Having only mental energy, the soul can control mechas, but the body cannot withstand the ‘pressure’ brought by mechas. Therefore, in the Federation, only people who awaken both mental energy and genes can pilot mechas. Thus, mech warriors have always been a scarce resource in the Federation.

The third type is ordinary people.

They still retain their original genes in the long river of evolution, which should have been a good thing—

But stagnation means no evolution. No strength, no talent, means being inferior in every aspect compared to ordinary people. These individuals are gradually exiled to low-level stars, eliminated by the torrent of time.

Mo Chengyu is the standard second type of person. She displayed astonishing talent before reaching adulthood, awakening to a 2S-level of mental energy. Unfortunately, she only awakened mental energy and did not inherit the beast genes from her family.

Therefore, she is intelligent but weak. Unable to fulfill her childhood dream of joining the army, she found another way, skipping grades to enter the mecha design department of the Federation Military Academy.

At the age of 20, she graduated and entered the Corps’ mecha design department. In just over a decade, she rose to the top position in the design department, becoming a core ‘resource’ of the Federation.

In recent years, due to Mo Chengyu’s excessive use of mental energy, working on mechas day and night, her mental energy has suffered minor collapses several times. As a result, she was forced by her superiors to take a break and relax.

Who would have thought that even on vacation, a workaholic like her would take a peek at the blueprints, exacerbating her condition.

Feeling guilty about this, Mo Chengyu said, “How was I supposed to know? I just wanted to take a look and do some casual assembly. I thought it would be a shallow effort, but who knew—”

She got carried away, got ahead of herself.

“Don’t be mad. I’ll send a message to General Mo for you. He’s been on leave from the Federation recently, so he should be available.”

According to the rules of mental energy repair, people with high mental energy can provide guidance to those with low mental energy, speeding up the recovery from mental energy collapse.

“I’ll invite him to stay for a while. We can also discuss mechas together, and this way, I can recover faster.”

“!”

“If Minister, you can get General Mo to come, that would be great!”

[Mo Chengyu: Big brother, big brother, big brother, your sister is almost going to die, I’m floating in space, waiting for you to save me from the water and fire without leaving me behind!]

[Mo Chengyu: Please come within three days! I’m waiting for you!]

[Mo Chengyu: If you don’t want to come, please consider that I am the brain of the Federation Corps. If I’m not well, many mecha projects won’t be able to proceed. Please come!]

Receiving the messages, Mo Si pondered.

“…It’s the familiar taste again.”

Many times, he couldn’t understand why his eccentric sister, who she is, could design such exquisite mechas for the battlefield.

It’s completely not her style.

[Mo Si: You don’t need to send a message, I’ll come anyway.]

[Mo Si: Despite disregarding your own body, you are also a soldier. Obeying orders is your duty. Going against your duty is something you do every day.]

[Mo Chengyu: Are you coming to lecture me again???]

[Mo Si: Yes.]

[Mo Chengyu:…]

[Mo Chengyu: Okay, okay, you’ve lectured me enough. When are you coming]

Mo Si planned to watch the next round of live streams before going, “Two days later.”

Mo Chengyu and he exchanged a few more words, and the scent wafted between them. She was excited and left a message in the communication: [This time, if you come to float in space with me, I’ll introduce you to a surprise! We have someone very amazing in our neighborhood. Her cooking is simply the best in the entire Federation. Big brother, do you want to come and taste it later!]

[Mo Si: No need.]

[Mo Chengyu: ???]

[Mo Si: She probably isn’t the best cook in the Federation.]

[Mo Si: While you’re recovering, avoid indulging in strong desires. You have a special status, so be vigilant about the people around you. Don’t eat anything of unknown origin casually. Cherish your life; you still need to serve the Federation.]

[Mo Chengyu:…]

[Mo Chengyu: Big brother, you’re no fun. Just come over when your mental energy comes over. Keep your mouth shut; I don’t want to hear it.]

[Mo Si: Unpleasant truths need to be heard. Sweet words are often deceiving.]

They couldn’t continue chatting that day.

Damn old-fashioned panda!!!
