Could it be that this is also a civilization currently facing the Swarm disaster?

And doesn't this mean the two of us are alone on a trip?

Awesome!

She clenched her fists happily.

"A new spaceship?"

At this moment.

Firefly was looking around the ship curiously; it was different from the previous one.

Then she obediently sat in the co-pilot's seat.

Su Han, beside her, was also activating the buttons.

"Yeah, this one is called the 【Universe Dragon-Disc】. I modeled it after a story where, after human civilization entered the great era of cosmic exploration, a transport ship embarked on their adventure, heading to other planets and such."

"Although that transport ship was a decommissioned warship that had been refitted."

"And the weapons just share the same names, like the equipped multi-missile system, Brachiosaurus missiles, Pedomium cannons, and by the way, it's also loaded with warp and various defense systems. Alright, ready to depart!"

In an instant.

The spaceship turned into a stream of light and vanished into this starry sky.

After crossing a very long distance, Su Han and Firefly, piloting the Universe Dragon-Disc, finally saw the planet that was their destination. The first thing that caught Firefly's eyes was the broken moon.

And the Earth.

"Huh, where is this?"

Furthermore, Su Han deliberately slowed down, yet still quickly pierced through Earth's atmosphere and headed toward the planet's interior.

On the other side of space.

The No. 13 Satellite Orbital Base, 【The Bunker】, also noticed this anomaly at this time.

The intelligence officer inside spoke up hurriedly.

"Commander, an unidentified flying object is heading toward Earth. It doesn't belong to any of our machine models, and we haven't received any useful information; we only detected a trace of the other party, and it is not the human army from the moon."

"It's an outside force!"

The personnel here were all shocked.

Even the Commander, 【White】, found it hard to believe.

"Besides the aliens from back then, there are actually other spaceships?"

At this time, communication also came from the human army side. After she spoke with the other party, she immediately began to issue orders.

"Hurry and find out the specific region where they landed!"

"Order the YoRHa troops to prepare for departure."

"We must send out combat units to find that spaceship. We must find out exactly what the situation is; we absolutely cannot be careless!"

"Glory to mankind!"

Meanwhile, Firefly and Su Han had already landed safely.

And the spaceship had been stored away by Su Han into an unknown space.

Firefly looked at the sky.

A wave of emotion washed over her.

"Similar worlds occasionally exist in the universe, whether it's that Blue Star of Herta's, or Earth, or other blue planets; this one is about the same. However, the damage to the moon will inevitably have an impact on this world."

She took out an instrument to collect data.

"Let me see, the Earth's axis here has changed. Has the planet beneath our feet been tidally locked, leading to fixed day and night?"

"Without a day-night cycle, wouldn't many regions be just like daytime even at night?"

However, for the Firefly of the past, this didn't matter.

As a cyborg in the past, she lacked the function to dream.

But now, she was better.

So Firefly blinked playfully.

"How can one sleep like this? It's too affected."

However, she suddenly raised her energy gun, aimed it at the bushes in the distance, and said coldly.

"You've been watching for so long, can you come out now?"

"Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Once she entered a combat stance, Firefly would immediately manifest that cold, ruthless veteran trait.

"3... 2..."

"Wait! Don't shoot yet!"

A girl in a hood hurried out from inside and quickly raised her hands.

"I have no malice."

"It's just very strange. I thought reinforcements had been sent by the Human Council, but you guys actually..."

The mere fact that the spaceship shrank and disappeared.

Had stunned her.

And Firefly also looked at the scan data on the instrument in her other hand; she was also surprised.

"You are not human!"

"According to the scan, the internal structure is that of a human-like mechanical prosthetic."

The two of them joined the girl.

The girl's voice rang out.

"On July 1st, 5012 AD, aliens suddenly invaded Earth and launched attacks on various regions. Humans resisted to the death, but unfortunately, these extraterrestrial creatures could also manufacture a large number of 【Machine Lifeforms】."

"With terrifying numbers, they destroyed the prosperous human civilization."

"There was no other way; the surviving humans could only flee to the moon. For this reason, they established a base there and formed the 【Human Council】."

"In 5013, humans began mass-producing androids, increasing combat models, launching a campaign to retake Earth from space, and establishing military combat bases in satellite orbit."

"By the year 5204, there were already 12 such bases."

"Humans have been on the moon all along, and it is the androids they manufacture that are constantly fighting, constantly descending to Earth, and engaging in combat with those machine lifeforms."

"Of course, I am different from them. Those of us on Earth are the 【Resistance】."

We are ordinary models of androids.

It can be traced back to a long time ago.

There are three types in total.

The Moon (Human Army).

Space Orbital Bases (New Combat Models).

Earth (Resistance).

"And my name is Lily; I am the leader of the android Resistance in this area."

When she said this, she mocked herself a little.

"Sure enough, those guys don't care about us at all. Not only do we have no equipment, but we don't even have support."

"On the ground, we can only be forced to lose our families and partners, engaging in this endless battle against those machine lifeforms."

This made Firefly fall silent.

In her mind, she couldn't help but recall the past.

The Glamoth Empire.

A vast kingdom that once ruled over tens of thousands of light-years of territory, built civilizations on many planets, colonized planets with good environments, and sent mining ships flying to numerous stars.

The powerful fleet constantly brought other worlds into its territory.

Those savage civilizations were able to witness the might of the Empire and thus be unified.

That was the prosperous period of the Firmament Empire, Glamoth.

Until the arrival of the Swarm.

It tore the Empire apart, and destruction came everywhere.

And in that despair.

Glamoth manufactured the key weapon for this.
