Ryugu Island and Poseidon Island are quite large. They are small islands on the surface. In fact, the human army of the New United Nations used nuclear weapons against the Neon mainland, causing 80% of the Neon mainland to become a dead place. The surviving Neon people hid in
The only remaining land─Hokkaido and Okinawa.
In order to survive and to allow human beings to exist forever, he embarked on the [Arcadian Project] on his own. The purpose was to preserve all human information from physical to cultural in a single location. He built a "defensive fortress" on the sea and moved more than 2,000 people there.
inhabitants, and erased their existence from both human and Festum camps.
[Alves] is the name of a fortress ship that can move on the sea or under the sea. It is an organization with the goal of executing the [Arcadian Project]. It uses an electromagnetic propulsion system driven by a heavy hydrogen nuclear reactor when sailing. Almost all the ships adopt automatic control.
, but operation and maintenance still require the use of manpower.
[Alves] built a total of three ships, namely Ryugu Island, Poseidon Island and Horai Island, respectively to preserve the Seto Inland Sea star core that was divided into three parts. However, regardless of the original historical trajectory, huge changes have occurred.
Now that the changes have occurred, Penglai Island has been completely destroyed.
Under the guidance of Miyagi Orihime, Yang Hui went all the way to the top of the lighthouse on the island, and looked at the distant sea with Miyagi Orihime.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, Minato Orihime." Yang Hui knew that Minato Orihime must know which places on the island Yang Hui wanted to visit the most, but she immediately took herself to the top of the lighthouse where there was no one else.
, there must be something to say.
"I can't give you my blessing." Minato Orihime said.
"bless?"
"Yes, the blessing given to children by the Star Core."
This matter begins with the first [Operation Sky] carried out in the North Pole. At the end of the operation, the Polaris core continued to rise into the universe, trying to completely cover the earth with the Festum in outer space. It was eventually shot down and shattered into a large number of star cores.
Debris is scattered around the world.
Then, the New United Nations had not been destroyed at that time, so people were sent everywhere to recover the star core fragments scattered everywhere. After that, Emily arrived at Ryugu Island with multiple star core fragments to communicate, and Ryugu Island also received multiple new ones.
The Star Core has also brought great progress to Ryugu Island. The existing Excalibur-type Valrhona and the newly-created third improved Excalibur-type Valrhona SS have begun to undergo new changes, gaining a magic similar to that of the savior type.
There is an eternal conductive circuit similar to Funa, and there is also a super dimensional phenomenon (Super Dimensional Power, referred to as SDP) that is the same as Festum's power.
The effect of SDP is corresponding to individual pilots. When they transfer to other aircraft, they will bring the original SDP with them and it will be weakened from time to time. Only the original aircraft can exert its maximum effectiveness. The driver can activate SDP even if he is not flying Valrhona.
, and new assimilation phenomena that are different from the past will gradually appear over time.
Miyagi Orihime said that this star core protected the pilots from dying due to the assimilation phenomenon in the past, but the price was that their bodies would gradually mutate.
This is the blessing from Orihime Miyagi's mouth, and it is also a powerful force.
Makiro Orihime is the star core of Ryugu Island. Except for Hino Miu, the children on Ryugu Island are not born normally, but are artificially cultivated, because the adults on the island are all original Neon people, and all the original Neon people are in Setouchi.
After the starfish core arrives, it is impossible to have children because of the toxins emitted by the star core.
The genetic genes of these artificially bred children contain the Festum factor since birth, and its effect enables them to drive the Excalibur-type Valrhona. Due to its influence, some people will develop signs of genius syndrome. On the other hand, the Festum factor
The implantation is accompanied by great dangers, and the assimilation phenomenon of Festum may occur.
At the same time, Favna itself is also a special machine equipped with star core fragments. Both the pilot and the machine can be counted as half a Festum, so the star core can bestow blessings on them.
Yang Hui, on the other hand, is an outsider. He has no Festum factor and no star core fragments in his body.
"Giving a blessing means that you are actually dividing your power to others, right? Will this shorten your time for activities outside?" Although Orihime Minato is the human form clone of Ryugu Island's star core, this form has its limits.
, if the limit is reached, Miyagi Orihime has to return to the artificial breeding cabin, merge with the star core body again, and give birth to the next clone.
Minato Orihime is already the second human form clone. The first human form clone is called Minaki Otohime. Because she taught Hoshiko what the "cycle of life and death" is, Hoshiko will learn the new knowledge.
The knowledge was used on Minato Otohime, causing her to die quickly and return to the star core.
Because of the arrival of the alien Festum, the crisis of mankind, and the crisis of Ryugu Island, the birth of Miyagi Orihime was born.
But... Minato Orihime is not Minjo Otohime. They are completely different existences. Therefore... if Minajō Orihime disappears, she really disappears. The human form clone that is reborn is not Minjo Orihime.
.
"……Yes."
"So cherish it. Now that you have come to this world, no matter whether it is beautiful or not, it is worth experiencing. After all, life... you only have one, right?"
"...This power is very powerful, you need this power."
"There are many powerful powers, but this is not the only one. You should know about the battles in the universe, right?"
"Um."
"Isn't the moonlight cannon strong? Aren't the reactive bombs strong? We also have MDE bombs, Genesis, super-heavy quantum reaction cannons, and even the [Dimension Devourer]... If there is a price for strong strength, it is up to you.
There’s nothing wrong with bearing it, but it’s a bit uncomfortable for others to bear it,” Yang Hui said with a shrug.
"...You are different from others."
"This should be something you have learned a long time ago, Minato Orihime, or... Star Core, Minato Otome and Minato Orihime, are they the same?"
"..."
"So, think more about yourself, not from the perspective of Star Core, but from the perspective of Minato Orihime." After saying that, Yang Hui reached out and rubbed Minato Orihime's head. Star Core no longer existed.
How many years have passed, but the Minato Orihime in front of her is indeed just a child of a few years old.
Miyagi Orihime felt all this with an expressionless face. This was very new to her and to Xinghe. She had never had such an experience. Every time she was born, most of the people around her were afraid of her and rejected her.
, because she is not a real human being, but a clone of Star Core.
Starting from Minato Otohime, her only friends are Seri Tatejo and Rina Nishio on the island. Like Yang Hui, they never regarded Minato Otome and Minato Orihime as star cores, but as good friends.
And now... Yang Hui is a warm-hearted and gentle big brother.
In principle, Minjo Otohime and Minjo Orihime have a biological brother, but that brother has never seen her as a sister, and was even very jealous and wary of her at one time.
"If that's what you want to say, let's go down. We can't just stay here and enjoy the breeze, right?" Yang Hui teased.
"...There is someone who wants to see you."
"Huh? Who!?"
Yang Hui was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt an abnormal mental wave coming from behind. He subconsciously protected Miyagi Orihime behind him, drew his gun and pointed it at the position where he was standing just now.
I saw a flash of figure, and a woman with short black hair in a white coat stood in front of Yang Hui, with her hands in her pockets and an expressionless face.
"I have no ill intentions."
"She is not the enemy."
The woman who appeared and Minaki Orihime said at the same time.
"...Should I call you Maki Hongyin, or Monnier?" Yang Hui recognized who it was and put away his gun and asked.
"The person named Makabe Kone no longer exists. I am Mjolnir."
Makabe Kone, Makabe Fumihiko's wife, took the initiative to assimilate with Festum in order to seek peaceful coexistence between humans and Festum. She is also a pioneer on the road to mutual understanding in this world.
The woman in front of her, wearing a mahogany red skin, is Festum, the first Festum to take the initiative to contact humans and understand each other, Mjolnir.
"Why haven't I seen you before?" Kasugai Kohiro is already a Festum, and Monnier and Kasugai Kōhi belong to the same faction. Logically speaking, Monnier should be the representative of Festum, a faction close to humans, but she didn't show up before.
"I have some things to do and I didn't have time to get back."
"So, what do you want from me?" Yang Hui asked.
"Individual Kasugai Kohiro and individual Lai Zhucao have passed all your information to us, and we are here to seek unity."
"you?"
"Yes, Kasugai Kohiro and I, the actions we took here are all based on personal judgment and cannot represent the entire ethnic group. The ethnic group's willingness to contact humans does not mean it trusts humans."
Yang Hui accepted Monnier's explanation. Monnier, Kasugai Kahiro, Lai Zhucao, and all the Festum who helped Ryugu Island cannot represent the entire group. This is their own judgment after communication.
and decision.
As for other Festums that are close to humans...it can only be said that this is a mess left by the new United Nations.
The Festum, a faction close to humans, and the faction that destroys humans were originally mortal enemies. The alien Festum tribe came, annexed, and assimilated the Festum, a faction that destroyed humans. The situation of Festum, a faction close to humans, became even more difficult.
But now, after receiving the information sent back by Kasugai Kohiro and Lai Zhucao, the entire tribe judged that Yang Hui and the Promis Legion were trustworthy, so Mjolnir came to seek alliance with Yang Hui.
"Okay." Yang Hui had no reason to object to this. The situation they were in was already very bad, so naturally they had to unite all the forces that could be united to face the crisis together.
"I will stay on Longgong Island for the time being. As a medium of communication, the tribe will go to the Srinagar area first and wait for your arrival." Monnier said.
"No problem, I will inform our people not to attack you, but due to the special characteristics of each other, I request... until our fleet has the means to resist assimilation, the two sides should not make contact and maintain a certain safe distance." Yang Hui proposed.
In order to meet their own requirements, not all Festum can transform into human form, and not all Festum can control their own assimilation abilities.
