Collapse: Nano Brigade Captain's Journey Across the Galaxy

"Murata Himeko? I seem to have dreamt about the person you are talking about."

"Huh? What did you say?!"

"Well, when was it? It should be in my hometown, when I was in college and studying a subject related to the starry sky. One day, I fell asleep and had a dream. I dreamed that I became a warrior in order to find out why my father died. However, after becoming a warrior, I seemed to feel uncomfortable every day, so I changed my habit of drinking coffee to drinking alcohol."

"Later, due to some reasons, the me in the dream was still a soldier, but I was a teacher of practical courses in a school. Later, in order to save his students from a powerful enemy, he was willing to burn his own life."

"It's a touching story. However, the other me in my dream did succeed in rescuing my student from the enemy, but she eventually... died."

"Yes, it should be so, but Chen Ye really likes Wuliangta Jizi, not just in love. In short, Chen Ye spent a little price and finally saved Wuliangta Jizi."

"I see. No wonder you trust him so much. By the way, you haven't answered me yet. What exactly is his ability? Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't tell me."

"Oh, if I were talking to someone else, I would have to think twice. But for you, even if I told him everything about him without reservation, he wouldn't blame me. Because the person I'm talking about is you."

"Alas, it's easy to feel like I'm someone's replacement."

"Oh, don't worry, you are not anyone's substitute. Not in the past, not now, and not in the future... Well, anyway, let me think about it, where should I start? Oh, let's start with his armor."

"Hmm? Armor?"

"Yes, armor. Not the giant robot I like. But it's cool, too. Although I think if I study for a dozen years, I can build one."

"Then why don't you learn?"

"Because the cost-effectiveness is not high. Let's put it this way. For a period of time, he was called a nano-soldier. Nano-soldiers are divided into congenital and acquired types. The congenital type needs to be cultivated from the embryo. Nano-soldiers cultivated in this way do not need equipment maintenance because they are armor themselves!"

But the acquired type is different. After a person grows up, he or she voluntarily accepts the transformation and then implants the nano core into the body. However, these are not a problem for those who really love mecha. The important thing is that the acquired type needs maintenance, and we don’t have the matching maintenance equipment. ”

"This meant that I not only needed to learn how to construct the armor he was wearing, but also how to construct the maintenance equipment. For me, the cost-effectiveness was too low, so I didn't learn it."

(Note: In the original drama, only Ray and Hela are of the congenitally cultivated type, and the congenitally cultivated sub-humans do not need maintenance. As for why Ray needs maintenance later, I guess it may be because Hela destroyed his core. Mendes (instructor), Torres (Hela's "guardian"), and Gured (I am loyal to Asa, but not to the machine) are all acquired implants. In this case, the nano-soldiers need matching equipment for maintenance. And the only ones who can maintain the nano-soldiers are Asa's forces and the coalition forces. As for Dusk? Not sure)

"This is really a set of armors, so what abilities does his armor have?"

"To be precise, it should be his armor. Generally speaking, a person can only have one nano core in his body! But he is different, or rather, his past body is different from his current body! His past body did not belong to him alone. He traveled into that body, but there was already a consciousness in that body, and its name was Rui Edas."

"He did not intend to erase this consciousness and occupy the body alone. Instead, he chose to coexist peacefully with this consciousness. As for the process of the two consciousnesses getting along, I will skip it and directly talk about the final result."

"In the end, the main consciousness wanted to merge itself into something called the Holy Ark. Because of the disaster at that time, only one person could seal the Holy Ark with his life in exchange for the safety of the world. Originally, the consciousness named Rui wanted to go by himself. But Chen Ye didn't allow him to kick Rui away, and he entered the Holy Ark himself! Because their world had also observed this world before, but it was not made into a game, but into an animation."

"And the ending of this anime is that Rui's consciousness merges into the Holy Ark. Many people in their world don't like this ending, including Chen Ye himself! Although he didn't know at that time that he could still travel through time, he still firmly chose to merge into the Holy Ark on Rui's behalf. Because for him, being able to see this childhood masterpiece and have a better ending, for him, it can be said that he has no regrets in death."

"Yes, childhood experiences are often important in determining a person's life. And the most precious things in childhood will still be cherished when you grow up."

"That's true. However, before they merged into the Holy Ark, they also fought a more difficult enemy. This enemy could choose the person with the highest combat power and copy everything about him, whether it was his memory, ability, or anything else! It was like you were fighting another person with the same strength as you! And you wouldn't get tired of that person."

"He's a terrifying enemy."

"That's right, so the main consciousness decided to activate a necklace left to him by his mother. This necklace has the ability to fuse cores, so he fused the cores of all the vanguards he could see, including the enemy in front of him, because only in this way can the enemy not replicate again!"

"But this also caused his body to be overloaded! And the Holy Ark at that time also needed someone to merge with it to maintain its stability! So the main consciousness whose body collapsed at that time thought that he was the best candidate."

"But he forgot why he came to look for the Holy Ark, or rather, he forgot that there was another consciousness in his body, so that consciousness kicked him out and used the power of the Holy Ark to reshape a body for him. And it also helped him fulfill his original intention of looking for the Holy Ark."
