Chapter 1106 You Only Live Once
Ryuugong Island and Poseidon Island are quite big. They are just small islands on the surface. In fact, the human army of the New United Nations used nuclear weapons against Neon Mainland, causing 80% of Neon Mainland to be destroyed. It became a place of death, and the surviving Neon People hid in the only remaining lands─Hokkaido and Okinawa.
In order to survive and to allow humanity to exist forever, he embarked on the [Arcadian Project] on his own, with the goal of preserving all human information from the body to the culture in a single location. Build a "defensive fortress" on the sea, move in more than 2,000 residents, and eliminate its existence from both the human and Festum camps.
[Alves], the name of a fortress ship that can move on the sea or under the sea, an organization with the goal of executing the [Arcadian Project], uses an electromagnetic propulsion system driven by a heavy hydrogen nuclear reactor when sailing, inside the ship Almost all are controlled automatically, but operation and maintenance still require manual labor.
[Alves] A total of three ships were built, namely Ryugu Island, Poseidon Island and Horai Island, respectively preserving the Seto Inland Sea Star Core that was divided into three parts. However, regardless of the original history The trajectory has changed dramatically, and 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 took him there immediately There must be something to be said for being at the top of a lighthouse with no one else around.
"I can't give you my blessing." Minato Orihime said.
“Blessing?”
“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 A plurality of new star cores were also obtained, which also brought great progress to Ryugu Island. The existing Excalibur-type Valrhona and the newly built third improved Excalibur-type Valrhona SS began to undergo new changes, obtaining There is an eternal conductive circuit similar to the savior-type Valrhona, and there is also a super-dimensional phenomenon (SuperDimensionalPower, 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. Even if the driver does not drive, Funa can also activate SDP, and new assimilation phenomena that are different from the past will gradually appear over time.
Miyagi Orihime said that this is the star core that protects the pilots from dying due to the assimilation phenomenon in the past, but the price is that their bodies will gradually mutate.
This is the blessing from Orihime Capital, and it is also a powerful force.
Minato 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 have contained the Festum factor since birth, and its effect enables them to drive the Excalibur-type Valrhona. As a result, some people will develop signs of genius syndrome. On the other hand, the implantation of Festum factors is accompanied by great dangers, and the assimilation 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.
But Yang Hui is an outsider, he has no Festum factor, and his body does not have star core fragments.
"Giving blessings is actually about dividing your power with others, right? Will this shorten your time for activities outside?" Although Orihime Minaki is the human form clone of Ryugu Island's star core, this There is a limit to this form. If it reaches the limit, 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 the star core what the "cycle of life and death" is, the star core 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 Orihime Makiro was born.
But... Minato Orihime is not Minjo Otohime, they are completely different existences, so... If Minajō Orihime disappears, she really disappears, and the human form clone is reborn, It's not Minato Orihime anymore.
"...Yes."
"So cherish it. Since you have come to this world, no matter whether it is beautiful or not, it is worth experiencing. After all, life...is only once , isn’t it?”
"...This power is very powerful, you need this power."
"There are many powerful powers, and this is not the only one. You should know about the battle in the universe, right?"
>
"Yeah."
"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 [Dimension Devourer]... If there is a price to pay for great strength, there is no problem if you bear it yourself, but it is a bit uncomfortable for others to bear it..." Yang Hui shrugged.
“…You are not like other people.”
"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. I don’t know how many years it has existed, but the Minato Orihime in front of me 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.
Counting from Minato Otohime, her only friends are Tategami Seri and Nishio Rina on the island. Like Yang Hui, they have never known Minato Otohime and Minato Ori. Ji treats him not as a star core but as a good friend.
And now... Yang Hui is a warm-hearted and gentle big brother.
In principle, Minato Otohime and Minato 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 Orihime Miyagi behind him, drew his gun and pointed it at the position where he was standing just now.
In a flash, 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 mean no harm.”
“She is not an enemy.”
The woman who appeared and Minato 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 seek peaceful coexistence between humans and Festum. Festum assimilation is also a pioneer in this world on the road to mutual understanding.
The woman in front of her wearing a real red skin is Festum, Mjolnir, the first Festum to take the initiative to contact humans and understand each other.
"Why haven't I seen you before?" Kasugai Kohiro is already a Festum, and Monnier and Kasugai Kōhi are from the same faction. Logically speaking, Monnier should be the representative of Festum, a faction close to humans, but before She didn't show up.
"I have some things to do and I didn't have time to come back."
"So, what do you want from me?" Yang Hui asked.
"The individual Kasugai Kohiro and the individual Lai Zhucao have passed all your information to us, and we are here to seek unity."
"You?"
"Yes, the actions of Kasugai Kahiro, Lai Zhucao and I 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 Kohiro, Lai Zhucao, and all the Festum who helped Ryugu Island could not represent the entire group. This was 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.
Originally, the faction close to humans and the faction that destroys humans, Festum, were mortal enemies. The arrival of the alien Festum tribe, annexed and assimilated the Festum, the faction that destroyed humans, and the situation of Festum, the faction close to humans, became even more difficult.
And now, after receiving the information sent back by Kasugai Kahiro and Lai Zhucao, the entire group judged that Yang Hui and the Promis Legion were trustworthy, so Monnier came and sought 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." Miao Nier said.
“No problem, I will inform our people not to attack you, but due to the special characteristics of each other, I request... Before our fleet has the means to resist assimilation, the two sides should not make contact and maintain a certain level. Safe distance." Yang Hui put forward his request. Not all Festum can turn into human form, and not all Festum can control their assimilation ability.
