"Welcome to the Central Galaxy, Your Excellency Black Star."
I'm here. This is the center of the universe … Han Xiao's eyes flickered.
As the regional broadcast sounded, this strange-looking fleet slowly moved forward. The main ship of the fleet received a communication request from the other party, and an officer wearing the dynasty's high-level military uniform appeared on the screen. He had two small tufts of mustache and looked very shrewd.
"I'm the commander of the seventeenth guard of the dynasty's mother planet. I'm here to welcome our allies who have come from afar."
Han Xiao sized him up and raised his brows. This commander was not a big shot, but he was familiar with him. In his previous life, when the players went to the dynasty's mother planet, they had to go through a lot of checks. In the end, it was the mother planet guards who led them through the restrictions. These mother planet guards were like a group of old men guarding the door, and they were all familiar faces to the players.
"Thank you for your hard work," Han Xiao said politely.
"Please follow me."
Then, this mother planet guard turned around and left. The fleet followed the route and flew slowly behind.
"This is your first time in the Central Galaxy, right?" Ames suddenly said and looked at Han Xiao.
"Mmm." Han Xiao did not comment. He knew the environment of the Central Galaxy like the back of his hand, but according to his resume, this was his first time here.
"Let me introduce you …" Ames shook her head. She would occasionally come to the Central Galaxy to look for Aesop while traveling, so she was quite familiar with this place. Since Black Star had never been here before, she felt that she had to help Han Xiao understand the situation here.
Hearing Ames's introduction, Han Xiaoxin felt a little strange. Why did he feel like he was a country bumpkin entering the city for the first time?
After listening for a while, Aesop chimed in. "The Central Star Field is different from the other Star Fields. All the Star System and Star Cluster civilizations here are vassals controlled by the three empires. The civilizations in the other Star Fields have different standpoints, but here, they are one entity. The security here is the best among all the Star Fields. Other than some thugs like EsGod, other small groups like galactic pirates and rogues can't be seen here. The moment they appear, they will be discovered and eliminated by the three Universal Civilizations."
Han Xiao nodded. The three Universal Civilizations dominated the Central Galaxy, and this was their base. It was basically under their complete control. Maintaining order was maintaining their own rule. Naturally, they would not allow this to happen.
The two fleets left the stargate station and stopped in space.
The guard commander spoke: "Please wait a moment, I will now open the spiritual flight channel for everyone and bring you into the homeworld"
With that said, the Mother Planet Guard's battleship shot out beams of blue and green, gathering into a light spot in the distance. A circle of blue and green halo gradually enlarged, as though it had turned into a portal. Inside the portal was a sea of green.
"The Psionic Flight Passage is a passage that allows you to jump safely within the Psionic Seal Band. Once you enter the passage, your spaceship will receive a Psionic Coating formed by a special code and energy circuit, allowing you to avoid the annihilation of the Psionic Seal Band," the Mother Planet Guard Commander explained.
The Psionic Seal Ring was like layers of shields, covering the homeworld and blocking all kinds of Planetary Annihilation Cannons.
This shield was not a shield in the ordinary sense. It covered half of the Crimson Ring Star System, and the buffer zone was extremely vast. Only a Universal Civilization could afford such a thing.
The spiritual coating was one of the advanced energy applications. Different codes and energy circuits were like different passwords. The wrong code structure would not be able to enter the respective Psionic Seal Ring. It was like a combination of a security pass and a key.
The fleet entered the dark green light gate, and as though they were passing through a bubble, the spaceships were wrapped in a layer of colorful film. Then, the guards also drove in, and the gate slowly closed.
The guards led the way at the front, and Han Xiao and the others followed closely behind. It would be bad if they went to the wrong place inside the Psionic Seal Ring. The two troops turned into streams of light, constantly changing their route like marbles, advancing along the safe route.
On the ship, Teny also casually chatted with Han Xiao, mentioning the situation of the homeworld.
"The Psionic Seal Ring was built during the exploration era. At that time, it was to prevent the Planetary Annihilation Cannons of the advanced civilizations. The space within the ring can be considered a sealed new world. During the war, the scientists adjusted the physical constants inside for safety. During peacetime, these changed physical constants were equivalent to pollution. We spent a lot of effort to control it, and only then did the sealed world where the homeworld was returned to normal …"
"The technology of the three Universal Civilizations is much more powerful than before." Aesop stroked his beard and sighed. "Resources, talents, and technology are highly concentrated. Their development speed is far beyond the second-tier Supercluster civilizations. The gap is getting bigger and bigger. I really don't know what else can shake your rule."
Han Xiao scratched his eyebrows and did not say anything.
At this time, the two fleets passed by an area. Through the porthole, they could see a ball of blue light shining in the distance.
Seeing Han Xiao look over, Teny took the initiative to explain. "That's a ball of Primordial Psionic Energy. Don't get close, or we'll be assimilated and devoured. This is one of the defense mechanisms of the Seal Ring."
After flying in hyperdrive for two days, the ship suddenly shook and finally left the Psionic Seal Ring. A dark red planet the size of a sesame seed appeared in their vision.
"That's the dynasty's capital, Planet Crimson Ring. With Planet Crimson Ring as the main planet, there are sixteen satellites around it, sixty large official orbital living stations, and many space bases. The population is 470 billion," Corbus, who was beside Teny, said proudly.
Han Xiao clicked his tongue and said, "The housing prices must be very high, right?"
"… That's right, but your focus seems a little strange." Corbus' mouth twitched.
I said that the mother planet is majestic, and you asked me if the housing prices are high. Are we talking about the housing prices?
As the fleet got closer, they could see the details of Planet Crimson Ring.
Planet Crimson Ring was extremely large. The Red Empire had artificially modified the size of the mother planet. Sixteen relatively small satellites orbited it. These celestial satellites were brought over by the dynasty using technology to offset most of the gravity and expand the habitable area of the mother planet. The surface of the planet was filled with buildings.
There were also many large orbital living stations and many space fortresses around the planet.
"The capital of a Universal Civilization. It's indeed spectacular to see it with my own eyes." Ames praised softly. This was also her first time coming to the capital of the Red Empire, and it was all thanks to Han Xiao.
"I came here once when I was still an Ancient One, but the grandeur was not as grand as yours." Aesop sighed. "I wonder if the National Pillars of the Crimson Dynasty still remember me. I've only met them once."
Following the instructions, the fleet stopped at a spaceport. The Black Star Corps members stayed on the ship while Han Xiao and the others boarded the spaceship prepared by the Red Empire and headed toward Planet Crimson Ring.
He purposely did not bring the army players on this trip. The players were too unpredictable, and it would not be good if they caused trouble there. Furthermore, if he brought the players of the Shattered Star Ring over, he might not be able to bring them back. He was there to poach them, not to give them away.
As they got closer to Planet Crimson Ring, the buildings on the surface became clearer. The Red Empire was known for being ruthless, hardworking, and pragmatic. Compared to the Radiant Federation and the Arcane Church, the culture of the empire was not as developed. The architectural style was square, angular, thick, and symmetrical. They liked red, black, and metallic gray.
Hu!
The spaceship slowly landed outside a huge city. The sunlight of the artificial star covered the square buildings with a golden veil. This was the main city of the dynasty's mother planet — Tarunamir Palace. It was the center of power of the entire dynasty. It was huge and had its own city.
A group of receptionists had been waiting at the dock for a long time. They walked up and said, "Your Excellency Black Star, we are the team in charge of receiving guests. Please follow me to the dynasty's reception center in Tarunamir Palace to rest for the night. Tomorrow, the dynasty's leader will personally meet Your Excellency Black Star."
"Okay." Han Xiao had no objections. He then looked at Teny and the other dynasty elites. "What about you guys?"
Teny shook his head. "We're going to the military to report. We're not going the same way."
Hearing this, Han Xiao nodded. He casually summoned an orange Hovering Guard Array made by a Beyond Grade A Beyond Grade A and gave it to Teny.
"This is for you to protect yourself. I don't know when we'll see each other again. Let's contact each other more often."
Teny was stunned. He took the set of machinery, looked at Han Xiao deeply, and said, "Okay."
Han Xiao did not neglect the other elite officers. He casually gave them some machinery as a sign of goodwill. He had plenty of machinery in his inventory. Mechanical weapons made by a Beyond Grade A Super were still quite valuable to a Calamity Grade Mechanic.
Watching Teny and the others leave, Han Xiao secretly raised his brows.
If not for the opportunity to accept the modification, he would not have had the chance to come into contact with these future dynasty bigshots. He had made some connections along the way, built a foundation, and gained quite a lot. He did not know if there would be another chance like this in the future.
After the dynasty elites left, only Han Xiao, Ames, Aesop, Hella, and the rest of the Black Star Guards were left. They followed the receptionists through the military alert zone and entered Tarunamir Palace.
However, the moment they stepped into the city, seven energy waves suddenly burst out from the city.
Boom!
"Hmm?"
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and stopped.
These seven auras were all Beyond Grade A Supers!
This lasted for only an instant before the seven auras were retracted. They did not have any intention of provoking him but just wanted to show him their existence.
Han Xiao's eyes sparkled. Seven Beyond Grade As … They should be the dynasty's experts and allies.
He thought about it. This was not a show of strength but more like a Beyond Grade A greeting to him.
"Your Excellency Black Star, in order to welcome you, the dynasty has specially gathered the National Pillars under us. Other than the Beyond Grade As who have matters to attend to or are far away, the rest who are free have all come," the receptionists said.
"After the meeting with the Empire's leader tomorrow, we will arrange for the National Pillars to meet with you."
"National Pillars, these guys have quite a nice name." Han Xiao smiled casually.
"What are you talking about?" The receptionists laughed. "You're now also a National Pillar of our Red Empire."
…
"That newcomer is here."
In a certain room in Tarunamir Palace, a few figures of different appearances sat on the sofa and looked in Han Xiao's direction with interest. Their gazes seemed to be able to penetrate the layers of buildings.
"He didn't respond to us."
"Seems like it's his first time seeing so many Beyond Grade As together. He doesn't know the rules."
"It's normal for someone from the Shattered Star Ring not to know."
"Hmm? The woman beside him is also a Beyond Grade A. "
"Dragon Emperor Ames, I know her."
"That old man beside her looks familiar … Hey, that guy seems to be one of you Ancient Ones, the one who knows how to make prophecies."
"It's him, I remember."
"Hehe, this new ally seems quite interesting."
"The Evolution Cube is in his hands. Don't go overboard tomorrow. I still want to borrow it."
