"Yes, Captain. We are now at level one combat readiness. As the commander of the Sons of Danu, Captain, you must be prepared at all times."

"Really?" Teresa tilted her head, and after her eyes wandered between Richard and Remingkai, she gave up the idea of ​​further investigation.

"Forget it. Anyway, there will still be a chance later."

This episode did not have any impact. Moreover, when this episode occurred, the killer weapons launched by various countries had already broken through the atmosphere and were flying towards the final orbit circle that was more distant and particularly related to the earth's upcoming fate.

.

Time passes gradually.

As we got closer to that decisive moment, everyone's hearts suddenly started to rise.

"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 thought Mithril put into it, but judging from the current effect, it was indeed very convenient.

"Coming!"

Teresa whispered.

What is played on the main screen is an animated image calculated in real time.

Combined with CIC's on-site report data, it is indeed clear what happened in the void above our heads.

"Ten seconds until impact!"

cic reports again.

"ten!"

"Nine!"

"eight!"

"seven"

When the countdown reached seven, Cic's voice suddenly became hoarse.

"Wait! It's gone!"

"What? What's missing!"

Teresa suddenly stood up from her chair and asked quickly.

"The small asteroid and the missile group are all gone!!" Cic stared blankly at the screen in front of him.

A few seconds ago, there were at least hundreds of signal points on this screen representing mankind's most powerful killer weapon today.

But now, the screen filled with dense signal points has become blank.

"Detonated in advance?"

Richard frowned and came up with a hypothesis, but before anyone else could verify the hypothesis, Richard overturned it himself.

"No! If it is detonated, even without the use of equipment, the light from the explosion can be seen here on the earth. These are hundreds of deadly weapons! If they are released directly in the atmosphere, they will destroy a country.

."

"Then 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 was unable to come up with a result.

He sighed helplessly.

"What's happening in the starry sky above us?"

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

.

"Maybe!"

But Lei Mingkai, who was standing aside, frowned slightly.

There is nothing in this world that appears and disappears for no reason. Not even asteroids floating in that desolate void.

Suddenly, Lei Mingkai raised his head thoughtfully and looked at the ceiling of the bridge. His gaze seemed to penetrate the ceiling and look at the sky on Merida Island.

At the same time, the white cat Zero who had been guarding Mira also raised his head, glanced at the direction of Merida Island, then withdrew his gaze, yawned, and then turned over and continued to close his eyes to sleep.

.

"Handle your own affairs by yourself! Kai!"

Suddenly, an alarm ripped through the air on the bridge.

"Alert! Alert! Alert! An unknown high-speed object is found rapidly entering the sky above Merida Island!! Very fast! Very fast!! Captain! Please issue an emergency evacuation order immediately!!"

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

"Notify everyone of emergency evacuation!! Hurry!!"

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

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

Between the two, it seems

At this moment, Teresa suddenly realized that Lei Mingkai had no intention of taking refuge. Instead, he seemed to be preparing to leave the Sons of Danu and walk out of the bunker.

"Knight, you?!"

"I'm going out. I have something to confirm."

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

Before Teresa could finish speaking, Cic, who had just stood up and was about to take refuge, froze again.

"Captain! There is an unknown communication requesting access!"

"Put it through." Theresa's eyes flashed and she ordered decisively.

Amidst the piercing sirens, a strange laughter suddenly came from the flashing screen.
