Interstellar Warlord

Some people died, and that meant they were really dead!

When someone died, it might just be the beginning of another journey.

A moment ago, Li Qing was still holding a gray crystal that was covered in cracks and dry soil and gravel in a border jade raw material market and bargaining with the stall owner. In the next second, the entire world emitted a dazzling white light, and the world collapsed. Then, the gray crystal that was covered in cracks in his hand suddenly emitted a light, and a powerful suction force came over, sucking his soul into the crystal.

The reason why it was called a soul was because he had clearly seen his physical body being destroyed before he was swallowed by the crystal.

Then, under the illumination of billions of stars, he continued to sleep for an unknown number of years until…

When he woke up again, he was surprised to find that he had appeared in the body of a young man named Li Qing.

At first, he thought that it was a possession, but after receiving all the memories without any hindrance, he realized that it was not a possession, but reincarnation.

This Li Qing was that Li Qing. The two had the same origin. However, one was the main consciousness that was sleeping. The subconscious was reincarnated and was born as a human. When the main consciousness woke up, the subconscious would naturally return to the main consciousness.

Receiving the eighteen years of memories from his subconscious, Li Qing was surprised to discover the wonders of this new universe.

Yes, the New Cosmos.

In the first year of the New Milky Way Calendar, the old universe was destroyed, and a new universe was born. The Survival of the Galaxy began.

Similar to the many national survival novels that Li Qing had read on Qidian Chinese Network, all the humans on Earth, as well as many civilizations and races in the old universe, were transported to the new universe and began to survive in space from a simple colonization ship.

It was a magnificent era with many heroes. Countless human ancestors on Earth worked hard for the sake of humanity's foothold in this new universe.

Originally, Li Qing should have been one of those who had fought hard. However, the moment the old universe was destroyed and teleported away, the crystal in his hand that was filled with cracks suddenly opened up and sucked his soul into it.

What followed was ten thousand years of deep sleep. When he woke up, it was already the year 10018 of the new Milky Way Calendar. It had been ten thousand years since the Survival mission in the Starry Sea.

In the past 10,000 years, humans had experienced countless wars, experienced low ebb, and experienced glory. Countless pioneers had fought hard, and in the end, not only did they succeed in surviving in the universe, but they also established an extremely glorious civilization in the Emperor's Constellation Star Field, the fourth star field of the New Milky Way Galaxy, the Human United Empire, and joined the Star Alliance of the Humanoid Race in the New Milky Way Galaxy.

After tens of thousands of years of development, the current Human United Empire was very powerful. It was already one of the four permanent members of the Humanoid Star Alliance, which had thousands of civilizations of various sizes.

In the United Imperium of Human Beings, fourteen powerful suzerains of the cosmos were the families of the electors. The Council of Elders, which was formed by the 272 commanders of the cosmos, ruled the enormous United Imperium.

The so-called military leaders referred to the top families that owned private colonial planets and powerful private fleets. They were similar to the military governors or warlords in ancient times.

On the other hand, Li Qing's luck in this life was quite good.

He was born in the Qinghe Li family, one of the military leaders. The Qinghe referred to the Qinghe Galaxy, a prosperous galaxy with one natural planet, seven modified planets, more than ten large space residential stations, a total population of more than 80 billion, and more than 300 million active players.

The Qinghe Li family rose more than 300 years ago. Their ancestor, Li Gang, relied on his purple epic-grade innate talent to become famous early on. He had made a good career outside.

After that, he returned home and defeated his brothers to inherit the family business. He married into the Yin family of Shangqiu and his strength grew rapidly. More than 200 years ago, Li Gang participated in the empire's pioneering war and destroyed an alien civilization in the Fifth Faust Star Zone that had territorial disputes with the Human United Empire. He took over a Class 2 planet.

After 80 years of hard work, he was finally recognized by the empire and officially joined the Imperial Noble Council of Elders. He was promoted to a military commander and was named the Qinghe Li Family.

Li Qing was born in such a noble family, and his birth was considered good.

Unfortunately, he was not a direct descendant, but a side branch of the family, and he was born of a concubine.

He didn't even know who his mother was. His childhood memory was that he was brought back by his father. He had never seen or heard his father say who his mother was.

At first, he had some expectations, but as he grew up and his father's indifference over the years, he gradually understood that his mother probably did not come from a good family. He might not only be a bastard son, but he might also be an illegitimate child.

Fortunately, although his father and siblings were not happy, he was brought to the Qinghe Li family after all. No matter how bad his life was, it was much better than being a commoner outside.

Li Qing no longer had any hopes for his father. In the past ten years, Li Qing's greatest wish was to wait until he was 18 years old and become an adult. Then, according to the rules of the entire Human United Empire, all the descendants of the players who came to the New Cosmos from Earth would have to go out and explore as long as they successfully awakened their innate talent and obtained the identity of a player.

From the descendants of the fourteen Starry Sea Lords to the descendants of ordinary civilians, as long as they could successfully awaken their innate talents and obtain the identity of a player, they had to go out and explore.

Although the survival phase of the universe had passed and it was now the expansion phase of the universe, and the Human Alliance Empire had established a glorious civilization, they were still wary of danger in times of peace. The universe was not safe. The human civilization was only active in one of the spiral arms of the New Milky Way. There were a large number of alien civilizations in the other three spiral arms and the huge silver center of the New Milky Way.

Those civilizations, like mankind, were once members of the survival of the sea of stars. They had also survived, and their strength was not inferior to mankind's. Some of them were even more powerful than mankind in terms of comprehensive strength.

According to the Empire's rules, the descendants of the nobles could not rest on the merits of their ancestors. Any descendants of the nobles had to go out and explore. Their future status and inheritance rights in the family would be determined by their achievements. The period was three years, and the total period was ten years.

Of course, there would definitely be second-generation nobles who did not want to go. These nobles who were unwilling to develop would tacitly give up all inheritance rights.

Of course, Li Qing didn't count on the inheritance. What he wanted was the resources provided by the family when he went out to develop.

As a military family, all descendants would be provided with a frigate and an initial capital of 100 million star dollars when they went out to explore. This was what he was interested in.

Since he would not be able to achieve anything in the family, he might as well leave the family with the development funds and mingle outside. With a warship and a starting capital of 100 million, it was better than staying in the family.

For Kai Ta, 100 million was just a drop in the bucket. He couldn't even afford a destroyer.

However, if he did not have any extravagant hopes and took the money from the development to live outside, 100 million star dollars was definitely a huge sum of money. He could casually find a remote colonial planet to buy a large piece of land, buy some robots or clones to open a farm or ranch, and then marry a wife. He could live a comfortable life.

Originally, Li Qing had thought this way, but now that he was awake and had a cheat in his hand, he would definitely throw this thought aside.

Sitting in a room that was simply decorated but full of technology, Li Qing tapped his fingers on the table. A screen popped up, showing his bank account number. There was only 2.24 million on it, which was the pocket money he had saved over the years.

This was the difference between a wealthy family and an ordinary person. Even if he was just a bastard son who was never liked and did not have any property, his basic monthly salary alone exceeded that of most workers.

"But it's still a little too little."

This bit of money could not do much. He still had to wait for the development funds.

Closing the bank interface, Li Qing rubbed her chin. With a thought, she disappeared.

The surrounding space changed. Li Qing instantly appeared in the cold starry sky from his room. There was nothing in the surroundings except for the light source below. He lowered his head. Even though he had been sleeping here for more than ten thousand years, every time he saw him, he felt a shock that came from his soul.

At the center of the galaxy below him was not a star in a normal galaxy, but a super-huge universe miracle that was beyond his imagination.

It was a pure white sphere whose size could only be described in astronomical units, surrounded by…An extinguished star.

Extinguishing in the literal sense.

If it wasn't for the information transmitted to him by his Goldfinger Universe in the Palm, he wouldn't even know how to address this super high-dimensional fortress known as the Star Witnesses.

That's right, this thing's official name was 'Star Witness', and it was the only thing that could be seen in the Universe in the Palm. It was a super high-dimensional fortress from an ancient super god-level civilization that compressed an entire galaxy into its power…The remains of the monster!

Well, to be precise, it was damaged. It was too much to say that it was a wreckage. After all, the central system of this thing was still there, and there was still a very small part of its functions that could still be used.

With a thought, Li Qing turned into a stream of light and flew towards the wreckage of the Star Witnesses 'super high-dimensional fortress, which had replaced the light emitted by the stars and illuminated the galaxy. Its size could only be measured in astronomical units...

To be honest, as the master of the Universe in the Palm, he knew how terrifying the power of this thing in its perfect state was.

There was no need to use his poor imagination and vocabulary to describe it. As long as one knew that the energy core of this thing was a galaxy that was larger than the Milky Way, it was compressed. In its heyday, it was surrounded by millions of compressed stars and black holes for attack and defense. When it was fully activated, the terrifying gravity could forcefully pull a galaxy out of its original orbit. One would know how ridiculous it was.

Unfortunately, all of this was in the past. Even if this thing could be repaired, the conditions for repair...

It was fine if he did not say it.

As the master of the Universe in the Palm, Li Qing ignored the gravitational force of the extinguished stars floating around the high-dimensional fortress and directly entered the fortress. He appeared in a space surrounded by streams of light.

The space was empty. Outside the flowing light, there were countless flowing lights that moved irregularly. He did not know what they were because he could not enter or know them at the moment. He could only move in this small space of less than 1,000 square meters and enter a certain undamaged area inside the pile of remains that still maintained its complete form.

That was a part of the dock of the super high-dimensional fortress. He did not know how big it used to be, but he knew that the remaining part had a shipbuilding capacity of 2300. It could be used to build two Titan flagships at the same time, or 110 battleships and 2300 frigates at the same time.

Moreover, this super shipyard came from a super god-level civilization. It came with a super complete production line for weapons and accessories. Other than ships, it could also produce blueprints and accessories, such as missiles and shells.

But...

Although the Universe in the Palm looked shocking, it could only be used as a logistics base.

With materials, blueprints, and professional shipbuilding skills, they could use the shipyard here to build warships.

Other than that, this thing could only be used as a super warehouse before it was repaired. It could open a passage and store things with a diameter of no more than ten kilometers into the universe in the palm. It was only limited to non-living things such as debris and meteorites. It could not take the initiative to store enemy warships.

Of course, it would be a different matter if the enemy took the initiative to crawl into a gap.

However, under normal circumstances, no one would take the initiative to go to an unknown place.

The Universe in the Palm came from an unknown supreme god-level civilization in an unknown era.

Normally speaking, the universe would come to an end after countless years. The old universe would be destroyed, and a new universe would be born in the singularity.

But sometimes, there would be some super civilizations in the universe who were unwilling to accept the end of their civilization. They would think of ways to build some ultimate technological products that could survive the end of the universe.

Almost all the super civilizations had failed, but there were also some who succeeded.

The crystal ball he obtained, the Universe in the Palm, was a divine weapon of a super civilization that had successfully crossed the epoch but was about to be destroyed.

He did not know the name of the civilization, because although the divine weapon of this super civilization had successfully avoided the end of the era, it was already severely damaged. When he first entered, there was only a solar system wrapped in endless terrifying storms with countless extinguished star cores floating inside, as well as a super high-dimensional fortress that was dilapidated and on the verge of collapse.

After 10,000 years of slumber, the universe in the palm had stabilized and stopped collapsing.

Strictly speaking, they had avoided the end of the era, but it was still unknown whether the super god-tier civilization still existed.

Regardless of whether the super god-tier civilization still existed or not, the Universe in the Palm was now Li Qing's. He was now the master of the Universe in the Palm.

With this Universe in a Palm, he naturally wouldn't be willing to be ordinary like the subconsciousness.

Although it was no longer the survival phase in the sea of stars, there were still strong enemies in the universe. Moreover, with the end of the survival phase in the sea of stars, the rules of the new universe were gradually perfected. It was a good opportunity for him to show his skills.
