Chapter 1106 You only live once

Ryugu Island and Poseidon Island are quite large. On the surface, it is a small island. In fact, the human army of the New United Nations used nuclear weapons on the Japanese mainland, causing 80% of the Japanese mainland to become a dead place. The surviving Japanese hid in the only remaining land - Hokkaido and Okinawa.

In order to survive and to allow humans to exist forever, he embarked on the [Arcadian Project] alone, with the goal of preserving all human information from the physical to the cultural in a single location. He built a "dedicated defense fortress" on the sea, moved more than 2,000 residents, and erased its existence from both the human and Festum camps.

[Alvis] is the name of a fortress ship that can move on the sea or the seabed. It is an organization that aims to implement the [Arcadian Project]. When sailing, it uses an electromagnetic propulsion system driven by a heavy hydrogen nuclear reactor. Almost all of the ship is automated, but operation and maintenance still require manpower.

【Alvis】 built three ships in total, namely Ryugu Island, Poseidon Island and Penglai Island, which respectively preserved the Seto Inland Sea star core divided into three parts. However, regardless of the original historical trajectory or the current situation with great changes, Penglai Island has been completely destroyed.

Under the guidance of Minamijo Orihime, Yang Hui came all the way to the top of the lighthouse on the island and looked out at the distant sea with Minamijo Orihime.

"Just say it, Minamijo Orihime." Yang Hui knew that Minamijo Orihime must know which places on the island Yang Hui wanted to visit the most, but she took him to the top of the lighthouse where no one else was in the first place, and she must have something to say.

"I can't give you a blessing." Minamijo Orihime said.

"Blessing?"

"Yes, the star core gives the children a blessing."

This matter started with the first 【Sky Operation】 carried out in the North Pole. At the end of the operation, the North Pole star core continued to rise towards the universe, attempting to completely cover the earth together with Festum in outer space. It was eventually shot down and shattered into a large number of star core fragments scattered all over the world.

Then, at that time, the New United Nations had not been destroyed yet, so people were sent everywhere to recover the scattered star core fragments. After that, Emily brought multiple star core fragments to Ryugu Island for communication, and Ryugu Island also obtained multiple new star cores, which also brought great progress to Ryugu Island. The existing Excalibur Valrhona and the newly created third improved Excalibur Valrhona SS began to have new changes, and obtained the same eternal conductive circuit as the Savior Valrhona, and the same super dimensional phenomenon (Super Dimensional Power, SDP) as the Festum power.

The effect of SDP is that when they change to other machines, they will take the original SDP with them and it will be weakened. Only the original machine can exert the maximum efficiency. Even if the driver does not drive the Valrhona, he can activate the SDP, and new assimilation phenomena different from the past will gradually appear over time.

Orihime Minamijo said that it was the star core that protected the drivers from dying due to the assimilation phenomenon in the past, but the price was that their bodies would gradually mutate.

This is the blessing mentioned by Orihime Minamijo, and it is also a powerful power.

Minashiro Orihime is the star core of Ryugu Island. Except for Hino Miu, the children of Ryugu Island are not born normally, but artificially bred, because all the adults on the island are former Japanese. After the star core of the Seto Inland Sea descended, all the former Japanese were unable to reproduce because of the toxins emitted by the star core.

And these artificially bred children have the Festum factor in their genetic factors since birth, and its effect enables them to drive the Excalibur Valrhona. Due to its influence, some people will show signs of genius syndrome. On the other hand, the implantation of the Festum factor is accompanied by great danger, and the assimilation of the Festum may occur.

At the same time, Valrhona itself is also a special body equipped with star core fragments. Whether it is the pilot or the body, it can be considered half a Festum, so the star core can bless them.

And Yang Hui is an outsider, without the Festum factor, and the body does not have star core fragments.

"Giving blessings is actually dividing your power to others, right? This will shorten the time you can be active outside, right?" Although Minamijo Orihime is the human form clone of the Ryugu Island star core, this form has its limits. If it reaches the limit, Minamijo Orihime will have to return to the artificial breeding cabin and merge with the star core again to breed the next clone.

Minamijo Orihime is already the second human form clone. The first human form clone is called Minamijo Otohime. Because she taught the star core what the "cycle of life and death" is, the star core used the new knowledge on Minamijo Otohime, causing Minamijo Otohime 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, Minamijo Orihime was born.

But... Minamijo Orihime is not Minamijo Otohime. They are completely different existences, so... If Minamijo Orihime disappears, she will really disappear, and the human form clone born again will not be Minamijo Orihime.

"...Yes."

"So cherish it. Since you have come to this world, whether it is good or not, it is worth experiencing. After all, life... is only once, isn't it?"

"...This power is very strong. You need this power."

"There are many powerful powers, not just this one. You should know about the battle in the universe, right?"

"Yes."

"Isn't the moonlight cannon strong? Aren't the reaction 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 about yourself more, not from the perspective of the Star Core, but from the perspective of Minato Orihime." After saying that, Yang Hui reached out and rubbed Minato Orihime's head. The 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 Tategami Seri and Nishio Rina on the island. Like Yang Hui, they never regarded Minato Othime and Minato Orihime as star cores, but as good friends.

And now... Yang Hui is a warm-hearted and gentle big brother.

In principle, Otohime Minjo and Orihime Minjo 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.

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's not the enemy."

The woman who appeared and Minaki Orihime said at the same time.

"...Should I call you Makabe 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."

Koine Makabe, the wife of Fumihiko Makabe, took the initiative to assimilate with Festum in order to seek peaceful coexistence between humans and Festum. She is also a pioneer in this world on the road to mutual understanding.

The woman in front of her, wearing a mahogany red skin, is Festum. She is also 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, 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.

The Festum, a faction close to humans, and the faction that destroys humans were originally mortal enemies. The arrival of the alien Festum group, annexed and assimilated the Festum, a faction that destroyed humans, and 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 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... 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 Not all Festum can transform into human form in accordance with their own requirements, and not all Festum can control their own assimilation abilities.
