288 Rewards Inventory

“How is that possible? Many senior researchers in our department can’t even compare to him in terms of skill, much less the younger generation. Wouldn’t Wu Mo demolish them by attending White River’s exhibition?”

“That’s true. Maybe Wu Mo found some inspiration, and he’s preparing to realize it.”

“Tsk tsk, I can’t help but be impressed by his spirit of academic research.”

“There’s only return when there’s effort. That’s why he’s able to develop excellent equipment.”

Everyone started to talk about him with envious eyes.

A few of them even gave up on slacking off and prepared to work a little longer.

Meanwhile, Wu Mo returned to the laboratory, and the first thing he did was to close the door. Then, he took out the new Best Designer reward from his infinite Interspatial Ring.

The organizers were usually more generous with the reward for the exhibition’s best designer. Otherwise, Gu Hongzhuo would not have hated him so much.

A classy black box with a matte surface soon appeared on the table, and Wu Mo opened the latch expectantly.

There was not much in the box. There was a small award of only 20 centimeters in height and about 200 grams in weight.

The entire trophy was made of a rare metal, rhodium. It was silvery-white in color, it had a high-end look.

Wu Mo knew that its price was just as beautiful. A trophy like this, which weighed nearly 200 grams, was worth at least ¥600,000.

In addition to the trophy, there was also a piece of paper in the box, which was equivalent to an award certificate.

A pair of light gray gloves was the only other thing. They looked ordinary and had a dull surface.

Wu Mo’s heart skipped a beat. The exhibition organizers would never award someone with ordinary items. Hence, the more ordinary an item looked, the more valuable it might be.

With that in mind, he immediately asked the system to identify the gloves. Soon, the values and functions of the gloves appeared before him.

[Equipment identification successful. One hundred points consumed. Its attributes are as follows:

[Equipment Type: Gloves

[Equipment Name: The Craftsman’s Gloves.

[Equipment Grade: Epic

[System Score: 68

[Equipment Effect: 1. Spirit Shield (When receiving damage, 50% of the damage will be offset by the consumption of spirit energy at a 1:200 ratio.)

[2. Blacksmith’s Heart (Increases mental recovery speed by 20%, reduces mental power consumed when forging equipment by 10%.)

[3. Ocean of Knowledge (Wearer enters a state of immersion when reading. Learning efficiency increases by 100%. Lasts for a duration of 90 minutes per day.)

[Rune Effect: Tier 2 Flame Resistance Rune (Can isolate heat up to 3,000 degrees.)

[Equipment Evaluation: This equipment is tailor-made for a blacksmith. It combines defense, learning, and spirit energy recovery into one. All of the equipment’s effects are highly consistent. It was made by a seven-star master blacksmith.]

Wu Mo was a little taken aback while looking at the light blue system interface that was slowly dissipating before him.

He never expected this Epic-grade equipment to be a custom-made piece, and it had even come from the hands of a seven-star master.

As he had expected, the organizers would not reward him with ordinary items.

He immediately took the gloves out of the prize box and put them on.

The moment the gloves were on his hands, he felt different.

Ordinary gloves would make him feel impeded or restricted whenever he wore them.

They were inconvenient for both work and writing.

However, the gloves that Wu Mo currently wore felt like a thin layer of cicada’s wings. Not only did they not affect his sense of touch, but they were also incredibly light as they clung to his hands. One would not even realize that one was wearing gloves after a long time if one did not deliberately feel for them.

As such, they were great equipment for both work and life. If Wu Mo did not fear that wearing them 24 hours a day would affect their durability or get them dirty, he would not take them off.

After counting his gains, Wu Mo placed the trophy and certificate back in his Interspatial Ring.

He was prepared to put on the Craftsman’s Gloves and start working.

He could feel the effect of the gloves’ spirit energy recovery.

Right then, his spiritual power was extremely focused. He would certainly be more efficient than usual if he decided to study or work.

It just so happened that after attending the exhibition, he had a lot of inspiration and ideas that could be implemented. He planned to take advantage of the immersive feeling to continue developing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear.

Wu Mo turned on the computer and looked at the gear’s 3D model. After observing it for a while, he discovered a small problem.

He knew that this was the effect of his immersed learning state. He stopped dwelling on it and immediately devoted himself to the gear’s research and development.

He would enter the forging space to look up the necessary information and return to the computer to continue modifying the model.

An hour passed by in a flash for Wu Mo while he was in that focused state.

However, before he could put his new ideas into practice, the effect of full concentration disappeared.

Nevertheless, Wu Mo had done a lot of things in the past hour. He had adjusted the model, so the current model was more scientific than before, and its layout was more practical.

The knowledge he had learned before was also imprinted in his mind, and he could remember it better.

In the past, he would not have been able to complete so much work in less than two or three hours.

“This immersion effect isn’t bad, but the duration’s a little short.”

Wu Mo looked at the light gray gloves, and he was extremely satisfied.

At the same time, he was slightly disappointed. He thought that the gloves’ effect would last 100 times longer if he put them on in the forging space, but apparently, that was not the case. The duration was still only an hour.

Despite that, Wu Mo was quite satisfied. If it could actually last 100 times longer, this equipment’s value would probably rise to Divine grade

While he was sighing about the master blacksmith’s high level, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Wu Mo subconsciously looked at his phone. When he saw that it was a call from Academician Xu, he immediately picked it up.

“Hello, Academician Xu. Are you looking for me?

“Ah… okay, I’ll be right there.”

After hearing that Academician Xu had something to say to him, Wu Mo quickly hung up the phone and rushed to Academician Xu’s office.

At 5.20 pm, Wu Mo pushed open the door and walked into Academician Xu’s office.

He thought that Academician Xu only wanted to talk to him about the exhibition. He did not expect to see three people sitting in the office.

Academician Xu and Old Wen were sitting on either side of the spacious conference table. The person sitting at the head of the table was a seemingly unfamiliar middle-aged man.

The man had a head of short hair, his eyebrows were highly arched, and his facial features were well-defined, giving off a valiant spirit.

What surprised Wu Mo the most was the formal suit that the man was wearing. Two golden ears of rice decorated his pine-green epaulet, which was inlaid with golden stars.
