"Solar Storm?"
Meikyō raised her head and looked at the huge, luminous celestial body hanging in the starry sky in the distance, filled with endless energy.
"You're on the moon right now, right? Perfect. Without the atmosphere, it's much easier to observe Solar Storm on the moon. I'll calculate the best coordinates for you right away."
After saying that, Genus immediately used his pen to write rows of formulas on the blackboard and began to calculate.
Meikyō didn't answer, but felt that this way of communicating was very inconvenient.
So he opened another Teleportation Circle next to it, leading to Genus's laboratory, and poked his head inside.
"Dr. Genos, you don't actually need to calculate the moon. Instead, calculate the most suitable observation points in the entire Solar System."
With the vibration of the air, speaking directly is indeed much more convenient.
Genus was almost startled by the head that popped up in mid-air.
"The entire Solar System? Theoretically, it's too far away to see clearly, and too close would not only be very dangerous, but also only allow us to see a portion of the phenomena due to our perspective. Therefore, Mercury, the planet closest to the sun, is the most suitable, but..."
"Just what?"
"Mercury's environment is harsh for normal humans, but it's not a big deal for you, it's just that the distance..."
Genus casually wrote down a few more lines of formulas on the side and did some mental calculations.
"Because both Mercury and Earth revolve around the Mercury in their own orbits, the distance between them is dynamic, ranging from a minimum of 0.92 billion kilometers to a maximum of 2.08 billion kilometers. Based on the current date, the distance is 1.48 billion kilometers."
Genus adjusted his Glasses and continued:
"Even if you have spatial abilities, you've never been to Mercury, so your perception range can't be that wide. Without precise coordinates, at your speed, it would take you a long time to get to Mercury. Less than an hour is unrealistic."
"No, we can do it."
Meikyō took her head out of the Teleportation Circle, revealing the scene behind her.
Saitama was leaning against a Taiseki, looking at a comic book with a silly grin on his face.
Genus paused for a moment, and only spoke when he saw Meikyō poking her head back in:
"We know about Saitama's power, but to travel directly from the moon to Mercury, isn't that a bit too outrageous?"
"It's normal for things related to Saitama to be as outrageous as they seem."
Meikyō thought of all the outrageous things that had happened to Saitama that day.
"For this guy, going from the moon to Mercury is probably just a big jump."
Genus fell silent again.
"Um... be careful when you jump, don't damage the moon. As for the best observation point for Mercury, well, you're already so close, just fly to the equator of Mercury where you're closest to the sun."
Having obtained the answer he wanted, Meikyō immediately removed his head from the Teleportation Circle.
"Saitama, I'm going to take you to see something fun next, do you want to come?"
Meikyō's voice rang in Saitama's mind once again.
"Something fun?"
"Yes, it's a bit far. It might take me a while to get there by myself, so I'll need you to give me a ride."
"Oh, I understand."
Half a minute later, after Saitama returned his comics and drinks through the portal, a new crater appeared on the surface of the moon, much larger than the last one.
A few minutes later, on Earth, the phone on Genus's desk also rang.
"Hello, Moshi Moshi, is this Dr. Kusuno? Long time no see, what brings you to call me?"
"Genus, can you tell me why a huge crater just appeared on the surface of the moon, and why the moon's deflection angle shifted by 1.73 degrees?"
While on the phone, Dr. Kuseno watched an impromptu online meeting of astronomers and physicists from around the world on another screen.
All the scientists looked like they had seen a ghost, speculating on various hypotheses and possibilities. Some even suspected that aliens were about to attack Earth again, and that this event was a harbinger.
"I... reminded Meikyō and Saitama to be more discreet."
Genus pulled up the live satellite feed on his computer, looked at the newly formed crater on the moon, and muttered to himself.
He felt that the moon hadn't exploded on the spot; it had just created a large crater, and the shift in angle was already a result of convergence.
"So it really is those two teachers of Genos? There are only a handful of people on this planet capable of causing something like this. Scientists around the world are dumbfounded. The moon's shift has changed the tidal forces. Fortunately, there wasn't a major tsunami this time, but who knows what might happen next time. You should tell them to be careful."
Feeling somewhat exhausted, Dr. Kuseno hung up the phone, turned to look at the online meeting room, and turned on his microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet for a moment. I have just received accurate information from a friend. It seems that someone thinks Earth is too fragile and is using the moon as a punching bag."
The online meeting fell silent for several seconds.
"Um... Dr. Kusuno! Are you kidding me?"
"Doctor, who is this friend you mentioned? Which colleague is he/she?"
"Using the moon as a punching bag? That's ridiculous! Even heroes of King and Scarlet Ninja's caliber would struggle!"
After the scientists argued for a while, Dr. Kuseno finally spoke:
"The one who started this whole thing was indeed Genos's teacher."
The scientists were speechless.
Suddenly, a scientist wearing a white coat and Glasses shouted again.
"Oh no! Mercury has become a sandbag too! Our institute's telescope just detected another impact crater on Mercury's surface, and Mercury's deflection angle has also changed to zero!"
The changes on Mercury are naturally due to the arrival Mercury Meikyō and Saitama.
A huge crater, resembling one created by a nuclear bomb, is filled with lava produced by the impact.
Meikyō used her Psychic Power to hold herself up and fly into the air.
He was now in a disheveled state, and his clothes were tattered.
As for Saitama...
"Oh no, the clothes are gone again."
Saitama looked at his naked body and the part of him that would be blocked by holy light if broadcast, and scratched his head.
This was naturally caused by the huge commotion Saitama made when he fell with the Meikyō.
If it weren't for Saitama blocking most of the impact, Meikyō's own physical strength being quite formidable, he would probably already be seriously injured by now.
"What a desolate place. It looks not much different from the moon, except the sun is a bit too strong. If you put meat on the ground, you could probably just grill it."
Meikyō looked up and saw that the surrounding area was desolate, with dark brown soil everywhere.
Giant ring-shaped mountain ranges dot the surface of Mercury. These natural landscapes, formed by meteorite impacts over countless years, are the only embellishments on Mercury.
Although it is classified as a terrestrial planet, this only means that its mass and density appear to be relatively close to Earth on a cosmic scale.
Naturally formed life-bearing planets like Earth are extremely rare. Not only is Earth neither too far from its star nor too close, but it also has a small temperature difference, unlike other planets that are either freezing cold or experiencing extreme temperature fluctuations of hundreds of degrees. Some planets are even near-planetary sites, where half of the planet is permanently illuminated by the star's light, while the other half is never illuminated.
Even not far from Earth are Mars and Jupiter. Jupiter's massive mass pulls most Jupiter from space towards it, and its atmosphere not only blocks cosmic radiation but also wears down the last of the meteorites that fall to Earth. Otherwise, Earth's surface would be covered with crater mountains like this.
"Is this all the beautiful things you're talking about? I don't see anything that looks good to me at all. And it's so hot here. I feel like my head is going to start smoking after just a short while."
Saitama stared blankly at the desolate scenery around him, and couldn't help but mentally complain to Meikyō.
Meikyō looked at Saitama and noticed that the top of his head had turned red, like a hard-boiled egg.
"Well, Mercury has been scorched by the sun for billions of years, so of course it looks like this. But the beautiful thing I'm talking about isn't Mercury, it's the one right above us."
Meikyō pointed to the huge star overhead.
Viewing the sun from Mercury is not suitable for people with megalophobia.
Because the sun is so big and so vast.
Not to mention humans, even the entire planet Mercury would appear terrifyingly small in comparison to her.
"What a huge sun! No wonder it's so hot. This is definitely a sight you can't see on Earth."
Saitama looked up and exclaimed in surprise.
"It's only us. If it were anyone else, even if they went to Mercury, they wouldn't have the ability to face the sun directly. Not only are we very close to the sun, but Mercury's atmosphere is also so weak that it's almost nonexistent, which can't weaken the sun's rays at all. They probably wouldn't be able to look at the sun for long before their eyes were burned."
Meikyō glanced at the time on his wristwatch and said.
"The Solar Storm will erupt in seventeen minutes. According to calculations, it will be a relatively minor Solar Storm, unlike those that last for several days. It will only last seven hours. However, those are still Solar Storm that only occur once every few years and are still very dangerous. Of course, the danger I'm referring to is me. As for you... I'm not sure."
Meikyō glanced at Saitama, uncertainly.
"Solar Storm that only occur once every few years? When I read the comic book before, the four main characters seemed to have Awakening special abilities after encountering Solar Storm in space. I wonder if I will."
Saitama felt no sense of danger whatsoever; instead, he thought of the content in the manga.
Meikyō ignored Saitama and began setting up a Spatial Barrier on the spot.
If he hadn't gained the ability to Blast space, even with Saitama by his side, he really wouldn't have dared to experience Solar Storm up close on Mercury.
Natural disasters on Earth are child's play compared to Solar Storm; in fact, a significant portion of Earth's natural disasters are caused by solar activity.
Mercury is not only very close to the sun, but its magnetic field strength is only one percent of that of Earth. In the face of Solar Storm, it is like a person without any protection facing a thug with a gun, completely powerless.
Staying here to watch the Solar Storm is really dangerous. Even someone as powerful as Meikyō, who has already reached the threshold of the Six Paths level, wouldn't be confident if they had to withstand it head-on.
"I have now set up Spatial Barrier within a three-meter radius around us. Any matter that touches the Spatial Barrier will be distorted. Soon, we will be able to witness a magnificent spectacle that no one has ever seen before."
After Meikyō finished setting up the Spatial Barrier, he spoke to Saitama.
"It's a pity I didn't bring a camera, otherwise it would have been a very memorable experience."
Saitama's thought process is still a bit abnormal.
"Even if you bring them, it won't make a difference. At this distance, facing Solar Storm and under the influence of extremely strong electromagnetic radiation, almost all electronic devices will fail."
Meikyō shook her head.
Even on Earth, rare geomagnetic storms can occur due to Solar Storm, let alone here.
"That's a real shame. In that case, Genos probably won't be able to see this scene."
Saitama looked at a solar flare that was gradually brightening and said.
Genos is almost entirely made of machinery, so his presence here will definitely affect him.
"It's about to begin."
The Meikyō also observed the flares on the sun's surface gradually brightening.
This is due to increased solar energy activity.
The Mirror God Eye was activated, Meikyō seemed to see through the surface of the sun, revealing the layers of energy activity inside, as well as the many miracles created by the universe on an even deeper level.
"Boom!"
This is the voice that Meikyō imagined.
Just now, endless plasma, accompanied by high-energy charged particles, erupted and spewed out from one surface of the sun, creating an exceptionally spectacular scene!
This outbreak subsided quickly, but before long, another one broke out!
This is perhaps the most spectacular sight in the Solar System!
On average, the sun's surface erupts once every three to five minutes.
The magnificent scene was reflected in the Rinnegan. In the vision of the Mirror God Eye, Meikyō had completely immersed his mind in this indescribable scene.
Even if it weren't for the Meikyō of Myokyo, who possesses the Rinnegan, even someone as carefree as Saitama wouldn't speak in his consciousness. He would simply raise his head and stare blankly.
Even he was shocked at this moment.
This is a scene that people living on Earth will never, ever witness.
It can have a profound impact on the soul of every living being.
Meikyō's mind raced, and before she knew it, she felt a slight stinging pain in her eyes.
The second time, tears of blood flowed from the Rinnegan.
