249 Monthly Meeting

Among them were Professor Liu and Professor Tan, as well as several core personnel of the fifth Research Department.

The monthly core meeting, which involved 10 people, began.

Everyone took their seats, and Wu Mo was arranged to sit next to Academician Xu.

When the others saw that Wu Mo was participating as well, they were a little curious.

Several of the core members there had actually not seen Wu Mo many times, but the latter’s reputation had been extremely pervasive in the past few months. Even if they did not know him, they were familiar with his name.

However, no one expressed any dissatisfaction with Wu Mo sitting next to Academician Xu.

At first, they only cast curious looks at Wu Mo, but soon they began to busy themselves with their own affairs.

Wu Mo looked a little reserved as he sat in the chair.

Old Wen immediately handed him a booklet related to the meeting.

“Take a look at this, don’t be nervous,” old Wen said in a low voice. Wu Mo immediately nodded and lowered his head to read it.

Soon, Xu Wuyue began to explain the central purpose of the monthly meeting and the matters that needed to be settled.

Several core members spoke one after another, giving Wu Mo a deeper understanding of the Research Department.

About 10 minutes later, many things had been resolved.

Then, Xu Wuyue changed the subject and began to talk about the current research progress on materials for Divine weapons in the Nine Provinces, as well as the gap between White River and other regions.

At this time, the materials in everyone’s hands were useful.

Although there was competition between the provinces, both in the open and in the dark, the governors were still delighted to share the basic parameters of high-quality products in their provinces with other provinces.

The materials in the hands of those in the meeting room covered the representative works of all provinces.

The basic parameters only covered the advantages and disadvantages of the equipment. Other core data could not be analyzed through such few words.

Therefore, there was no need to worry about the core technology being leaked.

Wu Mo flipped through the information in his hand. After seeing the representative works of other provinces in recent years, he could not help but fall into deep thought.

At present, the Red Heart region in the Nine Provinces was the most developed one. Its vicinity was rich in resources, and it had convenient transportation as well as talented people. It was also the dream city of many blacksmiths.

The White River province, on the other hand, was a little more remote. It was surrounded by two small battlefields and one large battlefield.

The White River province had been invaded by thousands of races all year round, causing its development to fall behind.

“What do you think, Wu Mo? How big do you think the gap between our White River province and the Red Heart province is?”

After a few minutes of silence in the conference room, Academician Xu immediately posed the question to Wu Mo, who was sitting closest to him.

Wu Mo frowned and quickly examined the situation. “Academician Xu, I’ve analyzed the problem you mentioned. I feel that if we exclude the Invisibility Armor and the Spirit Wave Sword, there’s still a gap of at least 30 years between our development of Divine weapon technology,” he said with certainty.

After Wu Mo put forward his point of view, he immediately began to analyze the geographical characteristics and resource distribution between the two states. He compared the differences and problems between them, finally proving his conjecture.

When the others heard Wu Mo’s analysis and logic, they all nodded in agreement. They felt that what Wu Mo said made sense. His data on the 30-year gap had been obtained without any personal bias. It was very fair.

The two professors looked at the materials in their hands, and their hearts sank. Although what Wu Mo said was not without reason, there was too little reference material. This was not enough to depict the actual situation.

The chief designer, old Wen, who was sitting beside Xu Wuyue, was also deep in thought.

Just when everyone thought that Wu Mo had finished speaking, he suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile, “But I’m talking about the past. At present, the gap might be 50 years.

Wu Mo’s words completely stunned everyone on the spot. Even Academician Xu, who was sitting in the main seat, was stunned.

“Why do you say that?” he asked subconsciously.

Wu Mo waved his hand and confidently said, “Now, the White River province has the Invisibility Armor and Spirit Wave Sword that I’ve designed. It’s the Red Heart province that is 50 years behind us in terms of Divine-weapon-forging technology!”

The crowd did not react for a moment, but Xu Wuyue immediately understood what the latter meant and laughed.

He looked at Wu Mo’s confident face and nodded in agreement.

Xu Wuyue felt that it was a good thing that Wu mo was confident.

Given the latter’s humble character, the fact that he could say such words in such a situation meant that he had absolute confidence in his forging ability.

This was a good thing for the fifth Research Institute and even the White River continent.

“Hmm, good analysis.”

He looked at Wu Mo with admiration and gestured for the latter to sit down.

Then, he took out a remote control pen from his pocket and immediately turned on the projector on the table.

Then, a ray of light shot out of the camera and projected the entire picture on the white screen.

Everyone turned their heads and Xu Wuyue said, “I’ve just received news that the Materials Engineering Department in the Red Heart province has recently developed a new type of standard armor. This armor is made of a light material and has a solid defense. It can block bullets from rifles and pistols, and it can also greatly increase movement speed. You should all watch the video to understand more.”

After he finished speaking, he immediately pressed down on the control pen, and the next moment, there was an image on the side wall’s light screen.

It was a video taken by video cameras in the Red Heart province’s war zone. In the video, several cultivators were wearing a set of strange equipment.

The first was a helmet that covered the head.

The helmet was a little strange. The mask could be pulled down, and there was a headlight embedded in the forehead area. The mask also displayed the surrounding temperature and wind data.

A cultivator was holding a shield that was half the size of a person’s body. The shield was silver, and it had complicated patterns drawn on its surface.

In his right hand, there was a weapon that resembled a large blade. Its handle was long and narrow, but there was no blade at the bottom. Instead, a circle of high-temperature flames sprayed out from the hole, forming the shape of a blade.

Finally, there were the shoes on their feet. Not only were they wrapped in metal, but there was something spraying out below them as well. It seemed to allow the wearer to float.

This entire set of equipment was the Red Heart province’s core Divine weapon. It could increase the cultivators’ attack, defense, and movement speed in all aspects.

The ion flame it released reached about 2,000 degrees, and it was extremely fast.

After the person in the footage introduced the product, the screen instantly jumped to open land.

It looked like a small-scale rift recovery operation. Several hundred monsters of different strengths were squeezing out of the rift.

The cultivator immediately activated the new type of armor he was wearing when he saw the vicious beasts appear.

In a flash, a scarlet blade of flame shot out from the hole in his saber’s long handle.

Then, the propelling shoes on his feet were swiftly activated, sending the 140-pound cultivator into the sky!
