Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

316 New Alloy Material

Although the materials from the warehouse were not too precious, each of them was of a certain degree of rarity. If he were to go around and collect them, it would take at least a week to gather a whole set.

Furthermore, the armory’s warehouse had given him about three sets of each material, which greatly increased Wu Mo’s margin for error in forging.

Although this was only his first attempt, if he could succeed on his first try, he would be able to save a lot of time.

What surprised him the most was that such treatment was given even to ordinary staff members.

One could see how rich the armory was.

With a thought, Wu Mo put the materials in his Interspatial Ring.

After confirming that the dormitory door was locked from the inside, Wu Mo sat on the edge of the bed and slowly closed his eyes to calm his mind. After a while, he had seemingly fallen asleep and could no longer sense any movement around him.

By the time he recovered and opened his eyes again, he was in a boundless chaotic space with dark purple light floating around.

At the center of the chaotic space, there were familiar working tables, furnaces, casting tools, and other instruments.

Wu Mo walked up quickly and waved his right hand. The next moment, a small mountain of rare materials appeared before him.

“Let’s start…”

Wu Mo muttered to himself as he squinted and looked at the materials in front of him that were emitting a faint glow.

He quickly put on the Craftsman’s Gloves and immediately began to process the materials.

Wu Mo was not trying to cast a device for the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear, but an exoskeleton armor that wrapped around the wearer and protected him or her.

According to his design, the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear would perfectly cover the chest, lower abdomen, hands, and feet of the wearer.

There was no design for the head as it would block the wearer’s vision.

After all, the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear was known for its flexibility. If there was a loss of vision, it would likely lead to other problems.

To achieve high mobility and flexibility, the material of the exoskeleton armor had to be light, and its thickness should not exceed three centimeters!

Moreover, the toughness and hardness needed to reach a very high standard so that it could be used for protection.

These almost unreasonable requirements meant that the materials used to cast the armor had to be carefully selected.

Unfortunately, Wu Mo had not been able to find the right materials during the few months he had been researching and developing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear.

If it was too heavy, it would greatly reduce the gear’s mobility.

The other way around, it would be difficult to have a high level of protection.

Even many of the patented alloys could not meet his requirements.

Wu Mo had no choice but to forge an alloy that was suitable for the gear’s armor himself. He had learned how to cast the new alloy from the document provided by the system.

Despite having the idea, he could not implement it when he was at the Fifth Research Department.

Since the new alloy casting method was too complicated, it required the help of various instruments. With the Fifth Research Department’s current hardware, it was impossible to complete it.

Furthermore, the Research Department’s material library was not comprehensive enough, and it could not provide the appropriate materials.

Wu Mo’s idea could only be realized when he arrived at the armory.

Just like that, Wu Mo began to work on his own understanding while reviewing the alloy forging method in the document.

He wanted to use these materials to create an alloy called polyethylene alloy. It was a material that was resistant to corrosion, impact, and it had high hardness.

If Wu Mo could successfully forge it this time, the exoskeleton armor for the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear would be close to completion.

However, even though he had already learned the core skill of alloy forging, the actual operation was still highly challenging.

The process was extremely complicated. Not only did it require the transfer of the solution, but the polyethylene needed to be extracted from the armory’s material warehouse and processed into high-molecular-weight polyethylene through tower permeation.

He still needed to use the furnace to calcinate another type of alloy with good compatibility. Finally, he would need to fuse the extracted high-molecular polyethylene with the other type of alloy and put them through a special process before he could obtain the final polyethylene alloy.

During this time, Wu Mo had to do a lot of preparation work. The final step, the fusion of polyethylene and alloy, required the help of the modern equipment in the research and development plant.

To complete the original version of the alloy, he had to deal with every detail.

Even if Wu Mo handled everything flawlessly, it would still take about two days to get the final product.

Although the road ahead was filled with difficulties, it did not shake Wu Mo’s determination.

He wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and continued with his work.

About 40 minutes later, Wu Mo finally finished mixing the solution for extracting high-molecular polyethylene.

At this moment, the small mountain of materials beside the workbench was almost half gone.

With a sigh of relief, Wu Mo immediately poured the light green solution into the permometer. After adjusting the permometer’s mode, he returned to the workbench and continued to deal with other things.

Since the forging equipment previously did not require that kind of material to be obtained through permeation, the Divine-grade Forging Space did not have the corresponding equipment.

This time, with a request, the space immediately unlocked the corresponding area.

It was just that activating the permometer cost him 1,000 points, hence Wu Mo was not quite used to it.

Ever since he became stronger, he had not exchanged points for anything in the system store for a long time.

Thinking back to when he was in the Divine Arms Academy, he would often exchange points for spirit power potions and spend his days counting points.

He glanced at the number in the column representing his points on the system interface. It was 276,829.

Well, it was still stable.

Wu Mo focused his attention back on the work table. He brought a few metals to the furnace and prepared to forge the alloy that was to be fused with polyethylene.

The 12 fire outlets outside the fine grade furnace were constantly emitting red light. Even though Wu Mo had not used it for a while, the flames inside were still rising and producing heat waves.

“Let’s begin… Once everything is in place, I should be able to create polyethylene alloy by tomorrow.”

Wu Mo placed his right palm on the fire and immediately mobilized his spirit power.

The next moment, the temperature of the furnace rose sharply, and a blinding light spread. He squinted subconsciously and did not forget to throw in the fist-sized molybdenum.

The casting of alloys was equally complicated and boring.

Not only did Wu Mo need to control the flame temperature in the furnace for a long time, but he also needed to put in various auxiliary materials such as oxidizers and reducing agents in time.

It would only be considered a success when all the various metals were fused, each property met the standard, and the impurity rate was less than three thousandths.

However, Wu Mo had already practiced the process of forging metal hundreds and thousands of times. This kind of difficulty was nothing to him, but it was certainly boring.

This process lasted for a long time. After about two hours, Wu Mo finally completed the fusion of the materials in the furnace.

The alloy was already being removed continuously. It would probably cool down in another ten minutes or so.
