|
3 3 301 DialogEnable The city is about to sink, and this is when the storm stops.
|
|
4 4 301 You look out, and the city is gone. The horizon reverts to a flat plane, the top of the six spires now tiny dots, barely noticeable. Even the tallest main city is fully submerged, save for the roof of the observatory.
|
|
5 5 301 The wind howls, and the waves rumble.
|
|
6 6 301 With one hand on her banner spear, Vera half-kneels, half-sits on the floor.
|
|
7 7 301 She was going to overpower Lamia and subdue her, whatever it took to drag her back to the control panel, so she could force her to disable the submergence command.
|
|
8 8 301 But Lamia still ran away in the end.
|
|
9 9 301 All Vera feels now is tiredness and frustration.
|
|
10 10 301 How strange she was willing to go this far, she thinks to herself. Uncharacteristically, she does not have an answer immediately. This is very unlike her—she has not been this apprehensive for a long time.
|
|
11 11 301 She has protected her target and retrieved the objective. She did not need to spend the extra effort in this place, and yet.
|
|
12 12 301 What is done is done. She is too proud to need an explanation for her actions.
|
|
13 13 301 A conqueror does not justify herself. Everything is instinctual.
|
|
14 14 301 Suddenly, the loud whirring sound of engines appears in the distant sky.
|
|
15 15 301 Struggling, Vera looks up and finds a tiny black dot approaching—a transport craft, but not one of Kurono's.
|
|
16 16 301 It is a Babylonia transport craft, with the logo of Gray Raven on its wings.

22 22 301 RImgBg1Shake Another quake from beneath her feet.
|
|
23 23 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Just like the first time when the city started sinking, this one is also earth-shattering.
|
|
24 24 503 10021
|
|
25 25 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Before Vera can react—before she can even register what is happening—the city begins to rise at a high speed. Covered in water, it baths in the reflection of the sun.
|
|
26 26 301 For a second, it no longer is a graveyard.
|
|
27 27 301 The ocean has cleansed it of its malady. Underneath the sun now stands the lighthouse of human civilization from eons past.
|
|
28 28 301 Vera closes her eyes.
|
|
29 29 301 She recalls a way to measure time she once heard.
|
|
30 30 301 The universe is 13.8 billion years old. If you compress this period of time into 12 months, then the history of humankind begins on the last night of the year.
|
|
31 31 301 On that last night, which is 3.5 million years ago, the first hominin stood up, and instead of looking at the earth, it looked to the stars.
|
|
32 32 301 It takes 60 seconds from humans understanding seasons by observing the stars to the first astronaut planting his flag on the moon.
|
|
33 33 301 AniZhuanchangBegin And humankind's current obstacle, the Punishing Virus, is but a blip in the grand scheme of things.

36 36 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Showered in sunlight, Vera walks up, her eyes opened wide, looking directly at the sun.
|
|
37 37 301 She can almost see the woman's figure against the glare of the sun. She reaches out a hand.
|
|
38 38 301 She can almost touch it, the world a second in the future.
|
|
39 39 301 Like the astronaut on Apollo 11 planting his flag on the moon, Vera plants her banner spear by her side.
|
|
40 40 301 It is an act of ancient, primal instinct, claiming her territory.
|
|
41 41 301 When their first ship entered orbit, they declared earth theirs.
|
|
42 42 301 When their flag was planted on the moon, they declared the moon theirs.
|
|
43 43 301 Humans will not stop conquering.
|
|
44 44 301 Centuries after humans conquered the moon, those from Babylonia...
|
|
45 45 301 AniZhuanchangBegin ...They have "conquered" earth again.

48 48 304 AniZhuanchangEnd One more thing. This is just my view and some guesses. I didn't want to leave it in this recording at first. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
49 49 304 But a good, educated guess is no less valuable than a clear conclusion. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
50 50 304 Unfortunately, I don't have time to prove its validity. So I'll leave it to you, seekers of tomorrow. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
51 51 304 Maybe this will help your work. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
52 52 304 I've been thinking about the "logic" behind the Punishing Virus' appearance. I doubt the zero-point energy itself could create the virus. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
53 53 304 There are no laws of physics that support this emergence. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
54 54 304 There is a logic to every species and their place in the natural order. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
55 55 304 Sheep keep the amount of grass in check. Predators keep the number of sheep in check. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
56 56 304 What about the Punishing Virus? What role does it play in this order? ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
57 57 304 As far as we can tell, the zero-point energy is a crucial condition for the Punishing Virus' existence. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
58 58 304 But, personally, I prefer the theory that zero-point energy opened a pathway instead of creating the virus. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1 1
|
|
59 59 304 The zero-point reactor is a product of extremely complicated, advanced physics and mathematics. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
60 60 304 On the other hand, the more advanced the technology is, the more susceptible it is to the Punishing Virus. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
61 61 304 That is to say, a primitive civilization wouldn't have a chance to encounter it. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
62 62 304 The Punishing Virus wouldn't have crawled out of a furnace or a steam engine. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
63 63 304 Even if they did encounter it, as long as there was no electricity or digital devices, the Punishing Virus wouldn't have made a dent. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
64 64 304 The logical conclusion is obvious: the Punishing Virus targets highly advanced civilizations. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
65 65 304 It grows in a civilization like a parasite to keep it in check. And if the civilization is too sick to heal, it dies. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
66 66 304 That's right, an old cliche—the great filter of civilizations. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
67 67 304 I don't have any proof, obviously. I haven't observed any other civilizations that were hit by the Punishing Virus. Our only sample is humankind. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
68 68 304 But maybe you'll have the chance to go further. So jot down this guess in your notes. I'll be very happy if it inspires you somehow. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
69 69 304 Shadows fall, the night is long, but the dawn will come. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
70 70 304 Go see the dawn for us. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1 1
|
|
71 71 304 Finally-finally— ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
72 72 304 If everything we've done was wrong, then I think our only mistake is our own weakness. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
73 73 304 Living things reproduce. Civilizations expand. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
74 74 304 Since a monkey climbed down the tree two million years ago, humankind has been climbing up the food chain. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
75 75 304 We climbed with our hands and teeth at first. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
76 76 304 Then it was fire and spears. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
77 77 304 Steam engines, combustion engines, generators, computers... ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1 1
|
|
78 78 304 We were on top of the earth's food chain, so we started reaching for the stars. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
79 79 304 We take skin and flesh from animals, and we take resources from nature. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
80 80 304 We take energy from the sun, the wind, the tides... We take, and we take, our hunger boundless, just to feed our civilization. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
81 81 304 To go further, we built Babylonia. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
82 82 304 But traveling across galaxies requires a power source greater than everything that has kickstarted an Industrial Revolution in the past. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
83 83 304 So we tried to surpass the sun and control zero-point energy. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
84 84 304 It might seem that everything is destroyed now because of it, but we will not bemoan our involvement. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1
|
|
85 85 304 We only regret that we have not completely conquered it. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1

86 86 304 This will be my last journal entry. To the seekers of tomorrow— ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1

87 87 304 March on. Do not look back. Do not stop. Do not regret. March on. ffffffff 1 Assets/Product/Texture/Image/BgStory/Bgstory421.jpg 1 1
