Wei stood at the center of his base, now transformed into a fortress brimming with plasma towers, advanced generators, and automated systems. His gaze fell on the Orbital Ship Chassis he had constructed earlier—a gleaming skeleton awaiting the integration of systems needed for a functional starship. The next step was clear: he needed a Void Propulsion System, an advanced technology he had unlocked with the Warframe module.

Wei reviewed the requirements for the Void Propulsion System:
[Blueprint: Void Propulsion System (Warframe)]
Description: An advanced engine utilizing void energy for efficient and silent propulsion.
Requirements:
Energized Crystals x3 Void Core x1 Advanced Circuits x5 Dimensional-Energy Structures x2
He had most of the materials, except for the Dimensional-Energy Structures—a rare component that seemed beyond his current fabrication capacity.
"Ghost, where can we find these structures?"
"I've detected a high-energy signal from a crashed alien ship to the north," the Ghost replied. "It likely contains advanced technology, but the site is highly unstable."
Wei nodded, ready for another risky mission.
Mission: Recover Dimensional-Energy Structures from the Alien Ship
The alien ship was massive, its design seemingly defying the laws of physics. Its hull was covered in faintly glowing runes, and an atmosphere charged with energy enveloped the site. Parking his Scrap Speeder at a safe distance, Wei activated his Light Fragment to bolster his resistance against any anomalies.
Inside the ship, a metallic and repetitive sound greeted him. Alien drones emerged from the shadows, their violet eyes glowing menacingly.
[Alert: Enemies Detected]
Advanced Alien Drones (Level 8)
Wei activated his Scrap Sniper, targeting the drones' vulnerable points. They were fast and resilient, but he used a combination of EMP grenades and strategic cover to defeat them. After an intense battle, he reached the ship's energy chamber.
At the center, two devices glowed intensely, floating within an energy field.
[Resource Collected: Dimensional-Energy Structures x2]
"This should do it," Wei said, exiting the ship as more drones began to appear.
Constructing the Void Propulsion System
Back at the base, Wei placed the materials into the Automated Construction Platform and initiated the fabrication of the engine.
[Void Propulsion System Constructed]
Functions:
Silent and efficient propulsion powered by void energy. Capable of advanced maneuvers in space combat.
Wei installed the system onto the Orbital Ship Chassis, which was now beginning to resemble an actual spacecraft.
Installing the Advanced Neural Management Module
With the engine installed, Wei knew the next step was to integrate a neural management module, essential for controlling all the ship's systems. He opened the Halo tab in his HUD and reviewed the requirements.
[Blueprint: Advanced Neural Management Module (Halo)]
Description: An advanced control panel that links the ship's systems to the pilot via neural interface.
Requirements:
Bio-Mechanical Processors x1 Advanced Circuits x3 Energized Crystals x2
He needed a Bio-Mechanical Processor, a component requiring a blend of Warframe and Starcraft technologies.
The Ghost suggested exploring an alien research facility to the west, where advanced technology signals had been detected.
Mission: Recover the Bio-Mechanical Processor
The research facility was unlike anything Wei had ever seen. Its corridors were illuminated by pulsating lights, and organic structures seemed to grow along the walls, merging with metal.
Activating his Light Fragment for protection against the strange atmosphere, Wei pressed forward, encountering hybrid drones attacking in ambushes.
After navigating the labs, he found the processor on a pedestal, shielded by an energy field. Using his Hacking Tool, he deactivated the defenses and retrieved the item.
[Resource Collected: Bio-Mechanical Processor x1]
Back at the base, Wei crafted the Advanced Neural Management Module and installed it into the ship.
[Advanced Neural Management Module Installed]
Functions:
Direct interface between the pilot and the ship. Control over all ship systems, including weaponry and propulsion. One Step Closer to the Stars
Wei stood before the Orbital Ship, now equipped with a Void engine and neural systems. Though much work remained, he felt closer than ever to leaving this scrapyard planet behind.
"Every step counts," he said, wiping the sweat from his brow.
The Ghost floated beside him, glowing brightly. "We're on the right track, Wei. But remember, the closer we get to our goal, the greater the challenges we'll face."
Wei nodded, resolute. "Then let's prepare for whatever comes next. This planet still has more to offer, and I'll make the most of every bit."
