Chapter 237: Return to Report, the Dejected Bald Eagle
The hilt that was lying quietly in the box did not match the image that he had imagined. He was even unsure if it could be considered a weapon.
Although he was full of questions and disappointment, he still did not show it on his face.
“How is it? I’m sure you’ve never seen a similar weapon before.”
Wu Mo chuckled and explained, “I named this weapon the Spirit Wave Sword. Not only can it shoot out several kinds of lasers, but it can also easily cut through armored vehicles. It’s powerful, but it’s very dangerous. When you press the b.u.t.ton on it, don’t use it on anyone!!”
Seeing that Bald Eagle was still confused, Wu Mo said, “You might not understand what I’m saying. Why don’t we try it out in the yard? But we can’t use the highest grade, or it’ll melt the asphalt road.”
Hearing Wu Mo’s serious words, Bald Eagle could not help but smile bitterly.
This thing could melt asphalt roads and was that powerful?
This group of researchers and cultivators really had the bad habit of bragging!
“Forget it, I believe you. There’s no need to try it. It might cause more trouble.”
Bald Eagle immediately closed the box with a smile and said, “Brother, I appreciate your kindness, but this thing was specially ordered by Company Commander Zhang. I can’t use it recklessly, so there’s no need to test it.”
With that, Bald Eagle finished the last half of his beer in one gulp and got up to leave.
Wu Mo immediately sent him off, and the two of them chatted for a while in the courtyard.
“Brother Wu Mo, I’ll report back now.” Bald Eagle cupped his hands and said with a sincere look.
Wu Mo nodded. “Alright, let’s drink to our heart’s content when we have the chance in the future!”
Wu Mo watched Bald Eagle leave with his things and then returned to the living room.
Looking at the two empty gla.s.ses and a few bottles of beer on the coffee table, Wu Mo could not help but smile.
Bald Eagle was a loyal person, and he was a good person to befriend.
Moreover, even though his strength had reached the peak of six stars, he did not put on airs, and he was humble. He was always thinking of others. There were not many people like him nowadays.
However, Bald Eagle was currently in a difficult situation, and it was still unknown if he could recover in the future.
The latter’s comrade-in-arms, Lone Wolf, should also be an iron-blooded man. Such people often had very strong self-esteem, and being crippled would definitely be a huge blow to them.
Whether or not he could walk out of this haze in the future, everything depended on himself.
Thinking of this, Wu Mo felt a little depressed. He could not help but sigh and sit down again.
The cultivator soldiers on the front lines not only had to take the risk of being killed by fierce beasts and enemies, but most of them would also be considered lucky to survive and be crippled for life, living a life that people would look at in a different light.
That was indeed very difficult for those men who had strong self-esteem and were unwilling to give up easily.
The Invisibility Armor and light sabers still could not protect the cultivators who were fighting the fierce beasts.
They were not enough!
There were also many soldiers who were injured for various reasons, but they still had great ambitions and wanted to serve the country!
Wu Mo knew that the indomitable soldiers all yearned to go to the battlefield and contribute.
However, reality had become their biggest obstacle, and no one could really help them.
He could only say some words of comfort that did not hurt or even tear open a scar.
Perhaps, he should consider doing something that could help this group of special comrades in the future.
With that in mind, Wu Mo seemed excited.
He looked out of the window with bright eyes, and an indescribable feeling spread in his heart.
However, he could only temporarily put these things to the back of his mind because had to continue the work at hand.
He needed to share the technology of the Spirit Wave Sword so that the subsequent ma.s.s production plan could be implemented smoothly.
Wu Mo immediately went to his bedroom on the second floor. He planned to write his thesis on the computer and hand it over to Academician Xu later.
His footsteps were light, and it looked like he had a goal to strive for. He was thrilled.
The words that he had said before about having a good rest in the next few days were now thrown to the back of his mind.
Turning on the computer, Wu Mo’s fingers moved quickly as he wrote down the three effects of the Spirit Wave Sword, including the principles of the heat wave, ray, and pulse as well as the weapon’s internal structure.
The more he wrote, the more excited he became, and he was completely immersed in his work.
On the other side, Bald Eagle took the black box containing the latest weapon and left the fifth Research Department in a military vehicle.
“Captain, was the leader’s mission difficult? Why did you return so late?”
Inside the military vehicle that was speeding on the road, two young men in camouflage military uniforms were sitting in the front row.
Faced with their question, Bald Eagle heaved a sigh of relief and casually said, “It’s nothing. I was just delayed a little. It’s not too late to go back now.
The two young men sitting in the front row were his companions who had followed him on this mission.
However, their military ranks were low, so they did not know the details of the mission. They were only responsible for sending Bald Eagle to a secure place.
“Oh, I know. Captain, are you in a bad mood? I feel like you appear much more haggard than before.”
The soldier sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat looked at his captain’s bloodshot eyes and could not help but ask.
“It’s nothing. I just haven’t had a good rest recently.”
Bald Eagle made up an excuse.
This pa.s.senger could tell that the captain was in a bad mood, so he did not disturb him.
Bald Eagle felt a little lonely as he watched the scenery outside the window fly past him.
He did not know what to do in the future.
His ident.i.ty and appearance had been exposed to the rebel organization, and the subsequent mission would inevitably become more difficult.
In addition, he had fought against two core members of the organization outside the prison last time.
In the end, both of them were detained and locked in a special prison.
Sadly, he was also injured because of that.
It was quite serious. Although his daily life was not affected, his body would uncontrollably move and shake when he entered a combative state.
Whether it was using cold weapons or single-handed handguns, he was no longer able to reach 60% of his previous state.
In other words, he was still at the peak of six stars on the surface, but his actual combat ability had decreased by several levels.
Even if his enemy was only an early-stage six-star cultivator, it would be difficult for him to subdue him.
Looking at his hands, which were full of scars and calluses, Bald Eagle’s nose twitched.
He wanted to continue to serve the federal government, maintain the peace of Nine Provinces, and destroy all those evil organizations.
They would find the spies of other countries hiding in the capital one by one.
Bald Eagle wanted to continue fighting side by side with his former comrades. He longed for every second on the battlefield and enjoyed the smell of blood on the enemy.
