Global Era of Star Trekking

Chapter 549: Chapter 292: Top Rank Starry Sea Secret Realm [Law Tree]

“`

Based on some information that Song Chi knew, two thousand years ago, the Eagle Family still had enough control over the Golden Wind Star Domain, but over the past thousand years, this control had been continuously weakening.

According to the reports of the intelligence department under the External Affairs Hall of the family, the Golden Wind Star Domain is now considered the most chaotic among all the star domains within the duchy.

As for the reason, over ninety percent of the duchy’s citizens would attribute it to the internal power struggles within the Eagle Family, and this was no secret to the middle and high-ranking officials of the entire duchy.

However, interestingly, the intelligence department of the Song Family’s External Affairs Hall had a different explanation.

Internal power strife within the Eagle Family was only one of the reasons. Additionally, the heads of other star domains within the duchy also intentionally supported certain forces within the Golden Wind Star Domain.

…

In such circumstances, the order within the Golden Wind Star Domain naturally wasn’t good…

As for why they would do this?

It’s simply because of their covetousness for this star domain, which spans over 4,000 light-years in diameter.

While various powers under the Torch Human Civilization might extend their influences in Alien Star Domains, how could those territories in the unknown Alien Territories be compared with the domains within the internal community of the Torchlight Humanity galaxy cluster?

To put it simply, the territories controlled in Alien Star Domains are just like duckweed without roots, where one could easily encounter various kinds of existential crises, and usually, it’s the kind that results in the deaths of millions of members of a force.

Throughout the long history of Torch Human Civilization, such events have happened far too many times.

For example, the Dinghai Song Family had such an incident a few hundred years ago.

If I remember correctly, it was about a Fifth Rank resource Floating Land where an Alien Star Domain development area was established. According to records, the development area had lasted for nearly three hundred years with millions of family members under its command. However, it was wiped out overnight by an unknown civilization’s fleet. Even a Fourth Rank Clan Elder stationed there fell, with more than ninety percent of the millions of clan members slaughtered.

In response, although the family sent numerous investigation teams later, only a handful of people returned, with the final result being summed up in just one sentence.

“Suspected to be a High-level Alien civilization of a technological aspect, do not engage in conflict!”

It is precisely because such events occur from time to time that territories within the internal community of Torchlight Humanity are so precious.

With the vast expanse of Torch Human Civilization backing them, at the very least, no High-level Alien civilization would dare to openly invade the Torch Human territories and massacre Torch Human citizens.

Without continuing to think about these things, Song Chi controlled the Cang Qiong and burst out of the Transfer Station, quickly disappearing into the eternal darkness of the outside world.

Once some distance from the Star Gate Transfer Station, the [Purple River Translocation Device] was activated.

The Golden Lion Star Domain was developed hundreds of years earlier than the Dinghai Star Domain, and its area is only larger, not smaller, with a diameter exceeding two thousand light-years. If one were to actually travel through the Starry Sea using a warship’s lightspeed cruise, it would take at least two thousand years, and even a Fourth Rank Torch Ship Captain would be exhausted to death.

The Lv30 [Purple River Translocation Device] has a maximum translocation distance of 100 light-years, which, to be honest, is quite ordinary. It is said that enhanced Fourth Rank or higher Orange Quality translocation components could translocate hundreds to nearly a thousand light-years in a single jump.

Nevertheless, Song Chi found this acceptable. Including the components’ buffer time, it would take just over a month at most.

As for the Golden Lion Star Domain’s star charts, the family had always been updating them in real time, and Song Chi had prepared for this in advance.

Since the current [Peeping Spirit Eyes] no longer had the “Star Chart Collector” feature, he naturally wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.

The order within the Golden Lion Star Domain is very good. Over the span of more than a month, no hitches occurred en route.

However, after successfully transporting to the Golden Wind Star Domain via the southern transfer station of the Golden Lion, another ten days passed.

After arriving at the Golden Wind Star Domain, Song Chi’s actions remained the same as before, relying solely on the [Purple River Translocation Device] to make the journey. Whenever the component entered buffering, he would directly comprehend the Law of Space in the suspended Cang Qiong.

The Golden Wind Star Domain was much larger than the Golden Lion Star Domain; a preliminary estimate suggested it would probably take over two months to cross this star domain. However, fortunately, once he reached the transfer station at the other end of the Golden Wind Star Domain, the next stop would be a direct route to the Duchy Capital, the “Golden Dragon Star Domain.”

Song Chi only prayed that he would have good luck over the next two months and not get involved in any unexpected incidents.

But things did not go as he wished.

Half a month later, in the Golden Dragon Star Domain, the Yellow Rock Star Region.

Withdrawing his spiritual focus from the Law Crystal, Song Chi frowned and turned his gaze toward the radar image displayed by the [Peeping Spirit Eyes].

“The Yellow Rock Floating Land Fragment Belt was mined out two thousand years ago and has been of no interest for a thousand years. How could we encounter such troublesome matters just by stopping here?”

On the radar image, tens of millions of kilometers away from where the Cang Qiong was hiding, a group of Torch warships were rapidly approaching.

The ten or so warships were divided into two groups. Leading one group was a cruiser and two escort ships; following them were ten warships led by two cruisers, chasing each other all the way into the Yellow Rock Fragment Belt.

Occasionally, a beam or two of light would shoot from the depths of the starry sky, striking the surrounding fragments and causing violent explosive impacts.

Without much thought, and not wanting to get involved in these complications, Song Chi immediately recalled the Cang Qiong and then entered the Ruins Market.

However, before entering the Ruins Market, he left behind two Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines at the original location. Both were stamped with a brainwave imprint and equipped with individual plasma shields, so that he would be informed in time about any subsequent events.
