"Everyone knows that in this era, Stargate technology is the most crucial aspect of Interstellar Navigation.
However, Stargates can only be constructed in star systems with two stars, so to this day, one-third of star systems still cannot build Stargates..."
Zhao Chen groggily opened his eyes, a dizzy sensation swirling in his head.
If he remembered correctly, he had stayed up late gaming last night and felt drowsy as soon as class started today.
But strangely, the usually strict "Nun of Doom" teacher hadn't woken him up today.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen's expression froze.
Because he realized the entire classroom felt off.
The desks were no longer wooden but made of some pure white, special material. Each student had a holographic projection screen in front of them, and the school uniforms had transformed into something resembling the uniforms from sci-fi space war movies.
Zhao Chen reached out to touch the seemingly transparent display screen in front of him. To his surprise, he felt as if he were touching a solid object at first, but when he pushed harder, his entire hand passed right through it.
"Holy crap..." Zhao Chen widened his eyes and looked around.
He saw that where the "wall" on one side of the classroom should have been, there was now a massive floor-to-ceiling window. Beyond it was a dazzling view of the Milky Way—the kind only seen in educational programs.
On the walls of this peculiar classroom hung several electronic scrolls, some depicting what looked like fighter jets, others resembling warships... not naval warships, but rather Starships like those in games!
Then, looking at the teacher currently lecturing on the podium... Zhao Chen nearly jumped out of his seat in shock.
It was a humanoid creature, dressed in clothes, but its head had no hair. Instead, it was covered in vine-like patterns, with butterfly-wing-shaped ears on either side of its head.
This was definitely not a human appearance!
Just as Zhao Chen was wondering if he was dreaming, a flood of memories surged into his mind.
The interstellar era... the Stellar Glory Empire... Galactic Stellar Calendar 3030... North Star Starship Military Academy...
Zhao Chen... Starship Captain Department... third-year... student...
Zhao Chen winced in pain, clutching his head.
"Old Zhao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" a concerned voice came from beside him.
Zhao Chen looked over and saw a male student.
Information about him immediately surfaced in Zhao Chen's mind.
Li Wei... his good friend and classmate.
"I'm fine, probably just stayed up too late last night," Zhao Chen waved his hand, indicating he was okay.
He pretended to stay calm and continued attending the class, but his mind was busy sorting out his current situation and circumstances.
He had traveled through time!
He had traveled to an interstellar era.
This was a starship military academy in the Stellar Glory Empire. He was a student here, studying to become a starship captain, with hopes of one day commanding a Starship as its captain.
Zhao Chen patted his pocket, where there was a small medicine bottle.
If he remembered correctly, the original owner of this body had chosen to poison himself due to a broken heart. Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen had traveled through time and taken over this body, which shared the same name as his own.
[Ding... Super Starfleet System binding in progress... Binding complete... Host: Zhao Chen...]
At that moment, a mechanical female voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
[Newcomer Gift Pack Opening...]
[Congratulations on obtaining 100 System Points]
[Congratulations on obtaining the profession 'Top-tier Starship Engineer']
[Congratulations on obtaining one copy of the 'T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser' Technical Blueprint]
[Congratulations on obtaining one random Special Attribute draw opportunity]
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Zhao Chen realized this was the golden finger belonging to him as a transmigrator!
With a thought from Zhao Chen, a virtual interface appeared before his eyes.
[Host: Zhao Chen
Profession: Top-tier Starship Engineer
Special Attribute: Empty
Points: 100
Starship Count: 0 vessels
Mission: Quarterly Mission (Not Claimed)
Warehouse: T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser Technical Blueprint]
Zhao Chen glanced over it, noting the two rewards he had just received.
Top-tier Starship Engineer?
Zhao Chen raised his hand and used the holographic computer on the desk to look up some information about starship manufacturing. He discovered that when he saw this knowledge, he understood it instantly and could even extrapolate further.
"So, I can build starships myself?" Zhao Chen thought to himself with pleasant surprise.
Looking further down.
Points?
[Points: System Points are provided daily based on the Starship Count owned by the host (must be starships built from System Blueprints). Points can also be obtained by completing system missions; Points can be exchanged for 'goods' in the System Store]
Zhao Chen glanced at the so-called System Store. Inside were technical blueprints for starships and various other goods, but all belonged to the T1 Technology Tier.
In this world, technological products were categorized into T1, T2, T3, and so on, and starships were no exception; the higher the tier, the stronger the combat power and the more advanced the technology.
Therefore, the 'T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser' Zhao Chen obtained could be considered an extremely precious starship technology!
It was important to know that a T3-tier starship technical blueprint was worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of Star Coins within the Stellar Glory Empire.
Currently, the publicly known types of active T3 starships in the Stellar Glory Empire did not exceed ten!
This was enough to show the preciousness of T3 starships.
If others knew Zhao Chen possessed such a T3 starship technical blueprint, the entire empire would likely be in an uproar.
But Zhao Chen understood the principle that "a man's wealth is his own ruin." This item must not be revealed before he had sufficient strength.
It was just a pity that Zhao Chen currently lacked the capability to build a T3 starship.
Based on Zhao Chen's memory and knowledge, building a T3 starship required at least ten million Star Coins worth of raw material resources and related construction costs.
To possess such a starship, Zhao Chen still had a long way to go.
As for the Quarterly Mission displayed on the system interface.
It was a mission that automatically formed every three months, with rewards upon completion.
And this was Zhao Chen's first Quarterly Mission.
Zhao Chen claimed it first.
[Quarterly Mission: Possess One Starship (System Product)]
This was no small challenge.
Additionally, there was something special.
That was the 'Special Attribute.'
Zhao Chen clicked on the 'Attribute' option, and a box popped up.
[The host will randomly select one attribute from below along with its execution condition]
[Option One: The host's fleet can only recruit male soldiers, granting Fleet Combat Power Bonus and Voice of Encouragement]
[Option Two: The host's fleet can only recruit female soldiers, granting Fleet Luck
Bonus and Eye of Insight]
[Option Three: The host's fleet can only recruit non-humanoid soldiers, granting Fleet Loyalty Bonus and Omnipotent Language]
Zhao Chen's face darkened—was this system trying to stir up trouble?
