T112 Death Star.

This was an asteroid never listed on any star chart.

The entire planet was a massive solid alloy. It was formed from naturally occurring super-alloy minerals, and its surface hardness was extremely high. It did not emit light or heat. Before its discovery, it drifted through the universe like a ghost.

But during the Great Chaos, an adventure team traversing the universe discovered it. Because it contained a large amount of alloy minerals, it was sold as a mining star. After several collections, only slag remained on this planet. When the Romick family obtained it, it no longer had much value. However, its basic hardness gave the third-generation head of the Romick family an idea, so he began to transform it.

This was a vast and lengthy project that spanned three generations. The Romick family re-smelted the entire planet's slag. The celestial body was forged into a complete fortress, incorporating all the high technology the Romick family could obtain at the time. They also added hundreds of millions of thrusters and warp devices to this planet, making it a mobile behemoth.

Thus, it became the most shocking cosmic weapon before the Great Chaos, the Death Star.

Admittedly, in today's universe, the Death Star is no longer the decisive force. But its deterrent power, inherited from ancient times, still remains. The existence of a Death Star is like a shadow drifting from ancient times, enough for the Romick family to consider it their greatest trump card.

How could Blood瞳's visit to such a planet not attract Carrie's attention?

In fact, it was because of this planet that White Eyes initiated the Waterfall Bridge battle, which shows how important this planet is to the Romick family. Even with Blood瞳's current status, Carrie had to think twice about such a request.

However, Carrie ultimately agreed.

Simply because the situation was different. Because of Marklata, the T112 Death Star had transformed from the Romick family's guardian deity into a massive time bomb, ready to explode at any moment. Therefore, its deterrent significance no longer existed.

Since that was the case, what harm was there in letting Blood瞳 see it?

Of course, the countless treasures hidden by the Romick family in T112 could not be shown to Blood瞳, only Marklata.

In an unfamiliar starry sky, a small shuttle was flying at high speed. Blood瞳 sat in the shuttle's bridge, and beside him, Five's Cowboy and Carrie chatted easily, occasionally saying a few words to Blood瞳.

They had been away from Seraridon for half a month and would soon arrive at their destination, the Fifth World's most mysterious Black Triangle Star Region.

This was a star region that had never been fully explored. The entire star region was filled with terrifying legends. Everywhere in this star region was filled with intense radiation and dreaded, terrifying star beasts. Countless fleets had disappeared in this star region from before the Great Chaos until now, giving it a notorious reputation in the Fifth World, causing people to turn pale at its mention.

However, only a few people in the Fifth World knew that there were actually some safe zones in this star region. Therefore, these safe zones were occupied by various major families and used as safes to preserve their last secrets.

The G771 coordinates they were heading to were such a place.

The Death Star, T112, hiding the Romick family's last secret, was located there.

The journey was a bit monotonous, but after half a month of travel, they finally arrived at this dreaded star region. With the final warp jump, a dark, lightless starry sky appeared before them.

There were no light-emitting or heat-generating celestial bodies. The entire starry sky was like a dead zone.

On the shuttle, the detector emitted a piercing alarm, indicating the detection of high-intensity radiation.

“G771 is densely packed with high-radiation nebulae, so we can't see anything. Here, ordinary positioning instruments will all fail, and most detectors will lose their effectiveness.” Carrie's graceful voice sounded behind Blood瞳. She softly explained to Blood瞳.

“Don't be fooled by the calm here, but I guarantee that if you appear in this starry sky, you will attract terrifying predatory star beasts in less than an hour. No one has ever escaped from their mouths.”

“Predatory star beasts?” Blood瞳 turned his head and repeated in confusion.

He had never seen real star beasts. The star beast encountered at X35 didn't count; that was just a juvenile. So he didn't know how terrifying these creatures were.

“Star beasts are the collective name for creatures that roam the universe,” Carrie explained softly. “Generally, they are not very aggressive. However, predatory star beasts are an exception. You can think of them as a school of piranhas. They will attack any creature that appears in their territory. These terrible little guys' teeth can bite through alloys, so ordinary ships are not safe either.”

“Not even cosmic warriors?”

“Cosmic warriors are naturally an exception, because you all possess powerful individual strength and are small targets. So it's relatively safe. Of course, it's just relatively safe. If you go too deep, even a comet-class warrior might encounter trouble. People who have never seen star beasts in person will never imagine how terrifying they are.”

“Then I'll have to see it for myself.” Blood瞳 took a deep breath, a gleam flashing in his eyes. He had seen countless mutated beasts at X35, and the blood of a hunter already flowed in his veins. Hearing about such novel creatures naturally piqued his interest.

But this was just his idea. Carrie naturally wouldn't put herself in danger.

“This shuttle has been specially modified. It can shield its own signal and uses optical camouflage. So we are invisible to these star beasts. As long as we don't get too close, we will be very safe.” Carrie said softly, then said something to the captain next to her.

The captain immediately agreed and activated some device.

A faint blue shield rose outside the porthole. Blood瞳 suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, as if something was separating them. He knew that this was the effect of optical camouflage. His original armor also had this function, so it was not unfamiliar.

But Blood瞳 was still a little disappointed. He originally wanted to see these star beasts, but Carrie's actions obviously eliminated the opportunity.

However, safety was naturally the priority at the moment. With optical camouflage, the next journey was uneventful. The shuttle silently glided through the dark starry sky, like a deep-sea fish. It only took a little over an hour to reach its destination.

A dark, lightless planet appeared on the light screen.

It was a small asteroid, only tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter. In Blood瞳's eyes, it was quietly suspended, with nothing remarkable about it. Hundreds of black dots floated around the asteroid, occasionally trying to approach it, but each time they approached, they were hit by a beam of light and fled in a panic.

T112 Death Star, arrived.

Those black dots floating around were star beasts. Because of the distance, Blood瞳 couldn't visually determine their shape. But judging from the intensity of the Death Star's beams they could withstand, these little guys were definitely surprisingly strong.

The latest novel is first published on 69shuba.!

“T112 is a high-density, high-gravity celestial body. A simple assessment is seven hundred times the standard gravity. So to enter, you must activate the anti-gravity field.” Carrie said softly from the side. “Those little guys are attracted by the energy of the anti-gravity field. We need a little time to wait for them to be dispersed before entering.”

“Won't that attract more star beasts?” Blood瞳 asked strangely. At X35, mutated creatures often came in groups, and attacking one would attract a bunch.

“This is the outer perimeter of G771. There aren't that many star beasts.” Carrie laughed, pointing to the black dots on the light screen. “There are only these nearby. There won't be too much danger.”

“That's good.” Five's Cowboy interjected, wiping the gun in his hand. “These little things are quite scary. I just glanced at the data. Their fleshly bodies are comparable to battleship armor. It would be troublesome to be entangled by them.”

“Hehe… darling, are you also afraid?” Carrie gave Five's Cowboy a flirtatious look, smiling charmingly.

“I'm just afraid of hurting you…” Five's Cowboy replied with a cheeky face. Regardless of how many people were around, he stepped forward and gave Carrie a passionate kiss.

Seeing the fiery passion of the two, the surrounding crew consciously became wooden figures, each bowing their heads and working non-stop.

Blood瞳 couldn't help but shake his head and smile wryly. What a perfect match. It was estimated that only a man like Five's Cowboy could mingle with Carrie like this. Both of them had unrestrained personalities. Lust…

The expulsion work was completed quickly. In just a moment, the T112 Death Star sent a signal that they could enter. Looking around, the star beasts surrounding the Death Star had disappeared at some point. Two pale yellow tractor beams were emitted from the Death Star.

The shuttle's hull vibrated slightly and quickly slid into the designated orbit.

The process of entering the Death Star was uneventful. After the shuttle came to a stop, Blood瞳 found that they had arrived at a wide dock. Two rows of figures stood quietly on the dock. The one in front was a burly man two meters tall, with a fierce face and wearing a clean blue military uniform. Seeing Carrie disembark, he snapped to attention.

“Romick Family, Third Third Fleet, T112 Death Star Garrison, Colonel Kent, welcome Miss.”

“Welcome Miss.” The two rows of soldiers behind him shouted in unison, the atmosphere was enthusiastic.

Carrie smiled slightly. These soldiers were all loyal to the Romick family, having received the family's systematic education from a young age. They had extremely excellent combat power and loyalty. It could be said that they were the Romick family's last trump card. As long as they were there, the Romick family would not perish.

So her expression was naturally very good, and she nodded slightly to the strong man in front. “Thank you for your hard work, Colonel Kent.”

“Willing to serve Miss.” Kent replied with a serious face, a tough military image. Then he asked loudly, “I wonder what Miss's purpose is this time?”

“Open safe 11973-s2 for me. I want to check.” Involving family secrets, Carrie also became serious. She reached out and handed over a golden necklace.

It was the Death Star's key.

Looking at this necklace, a gleam flashed in Kent's eyes. “As you wish.”

“But, only for you personally.”
