“It feels good to be rich!”
Wu Mo stood at his single dorm’s entrance and looked at the boxes of daily necessities that had been delivered. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
“Mr. Blacksmith, please sign the delivery slip.”
The suntanned delivery man handed over the delivery slip with both hands and spoke respectfully
Wu Mo picked up a pen and signed his name on it. Then, he moved the supplies into his dormitory.
Looking at the daily necessities and food piled up in the corner, he felt much more fulfilled.
“This way, I won’t have to suffer from the cafeteria lady’s oily and salty food anymore.”
After complaining, Wu Mo stored the vegetables in the refrigerator and sat down on the couch.
Looking at the “¥990,000” on his phone, he immediately broke into a satisfied smile.
“Enter the Forging Space!”
Everything was ready, and Wu Mo noticed that it was still early, so he closed his eyes and concentrated on meditating.
In the next second, his senses were cut off, and his surroundings turned pitch-black.
Looking at the pile of excess materials on the workbench, Wu Mo sighed.
Although he seemed rich, it was only on the surface.
It would take him at least another 20 days to repay the debt of more than ¥2,000,000.
Once he graduated from the Divine Arms Academy, he would be without support, and those money lenders would come collecting.
Therefore, the peace he currently had was temporary. Furthermore, he still needed to forge Mjolnir before he graduated. Just finding the materials was more difficult than ascending to the heavens.
“Sigh, let’s take it one step at a time.”
Wu Mo sighed and turned his gaze to the workbench.
The reason why he wanted to enter the Forging Space this time was to use the remaining materials to forge a ring for himself.
It would be much more convenient no matter what he did in the future.
He did not want to hold everything in his hands every time he bought materials. Not to mention, some metals were too heavy. Unless he was a cultivator, he could not move them at all.
Throwing aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, Wu Mo picked up a coin and began to copy the Interspatial Ring’s design.
Thanks to his first experience, he only failed twice before he finished the design this time.
The whole process took less than half an hour.
As the process of casting the rough shape was a little complicated, Wu Mo wanted to rely on the redo function to fully understand all aspects. Hence, he deliberately made mistakes at the end of each fusion until he had mastered every point. Only then did he pull the rough form out of the furnace.
Picking up the ordinary iron hammer, Wu Mo hammered the red cast with all his might.
He only chose to rest for a short while after he repeated the process thousands of times.
The rough surface of the ring was only a dozen centimeters long and three fingers wide. After several thousand times of forging, its surface became extremely smooth, and its silver glow became even purer.
As for the final strengthening process, Wu Mo carried it out carefully.
First, he needed to embed the Cosmos Stone on the ring, then stabilize the array formation within, before finally quenching it again. Next, he sprinkled the Moonlight Dust on the red-hot ring to stabilize the energy within.
He also went through this process more than ten times. His goal was to increase his physical strength!
Moreover, because he had enough time now, the final Interspatial Ring was even better than the one he had made for Mr. Jia.
Looking at the ring that emitted a light blue glow, Wu Mo picked it up and examined it meticulously for a moment.
‘System, appraise this ring!’ Wu Mo thought to himself.
The system instantly replied.
[Ding… Equipment complete. Its attributes are as follows.
[Equipment Type: Accessory
[Name: Perfect Interspatial Ring
[Grade: Rare
[System Score: 24 points
[Equipment Effects: (1) Possesses 50 cubic meters of independent space. Items stored will not decay for 20 years. (2) Increases the wearer’s spirit energy by a small margin.]
Wu Mo revealed a satisfied smile after he saw the system’s appraisal.
If he remembered correctly, when he first forged the Interspatial Ring, the system had only given him a score of 21 points, and it only had one effect.
The slight changes were enough to prove that all the time and effort he put in earlier had paid off!
Wu Mo felt that his current skills should be comparable to that of some Five-star blacksmiths.
It was just that he had not gone through a systematic test yet. Thus, he was not too sure how much he had grown over the past few days.
As Wu Mo gradually relaxed, a wave of fatigue washed over his mind.
That was when he realized he had stayed in the Forging Space for a very long time.
After he put the Interspatial Ring on his finger, Wu Mo promptly closed his eyes and exited the Forging Space.
The moment he felt his bodily sense, he opened his eyes and looked at the time on his phone. He realized that only ten minutes had passed in reality.
Following a slight conversion, he realized that to create the perfect ring, he had stayed in the Forging Space for eleven hours.
If not for the fact that the Forging Workbench could greatly increase his concentration, Wu Mo did not think that he would have been able to last that long.
Wu Mo started to feel drowsy, so he got up and walked toward his bedroom.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard the system’s voice again.
[The system has completed its calculations of the host’s influence points. The Interspatial Ring forged by the host has generated quite a bit of influence in Treasure Pavilion. The host has earned a total of 184 points!]
However, Wu Mo did not hear the system’s report at all. His consciousness faded, and he quickly fell asleep.
Perhaps he had been too tired lately because Wu Mo slept from 1.45 pm to 10.00 pm.
Before he slept, the sun was still shining brightly. When he opened his eyes, it was pitch black outside his window.
After fumbling around and turning on the lights, Wu Mo entered the bathroom to wash his face. Then, he cooked himself a delicacy that only existed on Earth out of the fresh vegetables and meat: meat with alfalfa.
Wu Mo looked at his phone once he was done with his meal. There were still people chatting enthusiastically in the class group chat.
[Ding… System notification. The host currently has 184 points. Would you like to exchange them for materials?]
Just as he was about to browse through the latest news, the system’s voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
Right then, Wu Mo vaguely remembered that the system had said something before he went to sleep in the afternoon. However, he had been too sleepy at that time and unable to understand it.
He thought to himself and summoned the system’s interface. Then, he flipped through the recent notifications. True enough, he found that he had received points.
“I didn’t expect to shock so many people and only receive such few points. This doesn’t make sense.”
Wu Mo wanted to grumble further in his heart, but he still opened the material store page to see how many Blue Star coins a point was worth.
The material store had a variety of things, from the most basic wood to rare ores and metals. There were also all kinds of animal materials, such as claws, feathers, horns, and so on. For a moment, Wu Mo did not know where to look.
