Chapter 1

The Large Magellanic Cloud.

Stellar Coordinates: X12575.89Y57.

Yue Heng turned his head for a glance.

Behind him, over a hundred Titan battleships, each over 50,000 meters long, led thousands of starships in a desperate charge against the Zerg army.

The brilliance of high-energy particle cannons and the fiery explosions of warships intertwined, outshining all the stars.

Countless brave warriors died every second.

Their sacrifices were merely to open a path forward for Yue Heng.

In a more distant place, a massive stargate floated in the universe, emitting a faint glow.

This was the final gateway to the Milky Way, the common home of billions upon billions of humans!

Yue Heng took a deep breath, maxed out the power of his War God VII star mech, and fully extended the wing plates on his back, revealing the core of the source furnace engine inside.

A deep blue flame burst forth!

In the next second, he vanished without a trace.

The Zerg that had surrounded him from all sides were left with nothing but empty space.

Almost instantaneously, the War God mech reappeared 30 million kilometers from its original position.

This short-distance jump had drained over 95% of the mech's energy, and the source furnace engine was issuing warnings due to overload.

Yue Heng ignored the sharp alarms in his ears, focusing all his attention on what lay ahead.

A monster the size of a star filled his entire field of vision.

The Zerg Queen!

When humans conquered the Milky Way and set out with great ambition to explore the vast star sea,

they encountered the Zerg.

Over the past hundred years, humans have paid an enormous price.

Not only have they failed to repel the Zerg invasion, but they have also lost all extragalactic star systems, being pushed to the doorstep of their home.

The Zerg Queen before Yue Heng was the shared, indelible nightmare of all humanity!

And Yue Heng was undoubtedly the human who had come closest to the Zerg Queen in history.

The War God VII mech he piloted was the pinnacle of Star Alliance technology, with a 10th-level source furnace engine capable of spatial jumps without the aid of a stargate!

At this moment, Yue Heng was like an assassin.

He had only one chance!

The Zerg Queen clearly did not expect a mere human to approach within 10,000 kilometers of her.

The high-dimensional intelligence of the Zerg Queen sensed an immense threat and immediately unleashed a powerful psychic shockwave.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The psychic gems embedded in the head of the War God mech exploded one after another.

Each psychic gem was formed by the life force of a 9th-level psychic master, protecting Yue Heng from the Zerg Queen's psychic shockwave and preventing him from dying instantly.

But Yue Heng still suffered immense pressure, with fresh blood gushing from his ears, eyes, and nose.

His face became grotesque!

Relying on the protection of the psychic gems and his indomitable will, Yue Heng drove the mech towards the Zerg Queen without hesitation, like a tiny meteor falling towards a star.

Bang!

The last psychic gem turned to powder.

It provided only 1.35 seconds of mental protection for Yue Heng.

But it was enough.

Yue Heng used 1 second to drain the last 1% of the mech's energy, reducing the distance to the Zerg Queen to within 1,000 meters.

Then he pressed the red button on the control lever.

At the moment of detonating the ultra-anti-matter bomb inside the War God VII, he smiled with a sense of relief.

This 100 quadrillion-ton anti-matter bomb was enough to completely destroy humanity's nightmare!

It was over.

"Why?"

Suddenly, a ethereal voice echoed in Yue Heng's mind.

Why?

Yue Heng was taken aback.

Perhaps he was just too tired.

Since his rebirth, he had fought in the star sea for over half a century, killing countless aliens and Zerg.

Yue Heng was truly exhausted.

He had never yearned for peace more than at this moment.

Eternal slumber!

…

…

…

An unknown amount of time passed before Yue Heng suddenly opened his eyes.

He woke up.

A fist rapidly expanded in Yue Heng's field of vision.

Huh?

He instinctively turned his head to dodge.

Smack!

The powerful fist hit the wall behind Yue Heng, causing a direct collision between flesh, bone, and concrete bricks.

"Ah!"

The attacker involuntarily let out a piercing scream.

Yue Heng instinctively punched the attacker's abdomen, cutting off the scream!

The instinct to fight had long been ingrained in Yue Heng's soul.

At this moment, he realized he was in a dark alley.

The attacker was already on the ground, clutching his stomach, with bulging eyes and a wide-open mouth, looking like a toad.

But there were two other muscular boys nearby, both looking dazed.

A fierce light flashed in Yue Heng's eyes.

Just as he was about to strike again, the two boys, as if seeing a ghost, took a step back in unison.

Yue Heng's eyes were truly terrifying, burning with flames that made them feel they could be reduced to ashes at any moment!

Their faces turned pale, and their eyes filled with fear as they turned and ran without hesitation, abandoning their companion.

Yue Heng took a deep breath and leaned back against the wall.

He looked around, then at his own attire, and his eyes went from disbelief to sudden realization.

Yue Heng laughed.

He laughed loudly, wildly, and crazily!

The boy on the ground was terrified, ignoring the pain and crawling towards the alley entrance on all fours.

Yue Heng ignored him.

His laughter echoed through the alley for a long time.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Yue Heng truly confirmed he was not hallucinating.

He had returned.

Yue Heng, who had been reborn a thousand years later, had returned to his own era.

After he detonated the anti-matter bomb and died with the Zerg Queen!

The most incredible thing was that the time of his return was not the year of his accidental death.

But when he was 16 years old.

The school uniform and backpack he was wearing now were strong evidence of this.

The memories sealed deep in his soul surged like a flood!

He took a large step and caught up with the boy who had not run far, kicking him hard in the buttocks.

Knocking him back to the ground.

Before the boy could get up, Yue Heng stepped on his chest: "Who told you to block me?"

The boy on the ground was pale and sweating, not daring to meet Yue Heng's eyes, gritting his teeth in silence.

Yue Heng smiled coldly and searched the boy's pockets.

He found a mobile phone, a student card, several hundred yuan, a pack of cigarettes, and a lighter.

Yue Heng looked at the student card and returned the phone and money to the boy, keeping only the cigarettes and lighter.

"Get lost."

He took out a cigarette and lit it, taking a deep puff.

A strange yet familiar taste.

Then he almost choked, his eyes almost watering!
