Chapter 911: Brilliant Stars (Part 1)_1

The Large Magellanic Cloud, also known as the Large Magellanic System, belongs to dwarf galaxies. Among the numerous satellite galaxies of the Milky Way, it is an extremely famous one, with the largest mass, roughly about one-twentieth of that of the Milky Way.

The Large Magellanic System is the fourth largest galaxy in our galaxy group, next only to Triangulum Galaxy, Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxy. It is also the location of the main star of the Kree Empire, one of the Three Great Empires of the Universe.

The entire Large Magellanic Cloud has been transformed by the Kree Empire into their military base. The Kree Empire's main star, where Supreme Wisdom resides, is heavily fortified.

The Large Magellanic System is generally observed as an irregular galaxy, but it also presents evidence of a bar-shaped structure. Through the astronomical telescopes of the Human race, the Large Magellanic System exhibits a beautiful spindle-shaped arc of light. The brightest nebula located at the end of the spiral arm is exactly where the main star of the Kree Empire is situated.

The Kree Empire has over two thousand star harbours in the Large Magellanic Cloud, half of which are military star ports used to dock the warships of Kree Empire.

However, due to the Kree Empire's continual expansion and colonization over the past thousand years, half of these two thousand star ports are in a stagnant condition, and only about two to three hundred military ports are still extensively active.

The recorded civilization period of the Kree Empire is not as long as that of the Skrull Empire. They are a vibrant civilization, the vast majority of Kree have blue skin. There are also Kree with white or pink skin, product of mixed-race, but blue skin remains predominant.

The ruler of the Kree Empire is named Supreme Wisdom, a civilization created by Kree, a condensed product of knowledge, science, technology, and culture, still ruling the Kree Empire today.

Because the ultimate ruler of this empire is an intelligent life-form, the entire race has essentially reached a level of unity, wherein each Kree is just a component of the vast machinery of the Kree Empire. All Kree people act in accordance with collective consciousness, aiming for utmost devotion and highest efficiency as the ultimate goal of life.

Also just because of the existence of Supreme Wisdom, the protection of its main star by Kree Empire has reached an extremely stringent level. The No.1 Starport of the Kree Empire was specifically set up to resist the impact of extraterrestrial warfare.

The Skrulls and Kree had engaged in a war that lasted for a millennium. Both races, in this war, have developed incomparable interstellar defense technology. Just like the arms race that once emerged on Earth, both sides have reached the apex in terms of the techniques for attacking and defending each other's star ports.

The No.1 Starport of Kree Empire in the Large Magellanic Cloud is located at the end of the Spider Nebula in the newly born star zone of the Large Magellanic system.

This densely clustered nebula, structured like a spider with several arms, was developed into a star zone in the early stages of the Kree Empire's settlement in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

This beautiful and splendid nebula has been floating in the vast and deep universe for thousands of years. Every Kree person holds different sentiments for this place, it's their homeland and where their glory lies.

In the command room of First Star Harbor, a Kree soldier marches through the corridor. After the identity confirming scanner at the entrance recognizes him, the robust mechanical gate opens. He steps in, standing at attention and gives a military salute of the Kree Empire. Then he speaks:

"Sir, the inspection fleet will soon arrive. Reception ships have all been deployed. You may board the ship three minutes from now or before the hatch closes in twenty minutes."

The Kree officer standing before him is quite young, dressed in the uniform of a military officer, with an insignia on his shoulder. The design on the insignia indicates that he is not a very senior officer, but the Kree soldier treats him with high respect nonetheless.

The young Kree officer nods and says, "The commanders of the Accuser Team are coming to inspect the First Star Harbor. The Accuser Team represents the will of Supreme Wisdom and is the leader and vanguard of the Kree Empire. Their inspection requires us to present our best side."

The soldier immediately salutes and says, "Rest assured, sir, starting from a month ago, we have renovated all the old facilities of the star-port, upgraded the smart surveillance system of the star-port, replaced all Kree soldiers with the most advanced equipment, and to celebrate the great birth of the Accuser Team, we have changed all weapon paintwork and spaceship paintwork to festive patterns."

"By the way, has the martial music to be played at the star-port been prepared? We must remember, back in the day, the Accuser Team decisively defeated the powerful fleet of Skrulls amidst resounding Kree Empire's military songs, sending them fleeing in despair."

The young Kree officer lifts his chin and paces around the control room. He says, "Hoffman of the Seventh Star Harbor has always been competing with me for a reserve position in the Accuser Team. Another inspection ship of the Accuser Team has gone there."

"I would like to gain an advantage, and merely refurbishing the star port and changing paintwork is not enough. I believe passionate military music can awaken the Accuser Team's memories of their glorious past, and that is my secret weapon."

The soldier immediately salutes and says, "I will immediately inform the ship to play the martial music as soon as the inspection fleet arrives."

The young Kree officer nods in satisfaction. He waves his hand and says, "Go ahead, I will change my clothes and get ready to board the ship and greet the great Accuser."
