Meteor from the sky
Chapter 1390 Meteor from the sky
"In recent days, the highly-watched Junius 7 has been dragged into the flames of war again. A group of armed men of unknown origin not only attacked the PLANT civilian fleet that responded to Lacus Clyne's call to lead the stranded PLANT citizens home, but also engaged in a fierce battle with the ZAFT fleet that was escorting the fleet."
"During the battle, the First Fleet of the Solar Energy Construction Alliance, which was assigned by the East Asian Republic to protect Lacus Clyne on her way to Junius 7, also joined the battle and defeated the conspiracy of the militants with an overwhelming victory."
"But, shockingly, this group of militants did not repent and surrender in the face of defeat. Instead, they took a risk and used some technology to propel Junius 7 again, allowing the wreckage of Junius 7, which carried the lives of more than PLANT citizens, to fly towards the space region where PLANT is located."
"ZAFT and PLANT have entered a state of emergency and have requested the Solar Energy Construction Alliance to assist in handling this situation. Our reporters will continue to track the subsequent developments. Please pay attention and watch!"
"Finally, due to the impact of Junius 7's movement toward PLANT, the debris belt between the two was affected by Junius 7's movement, fell from the high orbit, and was captured by the Earth's gravity. In the next few days, there will be a large number of spectacular meteor showers in the sky of the southern hemisphere."
"But please rest assured, these meteor showers caused by Junius 7 will not have any impact on the ground..."
As the world's attention was once again drawn to the movement of Junius 7, several meteor showers swept across the sky over South Africa.
However, due to the impact of the radiation cloud caused by the previous high-altitude nuclear explosion, many areas affected by the radiation have been evacuated on a large scale. As a result, not many people can notice it, or have the leisure to pay attention to the magnificent scene of these spectacular meteor showers streaking across the sky.
Therefore, while the world was attracted by Junius 7, the radiation cloud hovering over South Africa quietly dissipated and disappeared from the sky without a sound.
With the disappearance of the radiation cloud, the radiation alarm at Victoria Airport, which had been on high alert since the high-altitude nuclear explosion, suddenly calmed down and lost its previous terrifying screaming sound.
“It turned out to be such a wonderful scene.”
Standing on the rooftop of the command building of Victoria Airport, Cheng Yi took off his protective suit with great effort and bathed in the white moonlight again.
"Special Envoy Cheng, we haven't conducted a thorough inspection yet! If you do this, it will make it very difficult for others."
He Ming, who was standing nearby, shook his head helplessly.
Perhaps because they had been trapped in an underground shelter under the radiation cloud for several days, after learning that the radiation in the area around Victoria Airport would be properly handled, the special envoy did not hesitate to drag He Ming back to the ground and watch with his own eyes the entire process of the dissipation of the radiation cloud that was hovering in the sky.
"No. That's not necessary. I believe in General He, and I also believe in our new human friends."
Cheng Yi laughed, then looked at the silver figure standing next to He Ming with a friendly smile.
She was a little girl who fell from the sky with the arrival of the meteor shower. She looked only about seven or eight years old, but her whole body was silver-white, and her skin, which was completely different from that of humans, foreshadowed her amazing origin.
However, her face was somewhat similar to He Ming's, and her eyes that were glowing with golden light made Cheng Yi look at her a few more times.
When he turned his gaze to He Ming, he couldn't help but have some doubts.
"I am the offspring assigned by my mother's clan to follow Master He Ming. According to human ethics, I am Master He Ming's adopted daughter. Therefore, in order to allow humans to accept our existence in a short period of time, we decided to create this body based on Master He Ming's appearance."
The silver-white girl seemed to see through Cheng Yi's thoughts and opened her mouth to answer him.
"You...you can speak our language?"
Cheng Yi was stunned and surprised to find that the language used by the silver-white girl was actually Chinese.
"This is a necessary skill to follow Lord He Ming. There is no need to be surprised. Special Envoy Cheng Yi." The silver-white girl nodded, then looked up at He Ming.
"Master He Ming, please give me a name. This will make it easier for me to communicate with other humans."
"This will probably be a key moment engraved in human history."
Cheng Yi heard it and said jokingly.
"Special Envoy, you are too serious."
He Ming shook his head helplessly.
According to this world, it is indeed a scene worthy of being recorded in history.
But for He Ming, this has happened several times.
"Iris. This is a name derived from your ELS name. As for the last name, it's up to you!"
"Okay! Elise Ho. It's decided."
The silver-white girl, or the ELS descendant who got a new name, Iris, made her decision decisively, which also surprised He Ming.
"Whatever! You like it! Also, has the radiation in this area been dealt with?"
He Ming no longer dwelled on the title, but turned the conversation back to the main topic.
"Yes. I have already disposed of most of the remaining radiation near this facility through various sub-bodies. The last remaining radiation concentration areas will be disposed of in the next few days."
Elise said affirmatively.
"Of course. Don't worry! The sub-body in the universe still firmly controls the wreckage of Junius 7. The thrusters driven by high-energy beams are still under our control and can be shut down at any time."
"Very good! Maintain the current status. Let those people continue their performance before reaching the Yakin Duwei Line!"
He Ming nodded, reached out and touched Iris's little head, but unexpectedly found that the touch was surprisingly good, and there was no cold and hard metallic feeling.
Watching the question and answer process between He Ming and Iris, Cheng Yi couldn't help but reveal a trace of emotion.
"General He, you said you only know how to fight and kill. But this move of yours is really vicious! I'm afraid that Blue Cosmos and World Tree will never know that Junius 7, which they have placed high hopes on twice and can push most of humanity into hell, is actually controlled by you."
"Haha. It just happened to be a coincidence! If it weren't for Iris, I'm afraid I would have to use the highest authority to recreate the scene at the end of the last war - using the solar power generation system as a backing, assisted by many Iron Man mobile suits, to reenact the scene of destroying the colony satellite."
