I had just acquired over 50 million points, barely had time to enjoy them, and in the blink of an eye, 40 million points were gone.
Mo Tianyun still felt a pang of heartache.
As his strength continued to grow, the points he needed to exchange for potion recipes also gradually increased.
The points required to exchange for each higher-level potion recipe increase tenfold or a hundredfold.
Of course, each level of medicine formula has many different efficacy variants.
However, after some mental calculation, Mo Tianyun realized that the most cost-effective medicine formula was usually the one with the highest efficacy.
The advantage lies in the fact that although the materials needed to prepare the medicine are precious, the amount used is small.
Furthermore, the most potent medications can be taken much less frequently.
For example, if you take a potion that increases your strength by 100 tons in one go, you would need to take it ten times to increase your normal strength to 1,000 tons.
If a drug that increases one's strength by a thousand tons is taken at once, then the desired effect can be achieved with just one dose.
Left with no other choice, Mo Tianyun could only exchange for formulas for highly effective gene evolution potions and formulas for mental strength enhancement potions.
One week later.
The core space of the miracle.
Simulated space.
"With my current mental strength, I should be quite good at doing this!"
Mo Tianyun looked at the results of his hard work over the past week with satisfaction.
Before me was a perfect-grade ordinary combat mech, very similar to the previous Tianyun mech.
Since Mo Tianyun exchanged 30 million points for mental power application materials, he has only been able to learn the very first few application methods of the materials because his mental power strength is insufficient.
As for the subsequent information on the application of spiritual power, it has been temporarily sealed by the spirit of miracles, and Mo Tianyun is currently unable to view it.
If he were to insist on examining it, even if he could break the spiritual seal of the Spirit of Miracles, Mo Tianyun would absolutely not dare to do so; he would not risk his life.
Even if you only learn the first part of this mental power application material, you will still be able to use mental power to process parts and assemble a regular-class combat mech.
Manufacturing combat mechs in this way is several times faster than manufacturing them using instruments produced by the Oron Empire.
Mo Tianyun could have built a perfect-grade ordinary combat mech using the equipment produced by the Oron Empire in about half an hour, given his current mental strength.
However, after Mo Tianyun learned the most basic methods of applying mental power in this mental power application material, he was able to create a perfect-grade ordinary-grade combat mech in about ten minutes.
The manufacturing speed of this mech is indeed three times that of before.
Back when Mo Tianyun first built the Tianyun Mecha at the Mecha Manufacturing Center in Hanshan City, it took him almost a whole day to complete the project.
It can be done in ten minutes now!
"Your application of mental power is not very proficient yet. I suggest you use real materials to create more combat mechs in the real world. This way, the effect will be much higher."
"Moreover, in reality, some materials have much more complex internal structures, unlike the materials simulated in the simulation space, which are all the same."
The Spirit of Miracles had been guiding Mo Tianyun in learning how to apply his mental power for the past few days, and she was quite satisfied with his progress.
"Okay, I understand. Now it's time to put it into practice."
Mo Tianyun nodded and said.
In the past few days, he has spent most of his time learning these methods of applying mental power in the simulated space, so he has become a hands-off manager, leaving many things to his subordinate officers.
Back in the present, Mo Tianyun converted all the military merits in his personal micro-brain into mecha manufacturing materials. Most of them were materials for manufacturing ordinary epic-level combat mechas, and a small portion were materials for manufacturing top-grade extraordinary combat mechas.
It's worth mentioning that the Duna Star Defense Military Base controls all the space within a radius of several light-years. The advanced materials accumulated over the years, along with all the pseudo-Zerg commander-level Zerg body materials that Mo Tianyun extracted from the pseudo-Zerg commander, are almost enough to manufacture a legendary combat mech.
However, with Mo Tianyun's current mecha manufacturing technology, he is far from reaching the technical level required to manufacture legendary combat mechas.
As for the materials used to manufacture ordinary combat mechs, Mo Tianyun no longer finds them appealing, so he hasn't exchanged any of the low-level materials for manufacturing ordinary combat mechs.
Because Mo Tianyun had millions of military merit points, he used them to exchange for almost all the precious materials needed to manufacture mechs in the entire base.
Then, Mo Tianyun used his military merits to exchange for a large amount of biological medicinal materials, which would make it easier to prepare gene evolution potions, mental strength enhancement potions, and energy replenishment potions in the future.
So-called biological medicinal materials are nothing more than some plant medicinal materials with powerful and unique medicinal effects, precious parts of animals with strong genes that can be used as medicine, artificially bred advanced alien beasts, and the body materials of some powerful insectoid races.
Without exception, these biological medicinal materials contain powerful vitality, capable of causing mutations and evolution in human genes.
The most unique material is the Zerg body.
It's used in manufacturing combat mechs and in preparing medicines; it goes without saying that the Zerg's genes and bodies are indeed formidable.
Due to the Zerg invasion, the Oron Empire's mech manufacturing technology and gene evolution potion formulation have made rapid progress, especially in the last few hundred years.
While war brings destruction and disaster, it also accelerates technological progress.
Even though Mo Tianyun spends his military merit points lavishly, he still has military merit points left over.
Although he didn't have many military merits left, he still had a little over 300,000. Even with 300,000 military merits left, Mo Tianyun still had more than most colonels at the Duna Star Defense Military Base.
When the lieutenant colonel who was in charge of the logistics area heard the news, he exclaimed that the commander-in-chief was truly generous and wealthy!
They then quickly organized a large number of people and mobilized many transportation vehicles to transport all the materials that Mo Tianyun had exchanged to the material storage area of the mecha manufacturing department.
All the materials that Mo Tianyun exchanged with his military merit points belong to him, so these materials are now his personal property.
In about two weeks, Marshal Odis Swift will send a new batch of troops. After the defense of the Duna Star military base is strengthened, he will probably go to the Oron Genius Mecha Master Academy for further studies.
At that time, although Mo Tianyun will still retain his military rank, he will no longer be in the army, and all his military merits will become just a bunch of numbers, worthless.
Mo Tianyun is now exchanging all his military merits for mecha manufacturing materials and biological medicinal materials. He will use the less valuable mecha manufacturing materials for practice, except for stockpiling the materials he needs in the future.
Mo Tianyun is currently in the mecha manufacturing department, waiting for these materials to be delivered to him.
"Commander-in-Chief, what are you going to do with all that military merit points you exchanged for so many mech manufacturing materials? That many materials could build thousands of extraordinary combat mechs, or dozens of epic combat mechs."
"Yeah, Captain Tianyun, if you do it this way, our mecha manufacturing department won't even need to start work, and we old guys will be idle!"
Old Bellok, accompanied by several top-tier mecha manufacturers, arrived before Mo Tianyun.
President Gracie was among them.
Inside the mecha manufacturing department, as Mo Tianyun was waiting for the materials to be delivered to him, several top-level mecha manufacturers rushed over to see what was going on after receiving news that Mo Tianyun had taken all the materials.
"Seniors, it's like this. I've made some progress in mecha manufacturing technology these past few days, but I still need to consolidate it. So I need a lot of materials to manufacture combat mechas."
Mo Tianyun was also helpless, but he had no choice but to do it.
Anyway, he exchanged all these materials with military merit points, without needing to go through multiple approvals.
Of course, he is currently the highest-ranking officer at the Duna Star Defense Military Base, so obtaining approval is just a matter of a word.
However, the mechs manufactured using the approved materials must be handed over to the Oron Empire.
He could only receive some merits and military merit points as rewards.
Mo Tianyun wouldn't do something like working for free.
The most important reason he's preparing to manufacture so many combat mechs is, of course, to practice the application of mental power. In addition, the completed combat mechs can be sold for star coins.
Once Mo Tianyun has manufactured all these combat mechs, he can sell them for a large amount of star coins.
This will also provide him with a lot of wealth for his future studies at the Oron Genius Mecha Master Academy on the main planet of the Empire.
No matter where you go, you need money to live a better life.
True wealth is both spiritual and material.
Mo Tianyun is now an Imperial Major General, holding an Imperial Noble Identity Card. Although he is not a big shot on the Imperial Main Star, he is still of higher status than many people living on the Imperial Main Star.
In short, Mo Tianyun was preparing his material wealth for his studies at the Oron Genius Mecha Master Academy.
A typical combat mech costs anywhere from several million to tens of millions of star coins.
A standard-grade ordinary combat mech starts at one million Star Coins, a superior-grade ordinary combat mech is worth at least three million Star Coins, and a top-grade ordinary combat mech is worth at least six million Star Coins.
When Mo Tianyun first created a combat mech, the Tianyun mech he produced reached the perfect level and was called a perfect-level ordinary combat mech.
A perfect-grade ordinary combat mech like this wouldn't be available for even ten million star coins.
Because such perfect-grade ordinary combat mechs are extremely rare and have limited availability.
A super combat mech typically costs between tens of millions and hundreds of millions of star coins.
The value of mechs is categorized into general, excellent, top-tier, and perfect grades based on their maximum weapon enhancement multiplier, similar to the classification of ordinary combat mechs.
Epic combat mechs are at least a hundred times more expensive than extraordinary combat mechs, and are often priceless even when available.
The reason for this is that the creation of epic battle mechs is extremely difficult.
The value of epic battle mechs has skyrocketed due to various factors, including the amount of materials used, the quality and grade of materials, and the high failure rate in manufacturing epic battle mechs, creating a huge gap between them and extraordinary battle mechs.
Don't be fooled by how easily Mo Tianyun created the enhanced Thousand Swords Mecha core. In fact, he had failed many times in the simulation space until he finally memorized and mastered all the steps, gradually reducing the probability of failure and thus increasing his success rate to a very high level.
Furthermore, when President Gracie created the Life's Afterglow Mecha, he already had decades of profound experience in mecha manufacturing. Combined with Mo Tianyun's insights from researching the Thousand Swords Mecha, he was able to achieve success in one go.
An epic battle mech costs at least one billion star coins, and sometimes hundreds of billions of star coins.
The enhanced version of the Thousand Swords mech that Mo Tianyun is currently piloting is worth far more than a hundred billion star coins.
When it comes to epic battle mechs, their value cannot be analyzed in the same way as that of ordinary battle mechs and extraordinary battle mechs.
Starting with epic battle mechs, every epic battle mech pilot pays close attention to every aspect of their mech.
The value of an epic battle mech is influenced by several factors, including its size, flight speed, energy output level, energy output value, maximum power enhancement multiplier, and the presence or absence of a mech battle imprint fused with spiritual power.
The size of the mech determines the number and size of its accessories. Generally speaking, the more accessories an epic battle mech has, and the more powerful those accessories are, the stronger its combat power.
Flight speed, energy output level, energy output value, and maximum weapon enhancement multiplier are the most basic aspects of a combat mech, and of course, the higher the values and level, the better.
The mech battle imprint that has not been fused with spiritual power is unique to mechs of epic-level or higher; it is not present in ordinary or extraordinary mechs.
Therefore, every combat mech pilot pays close attention to the mech battle mark of an epic combat mech.
Only when a mecha engineer successfully inscribes a spiritual imprint on the core body of an epic-level or higher mecha can the mecha battle imprint be formed.
Only when the mech battle imprint is formed can the combat power of an epic battle mech be maximized, and only then can it be considered an epic battle mech.
Only when a combat mech pilot first pilots that epic combat mech and integrates their spiritual power, which must have reached at least the "Spirit Sea" level, into the mech's battle seal to form a unique battle seal, can it be considered a true epic combat mech.
