don’t know how strong Wu Mo is. If you find out, I’m afraid you’ll poach him before the exhibition is over!
“For safety’s sake, I won’t show off until the last moment!’
If it were not for the fact that Wu Mo had to attend the exhibition and that it would be beneficial for him to broaden his knowledge, Xu Wuyue would not have let Wu Mo show up at all.
“Elder Song has white hair and a ruddy complexion. He’s almost 70 years old, but his body’s still so strong.”
Professor Tan had fallen silent for a moment. He only spoke after he calmed down.
“Elder Song broke through six years ago and became a seven-star blacksmith. His spirit energy has to be vast and powerful. It’s not just empty talk that one can extend one’s life by breaking through to seven stars.”
Xu Wuyue’s expression was full of respect. Although he had reached peak six stars, he was still far from another breakthrough. If he did not have special opportunities, he would not be able to achieve it in his life.
It was precisely because of this challenge that in the 100 years of the Nine Provinces’ history, seven-star cultivators and blacksmiths were as rare as phoenix feathers and Qilin horns.
Although a six-star blacksmith was already worthy of the t.i.tle of a master, there was still an insurmountable distance from the true peak.
Wu Mo, who was standing at the side, was also excited to see the legendary Elder Song.
Academician Xu looked around. When he saw many familiar eyes in the exhibition, he immediately planned to bring Wu Mo around to get to know the leaders.
“Wu Mo, let’s go. I’d like you to meet an old friend!”
Xu Wuyue blinked and quickly walked toward the crowd.
Although Wu Mo did not understand Academician Xu’s thoughts, he still followed him.
This exhibition affected many organizations and important figures. Anyone who was qualified to attend this exhibition would not refuse to see White River’s latest research results and the excellent seeds among the contestants.
Therefore, at the beginning of the exhibition, many excellent blacksmiths had presented their proudest research results as they planned to show off their skills in the next exhibition.
As for the leaders, they would use their spare time to get to know each other and develop their connections.
In the exhibition area that was the size of a football field, thousands of staff members kept watch at all times. To ensure safety, everything was in perfect order.
“Come Wu Mo, this is the mayor of Jin City, Lord Hou Yan.”
“Greetings, Mayor.”
“And this is the commander of North China’s second district, Lord Kang Hong!
“h.e.l.lo, Commander Kang.”
Soon, Xu Wuyue and Wu Mo walked through the crowd and greeted the major generals.
However, Wu Mo was not very good at conversing. He could not find any topics to talk about aside from greeting them.
Yet, Academician Xu did not notice the change in Wu Mo’s expression. He introduced Wu Mo to many big shots, including many old acquaintances.
For instance, Bai Li, the Hunter Bureau’s director, and Chu Li, the City Defense Army’s captain, were chatting in front of them.
Their eyes lit up when they saw Wu Mo.
Although their department had only gotten two or three pieces of the first batch of resources for the Invisibility Armor’s production, the impact was obvious.
It was especially so for the City Defense Army that Chu Li was in. The three Invisibility Armors were now being wors.h.i.+pped by the soldiers like G.o.ds. They were only qualified to wear them when they were carrying out dangerous missions. Moreover, they had to burn incense and take a bath before wearing them so that the armor would not be damaged at all.
Wu Mo’s status was almost higher than his, the head captain.
The Hunter Bureau was also very effective now. With the Invisibility Armors, they could deal a fatal blow to other killers before they were discovered, which greatly improved their efficiency.
However, the Hunter Bureau did not have as much work as the City Defense Army, and they did not utilize armor as often.
However, after the two leaders saw the effects of the equipment, they looked forward to the ma.s.s production of the Spirit Wave Sword even more.
As such, when they saw Wu Mo, it was like seeing a family member.
“Comrade Wu Mo, long time no see. You look a little haggard. Are you in some kind of trouble? I’ve told you before that the City Defense Army will always be your s.h.i.+eld. If you have any problems, you can contact me anytime.”
Chu Li, who was usually cold and silent, immediately went up to Wu Mo after spotting him. His words of concern came like a machine gun.
The corners of Bai Li’s mouth could not help but twitch. However, to obtain the Spirit Wave Sword as soon as possible, he hurried over too.
Seeing both of their concerned expressions, Wu Mo did not know whether to laugh or cry. “It’s nothing. I just haven’t had enough rest lately. I’m not in any trouble.”
Finding an opportunity, Bai Li immediately took advantage of it and said, “How can you not rest well? You usually use your brain too much at work. What if you don’t rest well and your body collapses?”
“Alright, I understand. Thank you for your concern.”
Although Wu Mo was a little speechless, he still thanked him politely.
“Ahem, Wu Mo, the exhibition is about to start. Let’s go.”
Academician Xu, who was standing on the side, could not stand it anymore. He immediately urged Wu Mo so that he could pull him away.
Chu Li was slightly disappointed, but he still waved his hand. “If you have time in the future, you’re welcome to visit the City Defense Station as a guest!”
“The Hunter Bureau is quite big. You’re welcome to come over anytime!”
Xu Wuyue was furious when he saw the two of them echoing each other.
He was a core figure in the Research Department, but now, he was not even a graduate student in those two individuals’ eyes.
Wu Mo and Xu Wuyue walked past in a hurry. When they pa.s.sed by some familiar people, those who knew Wu Mo winked at him. Even though they had talked a lot, they wanted to make a deeper impression. They hoped that they could get the latest equipment as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, it was two in the afternoon.
As melodious and pure music played, the exhibition held by the White River province officially began.
The blacksmiths who had come to partic.i.p.ate in the exhibition immediately returned to their seats. The staff and the security guards in charge of the venue retreated and occupied all the entrances to ensure the attendees’ safety.
