Northern part of the Empire, the defensive military base of the planet Duna.
This place serves as a defensive military base for the 51st Star Cluster. After the defeat in the last war with the Dylan Empire, the entire army was to be evacuated.
However, a few days ago, Mo Tianyun had already wiped out all the troops stationed in the Dylan Empire, and the Tianyun Empire's army had to return to garrison the area.
As a result, all the soldiers who were originally stationed at the Duna Star Defense Military Base returned here to defend the area.
The former Lieutenant General Cordia Stus has now been promoted to General and transferred by Field Marshal Odis Swift to Sector 114 as its garrison commander.
Colonel Chris, who knew Mo Tianyun before, was directly promoted to lieutenant general by Marshal Odis Swift, becoming the highest-ranking officer in charge of the defense military base on Duna Star, and was also awarded a general-grade legendary combat mech!
This is because Colonel Chris, or rather, Lieutenant General Chris, has broken through the "Spirit Sea" level of spiritual power, reaching the pinnacle of spiritual power, and can now control legendary combat mechs.
The past few years have been turbulent for Emperor Tianyun, marked by three major events: the Zerg invasion of the Empire's northern border, the Dylan Empire's invasion of the Empire's northern border, and Mo Tianyun's appointment to implement reforms.
This resulted in the deaths of some of the powerful combat mech pilots of the Tianyun Empire, while others were suppressed and executed for their rebellion. Now, the empire is severely lacking in strong combat mech pilots to contribute to its defense.
At this critical moment, there is a shortage of manpower, and Lieutenant General Chris's breakthrough in mental strength was timely. In addition, he was very familiar with Mo Tianyun, who is now Emperor Tianyun. Therefore, he was promoted by Marshal Odis Swift.
Similarly, Thorne, Nick, Talink, Cold Rain and Cold Wind, and Chairman Gracie also received promotions in the military because Lieutenant General Chris has risen through the ranks and doesn't have many capable subordinates.
When you're out in the world, being able to fight is certainly important, meaning having strong personal abilities is crucial. But most importantly, you need to have connections and influence!
Standing at the forefront of the times, even pigs can fly! Look, they've boarded the "interstellar hovercar" that's changing the times, and they're rising to new heights!
In the past two days, the Tianyun Empire has fully opened its interstellar network, allowing countless ordinary people to connect to the entire empire's interstellar network, broaden their horizons, and learn new knowledge.
The interstellar network was originally managed by the "Oron AI" and was only open to people with Imperial identity cards.
As for the Imperial Identity Card, during the reign of Emperor Oron, a citizen could only apply for a regular Imperial Identity Card using Star Coins after reaching adulthood, that is, after the age of 16.
Star coins, how many ordinary people can afford them?
Now, anyone with a device capable of connecting to the galactic network, regardless of size, can access the internet!
Suddenly, a video went viral on the interstellar network, with its views exceeding 10 trillion within an hour and 100 trillion within a day, setting an unprecedented video playback record on the interstellar network.
This is a video clip produced by an ordinary combatant and uploaded to the galactic network, causing a huge uproar throughout the entire empire.
The title of this video is: "The days I fought side by side with Mo Tianyun, the Empire's strongest combat mech pilot."
The footage captures Mo Tianyun's victory in the war between the Duna Star Defense Military Base and the Insect General-class Insect Hive Complex.
After Mo Tianyun, together with a group of combat mech pilots and all the interstellar shuttle warships, wiped out all the invading Zerg.
Mo Tianyun piloted the Thousand Swords mech, gripping a massive mech sword. A pair of sharp, gleaming wings unfurled from the back of the black Thousand Swords mech, which proudly hovered atop the battlefield.
At that time, this ordinary combat mech pilot who survived the war witnessed this moment from a distance. Unintentionally, he controlled the mech's AI to make a slight movement, which recorded the video and kept it safe.
Now that the interstellar network is open to the entire empire, he witnessed Mo Tianyun's history from an ordinary soldier to the Great Emperor Tianyun. Overwhelmed with emotion, he shared this footage on the interstellar network.
Unexpectedly, this video went viral, not only bringing him a lot of wealth but also earning him a lot of contribution points!
Because this video became a source of inspiration for countless combat mech pilots and ordinary people in the empire, Mo Tianyun also became a hero and idol in the hearts of the vast majority of people in the empire.
Therefore, this video is of great significance to the entire Tianyun Empire, promoting Mo Tianyun's glorious past, making the people of the empire admire Mo Tianyun even more, spreading an inspiring spirit, and motivating the younger generation of the empire to contribute to society.
Mo Tianyun naturally saw the video as well, and he couldn't help but recall the glorious days he spent at the military defense base on Duna Star.
Thorne, Nick, Talink, Cold Rain, Cold Wind, Chairman Gracie, Lieutenant Colonel Chris, and Major General Griffith Fred who will forever remain, along with the hundreds of millions of soldiers in the base, the two hundred million who died, and the numerous combat mech divisions...
These are all wonderful memories in his life, a time he will never forget.
"The slum village has changed so much, I almost didn't recognize it!"
A handsome young man observed the changes around him and smiled with considerable admiration.
He slowly walked down a street, silently watching people live happy lives.
The elderly sat on the benches chatting, lingering there, reluctant to leave.
Children played and frolicked in the streets, innocent and carefree. They chased and jumped, their laughter bringing vitality to the city.
The shops are decorated with beautiful lanterns and flowers, and the towering buildings that rise from the ground allow every person to live and work in peace and contentment.
Following his memory, the young man walked through the streets until he reached a tin-roofed house surrounded by a huge crowd.
"Is this the house where Emperor Tianyun lived when he was a child? It's so small!"
"Yes, it's truly unimaginable that the Heavenly Cloud Emperor once lived in such a small house!"
Most people looked at the house with a sense of emotion, but it was indeed a house where poor people used to live.
"Wasn't Emperor Tianyun a genius mecha maker when he was young? Why didn't he expand his house and renovate it more thoroughly?"
Some people were puzzled and asked questions.
"Yeah, a genius mecha engineer should at least have the ability to make a decent house, right?"
Others chimed in.
"I'm really fed up with you nitpickers. The area outside the city is large, but it's still limited. If you expand the houses, it will inevitably attract attention. Believe me, the city planning department will come and demolish the houses right away!"
"This house has been renovated very well, but it can't keep out the cold in winter. After all, the temperature here drops to tens of degrees below zero in winter, so special building materials are needed to keep it warm in winter and cool in summer. More than ten years ago, those building materials were not something that poor people like us could afford!"
The people of a poor village stood up to answer their questions.
Upon hearing this, those who had raised doubts understood.
"Sir, please stop. You cannot trespass into the designated area!"
The staff maintaining order saw a young man step over the protective fence and quickly ran over to stop him.
"What? Can't I even go home to visit my family?"
The young man spoke first.
Suddenly, a thought popped into the young man's mind: Had he said something wrong? This was just his old house, not his home.
