Chapter 705: Quiet Summer
The battle is over.
When the dazzling torrent of light on the sky dissipated, the sun that once scorched the entire planet disappeared, leaving only the residual heat in the air and a few broken halos.
The silver moon was still hanging high, and under its protection, the atmosphere circulated to balance the unbalanced temperature and climate on the planet.
Two days later, the brilliant moon crown slowly converged and then descended, and the environment of the planet gradually returned to calm.
In the floating courtyard hanging high in the atmosphere, many silver-winged species looked at the end of the sky nervously, and the silver star that was descending, and there was still fear in their hearts.
They didn't know why their own sun crown was destroyed and fell in an instant, and where the torrent that ran through the sea of stars came from.
Could it be that other powerful sacred sun crowns interfered here and participated in the battle? They could only understand this, and then they were afraid of their future fate.
In the Fifth Era, the battles between the Dark Suns were extremely cruel. If one of the Dark Suns fell, the extermination of its followers would follow to prevent them from reuniting with a new Sun Crown.
With uneasiness about the future, these sky courtyards began to prepare for war, with large floating war machines hovering, ready to respond at any time.
"No matter what the enemy is, we must persist. This is the paradise given to us by Her Majesty the West Ephren, and other sacred suns cannot easily interfere." Although they were unsure, the current Silver Wings leaders could only convince themselves in this way and barely appease their fellow tribesmen around them.
At the same time, at the headquarters of the Ford Alliance.
The huge stone-built hall was extremely quiet at the moment. This quietness was not because there was no one here. On the contrary, it was now full of representatives from various forces and settlements. However, no one dared to make a loud noise at the moment. They just looked up at the silver-haired girl with her back to everyone at the end of their sight with reverence and fear.
The long black hair that used to be turned into pure and beautiful silver at this moment. There was a silver moon between her eyebrows that had not yet dissipated. There was also a bright laurel branch pattern on the wrist that was exposed from the cuffs. If you look closely, there seemed to be a faint silver halo behind her head.
As the price of raising the crown, Tilan also had a similar situation to Blanche. These beautiful veins and marks, as well as the revealed characteristics, made her image gradually approach that of an angel or a god.
Fortunately, the scale of raising the crown this time was not large. With her talent as a colorful singer, these characteristics would gradually dissipate in a few weeks and return to their usual appearance.
Looking at the stone wall with inscriptions in the hall, Tilan stood quietly, and turned around after a while to face the people here.
It was not that she deliberately left everyone alone, but she had just ended the state of the moon crown. Even if she glanced at everyone, everyone here would be unconscious, so she needed to close her eyes and calm down for a while.
Now, her eyes, which were still shining with silver light, slowly looked at everyone, as if invisible ripples were sweeping across them. Many people turned pale and could not stand steadily. Fortunately, Tilan had a gentle personality, and the unconscious spiritual ripples were not very aggressive, which allowed everyone to persevere.
Is this the majesty of the sacred sun? No wonder no one in history dared to look directly at those great beings. Many people thought to themselves, and more awe rose in their hearts, trying to be humble under this gaze.
"The crown of the rising sun has fallen." This was the first time Tilan spoke after she was separated from the state of the moon crown.
Although she did not deliberately use any ability, her soft voice seemed to have a kind of magic. Almost the moment she opened her mouth, everyone present was immersed in it, as if there was no other sound in the world, and this sound seemed to be the most beautiful thing in the world, unforgettable.
Looking at this scene, Tilan paused for a moment, feeling a little helpless. Talking like this was like those witches who bewitched people in mythology. It was not hypnosis, but better than brainwashing.
No wonder no one opposed Isanissa when she was in power. Perhaps as long as she spoke, no one would refuse her request.
Taking a shallow breath and calming down the emotion in her heart, Tilan spoke again.
"Now that the fight is over, this planet should not have any more major wars and disasters."
"But, there are some things I want to tell you." The silver-haired singer spoke slowly in a soft voice.
"The fifth era you are familiar with ended more than 1,200 years ago, and the outside world has also undergone earth-shaking changes."
Some birds flew over the windowsill of the hall, causing the shadows on the ground to change.
"Now is the sixth era when the Rose Federation rules the Milky Way. They are the descendants of the original humans. They defeated all the suns of the fifth era and created a peaceful era without the dark sun."
Tilan turned her eyes and looked at the gradually orange sunset outside the window. She took a step and continued to tell the story.
"Isainessa, the founder of the Rose Federation, the great singer, used her life's actions to reverse the situation in the entire galaxy and ended the long night."
"In the hundreds of years that followed, the Rose Federation has been committed to restoring the ecological environment in the galaxy, allowing more ordinary people to survive and live a more affluent life."
"This beautiful scene lasted for nearly six hundred years, and the population of the Rose Federation also expanded to more than ten trillion, and many broken galaxies were revitalized again."
"After that, many problems accumulated within the federation, such as class solidification, corruption and greed. This situation gave birth to another great singer, Aimuralin."
"In the end, at the cost of her own sacrifice, she purged the entire federation and allowed the country, which was about to collapse at that time, to become glorious again and enter an era of revival for more than a hundred years." "
Later, more than four hundred years later, was the time when I was born. As you guessed, I was not an indigenous resident of this planet, but a passer-by from the Rose Federation."
After saying this, Tilan turned around again and shifted his gaze from the window to the people present.
"Now, the fleet that's going to take me back is on the way. I probably won't be able to come here for a long time. Right now, the Rose Federation is not friendly to the new races born in the Fifth Era."
"Fortunately, I have the ability to influence them a little bit at the moment, and that fleet won't indiscriminately cleanse the entire planet, but what happens after that is beyond my control."
"The best outcome is that you save your lives and this place becomes a special control area. You will probably be asked to control your fertility and not reproduce without restraint."
"A bad outcome..." Tilan stopped and shook her head.
"I will try my best to stop it, but how it will turn out in the end depends on your performance. I hope you can live as peacefully as possible and not start any more fights."
"That's all I can do." She sighed slightly. Even though she is now a Sunday-level singer, she cannot completely decide the fate of this planet.
The pain left by the Fifth Era is not so easy to resolve, and the current Federation is also somewhat turbulent, without a strong will to control the direction of the entire ship.
After listening to the story of the silver-haired girl, many people at the scene slowly knelt down. On the one hand, they were grateful for her rescue, otherwise many people present would have died under the scorching sun, and on the other hand, they prayed for her protection.
Although it is still unknown what the girl's identity is in the Rose Federation, no matter where she is, with the strength she has shown, she is definitely not a small figure, but the only great figure they can currently contact.
In response to the silent prayers of the crowd, Tilan just shook her head slightly, neither refusing nor accepting.
At this moment, on the Broken Island far to the south, a tired figure staggered and fell from the sky, landing in the jungle on the island.
"Woo, Lololia is running out of power." The girl, who was a mechanical body, was a little embarrassed at the moment. Her clothes and hair were soaked by the sea water, and there were many scratches on her body.
"Where is this? When will Tilan come to pick me up? Woo." After finally recovering from the chaos on the bottom of the sea and rushing out, she encountered a violent storm when the sun and the moon fought, and she turned around in the storm for many times before she broke free.
These actions greatly consumed her accumulated energy. Now even high-speed flight is difficult to continue, and she can only make an emergency landing on this deserted island to hibernate.
A few days later, the grand fleet stayed on the periphery of the planet. The huge number visible to the naked eye and the unmatched powerful starships made the various races on the ground panic and could only pray for the mercy and tolerance of the other party.
Inside the Titan flagship, after a thorough inspection, Tilan and Orles walked into the large central hall, where they met the marshal general leading the Fourth Fleet and a group of priests from the Golden Flame Flower Cathedral. Finding
Heshia was already a pleasant surprise for many people, and seeing Orles led by Tilan, many people were even more shocked.
"This is really Miss Orles." Several priests couldn't help but step forward. You know, after Blanche raised the Sun Crown, Orles was the most promising next generation of Sun Diva. "
Yes, but Orles was seriously injured in that battle, and she can't remember many things in the past." Tilan said with a little regret and sadness.
"It's okay, the Federation has the best doctors, and it's a rare blessing for Her Highness Orles to survive now." Someone said so.
After that, Tilan and everyone walked through the hall and entered the small conference room on the inside. They sat down in the central seat and began to talk about their life on this planet in the past few years.
Slowly, everyone was immersed in her story. Her soft voice seemed to be telling an ancient poem, with a magic that made people yearn for it.
After a long time, when Tilan finished telling the origin of this planet and the past of the Mechanical Council, everyone was still a little reluctant to leave.
Everyone present was born in the Rose Federation. They learned about the past of the Fifth Era from books and history. They didn't know much about the real images and details. Now, listening to Tilan's detailed story, it was inevitable that they were a little dazed. This was of course the effect of the singer's talent, which could fully express and convey many scenes and feelings that ordinary people could not convey.
After Tilan finished telling these, it was time to discuss how to deal with the remaining new races on the planet.
"We have reported the situation to the Council and the Golden Flame Flower Cathedral, and will wait for orders later." The priest present said so.
In fact, it is also possible for the fleet to open fire and clean the planet. If Tilan hadn't been there, they would probably have done so.
But now that the girl has said so much, although she didn't speak directly, as a singer, she conveyed this tender feeling in her heart, and everyone present would understand, so they didn't act directly, but asked for instructions.
"Thank you." The girl bowed to thank him, then raised her head, and her silver eyes slowly swept over everyone, thinking in her heart.
I don't know what the situation is like at the top of the Federation now, and how much control the Federation Parliament still has. The final decision on this matter will most likely fall to the Golden Flame Flower Cathedral. After all, they are the organization in the Federation that is truly focused on fighting the dark sun, and all singers are nominally under their jurisdiction.
I have to go back, Tilan thought about it, and then looked at Orles, who was a little shy, and took her hand to comfort her a little.
A month later, the temporary hyperspace channel was built. Although it could not pass large warships, some small super-light-speed starships could use the channel to enter the Sea of Aikeka and travel between the center of the Rose Federation and this remote star field.
The Federation is still under a news blockade on everything that happened on this planet, and has not announced it to the outside world. Currently, the residents of the Federation only know that traces of the dark sun have appeared somewhere in the Milky Way, and many people are speculating and curious.
When she arrived at the Flower Crown Star Region, Tilan met the high priest of the Golden Flame Flower Cathedral and accepted further detailed inquiries. Then she also met with the senior officials of the Tribunal and talked and told them about the situation in the past three years.
After she had roughly dealt with her own affairs, she had the time to participate in the handling of the lost planet.
Originally, with her qualifications and position, she was not qualified to participate in such a major matter, but as one of the only Sunday singers in the Federation today, and a singer who showed amazing strength during the turmoil, her opinions made the senior officials of the Federation have to pay attention.
Blanche alone split the Western Star Region. Tilan's current status in the Southern Star Region is not much lower than Blanche, and she even has multiple singers behind her to support her. With such strength, even those members of the Central Parliament who are arrogant have to treat her with caution and courtesy, and dare not easily refute her suggestions.
In this way, with Tilan's mediation and the tacit consent of the Western Star Region representatives, the various races on this lost planet were saved in the name of scientific research, but as a price, this planet and the galaxy it is located in will be closely monitored in the future. The Golden Flame Flower Cathedral, the Inquisition, the Federal Parliament, the military, and even the Sigma Mechanical Council and the Holy White Melody will send people to supervise together.
Half a year later, all the processing came to an end, and the situation of this planet was announced to the Federation. This was also the first time that the residents of the Federation saw a living new race on TV. They had different forms and were different.
"The last one to introduce is the silkworm moth species." It was rare for Tilan, a singer, to appear in such a popular science program.
She appeared in the camera with a few timid little guys. These slightly delicate lives with snow-white moth wings soon attracted many people's love, especially when they learned that they had helped to defeat the dark sun. More people had a good impression of them, unlike other new races that were rejected.
Compared to other new races, silkworm moths are indeed a bit weak, and they can't even run fast because their wings interfere with the wind resistance. When it comes to flying, they can only flutter a few times and glide. They probably need to be promoted to Sequence 3 to fly freely.
However, this harmless feature makes them the most popular new race, and they appear frequently in many reports of the Federation.
Regarding this phenomenon, some people are happy, while others are worried. Some are happy that the Federation residents no longer demonize the new races, and some are worried that this will make the Federation soft-handed in dealing with the new dark sun and the new races in the future, and no longer be as decisive and direct as in the past.
"Everything has its pros and cons, but for now I want to slowly normalize the image of the new races in everyone's eyes." In the conference room, Tilan told her subordinate team members.
However, even though the Federation showed a lot of intelligence to the public, some sensitive information was still hidden, such as the specific situation of the Silver Wings, Tilan's deeds in raising the Moon Crown, Orles's survival, the artificial angel Loloria, etc.
The information template that people know is that after Heshia, as a singer, accidentally fell into this planet, she discovered the rising dark sun. By launching the brilliant silver star, she assisted the Federation officials in determining the specific spatial coordinates. Then the fleet went to the galaxy where the mutation occurred and destroyed the rising dark sun Celitia through battle. Her dependents, the Silver Wings, were only mentioned in passing, and no image was shown to the public.
As for the official data given at the end of the battle, only 126 members of the Silver Wings survived, and they will be imprisoned for life and must not appear in the public eye.
As a helper of the Rising Moon Crown, Tilan can plead for many races, but for the dependents of the Rising Dark Sun, whether it is to prevent the possibility of another crisis or to impose necessary punishment, it is difficult for her to stop the eradication order issued by the Federation.
This is indeed cruel, but for the Rose Federation, which has a historical responsibility and mission, such action is necessary. Once the new race spreads, it will inevitably threaten the survival of the original humans. This is a painful lesson left by the Fifth Era, and no one dares to disobey.
The discussion and decision-making of the Federation's top leaders gradually came to an end. Although the various races on this planet have lost their former freedom, they still survived and live much better than before. At least clean water and food are no longer things that can only be dreamed of.
Perhaps, for lives that are already on the verge of extinction, this is the real paradise.
There will be no more wars, and you can run under the shade of the trees and enjoy this clear summer.
