Starsea Fleet: Age of the Lord

On the way back, Feng Mo took the opportunity to learn more about the Crystal Fossil Clan's unique customs from Tian Guang and Tian Ming. They explained their clan's love for shiny materials and their habit of sleeping on crystal beds. Feng Mo politely requested to see the clan's storeroom, a request the two brothers readily accepted. They knew Feng Mo was merely being polite—after all, a clan with thousands of years of heritage must have amassed a significant trove of treasures, and Feng Mo was genuinely curious.

After a brief return journey, Feng Mo's ship used light clamp technology to descend into the Crystal Fossil Clan's primary starport, where the Grand Elder and the clan's senior leaders awaited him.

When Feng Mo arrived, the assembled crowd bowed in unison. "Greetings, Lord!"

Feng Mo stepped forward, helping the Grand Elder up and reassuring the Crystal Fossil Clan, "Everyone, please, no need for formalities. Rise. My lordship won't change your way of life, nor will I take the Celestial Crystal as anything but your ancestral home. Rest assured, this will not change."

Hearing this, the Grand Elder visibly relaxed.

"Rest assured, Grand Elder," Feng Mo continued, "with my leadership, the Crystal Fossil Clan will flourish. As for the New Human Church, I will handle them personally—you need not worry."

The Grand Elder bowed again. "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness. Our clan numbers are modest, and residing solely on our mother star is more than enough. As for the remaining three habitable planets, please feel free to allocate them as you see fit."

Feng Mo nodded with a smile, then joined Tian Guang, Tian Ming, and Hua Qin as they traveled in a crystal hovercar toward the clan's vault.

The Celestial Crystal Star, built entirely from crystals, was a stunning sight—a crystalline planet that provided a perfect environment for the Crystal Fossil Clan. The journey to the storeroom was like an eye-opening tour of cosmic wonders, a testament to the vast mysteries of the universe.

Upon reaching the vault, Feng Mo was momentarily taken aback by the sheer grandeur of the crystal-built structure. Even with the resources of his own base on the Hurricane Star, he had never seen anything quite this extravagant. Still, given that the Celestial Crystal Star was composed entirely of such materials, he quickly understood why it seemed so natural.

The massive storeroom was divided into over a dozen smaller rooms. Knowing what Feng Mo was most interested in, Tian Guang and Tian Ming led him first to the main storeroom. As they opened the door, Feng Mo was greeted with stacks upon stacks of dark matter and dark energy crystals, filling the vast room.

Estimating the resources within, Feng Mo realized that this storeroom alone held nearly three times what he had previously obtained from the white hole—a treasure trove sufficient to construct three quasi-T5 starships. Though excited, he kept his composure, a self-discipline that Tian Guang noted with admiration. Here was a lord who didn't let wealth or power cloud his judgment—qualities of a great leader.

Guided by Tian Guang and Tian Ming, Feng Mo proceeded through the other smaller storerooms, finding more usable resources, much to his delight. The Crystal Fossil Clan's unique construction methods for crystal starships and weapons meant they had little need for metals and minerals, which they'd accumulated over time.

Two additional storerooms also held dark matter and dark energy crystals, while six were stocked with T3 and T4 materials—all of which would benefit Feng Mo greatly. The remaining storerooms were filled with diamonds, zircon, and other sparkling materials that were clearly beloved by the Crystal Fossil Clan.

As they completed the tour, Tian Guang respectfully said, "Lord, you may send your fleet to transport these resources. If possible, it would mean a great deal to leave behind some of the diamonds and zircons for our people."

Seeing Tian Guang's earnest request, Feng Mo laughed heartily. "Don't worry. I have no use for shiny trinkets; they're yours to keep. I will, however, be taking the dark matter and dark energy crystals, as well as the T3 and T4 materials. In exchange, I'll replace those materials with a fresh supply of sparkling items for your clan."

Tian Guang beamed and bowed deeply. "Thank you, Lord!"

With a wave, Feng Mo helped Tian Guang up, then inquired, "We've toured every storeroom, but I didn't see any interstellar seeds. Is there another place where they might be stored?"

"Yes, Lord. The interstellar seeds are not above ground but rather stored below. If you'll follow me," Tian Guang replied, leading the way to a smaller chamber at the back of the primary storeroom. Inside, a crystal elevator awaited.

Descending nearly 300 meters, they arrived at a compact crystalline space lined with shelves filled with delicate crystal boxes—an elegant display of the Crystal Fossil Clan's passion for crystal craftsmanship.

Tian Guang led Feng Mo to a particular shelf, where thirteen crystal boxes were arranged. He separated them into two groups—one with ten boxes and the other with three—before explaining, "Lord, these are the interstellar seeds we've collected over the last century. Due to limitations in our detection equipment, only ten of these seeds have identifiable qualities, while the remaining three are still unknown in grade and effect."

"Here are ten identifiable seeds," Tian Guang continued, "seven of which are T2 seeds. They mainly include various medicinal herbs and fruit trees, each with unique effects. I'll provide you with the details shortly. Of the remaining, two are T3 seeds, and one is a T4 seed."

He pointed to one of the T3 seeds. "This T3 seed is called the Ancient Life Tree—a species highly regarded by the Elven tribes. Its fruit can enhance biological genetic levels."

"The second T3 seed is a herbaceous plant, unnamed in our records, but its effects are known: consumption boosts male virility and slightly enhances skin toughness."

"Finally, the T4 seed is known as the Bloodthirsty Vine. It absorbs blood to produce fruit essential for T4 gene serums and serves as a secondary ingredient for T5 gene serum formulations."

Feng Mo nodded, noting the various effects of the seeds. Most of the T2 seeds were medicinal or bore edible fruit, beneficial for direct consumption or medicinal preparation.

The T3 seed, the Ancient Life Tree, was particularly familiar to Feng Mo and could be cultivated by the Elven tribes under his command—its grade even surpassed that of the one on the Elven capital. The other T3 seed, which resembled an aquatic flower, matched a record he'd read in the Federation database. Known as the "Cinnamon Lotus," it could be planted in pools, appearing like an ordinary plant but requiring energy blocks at its roots. Its seeds, whether consumed raw or prepared as medicine, were in high demand among male nobles.

This seed, especially prized among interstellar lords and noble families, was invaluable; after

all, not everyone could rely solely on eternal stamina.
