Vatican City. St. Peter's Square.It was a scene that would be remembered in history books forever. The holiest place in the West was completely surrounded. But not by pilgrims. By 100,000 Mechanical Terracotta Warriors.Their heavy, metallic footsteps echoed on the cobblestones. CLANK. CLANK. They didn't attack. They just stood there, forming a black ocean of iron, blocking eve

Lunar Orbit. The Void.Ten Seraphim Scout Ships glided silently through the darkness. They were beautiful, shaped like silver teardrops, glowing with holy white light. Inside the lead ship, Captain Azrael looked at the clumsy, blocky Earth vessel on his radar."Look at that junk," Azrael laughed, sipping blue nectar. "The monkeys finally learned how to leave their cage. It looks like a flying brick.""Captain, should we vaporize them?" a subordinate asked."No," Azrael grinned. "Disable their engines. We will capture them. I want to see the monkeys scream when we dissect them.""Open fire! Holy Light Beams!"PEW! PEW! PEW!Ten beams of concentrated photon energy shot towards the Starbreaker.Inside the Starbreaker."Shields holding," Sebastian reported calmly. "Energy cost: $10 Million."Lucas sat in the commander's chair, swirling his wine. "They want to play? Let's play." "General Qin, are your boys ready for a spacewalk?"Emperor Qin put on his pressurized Dragon Helmet. His eyes b

The Silver City. Central Command Spire.The battle had reached the heart of the city. The enslaved human cultivators and the Terracotta Warriors were holding off the mechanical guards outside. Inside the throne room of the Spire, the final boss waited.He was Commander Uriel, a Six-Winged Seraph. He stood ten meters tall, holding a flaming greatsword. His aura was terrifying, equal to a Late-Stage Nascent Soul cultivator."Filthy monkeys!" Uriel roared, his voice shaking the crystal walls. "You dare defile the sanctuary of the Gods?"Emperor Qin stepped forward. He spat on the floor. "Gods? You are just a bird with too many feathers."Qin raised his Laser Sword. Behind him, the phantom of a Black Dragon appeared—the manifestation of his Imperial Qi. "I united the Seven Kingdoms. I built the Great Wall. Today, I will pluck your wings!""Die!" Uriel charged, slashing his flaming sword. "Dragon Strike!" Qin countered.BOOM! Light and darkness collided. The shockwave shattered the windows

Earth. 9:00 PM. The Global Celebration.The entire planet was intoxicated with victory. Fireworks bloomed over every major capital—London, Tokyo, Shanghai, New York. The giant holographic advertisement on the Moon, "KING CORP: WE OWN THE STARS," shone brightly in the night sky, a testament to human ambition. People poured into the streets, toasting to the new "Interstellar Era." They dreamed of high-paying jobs on the Moon, oblivious to the fact that the universe was a dark forest filled with hunters.New York. King Tower (Penthouse).The party here was quieter but far more exclusive. Lucas King stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, swirling a glass of vintage Pinot Noir. He looked down at the city lights, his reflection superimposed on the world he effectively ruled.Catherine Lin walked over, her silver evening gown rustling softly. She leaned her head on his shoulder, exhausted but content. "It feels unreal," she whispered. "Yesterday, we were fighting for a company. Today, you own

Deep Space. Sector 3 (Between Earth and Mars).The silence of space was deceptive. To the naked eye, it was just an endless canvas of stars. But on the sensors of the Starbreaker, it was a noisy ocean of radiation and signals.General Yue Fei stood on the command bridge, his hands clasped behind his back. He wasn't wearing his Song Dynasty armor anymore. Instead, he wore a tailored King Corp tactical uniform, looking every bit like a modern admiral. But his eyes still held the sharpness of a veteran who had fought thousands of battles."General," Sebastian (the AI) reported. "Sensors detect a dense asteroid cluster 50,000 kilometers ahead. It is blocking our direct path to Mars.""An asteroid cluster?" Lucas sat in the captain's chair, raising an eyebrow. "On the star map, this area should be empty."Yue Fei walked to the tactical hologram. He studied the floating rocks closely. "Patriarch," Yue Fei pointed at the drift pattern. "Look at their movement. Rocks drift with inertia. But t
