technology—the Interstellar Shuttle Platform!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interstellar shuttle that Ah Long once rode also existed thanks to the platform’s power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hundreds of

the planet, countless people feel the tremors of earth and sky, waves of shock surging within their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Venicca’s declaration already made it clear—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All fortress warships of Heaven Star will venture out into deep space, headed toward a future brighter than the central star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People still underestimated the scale of Venicca’s move, and her absolute resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This can’t even be called an \"expedition\" anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is simply...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire nest moves out, leaving behind even the crystals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this

one knows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some choose to trust Venicca and board the fortress warships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some choose to stay on Heaven Star, refusing to join the so-called

lower slightly, judgment already made in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such judgment is unreasonable, completely illogical—after all, countless subordinates of Heaven Star have no idea Yu Jin even exists, nor the power he possesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly fervent and devout Venicca obviously doesn’t care about reason or

day—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warships and spaceships outside the planet, countless in number, become streaks of light and disappear into the depths of the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My

talking about me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock Star Realm, Gangval Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Promoter Plaza in the southern Northern Hemisphere, Yu Jin looks upon the sea of people ahead, muttering to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment ago,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin, elevated from the Drake-3 Star System Server, was teleported here from the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a short period,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin has gained a rough understanding of this planet and his current situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock Star Realm belongs to the Ophelia Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that, among the dozens of Star Realms under Federation control, this one is the poorest in resources, and sits at the outermost fringes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gangval Star, meanwhile, is at the very periphery of Rock Star Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To summarize...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A trash planet in the trash Star Realm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trash among trash...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Yu Jin can’t help but sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d been curious before, wondering which Federation Star Realm he’d be sent to, if maybe he’d end up in the Central Star Realm, perhaps even run into Athena there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The facts spell it out for Yu Jin in three big letters: Dream on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The information Yu Jin has is—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock Star Realm is one of the realms bordering the Low-dimensional Star System Wasteland Server.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through countless ages, promoters from the Star System Wasteland are often teleported into this realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gangval Star is right now specifically used to accommodate and receive promoters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plaza where Yu Jin stands stretches out of sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the plaza, countless figures move to and fro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some, like Yu Jin, look around curiously or whisper quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others have faces bearing a faint, almost imperceptible arrogance, coldly sizing up the many players on the plaza.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A wave of newbies again today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Doesn’t seem like a big batch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Probably around ten million...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the terrifying Perception at Tier Eleven Limitless, Yu Jin easily captures every voice across the plaza, digesting it effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he’s learned so far comes from this very method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you staring at?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shout interrupts Yu Jin’s thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He snaps back from \"Ears Everywhere,\" looking ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone picking a fight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just promoted and I’ve already got braindead trash picking on me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even a cheat like me can’t escape such cliché drama?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin’s expression turns odd as he looks over, only to realize...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one being picked on isn’t himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another sneering shout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far ahead, a tall young man is surrounded by a group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people wear special combat armor, with a half-moon emblem etched on their chests—the mark of the Ophelia Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Official staff?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Federation personnel?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin raises his brow slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You want to buy Federation citizenship right now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you’d like at least V-Class, preferably IV-Class citizen status?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking is the tall squad leader, his mecha reflecting a faint silver glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone, especially when mentioning \"V-Class Citizen\" and \"IV-Class Citizen,\" carries a distinct note of ridicule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounded youth is also a newly promoted player.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He faces the Federation officials with calm composure, neither servile nor overbearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officials’ response is a burst of mocking laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really think V-Class Citizen, IV-Class Citizen are cabbages on the street, buyable at will?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell are you thinking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader laughs loudly, removing his silver mecha mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gives the youth an up-and-down glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much money you got?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Money?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must mean Wasteland Source Points?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth stops halfway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much money I have doesn’t really relate to buying citizenship, does it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe you should tell me how much I need first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth remains rational and calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader is mildly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve actually got a brain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nods, then shakes his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He strides right up to the youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t have enough Source Points, kid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What you need to do now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is find a job first on this planet, survive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In five or ten years, maybe twenty or thirty, you’ll have saved enough Source Points to buy a real V-Class Citizen ID.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With V-Class citizenship, you’re qualified to leave Gangval Star, even Rock Star Realm, and head to other Federation realms and planets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Central Star Realm, though—V-Class won’t even get you through the door...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader’s tone drops its earlier sarcasm,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>turning instead sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice is low, even harnessing his own Attribute Energy, but still fails to elude Yu Jin’s notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin is a bit surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected this would-be villain wasn’t a werewolf...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Scram!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t have enough money, not even close!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader suddenly cranks up his tone, turning sneering again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newly promoted youth now looks a little lost...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on the plaza—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far from both the youth and Yu Jin,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd, once gleaming with predatory eyes, exchange glances, shake their heads, shift their gaze away from the youth, and start hunting for new
