Legacy of the Void Fleet

The energy shield surrounding Kallus in his command room—created by the Supreme Being to suppress the overwhelming power of his bloodline and prevent its destructive overflow—dispelled, as there was no longer a need for it. Simultaneously, the Supreme Being withdrew its consciousness, leaving only the Red Empress aware of the change. Oblivious to this development, Kallus remained focused on himself.

Kallus flexed his fingers, staring at his hands with a mix of wonder and suspicion. Their fairness and smoothness were alien to him—unscarred, unblemished, and oddly delicate. He clenched them into fists, testing their strength. Were these truly his hands? Or were they a reflection of the deeper changes coursing through him? He shook his head, setting aside the thought for now.

Instead, he turned his focus inward, where a storm of energy pulsed and churned within his veins. He could feel it—raw, boundless power, a force that seemed to hum in tune with the very fabric of reality. For the first time, he felt unshackled, like a god unbound, as though the universe itself bent in deference to his will. Yet, just as the thrill of that realization began to take hold, he sensed an invisible ceiling—a tether, restricting the full scope of his potential

A growl escaped his lips. Ever since waking up in this strange reality aboard the Obliterator-class Star Dreadnought—his meticulously crafted in-game masterpiece—Kallus had been adrift in confusion. He knew this universe was vastly different from his previous one, but he didn’t yet grasp just how different.

There were the Knights, like Grandmaster Emman, and the incredible powers they wielded—energies that fascinated and unnerved him. He felt a strange, almost magnetic attraction toward these forces, recognizing them as a form of cultivation, but far superior to anything he had encountered before. However, his understanding was limited. His body had undergone an awakening, and now his soul followed, granting him fragments of information. Yet, much of it remained obscured, locked behind his current rank.

Kallus yearned to understand this galaxy, its cultivation systems, and its mysteries on a broader scale. He wanted to know the vast differences between this universe and the one he once knew. Now, armed with newfound authority and access to limited knowledge, he could at least uncover the basic truths of this galaxy—for now.

Determined, Kallus strode to his command seat. As he sat down, he cast a sharp, knowing glance at the Red Empress, nodding to her in acknowledgment. Closing his eyes, he silenced his thoughts and focused intently on the Authority of Knowledge, ready to uncover the truths he so desperately sought.

STAR FLEET

FLAGSHIP FALCON

While Kallus was deep in his search for answers to questions that had troubled him for a long time, the atmosphere at Star Fleet headquarters was vastly different. It was one of celebration—if not outright euphoria. Just days before the pivotal meeting with the Void Fleet, uncertainty had clouded their minds. No one in Star Fleet could predict the outcome of the encounter, nor could they anticipate what the enigmatic Void Fleet would bring to the table. All they knew was that the Void Fleet was a friendly party, but the unknown always carries an edge of apprehension.

Through their own observations and analysis of the Void Fleet’s movements, Star Fleet had gathered fragments of data. Their sensors had detected vast amounts of energy fluctuations radiating from the Void Fleet’s ships—far beyond anything they had seen before. The scale and sophistication of the fleet were daunting, and it was clear that these newcomers wielded power on an entirely different level. There had been silent concerns—what if the Void Fleet intended to seize control of Earth? What if this meeting wasn’t the beginning of friendship but of subjugation?

Those fears, however, were firmly dispelled during the meeting. The discussions that unfolded didn’t just put Star Fleet at ease; they also opened doors to opportunities they had never imagined. What began as tentative talks evolved into a partnership: the foundations of the Void-Star Earth Alliance. Not only did Star Fleet secure its place in this alliance, but it also gained equal footing with the Void Fleet—a rare and remarkable achievement given the sheer disparity in power between the two parties.

The agreement even granted Star Fleet the prestigious title of co-founder within the alliance. Though the details of the partnership were still in flux and required careful planning and future negotiations, one thing was certain: this alliance would change everything for Earth and its people. For the first time in history, humanity had the chance to play a pivotal role in the broader galactic stage, standing shoulder to shoulder with a power as formidable as the Void Fleet.

The celebration wasn’t just about the alliance; it was also about hope. The formation of this partnership hinted at a brighter future—one where Earth wouldn’t just survive but thrive in the galaxy. Resources, technology, and knowledge that were once unimaginable were now within reach. It was a moment of triumph, a validation of humanity’s potential and adaptability in the face of the unknown.

But even amidst the jubilant atmosphere, there was an undercurrent of responsibility. Star Fleet’s leaders understood that this alliance came with challenges. To truly uphold their position as equals in the Void-Star Earth Alliance, they would need to rise to the occasion, innovate, and strengthen their capabilities. The road ahead was uncertain, but it was filled with promise. And for the first time in a long while, humanity wasn’t walking that road alone.

Chancellor Bai Zong Qi’s voice resonated through the chamber, a calm yet commanding presence that demanded attention. ”While the alliance is undoubtedly of mutual benefit to both us and the Void Fleet,” he began, his tone steady and deliberate, ”we must remember that partnerships thrive on reciprocity. This is not a dependency; it is an exchange. As we stand to gain, so too must we be prepared to allocate our resources fairly.”

A ripple of acknowledgment moved through the assembly. Heads nodded, quiet murmurs of agreement filled the air, and the gravity of his words settled over the room. Bai Zong Qi’s tone grew more resolute, underscoring his commitment to the cause.

”There is much to discuss before we finalize the full structure of this alliance between us(star fleet) and the Void Fleet. However, our preliminary meeting with Imperial Commander Kallus has already set a strong agenda for moving forward. While we cannot yet envision the complete framework of the Void Star-Earth Alliance, one thing remains clear: the potential benefits are immense and mutual.”

He paused, allowing his words to sink in, the weight of his declaration spreading through the chamber like a dense mist, enveloping all in its inevitability. Then, he shifted focus, his voice steady but firm, addressing the contributions Earth must be prepared to make.

”Consider, for instance, the merit system proposed by Commander Kallus. It is an excellent mechanism—efficient, fair, and rewarding of merit. But it comes with its own demands. To ensure its success, we must be willing to contribute equally—not merely through governance but also through tangible resources, including the rewards that the system promises.”

His gaze swept the room, a silent challenge lingering in his eyes. ”This alliance, if nurtured with care and commitment, will mark the beginning of a new era. But we must remember: what we reap will be determined by what we sow. The Void Fleet comes to this table as equals. Let us rise to meet them with the same resolve.”

Baui Zong Qi named his most trusted advisors and called out to them Minister of Defense, General Huo, Bring Foreign Minister Li Mei, And call Admiral Zhao Wei, the steadfast commander of our naval forces,” his voice firm and resolute.

”I’ll leave the future discussions with the Void Fleet about the alliance to you three,” Bai said, his tone heavy with expectation.
