Japan: A New Age

First Contact

The flying frigate "Ozora” bridge, captain 2nd Sergeant Morisha, was looking outside the ship sailing at 250,000 km/h after the superlight flight was over. I don't really feel speed because I don't have an object that feels speed nearby.

Morishita attempted to descend the decree of promotion to Ichizo because he had set a major handle on destroying all nuclear missile bases in the earlier operation against China, but remained a captain of your ship in rhetoric. It's basically to become a manager and leave the scene when you're in Ichigo. In addition, Morishi secretly rooted for alumni and others, and succeeded in sending Ozo, who was originally planning to stay in Japan, to space exploration.

There, the Sun looks small in the distance in a star system 55 light years away from Earth. There are 10 planets, and the third planet is promising due to the size and distance of the Sun. But it doesn't look very blue when you look at it in a telescope. There are still 3 billion kilometers to the target planet, so it takes three hours to get there.

When the star comes to see its position on the moon on Earth, the surface becomes clearly visible with telescopic functions.

"What! This was" the staff who saw the screen on the bridge screamed unexpectedly.

There is the sea, there is land. But the land is full of craters, brown and yellow dirty colored mosaics and the sea is yellow and cloudy.

"Captain, the surface is incredibly radioactive," says observer Tsuyama.

"Is this a nuclear bomb?" Xuyama answers Morishita's question.

"It would be. It must have rained a nuclear bomb all over the planet."

"But there seemed to be quite a bit of civilization," Morishi said.

Among the craters, we can see everything after artificially altering the terrain.

Furthermore, as we approach, we see the destroyed concrete like building, the torn iron tower, as a sign that there was clearly a massive city. Everywhere, the rest of the green forest is also visible.

"Not yet, probably less than a year ago. Looks like he still has a fever."

"Either way, we can't get off with this high radioactivity, and the organism will be wiped out first," Morishi says.

"Wait. Radio waves are on. I think, perhaps, the footage will show" while Yoshida, the correspondent, said, the screen changed and the footage of a young woman appeared.

He wears clothes with a loose somewhat flashy pattern and lowers a large pendant.

Though the body is hardly different from the Earthlings just by looking at it, the face is only about half the size, although the eyes are clearly farther away and larger than the humans, and the ears are in a normal position. Also, the nose is about half as tall as the ear. So if it's ugly, it looks appealing because it's not and your eyes are lively. The woman bows respectfully. And point to the screen you keep aside and do the trick of looking at it. and the screen switched to descriptions by pictures.

Numbers are explained by the conversion method and designed to be easily understood.

According to the explanation, the planet was inhabited by a 20,000-year-old people (pronounced Armal) who lived in peace, but two years ago a giant spaceship (which seems to be about 500m long) appeared and flew around to explore the area around Armal. The Armal star is also rocket-type, but there is a spaceship, which I called upon differently but no answer whatsoever, and left about 10 days later.

But a year ago he came back with a fleet of about 100 aircraft and did not answer any of Armal's calls, adding heavy bombardment as it were. As a result, in just a few days Armal has become what it is today, and in addition to 2.3 billion people, all animals have been wiped out. Perhaps what the plants have also survived will be a terrible malformation.

The scene was brilliantly revealed on the screen and the content was completely understandable. It is clearly evidence of a sophisticated civilization.

Afterwards, the request that you come to the moon of the star Armal was another painting.

The planet Armal has satellites about 10 km in diameter, which are smooth spherical in all places but as a whole. I wanted to learn the Earth's language during the trip, so I had another request from the painting to send footage such as Earth news and movies, and I compressed it with Morishi's approval and sent data for every 10 hours of footage.

As we reached the surface of a satellite called Yuma and moved as directed, the antenna stretched from the ground and a large square cavity appeared next to it. There's plenty of room for you.

The ceiling closes when you enter the cavity as instructed by Morishi.

Now a woman on the screen said in clear Japanese: "Soon, I will turn on the airlock and fill it with air, so wait a minute".

After a few seconds, the lighting is on and the reinforcement material is visible as a protruding air lock. After another 5 minutes or so, "the air lock was filled with air. The air pressure inside is 1000 millibars, and with 22% oxygen and 78% nitrogen, it's much the same as your air, so you can breathe like that," says the woman as well.

It is certainly an ingredient that is said to be taken and analyzed. In addition, a simplified epidemiological survey was conducted but no problematic elements were found. When I notice, I see a shadow in the corner of the airlock. It was the woman on the screen.

"Okay, me and, five people are going outside. Nine or fewer deputy directors will stay inside. I want you to increase the sensitivity of the antenna so that the terminal can connect. Then, Shibata, Kameda, Sakayama, Yamaji, everyone follow me" Morisha directs.

Once inside the airlock, it smells a little metallic but is refreshing air and has no breathing problems.

The following line below Morishi walks toward the woman. Approaching the most recent, the woman carefully bows her head and opens her mouth.

"I am the terminal of the administrator of this base, Larna 1202. It would be inconvenient not to have a name, so call me Alice."

"That kind of thing, you're a robot?

"That's the way you say it, but it's made of a synthesis of organisms and metals. Basically, you don't have your own intelligence, you're part of a mother machine, Larna."

"Suddenly the words seem to be speaking, but I guess this is the result of analyzing the data I sent." Alice answers Morishi's question.

"That's right. The Japanese and Armal translators are already complete."

"That's fast. Your civilization seems to be excellent in communication and such areas," Morishita says.

"Yes, in that respect. By the way, I'd like to talk more about your favor, such as why you called."

"Yeah, fine," Morishi responds.

"Here, then" Alice leads you inside the door that opens automatically.

In the room, there is a chair for the number of people who seem to be sitting around a large white desk. Everyone sits down and Alice starts talking.

"Now, that's why I called you, but we Armals have been very good at, among other things, studying communication, psychology, and living comfortably with people. Also, some alien civilizations only communicated but had contact. Therefore, we analyzed the short contact with you and the news and other footage you sent us, and decided to entrust the future of the Armals to you Japanese in particular."

"Yes! The future! What do you mean," Alice continues under a surprising forest.

"Actually, it wasn't like the Armals were completely unprepared at the time of the raid. However, the majority opinion did not think that that alien ship would commit such an outrage, so we prepared our defensive posture as best we could, but we had no idea until the vast majority of people evacuated, nor did we implement it.

But in force, it was almost clear that they could probably not be countered, so some people felt and moved a sense of crisis in the sense of the survival of the species of the Armals. For this reason, we have maintained the original base this month, choosing 50 boys and girls at a time, and are ready to let them into frozen sleep at this base. In addition, a certain number of fertilized eggs are also ensured. We've also rigorously disguised this base and installed equipment that you won't find even after carrying out so many detections.

And when the offensive fleet arrived, it immediately transported the chosen ones to the base, itself watching over the end of the Armal star and then into frozen sleep in grief. In fact, with our interactive species coming to see how things were going, frozen sleep was expected to last about 10 years. But considering they and the possibility of being raided, we design frozen sleep to last for up to 200 years.

A hundred boys and girls from this base are the last hope of a species called Armal. I do not believe it is possible to revive the Armal star, which has already been destroyed and contaminated like that. So those 100 people need to build a new world on another planet. Please, I want you to give them a new home to do it. You Japanese say you are giving a planet you discovered to a foreign country that was sometimes in conflict.

Give them a chance to make a new country too "

Alice says, from the way she complains with that passion, she doesn't look like a robot no matter what.

"Yeah, we'd love to, too. But we don't have the authority to make decisions like that. So please come to our country and make the same appeal. I'm sure I'll be admitted. Also, of all the things we've heard, we seem to have something more advanced in terms of technology. I think that if you provide that, then we will make a decision on assistance," Alice says in Morishi's words.

"Yes, of course we will provide the technology we have. But we also want your technology for gravitational manipulation, your technology for superlight speed, and your technology for bouncing back the violence that struck us. Other than that, we don't have the means to defend ourselves when we're under the same attack again."

"I want you to come to our country and talk about it, including that. But only five more people can comfortably board my ship. As soon as we arrive in Japan, we will send the boat and the rest of us will carry it, so we want you to sort out four or five people for now and talk in front of the people of our country," Morishita said.

"Yeah, I think so. I'm currently in the process of awakening four people. Can you wait another 6 hours?"

"Okay. We want to eat and sleep too, so we'll be back down in 10 hours. Are you sure about that," Morishita says.

"Yes, if you will."

Morishita etc. will return to the ship and explain the situation to the waiting crew.

Says Yasuda, deputy chief.

"From the circumstances, what that Alice is saying just seems true. But will it be so easy for the government to promise assistance"

"Regardless of the government, the people will agree. But it will definitely take some time. So, first of all, I want to make my way to the New Horizon without going to Earth.

Put it on 5 days sooner than you go to Earth. More importantly, there you are now, Shunhei Yoshikawa. He's definitely going to help the Armals first. And more importantly, we now know that there is a ferocious race in the vicinity of this universe that suddenly destroys the developed planet of civilization. It just panics me to go back to Japan on Earth and tell this story, but with you, Shunhei, I'll probably start developing a means to counter it. I think it's a much smarter move for mankind than Japan. "

The crew, naturally, all strongly agree.

The next morning, as the Morishitas descended from the ship to the airlock, Alice waits just as she did yesterday.

"Go ahead" when you open the door and invite them through to the same room as yesterday, but the difference is that there are two young men and women standing there, one at a time. The woman's body looks just like Alice's, her hips are limp and her breasts stick out, while the man is still just like the Earthlings, her shoulder width is wide and her body is disappointed. However, there is not much fudge in the diameter area. The face is still alive and attractive, like Alice's, nose, big eyes with small ears but away.

"I'll introduce you. The first two men here are Acra Min Von and Mizume Tong Lana. Also women are Linan Kung Sanka and Kiami Sal Michil" they are now representatives of the Armals.

Alice introduces and says even more. "Also, the box that everyone sits on is a translator, which translates Japanese and Armal."

"I'm 2nd Sergeant Morisha of the Japanese State and Defense Forces. Starship, this is your captain."

Morishita first offers two men a handshake. "This is the first ritual of greeting of our stars, holding each other's hands"

"Call me Acra. From now on, it means that you can take me to your country, so thank you" A slightly taller Accra grips down the forest hand disappointingly. The gravity of the Armal star is about 10% greater than that of the Earth, so the force is strong.

"Nice to meet you," Morishi grips back strongly as well. In this way we greet each other in the form of a handshake, each sitting in a chair and starting the conversation.

"First, I want you to decide on a leader among yourselves. Essentially, I want you to first tell the leader what you want to tell them, and then tell everyone from the leader. All right?

They raise their right hand with their palms facing each other. "Oh, this is the signal of our understanding. Uh, I guess I'm the leader."

After Accra explains it, she tells her people. The other members play a hand in favour.

"That's what makes me the leader."

"Thanks. Then I'd like to explain my schedule from now on. I guess."

Everyone agrees.

"Thank you. Well, first I'm taking you four to Earth, Japan, but it's roughly 55 light years to Earth, so it'll take 48 days"

"Yes! Only 48 days!" 4 surprised.

"No, I think it's been long enough," Morishi smiles bitterly, adding.

"I would therefore like to descend on the colonial planet that I am now developing first. I'll put it on this planet five days early, but that's not why, because there are the best scientists on my planet there, I want to start counteracting the ferocious opponents who committed this crime by passing on the information here, your tragedy, as soon as possible."

Morishita continues looking over at everyone.

"Then I want you to go to Earth and tell your planet about the tragedy that happened. I believe that Japan, my country, will definitely help you create a new world. Before that, I think Junpei, who meets on the first planet we got off, will help us."

"Yeah, Junpei, is he the best scientist"

"Yeah, I'm about your age. You'll see," Morishi continued.

"In any case, as soon as we get to the colonial planet Shinmatsu, we ask you to give us the passenger ship. It's a 3,000-person plane, so we can put enough equipment and luggage on it. Plus, when we leave this time depends on how long it takes you guys to get ready."

"Regarding that, may I say we leave tomorrow? We are currently providing information input for the sister aircraft of Rama 1202, and in conjunction with that, we will accompany Alice and two of the same type," Alice replies.

"But I wonder how big that sister plane is"

"Roughly, it's about 1mx2mx2m high, and the weight is, right, about a ton," says Alice. Morishi looks at the deputy director.

The deputy director said, "It's okay. Long voyages have also reduced our stock of consumables."

"Okay, so we're leaving tomorrow in 20 hours, so that's good," Morishita asks for the last time to understand.
