Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? - Chapter 287
287 The End of the Exhibition
The blacksmiths’ equipment display segment was still ongoing at the exhibition, but by now, most of the audience members had begun to be distracted.
It could not be helped. Wu Mo’s display had been too explosive. Other blacksmiths just seemed like a downgrade now.
As a result, the blacksmiths in the business world suffered a small loss. After all, no matter how outstanding they were, it would be difficult for them to reach Wu Mo’s heights.
Just like that, the two-hour exhibition segment slowly came to an end. A total of 60 blacksmiths had gone on stage during that period.
The fact that they were qualified to demonstrate their work indicated they were all outstanding young blacksmiths in the White River province.
!!
Under the three seven-star masters’ evaluation, one person received “perfect”, two received “outstanding”, eleven received “excellent”, twenty-eight received “good”, nine “passed”, and no one failed.
The exhibition had come to a perfect end, and the wonderful works displayed during its run refreshed many people’s view of the world.
It also allowed the leaders of many organizations to have a deeper understanding of the wonderful blacksmiths.
Unsurprisingly, Wu Mo became the most dazzling man in the room. Not only did he receive great attention from many leaders, but he also revived the Fifth Research Department’s reputation.
As expected, he won the Best New Designer Award, and the crowd invited him to the stage again.
The host asked Wu Mo about his academic views and his source of inspiration for forging equipment.
Wu Mo never enjoyed claiming credit or showing his face in public, so he only answered with a few words.
After that, it was time for the awards to be given out. Everything was progressing steadily.
Wu Mo stood upright on the stage and bashfully accepted his prize from the organizer.
He felt a slight heaviness in his hand and immediately stored the prize in his Interspatial Ring. After Wu Mo thanked the organizer, he quickly walked down the stage.
Next were the Rookie Award and the consolation prizes.
Gu Hongzhuo stood up and walked up to the stage with a cold expression. When he passed Wu Mo, he even bumped into his shoulder lightly to provoke him.
“You got lucky this time. I’ll defeat you easily next time.”
He snorted coldly and hurried up the stage.
Wu Mo, on the other hand, returned to his seat as though he did not hear him.
That guy called Gu Hongzhuo was emotionally unstable. If he kept fighting for too much credit and profit, he would not be able to go far in the future.
Therefore, Wu Mo pretended not to hear him.
Not long after, the Rookie Award and consolation prizes were presented.
After that, there was a long speech with closed eyes. After more than ten minutes, everyone left.
“Let’s go, Wu Mo. We’ll send you back.” Bald Eagle stood up and said with a smile.
Lone Wolf stood up by supporting himself on the armrest of his seat. Then he followed Wu Mo with some difficulty.
Wu Mo noticed that Lone Wolf’s injuries did not seem to be healing, and he could not help but frown.
He quickly walked to Lone Wolf’s side to help him.
Unexpectedly, Lone Wolf actually sped up and staggered away from him.
Uh…
Wu Mo was a little stunned. What was Lone Wolf doing?
“Don’t take it to heart. He’s just that prideful,” Bald Eagle explained to Wu Mo with a smile.
“Alright,” he said.
Wu Mo nodded. He looked at Lone Wolf from the back as the man staggered, and he felt a tinge of sadness.
Lone Wolf had served in the special forces for many years and completed numerous difficult missions. His strength was also outstanding. He definitely found it difficult to accept when his leg suddenly became disabled.
Even though he pretended to be fine on the surface, Wu Mo knew in his heart that a headstrong person like Lone Wolf was not as relaxed as he appeared.
The three of them left the exhibition together. Academician Xu and Professor Tan had to meet some old friends, so they planned to go back later.
Wu Mo sat in the military vehicle and watched as the exhibition building grew farther and farther away. He was still a little excited.
He had gained a lot from this trip to the exhibition.
Not only did he see many high-tech equipment, but he also saw many photos and statues of powerful cultivators and blacksmiths from the early stages of the spirit energy restoration era.
He also met Elder Song, whose name had spread far and wide, as well as many other generals and leaders.
On top of that, he gained a deeper understanding of the strength that the younger-generation blacksmiths in the White River province possessed.
Some unpleasant things like Gu Hongzhuo’s provocation, as well as Chu Qingyan’s video call and declaration of war, all made Wu Mo a little angry.
However, he received positive feedback from the exhibition and also won the title of Best New Designer.
The reward was still lying in his Interspatial Ring as he did not have time to look at it.
The driver drove the military vehicle smoothly on the road, while Wu Mo and Bald Eagle talked about the interesting things that had happened at the exhibition. They returned to the Fifth Research Department in about 20 minutes.
After Wu Mo got back to the Research Department, he parted ways with Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf.
Now that Wu Mo was back from the exhibition, their duty to protect him had come to an end.
Lone Wolf was moving on to his special mission, which Wu Mo could not ask about.
“Be careful, you two. Keep in touch when you’re free.”
Wu Mo smiled and patted Bald Eagle’s shoulder, winking at him.
“Of course, once we finish our secret mission, we’ll definitely have a few drinks with you.”
Bald Eagle grinned, and Lone Wolf nodded without saying anything.
He patted the lightsaber at his waist and contemplated for a while before thanking Wu Mo.
“You’re welcome. It’s no big deal. I’ll be happy as long as you complete your mission safely. I’ll personally cook for you when you come over next time.”
Wu Mo pointed in the villa’s direction.
“It’s a deal. You can get back to your work. We’re about to leave.”
Bald Eagle expressed his anticipation before he walked out of the Research Department with Lone Wolf.
Wu Mo’s eyes lit up as he looked at Lone Wolf’s strenuous steps.
He wanted to speed up his research and development of the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear so that Lone Wolf could recover to his peak state as soon as possible!
With that in mind, he quickened his pace and headed straight for the laboratory.
A few minutes later, he arrived at the research building and took the elevator to the top floor, returning to that familiar place.
It was already four o’clock in the afternoon, and most of the researchers had gone to rest or eat.
A few researchers, who were sitting on the couch and chatting, immediately greeted Wu Mo when they saw him.
“Wu Mo, didn’t you go to the exhibition? Why are you back so soon?” an older researcher asked in surprise.
“The exhibition’s over. I got back earlier because I took a military vehicle.”
Wu Mo greeted everyone and entered the laboratory.
Everyone could not help but exchange glances when they saw this.
“Why is he in such a hurry? Did Wu Mo not perform well at the exhibition?” one of the young men asked doubtfully.
