Machine Lion Roar

Among the huge conference room.

Is a piece of silence,

It was the crowd surrounded by silence and unprecedented pressure.

Among them, there are military personnel, ruling personnel, and top scientists from various fields.

Today, the reason they are gathered in the highest-level security conference room located on the ground floor of the UN headquarters is because of the disposal plan for the asteroid that has broken through the orbit of the earth and the moon.

In this silent pressure, no one dared to speak up.

This is because the only plan before everyone is the one that is well-known but that all countries are afraid of.

Finally, in this vacillating and silent atmosphere, a scientist from the International Astronomical Union couldn't help but jump out and wanted to say a few words, but was pressed down by his colleagues.

"Everyone. It's time to vote."

Sitting at the forefront of the conference table, representatives from a distant ancient country spoke first.After seeing that he focused everyone's attention on him, he continued:

"As we sit here hesitating, the asteroid numbered Z00061 is already very close to us. If we drag it this way, we may miss the best time to leave the Earth's orbit."

As soon as this statement came out, there was a burst of discussion.

Yes.

The asteroid numbered Z00061 came too soon.

When I discovered that it appeared in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter not long ago, I didn't expect it to break through the Earth-Moon orbit in such a short time.This speed makes plans to send satellites to be used for monitoring.At the same time, looking at the asteroids that are getting closer and closer to the earth, all countries are invariably feeling worried and anxious.

Especially at such a short distance, the conclusions reached after most detection methods of mankind can scan the asteroid dozens of times are even more worrying for all countries.

This is not a rock mixed with various minerals and gases, but an asteroid that may be formed by a high-density metal unknown to humans.

In other words, after discovering the incredible composition of this asteroid, when the asteroid enters the atmosphere, it will be torn apart by the atmosphere, thereby reducing the impact on the earth. The plan is like the plan to send a satellite to monitor Generally failed.

"Can it work?"

The blond man sitting on the other side slowly spoke.

He is not like the man sitting across from him, able to obtain the qualifications of plenipotentiary from the country, so he appears to be extra cautious when making a decision.

Even if he knows that every second counts.

Every minute that passes, it means that the asteroid Z00061 gets closer to the earth.

As long as this asteroid crosses the final distance, then it means that everything will be irretrievable.

No one knows that this planet may be torn apart by the atmosphere, or what kind of disaster it will bring about a whole asteroid hitting the earth.

"What are you still hesitating? Didn't we clearly point out in the earlier report? Z00061 will not be torn apart by the atmosphere at all! The composition of this asteroid is currently unresolved by most of us. It is composed of high-density metal! If this metal asteroid hits the earth in this way, the countries and regions in the vicinity will inevitably suffer great casualties!!

The scientist who had been pushed down by his peers finally couldn't help standing up again, shouting loudly, and issuing a loud warning.

"Professor, please sit down! I believe we have made a decision!"

After the representatives from the ancient countries calmed the anxious scientist a little, they stood up and looked around at the representatives of the countries.

"Okay! Now, you must all know how urgent the situation is. If it continues to be like this endlessly, then it means that our humanity will have at least hundreds of millions of compatriots suffering from an extinction from heaven. "

As soon as the voice fell, the blond man sitting opposite took the lead by showing his hands to vote.

With the vote of the blond man, half of the people in the entire conference room also voted.

And around the representatives of the ancient countries, they also followed the representatives of the ancient countries and voted by show of hands.

Twelve hours later, on the earth, white plumes of smoke rose up from the borders of the countries at the top of civilization, toward the void of space, and toward the asteroid that was about to break through its final orbit.

"The missiles of various countries have been launched. The target is the asteroid number Z00061, and the orbit is abnormal."

When CIC announced that everything was normal, everyone was relieved.

"It's really a cut-off!"

Lei Mingkai, who was standing next to Theresa with Richard, couldn't help but sighed.

The attitude shown by humans in this world really gave Lei Mingkai some new understanding.

Unexpectedly, in the face of the alien disaster, there would be such a courageous force, and together they would attack the alien from the alien with the big killer weapon they possessed.

This is really an amazing performance.

But at the same time, Lei Mingkai was also secretly surprised.

Because the amalgam hidden in the dark has been developed in decades, and it seems that it has spread to all walks of life in various countries, and there may be members of amalgam in every field.Under such circumstances, perhaps the unity of various countries this time may be due to the operation of amalgam in the dark.

However, this is only Lei Mingkai's conjecture, and it is most likely wishful thinking.

After all, compared with Mithril, which has a compact organization structure and orders from top to bottom, they are independent and act separately when nothing happens. The non-interfering amalgam does not seem to have the idea of ​​truly uniting all forces.

People who have this kind of thinking have either left the world or been rejected and left the amalgam organization.

"It seems that this time the alien disaster may be solved in this way."

Richard, who has been in service for a long time and even experienced the most terrifying Cold War period in human history, naturally sighed at the unity shown by mankind at this moment.For this reason, he firmly believes that the human beings who show such unity will inevitably resolve this alien disaster.

"maybe!"

Teresa's right hand pinched her hair subconsciously.

She was thinking again.

After combining the relevant information collected by Mithril, the result she obtained was almost the same as the result obtained in that meeting.

However, a weird but unclear feeling lingered in Teresa's heart and couldn't wave it away.

"Captain, is there anything wrong?" Richard noticed the strangeness of Teresa.

"No. No. Continue to maintain first level combat readiness!"

"Yes!"

Then, Teresa looked back at Lei Mingkai.

"Knight. Are you really not allowing Mira to take refuge here?"

Teresa was a little surprised that Lei Mingkai didn't let Mira come to take refuge here.

Because, in Theresa’s impression, Merida Island, which is in a state of war preparation at this moment, is more worthy of peace of mind than a peaceful city.

"No. Mira just stayed over there like this. What's more, beside Mira, I have arranged strong enough to protect her." Lei Mingkai shook his head, saying that he didn't need to worry about Mi Pull the safety.

"Is that lion? In Uurz7's report, he mentioned that when he rushed to the fighting area, the attacker had been cleared by a huge steel lion. Knight, it seems that you still have a lot of secrets hidden. !"

Teresa's gaze gradually showed a sense of inquiry.

Because of the arrangement to invite the king into the urn and the subsequent transaction processing, Teresa did not have time to ask Lei Mingkai about the White Cat Zero becoming a steel lion and killing the Quartet.Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, Teresa seized it all at once.

"I said it was a big lion named Wild Lion. Do you believe it?"

Lei Mingkai smiled, half joking, half earnestly saying a name.

Teresa, who was obviously suspicious, stared at Lei Mingkai's eyes quietly.

"Really? Then, when will I meet this lion?"

"Is it curiosity as a whisperer?"

Lei Mingkai asked rhetorically.

There was a hint of cunning in Teresa's eyes.

"Yes, or not. Knight, do you agree?"

As soon as this question was spoken, Leiming Kay met Richard's gaze.

It was a pair of cold eyes that looked like an old father worried that his daughter would be abducted by a stranger.

And the appearance of this gaze immediately put Lei Mingkai under great pressure.

"Please! I'm not the naive Sagara Sosuke. Why are you staring at me."

Lei Mingkai's eyelids jumped wildly, then he coughed twice, trying to divert the problem.

"Ahem. Captain. This is not the time to ask this question."

Without waiting for Teresa to speak, Richard immediately followed Lei Mingkai's rhythm and added another leader in diverting Teresa's attention.

"Yes. Captain. It is now in the first level of combat readiness. As the commander of the Son of Danu, you must be prepared at all times, Captain."

"Really?" Teresa tilted her head. After wandering between Richard and Lei Mingkai, she gave up the idea of ​​going further.

"Forget it. Anyway, there is still a chance later."

This episode did not cause any impact, and when this episode happened, the big killers launched by various countries had broken through the atmosphere and flew toward the final orbit that is more distant and particularly related to the fate of the earth. .

Time gradually passed.

As the decisive moment got closer, everyone's hearts were raised in unison.

"There are still thirty seconds before the scheduled impact coordinates."

Mithril's monitoring system is synchronized with the system used by UN.

Lei Mingkai didn't know how much Mithril spent on this, but from the current effect, it was indeed very convenient.

"coming!"

Teresa whispered.

The animation on the main screen is calculated in real time.

In conjunction with CIC's field report data, it is indeed clear at a glance what is happening in the void overhead.

"There are still ten seconds before the impact!"

CIC reports again.

"ten!"

"nine!"

"Eight!"

"Seven····"

When the countdown reached seven, CIC's voice suddenly went dumb.

"Wait! It's gone!"

"What? What is missing!"

Teresa abruptly got up from her chair and asked quickly.

"Small...asteroids, and... and the missile group are gone!!" CIC stared at the screen in front of him in a daze.

A few seconds ago, there were at least hundreds of signal points on this screen representing the strongest killer of humanity today.

But now, the screen full of densely packed signal points has become blank.

"Detonated ahead of time?"

Richard frowned and proposed a hypothesis, but before others could verify the hypothesis, Richard himself overthrew it.

"No! If it is detonated, even if you don't use equipment, you can see the light from the explosion here on Earth. This is hundreds of big killers! If it is released directly in the atmosphere, it will destroy a country. ."

"What's the reason? Put the previously monitored data on the screen."

Teresa thought of a possibility, but similar to Richard, after she saw the monitoring data on the screen, the possibility she thought of suddenly went bankrupt.In the end, Teresa sighed helplessly, unable to come to the conclusion.

"What happened in the starry sky above us?"

"At least, the asteroid should have disappeared. Although we don't know what happened in it, humans seem to have escaped." Richard pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion that was good news. .

"Perhaps it is!"

But Lei Mingkai, who was on the side, frowned slightly.

There is nothing in this world that appears for no reason and disappears for no reason.Even the asteroid floating in that deserted void.

Suddenly, Lei Mingkai raised his head feelingly and looked at the ceiling of the bridge.His eyes seemed to penetrate the ceiling, looking towards the sky on Merida Island.

At the same time, the white cat Zero who had been guarding Mira also raised his head, glanced in the direction where Merida Island was, then retracted his gaze, yawned, and then turned over and continued to sleep with his eyes closed. .

"Take care of your own business! Kay!"

Suddenly, a sirens tore the air on the bridge.

"Alarm! Alarm! Alarm! An unidentified high-speed object is quickly entering the sky over Merida Island!! Very fast!! Very fast!! Captain! Please issue an emergency evacuation order immediately!!"

"What?" Teresa, who had just breathed a sigh of relief over the news of the asteroid, froze, and immediately ordered decisively.

"Notify everyone to evacuate urgently!! Hurry!!"

"What happened?" Teresa, who gave the emergency evacuation order, frowned deeply.

Asteroids that suddenly disappeared, and unknown high-speed objects that suddenly appeared over Merida Island.

Between these two, it seems...

At this moment, Teresa suddenly realized that Lei Mingkai did not intend to take refuge, but instead seemed to intend to leave the Son of Danu and walk out of the bunker.

"Knight, you?!"

"I'll go out. I have something to confirm."

"No! It's too dangerous outside now! If you go out, you might..."

Before Teresa finished speaking, CIC, who had just stood up and was about to go for evacuation, froze again.

"Captain! There is an unknown communication request to access!"

"Connect." There was a flash of light in Theresa's eyes, and she decisively ordered.

Amid the harsh sirens, a weird laugh suddenly came from the flashing screen.

"Oh heh heh! Honorable Lord Knight! Where are you? Lloyd Asprinde, following Her Majesty’s orders, will send you the exclusive mecha!"
