Chapter 141: Mysterious Substance
Just after Dinah sealed Olagran Rennes in a black hole, the Sophia sphere, which was engaged with Beta in Mars orbit, suddenly stopped attacking, and all the Sophia spheres merged into a large Sophia sphere, and then left with the surprised eyes of Captain Hibi, Nakajima, and Kaiya.
"Have you retreated?" said Kaya, muttering to himself as she looked at the giant Sophia sphere that had already withdrawn from Beta's attack range.
"But why?" Sophia's sphere, which originally had the upper hand, suddenly gave up the attack and chose to retreat, which made Nakajima a little puzzled.
"Probably know you've lost." Captain Hibi whispered his guess, but the truth was not far from the result that Captain Hibi had guessed.
"That's it, is it over?" Looking at the pitch-black universe that had quieted down again in front of him, Kaiya said in a daze, as if he was a little confused about the strange departure of Sophia's sphere.
"I don't know," Captain Kibi whispered to himself when he heard Kaya's question, "but if those lifeforms come back, we'll have to fight with all our might." ”

On the lawn not far from the TPC headquarters base, Ryomasa stood alone on the lawn where he had been talking with Asuka not long ago, looking at the starry night sky in the sky, but his mood couldn't be better.
The lava supersynthesizer Olagran Rennes, who suddenly appeared on Earth and raided the geothermal energy base, has been wiped out by the Giant of Light and another monster that suddenly appeared, and the news just came that the Beta in the Martian orbit has also successfully returned, and this arduous two-line battle can be said to have been perfectly completed by SUPER-GUTS, but only the bird that was left behind when he drove the Gamma into the atmosphere still has no news...
"Although the battle was won...", Liang looked up at the stars in the night and whispered in a low voice, and at this moment, the W.I.T communicator on Liang's waist suddenly sounded.
"Yes, I'm Yumimura." Wiping away the sentimentality on his face, Liang turned on the W.I.T. communicator and reported in a capable tone.
[Immediately rush to Earth coordinates S10.] An image of Captain Hibi appeared on the communicator screen, indicating to Ryo.
"Are there any monsters again?!" Liang Wenyan was taken aback, and immediately asked.
[It's not.] Captain Kibi smiled strangely when he heard Ryo's inquiry, and continued, "There's a patient with a bad cold there, go and save him.] ]
“... Got it! Looking at the strange smile on Captain Hibi's face, knowing that Captain Hibi's habits had roughly guessed who the 'severe cold patient' was, Liang responded with a pleasant smile, and then quickly returned to the TPC headquarters base, preparing to drive the vehicle to rescue the 'severe cold patient'.
.....
On the beach, a little far from the TPC headquarters, Asuka in life jackets is sitting around a campfire to keep warm, and not far from the beach, the Big Broken Alpha is being placed haphazardly there.
Humanity, no, this planet called Earth, is really a very small existence in the history of the universe. ’
Quietly watching the starry birds in the night sky, the words that his father had said to him gradually appeared in his mind, and the majestic figure that he remembered in his heart also appeared on the vast starry sky.
But, believe, there is something greater than this universe. Asuka's father, who came to Asuka's mind, whispered with the young Asuka in his arms.
'Really? Where? The young Asuka asked, looking at his father in confusion.
Asuka's father withdrew his gaze into the distance, looked at the puzzled little Asuka and replied with a chuckle, "In everyone's hearts. ’
The figure of the father holding the little Asuka in his arms gradually dissipated, and Asuka smiled and looked down at the bonfire that was still burning, at this time, there was a sudden sound of a vehicle horn not far away, and Asuka looked up, just in time to see Yumi Mura Ryo sitting in the driver's seat of the car.
"Hey~~Here~~Here~~~" Seeing Ryo Yumimura who came to pick him up, Asuka smiled and got up and shouted at Ryo without forgetting to wave his arms to get Ryo's attention.
"What a fool, idiot...", Liang who was sitting in the driver's seat looked at the lively bird in front of him, choked up and let out a low laugh and curse, and then drove the car to the direction where the bird was.
"Asuka is here~~Hey~~" Asuka continued to laugh and shout in Ryo's direction, and Ryoya chuckled cooperatively and drove to Asuka's side.
Already, there will be no more confusion. Looking at the bird that had come to me, I thought to myself, "I can strongly feel that the light that my father has been talking about... It's in my body right now! ’
Asuka who no longer thinks about why he was chosen by the light smiled and sat down on the seat next to Liang.,Then, with Liang laughing and scolding.,Leave in the direction of returning to TPC headquarters.。

In the SUPER-GUTS command room at the TPC headquarters base, Captain Kibi, who had just returned from the flight, and Kaiya and Nakajima walked in briskly from outside the door.
"Mai, where did the strange meteorite you just said fall now?" Captain Kibi, who had just stepped into the SUPER-GUTS command room, immediately asked Mai Midorikawa, who was still busy in front of the computer.
"Yes, the location of that strange meteorite is not far from the TPC headquarters, and I haven't received a detailed report yet." Mai Midorikawa looked at the information on the screen in front of her and quickly responded to Captain Kibi's inquiry.
"Strange meteorites? What's strange? Nakajima looked curiously at the busy Midorikawa Mai and asked, for Nakajima, a guy who often calls himself a super-guts stunned TPC genius, strange things are the objects he likes to study.
"Because the results of the satellite exploration just now show that this strange meteorite has a weak life response, and it is suspected that it is an extraterrestrial life reaction." Mai Midorikawa, who was busy, answered Nakajima's question directly without looking back.
"Extraterrestrial life reactions? This can't be left alone, Kaya and Nakajima, come with me to drive the Beta to the area of the incident to investigate! Hearing that the meteorite actually had an alien life reaction, Captain Kibi, who had not had time to sit down, immediately gave instructions to Nakajima and Kaiya, who also had not had time to sit down, and then turned around and walked towards the door of the SUPER-GUTS command room.
"Understood..."Kaya and Nakajima looked at each other helplessly, then got up and followed Captain Kibi out the door.
As soon as Captain Hibi walked to the door, the automatic recognition had already opened on its own, and Asuka and Liang outside the door happened to be standing in front of Captain Hibi at this time.
"Captain! Asuka Shin, successfully complete the mission! Asuka, who reacted quickly, immediately saluted Captain Hibi in a funny way, and then reported to Captain Hibi with a slight smugness.
And Liang on the side looked at the bird who had not changed much from before, and felt helpless in his heart.
"You newcomer seems to have broken the Alpha again?" Ignoring Asuka's funnyness, Captain Hibi looked at Asuka with a wrenched face and asked, which made Asuka's originally smug expression stiffen slightly.
"But—" Asuka was about to open his mouth to defend himself, but was interrupted by Captain Hibi.
"I think this is the second time you've joined the team?" Captain Kibi continued to ask unhurriedly, this time Asuka stopped talking, because his 'record' since joining the team is really strong...
"You kid damaged the Alpha twice after two missions! What do you kid give me to be proud of?! Looking at Asuka who no longer retorted, Captain Hibi roared and shouted, "What are you doing here now!" Why don't you hurry up and follow us to the meteorite fall site for exploration! ”
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away..."
Asuka quickly replied when he heard this, and then ran quickly towards the SUPER-GUTS body parking area as if fleeing, and the panicked back caused Ryowa Kaiya and Nakajima to chuckle, and only Captain Kibi was able to cure Asuka in the SUPER-GUTS.

Over the valley not far from the TPC headquarters, the Beta and Gamma have arrived at the site where the meteorite landed and have begun to land.
"The target location has been reached, Mai, the exact location of the location where the meteorite was sent." Captain Kibi, who stepped out of the Beta, turned on the communication device equipped with the GUTS helmet and said to Mai Midorikawa, who was in the SUPER-GUTS command room.
[Yes, the exact location is...]
Following the direction reported by Mai Midorikawa, Captain Kibi and the five Asuka carefully pulled out the Brest pistol that each super-GUTS was equipped with, and slowly walked towards the meteorite crash site. After all, it is a strange meteorite with the reaction of extraterrestrial life, and everyone is not taken lightly.
Gradually, everyone has come to the ground where the meteorite fell, and a not-so-serious depression appeared directly on the ground, and a regular-shaped round material was quietly embedded in the depression.
Captain Hibi made a command gesture towards Asuka and the others, and everyone nodded and scattered around a short distance away, carefully investigating whether there was an unknown threat nearby.
After the group had carefully surveyed several times to confirm that there was no threat in the vicinity, Captain Hibi took the lead and walked towards the meteorite-like material that emitted a faint glow with a Brest pistol in his hand. After carefully observing for a while to confirm that there was no danger, Nakajima and the others began to recover the dark green meteorite with the small device they carried, after all, it was not practical to study this strange meteorite here, not only lacked effective devices, but also lacked professional personnel.
"Captain!" Nakajima, who was briefly observing the fast dark green meteorite in front of him, suddenly shouted at Captain Hibi, his tone was a little eager.
"What's wrong? What did you find? Captain Kibi walked quickly to Nakajima's side, looked at the meteorite that had been loaded in the device, and asked.
"Yes, this almost unknown substance is not so much a meteorite as an egg laid by some creature!" Nakajima pointed to the extremely regular round 'meteorite' and explained to Captain Kibi, "Although the meteorite will be subjected to severe high-temperature friction when it breaks through the atmosphere, resulting in a mostly round shape without edges and corners, this meteorite is also too regular, as if it has never changed its shape at all, and..."
"And?"
"Look, Captain, here!" Seeing the confusion on Captain Hibi's face, Nakajima carefully handed the device containing the 'meteorite' to Captain Hibi, and pointed to an inconspicuous part of it and gestured to Captain Hibi.
"This is? Shattered... Fissure? "Captain Kibi stared intently at the location pointed by Nakajima, but unexpectedly found that there was an inconspicuous crack in the 'meteorite', as if something had 'broken' out of the 'meteorite'...
.....
(I will send it today.) That meteorite or something is purely my personal nonsense, so I don't need to be serious. )
