Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 2031: Answering the Questions on the Wheel of Angels!

"Good morning, evening, and noon, everyone! This is Federal Television! I'm York D. Strong, your on-site reporter for this report! Now, please follow the camera and look at the massive space facility to the right front of my spaceship. That is the venue for today's commemorative press conference—the Angel's Wheel!"

Under the unified arrangement of the Punishment Fleet, major news organizations from human society reported on the Angel Wheel's transfer from the Earth-Mars orbit to the Earth-Moon sphere and its gradual approach to the Earth-Moon L1 space region, following the designated flight path.

Meanwhile, Maria Amonia, having changed out of her Zanskar Empire attire and into a smart uniform (with subtle insignia), was directing a final check on a psychic who had once been loyal to her and was now a member of the Earth Federation's New Human Training Institute.

On the projection screen above Maria Ammonia's head, there were also reports from media outlets around the world about the Wheel of Angels.

Although these journalists eloquently recounted the origins and responsibilities of the Angel Wheel in their reports, the intelligence they actually possessed was all released under the instructions of General He, who has now publicly revealed his identity and is showing his true face.

Among these intelligence reports, the Angel Wheel is an advanced satellite fortress secretly built by the Earth Federation to cope with the potential for a civilizational crisis. In the recent Black Hole Crisis, the Angel Wheel successfully used its power to resist a deadly attack from the enemy.

"Has the new human being been made public like this?"

Maria Amonia was not attached to the so-called Queen of the Zanskar Empire, but she had some doubts about why He Ming had so quickly taken advantage of the impact of the black hole crisis to completely expose the new humans, acknowledge their existence in the name of the Earth Federation, and affirm their role in the previous crisis.

"What? Are you worried that people will be afraid of the existence of the new humans?"

Just as Maria Amonia was worrying, CC, dressed in a white robe and wearing a golden headdress on her forehead, came to Maria Amonia's side with light steps.

"Lord CC."

Maria Amonia knew the entire process before and after the black hole crisis, and she also knew that the seemingly lazy woman in front of her, who actually played an important role in the black hole crisis, was in a sense the spokesperson for the world's will.

Therefore, she dared not be negligent.

"I have some questions, and I hope Lord CC can answer them."

CC looked around and, finding no one else in sight, nodded slightly.

Maria Amonia, the former queen of the Zanskar Empire and now one of the mentors of the New Humans, is indeed very perceptive.

"Actually, you don't need to be afraid that people will be afraid of the existence of the new humans. In the previous crisis, although the earth, ocean, and sky were smoothed out, the memory of being swallowed and torn apart by the black hole still exists in people's memories."

CC's expression turned serious, and she put on her little face.

"Judging from the situation at the time, although General Ming—no, General He—successfully prevented the crisis from erupting with the help of his friends, he was powerless to manipulate people's memories. From a utilitarian perspective, it was a failed rescue!"

"But in the long run, this is a scar that must be left."

Upon hearing CC's explanation, Maria Ammonia gradually understood.

Actually, this is also because when the black hole crisis broke out, the Angel Wheel was not in the Earth-Moon circle, but remained in a certain region of space in the Earth-Mars transfer orbit.

Even though Maria Amonia witnessed Axis, who had been by the side of the Angel Wheel since the defeat of the Zanskar Empire, enter space and travel to Earth to prevent the crisis from erupting, she could not follow him.

It wasn't until half a month after the crisis ended that the Angel Wheel finally returned to Earth.

Therefore, Maria Ammonia and the people living on the Angel Wheel did not experience the painful moment of being swallowed and torn apart by the black hole.

“According to Lord CC, for at least a hundred years, no, thirty years, people will remember the crisis that happened half a month ago and crave the power to resolve the crisis before it even breaks out.” Maria Amonia’s expression gradually relaxed after she said this conclusion.

"Have you figured it out?"

CC smiled slightly.

"Yes. Thank you so much, CC, for taking the time to answer my question!"

Maria Amonia bowed respectfully in thanks.

"No! You are also an important member of General He's upcoming New Human Project. Understanding the reasons behind some things will be helpful to the project."

CC waved her hand, not caring about it.

"Also, stop bowing so often. You no longer need to be that so-called queen."

"Yes, Lord CC."

After giving a few instructions, CC strolled around the Angel Wheel at her leisure.

To be honest, this was the first time CC had ever seen the entire Angel Wheel in person.

Although in C's world, CC has learned of the existence of the Angel's Wheel from the collective consciousness and confirmed with them that if the Angel's Wheel can be successfully activated, it may have an impact on the human subconscious.

As for the scale of the impact, the collective consciousness did not explain, nor was it willing to explain, but simply said, "If you want to know, you might as well ask He Ming," before sending CC out of C's world and letting it return to reality.

"I never expected that this satellite fortress, which is regarded as a weapon by the collective consciousness, would be such a scene."

CC looked at the crowd coming and going, but who all bowed to her upon her arrival, and shook her head helplessly.

It seems that the previous outrageous move by the collective consciousness has earned her the title of spokesperson for the world's will.

Although this may not have much deterrent effect on ordinary people.

However, for those with keen intuition and spiritual insight, this is an existence that cannot be ignored.

"Alright! Let's go back to the venue! Colonel Ming, well, that guy who should be called He Ming should have arrived by now."

Just as CC turned to return to the venue, the ships escorted by the Punishment Fleet from the lunar city of von Braun to the Angel Wheel slowly entered the port under the watchful eyes of numerous media outlets.

This scene excited all the media reporters present.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Did you see that? The original charter, which has been missing since the beginning of the Universal Century, has just arrived at the Angel's Wheel under the escort of the Punishment Fleet. It will be unveiled to the public again at the moment of the commemorative ceremony, and will show the world the hopes and blessings that our ancestors had for humanity at the beginning of the Universal Century!"

"Look! More than eighty years have passed since humanity left its home planet and set foot in the universe. On the eve of reaching the centennial mark, it has been caught up in this chaotic dimensional disaster that human civilization never imagined or anticipated."

"In such a chaotic and deadly moment, humanity may need a monument that unites the will of all mankind and embodies the soul of all humanity. And the primordial charter from the beginning of the universe may just be such a monument!"
