Volume III Scarlet 585 Face-to-face

When the ZAFT First Fleet entered the April Plant's military spaceport and stopped there, we took the shuttle into the spaceport. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The size of the Horned Dragon class battleship is very large, of course, even with a huge size of 387 meters long, 163 meters wide, and 117 meters high, it can actually enter the spaceport. However, except for Fan Ke and Law, who left the ZAFT First Fleet with us, the other officers and soldiers remained on the battleship, ready to deal with emergencies...... Although it is unlikely that there will be.

In addition to the six of us, Commodore Kaigo Taylor, who was taken prisoner, and Major Thomas Albert, who was more of a higher status, also left the ZAFT First Fleet with us and went to the Plant Council in April.

Of course, before that, all the threatening items on them had already been confiscated by us.

This is the first time I've been in the Plant Council for Lux, C.C., and Artoria, and it's built in the middle of the Axis Tower, and we need an elevator to get in. Luckily, the elevators are very fast, so it didn't take us much time to get to the gate of the Plant Council.

The first thing that catches our eye is Exhibit 01, which is no longer flesh and blood, only a skeleton that looks like a fossil.

Its shape is so large that we can't help but feel a faint sense of depression in front of it, which surprises me. No, not only me, but even C.C and Artoria were amazed, with the strength of the soul of our grandmaster class, if it weren't for the existence of this class, it would be almost impossible for us to feel depressed. And Evidence 01, it is just a fossil, but even so, it can give us a faint sense of depression, which is why we are surprised.

If it still has flesh and blood, then its physiology is absolutely powerful, at least at this time, we all think that its class even surpasses the highest class of C.C and Artoria, that is, the legendary class. And since it can reach a level more powerful than the legendary class, then its wisdom naturally does not need words, it seems that the religious evaluation is not wrong, it does have a wisdom that surpasses that of whales, and may even be comparable to that of humans.

It wasn't the focus of our trip, so after a little bit of the magnitude of Evidence 01 and the oppressive feeling it gave us, we moved on to the front, the Plant Council.

At this time, two rows of soldiers stood on either side of the gate of the Supreme Council, dressed in green zaft military uniforms, staring ahead with spirited eyes. When they saw us approaching slowly, the men who had already been instructed to take us a few steps forward and lead us into the Supreme Council. Of course, there is no immediate sight of the Council inside the gates, and there is a distance between them, and there are a number of private rooms in this distance for those who are waiting for the orders of the Council to stay temporarily.

At this time, we did not immediately enter the Supreme Council, but stayed in these private rooms, waiting for the Supreme Council to summon us.

Naturally, there were plenty of drinks, snacks, and fruits in this private room, and before we were summoned, we sat on the sofa chairs and chatted about interesting topics while enjoying the drinks and pastries here.

But Kaigo Taylor and Thomas Albert, who were prisoners, were a little restless, and with the binding force of the international convention, they could be sure that we would not shoot them immediately. But the waiting time was a little long, which made them uneasy, but although they were restless, as captives, they did not have any choice.

It had been quite some time since morning, and when I looked around, I could see that the hands of the wall clock on the wall had been drawn into the range of eleven o'clock. It's a little difficult for me, Lux, C.C., and Artoria at this time, because we can't do too much of anything out of the ordinary here, or it will change the influence of my Klein family...... Of course, this can be good or bad, it's up to us to do it.

Time passed slowly, and when the hands of the wall clock pointed to about eleven thirty, we finally heard the summons of the Supreme Council. After tidying up and making sure there was nothing wrong with us, we took a regular pace and headed deeper into the passage.

As the door opened, we were presented with a conference table arranged in a C-shaped shape, and if we looked up, we could see a huge building that looked like a chandelier...... But what is it...... Ahem, ahem, I don't know, I'm so embarrassed.

At this time, the councillors elected by the municipalities were already sitting in their respective seats, and since their father was the speaker and Pakritt was the special chairman of the defense committee, the two of them sat in the center. From our point of view, we can just see the expressions of the two of them at this time...... Well, maybe I can describe it as expressionless? Is this giving Caigo and Thomas a bad idea? I don't know who came up with the bad idea.

As I thought about it, my expression remained the same, and I walked steadily to the bench under the C-shaped conference table, where the light could not shine, and the bench for others to use.

After we were all seated, my father's deep voice came: "I have always done my best to serve the countries of the Council, but the Council has given us only endless exploitation and darkness...... Look at the past, how many adjusters have shrunk their clothes and food because of the exploitation of the council, day and night, just to complete the tasks assigned by the council. How many adjusters have been left unclothed and hungry because of the exploitation of the Council? The terrorist attack in the energy sector, which had a huge impact on both of us, has shown the difference, the great difference between us......

It's not the Council that my father is talking about, talking loudly, and quoting the classics (referring to the historical events that have happened in the plant), but not only do we understand, but even Caigo and Thomas, who are captives, understand that the Atlantic Federation is not the only one that the adjusters are dissatisfied with, because the arguments preached by the Atlantic Federation are real adjusters extinction...... You read that right, the arrogant and domineering US imperialists are not accustomed to the rise of our adjusters, so they suppress and exploit our adjusters from all sides, and the terrorist attacks in the energy sector are among them.

Although I only mentioned it in passing, it had a great impact on the adjusters, but I don't know how many adjusters were killed at the time when they didn't have the energy (electricity) of the colonial satellites, in addition to supplying the necessary energy for the colonized satellites, and also to complete the construction tasks assigned by the council. The Supreme Council's request to the Council to temporarily suspend energy exports was rejected, plunging Plant into a very serious energy crisis.

Faced with this situation, the engineers of the plant at that time chose to strike, but the council was even more ruthless and directly sent the MA fleet to threaten our plant with force. It was also from that moment that the anti-Atlantic Federation sentiment of the adjusters gradually increased, and the call for independence became more and more loud......
