Bullets with spiral arcs burst out of the rifling and flew towards the body with gold stripes on a black background.

The golden beam of light melted and annihilated the stone flow that lay between the mountains with a devastating force.

A dull knock echoed through the air.

The orange-yellow bullet had already bounced off, leaving only waves of blue-green light ripples across Jeremia's body, leaving not a single scratch.

However, the bullets fired by the 57mm sniper rifle were not completely useless, and the huge force pushed Jeremia's body back hard, and the beam that was originally shooting in a straight line began to deflect with Jeremia's movements. Wandering irregularly through the dense wooded mountains, leaving behind a huge pattern that I couldn't understand.

Although the development was interrupted, it was sufficient.

The blue-black AS and the pure white Knightmare took the lead and burrowed into the hard open passage.

"Damn! Is this going to stop me? Zero！ Jeremiah shouted frantically, and the sensors in the body easily spotted the sneak attacker based on the reverse calculation of the trajectory.

The AS in shelling mode would have been stagnant for a short time, and the microscopic yellow glow on the sensor flashed, and the body shook violently again. But it's still like the last blow, just ripples.

"It's despicable to repeatedly provoke my endurance!" Jeremiah's eyes widened at the moment, and he gritted his teeth.

I saw that in the cockpit, a bright spot like an indicator signal kept flashing, and it was speeding faster and faster. Suddenly, with a long glow of a low sound, the entire system entered a system on its own.

"The mental fluctuations are stable and reach the standard value, and according to the protocol, the system will automatically turn on λ-driver."

"It's useless, hurry up and get moving! Zero… Zero him!" Jeremia threw a hard punch at the bridge.

"λ-driver starts."

I saw that the floating system behind the black-on-gold body piloted by Jeremia suddenly expanded, and the energy invisible to the naked eye distorted the air and fluctuated slightly. At the same time, the entire body began to distort irregularly around it.

If Lukka had seen this scene at this moment, he might have turned around and ran, because this thing had left such a deep impression on him.

Of course, neither the Black Knights nor the Japanese Liberation Front would know about this thing, and even the Imperial Army would not know about it. But this does not prevent the battle-hardened from having a premonition of danger.

"Qi! The 57mm sniper gun and the special armor-piercing bullet are ineffective, and because of this, I hate the technology gap the most! Yagami fiercely ripped off the auxiliary sight on his head and threw it aside, and quickly fled in the direction of the Japanese Liberation Front in Knightmare.

If his goal is not achieved, then he can't let his own drag make Zero's goal fail, that's his idea. He didn't know that although the Energy Armor claimed to have more armor strength than the main battle tank, its attacks were not completely ineffective. If the two shots are in the same position, or within 500 meters, there may be a chance to break through the energy armor.

"What about the losses of our army?" Dalton kept rallying his troops in the communications, but...

"The signal response rate is only 20%."

“20%？ If this continues, there will be no way to restore the chain of command. A cold sweat broke out on Dalton's forehead.

…….

"See? Burnitania! Finally, we can finally fight with you on an equal footing, and this Red Lotus II represents the beginning of our counterattack! Karen pressed the special switch on her thumb violently, and suddenly, the Imperial Army Knightmare, who was caught by Red Lotus, was wrapped in a burst of red light.

As if it had been heated and deformed by microwave irradiation, the metal humanoid machine was easily heated and exploded.

"Good! Red Lotus goes to the predetermined location, where the rest of the people break through, and the goal is Cornelia. When Lelouch saw that the road was opened, he immediately ordered.

At the same time, it was in the rear of Cornelia's main formation.

"What?" I saw an afterimage passing by.

"Ah~~"

The two Knightmare in the rear of the aircraft were suddenly plunged into a sea of explosions.

"What's that?"

"Protect Your Highness!"

Cornelia's personal guards formed a triangular formation to guard the black and white striped mechs in front of them, armed with a double-headed knife (the kind of weapon shape of the UC Warriors).

"Scythe, participate!" The double-headed knife in his hand drew an arc of white light with the wave of the body's arm.

"Of the Japanese Liberation Front?"

"It's useless to talk too much!" A cold and arrogant voice came from the public channel, and the body called the sickle by the man suddenly emitted a burst of hazy ions.

Like a bolt of lightning, the scythe sprinted straight at Cornelia's guards.

Guns and knives clashed, making a tearing noise.

Wutai Buraigai suddenly burst out of the jungle and headed towards the besieged guards.

"Your Highness Cornelia, leave it to us here, please leave for now." Guilford was on Cornelia's side.

"If you lose Her Royal Highness the Princess here, it's all over."

Cornelia was silent for a moment.

"I see, Guilford, go to Point-9 as you go to each other."

“9？ I understand. ”

"Cornelia!!" The two braijs rushed towards Cornelia.

"It's okay, right? Your Highness the Princess! Suddenly, a pure white Knightmare came through the mudslide

The hook and sickle shot out, knocking Blaygai's weapon to the ground.

"Dispatch? Who gave you permission to fight? ”

"This—" Suzaku hesitated.

"Forget it. He is saved. Cornelia didn't pursue it too much

"If you succeed, let me sink here!" At that moment, the mysterious Knightmare, with white lines on a black background, leaped from the side, waving arcs sliding and slashing down in the air.

"Your Highness, be careful!" Lancelot came straight up to him with two MVS swords.

The double-headed knife is like a swimming dragon, constantly sticking to the MVS and slicing towards the key parts of Lancelot.

Left shoulder, right knee, waist.

Staggered between one and three blows, Suzaku only felt a cold sweat all over his body, as if he had returned to the time when he was a teenager and had a swordsmanship competition. Subconsciously using the brisk walking position that he hadn't used for many years, Knightmare's every step seemed to weigh as much as a thousand pounds.

[The feeling of this action...]

When they staggered, the Suzaku and the driver of the sickle were in their hearts at the same time.

[Ito Yakumo!? 】

【Suzaku Tsuki!? 】

……………

"Your Excellency, I'm late!" In the headquarters of the Japanese Liberation Front, the anxious Major General Katase finally waited for Fujido's communication.

"Ahh Fujido, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

"Your Excellency, please devote all your forces now!" Fujido didn't have any suggestion to back down

"Are you sure of victory?"

"Now that our zhan has an advantage, if we can eliminate or capture Cornelia in one go, it will be an unprecedented victory!"

Now that Cornelia has been left alone, no matter how superb her skills are, in the face of an absolutely superior force, there is only one way to lose.

…………

At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield -

[Fujido and the Four Holy Swords' Buraigai, and Ito Yakumo's Kamato, have successfully broken through to Cornelia's rear, separating her from the guards...]

Sitting in his own breaige cockpit, with his hands on his chest, his fingers tapping lightly on one arm - the gaze of Lelouch in the Zero mask never left the radar on the cockpit for a moment.

The aces of the Japanese Liberation Front and the Kyoto Six are acting according to the established script... Nothing is out of their control.

Next, it's time to see how your own - the aces of the Black Knights... After all, unlike the people of the Liberation Front and the Six Families in Kyoto, Lelouch still prefers to hand over the truly critical tasks to the more trustworthy people in the Black Knights - which is also more convenient for him to achieve his goals.

[Yagami's sniper... Failed? But at least dragged the "blue-black" ... Well, as long as you don't get killed before you catch Cornelia. 】

With just a glance at the blue markings on the radar representing "Yagami Night" and its body, which moved in a curve and was obviously being pursued, Lelouch moved his gaze to another place-

The delicate face under the mask frowned suddenly, and without a trace of hesitation, Lu Luxiu connected the communication with the red lotus-

"Queen1, what are you doing, why are you not moving?"

- On the radar, the Red Lotus II piloted by Ka Lian, after breaking through to the enemy formation for a certain distance according to the predetermined route, suddenly stopped in place and stopped moving-

Soon, in the communicator, a fairly clear girl's voice came:

"HUG, SORRY, ZERO, I WAS HELD BACK A LITTLE, AND I'LL RUSH OVER AS SOON AS IT'S RESOLVED."

However, it is clear that such an answer does not make Lelouch feel very satisfied-

"Blocked? The way forward should be fully opened. ”

"Well, it looks like it's the other party's backhand... Tut!! ”

As if echoing Kalian's answer, a "rustle" busy sound sounded from the earphones as the Red Lotus's body vibrated to interfere with communication.

The enemy was in the middle of a battle, and the enemy didn't seem to be as simple as two miscellaneous fish—such a judgment flashed through Lelouch's mind in an instant.

“… Is that so, I see, Queen1, after you have dealt with the enemy, go to the intended location immediately. ”

"Understood!!"

Slowly cutting off the communication, Lelouch relaxed slightly and leaned back on the back of his seat.

However, the nervous thinking in his heart did not stop for a moment-

[Back hand...? 】

[That's right... It looks like we have to think about the "back hand" in the case that Red Lotus can't get to the scheduled location. 】

[But... I can stop the red lotus two type that Kalian is driving... In the current information...]

[That person should be the only one left... Indeed, it is not conclusive whether he has already traveled to Cambodia with Kamiyu]

[It's a pity, I didn't receive the information that the "special plane" appeared, it seems that it was piloted by a conventional body... Otherwise, it would be very good to win the battle of a Knight of the Round Table...]

Although Karen will not reveal that her fiancé is a Knight of the Round Table, she will still try her best to remind Zero that there is a Knight of the Round Table in Area 11.

And at this moment, in front of M9's AS, the red Knightmare is facing off nervously.

"I didn't expect the new machine to be so difficult to deal with, is this really Knightmare?" Lukka spat dissatisfied.

"Damn! At this time, Zero gave me the task..."Karen looked at the body in front of her, which she had only seen in the data, and her heart was anxious.

Is this ironic? Or a mockery from above.

In the unknown, the two began a bumpy showdown....

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

After returning to China, I finally met what I expected....I was drunk by someone.

I'm going out tomorrow, so there should be another chapter in the morning.

(I'm sorry for the trouble cup to work hard for me again, I'm grateful!) ）
