Chapter 9: 'Bright Desert'
Liphonz woke up and found that he was not in prison as he thought, and looked up to see that there were stone walls all around, thinking that it was a stone cave, and if it weren't for the modern bed he was sleeping on, Liphonz thought he had crossed again. "Thank goodness for not traveling to ancient times...... If I wore it in ancient times, my appearance would really be non-mainstream. Liphonz looked at his clothes and thought to himself.
"Are you awake?" A voice with a hint of a woman's tone reached his ears, and Liphonz saw a blond-haired man approaching in the direction from which the voice came, followed by a tall man.
It wasn't until the two of them got closer that Liphonz really saw their faces clearly, "Dizzy, isn't this the princess of Orb, Cagalli?" How could she be here? Lephonz saw the person walking in front of him, and he saw at a glance that she was the famous character in the original book, and it was the hot-tempered Cagalli Jura Ashar, so the muscular man behind her should be the Colonel Kisaka.
Liphonz cleaned up his feelings when he saw the characters in the original book, and did not show the same excited expression as when he first saw Aslan. He said in a friendly manner, "Excuse me, what is the place of birth?" ”
Cagalli, who had blonde hair and orange eyes, said angrily: "This is the base of the 'Bright Desert', and we saved you. ”
Liphonz was surprised and said, "Huh? 'Bright Desert'? You saved me from the Desert Tigers? ”
When Cagalli heard this, her orange pupils visibly looked behind Liphonz and said, "Yes...... Yes, we 'Bright Desert' are the sworn enemies of the Desert Tigers, you were captured by them, we saved you, it's that simple, are you in good health? Well, the Desert Tiger people are still looking for people everywhere, I think it's better for you to stay here, Kisaka, let's go. Cagalli hurriedly finished speaking, turned and hurried away, Kisaka nodded at Liphonz, and followed Cagalli away.
"Am I that scary? As for walking in such a hurry? Liphonz looked at his clothes again, and the tattered clothes had been replaced by the clothes of the natives, and they were still clean. Slow ...... 'Bright Desert', Cagalli...... It can't be so coincidental that I'm here!! Liphonz stood up suddenly, "No wonder this Cagalli's expression is so strange, they did a good job of thinking that the people who came to that clothing store, I just happened to enter there, I guess the people of this 'Bright Desert' are hidden behind the hangers, but the lights are too dim, I don't see it, hum...... You saved me, but you hurt me. Lifonz roughly speculated about the ins and outs of the matter, and said with a sneer.
After sorting out his situation, Liphonz plans to establish a good relationship with the people of the 'Bright Desert' in order to get him out of this haunted place. Walking out of the room, Liphonz found that it was a large cave, and that submachine guns and rocket launchers were placed on the side of the passage, "sure enough, professional 'terrorists'...... This is more than enough ammunition. "Walking out of the cave, Liphonz saw a large crowd of people busy repairing some jeeps.
"Hey...... The green-haired one. Lifonz looked back and saw a guerrilla-looking man holding an AK47 to himself.
"I said, I want to find your chief, I have something very important to tell your chief." Liphonz said leisurely.
"Oh? You guy, we saved you, you still have a lot of demands, our leader is very busy. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, I really have something important." Liphonz exclaimed. Perhaps overwhelmed by Liphonz's momentum, the guerrillas cooperated with Liphonz to the residence of Seb Aheman, the leader of the 'Desert of Light'.
At this time, Seb was discussing things with Cagalli and the others, and when he saw his subordinates walking in with a green-haired guy, he remembered the person Cagalli brought back when they assassinated their target yesterday, so he asked Liphonz, "Are you awake?" ”
"Thanks to you, I was brought here." Liphonz said with a wry smile.
"Hey, so you have an opinion?" Cagalli, who was on the side, somehow felt angry when she saw Liphonz's indifferent look.
"May I ask who you are?" Liphonz asked pretendedly.
"Hmph."
Cagalli ...... I'm sorry, Cagalli is such a temper, my name is Seb Aheman and I'm the leader here, may I ask you? Seb knew at a glance that Cagalli was at fault, so he played a round.
"Lifonz Almark, you can call me Lifonz, little ...... Well, this is Cagalli, right? Lifonz said.
"Cagalli Yura, you can call me Cagalli, this is Kisaka." Cagalli, after all, was highly educated, and quickly recovered from that nameless anger.
"Well, I know everything, since I have been brought here by you, I will not pursue anything, I just want to know when I can leave here? Looks like you're not a safe place here. Liphonz said bluntly.
"I'm sorry to implicate you, Cagalli has already told me about the events of that night, our people have already killed those Desert Tiger people, and it is impossible for them to chase them here, but we have a big operation recently, for the sake of secrecy, I think we may have to wronged you to stay with us for a while." Seb said with an embarrassed face, but those who were careful could see a hint of cunning in his eyes.
"In that case, I'll just stay here." Since others don't plan to let him go, Liphonz is not bored, he has a special contact with his subordinates, since he knows where he is, no one can stop him if he wants to leave, and he also wants to see the characters in the original book clearly, such as Cagalli, a hot woman.
Just as Liphonz walked out of Seb's room, Cagalli's voice came from behind him, "Hmph, you're not overwhelmed. Hearing Cagalli's disdainful voice, Liphonz smiled helplessly.
Zaft Military Department
"Chairman Sara, according to the statistics of the past half month, we have a total of 23 warships that have lost contact near the moon, including five Nazca-class, 15 Laurassie-class, and three small reconnaissance ships, totaling nearly 100 MS." Adjutant Kent reported as he stood in front of Patrick Sarah.
"Didn't you even receive an emergency communication?" Patrick asked with a solemn expression.
"No, it's just that they were all affected by strange interference before they disappeared, and their communications were cut off."
"Got it, you get out." Patrick said tiredly.
"Yes, Chairman."
"Strange interference, in the universe the Earth Union has been pressed against the moon base, it can't be the Earth Union, so who could it be?" Patrick picked up the phone in front of him and said, "Help me contact Salles." ”
Eighth Fleet
After many hardships, the Archangel finally joined the Eighth Fleet, and the ugly things that used hostages in exchange for escape time were tacitly not mentioned by the people on the Archangel again.
A small spaceship entered the Archangel, and a group of officers on board walked down with a middle-aged man in their arms. Under the ship, Marius Ramias stood in a row with the crew of the Archangel, looking at the middle-aged man slowly walking down the ship, Maliu took a big step forward and saluted: "The captain of the Archangel, Marius Ramias, welcomes the arrival of the Admiral with the entire crew. ”
"Hahaha, Maliu, my good student, everyone has worked hard." Halbottom's heroic voice made the people on the Archangel can't help but have a good impression of him, and it seems that this Shangguan has no arrogance.
"Greetings to the Admiral, Natal Barkilulu, Archangel's lieutenant." Natal also walked up and said.
Halbottom ignored her, walked straight up to Kira and Shirin, and said, "You're the driver of that MS, right?" ”
Schilling said with a smile: "Yes, I have heard for a long time the name of the 'wise general' Halbarton in the United Army, and it is better to meet when I see it today." ”
Halbarton smiled, and then said in a stern tone: "Thank you very much for the assistance of your mercenary group, and on behalf of the Archangel, I once again thank you for your selfless assistance. With that, Halbarton bowed to Shirin.
The people on the Archangel, including those who came with Halbarton, were frightened by Halbottom's behavior, and Marlou came up with a smile and said, "The Admiral is right, thank you for your assistance to the Archangel. ”
"In fact, we also happened to pass through, this group has always pursued the union closer, in fact, we do not agree with zaft's approach, our leader is a natural person, but now we are still relatively neutral, it is really because we are too small compared to the union or zaft." Schilling revealed a little inside story at this time, but only Schilling knew that this was just one of Lifonze's plans.
"Oh, so I sincerely invite you mercenary group to join our Earth United, and you'll consider it too, right?" Halbarton thought for a moment and said.
"To be precise, I don't have the right to decide, I have to contact the organization to answer." Schilling said.
"Very well, I hope you make the right choice." Hoffman, the adjutant on the side, interjected.
"Well, I think this kid is a hero compared to yours." Halbarton said abruptly turning to Kira.
"I ...... Admiral ...... Kira was startled by Halbaton's sudden questioning, and was speechless.
"Alright, alright, Admiral, I think it's inconvenient for us to stand here and talk like this, why don't we go to the conference room first?" Malu came out and said.
NASCAR-class Vesalius
"Lux, I'm Aslan, can you come in?" Aslan came to Lux's room and said over the intercom.
"Please come in, Aslan." Lux's beautiful voice came over the intercom, and Aslan's heart couldn't help but flutter.
"It's time for lunch, let's go eat together, okay?" Aslan said with a blushing face.
"Where are we going now?" Lux asked innocently.
"Heading home."
"So Captain Kreuzer is no longer in pursuit?" Lux continued.
"Our mission this time is to find you, Lux, and now that we find you, we can naturally return." Aslan said shyly.
"So, is Captain Kreuzer on board?"
"Uh...... Captain he ...... He went to another warship. Aslan seemed to realize something, and said in a hutter.
"Sure enough, I hope that for the sake of the deceased, Captain Kreuzer will not be too obsessed." Lux said with a sad expression.
