Chapter 102: Graduation Photo
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wu Mo’s tone was gentle. He was trying his best not to let Jiang Mengyao’s mood worsen.
“Hmph… maybe you’ll run faster when the time comes.”
Jiang Mengyao was amused by Wu Mo, but she still pretended to be unhappy.
After a while, the two returned to their respective dorms.
They also agreed to go to the school together for a group photo at two in the afternoon.
After returning to his single dorm, Wu Mo sat on the soft couch as usual.
He took off the leather bracelet on his wrist and asked, “System, can you give me the maintenance plan for this thing?”
He felt that the fourth effect of the bracelet was very good. If he was not careful and was ambushed, he could still fight for a chance to escape.
Although Wu Mo did not need these things now that he had a Divine artifact with him, it was always good to have more insurance.
Due to the bracelet being used for too long, as well as the damage caused by improper storage, repairing it required a gemstone of the same type, and using energy stones and other materials to repair the damaged array formation. The cost of the materials was about 1.7 million
Hearing the system’s explanation, Wu Mo frowned slightly.
The materials for the array formation were easy to deal with. He still had a few baskets in his ring, but stones of the same type were a little difficult to deal with.
He carefully examined the bracelet and noticed that it was an ice-type ore. However, this stone was a product from more than ten years ago. Where could he find it now?
“It looks like I’ll have to put the repair work on hold for now. I’ll find an opportunity to repair it after I go to the capital.”
After putting the leather bracelet back on, Wu Mo opened the system store and prepared to buy some books on runes.
The last time he forged Mjolnir, he had drawn a rune that he had created himself. He was quite lucky at the time, but he couldn’t keep creating his own runes, could he? Wouldn’t he have to rack his brains?
There were a total of five major categories in the system store. There were gemstones used for inlaying, materials used for forging equipment or formations, finished equipment, potions, and books.
However, there were only a few pages of goods in each category, so it was not enough for Wu Mo to be self-sufficient.
He opened the book category menu.
Wu Mo scrolled down from top to bottom and quickly found a book on Tier 2 to Tier 3 runes.
However, the exchange points for 1000 points made his heart ache a little.
This price was equivalent to ¥300,000. Using it to buy a book was indeed a little extravagant.
However, now that he had to deal with his shortcomings, he could only grit his teeth and buy it.
Although he had several hundred thousand points now, most of them were earned from the design competition yesterday. He would not have such an opportunity in the future.
After the exchange, the points in the upper right corner of the system interface immediately changed to 233486.
At the same time, a brand new book appeared on the coffee table in front of him.
It was just that this book seemed to have just been printed. Although the quality was good, it still made Wu Mo feel as if the money he spent wasn’t worth it.
There were about ninety pages of books related to rune knowledge, and each page had a different explanation of runes as well as related knowledge.
However, the water content was too dry, just like reading a thesis. After reading for a while, Wu Mo felt a little dazed.
“Looks like this learning process will continue for a period of time.”
He rubbed his temples and sighed. Then, he sat on the couch and lay down.
After graduation, the mountain in front of him disappeared. Wu Mo did not study as hard as before. Instead, he combined his work and rest.
It was not even two o’clock in the afternoon when Jiang Mengyao sent him a message.
Wu Mo tidied up his appearance a little and went downstairs.
Today’s group photo had to be posted on the honor board of the campus. He had to pay attention to his appearance.
The two of them met outside the dormitory building and walked toward the teaching building together.
On the way, Wu Mo saw many students walking together in groups of two or three. They were chatting and laughing. The atmosphere was completely different from before.
Looking at the bamboo forest in front of him and the scene of the school buildings standing tall, he couldn’t help but sigh with emotion in his heart.
At this moment, quite a number of students had gathered in the open space outside a group of classrooms.
Professor Zhou Yan and a few assistant teachers had arrived in formal attire.
However, to Wu Mo’s surprise, Principal Qiu and Mayor Zhao had also arrived for some unknown reason.
A photographer was waiting at the side, looking very professional.
“Um… is this really just an ordinary group photo?”
He had some doubts in his heart, but at this moment, when Principal Qiu and the mayor saw that Wu Mo had arrived, they immediately walked over with smiles on their faces.
“Wu Mo, I heard that you are going to report to the Research Department in a few days. This is really something to celebrate.”
Principal Qiu had a kind smile on his face as he said cheerfully.
“My student is lucky to have Mr. Zhou’s help. Otherwise, with my ability, I don’t know when I would be able to enter such a sacred place!”
Wu Mo bowed slightly to the two of them and said humbly.
“Haha, Principal Qiu, your student is really humble. The Research Department is a place that countless forgers dream of. Shanglin City has a student who is invited in with an engagement letter. It’s an honor for us!”
The mayor smiled and praised. Then, without waiting for Wu Mo to open his mouth, he changed the subject and said, “I heard that your household registration isn’t in Shanglin City. That won’t do. It will be troublesome if you want to do anything in the future.”
“For a young talent like Wu Mo to win glory for Shanglin City, he must be given enough recognition.”
“The local citizens’ housing benefits, the preferential treatment for talents to settle down, all of these can not be missed!”
The mayor spoke with a serious expression, and Principal Qiu immediately nodded in agreement.
“Thank you for your concern, Principal and Mayor. I will definitely consider this issue carefully.”
Wu Mo nodded and expressed his opinion at the same time.
At this moment, a middle-aged photographer quickly walked over to Principal Qiu. “Principal, the students of Group One are all here. You can take photos with them at any time.”
Very soon, the group of students was either sitting or standing, divided into three rows and captured by the camera.
Meanwhile, Wu Mo was sitting beside the principal and the mayor. Although he said that he didn’t need them, the two of them still did so.
Soon, the photo was printed out. The mayor, the principal, Zhou Yan, and many other teachers were among them.
Many familiar faces of the students that Wu Mo was familiar with were also included in the photo at this moment.
“This is great…”
The three years of studying time was finally condensed into this picture. Each of them kept one as a memento.
Perhaps when they entered middle age in the future, they would still be able to find some time to reminisce about that period of youth.
After the picture was taken, everyone had a half-hour break. After that, it was the general mobilization meeting to bring the graduation to a close.
The teacher and the principal left.
The students were all free.
At this moment, Wu Mo realized that someone was staring at him.
He turned his head to look and found that the class monitor, Tang Mu, was looking at him with some fear.
“Huh?”
He thought that the other party had something to tell him, so he walked over directly.
When Tang Mu saw Wu Mo walking over, she thought that the other party was going to take revenge, so she was so scared that she almost ran away.
