Star Iron, building an empire starting with game development

Unknown World - Imperial Direct Universe

Unknown sector

"Zzzzz~~Bang—!" A series of flashes appeared, and soon, a smoking spaceship emerged from the instantly opened warp gate.

Moreover, the spaceship's hull was crawling with swarms of insect-like creatures, and behind her, from the still-open space portal, a massive number of flying insects poured out...

"Captain, there are too many bugs. We don't even know where our random warp has taken us," the first mate said to the captain of the spaceship from the bridge.

"There have never been any insects on the route before. Where did these insects come from?" the captain frowned, thinking.

"There are only 10,000 tourists and 5,000 new recruits about to enter the military camp for training on the Star Core ship... Wait, could it be that the problem of transporting new recruits was leaked?" The first mate thought of something.

"Those damned traitors..." the captain cursed through gritted teeth.

"Captain, the insects have started invading the living area, and the defense team is short-handed." Someone ran over.

"Give those new recruits weapons, and tell them this is the front line of the battlefield. If they want to go home alive, they have to pick up their weapons and kill those bugs!" the captain ordered.

"Space collapse effect detected ahead!" the radar operator suddenly reported.

"Could it be another bug? It's just an ordinary cruise ship, maybe carrying some new recruits at most," the captain sighed.

"Beep—" An Isokaze-class wave gun destroyer and four Gozanti-class light cruisers carrying unmanned TIE fighters broke free from warp and arrived in front of the spaceship.

"Hiss~!" A bug spotted the formation and hissed, making a sound. Then, a large swarm of bugs left the ship and attacked the formation.

"Click-clack..." Thirty-two TIE fighters detached from their loadouts and launched a counterattack towards the swarm of insects, while the four Gozantis carrying them began to unleash a barrage of bullets.

As the Isokaze-class wave cannon destroyer began firing its positron cannons and the wave cannon at the bow began charging, a communication was transmitted...

The space portal finally closed, but the number of bugs had increased significantly. Apart from the unarmed spaceship, which was still being gnawed on by some bugs, almost all the bugs were driven by instinct to launch a frenzied attack on the warship fleet.

Soon, all the unmanned TIE fighters were destroyed, and only one of the four Gozanti was left under the attack of the insects, while the Isokaze-class destroyer began to teeter on the brink of collapse.

"Bang! Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." After an Arquitenth-class light cruiser escaped hyperspace, more and more Gozanti-class, Arquitenth-class, Imperial-class, and Jaeger-class attack cruisers escaped hyperspace, and an Executor-class Star Destroyer arrived on the battlefield.

The appearance of a large number of unmanned TID fighters and nearly a hundred VF-171 fighters instantly turned the tide of the battle...

Ten minutes later, the insects were completely wiped out. The Executor-class Star Destroyer arrived above the ship and pulled it into the hangar. Then, three Astartes, leading a squad of android soldiers, forcibly broke through one of the ship's armor plates and went inside.

The room that belongs to the stars

"Your universe has been invaded," the system suddenly said.

"Intrusion? What happened?" Xing suddenly became interested and asked excitedly.

"A spaceship was being hunted by a swarm of insect-like life forms and lost its way. Then, the swarm appeared in your territory's universe along with some insect-like creatures," the system said.

"Can you find out anything about the other party?" Xing asked after thinking for a moment.

"The world information left behind by the unknown spaceship cannot be found. The cosmic information is completely blocked. I cannot analyze it across the universe without going to that world. It seems that there is also a system in that world." The system responded.

"Not from the council?" Xing thought for a moment and asked the system.

"No, their blocking method looks familiar. It's probably another system organization that's on good terms with the parliament," the system responded.

"Other systems or organizations?" Xing asked curiously.

"There are quite a few system organizations in the Sea of ​​Nothingness. For example, the Game Administration Bureau and the Book Administration Bureau that you've seen are also system organizations in some form. Then there are some ordinary system organizations and wild systems, but none of those system organizations have the same reputation as the System Council," the system said.

"I see. It seems I'll have to use that spaceship to slowly piece together information about that world?" Xing nodded and said.

"No need. The distance to that universe isn't too far. I can take you there directly. Do you want to go?" the system said.

"Let me think... I've released two PV videos, and I don't have anything else I want to do right now, so I'll go check out that world." Xing said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, ready... um?" The system was about to say something when it seemed to realize something.

"What's wrong?" Xing asked the system, puzzled.

"No wonder it looked so familiar, it turns out it's the system from the 'Star Sea' organization," the system muttered.

"The other side has entered my territory?" Xing instantly understood what the system meant.

"Yes, it must be because of that spaceship. Currently, a fleet is confronting your border patrol fleet," the system responded.

“Take me there, and let’s see what kind of person they are,” Xing said.

Imperial Direct Universe - Confrontational Star System

Unknown Fleet - Flagship Bridge

"System, can't the problem with that fleet be solved yet?" a girl asked.

"That fleet is owned by the host of another system organization that is on good terms with our organization. According to the friendly cooperation agreement between the two sides, I cannot act arbitrarily, otherwise it would cause diplomatic problems between the two organizations," the system replied.

"Alright, let's keep this in check for now, although I don't really want to do this either, since they saved our spaceship," the girl said with a shrug.

During the conversation, the opposing fleet began to take some actions, with some warships retreating one kilometer.

"What does this mean?" the girl asked, puzzled.

"Considering the engagement distance between interstellar fleets, this kilometer is practically within arm's reach. But since the other side has retreated, it means they will no longer engage in battle with you," the system said.

"Come here." A voice echoed in the girl's mind, accompanied by a coordinate.

"What's going on with that sound?" The girl frowned, and picked at her ear, trying to drive the sound away.

"Let's go, they're inviting us." The system said, leading the girl away from the bridge towards the coordinates...

"The enemy is almost here, get ready," the system said.

"Okay, I understand," Xingdian nodded in response.
