"Our mission is to break through from the flanks and directly attack the Fukuoka base that the other side has looted?" Luca, who was sitting in the cockpit, confirmed boredly.

"That's right, the Chinese Federation is under the banner of Atsushi Sawazaki and his gang, as long as this big banner falls, the new Japanese government will collapse, and the Chinese Federation will have no excuse to continue to intervene."

It was Lloyd who answered him, and despite the Frankenstein's indifference to many things, that doesn't mean he doesn't understand them.

"But what if there is a strong organization that continues to receive? It's like," Lukka said in a playful tone.

"Black Knights."

"Well, it's not impossible for the Black Knights to cooperate with Sawazaki and the gang." Lloyd looked down in thought.

Even if Sawasaki Tsutoshi falls, as long as the Black Knights can stand up, they will immediately be regarded as a lifesaver by the Chinese Federation and hold on tightly.

Although the Black Knights are not as orthodox as Atsushi Sawazaki in terms of righteousness, as the largest resistance organization in District 11 and the most supported by the people of District 11, it will be better than Atsushi Sawazaki in terms of cohesion.

"Wouldn't it be better if the flies are all together?" Monica's cold voice came.

"I see," Luca and Lloyd nodded at the same time.

As Monica said, what is it that a terrorist organization like the Black Knights has never been able to eradicate?

Because of the large number of flies and their flexibility, although it is not necessary for a large person to kill a fly, the key is that the flies can only be swatted one by one. Over time, anyone will feel endless and annoying. This is the relationship between the vast empire and the numerous terrorist groups in Region 11.

Since the Black Knights have the ability to bring flies together, why not? This is an expression of the Empire's absolute confidence in its own strength.

'Boom Boom'

At this moment, with a dull roar, the people in the battleship only felt a tremor in the hull.

"Enemy anti-aircraft artillery." Radar observers on the bridge reported.

"How did you get to this position? Shouldn't warships be allowed to cruise around the perimeter of enemy lines? Cecil looked at his watch and said suspiciously.

"Rest assured, this level of artillery can't penetrate the ship's light shield. Besides, it's not the same as rushing over later, it's better to pass now. "Listening to Lloyd's tone, it is clear that he gave this order.

"It's too unscrupulous, the ship's main gun hasn't been repaired yet, and with the secondary weapons on it, even if it rushes over now, it won't have much effect."

As if in response to Cecil's words, there was an unhurried alarm from the bridge.

"Anti-aircraft missiles are approaching! The number of 12, cruise missiles launched from the Fukuoka base! ”

"Ahhh~~The air defense is excellent~~"

"Open the barrage!" Compared with Lloyd's frivolous attitude, Cecil was much more solemn.

The ship's smooth hull unfurled, rows of two-mounted machine guns rose from below, and an orange-yellow granular glow suddenly filled the ship's surroundings.

Even though the defensibility of the light shield had been verified with Lancelot, Cecil was still unsure of this cruise missile. After all, Lancelot is only a single weapon and is not yet eligible for the baptism of cruise missiles. Besides, the shield of light is not all-encompassing.

'Boom~Boom~Boom~'

Soon several huge flames burst into the air, while the other two broke through the barrage and crashed into the bottom of the battleship. In the light of the explosion, a faint green flash loomed.

"Confirmation of the bombing, the enemy air ship has been broken!" At the Fukuoka base, the non-commissioned officer of the Chinese Federation reported to the commander of the Liaodong Military District and Atsushi Sawasaki.

"Humph! What about a floating ship? It's just a toy for sensationalism. Atsushi Sawazaki was dismissive but excited. Being able to break through the new equipment of the empire, this honor is not as inconspicuous as he says.

"Huh?"

However, on the radar, the icon representing the floating ship did not disappear, but continued to move forward.

"The defense change value is 0.6, and the shield generator is functioning normally."

"It seems that the automatic aiming system of the anti-aircraft gun still needs to be adjusted~" Lloyd said proudly.

"The two cruise missiles caused a 0.6 variety, and it seems that the effect is not as good as expected." Cecil spoke with a hint of disappointment.

"Alas" After sighing softly again, Cecil collected his mood.

"Lancelot, get ready to ship."

The upper deck of Ramus rises slightly, revealing a passage with layers of glitter.

"So, I'll go first." Suzaku in Lancelot says to Lukka and Monica.

"It's okay to let you have 10 minutes, otherwise you may not be able to make it when the battle is over, and it is not honorable to be said that the Knights of the Round Table bully." Luca's voice sounded over the radio with a joking tone.

"Huh," Suzaku chuckled.

"Lancelot, ME· Boost。 ”

"Lancelot, Ship!"

"Departure ship!"

The moment the body ejected out, a small arc of static electricity shone from the exit of the channel.

"Speed: 500 km, 550 km, 580 km, 600 km, 610 km, 623 km," Cecil whispered to the reader, the data displayed on the instrument.

"Cruising speed 623 km." After the speed was constant, Cecil said to Lloyd.

"If a humanoid wants to fly, it has a big problem with aerodynamics. Although the goal of flight was finally achieved with the help of the levitation system, it was good to be able to have this speed. Lloyd is still happy with the stats so far, which is slightly faster than he expected. (In the Lelouch world, the speed of airplanes is generally not high.) In the real world, the cruising speed of most conventional bombers in service generally ranges from 480 to 800 kilometers. ）

"I hope there aren't any problems with maneuvering, after all, the floating system is not an anti-gravity device, and under the wind pressure generated by this speed, Lancelot's movement will be greatly affected."

"Sister Cecil, when are we leaving?" Luca's avatar suddenly jumped out and asked cautiously at the two of them.

"Ahra, didn't you say, let him 10 minutes?" A gentle smile on Cecil's face flashed a slight black for some reason.

"Huh!? You can't take it seriously, do you!? ”

"Could it be that the Knights of the Round Table want to go back on their word?"

"That's right, if Keno knows it, maybe I'll come to talk to you about the character of a knight of the Round Table. As for Aniah"

I saw Monica, who interjected, had a blank face, a three-nothing expression, and spit out low and short words from her mouth.

"Such a Luca hate"

"Please don't learn it, it's scary! Why do I think she's here? Luca, who seemed to see the three-no girl in front of him, couldn't help but shudder. (Monica and Ania's CVs are both Goto Eizo~~233)

"However, the Fukuoka base is less than 150 kilometers away. If he is allowed to fly at this speed, in 10 minutes, I'm afraid Lancelot will have to bear the pressure of the entire Fukuoka base on his own. Monica, who had teased Luca enough, suddenly changed her tone.

(I checked the map and looked at it in combination with the illustrations given in the animation.) The location where Lancelot's ejection was over the Saga Seki Peninsula, and the Fukuoka base was supposed to be in the port of Hakata in Fukuoka City. The distance between the two places is 147 kilometers in a straight line, and with the Lancelot is the arc, the distance is about 151 kilometers. ）

There is no need to say more, just to explain the current situation, and I believe everyone knows what to choose.

“YF－0，SV－51。 Ejection ready! ”

"It's finally time for this moment!" Lukka excitedly began to activate the warplane's instruments.

"By the way, what should Cao Rui do?"

"What does it matter to us whether he lives or dies? It's easiest to just do it. Monica said in a cold tone.

"Hey~~ The Chinese Federation has a good face"

"I'm not loyal to those eggless guys in the Chinese Federation, what do I care about their face? Now, what I want most is Atsushi Sawasaki's head. ”

"It's not easy to do~~ I want it too," Lukka looked distressed.

"Suzaku wants to be alive too," Monica said casually.

"It's not easy to compete, and the number of people has become more and more unconscious." Lukka smiled playfully and whistled.

"YF-0, road cleared." Cecil's voice rang out in the communication.

"Then I'll go first!" Lukka looked through the window, put his fingers together, and made a gesture to Monica to take a step ahead.

Purple tail flames erupted, and the shadow of the white-backed pink veins left a long trail in the air under the moonlight.

"Absolute speed, but my side has to win." Monica smiled nonchalantly.

Immediately after, a red light and shadow flew out of the battleship and disappeared into the night sky.
