Selene lowered her gaze and looked at the slightly rippling black tea in her cup. She could not help but recall the changes that happened when the X1 crack suddenly mutated.
The sound that suddenly came from the X1 crack.
The monster that suddenly rushed out of the X1 crack.
And the various sensors in the space station that almost malfunctioned at the same time.
"Dr. Selene. Do you remember anything? "
Lacus raised her head and looked in the direction of the conference room.
There, Ray Mingkai was announcing the existence of the BETA.
It was not hard to imagine how Talia and the others would react when they found out that the monster that had been chasing them was a monster from another dimension.
But compared to Talia and the others, Dr. Selene, who had been studying the X1 crack, was calm. No, it should be said that she was like a flame hidden under the snow, waiting for the moment to completely melt the snow.
"Miss Audrey."
Selene took a slow breath and sorted out her emotions before continuing.
"After you and that knight went missing in the battle of Yakin Duwei, we, the D.S.S.D, were entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the neutral countries led by Skannaveya, the Earth Alliance, and Zaft to conduct research on the X1 rift as quickly as possible. Not long after the research began, Lord Siena came to D.S.S.D space station as an official envoy of Scandinavia. "
Speaking of Siena, Selene's speed of speech subconsciously slowed down while she observed the changes in Lacus' expression.
However, Lacus nodded slightly and motioned for Selene to continue.
"At that time, after seeing the various preparations that D.S.S.D had done for the X1 crack, Lord Siena specially called me and the director to the side."
Lacus bit her lips slightly. She seemed to understand why her father, Siena, would specially call the director of D.S.S.D and Dr. Selene aside.
But Lacus's rationality did not think that Siena would do such a risky thing.
"After Lord Siena watched the video of SS Eternity's bridge, she believed that you and the Knight could return to your hometown."
"Video of SS Eternity's bridge?!"
Lacus was stunned. She remembered the changes that happened to her when the Longfang Lion destroyed the Genesis with its full power.
The sudden disappearance of a living human in front of their eyes must have scared the hell out of everyone on the SS Eternity, right?
"Yes. That video was then deleted. The relevant personnel were also separated for various reasons and placed in various places in Scandinavia to guard this secret and become ordinary people. "
"Is that so? I didn't expect that everyone would suffer so much because of my momentary willfulness. I'm sorry! "
Lacus sighed faintly.
Even if Selene did not elaborate on the details, Lux, who was born as the heir of a powerful political family and had traveled among various civilizations as an ambassador of peace in the universe, naturally understood the price that the relevant personnel had to pay.
"No. Perhaps it was a trial. Perhaps it was more of a blessing.
"Blessing?!"
Lacus' was confused.
"Yes. Not long after our D.S.S.D. began our research on the X1 rift, something strange seemed to have happened all over Earth. Disasters caused by unknown causes began to appear on land and in the sea. "
As Selene spoke, she pressed on her wristwatch and showed Lacus the photos that were taken by humans during the disaster.
"In the beginning, the various countries seemed to treat these unknown disasters as a chain reaction caused by the movement of plates."
Following Selene's narration, the distorted timeline after the Battle of Yajin Duwei slowly unfolded in front of Lacus' eyes.
In the first month after the Battle of Yajin Duwei, an unknown giant creature appeared in the center of the Pacific Ocean and encountered a fishing fleet. The fishing fleet was almost completely destroyed, and only a few fishermen escaped death. They were stranded on a deserted island for several months before they were rescued.
Almost at the same time, a meteorite fell to the east of the Atlantic Ocean.
But strangely, before the meteorite fell, the asteroid monitoring radar network around Earth did not detect any traces of the meteorite.
Under the shroud of such a mystery, time passed quickly and reached a critical moment two years later.
On this day, D.S.S.S.D. finally made a breakthrough in the new technology of how to establish real-time contact with the drone that had advanced into the X1 rift.
On this day, the drone equipped with the new technology appeared again and broke into the X1 rift.
On this day, under the watchful eyes of many of D.S.S.D.'s top technicians, the drone that entered the X1 rift successfully established real-time contact with the space station behind it.
On this day, an unfamiliar audio was captured by the drone and sent back to the space station.
On this day, D.S.S.D.'s space station, which might have received a greeting from an alien civilization for the first time, was suddenly attacked by a monster and had no choice but to send out a distress signal.
What happened next was that after the people were taken in by the Minerva, they fled all the way to the Throne of Command.
"Audio? Dr. Selene, can I take a look at it? "
Lacus pondered for a moment, as if digesting the many things that Dr. Selene said, before asking to see the unfamiliar and mysterious audio.
"Mhmm. Sure. In fact, we did a preliminary analysis the moment we obtained this audio. The results of the analysis show that this is a sound wave similar to the call of a whale. "
Selene pressed her wristwatch again. While playing the unfamiliar and mysterious audio, she also turned on the external function.
"The sound of a whale?"
When she was young, the curious Lacus had once asked Siena to find a lot of information about the sound of whales.
The reason wasn't the young Lacus's curiosity about the ocean.
It was caused by the fossil of a winged whale that was brought back from Jupiter by George, the first regulator in human history.
She listened to the sound of whales that she had heard when she was young.
In front of her was the undulating curve that indicated the height of the sound wave.
Lacus's brows gradually furrowed.
A strange feeling crept into Lacus's heart.
For some reason, this audio that sounded like the sound of a whale made Lacus feel an indescribable strangeness.
"Dr. Selene. Maybe you can use the equipment here to conduct a new round of analysis. "
When Lacus lifted her gaze, she said something that made Selene feel both astonished and pleasantly surprised.
"Miss … Miss, you're saying that I can use the equipment here?"
"Mhmm. I'll talk to Kai about the details. Prepare the piece for Dr. Selene first! "
Lacus nodded as a promise before asking, "What's the matter?
"Before the accident, did Father come to the space station?"
"No. It seems that because he agreed with Miss Klia to help the refugees stranded at the border of Scandinavia, he didn't come to the space station to participate in this experiment according to the original plan. "
"Is that so? I got it! Also, I hope that Dr. Selene can keep our meeting a secret. "
To this, Selene gladly accepted.
"Yes. Miss Audrey. "
Lacus's side made good progress, but Ray Mingkai's side seemed to be in a stalemate.
Talia closed her eyes and silently rubbed the bridge of her nose, trying to relieve the pressure that had accumulated until now.
The trio's expressions were even more different.
Real Flying Bird frowned deeply and looked at the image on the screen for a long time without saying a word.
Luna Maria looked confused and secretly looked left and right, trying to get an explanation from her partner.
Unfortunately, there was no result.
Whether it was Real Flying Bird or Ray Za Barer, both of them were shocked by what Lei Mingkai had told them.
Traveling through the world.
This was something that should only exist in sci-fi novels, movies, and even TV dramas, but it actually happened to them.
How could they react to this and calmly accept it?
Especially since the rescue of the D.S.S.D space station, under the pursuit of the BETA, the Minerva, which only cared about escaping for its life, had accomplished the feat that should have been recorded in the annals of history. They had no idea how the Minerva completed the entire process.
"Captain. Can we contact the Zaft headquarters? "
Ray took a deep breath and looked at Talia.
On the Minerva, other than Talia, only Ray could directly contact the Zaft headquarters, no, it should be said that the man standing at the top of PLANT's power.
Hearing this, Talia opened her eyes, looked at Ray, and slowly shook her head.
"No. At first, I thought Minerva's communication was destroyed in the battle, but after I asked Knight K to borrow the high-power communication system of this satellite fortress to try to contact the headquarters, I still encountered the same situation. "
Talia glanced at the only three remaining MS pilots on the Minerva.
"Now, we have to face the fact that we have lost contact with the headquarters and even PLANT."
"Captain. In other words, it is very likely that we really traveled through the world unknowingly? "
Real Flying Bird raised her gaze and glanced at Ray Mingkai, who was standing in front of the big screen and watching the exchange of the people on the Minerva, and expressed her thoughts.
"Real, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Rei had just opened his mouth to speak when he was interrupted by Talia.
"Okay. Ray. We do have to face the fact. It is very likely that we have completed this feat. "
While speaking, Talia looked at Ray Mingkai and stared at the white gold-rimmed mask on Ray Mingkai's face for a long time.
"Of course. If Knight K can provide more evidence to prove this hypothesis, we will be very grateful. "
Ray Mingkai nodded slightly. Naturally, he would not refuse this request.
The evidence had been prepared from the beginning.
"Sharon. Take it out! "
"Yes. Your Highness. "
The stream of light appeared from top to bottom, and a familiar yet unfamiliar map of Earth was displayed in front of Talia, Real Flying Bird, Luna Maria, and Ray.
"Everyone, this is the map of the territory of the Holy Britannia Empire. Of course. This is the map before the Ultra Disaster. Now, the Holy Britannia Empire's territory is only left with the American mainland and the satellite fortress that you are in. The reason is the same as everyone. "
"The reason for this is a battle that took place before the Super Calamity. A battle that may be called a battle between mortals and gods. "
On the map was the huge figure of the Winged God, who was like a god descending.
