STAR
WARS
——
The Galactic Republic has ruled the Galaxy for more than 25,000 years, bringing prosperity, wealth, and security to the entire Galaxy.
However, in its Tens of Thousands of Years of history, the Republic has never established a centralized and efficient Administrative System. Bureaucracy, oligarchy, and loose government organization have made the Republic into a huge bubble.
Grand, gorgeous, colorful, but fragile.
Rather than a Country, the Galactic Republic is more like a Loose Alliance of Sovereign Planets. Countless hidden dangers lie beneath this flashy appearance.
Starting from the most developed Star Region in the central location of the Galaxy, the Galaxy is roughly divided into the Core Worlds, Inner Rim, Mid Rim and Outer Rim. The closer to the Galactic Edge, the poorer and more numerous.
The Galactic Republic's countless contradictions have a real undercurrent: the contradiction between the poor and backward Outer Rim Planets and the developed and rich Inner Rim and Core Worlds.
This is also the contradiction between the exploiter and the exploited. Separatist Forces begin to rise gradually.
But before such contradictions finally push the Republic to the end, a Huge Spaceship lands in the Moddell sector on the edge of the Galaxy, which will bring a storm here...
An X is marked representing unknown.
...
You must make a choice... Tang Xiao."
"The stars are burning, people are suffering, every day there are Millions of Innocent People die...And now, the fate of the opportunity is in front of you, do you choose to accept, or refuse?" A Low and Mysterious Voice suddenly rings.
Tang Xiao found himself standing in the Endless Starry Sky, overlooking the foot countless shining stars. "I am in a dream? Accept? Accept what?" He put his hands in front of his eyes, some unreal but also very real.
Suddenly, a Huge Warship flew from his head!
This Warship is so massive that light is flying over his head for a full minute! Countless Cold Cannons adjusted their direction, followed by a shot out of its whole body, which was also more than ten times as significant!
There is another Fleet in front, and the two sides are in a fierce firefight! Countless Laser Beams instantly filled the whole space, and the original quiet Starry Sky was torn to pieces!
Interstellar Starfighters also began to take off, like flies in the Huge Warship flying around, engaging, constantly exploding into flashes of light.
All this is silent in the Universe, but it is still cruel to bear!
Heavy Artillery hit the Battleship over Tang Xiao's head, the Outer Armor was torn, and the flames began to spread. He could clearly see the Crew, who had been sucked out by the vacuum struggling desperately in the Cold Space.
"This is .." Tang Xiao looked at the other Fleet in the distance, those Huge Battleships with triangular hulls and tall bridges, surrounded by countless H-shaped starfighters.
The memory was suddenly opened, and he was shocked, "TIE Starfighters! Imperial-class Star Destroyers! This is... the Cosmic Battlefield of「Star Wars」!!"
Suddenly, everything around him was broken and disappeared like glass, and Tang Xiao found himself back in the bright starry sky just now. However, from his perspective, he could clearly see that every Planet was constantly on fire, and the Mushroom Clouds of Nuclear Explosions were rising and falling.
"You have made your choice, and fate will reward you." The Low and Mysterious Voice rang out again.
"Hello!! What did you ask me to choose? I haven't chosen yet. Hello...?" Tang Xiao had not finished his sentence, his whole body was sucked into the past, and he was still spinning.
It felt terrible, like being thrown into a toilet and flushed away.
"Hello!! Put me back ~~~~~~~~~~"
...
[The target Galaxy has been reached, the name is unknown, and the coordinates are unknown.]
[Start the Planet scanning function. The Moon's diameter is 4900 Kilometers, and it orbits a Gas Giant. The rotation period is 18 standard hours, and the orbital period is 402 standard days.]
[The atmospheric composition is A2, suitable for human breathing. The primary terrain is forest, mountain, savannah, and plains. The surface water coverage rate is 8%. The surface of the Moon is primary geology, with signs of violent crustal activities.]
[Conclusion: The Moon is a Habitable Planet for humans, but it is too small to meet the needs of Social Development. The comprehensive rating is B+.]
[The Hyperspace Core has an unknown condition and loses response. The Mothership will not be able to migrate before re-establishing contact. The cruise is terminated, and the Interstellar Colonization Process has begun.]
[According to Chapter 7, Article 1 of the Interstellar Colonization Act, when the AI determines that the Colonization Process can be started, it needs to wake up the Supreme Commander, who is fully responsible for the Colonization Work.]
[Wake up the Supreme Commander, the Hibernation Recovery Process is in progress...]
[Hello, Supreme Commander Tang Xiao.]
Hearing someone calling himself, Tang Xiao woke up from his dream. His brain seemed to have exploded and contained a lot of things.
Management, psychology, sociology, primary agriculture, essential industry and other miscellaneous knowledge almost made his head explode as if stuffed into his head.
A strong sense of discomfort made him open his eyes suddenly. He found that this was a white room, and he was lying in a glass warehouse, although narrow but very comfortable. The white light outside, which did not know the source of light, lit up the whole room.
Under the omnidirectional light, even the shadows were blurred and hard to see. Some unknown instruments were placed in the room, controlled by the automated robotic arm. Several pots of green plants were placed in the corner to make the atmosphere more fresh.
There was no doubt that no matter where this was, it would not be the Hotel where he had just gone to sleep.
"What happened..." Tang Xiao murmured to himself.
[You are the Supreme Commander of this Mothership, Mr. Tang Xiao. During your hibernation period, you have completed the study of the relevant managerial knowledge reserve. Now we have arrived at a Habitable Planet. Please decide whether to start the Colonization Process.] There came an Electronically Synthesized Elegant Female Voice.
"Who are you? Where am I?"
[I am the Mothership Core Control Computer. You are now in the living area of the Mothership, and here is the Medical Room for Administrators. After you are conscious, please go to the Bridge, and you can ask for nutrition if you need it.]
"Mothership? What Mothership?"
[This is a Huge Mothership with a Hyperspace Core for Interstellar Colonization, and the information about the Origin Civilization has disappeared. Now, this Mothership is yours, and all the Inhabitants and Crew are holding the tremendous honour to board the Mothership under your selection to start this interstellar journey.]
[There are 600,000 Hibernating Inhabitants and 50,000 Hibernating Crew Members in the Mothership. In any situation, the Mothership can wake up the Crew for emergency treatment. All the Inhabitants and Crew Members have been strictly selected and trained to master different professions to serve the Colonization Work better.]
[In addition, the Mothership has a Huge Embryo Bank, which contains 5 Billion different Human Embryos. Biotechnology can shorten the Embryo growth time to 10 years.]
[Now, the whole Mothership and everyone on it will serve you, Supreme Commander Tang Xiao.]
Tang Xiao's brain was still in chaos. First, he had a strange dream in which the voice asked him to choose something. Then he woke up and found himself in charge of a Super Mothership.
The Mothership can hold 600,000 people; how can you think it's small?
He struggled to stand up and came to the mirror on the bathroom table next to him. What he saw was a very sunny young man, but his face was a little pale.
The face was still his own face, but it seemed to have been carefully maintained. The skin was much more delicate. The hair and even the eyebrows were trimmed, looking very fresh.
He was wearing a white uniform with a gold inlaid lapel. The material was soft and rigid, and the weight was almost not felt on the body.
Have I... travelled? The words ripple in Tang Xiao's mind like thunder. His previous life, parents, friends, and everything else went up in smoke!
Tang Xiao now just wanted to calm down, he looked up to see the washstand and wanted to use cold water to wake up, but it started the temperature for hot water.
He wanted to reduce the water temperature, but couldn't find the switch in the whole body of the washstand, he immediately slapped on the unknown material of the mirror and patted his palm numb.
He looked up at the mirror, his eyes full of blood, and said: "The water temperature can adjusted to cold water, no, ice water! You can do it, right computer?"
[I am the Mothership Core Control Computer; you call me the Brain. The water temperature has been adjusted; please enjoy.]
The cold water poured on Tang Xiao's face, he woke up and, began to put these things together.
Obviously, the dreams before and now seem to have a specific connection. The Mysterious Voice let him choose, let alone whether he finally chooses or not choose. In any case, the voice said that choice and fate will give a reward.
Is this travel the reward?
Then choose me to do what? Tang Xiao remembered what he had experienced in his dream of the Fleet Battle in the Universe. Obviously, there are Spaceships and Warships in「Star Wars」.
Did I travel to「Star Wars」? If it is true that I'm in the Star Wars Universe, how can this Mothership survive?! If it is Monster-Like Doom Weapons, for example, Death Star, even if the「EVE」Titans come over, they cannot hold!
What is the end of the story? Tang Xiao was sitting in a daze in the Medical Cabin bed until the Brain began to urge.
[Supreme Commander, in the jump the Mothership had an unknown accident, now the supplies are very short, so if your body has recovered, please go to the Bridge to preside over the work. If your body still has a problem, I will call the Mothership's Medical Staff.]
"No, go to the Bridge, now." Tang Xiao sighed and stood up and said.
