Wu Mo touched his nose and nodded, pretending to be calm.
“Hmph, you’re still the same as before, always talking big.”
Zhou Ning pursed her lips. However, her current thoughts were different from when she worked with Wu Mo for the first time. She believed that Wu Mo would definitely be able to complete the project perfectly.
After all, she still remembered the commotion that Wu Mo had caused in the test field.
“The time limit for this mission is one and a half months. When the time comes, I’ll arrange for the Information Department to gather all of you into a group chat. Then, everyone who accepted the mission can have a technical discussion in the group chat.
“Alright, I won’t say anything else. I’m looking forward to your explosive appearance.”
Zhou Ning blinked and immediately turned around to open the car door.
Wu Mo smiled and waved goodbye.
He only turned around and returned to the villa after Zhou Ning’s car had completely disappeared from his sight.
In the living room, Wu Mo placed the documents on the coffee table and called Academician Xu again to tell him aboutthe commission.
“Well, since you agreed so quickly, I’m sure you already understand the project’s main goal,” Academician Xu said with a smile.
He felt that Wu Mo was growing more and more mature. He did not even need an explanation anymore.
“Yes, Academician Xu. I already understand the core requirements of this commission,” Wu Mo said confidently while he lay on the couch.
“Okay, but I still have to inform you that you’ll have to design a dagger for this project. It should be quite easy for you, right? ”
Xu Wuyue was afraid that there would be mistakes, so he wanted to discuss the direction of Wu Mo’s forging to avoid wasting time should the first draft turn out wrong.
“Okay, no problem, Academician Xu. This project is indeed simpler than the previous ones.”
Wu Mo felt that since he had the system’s deduction plan and he had obtained the relevant technical documents, it would not be difficult for him to forge it as long as he understood the relevant techniques.
Compared with the Invisibility Armor from a few months ago, it was indeed much easier.
Hearing Wu Mo’s answer, Xu Wuyue felt that they were both thinking in the same direction.
He turned on the computer and transferred to the project of individual weapons production.
The leader in the war zone had asked Wu Mo to complete the project.
The reason why dozens of people received the commission at the same time was the same as the standard armor’s last improvement project.
The researchers were just there to accompany Wu Mo. It would still be Wu Mo’s work.
“The request requires it to be light and easy to carry as well as conceal. It also needs to be powerful and compatible with cold weapons. You understand, don’t you?”
Since Wu Mo was the core of the entire project’s research and development, Xu Wuyue repeated himself out of caution.
“There’s no issue. The weapon I’ve come up with is only 600 grams. It’s especially light.
“On top of that, it’s only a dozen centimeters long. It’s very suitable for the soldiers to tie it to their legs or hide it at the waist.”
Wu Mo was aware of the commission’s requirements, so he answered directly.
“It’s also incredibly powerful. At the very least, it won’t be a problem to cut wild beasts like tigers and leopards.
“In addition, it has its own light. Even if we fight in the dark, we can clearly locate our enemy.”
When Xu Wuyue heard Wu Mo’s words, he was completely relieved.
He had assumed that Wu Mo would have some psychological resistance after receiving this mission.
After all, the modifications to the standard battle armor that he had received before were very valuable, and they tested an individual’s ability as well as skills.
However, the weapon-making this time did not require much skill. Even a three-star blacksmith could make it.
It was mainly because the dagger needed to be used on a large scale, and Wu Mo was the most famous blacksmith recently.
Hence, the higher-ups nominated him to be the responsible party.
Regardless, Wu Mo needed to complete three technological breakthroughs before the end of the year.
This weapon would obviously take up a lot of his time. No matter how serious Wu Mo was in the entire research and development process, it would be difficult to break through the technological barrier and make a contribution to the country’s forging field.
However, after the conversation, Xu Wuyue felt that his previous worries had been completely unnecessary.
Not only did Wu Mo not show any resistance, but he also seemed to be looking forward to it.
Moreover, within an hour of accepting the task, he had found the direction of his research.
That clearly showed that Wu Mo was very interested in the project.
“Alright, I’m relieved to hear that. Go ahead and do it. If you lack materials or funds, just tell me,” Xu Wuyue said with a smile, completely relieved.
According to Wu Mo’s description, Xu Wuyue could roughly guess that he was going to make a dagger with high tenacity and hardness. It would also be light and easy to carry. It might even have multi-purpose features, such as a sawtooth blade on the back of the knife, lights, and so on.
It was already in the bag.
“Okay, thank you for your trust and support, Academician Xu. I’ll get back to work now.”
Wu Mo hung up the phone and felt full of energy.
At the same time, he was impressed by Academician Xu’s nature.
Academician Xu did not criticize him for developing laser weapons. Instead, he was very tolerant, even encouraging him.
It was something that delighted Wu Mo.
Looking at the documents before him, Wu Mo decided to start his research and development immediately.
There was still some time before the year-end conference.
Besides, there was still time for him to make the Spirit Wave Sword.
Once the actual Spirit Wave Sword was created, it would definitely be a technological breakthrough in the current field.
After all, whether it was in the field of science or forging, a shock wave device did not exist.
Thinking of this, he became excited and immediately went to the second floor to start his research.
Soon, he entered the Divine-grade Forging Space.
The place was always dark, and if one looked at the light of chaos for a long time, one would even have strange thoughts.
The surroundings were dark, and only the work table and the furnace were constantly emitting light.
Wu Mo walked to the bookshelf, picked up another book, and immediately began to read it carefully.
In the forging space, he could always maintain a calm state of mind while standing around the workbench. He could also slowly recover his spirit power.
More importantly, the flow of time in this space had become very slow. He only needed to go out and take a nap every 10 hours to recover his spirit energy and continue to devote himself to the ocean of books.
There was only one thing that he felt regretful about. He could not pick up his phone in the forging space or check the situation in the villa.
If he stayed in the medium for too long in a day, he could only use the remaining time to sleep and recover his mental power.
If someone found out, they would probably think that he had narcolepsy, and it would be difficult to explain, which would cause unnecessary trouble.
