Chapter 144: Plan for Mass Production
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At that moment, Liao Dongcheng, who was used to big situations, was at a loss when faced with the new armor.
He took it carefully and was even more surprised when he felt its light weight and cool touch.
Liao Dongcheng had provided many excellent armors and other military products to the front war zone in the past decade or so.
Despite that, the armor lying in his hands was beyond his common sense and knowledge. It even made him waver a little on heavy armor.
After all, even combat suits could have such outstanding defensive power. Moreover, mobility and lightness were areas that could not be matched by heavy armor. In the future, heavy armor could be completely replaced by armor-type equipment.
Suppressing the strong shock in his heart, Liao Dongcheng raised his head to look at Wu Mo before him and subconsciously asked, “Comrade Wu Mo, I wonder if we can mass produce the Invisibility Armor in the future?
“If we want to realize this, what difficulties do we need to overcome? How do we work together?”
Liao Dongcheng asked a few questions that concerned him the most.
Xu Wuyue, who was standing at the side, noticed his anxious look and knew that Brigadier General Lia must be completely focused on the Invisibility Armor.
The two deputy generals who followed Liao Dongcheng all year round were also surprised right then. Their leader was usually meticulous and calm. He would be fearless even in the face of an emergency.
It was their first time seeing Brigadier General Liao so anxious. They wondered what contribution did this graduate student named Wu Mo make in the field of forging to make the leader treat him like this.
However,unlike the surprised deputy generals, Professor Liu, who was standing on Xu Wuyue’s right, appeared incredibly nervous.
He hoped that Brigadier General Liao’s conversation with Wu Mo this time would be smooth and that the project would be successfully finalized. One that happened, the fifth Research Department would definitely spare no effort to help Wu Mo carry out the mass production plan.
At that time, the Invisibility Armor’s contribution on the battlefield would also help the fifth Research Department return to its peak.
It would become an existence comparable to the General Institute among the many research institutes in the Nine Provinces.
Everyone focused their attention as Wu Mo lowered his eyes slightly. He thought for a moment and replied, “General Liao, the Invisibility Armor’s mass production plan can be carried out.”
When Professor Liu heard Wu Mo’s words, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
However, before anyone else could question him, Wu Mo continued.
“But mass production will inevitably involve a few difficulties. For example, the use of the Dark Light Wings for the invisibility materials. Since it’s relatively difficult to obtain, this problem regarding the material is quite complicated. Moreover, the Invisibility Armor still requires runes and Tier 2 arrays. It will inevitably cause the production process to become slow. If we want to mass produce it, we need a lot of manpower and material resources,” Wu Mo honestly explained the problems.
After hearing those words, the originally happy Professor Liu suddenly became worried.
With those two problems, Brigadier General Liao might put the project on hold temporarily because it was difficult to complete.
After all, everything was unknown before it was decided.
When Xu Wuyue and Liao Dongcheng heard Wu Mo’s statement, they immediately began to discuss it.
They discussed how to solve the problem and discuss the feasibility of available methods.
“Regarding the Dark Light Wings problem, there are currently many Dark Light Butterflies in the mountain range behind the Research Department. However, it would be difficult to get enough just by gathering them. If we can get the materials from the headquarters, we might be able to gather enough.”
Xu Wuyue raised his opinion on the material issue.
As the pillar of the fifth Research Department, he naturally knew how many kinds of materials the department had.
Liao Dongcheng frowned slightly. After a moment, he nodded and said, “No problem. When I go back, the Research Department’s headquarters will issue an approval. I will try to gather all the Dark Light Wings needed to mass produce the Invisibility Armor within three days.”
In Liao Dongcheng’s view, the Dark Light Wings were not valuable materials, but they were relatively difficult to obtain.
However, the Nine Provinces was so vast that the number of Dark Light Butterflies was naturally not small. Moreover, this creature did not participate in the natural ecology. Even if its numbers were reduced on a large scale, it would not have an impact on the city’s ecosystem.
In comparison, mass production of the Invisibility Armor was more important.
As for the inlaid gemstones or the casting materials used for drawing the armor, the fifth Research Department had them all. They only needed to transfer some senior researchers from other places to work on this together. They should be able to mass produce the Invisibility Armor soon.
With that thought, Brigadier General Liao immediately made his decision and decided to settle the matter.
“Comrade Wu Mo, you will have full authority to handle the armor’s modification and mass production. If there are any difficulties during this period, you can mention it. We will mobilize all resources to help you. As long as you can cast the Invisibility Armor, then all the problems will not be a problem!” Brigadier General Liao said firmly, completely expressing his attitude.
Professor Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had completely misjudged the degree of care that Brigadier General Liao had for this project.
He did not expect that under such circumstances, Liao Dongcheng would still overcome all difficulties and decide on the project.
He felt excited as he thought about it. Nextto him, Academician Xu also revealed a smile as expected.
“Thank you, General Liao, for your support. As long as the materials are ready, I am confident that I will be able to forge 100 sets of improved Invisibility Armor within three months!”
Seeing that Brigadier General Liao was so supportive of his improvement, as well as mass production projects, and giving it his all, Wu Mo would not disappoint his expectations.
Furthermore, he was confident that he would be able to obtain the improved Invisibility Armor. Now that he had the help of the leaders from the war zone and the Research Department, it was like adding wings to a tiger.
With the support of various resources, forging 100 sets of Invisibility Armor in three months would not be a particularly difficult task for him.
“Alright, alright. Everything will proceed according to your plan. I believe that with your intelligence and skilled forging ability, you will be able to complete it.”
Liao Dongcheng was extremely happy after he received an exact answer from Wu Mo.
He smiled and clapped his hands to praise Wu Mo.
The young man’s ability was beyond his expectations. Not only was he humble and hardworking, but he also had a rare academic spirit. He was the most outstanding genius he had seen in recent years.
One should know that 100 sets of Invisibility Armor was enough to equip two peak squads.
When the time came, the squad that wore the improved version of the Invisibility Armor would definitely be unstoppable in the battle against the invading Ten Thousand Races. It would change the slightly depressed morale of the entire southeastern war zone!
“You flatter me, General Liao. I actually managed to forge the Invisibility Armor because I borrowed the forging ideas and techniques of many master blacksmiths. I’m just an ordinary person who picked up the wisdom of others.”
