The legend of Tiga

The drill was spinning rapidly, the blade was cutting madly, and the vines were crushed without any resistance.

Lightning flashed and debris flew everywhere.

The scene was as spectacular as it was shocking. It was as if the god was buried by countless soldiers, while the general was still swinging his powerful stick with all his might, knocking away the soldiers that rushed over one by one.

The clouds were flying all over the sky, leaving behind a desolate wasteland.

Cut in half or at the root.

Cut them one by one and knock them down piece by piece.

As brittle as paper and as weak as mud.

In just two or three seconds, Tiga descended from the sky and went straight into the ground. He drilled a huge hole among the vines that filled the gaps, and then rushed into it. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the depths. The dancing electric light gradually became dimmer as the depth increased, until it was submerged and covered by the lingering mist, and finally returned to its original darkness, without any light left.

Dyna had just escorted the two to outer space when he turned around and saw an absolutely shocking scene:
Suddenly, a little light appeared on the gray and even black surface of the planet, and then quickly spread in several directions, turning into seven or eight light bands, winding on the ground like snakes, each one moving at an astonishing speed. In just a few seconds, they had extended from one end of the planet to the other, and even forked in the middle.

From outer space, it looks like a large glowing net wrapping up the asteroid, or
The asteroid is being cut apart.

Because at the initial point where the light band is most dense, the ground is collapsing on a large scale.

Be it the tall trees, the silted swamps, or the towering mountains, at this moment, they all collapsed as if the supporting blocks had been removed, but they did not fall to the ground because the earth also collapsed, and all fell into the bottomless abyss.

And they had no chance to fall to the bottom, because as soon as they collapsed halfway, a raging sea of ​​fire gushed out from the ground, instantly engulfing them, and then sprayed into the sky, reaching an altitude of hundreds of thousands of meters.

There is more than one such volcanic-like eruption point, and the number is increasing, so that it is connected with the surrounding volcanoes, forming a vast sea of ​​fire, making this asteroid into a firework ball, spewing fire and light in all directions.

"Is this going to explode?"

Even though it is very unbelievable, such a doomsday scene still makes people think of the Big Bang.

Although this star cannot be called a planet, it is also a large asteroid with a surface area of ​​several million square kilometers. It is no exaggeration to describe it as huge.

Is it going to explode?

this.
Although I was very surprised and didn't understand, it didn't stop me from running.

The explosion radius of a grenade as big as a fist can reach six or seven meters, but the killing range of a missile as thick as a bucket can reach several football fields.

But what we have in front of us is an asteroid, and the impact range will only be wider. Even though the damage of the shock wave will be reduced to a minimum due to the vacuum, the kinetic energy of the high-speed moving fragments is enough to smash the surrounding area to pieces.

It is no exaggeration to say that given the size of this asteroid, if it exploded near the Earth's orbit, it would be enough to destroy the Earth's surface dozens or hundreds of times, turning every inch of land into scorched earth, a complete destruction.

He used his miraculous speed to the maximum so as to escape from this planet which could explode in the next second in the shortest possible time. But as he was moving away, Dyna could not help but look back.

Where is Senior Tiga?

Did he run out?

Was the explosion caused by Senior Tiga?

still is
With a series of questions in mind, Dyna increased his miracle speed to its maximum, speeding through the dark universe.

Then the sky suddenly lit up, and in an instant it seemed to illuminate the entire universe. It was so dazzling that people could not look directly at it. Then there was a ball of fire, which expanded rapidly like a balloon. Even though it was so far away, one could clearly see the rapidly expanding fireball.

In the field of vision, it was as big as a washbasin. Before that, the asteroid had become as small as a needle tip due to the increased distance. You can imagine how huge this fireball had expanded.

Soon, the explosion reached its peak, and the fireball expanded to its maximum size, emitting a brighter light than a high-power searchlight, but after its peak it declined.

The brightness was rapidly decreasing and the fireball was rapidly collapsing, which also meant that this astronomical feast was coming to an end.

No, it should have just begun.

Because when Dyna's attention was attracted by this breathtaking spectacle, he saw dense bright spots in the disappearing light. They were fragments reflecting the residual light, with more than billions of fragments of all sizes.

If it is not consumed in the flames, it will be pushed by the impact of the explosion and rushed in all directions.

The vast majority of them fly out of the solar system, and only a small part moves towards the solar system along the ecliptic. It is not difficult to imagine that for a long time in the future, all the planets in the solar system will usher in meteor showers of considerable scale.

Dyna stretched out his left hand, holding the three light balls in his palm behind him, and stretched out his right hand forward, with shining light, which instantly condensed into a light blue barrier like water waves, blocking Dyna in front of him.

call out!call out!call out!
The universe was silent, but when countless pieces of rubble passed by at a very fast speed, there was still a sound of breaking through the air, and when pieces of rubble hit the barrier held up by Dyna, bursting into bursts of light and flames like water splashes, there was a loud "bang! bang! bang!" sound in his mind.

For a moment, there were so many pieces of gravel hitting the Ultra Barrier that the splashing "water" was as dense as raindrops, and each one was so bright.

As brilliant as a flower!

As prosperous as spring!

“Lots of rocks.”

Dyna was amazed and even more worried. If the debris was so dense and entered the solar system, would it affect the Earth?

Thinking of this, Dyna immediately began to observe to see if there were any large stones.

Rocks below ten meters have little impact on the earth and are not harmful. Even if they approach the earth or even hit the earth, they will be reduced to nothing in the violent friction of the atmosphere. But if they are larger, there is a great possibility that they will break through the atmosphere and fall to the surface, which may cause damage to the city.

Once it breaks out of the atmosphere, even if the remaining volume is very small, its kinetic energy is extremely terrifying due to its extremely fast speed.

Even if it is only the size of a fist, it is enough to penetrate a building and create a hole as big as a truck.

If the basin was big, it would be able to collapse a mountain.

Because when the speed is constant, kinetic energy is proportional to weight.

The larger the meteorite, the heavier it is and the greater its kinetic energy when it lands.

But after looking around, I didn't see any very big rocks, most of them were very small. The ones as big as a fist were considered big, and the small ones were not even as thick as a pencil.

It can be seen how big the asteroid was when it exploded. It was really shattered.

"It's so powerful." Dyna muttered to himself. An asteroid that big was blown into so many pieces, the power must be extraordinary.

Then Dyna started to worry.

"Where's Tiga-senpai?"

The rubble pushed by the explosion flew here, but there was no sign of Tiga, who caused the explosion. This made Dyna very worried. He even supported the Ultra Barrier and flew forward, wanting to see the center of the explosion.

But just after he started flying and hadn't run far, Dyna stopped because he saw Tiga, who was fighting hard, wearing silver-white armor and holding a uniquely shaped powerful double-slashing spear.

It's a real fight.

On the opposite side was a ball covered with tentacles, about a hundred meters in size, but each tentacle was longer than the other, and they were no longer made of paper that would break at the slightest touch, but were able to collide head-on with the powerful double-slashing spears in Tiga's hands.

Every collision would produce sparks visible to the naked eye. If there was a medium for transmission, one would probably be able to hear the sound of metal colliding.

With two hands fighting against hundreds of tentacles, Tiga was not at a disadvantage at all, and was even able to achieve a suppressing effect.

Because the opponent's tentacles hit Tiga, he did not move or shake, and the kinetic energy of the attack was all blocked and absorbed by the cosmic armor. However, Tiga swung the powerful double-slash spear. Although the blade could not cut it off at once, the force was enough to knock the tentacle away.

In addition, there is nowhere to rely on in the universe, so the ball is hit again and again, spinning non-stop, just like the spinning top played by the old man in the square.

This scene is so shocking.

Because it is so different from Dyna's idea of ​​fighting monsters.

Is this a monster fight?
Why does it seem like a game?

Dyna has a question mark in his head: play basketball or fight monsters?

Although I know this should be the core of the artificial life form, but it is so weak
It was still beyond Dyna's expectations.

Being beaten and suppressed by Tiga, it seemed that he had no ability to fight back at all. How could he be called weak?

"Senior Tiga, this thing."

Dyna walked forward slowly and spoke hesitantly. Curiosity eventually overcame everything else and he wanted to satisfy his curiosity even at the risk of being exposed.

"The core of the asteroid occupied by artificial life forms." Tiga said lightly. This was what he discovered after rushing into the core of the asteroid. He also knew the reason why artificial life forms have survived until now, which is that they use the core of the asteroid as a 'battery'.

However, no matter how big the "battery" is, it will eventually run out of power, not to mention that this is just an asteroid that is not even as big as the moon. The core "power" is not much, and the size of the artificial life form is so huge that the daily consumption alone is not low, even if the artificial life form enters the lowest "mode".

It can only maintain basic life and is completely inactive. After such a long time, the core of this asteroid is basically consumed by day and month.

As the "electricity" decreased, the artificial life form continued to move deeper into the core in order to obtain enough "electricity" until it had drilled entirely inside. Its roots filled the core, and the core was almost reduced to an empty shell after being absorbed by it. It changed from a solid ball into a plant ball, which was the one that Tiga was facing.

And because of its existence, the asteroid did not fall apart due to the loss of its core.

But after being attacked by Tiga, the core was strongly stimulated and "came back to life". This movement was fed back to the surface and caused a doomsday earthquake that caused the sky to collapse and the earth to collapse. The asteroid, which had long been doomed, was shattered into pieces, leaving only this half-dead core ball.

"Let's not stay here, take them back to Earth. The Sphia Sphere is not inside this ball. Maybe it ran away." Tiga said. This core ball was not "eroded" by the Sphia Sphere. Either it was destroyed before it was shattered, or it hid in some fragments and ran away.

The huge explosion just now produced more than billions of fragments, which are impossible to distinguish carefully.

But no matter which situation is the case, the final destination of the Sphia Sphere is the Earth. Waiting for it to happen is the best way to deal with the Sphia Sphere.

"it is good!"

Dyna obediently turned around and left, not only because the shot was boring, but also because he wanted to send Shinjo, Yumimura and the others back as soon as possible.

Although he used his superpowers to mix light into a ball with the effect of a space station, it was only temporary after all. It would be better to send these two fragile people back to Earth as soon as possible.

Only after Dyna left did Tiga stop and let the half-dead ball spin on its own. He looked at it, but in his mind he was wondering whether to keep it or just destroy it.

Although the ball seems to have little resistance, it is only due to the lack of energy.

If it were given enough energy, it would probably unleash terrifying power.

Without mentioning anything else, just look at this asteroid and you will know that it has been completely hollowed out from the outside to the inside, and is densely covered with vines inside and out.

This tenacious life form and growth ability far surpass any known plant.

After all, this artificial life form can take root and grow on this asteroid far away from the solar system with a surface temperature of more than 200 degrees below zero. Its tolerance and adaptability to the environment are simply too strong.

Even if we can't make a complete product, we can make a replica. Even if it's not one-tenth or one-twentieth of the effect, even if it's only one percent, it will be enough for Earth plants to take root on Mars.

Instead of what it is like now, it needs to be cultivated in the Mars laboratory first, and then carefully cared for in the botanical garden before it can be slowly transplanted outdoors.

It has been ten years now, and we haven't planted a single blade of grass on Mars, and it has only reached the stage of careful care in the botanical garden. If we want to go outdoors, it will take even more time and energy.

How to put it? Transplanting Earth plants to Mars is just as difficult as transplanting fish in the sea to survive and reproduce on land. It may even be more difficult.

Because when fish move from the sea to the land, they are at least adjusting to the Earth's ecosystem, but the Earth and Mars are two completely different ecological environments.

The issue of soil composition alone is enough to make botanists scratch their heads, and it is also the reason why no grass has been planted so far.

But if we had this thing, we wouldn't be afraid of anything, not to mention the soil of Mars, even the soil of Venus wouldn't be a problem.

The environment on Venus is even worse. TPC has only dared to throw intelligent cultivation cabins there, and it is impossible for people to work there. (End of this chapter)
