“…… It's a pity, Grand Duke, that we alone can't parse the technology used in this strange chest......"

In a hidden galaxy, a group of scientific research teams from nowhere are trembling to report their findings.

It is normal to know nothing about unknown technology research in the galaxy, after all, no one knows if there are some civilizations that like to study black technology just to watch future generations rack their brains for fun, and specially organize some meaningless but extremely difficult mysteries to solve.

However, the eyes of these researchers are full of fear, and the bodies that should be perfectly controlled are also trembling irrepressibly, and the ability to control the emotions of genetic modification seems to be completely invisible to them.

There is no other reason, because the shadow sitting on the high seat opposite them is the rumored leader of the underworld forces who "kills people like hemp but asks what a person is" - the Grand Duke of Silver Star.

It's not so easy to overcome the fear instinct in genes, and how to remove the "fear of death" from the genes without leaving any future problems is also a problem that galactic biologists are currently tackling.

Faced with the threat of death for "failing to complete their duties", the scientific research team was also extremely frightened.

However, while they were waiting for the death verdict, the leader of the underworld miraculously let them go.

“…… That's fine, this is something I expected, and I never expect you idiots to lie down on the 'return ship' by yourself, and you can get out of the way after a while......"

The surprise caused the research team to freeze in place, and it took a while for them to leave the place as if they had been pardoned.

And as the group of scientists disappeared into the hall, the light of the stars also shot in as the ship's course changed.

Little by little, the light climbed the stairs, eventually illuminating the figure on the throne.

He was the Grand Duke of Silverstar, an "independent man" who did not belong to any civilization.

He drove his car, formed a force with a group of greedy followers, and mixed up in the black world of the galaxy, faintly becoming an existence similar to the "curator" and "virtual realm walker".

They can take over all kinds of dirty work that is inconvenient to talk about, and therefore they have a lot of "customer lists" that can cause a sensation in their hands, which is one of the reasons why they can still maintain their independence, and those powerful people are their best helpers in secret.

Even if any civilization is determined to eradicate this cancer, it will terminate its operation for unknown reasons, which is still one of the mysteries of the galaxy so far.

Some people think that the Grand Duke made some kind of deal with those civilizations to be able to survive, but the actual reason is only clear to those who have experienced it.

That is, his car has an extraordinary terrifying power, even enough to make a civilization pay a terrible price.

He was able to mix to this level 99% of the time thanks to this battleship-like but non-battleship-like spaceship, which was named "Bright Star".

But only the Grand Duke himself understands the true name of this spaceship-

"- 'Stellar Engineering Equipment Type B', how long will it take for you to be fully charged?"

Yes, his spaceship, which has terrified countless warship commanders, does not have a lofty name, nor is it some "bright star" of the second middle school, but is very simply called "engineering equipment".

Hearing his inquiry, the automaton board the spacecraft listed a number, which translates to about thirty-six Earth days.

In the past, the Grand Duke was too late to be happy about such a short charging time, but at this time, his face was clouded and he looked very anxious.

At this time, from the perspective of the galaxy, you can see that the Grand Duke's car is hovering above a star, and the hull of what seems to be the cargo of the galaxy has been revealed at some point, revealing strange geometric edges and corners.

The strange ring-shaped device slightly lassoed a portion of the star and expanded the star at a slow but firm rate as a beam of light shot straight at the star from the spacecraft.

This is how his car is charged, inducing a supernova explosion of a star, and then using a kind of stellar remnant after the supernova explosion, the neutron star, as the power of the spacecraft.

At one time, a neutron star was tied to the ship's toroidal device, and the material of the neutron star was extracted in a way that the Grand Duke could not understand, and then sailed through it.

This is the origin of his spaceship's "Bright Star", and it is also the origin of his "Silver Star" title, after all, it is handsome to walk with a neutron star.

However, due to a mistake by him, the bound neutron star was released by him, and it flew towards uninhabited deep space at a speed of 20,000 kilometers per second, and he couldn't catch up.

The current spacecraft is navigating on the last remaining neutron star matter, and even the transition engines on the spacecraft cannot work again.

In order to keep the spacecraft from "running aground" in space, the Grand Duke is almost desperately using the spacecraft to induce a supernova explosion and then recover the neutron star.

It's not that he is unwilling to use the ready-made neutron stars in the galaxy, but simply because those known neutron stars are too far away, and the neutron star material stored in the spacecraft is no longer enough to sail here, so he can only rely on the function of the spacecraft itself to expect to create a neutron star to supply navigation.

However, this method is not very stable, and so far he has created two black holes and more than a dozen white dwarfs, with the exception of no neutron stars.

In addition to the dilemma of running out of fuel, the Grand Duke gradually discovers a terrifying fact as the galactic events progress.

That is, his car seems to be very unusual.

At one point, he thought it was the ship of some dying Lost Empire, after all, the leap engine that came and went without a trace seemed to be a technology that only the Lost Empire could control.

However, when he hides in a galaxy corner to watch the drama of "Unexpected Enemy", he discovers that the means used by "Accidental Enemy" seem to be very similar to his car when the "CPU" of "Guardian" explodes.

Not similar, but identical! Even the ship type has a very high degree of overlap! This made him realize what was "what" made him stand out.

Although it has not yet been exposed, he knows that when someone comes to his senses, it is almost certain that he will be found.

At that time, there will be no second end for him except destruction, who will give life to those suspected of being "accidental enemies"? At that time, even those powerful people who have mastered the black material by him will not be able to protect him.

So in order to survive, in addition to causing more and more crazy supernova explosions, he also pinned his hopes on one of his collections.

- A box that appears to contain a galaxy.
