Star Iron, building an empire starting with game development

Unknown Universe - Sterling G Galaxy

"Whoosh!" An Isokaze-class wave cannon destroyer broke free of its warp drive, arrived at the edge of this galaxy's star system, and emitted some kind of matter.

"Buzz—" A world gate known as the Star Gate unfolds within this star system.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." After the Gate of the World was fully opened, an Isokaze-class destroyer jumped out, followed by a large number of Isokaze-class, Murasame-class, and Kongo-class wave gun warships.

The fleet was enormous, reaching 10,000 ships in less than ten minutes.

"Buzz!" A Death Star emerged from the World Gate, and behind it were nine Death Star fortresses and three Starkiller planetary fortress ships.

After the Death Star Fortress and the Starkiller Planetary Fortress arrived in this star system, a large number of ships flew out of the World Gate, quickly reaching nearly a million, and more fleets continued to appear.

Bridge deck - Admiral Yang Weili

"Admiral Yang!" The android adjutant walked over and handed Yang a report.

"A new universe? Interesting." Yang smiled as he looked at the documents handed to him by his adjutant.

"According to reports from the dimensional reconnaissance aircraft, there are three interstellar civilizations in our galaxy: two human civilizations with differing beliefs and ideologies, and a Zerg civilization that evolved from insects into subhumans," the adjutant reported.

"According to the nanobots' investigation, one of the three civilizations, a human civilization and an insectoid civilization, are currently at war with each other, while the other human civilization is neutral on the fifth spiral arm of this galaxy and its territory consists of only a dozen or so star systems."

"The Galactic Federation and the Meger Empire, the two insect civilizations that fought against each other, occupied 90% of the explorable areas of the Milky Way. Because of this, the two sides fought so fiercely that they were practically brain-dead."

"As for why neither side has gone after that neutral civilization, the nanobots say they are looking for the reasons," the adjutant said.

"How's their technology?" Yang Weili asked with great interest.

"The neutral Human Federation's technology is neither high nor low, barely enough to hold off the remnants of the war between the two civilizations."

"The conflicts between the Galactic Federation and the Megatron Empire are the kind where they ruthlessly attack each other's colonized planets, burning glass in the process. The Galactic Federation's technology is quite advanced."

"As for the Megel Empire, for some reason, their aesthetic tastes are similar to those of humans, but their military equipment is so ugly and incomprehensible that it's practically biotechnology. Their various biological warships are enough to make any human feel utterly disgusted at first glance," the adjutant said.

"Let's launch a direct attack with the fleet. This galaxy is the springboard for the Empire's expansion throughout the universe," Yang said, handing the tablet back to his adjutant.

"Yes, Admiral." The adjutant left.

The room that belongs to the stars

"Hmm? An unknown universe?" Xing, who was searching for something, glanced at the inter-universe communication projection belonging to Yang Wenli in front of him.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Yang Wenli replied.

"Do whatever you want." Xing waved his hand, indicating that he was too lazy to deal with these things now, and then hung up the call.

"Aren't you really going to do anything about your fleet and Yang Wen-li in the unknown universe?" the system asked.

"I've taken a look: ten Death Star fortresses, three Starkillers, and fifty million interstellar warships of various types. What else could I possibly worry about?" Stars shrugged in response.

"Okay, I understand, but can I ask you what you're doing?" The system asked, glancing at the silver wolf leaning against the doorway.

"Looking for new videos," Xing replied without turning her head.

"So how can I know what kind of video would make you reject the USB drive I initially gave you and then spend ages searching for other videos?" Silver Wolf asked.

"Ah~! Found it, here you go~" Xing discovered something, then used the power of the system to materialize a USB drive and handed it to the silver wolf next to her.

"This is... Firefly? Are you planning to continue showing videos related to Sam?" Silver Wolf raised an eyebrow at the girl in some kind of tight-fitting outfit on the cover, then turned and went back to his room.

"Not even a moment's hesitation?" Xing asked in surprise.

"Star, when are you planning to release my game?" Ying appeared in Star's room at some point, sitting on the bed, swinging her white-stockinged legs and asking with a smile.

"Genshin Impact? That's really difficult. After all, this is the interstellar era, and the developers have added a lot of messy stuff to that game. Especially since I'm planning to release Kiana's Honkai Impact 3rd game first," Xing replied.

"Hmph! You're just spoiling Kiana too much," Ying said, pursing her lips.

"Don't you spoil her?" Xing asked with a smile.

"Although her game is nominally many years older than mine, and it is indeed the fourth game from the Mi family, I have to say that among all of Kiana's forms, Sky Kiana looks the easiest to bully," Ying said with a smile after recalling Kiana's appearance.

“After all, she’s Kiana, who’s been through everything, and she was Mei’s underling.” Hoshi shrugged in response.

"So, when will my game be released?" Ying returned to the question.

"Let's wait until Honkai Impact 3 is almost finished," Xing said after thinking for a moment.

“Okay, anyway, in your world I was born four or five years after Kiana, so I’ll just wait here too,” Ying replied.

"Let's stop chatting. Want to watch a new animated short film together? It's also about Firefly, and it's about her from before," Xing asked.

"What?! A short animated film about fireflies? I'm here! I'm here!" A golden vortex appeared, and Kiana jumped out and excitedly came to Xing, looking at her with great excitement.

"Uh... okay, let's go together." Looking at Kiana, who was staring at him with sparkling eyes and a pitiful expression, especially with her outfit today, Xing almost hallucinated that cat ears had appeared on her head.

"Yay! Captain is the best!" Kiana hugged Hoshiguma tightly and shouted happily, then turned around and pulled Luminous away from Hoshiguma's room to run to Silver Wolf's room.

"It can actually open an imaginary space that spans multiple universes? But..." Xing glanced at the imaginary space passage that was not yet closed, and she sensed other auras inside.

"Come on in if you want. Don't worry about Kiana's thoughts. After all, I am your captain, aren't I?" Xing said with a smile to the Imaginary Channel, and then left the room.

"Whoosh~" A purple figure flashed by...
