Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Chapter 222: Interrogation



At this moment, not only was Bai Li's mood fluctuating greatly, even Chu Li's eyes could not help but twitch. He planned to find the person in charge after this matter was over!

In the crowd, Wu Mo appeared calm as he faced the line of questioning from the two high-ranking leaders.

He did not plan on explaining anything, and he did not want to put the blame on Academician Xu.

"The dagger isn't bad either," he said seriously. "I designed it seriously. It's as good as the Invisibility Armor."

Wu Mo's answer disappointed Bai Li, Chu Li, and the other leaders.

The Invisibility Armor was obviously the right path, but the young man in front of him wanted to study the dagger. He was going about it wrongly!

They had wasted a trip.

"Alright, we respect your choice. With your intelligence, even if you study the dagger, you should be able to make a name for yourself."

Bai Li's expression changed, and his tone sounded indifferent.

The design assistant knew that director Bai Li was obviously very disappointed. Although he gave his blessings on the surface, his thoughts reflected a different opinion.

Chu Li, who was standing at the side, felt that Bai Li's words were nonsense.

How powerful could a dagger be?

Could he exterminate those feral beasts of Rank 5 or even higher with a single slash?

They were being so careful because of the Invisibility Armor. They wanted to reduce the probability of their brothers getting injured.

But now, everything had gone beyond their expectations.

In his opinion, although the young man named Wu Mo, had commendable forging skills, he did not listen to advice and took the wrong path. He would definitely regret his choice in the future.

Many of the heads of investment from the consortiums looked at Wu Mo with disappointment as they stood at the back.

He was still too young, unable to even grasp such a good opportunity to stand out. He had even indirectly offended two important figures from the capital.

He would have no future prospects.

In the crowd, Liao Dongcheng frowned slightly. He looked a little confused, but more than that, he was puzzled.

He did not know why Wu Mo would choose such a thankless thing.

The dagger's upper limit was clear, and it could only be used for close combat. It might have been high-quality, but it could not compare to the Invisibility Armor.

"Sigh..."

"Rather than wasting time here, why don't we go and see the works of others?"

A few older research professors looked at the unmoving crowd and could not help but sigh.

"There must be other outstanding blacksmiths in such a large research institute. Aren't we here to observe the cold weapon test?"

Seeing that the situation had apparently gone out of control, Academician Xu and the other professors suddenly became anxious.

When Wu Mo accepted the mission, it was clearly an order from the other military leaders.

However, this information was not connected to the City Defense Army and the Hunter Bureau's system.

Hence, things unfolded the way they did.

Now that the two officers' impression of Wu Mo had soured, it would be difficult to correct it!

Just as the few of them anxiously thought of countermeasures, a voice suddenly rang out from the quiet crowd.

"Wu Mo, take out your newly forged dagger and show it to everyone to avoid any misunderstandings."

Liao Dongcheng, who was in the crowd, spoke up without warning.

He had no say in among the group of leaders, but he was worried that Wu Mo's future career would be affected because of this.

After all, the last time he tested the Invisibility Armor, there was a misunderstanding too. At that time, he was just as disappointed as the two leaders were now.

However, Wu Mo's equipment later displayed an extremely powerful effect.

As such, Liao Dongcheng took the risk of being disrespectful and made the request.

At the same time, he was incredibly curious. With Wu Mo's temperament, he would not waste a month's time for a piece of equipment that did not require any skill.

Could there be a misunderstanding?

As soon as Liao Dongcheng said this, several leaders looked at him. Their eyes seemed to be telling him not to be rash. If he offended Bai Li and Chu Li, no one would be able to protect him.

Fortunately, the two highest-ranking officials did not say anything.

They just stared at Wu Mo coldly.

Wu Mo nodded. He understood that Liao Dongcheng was trying to help him out.

He immediately had an idea.

The next moment, a black box appeared in his hand.

At this point, Academician Xu and the two professors were a little nervous.

The researchers in the periphery who had also designed daggers of their own stretched their necks. Many leaders had placed their hopes in Wu Mo, and they wanted to see how high Wu Mo's standard was.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Wu Mo immediately opened the box.

The next moment, a 30-centimeter-long dagger hilt materialized before everyone.

The outside of the tube was a circle of rubber, and one side was inlaid with gems.

There were also unknown controls installed on the other side.

The only things that stood out on the open black pipe were the three buttons at the center, which reminded one of modern technology.

However, this object did not look good at all. It was a semi-finished product that did not even have a blade!

When they looked into the box, the dagger that Wu Mo said was comparable to the invisibility cloak was actually a black hilt.

A cold glint flashed across Bai Li's eyes.

In the Hunter Bureau, lying to the higher-ups was punishable by military law.

This Wu Mo guy in front of him was full of nonsense, and he had no respect for him at all!

A person like that relied on his knowledge to be arrogant and look down on everyone.

With such a nature, he was not worthy of being a blacksmith respected by tens of thousands of people!

Chu Li, the head captain, noticed that Bai Li was about to get serious, and he immediately tapped the back of the latter's hand subconsciously. Simultaneously, he moved his lips and mouthed, "Bai Li, don't be impulsive. Let the leaders of his department handle this."

Following Chu Li's reminder, Bai Li gradually controlled his emotions and snorted coldly. Then, he directly walked to the side.

The military leaders at the back shook their heads secretly. This graduate student named Wu Mo was still too inexperienced.

He did not even consider the most basic criteria.

They had truly overestimated him.

When the dagger designers in the periphery saw this, they could not help but laugh.

Wu Mo was a real "talent." In a month's time, he had made a strange hilt and failed to live up to Academician Xu's high expectations for him.

This time, he had lost face before the other military departments.

The entire fifth Research Department would become a laughing stock in the future.

However, they could only laugh in their hearts. In front of the leaders, they just silently went along and dared not speak.

The one with the most emotional fluctuation was Liao Dongcheng, who had spoken first.

He had assumed that Wu Mo would take out an extremely gorgeous multi-purpose weapon and change everyone's opinion of him.
