Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? - Chapter 348
348 Shocking News
The man squatted down slightly, and his right foot landed on the floor, creating a creaking sound.
Everyone in the meeting room widened their eyes and held their breath.
Then, like a cannonball that was shot out of cannon, his fist blasted into the pressure plate of the test machine in front of him.
With a sharp sonic boom, the man’s iron fist collided with the pressure board, producing a noise that was loud enough to hurt anyone’s eardrums.
!!
Bang!
A violent tremor and impact force erupted at the same time, forming a visible air wave at the center. The terrifying power of the man’s fist poured out, causing the instrument before him, which weighed several tons, to shake violently. The huge force pushed it more than 10 centimeters back!
The pressure plate, which seemed to be made of a special metal, was now unrecognizable and deeply sunken in.
Seeing this unbelievable scene, everyone in the meeting room was shocked.
The screen showed that the man’s attack had also caused the windows to shake.
Its terrifying strength was clear to see!
Everyone gasped, their faces full of disbelief.
“Who is that man? One punch actually produced such a destructive force. I feel like his strength has already reached the middle stage of seven stars!!”
“Not just that. The force of that punch was at least five tons. Unless he’s a peak seven-star cultivator, it’s impossible to achieve such destructive power!”
Hearing their analysis in his ears, Company Commander Zhang shook his head as he did not agree with their point of view.
Cultivators who could reach the peak of the seven-star rank were rare in the entire Nine Provinces. One could count the number of cultivators with that rank in the White River province with their fingers.
Cultivators who had reached that rank would usually guard the large battlefields or be sent to the enormous battlefield.
It would be impossible for them to have the time to participate in such a test.
“Is it possible that this seemingly bloated full-protection armor has given him such great power?”
After thinking for a moment, Company Commander Zhang finally expressed what he was thinking.
However, as soon as he said this, one of the people opposite him immediately disagreed.
“Impossible. That’s definitely impossible. That armor is already so bloated. It’s already good enough that it doesn’t drag the user down. How can it still increase the user’s strength?”
A dark-skinned man sitting across from Company Commander Zhang immediately retorted with an affirmative tone. He had a scar that was a few centimeters long on his cheekbone.
He was the chief instructor in charge of training the soldiers in the military region. His position was not inferior to that of a company commander because he had rich combat experience and knew how to use equipment to increase his combat power.
Therefore, with his rich experience, he did not agree with Company Commander Zhang’s conjecture.
Even quality Epic equipment rarely had the capacity to directly increase the user’s strength or speed.
And even if they did exist, they would only serve as an additional flower on top of a brocade.
It was basically impossible to achieve the effect that was shown in the video.
The people around them looked at each other, unable to say anything for a long time.
Seeing the awkward situation, Battalion Commander Yang Ming, who was sitting in the main seat, immediately explained, “The force of the man’s punch in the footage earlier reached more than nine tons, which basically exceeds the upper limit of the seven-star rank.
“Meanwhile, the strength of his fist was only less than three tons in the previous test.
Shrugging his shoulders, Yang Ming continued, “The gap between the two tests was less than four months. The reason why my strength has improved so much in such a short time is all thanks to the large armor!”
He tapped his index finger on the conference table, and after he said that, Yang Ming immediately raised his head to look at the crowd. When he saw that everyone seemed interested, he immediately revealed a knowing smile.
Battalion Commander Yang Ming’s voice reverberated in the meeting room, and then disappeared.
Then, the entire room fell into a strange silence.
The other nine people present all had shock written all over their faces. The chief instructor, who had previously vowed that it was impossible, was directly stunned on the spot, unable to recover from his shock for a long time.
“Gasp… Hey, wait a moment.”
The director of the R&D Department, Zheng Shaowei, was the first to recover from his dazed state. He took a deep breath and said to the battalion commander in an uncertain tone, “Battalion Commander Yang, you mean to say that this seemingly bulky full-protection armor can provide the user with a strength boost of nearly six tons?”
Director Zheng looked at him with an “are you sure?” look. He seemed puzzled.
Yang Ming did not hesitate and immediately nodded.
“That’s what I meant.”
Hearing the battalion commander confirm his words, everyone was truly shocked. Their eyes were wide open as they looked at the battalion commander in confusion.
“I know it’s hard for you to digest this information, but it’s okay. When I got the news last night, I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep either.
“However, I still hope that you can finish watching the video before you express your opinions. By then, you’ll probably have a higher level of understanding.”
Battalion Commander Yang Ming spread out his hands and explained to everyone in advance. At the same time, he gave everyone a heads up.
When the time came, even if they saw the outrageous scenes in the video, they would not be too excited.
Even though the others had many questions, they suppressed their inner impulses and continued to watch the footage.
The length of the confidential video was 15 minutes, from Lone Wolf’s first strength test involving the pressure plate to the final Legendary-grade defense test.
Since the military had cut out parts of the footage, as well as Wu Mo’s answers to everyone’s doubts, the whole process left was pretty much high-energy.
From a speed test of a little over three seconds to the difficulty of dodging obstacles, everyone in the meeting room was shocked by the footage displayed in front of them.
Whether it was the super high speed or the dodging of the small iron balls, all the test results surpassed everyone’s expectations.
The feeling that was beyond their imagination was like a tide, constantly washing away what they knew!
Everyone in the meeting room became excited.
The subsequent defense test had raised the quality of the entire video to a level that they could not hope to achieve.
When the Heavenly Fire Bomb exploded, the dazzling light could be felt through the projection screen. It was so powerful that it could destroy all living things.
In the end, the man in full-protection armor walked out of the test area unscathed, and everyone was relieved.
Soon, the projection screen gradually dimmed, and the officials who participated in the meeting slowly calmed down.
