Psyphalien zero : the wolf

“We have trained hard for many years for today. For our nation, mistakes cannot be made.”

“Yes,” I shouted in response, along with a group of people standing in line in unison.

"All units are ready to take up positions. We will depart in 10 minutes," came the announcement from the division general. Me and the people standing in line Attach the energy gun to the side of the body and run towards the transport vehicle of your unit. to travel to the center coordinates

I sat nervously, my body trembling, in the back of the car. His eyes looked around as the car started to start its journey. Winai sits with his eyes closed and meditates on my right side. He always does this every time we practice.

Edgar, who was sitting next to him, looked nervous. He shook both his legs quickly and covered his mouth with his hand, mumbling to himself. In contrast to Leos sitting in front of me, he looked very calm. Meanwhile, Mary, the beautiful girl in the unit, really amazed me. Because she was inspecting her weapons and armor in preparation. It seems like she was really born for this.

“We definitely won't survive,” Edgar finally blurted out his worry.

“Shut up,” Mary said without taking her eyes off the gun in her hand.

“That's you, shut up. Aren't you afraid? We're all going to die.” Edgar continued to let his worries out through his mouth. Personally, I don't like Edgar's way of thinking either. He is a paranoid coward. But deep inside I said that if by chance someone survived this incident,

I think it must be this doctor. Because while other people are ready to run in to find But how will this guy run and find a place to hide?

“If you still don't shut up, I will make it stop right now.” Mary pointed the muzzle of her energy gun at Edgar.

“Stop it, both of you. Edgar, you can be quiet now.” Leos scolded at the two of them.

“If it shuts up then I will,” Mary replied.

“Enough, both of you. I can't concentrate with all this noise." Winai sighed.

"You really don't know how hot this guy is." Edgar began to shout at Vinai instead.

“I just accept everything as the Buddha teaches,” Vinai said as he began to close his eyes again. Actually, I agree with what he said. But how many people can come to terms with this kind of thing?

“Did your Buddhist ways help us survive?” Winai stood up to face Edgar, who had a sneer on his face.

“You, this is too much,” he growled, grabbing Edgar's neck with his hands.

“You are too much!” Edgar struggled to free himself from the harsh grip of discipline. He unloaded the pistol at his waist. before pointing it at his own unitmate

“That's enough, both of you.” I used a dagger and pointed it at Winai's throat. and the other pointed directly at Edgar's heart. I don't want to talk. But I'm pretty good at using knives. Because before coming to be with this team I grew up in food stores. Trained to use knives since childhood. And I personally like sharp objects too.

I went to study kendo with Sensei who opened a dojo near my house. As I got older, I ran away from home to study swordsmanship at Buddhaisawan Ninjitsu and many other places. Teaching how to use sharp weapons

It might have been of some use before. But my aptitude is completely useless in the situation I'm about to face right now. Even I myself don't know why I brought these two stupid knives and two vibration swords with me. It must be my habit. Or maybe leave it for yourself to die next to the thing you love.

If the mission is not successful, it's okay. I don't quite understand the reason either.

Winai removed his hands from Edgar's neck and raised both his hands above his head. "Okay, okay, I accept," he said before sitting back down.

“Do you think your knife is faster than the gun in my hand, Phew?” Edgar pointed the gun at my face instead.

"Let's try it, Edgar." I gripped the knife in my hand.

“Are you crazy to bring your toys here? It doesn't really work for this mission,” Mary complained.

“Hehe, it's just a habit.” I turned around and gave Mary a wry smile.

“Seeing your smile really made me lose my temper.” Edgar and Leos put their guns away. I don't know when Leos pulled out his gun.

“Since when did you bring out your gun, Leos?” Mary was wondering the same thing as me.

“When you guys weren't paying attention.” Surprisingly, his answer made me feel relieved, probably because at least I knew that Leos was still a normal human being.

The transport vehicle came to a complete stop before the doors opened. We all prepared to move towards the battle station where we were to be stationed.

“Request all officers to be in position within ten minutes,” a voice announced from the communication device. We, the 10th Wolf Division, formed a line and moved towards our destination. That was the new anti-aircraft fusion cannon that had just been produced a few days ago. And this was his first time firing a real bullet.

One gun takes 5 people to handle. I was the luckiest because I was given the most dangerous role on the team. That is, preparing bullets for loading. And take away the gun casings...yes, really. And it's very miserable, I admit. But I can't help it, my skills in handling these modern equipment are too bad to perform any other duties.

“Wolf Unit 10, ready for action,” Leos messaged through his communicator after we had taken up position at the gun turret. And a few minutes later there was an announcement for all officials to prepare for the situation.

“Do you think we can succeed?” Edgar said in a trembling voice.

“Successful. Humanity has spent many years calculating plans and creating new weapons. Everyone joins together and it will definitely succeed,” Leos told his friend with a calm expression. But I could tell that he was also quite worried. But because he was the unit leader, he tried to suppress that feeling. He probably knew that if he was worried, the rest of the team would be worried as well.

“Whatever will happen will happen friends. And it doesn't hurt to have hope,” Winai added, but his words didn't make him feel any better.

“Girls, you guys really work hard to talk to each other. Don't worry about this world, I'll protect it for you.” Mary shouted loudly from the gun control room.

“Because of this, no one has ever come to flirt with me.” I accidentally let out what I was thinking.

“You want to die before you can protect the world, right?” Mary immediately responded to my words.

“Come on, if no one takes it, I'll take responsibility for you.”

"I don't want a big mouth like yours."

“If you don't have me, how will you survive? You'll definitely starve to death. Even when frying an omelet, it still burns.”

“Don't dream, the ready-made food in the mini-mart is much more delicious than the food you make.”

“In 120 seconds, the target will enter the space attack range.” A loud announcement over the communicator put an end to the deceitful love affair between Mary and I.

“Have you stopped flirting yet? Sweet couple,” Winai said, interrupting my thoughts. As I looked up at the sky to see if I might catch a glimmer of an attack on the horizon.

“You don't see anything up there. The space forces are very far away.” Leos cut off his discipline. Probably because they didn't want us to start making boring jokes about young love lives. 'Cause he always turns up every time we do that

“If it's that far, it'll probably take a long time before it reaches us. Then why are you letting us into our positions from now on?” Edgar complained.

“Have you attended any of our classes yet? You idiot, Edgar,” Mary shouted in a high-pitched voice before climbing out of the control room.

"I go in every time with you. It's just..just the parts that are outside of my duties that I don't care about."

“Like you probably don't even know. What are we doing here? You idiot, Edgar.” Mary looked bored before ducking back into the control room again.

“Who is this idiot? I know we're here to take care of that damn meteorite!” Edgar shouted.

“It's not a meteorite, Edgar. It's a dwarf planet,” Leos argued.

“A meteorite that is so large that it has to be classified according to its size. No matter how big it is, the fact that it will hit the earth, I think it's a meteorite is correct." Edgar offered his opinion.

“Then I'll just call it Pad Kaprao,” I jokingly suggested, breaking up the conversation about the Psyphalian, named after its discoverer. I'm stuck with them as well. I don't know what each of them will be like.

Four years ago, they said that the Pseuphalian had a high speed trajectory towards Earth. At first I was indifferent, but I recently found out that Mr. Musk tried to send a spacecraft to explore it, but it was too fast. Can't check the condition in the near distance. And according to Doctor Saiga's calculations It will hit Earth today.

Even though we tried a lot, in the end we had to make an announcement. That day caused people all over the world to panic. Many people are hoarding food. Many people create shelters. During that time it was all chaotic. But I like it Because it has created something again in the world.

both founding

Zoms company

both founded the world federation Until that time, I'll be really tired. But in the end, even conflicting countries cooperated. Even scientists Or billionaires who hold patents on various inventions and technologies. Bring out your own knowledge to help without holding back. Our world has developed at a rapid pace.

Including energy guns that I thought only existed in movies. Or the vibration sword that I liked so much I had to ask Mr. Musk to keep it. Even automobiles have developed a lot.

If compared with past history, in the past 4 years, we humans have developed 3 times faster than before. Panic, fear, cooperation. Makes us find that we still have a solution. Scientists calculated various methods to find a way out of this crisis. Of course, quarreling with the World Federation who are noisy about using nuclear bombs is very annoying.

Since destruction was their first choice But it has almost no effect in space.

Even thinking back on it makes me annoyed. Until I can convince those brainless people. Until thinking of a new strategy, finding a new way, until inventing an energy gun that pulverizes the target into aether, which is very suitable for this task. But there will still be a problem that our energy is not enough to make the gun powerful enough to destroy the meteorite.

They still haven't stopped innovating and developing until they have even more gravity technology. According to the news, they discovered it by mistake while trying to create a new type of power generator to use with the energy gun. These two things formed the countermeasures. That we all must come together to help on the day that will decide the fate of the world.

If we don't succeed, this asteroid will hurtle through our world. It's like a bullet being shot through a balloon. Our world will shatter into nothing more than a speck of dust in the solar system. As for the Pseuphalians, they will continue to blaze brightly into the vastness of space. And that was a very unattractive ending. Because I will never have the opportunity to eat grilled eel sushi again.

“Yes, that stir-fried basil is very fast. So the 3-line defense plan was born.” Leos started to explain the defense methods....Stir-fried basil.

“Now we should start entering the first line of defense. The Eagle Fleet is probably trying to slow down the speed of the Pad Krapao.” Leos continued to explain.

“And nothing is certain. Mistakes can happen at any time. So we had to prepare in case they couldn't slow down the speed of the stir-fried basil enough. It will get here faster. The last hope will be with us,” Winai explains.

“Are you guys really going to call it stir-fried basil?

o..o”

I asked

“You suggested the name yourself, Few,” Leos replied.

“Oh,” Edgar and Winai nodded in unison.

“Wait a minute, I just wanted to have fun, why don't you two disagree?” I protested, because I thought that calling a disaster that could destroy this world a stir would be too stupid for words.

“I like stir-fried basil. How about our world being fried eggs? It suits you well.” Mary emerged from the cockpit. Ready to send insulting glances towards me as a bonus.

“Uh, please do as you please. But it's good to be respectful to those who experience it.” I could only answer with all my heart.

"I think they're laughing too," said Edgar.

“Mary Winai Few Edgar took his place. Do as you have practiced. Don't make any mistake,” Leos ordered.

Understood!" Everyone responded in unison.

“The Eagle Unit has attacked. The speed of Pad Kaprao has decreased by 10%. Another 3 parsecs will reach the Earth's atmosphere,” Edgar reported from the display to his friends.

“3 parsecs!! What the hell is this speed? Just a few minutes ago our fleet was still at 5 parsecs,” Mary huffed.

“The gravitational waves probably won't be as effective as calculated. Hopefully the guys up there can find a way to slow it down enough. Everyone prepare yourself,” Leos explained. While I just stared at the sky Because my duty begins after the first shot is fired.

“The speed of stir-fried basil has decreased by 20% by another 2 parsecs. The speed of stir-fried basil is still higher than specified,” Edgar reported.

Edgar suddenly jumped up and threw himself in shock at the monitor screen. “Fakyu!! You damned bastards.”

"what happened"

“Eagle Fleet 1, 4, 7, 15, 17, they are taking out the defense formation.”

“What?!” everyone exclaimed at the same time.

“The 7th Fleet, what the fuck!! Don't come back to Earth, you bald-headed bastard.” Mary said in the gun control room.

“The 2nd, 3rd and 5th Fleets sacrificed themselves. They used their vehicles to block it. Compensate for the lack of traction.” Edgar continued to report the results from the communication device screen in alarm.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck,” Mary swore.

“Concentrate carefully, Mary. Don't be distracted. Edgar, you don't have to report anything unnecessary, understand?” Leos ordered, even though he himself was ashen. Still making a strong voice and calmly giving orders Leos is not a bad boss at all. While I was shaking, I clenched my fists so tightly that my nails dug into my palms. He still kept his emotions in check.

"Understood." They both responded well.

“The distance of Pad Kaprao is 1 parsec remaining. Its speed is still at 73%. It is still too fast.” Edgar trembled in fear because of the speed of Pad Kaprao's movement. And it made me realize why stir-fry is necessary. If it survives, this will definitely be one of the first funny stories we'll bring up and talk about at gatherings.

A giant plate of stir-fried basil And it wouldn't be funny if we described it as a meteorite about to hit Earth.

“How much time does Edgar have left?” Leos asked.

“372 seconds until entering Earth's atmosphere.” Edgar looked serious.

“We have to survive to understand. Don't let any mistakes happen.” Leos said words that should help encourage everyone. The pounding sound of my heart told of the fear that was building more and more over the next few minutes. The fate of the planet called Earth will be determined. And I am a small creature on that planet that will be destroyed together if something goes wrong.

“Something is wrong,” Edgar reported.

“Stir-fried basil speed decreased, remaining constant at 30%.”

“Great, they did it. But how?” Leos was both happy and curious.

“Yes, the speed can be reduced in exchange for the rest of the Eagle Fleet… They used their own ship…” Edgar reported with a shocked expression on his face. And so did everyone who listened. They..tried to save the world until the last moment to the best of their abilities. All of us in the unit stood erect and looked up at the sky. and saluted him in the posture of a soldier

Only Mary was silent in the control room. She must be very sad.

“Wolf Division 10, everyone, get ready, don't let the Eagle's sacrifice be in vain!” Leos shouted with a serious expression.

“In 92 seconds it will reach the atmosphere. The counter-missile has been launched,” Edgar reported.

“Everyone is stationed. Prepare for battle,” Leos ordered. As I looked up at the sky, I watched the white streaks from the smoke from the missiles shoot off before the sky was darkened by the meteors blocking the sun's light. Followed by a deafening sound that reverberated throughout the world. The bright light from tens of thousands of missiles slammed into the meteorite.

My body tensed and trembled. Fear rushed in until I could hardly move forward. Its size was enormous.

“It was successful, because it was broken into small pieces according to calculations.” Edgar, who at first seemed the most afraid, now looked more determined than anyone else. Like I said, if anyone could survive, it would be me. That doctor was the first.

“Prepare to target. The target group will enter firing range in 10 seconds,” Edgar reported. While our turret is rotating to adjust range.

“Shoot,” came Leos' command. An energy projectile was shot out into the sky. A 2 meter bullet casing was ejected. Or, more accurately, a 2 meter battery pack that was completely used up. And it was my turn to carry the shell casings away from the area. and transporting new ammunition to give discipline to load and prepare to fire the next shot

1 shot, 2 shot, and 3 Mary did her job with the utmost excellence. Every shot fired hit the target without any misses, as if training with that old soldier would make her even better than before.

“Aw, this thing is too big!” Mary shouted. When the meteorite crystal fragments she shot just now had not completely dissipated.

“Reload the bullets and fire again, quickly,” Leos ordered. Winai quickly stuffed the bullet into the chamber.

“Two more shots had to be fired. They also came straight at us. I don't want to be flattened with this cannon!” Edgar yelled as Mary fired another shot of energy, hitting the target with precision.

“Winai, get started,” Mary shouted as Winai tried to transport the new batteries.

“Mary, stop it!” Leos shouted.

“What is it?” Mary asked.

“Damn it, it's in the muzzle!” Leos shouted in panic.

I climbed up and grabbed everyone's energy guns. After all, he couldn't let Mary shoot another shot. Because my job of transporting bullets revealed things that others didn't notice.

There was a crack in the energy cannon's barrel. If we shot again, we would be dead before the meteorite shards hit us. I tied a piece of string to the trigger and pulled it towards the target. It may not be effective, but the advantage of small guns is that they can fire continuously, unlike cannons. Even though the damage power isn't as great, it might at least be enough to punch a hole for us to escape.

“What are you doing?” Mary emerged from the control room.

I turned and smiled at her. "You must survive. Everyone must survive. Get away from the cannon. It's cracked. I'll buy you time."

I pulled the trigger and fired all four guns at the target before Leos commanded, “Mary Few, come down now.”

“Run, you idiots!” I shouted when I saw Mary do the opposite of my request. She took out the gun that was slung on her back. And pull the trigger to help shoot from the top of the control room. Winai himself tried to come up with a gun. Good thing Edgar ran over there.

"Everyone prepare to take cover," Aeos ordered. Even at a time like this, this guy still has an accurate view of the situation.

A time when everyone is in chaos. And in a few seconds, meteorite fragments would fall on our heads. Suddenly, a strange sound resounded in my head. “We will help too.”

End of mysterious sound A small mist of light appeared. up round energy gun And whatever it was, it made two energy guns fuse together. Plus it has more power. Notice that the size of the beam is 3 times larger than before.

The meteorite fragments that hit the beam of the energy gun that had been powered up for no apparent reason shone brightly. It exploded, spreading into shimmering mist of light across the sky. Small clear blue crystals gradually fell from the sky. Without everyone forgetting to wonder why the tiny crystal fragments These things were not destroyed by the energy gun.

“It's beautiful,” Mary said as she admired the beauty in front of her.

“We survived?” Edgar said with relief before sinking to the ground.

“Whatever will happen will happen. Humans still haven't paid for their karma,” Winai said as he looked at the sky filled with sparkles.

“Uh, what is that thing?” Leos interrupted, freeing himself from everyone's tension. and pointed his finger directly at me with an expression of panic that I couldn't describe properly. I think Leos must be overly stressed.

“Eh, can you see me, human?” Everyone looked at the unfamiliar voice. Maybe except me Because I think I had heard this sound a few seconds before.

A living thing shaped like a human being It was light green all over and had insect-like wings about 1 foot tall. It was sitting and smiling in surprise. On the muzzle of the energy gun I hold
