A Core Ship From The Start
Chapter 1011 - Chapter 1011 698 Chapter Star Language

Chapter 1011: 698 Chapter: Star Language Chapter 1011: 698 Chapter: Star Language Before stepping through this door, the two had imagined many scenarios, yet none could be more shocking than what lay before their eyes—-a dome shimmering with golden brilliance, enormous floor-to-ceiling windows, outside were stars burning amidst the dim universe, leaving them both speechless, merely standing there, staring at everything before them, barely able to believe their own eyes.

“This is the Tribunal, Shirley, Asherica.”

At that moment, Mary also spoke beside them, her voice carrying a hint of pride.

“Welcome to the Tribunal.”

“……….”

The two didn’t speak; they slowly shifted their gazes, looking around before they reached up, rubbed their eyes, and then turned in astonishment to look at Mary, as if the person beside them was not their friend but a stranger.

“What is going on, Mary? Are you really Mary? Where are we?”

“Of course, I am, A’Xie.”

Looking at Asherica’s pale little face, Mary gave a slight smile.

“Believe me, I was just as surprised as you are the first time I came here.”

“So… you work here?”

Shirley blinked, looking around.

“Yes, Mr. Duanmu said he needed my Strength, and… I also needed Strength.”

“Your Strength? Mary, what Strength do you have?”

Facing her friend’s question, Mary pointed to her right eye.

“That golden eye? But isn’t that a disease?”

“It’s not a disease, I don’t quite know how to explain it, but it indeed possesses unique Strength…”

Saying this, Mary gave a wry smile.

“Anyway, let’s talk while we walk.”

Leading the two, Mary walked out of the transportation room and in the corridor, she shared with them her experiences of joining the Tribunal (of course, omitting the part about Shirley). For Shirley and Asherica, it was hard to believe everything they were hearing, but the shocking scene before them, along with the cold steel floor beneath their feet, reminded them this was not a dream.

“So… this is a cosmic organization?”

Asherica was the first to recover, then immediately leaned over the window and looked out.

“Is that the Sun? Are we in the Solar System now? Where’s Earth?”

“This is not the Solar System, we are currently in the Boundary God Star System, a place far from the Solar System…”

“Boundary God Star System?”

Upon hearing this, Shirley was stunned for a moment, then regained her senses and looked at Mary.

“Isn’t that the world from your novel? Are the things you wrote in your novel real?”

Indeed, after publishing her first novel about the Followers of the Old God, Mary’s second novel was about the Tribunal’s confrontation with the Reapers in the Star Union. This novel caused quite a stir upon its release, first because in the field of science fiction, it is mostly male-dominated, and the fact that Mary, as a girl, could write a bestselling science fiction novel was itself quite rare.

Furthermore, some of the concepts employed in Mary’s science fiction novel impressed many experts in interstellar cosmology, who thought it was a model that could guide humanity’s future interstellar travel–a societal model of interstellar societies–well, that’s obvious, since Mary was basically using the rules and systems of the Star Union as her setting, and the Star Union is a purely human civilization, meaning if Mary’s world also entered the era of interstellar travel, they might well use Mary’s novels as a reference to establish rules and regulations.

Of course, with fans come critics, and many reviewers pointed out that the Tribunal, as the protagonist organization, was too exclusionary, promoting a human supremacism in the universe that was a kind of evil dictatorship, and thus suggesting that Mary could have some evil dictatorial tendencies etc…

However, Mary didn’t care about this. For the most part, she spent her time at the Tribunal, apart from acting with Duanmu Huai, Mary was at the Tribunal writing drafts and then taking them back to her world to submit to her editors. If there weren’t significant changes, she generally didn’t bother with them. As for things like royalties… well, Mary was indeed quite wealthy now, but the sad part was that her money was of little use in the Tribunal.

“Of course.”

Hearing her friend’s question, Mary nodded.

“Strictly speaking, what I write isn’t science fiction, but rather documentary literature, what I actually do is follow Mr. Duanmu around, document the movements of the Tribunal, then process it into literature and publish it… you see, almost like Watson was to Sherlock Holmes.”

“Documentary literature……”

Hearing this, Shirley was also greatly astonished. As Mary’s best friend, Shirley had always read her novels the moment they were published. Of course, Mary’s delicate and gentle writing style goes without saying, but the contents regarding the Tribunal, in Shirley’s view, were rather too cruel and even brutal, such as facing the threat named Reapers, the Tribunal did not choose like many novels to unite across racial divides to fight the common enemy, but instead waited for the Reapers to wipe out other interstellar Races of the Divine Fort Council before launching an attack, resisting and ultimately eliminating the Reapers.

This paragraph was also a greatly controversial one, after all, most similar works talked about uniting together against a common enemy, stories where an organization lets the enemy eliminate its competition typically involve antagonist factions.
