Only Aprasar was too silent, whereas normally she should have been the most lively one in the band.
"Cheer up, Aprasar, this is just the beginning. We will reach a higher stage next!"
"lotus……"
The talking Lian was her first companion, the first friend she had met since she came to Earth.
Lian was originally the lead singer of another band, a country band that was slightly famous in her hometown, but as some of the members went to college and others had to work, the band disbanded, leaving only the two of them.
But this also took the opportunity to bring Aprasal and Lian to Tokyo. Here, they created a new band, 'Virgo'.
The band's name was given by Aprasar, and Lian didn't think it had any special meaning. The zodiac, the constellations, little girls just liked these. Since Aprasar liked it, Lian didn't mind.
After that, more partners joined one after another, and the band unexpectedly became popular, signed by a company, and became famous because of traffic, and has continued to this day. Although there was a dream of holding a concert in Budokan in the past, it was just a dream. I believe that every band has such a dream.
I didn't expect that the dream would come true so soon. Lian still felt like he was dreaming. He glanced at the sky outside the window. The starry sky was bright, just like the Avenue of Stars they were walking on.
"Aprasar, look, the stars in the sky are so bright today, so beautiful!"
Aprasar looked up at the starry sky outside the window and was stunned.
Lian was just sighing casually at first, but she discovered that there was a particularly bright star in the sky.
"I don't know what star that is." Lian said unintentionally. He didn't expect to get an answer. After all, astronomy was too profound for these young people who had not even finished high school. But he didn't expect to hear the answer.
"That's Virgo."
"Virgo?" Lian was stunned for a moment, making sure the girl was not joking, "That's the name of our band. Is it a star?"
Given Yi Lian's level of education, it was already quite remarkable that he could name the stars and planets.
"That's not a star, nor a galaxy. It's a star cluster made up of many galaxies."
Virgo is not a galaxy, but because of human perspective, many galaxies overlap in the same perspective and are included in it. After all, from a visual point of view, it is just a point of light.
Its local galaxy cluster is very far away, and humans have codenamed it M87 (one number different from Ott's Star). It is located outside the distant Milky Way and belongs to the extragalactic nebula, more than 250 million light-years away from the Earth. The closest star system is the star system codenamed Spica, which is only light-years away from the Earth.
Of course, stars cannot compare with star clusters, but because the distance is close enough, Spica is the brightest star in Virgo when viewed from Earth.
"Spica is a binary star system orbiting two stars. A disaster occurred there, and the light is the afterglow of a fallen star."
"Falling stars?" Looking at Aprasar who was muttering to himself, Lian didn't know what her casual words made her think of.
Aprasar was like this sometimes. She was right beside him, but he seemed so far away that he could not reach him. This feeling was not good. Lian felt distressed, as if she would never be able to catch up with him.
When Lian came to her senses, she found that he was pulling Aprasar's sleeve. The girl looked at him strangely.
"Ah, sorry. If you're not careful..." Lian quickly let go, and the atmosphere became a little tense. Fortunately, the teammates around him didn't seem to notice. "Um, what disaster are you talking about?"
"Nothing. That was over two hundred years ago."
Apsalar said something incomprehensible, Lian couldn't respond and didn't know what to say.
The girl withdrew her gaze and stopped talking. In the blink of an eye, more than two hundred years had passed, and she recalled the unpleasant things again.
This is the distance of the universe.
Except for the curvature folding of space, or traveling through different dimensions, the speed of light is already the fastest speed in the universe. The light came to the earth with the information of the disaster, but more than two hundred years have passed.
Two hundred years is not a short time. In the scale of the universe, it is often millions or tens of millions of years. Two hundred years is just a blink of an eye. In the past, Apsalar had long been accustomed to the scale of the universe.
But now, she found herself assimilated by the earth, and she fell in love with it. Day and night, every minute and every second was valuable time. People's joys and sorrows, ups and downs, anger and sorrow, all experienced in one day and night.
"Lian, tell me, what should I do if one day I turn into a demon?"
"Demon? You mean a goblin? Then I guess all men will be captured by you."
"No, I mean the demon that destroyed the world."
"Then I will destroy the world with you. Don't underestimate me because I am weak. Give me a hammer and I can tear down the wall."
"I was serious."
Lian didn't understand why the girl was so serious when it was just a joke. So he thought about it.
"Then I will stop you. I will do whatever I can to stop you."
He felt that this was the answer the girl wanted. As expected, Apsalar smiled happily.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Lian."
In the TAC team's command room, although it was already night, the group of people did not rest.
The observatory sent a message that the cosmic radiation increased dramatically in a short period of time, which attracted the attention of the TAC team.
"What happened?" Captain Long rushed over from home after receiving the call.
"The energy of the universe is changing dramatically, and another galaxy has fallen." Konno said with some emotion.
"In which direction?"
"It was near Virgo. The catastrophe occurred in Virgo's first-magnitude bright star, Spica."
"Spica? It's very close to the Earth. Will it have any impact on the Earth?"
"We are indeed very close. From an astronomical perspective, we are neighbors. But this neighbor is at least more than 200 light years away. We are just watching fireworks, and it has nothing to do with the Earth."
Even if there were meteorites that were scattered in the universe and entered the solar system, it would be thousands of years later. No matter how violent the explosion was, the speed of the scattered fragments would not exceed one tenth of the speed of light, so it is completely unnecessary for humans today to consider it.
Moreover, the probability of a flying meteorite hitting the earth is much lower than the possibility of a bullet fired from the moon hitting a grain of sand in the Sahara Desert on Earth without considering the range and loss.
"Since it is confirmed that it has nothing to do with the Earth, let's disband and go to rest."
After Captain Long's order, everyone left the command room. Beidou was also walking out, but he stopped because he found that Nan Xizi was still sitting there.
"What's wrong, Yuko?"
"I was thinking, if Spica is also a star system with life, how desperate it would be. Who can escape such a catastrophe? Did the Kingdom of Light lend them a helping hand?"
Beidou sat down next to her. There was no one else in the command room at this time.
"Yuko, you have to know that Ultraman is not a god. Protecting what you can see is already the best you can do."
Moreover, that was more than 200 years ago. It is superficial and ridiculous for modern people to mourn for people in the Edo period. Not to mention another star system far away from the earth.
"I know, I'm not blaming anyone."
She was just a little sad.
Galaxy-level natural disasters happen every moment in the universe. This is commonplace for the universe. Life is too insignificant, born and dead in the morning, even for civilization. All they can do is to protect themselves and protect humanity, which is already a very difficult thing.
It is indeed foolish to place compassion hundreds of light years away.
The observatory is still sending back data, and the amount of cosmic ray radiation is still increasing. This process will last for several days or even weeks. In this extremely short period of time, the star will release radiation equivalent to the total energy released in the past billions of years, bright enough to illuminate several surrounding star systems.
In the manor, Ling also withdrew her gaze from the sky. She did not have the detection equipment of the TAC team, but she could still sense the destruction of galaxies in the universe.
It was indeed a sad thing that the whole family of neighbors in the next block were killed in a gas explosion, but the knife-wielding gangster in her own house had not left yet, so she was in no mood to sympathize.
Nexus's medals have been unlocked. Currently, she has unlocked 3 medals, namely Jack, Aguru and Nexus.
During the battle, there are only three medals that can be bound to Gaia's Light, and now they are full. For more, you can only choose to replace the existing medals. So there is no need to unlock them just to top up the numbers.
Aguru has the ability to allow her to evolve to V2 or even the Supreme Form, and Nexus can open the Meta Field, both are very useful, and Ling will not replace them unless necessary.
The only thing that can be replaced is the Jack Medal, but this medal is also very powerful. The Spesium Ray, the Eight-Point Light Wheel, and the Ultra Bracelet can all play a very strong role in battle.
Therefore, the next medal must be an ability that she urgently needs. Otherwise, even if it is unlocked, it will be meaningless except that Ultra Phantom can shake an extra comrade, and it will just take up space in her pocket.
Ling also thought for a moment and decided on the next medal to unlock.
Maybe it is not used often, but the healing ability is indeed very useful sometimes. Just like when you form a group in a game, you always have to recruit a priest. I have heard from Beidou before that the Space Guard has a Silver Crusaders, a medical team. The leader of the Silver Crusaders is Mother Ultra, who is particularly good at healing various injuries and can even bring the Giant of Light back to life.
【Mother of Ultra Medal
Energy reserve: 0/230 (recovery of 0.002 per second, temporarily blocked)
Sealed, unlocking degree: 36/240 (15%)]
Ling also remembered that the unlocking value required for Mother of Ultra was 200 at first, and now after unlocking Aguru and Nexus, it has increased to 240. Every time one is unlocked, the unlocking value of the next medal will increase by 20.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s just a matter of destroying one more super beast.
The current unblocking rate is already 15%.
The 36 points of unlocking value, part of which was the extra points after unblocking Nexus, and the quantum super beast that was killed not long ago gave her a full 30 points, which shows how terrifying the quantum super beast is.
Maybe, she can really consider unlocking the golden medal in the future.
Chapter 147 Tange Sakura
"Reiya, Tomoyo, I can't go to the picnic tomorrow, wuwuwuwu~~"
Sakura's words sounded pitiful, but her actions were not pitiful. She ate the dessert bite by bite until her mouth was full.
"So you're going to eat all the food for tomorrow's picnic now?"
"But it's so delicious, it tastes like my mother's."
That's not wrong, because the dessert was indeed made by Nadeshiko.
In early winter, it is a luxury to be able to sunbathe without having to go to the southern hemisphere for vacation. My originally cold body was warmed up by the sun. Sakura is afraid of cold, so she loves the warm sunshine even more.
Lingye's family has a summer garden. No matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, day or night, it is always a summer afternoon there.
This was even more incredible than having an ancient castle in her house, but Sakura had already determined that the other party was a real magical girl, so no matter what strange things there were, she would not find it strange.
Is there anything better than stepping into a warm afternoon on a winter's day and enjoying a casual dessert?
No, this is blissful heaven.
"You suddenly said we can't go on a picnic tomorrow. Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, right." Tomoyo reminded Sakura of what she was about to say, "I'm going to Sanmu Company tomorrow. They said the company has arranged a mentor for singing training."
"That's good."
Tomoyo thought that being able to sing was a wonderful thing. But Sakura didn't think so. She had been filming a TV show all day and had made an appointment with her friends to go out together tomorrow. She was mentally and materially prepared for the outing, but she didn't expect to receive such bad news from her agent, Ms. Oshige.
"How about we go together tomorrow?"
"Eh? Chise, when you said go together, did you mean go to the company together?"
"Yeah, it was originally a concert for the three of us."
That's true. Lingya and Tomoyo are not contracted artists of Sanmu Entertainment, so there is no notice of rehearsal for the time being, and Sanmu doesn't dare to make arrangements on its own. But since they are going to be on stage together, they will definitely have to rehearse and adjust afterwards.
"Reiya, is this okay?"
