This day is destined to be remembered by all humans on the planet.
At 8:07 a.m., the red demon star could already be observed with the naked eye approaching the planet over the Eastern Continent.
The originally blue sky was dyed an ominous scarlet, and people looked up in horror, unable to believe what they saw.
All the external calls of the Shinra Company were blocked, but the operators at the bottom of the Shinra Company knew nothing about it. [The planet is going to end], rumors spread from nowhere and quickly spread to the entire city, Midgar
Suddenly, people fell into panic and madness. People broke into stores and looted, and vicious crimes continued to occur in the city.
Some well-informed Shinra executives knew that last night Shinra launched four rockets carrying large amounts of powerful explosives into outer space, and then there was no news from the rockets. Many of them were secretly contacting their families in Midgar.
, let them immediately carry their valuables and escape from the city, preferably directly to the Western Continent.
Midgar is the final landing point of the meteorite, and the force of the fall is likely to destroy this huge steel city and the surrounding wilderness. This is how they were informed.
But in fact, according to the joint deduction calculations reported to Rufus by the science department and the space development department half an hour ago, the observable diameter of the meteorite has exceeded 960 kilometers! Once the meteorite directly impacts the planet, the continental shelf of the Eastern Continent will
Immediately shattered, the Western Continent and the Northern Continent will also have extremely large-scale plate movements and collisions due to the aftermath, and everything on the surface of the continent will be wiped out instantly. Then the seawater around the world will evaporate, and lava will cover the entire planet's surface! From then on, the entire planet
Completely plunged into deathly silence, with no possibility of any life left.
This is no longer a trivial incident two thousand years ago when the [Disaster Star] Jenova crashed into the planet. The small meteorites that only carried Jenova at that time caused indelible trauma to the planet. The scars remain to this day and are
It's called the "Great Hollow in the North".
The magic [Meteor Star] developed by the ancient Settra tribe is worthy of being the ultimate black magic for stars.
It’s not that Rufus hasn’t tried to fight. He has asked Shinra scientists to try all possible solutions. The most feasible solution is to use cannons from Midgar and Junon to gather all of Shinra’s Mako energy.
, launching the strongest bombardment at the meteorite at the same time, the probability of crushing the meteorite reaches 29%, which is the highest success rate among all plans.
But this plan has two fatal points.
First, the transportation method of the magic furnace to the two cannons can only rely on old transmission pipelines that have not had time to be updated. The losses caused by this are secondly. It is very likely that an explosion will occur under the condition of extreme power transmission and trigger a series of unforeseen events.
The catastrophic consequences of control. At the same time, two of the eight giant magic furnaces in Midgar were blown up. Junong could only rely on the twelve small and medium-sized magic furnaces in the Junong area to achieve the maximum power of the bombardment.
If so, we need to mobilize enough Mako energy from the Eastern Continent and even the Western Continent.
Secondly, the purpose of the Junon and Midgar forts was originally to deter Wutai and other continents, so when they were originally built, they were adjusted to the left and right translation and up and down fine-tuning of the fort rotation. Now Shinra is mobilizing as much as possible.
Many engineering teams stepped up the construction and transformed it into an upward-rotating mode, striving to complete the transformation plan for the fort before the meteorite landed in the critical area.
"...Can't it be completed? Then work hard to complete it! Let the engineering team over at Junong speed up!"
In the spacious office, Rufas threw away the phone and slumped down in the sofa chair, rubbing his eyebrows with his fingers. After a while, he looked at Zeng who was standing in front of his desk: "Is there any news about them?
?”
"Someone saw them in the Ice Village, and then there were no witnesses to Heather's team."
Zeng put the pitifully thin report sheet in his hand on the desk and pushed it in front of Rufus: "Perhaps our savior team has given up?"
Rufas did not look at the two report sheets but shook his head tiredly:
"You haven't really dealt with Heather face-to-face, so you don't know much about this person. He is cunning, rude, violent, and has a ridiculous sense of justice, but he does not have the characteristic of [giving up halfway]. In this regard, he is different from
Sephiroth is a type of person who will never give up until he achieves his goal. At this point, we can no longer regard Heather as the biggest threat, but must find a balance point to jointly fight against Sephiroth and Sephiroth.
That damn stone in the sky, Sephiroth is the source of all this after all."
"Heather doesn't seem to be the type willing to cooperate with Shinra. We are no longer of use in his eyes." Zeng shrugged slightly.
"Without Shinra's assistance, it would be difficult for him to break through the barrier above the Great Hollow in the North."
Rufas tapped his fingers on the table, quickly made up his mind, picked up the phone and dialed a number:
"...It's me. Let the engineering team stop the renovation work on Junon Fort, leave a minimum number of operators in Junon, and all the rest of the people and equipment will be allocated to Midgar's engineering team! Take action immediately!"
Putting down the phone, he looked at Zeng: "Where are the Scarlet people?"
"Director Scarlet is supervising the renovation work of the Midgar Fort. By the way, this is the proposal she just submitted. Judging from her expression...it is quite urgent." Zeng handed over another report sheet.
Rufus took it and looked at it doubtfully. It read Scarlet's proposal to name Midgar's cannon - [Big Sister Big Cannon].
"turn down!!"
Rufus tore the report sheet in his hand into pieces. Sooner or later, he would be pissed to death by these incompetent subordinates.
After calming down his breathing, he tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically: "Inform Scarlet and send a team of reliable people to Junon to adjust the fort and lock the muzzle of the gun on the large hollow in the north."
"You mean..."
The sound of tapping on the table suddenly stopped:
"Use the Junon Cannon to blast through the protective shield above the large hollow in the north!"
…………………………………………
At 9:39 a.m., the huge scarlet meteorite in the sky could already be observed in the northern continent.
At this time, Heather and his party had arrived at the foot of the mountain near the large hollow in the north. Surrounded by numerous terrifying monsters, their bodies were deformed and twisted, with suspicious mucus flowing all over their bodies. They roared and wandered in their fixed areas.
"They're the bastards from Sephiroth. We don't have the time to waste time with them now. Let's get started, Alice."
Heather stood on the roof of the truck, looking up at the large northern hollow that resembled a crater and the looming hemispherical shield above it, and moved her shoulders and arms.
Alice stood beside him, the center of the necklace around her neck shining with the unique red light of the summoning stone.
The next moment, the extremely huge summoning array rapidly expanded to all directions with Alice as the center, and the ground began to tremble violently.
The giant summoned beast based on the ancient forbidden book "Enigma Codex" began to reveal its true identity to the world.
