Mars Base After nearly six months of traveling through space, it finally arrived at an orbit close to Earth, circling the planet. Through precise calculations, this point was the closest to Maya City.
Kairuot and Xiaoli were aboard the Command Ship operated by Fair Connie, beginning their mission to land on Earth. The Command Ship obeyed orders and broke through Earth's Atmosphere, descending like a massive meteor with a great fireball toward the tropical jungles of South America.
It was deep night on Earth, and the landing of the Command Ship painted a beautiful arc of light across the night sky.

The Command Ship skillfully landed on a wide avenue in Earth Maya City, a road that Kairuoka was very familiar with, having built it himself. He clearly remembered the grand scene when thousands of people bid him farewell on this avenue as he returned to Mars. Now, what he saw was a desolate road overgrown with weeds, with not a single complete house in Maya City. Everywhere were ruins, and there was not a soul in sight… it seemed everything had changed.
After more than a hundred years of turmoil, Maya City had turned into a wasteland, with only the pyramid beside the avenue attracting attention.
As Fair Connie stepped off the Command Ship, she couldn't help but exclaim at the sight before her: “The changes here are even faster than I imagined. A once thriving Maya City now looks like this; it seems we will have to rebuild.”
Xiaoli, hearing Fair Connie's exclamation, curiously asked, “Connie's Mother, have you been here before?”
Before Fei Er Connie could answer her, it was Kairuot from the Command Ship who provided a straightforward response: “We once lived here and left unforgettable memories; Kairuot was born here.”
Xiaoli joyfully said to Kairuot: “Brother Kairuot! This is your birthplace; you must commemorate it well so that future generations remember that the Martians once visited Earth’s Maya City.”
At that moment, Kairuot felt heavy-hearted. The beautiful memories from his childhood were overshadowed by the desolate scenery before him. It seemed that life for humans on Earth was far harsher than that of the Martians. He couldn't help but sigh: “This Earth is indeed an alien prison. Such a beautiful city cannot be preserved by the Earthlings.”
“You can't blame the Earthlings,” said Fair Connie. “The destruction of this city may be related to aliens. The Earthlings also yearn for a better life; they just currently lack the ability to protect this city. We must not underestimate any intelligent beings, especially since many among the Earthlings are actually Martians and Capricornian. Although their brains are artificially controlled and their genes altered, who would have thought that in the future they could still create a world and surprise those so-called wise gods?”
Kairuot said, "In this city, we can only rebuild."
Fair Connie nodded in agreement, "We will rebuild Maya City and create another glory of the Martians on Earth."

As dawn broke, the Command Ship returned to Mars Base. All the Martians in the base were busy rebuilding Maya City at the call of the Chairman.
For the reconstruction of Maya City, Mars Base deployed two Command Ships, several mechs, and over ten thousand people. According to the design plan, the Martians set up hundreds of giant stone pillars at the old site of Maya City, on the outskirts of the city, preparing to construct a more magnificent hall. Just as everyone was working enthusiastically, the sky suddenly filled with Belche's Mecha Battalion, which launched a frenzied bombardment on the constructing Martians. The attack caught the Martians off guard, resulting in significant casualties and losses of over a dozen mechs.
By the time the Martians reacted and counterattacked, the Capricornian warships had already fled. In response to the surprise attack by the Capricornians, the star base immediately initiated a search near Earth and eventually discovered that the Capricorn Mother Ship was also on another orbit around Earth.
Fair Connie thought to herself: "It’s true that enemies are destined to meet; the Capricorn Mother Ship appears like a ghost. Wherever our base goes, they show up..."
She immediately ordered Mars Base to prepare for battle.
Kairuot knew that the Capricorn Mother Ship was not far from them. He said to his mother, "Belche! I haven't settled accounts with you yet, but you've come knocking on my door. You Belche, committing heinous acts, destroying my planet, and abducting my wife; we will settle this score sooner or later."
Fei Er Connie added, "When dealing with such people, we cannot reason with them or trust their words. We must strike when necessary and be ruthless! Allowing them to remain in this world will harm countless people and destroy many planets."
Kairuot immediately dispatched two battalions of mechs to intercept the mechs from the Capricorn Mother Ship attempting to ambush Earth Maya. A fierce battle broke out outside Earth's Atmosphere, with neither side gaining a clear advantage and both suffering losses.
Belche realized that continuing this way would be detrimental to the Capricorn Mother Ship. If the Martians successfully rebuilt Maya City, it would be extremely difficult for him to establish a base on Earth in the future.
He thought: "Since I can't establish a base on Earth, you Martians won't be able to either. Neither of us should think about making a move on Earth. Capricornians and Martians are forever enemies, and we will never coexist. As long as I, Belche, am alive, wherever you go, we will follow you and make sure you find no peace."
However, Belche still had one ace up his sleeve—a massive artificial meteorite created by Belzon. This meteorite was originally designed by Belzon to defend against harmful extraterrestrial bodies threatening Earth. Now, he could turn it around and use it to strike targets on Earth, with the current target being the Martians' Maya City.
After several rounds of fighting, the mechs of the Capricorn Mother Ship were mostly inactive. Belche utilized the central control of the Capricorn Mother Ship to activate the impact program for a giant meteorite hidden in another orbit around Earth, targeting Maya City in the tropical jungles of South America.
On Mars Base, the radar screen showed anomalies as they detected a giant metallic body moving rapidly toward Earth. Calculations suggested that its target was indeed Maya City.
The Command Center immediately ordered the nearby Kairouka Command Ship to intercept it. The Kairouka Command Ship quickly arrived at the designated location in space and spotted a meteorite hurtling toward Earth. It immediately launched multiple missiles at the meteorite, destroying part of it; however, the meteorite did not stop its forward motion and continued toward its predetermined target. Kairouka fired several rounds from its Electromagnetic Cannon and finally managed to divert the meteorite from its original path, but it was still heading toward Earth. Fair Connie, sitting at the control center, worried about Kairouka and ordered it to return immediately after completing its mission. Kairouka told Fei Er Connie: "This meteorite is controlled by someone; if you don't destroy it, it will destroy Earth."
"Come back!" Fei Er Connie commanded. "Whether Earth is destroyed or not has nothing to do with you."
Kairouka ignored her and used all its ammunition against the meteorite. Although it had shrunk in size, the damage it could inflict on Earth was still significant. Kairouka had no choice but to use its own body—the Command Ship—to block it!
The Command Ship quickly closed in on the meteorite, using its strongest propulsion to push against the meteorite's speed. How could it withstand such immense impact? They both entered Earth's atmosphere together and transformed into a giant fireball. The scorching heat made Kairouka feel as if it would melt away; it activated the self-detonation device. The violent explosion combined with the high temperatures from atmospheric friction shattered the massive meteorite into pieces, causing earthquakes that were felt by all Earthlings as they heard the explosive sound echoing through the air.
Earth was finally saved...
