Blue Star Federation

If they had not reverse-engineered alien spacecraft technology, the Great Xia Empire's current technology would have been incapable of building spacefaring vessels.

Even the Ark-class Battleship was only advanced by the standards of the Great Xia Empire's backward technology.

From a true interstellar perspective, the Ark was at most a short-range craft for travel between planets, equipped with outdated weapons and lumbering back and forth at slow speeds.

It only appeared fast and efficient when traveling between a planet and its satellites.

To a genuine interstellar civilization, this was probably only an entry-level standard.

In fact, spacecraft traveling between planets and satellites were no different from those traveling between planets, as far as they were concerned.

Though Simon had never encountered other civilizations, he could infer that the Great Xia Empire's spacecraft technology was undoubtedly quite backward.

Perhaps they could contend with others to some extent through Supernatural Technology, but relying solely on technological power, they definitely could not fight.

That was why he had deliberately shown weakness to the enemy.

In war, no method was too much, let alone merely setting aside one's pride.

Simon, a veteran of countless battles, clearly did not care about pride.

After all, people like him had long since paid bloody prices for their pride.

Lessons bought with blood were bound to leave a deep impression.

Following the guidance of the star route, they had passed through the Interstellar Passage and arrived in this distant starfield.

Interstellar Passages were unusual phenomena that naturally formed between stars. Of course, there were also rumors that they were abandoned pathways left behind by advanced civilizations.

They were somewhat similar to the widely circulated theory
