Chapter 511: Chapter 315: The Meteor Shining in the World

Night had fallen.

Countless neon lights began to illuminate every corner of the city.

Between high-rise buildings, flickering lights outlined silhouettes of a modern urban landscape.

On the streets, people hurriedly shuttle between shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues, enjoying their nightlife.

Deep in the alleys, izakayas emitted warm light, attracting people wanting to unwind after work.

In this vibrant city, everyone had their own way of life.

Young couples walked hand in hand by the river, enjoying the tranquil breeze; office workers raised glasses in izakayas, releasing the stress of the day; students gathered to read comic books or play video games, their laughter echoing everywhere. Some chose to stroll in parks at midnight, or to buy late-night snacks from 24-hour convenience stores.

On such an ordinary yet busy night, a bright light streaked across the sky, as if it was the brightest star in the night.

That was Chen Yun, moving through the atmosphere with superhuman speed and strength, trailing a long tail of fire behind him, just like a real meteor.

His figure was particularly dazzling in the night sky, drawing everyone’s gaze.

As the light came closer and closer, more and more people stopped to look up at the sky.

For many people in Japan, meteors were seen as a good opportunity to make wishes, especially among the young people heavily influenced by anime culture.

They believed that wishes made to the meteor as it crossed the sky were likely to come true.

As a result,

Many closed their eyes, clasped their hands together, and silently made a wish.

Some children pointed excitedly at the sky, shouting, "Look! A meteor!"

Young people pulled out their phones, trying to capture the beauty of the moment while the elderly reminisced about similar experiences from their youth, a tender smile on their faces.

Everyone was mesmerized by this sudden yet spectacular sight, their hearts filled with hope and dreams.

As Chen Yun’s figure approached closer to the ground, no one yet realized anything was amiss.

...

Meanwhile,

Self-Defense Space Monitoring Department,

It was an official department in Japan tasked with monitoring space environment and atmospheric threats.

The room was laid out simply and brightly, mainly in hues of light gray and blue, creating a serene and focused atmosphere. A round table in a corner of the room held several coffee cups, some still steaming, indicating recent relaxed conversations.

Adjacent was a small lounge area equipped with comfortable sofas and a large-screen TV, which was currently broadcasting news and entertainment programs, creating a homely atmosphere.

These facilities allowed for moments of relaxation amidst the tense work.

The office area was packed with advanced monitoring instruments and workstations, each equipped with one or more computer monitors to keep track of data streams from various satellites and ground sensors.

On this seemingly normal night, the surveillance officers were enjoying some rare downtime, yet their attention remained highly focused, always ready to handle any emergency that might arise.

The staff of the Self-Defense Space Monitoring Department were leisurely sipping coffee, preparing for an all-night shift.

The TV screen showed news and entertainment programs, everything seeming so ordinary.

However, this calm was soon shattered by a sudden alarm.

As the sharp alarm sounded, everyone’s eyes instantly focused on the main display screen.

The previously calm atmosphere was disrupted as the screen started flashing and updating rapidly with complex numbers and diagrams, showing an unidentified flying object approaching Earth at an astonishing speed.

The monitoring equipment suddenly emitted a piercing alarm sound, the data on the display screen changing dramatically.

The surveillance officers immediately put down their coffee and swiftly switched to emergency response mode, beginning a detailed data analysis and technical appraisal to determine the nature and potential threat of the object.

The whole department instantly shifted from tranquility to a tense, orderly work state, everyone engaging fully in this unexpected challenge.

After calculations, it was found that the object approaching Earth at incredibly high speed was moving much faster than a normal meteor and seemed not to be burned up by the atmosphere.

This anomaly stunned all the staff, who gathered around the screen trying to understand what was unfolding.

After a tense and rapid data analysis, the scientists reached a very troubling conclusion—the meteor not only had not slowed down upon entering the atmosphere, but it seemed to be propelled by some unknown force, accelerating towards the ground.

What was worse,

Calculations showed it was likely not to burn up in the atmosphere but to impact the ground directly.

After all, there appeared to be no loss of mass since it was detected.

This discovery immediately caused shock and panic on the scene.

Faced with such an urgent situation, government departments quickly took action, senior leaders immediately convening an emergency meeting to discuss how to handle this potential disaster.

Lacking effective defense means, the high-ranking officials decided to seek help from their ally, or rather their suzerain, Lighthouse Country.

They believed that as one of the countries with the most advanced military technology, Lighthouse Country might have a way to solve this problem.
