Therefore, Wu Mo set a rule for himself. The accumulated time he could enter the realm every day would be no more than ten hours, which was six minutes in the real world.

That was the only way to maintain a normal routine.

In the following week, he completed many preliminary tasks.

First, he had to finish all the modifications to the Invisibility Armor.

The Invisibility Armor lying in his Interspatial Ring had overcome all its flaws and was quietly waiting for the mass production project.

Second, he had read through all the documents issued by the system. Although there were still some principles that he did not understand, he had completed at least 70% of the work, and he could officially start the next week.

Third, all the researchers in the fifth Research Department who had accepted the project had been pulled into the same group chat by the Information Department.

The group chat was lively every day, and he would occasionally join in the discussion.

When he saw someone raise a wrong point of view, he would kindly correct it.

So, he also felt a sense of participation.

Of course, the warehouse staff had also stopped by his place a few times over the past few days.

Forging the Spirit Wave Sword required many materials, and most of the research institutes did not have them.

For example, he had to make the molecular oscillation device and High-frequency Stone himself. He could only make the Spirit Wave Sword after he had completed and assembled them.

Fortunately, the Research Department had three materials in stock, and Wu Mo directly asked for two sets of them for future use.

Of course, the three books that Wu Mo had borrowed from the internal reference room this week had all been returned.

Ever since he started working at the Research Department, he had been visiting the internal reference room several times a week, so he rarely missed anything.

Now that a few months had passed, he had already finished reading most of the notes and books in the internal reference room. Most of the remaining information covered subjects that he already knew.

If it were not for the rule that he could only borrow three books at a time, he would have probably achieved this goal much earlier.

Due to his frequent borrowing, he had become the most familiar person in the internal reference room. Most of the time, the guard would only go in as a formality and not check much.

Since Wu Mo was going to start construction in the second week, the materials he lacked could only be obtained through auctions or from organizations similar to Treasure Pavilion.

He called Academician Xu straight away and asked him to arrange the funding.

“What? You said that it would cost ¥5,800,000 to forge a dagger!”

On the other end of the phone, Academician Xu could not remain calm, and he sounded a little stern.

“That’s right. I need to use many materials that the Research Department doesn’t have to cast the dagger. To avoid delaying the work process, I can only go out and purchase them.”

Right then, Wu Mo felt a little disappointed. During their discussion, Academician Xu seemed supportive of his development of a vibrating weapon. Why was he suddenly complaining about the high funding?

After all, the price Wu Mo quoted was a little low. Many things were incredibly rare, and it was impossible to get them without going to a large chamber of commerce.

“Hmm, okay. Use the materials sparingly then. The project’s deadline is still a long way, so there’s no need to rush.”

Xu Wuyue hung up the phone in a daze, but he still transferred the funds to Wu Mo’s account through the system.

After all, he had produced the Invisibility Armor before, so he was quite at ease with Wu Mo’s behavior.

Besides, the mass production of the Invisibility Armor was about to start. He could use it immediately even if he had more, so it should be fine.

On the other side, Wu Mo heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the notification on his phone.

He was worried that there would be problems with the budget, but Academician

Xu Wuyue was still very reliable. Although he had some objections, he still transferred the money to his card with haste.

Seeing that it was still early, he decided to go out first. Once he found enough materials, he would come back and start making the Spirit Wave Sword.

Soon, he left the Research Department through the gate.

He immediately called an online taxi and prepared to head to the capital’s city center.

Being a base city, its center was well-developed. There were private schools for blacksmiths and chambers of commerce in great numbers. There were also many private smithing shops for customizations.

As for auctions, several large chambers of commerce would open once a week. The auction house, which was thousands of meters long, was often full.

Powerful cultivators and master blacksmiths could often be seen there. One could say that Shanglin City could never hope to achieve the level of liveliness and grandeur of an auction at the city center.

Wu Mo had chosen the day that the capital’s number one chamber of commerce, Treasure Trove Pavilion would hold its auction—every Thursday.

Treasure Trove Pavilion’s reputation in the capital was extremely great. It had opened thousands of branches of various sizes in the Nine Provinces.

Treasure Trove Pavilion’s main store was in the capital city, and there was an endless stream of customers every day. The power of one store brought the reputation of the entire street to its peak.

Soon, the taxi stopped at a corner of the street.

Wu Mo paid and got out of the car before he immediately walked toward Treasure Trove Pavilion.

He had ventured out for two things today. The first was to purchase the materials needed for the Spirit Wave Sword, and the second was to head to the Blacksmith Guild to change his robes.

After all, his strength had already reached the five-star rank, so what was his deal wearing a four-star forging suit all the time?

He soon arrived at the center of the street, the entrance to Treasure Trove Pavilion.

The pavilion before him was a large six-sided building that had been constructed in an ancient Chinese style.

One could call it a cornice and a richly ornamented building.

Every part of its design was intricate. Just looking at it from a distance, one could feel the antique fragrance and lingering charm.

Many luxury cars were parked in the open space outside Treasure Trove Pavilion’s gate

There were Cullinans, Ferraris, Koenigseggs, and other models that were worth more than ¥10,000,000.

There were also brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

While there was still an hour before the auction began, many people had already taken their seats.

They were all waiting in anticipation. Among them, there was no lack of elders from aristocratic families, high-level cultivators, and other experts that one would not normally see.

Wu Mo approached Treasure Trove Pavilion’s gate, but because he was only wearing casual clothes today, the doorman stopped him before he could enter.

“Sir, how may I help you?”

Even though the doorman stopped Wu Mo, his tone remained respectful. He was not condescending in the slightest.

“I need to buy some materials to forge weapons.” Wu Mo shrugged his shoulders and said naturally.

Seeing this, the doorman continued to explain, “Sir, you may not understand what kind of materials we sell. They are only suitable for blacksmiths. If you are only buying materials to make an ordinary weapon, Molin Material Shop on the other street is more suitable for you.”

The young doorman explained patiently with a respectful attitude.

At this point, Wu Mo finally understood that he was probably being treated as an ordinary person.
