253 A New Goal: Visiting the Workshop
Feng Qi, who was beside them, immediately recalled seeing Wu Mo’s commendation on the Research Department’s official forum two days ago. He immediately said, “That’s right, and he was even promoted to second lieutenant. He’ll be bragging about it for the rest of his life.”
Wu Mo smiled internally. That had happened a few months ago, and he did not expect them to only learn about it now.
However, on the surface, Wu Mo was still very careful. After all, some things ran deeper, and confidential things could not be known by ordinary people.
He smiled and nodded, indicating that he would work harder in the future.
“I never thought Wu Mo would achieve two technical breakthroughs before he was promoted to second lieutenant,” the crowd said. They were afraid that it would be even more difficult for ordinary people like them to get this honor.
This made Wu Mo curious. He subconsciously asked, “Is it difficult for a second lieutenant to be promoted again? In other words, how many credits do you need to complete second-cla.s.s merit?”
His somewhat inconspicuous words immediately made many people start talking.
“Of course it’s difficult. If it’s a cultivator with slightly weaker strength, it’s only possible to reach the position of platoon commander after 12 years in the army, which is equivalent to a first lieutenant.”
“It’s even more terrifying to upgrade second-cla.s.s merit. It’s even more difficult than three third-cla.s.s merits. It’s only possible if you make an outstanding contribution to a certain extent.”
“That’s right. My uncle is a cultivator of the five-star rank. After he entered the army, he gave them almost 20 years of his life and paid the price of almost being disabled before he received second-cla.s.s merit.”
“If you want to be promoted, you must make significant contributions. It’s not that simple.”
The dozen or so researchers had different opinions, but all of them said that it was very difficult to be promoted to military rank.
After Wu Mo heard about these cases, he gained a hint of understanding.
It seemed that it was far from enough to achieve what he had now. He had to keep working hard.
At this thought, Wu Mo raised his head and immediately asked, “Are there any empty laboratories here? Can I borrow them?”
Upon hearing Wu Mo’s request, Feng Qi, who had been at a loss for words, promptly said, “Yes, there’s an empty laboratory over there. I originally planned to open it up after recruiting some people. All the materials are ready for use at any time.
“Alright, sorry for disturbing you. You can get back to your work.”
Wu Mo nodded and immediately walked toward the empty laboratory.
Everyone was also a little confused, but they quickly returned to work.
After Wu Mo entered the empty laboratory, he immediately approached the computer desk.
He turned on the computer and planned to record some of the thoughts he had gained from the conversation earlier.
He used this to spur himself on.
However, as he wrote, he began to change the subject and moved on to his latest idea, which he had yet to develop in detail.
A few days ago, when he was chatting with Bald Eagle, he had this idea.
He wanted to develop a piece of equipment that could truly help cultivators. It had to be lighter and more flexible than Red Heart’s one-piece armor he had seen at the meeting today!
Not only did they have to protect the bodies of the cultivators, but they also had to help the cultivators, who were injured or disabled, to protect the city and the people.
As he wrote, he had some inspiration. He started to draw the framework of the equipment plan in his mind on the second page of the doc.u.ment.
It was just that he had not thought of specific physical equipment, so he could only think and explore it bit by bit.
In about an hour, Wu Mo had written a few thousand words on the computer doc.u.ment, but most of the content was about the conjecture of the new product. The image on the second page also had some progress.
Just as Wu Mo was about to finalize the rest of the proposal, a phone call interrupted his thoughts.
He subconsciously took out his phone from his coat. When he realized that it was old Mr. Wen who was calling, he immediately stood up and walked to the side, at the same time pressing the answer b.u.t.ton.
“h.e.l.lo, Old Wen, is there anything I can help you with?” he said in a low voice.
here’s the thing. The workshop for the Invisibility Armor has been built. It was in trial operation yesterday. Do you have time now? do you want to come and take a look? ”
On the other end of the phone, old Wen’s voice was gentle and he asked in a questioning tone.
Wu Mo’s face immediately lit up with joy.
After such a long time, the production of the Invisibility Armor had finally entered the second stage, which was a good thing.
“Old Wen, I’m free now,” he immediately said with some excitement.
“Okay, I’ll send someone to pick you up now. After you go to the workshop, if you find any problems, you can let me know.”
After a while, old Wen hung up the phone.
Wu Mo sent the semi-finished doc.u.ment to his national research pa.s.s account, then immediately closed the door of the laboratory and left in a hurry.
The researchers pa.s.sing by saw Wu Mo’s anxious expression and did not say anything.
Soon, Wu Mo took the elevator to the first floor of the laboratory.
As soon as he pushed open the gla.s.s door and went out, he saw a camouflage military vehicle parked downstairs.
Downstairs in the experimental building, many people had noticed the ferocious military vehicle and were watching the show.
He did not know which leader these people were going to welcome.
The people who were watching the show were a little confused. This was just an ordinary public laboratory building, and the professor and Academician Xu would not come here at all.
Those who could conduct experiments here were ordinary people, and few of them were qualified to be called leaders.
Just as they were surprised, Wu Mo immediately pushed open the gla.s.s door and walked out. When he saw the military vehicle parked outside, he went straight to it.
“I’ll go! It’s actually Wu Mo!”
“Strange, why would he come to a place like this? he’s completely qualified to go to the research building.”
“I say, if he’s here to pick up Wu Mo, everything would make sense.”
After everyone saw Wu Mo, they immediately felt that everything made sense.
However, he was surprised that a famous genius graduate student like Wu Mo would come to such a place.
They all looked at Wu Mo with envy, and some even regarded him as a role model as they secretly encouraged themselves to work hard.
However, Wu Mo did not notice the thoughts and opinions of these people.
After he got into the military vehicle, the driver immediately started the car and drove out of the fifth Research Department.
In the military vehicle that was protected by spirit energy, other than Wu Mo and the driver sent by old Wen, there were also two guards who were at the perfected five-star rank. Their job was to ensure Wu Mo’s safety.
This was because the military had issued a new order some time ago to protect Wu Mo’s safety at all costs.
It would be fine if they were in the fifth Research Department, which had a lot of security.
If they wanted to go out, they had to send experts to protect them.
This time, Wu Mo was only going to look around. There were still two cultivators protecting the Invisibility Armor factory.
Coupled with the special military vehicle, it would definitely be able to protect Wu Mo.
