Chapter 215 The Production Of The Enhancement Scroll
As for the powerful young man, they also felt that it was unlikely for him to pass.
The five-star realm was equivalent to entering a broader space of knowledge in the field of forging. Only those who had been ranked four stars for a long time could possibly break through this shackle.
Plus, that young man looked to be the same age as them, so how could he have reached that level?
The two judges were chatting, while the invigilators were shuttling back and forth between the two stations covered by curtains.
In the blink of an eye, 10 minutes had passed. There were only 6 minutes left before the time limit was up.
Wu Mo had no idea how Jiang Zhou was doing.
At that moment, he was completely immersed in the drawing and did not even notice the invigilator coming in and out.
He was already at the final stage of the scroll.
He needed to control the forging pen firmly so that the energy would not dissipate at all. At the same time, he also needed to complete the connection to let the scroll take effect.
Sweat seeped out of his forehead, gradually gathering and flowing down to the tip of his nose.
Wu Mo did not even blink as he waved the forging pen in his hand, rendering the yellowed paper in a free and easy style.
Finally, the dry, forked tip of the pen stopped on the paper.
A faint light surged forth, immediately making the entire forging paper thicker and heavier.
Right then, sweat was dripping down his nose. Wu Mo swiftly shook his arm and took out the completed enhancement scroll.
Drip!
Oval-shaped beads of sweat fell on the work table in small splashes.
Wu Mo stared at the ink and light on the scroll, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
'I've succeeded!' he muttered in his heart.
An invisible sense of pride instantly welled up in him.
He had never come into contact with the production of an enhancement scroll before, but he had succeeded on his first try. It was undoubtedly a huge improvement.
Moreover, Wu Mo was able to produce a Tier 2 magic scroll on his first try. It was a testament to Wu Mo's rich theoretical knowledge and solid foundation.
Exhaling slowly, Wu Mo's eyes lit up.
He placed the boots on the work table and immediately began to connect the energy. He was ready to transfer the energy and effects of the scroll to the boots.
The Transmutation Array was one of the basic enhancements, and it had been provided by the guild. Hence, he was not required to make any additions.
After placing the energy stone in the eye of the Transmutation Array, a light blue light rose up after a while. The light wrapped around the energy in the scroll and immediately transferred it to the boots.
This process would last for a few minutes, so once everything was completed, it would basically be time.
It had to be said that the current test was indeed challenging. Even Wu Mo almost missed the deadline.
He looked out of the window not far away. It was almost two o'clock, and he had not even eaten lunch.
At that thought, his stomach made a rumbling sound.
"Sigh, after this, I'll go to the restaurant to eat before going back."
He did not expect time to pass by so quickly. Wu Mo had planned to go back after buying some materials.
However, that had led to so many problems. It had been a real waste of time.
After a short while, the Transmutation Array on the work table was completed. The originally warm energy stone was now dry, like a honeycomb briquet full of holes.
It was obvious that energy had been consumed to operate the array.
The ink on the scroll had not dried yet, but it no longer had a crystalline texture. It was no different from ordinary paper.
The boots just had a smoother surface not, and their weight had also increased slightly.
Wu Mo was curious about the scroll's effect.
With that in mind, he immediately activated the system's appraisal.
In a flash, the light blue system interface was directly projected before him.
[Equipment identification successful. Its attributes are as follows:
[Equipment Type: Shoes
[Equipment Name: Broadfoot Boots.
[Equipment Grade: Premium
[System Score: 34 points.
[Equipment Effects: 1. Iron Shins (Stamina consumed by walking or running is halved)
[2. Ankle Guard (The probability of injury on the foot is greatly reduced)
[Enhancement Scroll: Tier 2 Stride Scroll (Doubles the distance of each step)
[Equipment Evaluation: This is a piece of equipment with terrible effects. It's a product of mass forging. To be honest, this item is more suitable to be given to the soldiers at the border!]
Wu Mo could not even look at the attributes of the equipment that appeared before him.
The ring that he had previously forged was much more practical than these boots.
It was simply a disgrace to the Premium grade.
Fortunately, the Tier 2 enhancement scroll he had created was not bad. It had raised the boots' grade by one level, completing the task.
Tick tock tick tock!
Just as Wu Mo was grumbling in his heart, the timer started ticking.
The invigilator standing at the entrance of the studio immediately reminded him about the time.
Only then did Wu Mo snap out of it. He realized that there was a second person in the small room that was only 10 square meters.
"I'm sorry."
Wu Mo stood up and immediately walked out with the boots.
On the way to the judging platform, Wu Mo also saw Jiang Zhou drawing open the curtain and walking out.
Jiang Zhou's expression was not too good, and he had shoes that looked similar to Wu Mo's in his hands.
It seemed like he had failed. To be more precise, he did not even know how to draw a scroll.
For nearly half an hour, he had been in jail, doubting his life.
The moment he met Wu Mo's eyes when he came out, he felt even worse.
It was already a miracle that he was not crying now.
As for Wu Mo, he was also a little dumbfounded when he noticed that the boots had not changed at all.
This child was clueless, yet he dared to accept the five-star challenge. Was he bold or brainless?
The two of them, one in front and one at the back, approached the side of the judging platform. When the other students from the esteemed academy saw Jiang Zhou's rather blank expression, they instantly understood that they had completely lost the battle.
Although they knew that there was a high chance that Wu Mo would not be able to pass the five-star test, they could tell from the completeness of his equipment that he had at least made some changes, unlike Jiang Zhou.
The young blacksmiths felt extremely uncomfortable. More than a dozen of them had come to participate in the test, but from beginning to end, they had been surpassed by an unknown youth.
If they had been ordinary people, it would not have been a big deal. However, they were students of a noble academy.
Everyone discriminated against Wu Mo unfairly, and in their hearts, they looked down on ordinary people from poor families. They even felt that the field of forging was a noble profession born for the nobility.
Ordinary people did not have the right to touch it.
Wu Mo's clothes made him look like an ordinary person, but the forging ability he displayed was better than theirs. It was simply a slap in the face!
They were as arrogant as they were before, but now they were in a sorry state.
