"Haha, young friend Tianyun, your mecha-building skills have improved again? That's truly something to celebrate!"

Upon hearing Mo Tianyun's words, President Gracie immediately offered his congratulations with a smile.

"I see, then congratulations, Commander-in-Chief!"

Old Bellock echoed this sentiment.

"Congratulations! Congratulations to the Commander-in-Chief on your technological breakthrough and reaching a new level!"

The slightly overweight top-tier mecha engineer next to him quickly chimed in, congratulating Mo Tianyun.

The other top-tier mecha engineers also nodded and bowed, offering their congratulations.

Now, Mo Tianyun has become an Imperial Major General, with a status equivalent to a legendary combat mech pilot and a position comparable to an expert-level mech manufacturer, which is quite different from before.

In the past, the seniors always acted very high and mighty in front of Mo Tianyun, speaking as if they were seniors talking to juniors.

Since Mo Tianyun became the temporary commander-in-chief of the Duna Star defense military base, things are different now. Everyone has to speak to him politely and even bow respectfully.

Mo Tianyun has been feeling this atmosphere everywhere these past few days.

Whether it was Chairman Gracie, whom he had known since Uluru, or the several top-level mecha manufacturers from the Duna Star defense military base in front of him, or Colonel Chris, who had once taught him mecha piloting techniques, they all treated him with such humility.

Even the other five members of the Tianyun Squad gradually distanced themselves from him.

Mo Tianyun was also helpless about this. He did not put on any airs of being the commander-in-chief in front of these seniors, but his current status and position formed an invisible wall that isolated him from the good relationships he had previously maintained.

No wonder there's a saying that the higher one's status and position, the fewer close friends one has.

The stronger you are, the fewer friends you have.

The strong are always lonely.

If someone becomes so strong that they are invincible, then they should have no friends left, right?

How lonely it is to be invincible. Mo Tianyun finally understood this sentence a little bit.

As time passed, the military defense base on Duna Star was thriving, and almost all military areas had returned to their former state.

"Young friend Tianyun has really gone all out this time. The mecha manufacturing department is filled with combat mechas, all of them are extraordinary combat mechas, and there are even 7 epic combat mechas!"

President Gracie watched as battle mechs were teleported out every few hours, filling the area in front of the mech manufacturing department where they were parked, and sighed.

He's no longer shocked by this, because over the past week or so, Mo Tianyun has continuously manufactured hundreds of combat mechs, leaving him utterly bewildered.

"Look at their commander-in-chief, he's so young and he can last so long! Unlike you guys, I've never seen any of you last this long when you were young!"

An old woman-looking top-tier mecha engineer mocked the old man Belloc and his companions beside her.

Old Belloc and several other top-tier mecha manufacturers glanced at it but did not refute it.

They had been observing here for several days, and Mo Tianyun had not come out of the Epic Combat Mech Manufacturing Workbench.

On the contrary, every few hours, a super-powerful combat mech is teleported out from inside, and you can even occasionally see an epic combat mech. This is the most amazing part!

An epic battle mech is a skill that even a top-tier mech manufacturer might not be able to produce for several months. Being able to consistently complete the production of one epic battle mech in a year is considered quite impressive.

However, Mo Tianyun's mecha manufacturing speed is simply terrifying!

This made several top-level mecha manufacturers wonder if Mo Tianyun's previous statement that he had made some breakthroughs in mecha manufacturing technology meant that he had become an expert-level mecha manufacturer.

"Wow, seven epic battle mechs! I've never seen so many epic battle mechs except during wartime."

"Yes, me too. I've never seen an epic battle mech up close before. Our commander is just a superhuman battle mech pilot; he doesn't even have an epic battle mech."

"If I could have my own combat mech, even if it's just an ordinary combat mech, I would be willing!"

Outside the mecha manufacturing department, a huge crowd had already gathered, as all the soldiers who had nothing else to do at the base had come to watch the combat mecha.

These ordinary soldiers, in particular, have the strongest curiosity and the strongest desire for mechs.

Who wouldn't want to be a combat mech pilot?

Unfortunately, their mental strength did not break through to the "perception" level.

It cannot even pilot a regular combat mech.

But this does not diminish their yearning for combat mechs and to become combat mech pilots.

Besides ordinary soldiers, most of the combat mech divisions and officers also came here to stop and watch.

"The commotion that the Commander-in-Chief has caused this time is really huge; it's all over the news at the entire Duna Star Defense Military Base."

"Yes, this is the first time I've heard that the Commander-in-Chief is also a mecha manufacturer, and a mecha manufacturer with such high-level mecha manufacturing skills. This is truly unbelievable!"

"That's right. We combat mech pilots saw those battles clearly. The massive Zerg, tens of thousands of meters long, was killed by the Commander-in-Chief. That shows how powerful he is. But he can also build epic combat mechs. He's a top-tier mech manufacturer. I really never expected that!"

All the officers, as well as the combat mech division, looked on with a sigh.

They were all combat mech pilots, so they knew how difficult it was to reach Mo Tianyun's level of strength; it was practically impossible.

In this situation, Mo Tianyun not only became a major general of the empire, but also a top-level mecha manufacturer. Isn't that incredible enough?
