Ninth In The World Chapter 1 - Fairy Planet

March 11, Year 2038

This was a day that people on Earth would never forget. On this day, another planet suddenly appeared beside the Earth. The new planet revolved both around the Sun and on its own axis in exactly the same manner as the Earth. It was also a planet most likely inhabited by forms of life.

The solar system’s new addition was much closer to the Earth compared to Mars. Mars had originally been the fourth planet of the Solar System, but after the new planet’s addition, it was now the fifth one.

The appearance of the new planet prompted almost every capable country to send out its most powerful aeros.p.a.ce expedition teams and scientists to explore it.

One year later, after the lives of many astronauts and scientists had been sacrificed, it was proven that the new planet did indeed contain forms of life.

This new planet, which was Earth’s latest neighbor, was very close to Earth. To reach the planet, one simply needed to take a quantum s.p.a.ce plane and pa.s.s through the atmosphere.

China’s quantum s.p.a.ce plane technology had matured four years ago, so it could now reach a speed nearly 60 times the speed of sound.

The reason many astronauts and scientists had lost their lives was the weird nature of the planet. There was a specific entry point that one had to go through. If one did not enter through that specific point, they would be crushed by a mysterious force.

That mysterious force, which was very strange, was akin to a magnetic field. Although the new planet was very close to Earth, the two planets were kept apart by this mysterious force.

The first humans to land on the planet were the scientists from China. They were also the ones who discovered the secret to the entrance of the planet.

It was rumored that, apart from the greenery that greeted one upon entry, the most attractive characteristic of the planet was a half-fallen fairy statue. As a result, the planet had been named the Fairy Planet.
