Introduction to "Stardust Embers: The Never-Ending Journey"
In 2749 AD, the Interstellar Federation labeled low-level humans as "consumables" and threw them into the "Rust Ring" garbage station orbiting a dying red dwarf star, leaving them to perish under radiation and oppression. Lin Ye, number 734, is one of them - the life monitoring ring is flashing with a dying red light, and there are only 3 months left before he is thrown into the star and burned, until he accidentally touches the "star core fragments" hidden in the waste.
This mysterious piece of blue light not only dyed his blood with starlight, but also became the key to escape from hell. In the chaos caused by the death of Boy 512, Lin Ye drove an abandoned transport ship out of the star ring, but was involved in the struggle between the Federation and pirates for the star core: Su Qing, the captain of the federal exploration team, sacrificed her life to protect the coordinates of the "star core source" and donated the star map. Before she died, she revealed the federation's conspiracy - the holders of the star core fragments will eventually be used as "living containers", drained of energy and then destroyed.
Carrying the weight of two sacrifices, Lin Ye traveled through the desert of the universe for 8 standard years and arrived at the source of the star core wrapped in the blue nebula. He awakened the planet guardian made of crystals and unlocked the inherited power to control the energy of the star core. When the Federation fleet brought dimensionality reduction weapons and star-core missiles to the enemy, the former "consumables" had transformed into rebels wearing crystal mechas and spreading stardust wings behind their backs.
This is not the end, but the beginning of a reverse journey - after the crisis at the source of the star core is resolved, the entropic shadow of the super-dimensional "Anti-Entropy Alliance" has enveloped the universe again. Lin Ye will lead more oppressed civilizations to continue to write a new chapter in the collision of technology and energy, and the game of survival and plunder.
