In Alliance Year 2147, I was the lowest of the low, a scavenger rat on the junk planet “Rust Ring,” gnawing on dead batteries to stay alive and hiding from pirates and cleanup crews. My life was worth less than the trash.
Then I bound myself to the “Scrap Reconstruction System.”
Broken titanium alloy? Reconstruct it into a miniature shield that can withstand an interstellar pistol!
A discarded engine? Turn it into a warp drive and get a spacecraft flying at five times the speed of sound!
A jammed old gun? Upgrade it straight into an ion cannon and blast the Alliance battleships until they’re belching black smoke!
They say you can’t make treasures out of trash. I’m going to pile up all the junk in the universe and build my own starship empire!
“Director, this is bad! That scavenger turned a discarded satellite into a planet-buster and aimed it at the Central Star Sector!”
“Don’t panic. Send a fleet... Wait, why are all those ships in his fleet decommissioned warships we threw away?!”
From picking through trash to blasting my way across the stars, I, Lin Ye, rely on just one thing:
Turning what everyone else considers junk into weapons they can’t afford to provoke!
