"They asked the captain and Lieutenant Harman to deploy the nuclear bomb?! What are they thinking?! After receiving the signal from the returning advance troops, K59, sitting in the cockpit, couldn't help but curse.

"Give me the task to focus on your immediate situation, the anti-air forces are already very nervous, don't let this ship hold out to the security line!" The voice of the captain of one of the battleships in New Zeon's observation fleet was heard in the communication loop.

“K！！！”

With the shouts of his comrades, a Giraldoga activated the beam Gatling in his hand, and the rainstorm of light bombs smashed towards the head of the Imperial Valkyrie-type MS, so that the Valkyrie, who could directly confront the main firearms of the Zeon Army and the Federation Army, had to raise her shield to defend. Taking advantage of the moment when the enemy's vision was obscured, the floating cannon released by K59 unleashed a viper-like attack from the enemy's feet, and the particle beam, which was originally not powerful enough for the enemy, cunningly burrowed into the gap between the Valkyrie's skirt armor and leg joints, causing a small explosion.

The Valkyrie, who was attacked to the jet port used to balance the movement of the fuselage, shook her body involuntarily, exposing her back, which should have been covered by her colleagues, and a Girazuru who seized the opportunity quickly activated the rocket launcher in her hand, and the rocket, which was originally short in the chamber and lacked speed, roared under the acceleration of the MS that dived towards the target, and instantly smashed near the jet port behind the target.

But the Imperial Army, who had no concept of panic at all, quickly grasped the direction in the rotation, activated one of the main jets that were still working, and tried to get back under the cover of his colleagues.

"You keep it there honestly!" With a roar of rage, the floating cannon cut out of the encirclement, spraying beams from all angles in an attempt to block the enemy's route.

The first beam of particles shot out and smashed into the desperate armor, and it didn't do anything; The second, the third... The Reinforcement, who has gained the ability to command weapons from the enhancement, sees helplessly as his weapon fails to accomplish anything, while the enemy flees back unharmed. And his comrades, who have already wielded a tomahawk filled with blades filled with GN particles, will be forced into the enemy's circle of fire.

It was Fairwood's MS, the father of three---- watching the MS rush towards its target with a tomahawk in his hand, and the thought crossed the mind of the New Zeon Reinforcement.

[These damn useless weapons, if there are weapons with higher power] ...

"Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!h The feeling of powerlessness in his heart came to his mind like magma, melting through the skull, causing K59 to roar in a terrible way.

The Valkyrie's movements slowed suddenly, and Gilazurlu, who had been given the opportunity, swung a tomahawk powered by a makeshift GN capacitor and slashed at the Valkyrie's waist.

"Just now... What is that...?! As if something had suddenly been gone, K59, who had been light, gasped and questioned himself.

"That's what these guys fear most in this war, it's not GN particles, it's not weapons made of steel," the voice said from the communication loop, "so those two guys are going to be fine." ”

"Those two guys are going to be fine," said Gulen, who was observing the battlefield somewhere in the Imperial fleet. Gast muttered, "At least not yet." ”

"Did you already know?" Behind him, Alice's holographic projection raised a faint question.

"Know what?" Gulen didn't look back.

"The Imperial Military Department sent an order through me to order the MS of the 29th Frontier Hunting Team to go and encircle and suppress the enemy who destroyed the meteorite's whereabouts, but the 29th Unit was also ordered to go to strengthen the 20th Ranger Team of the order and all refused to participate in the battle due to the highest security order," Alice waved her hand, and the data was projected in front of Gulen's eyes, "Those two individuals are emitting an induction wave that exceeds the Empire's highest alert standard of 12 levels, and any troops that come into contact will be [contaminated]." ”

"And then?" The Warlord of the Empire shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent.

"The 50 nuclear attack planes they carry can de-threaten at least 60 percent of deadly meteorites, and if they follow the data we send them, that number can be increased a little bit." Alice took a few steps on her non-existent feet, dangling silently at Gulen's side.

"So you sent out the data," Gulen turned his head and looked at Alice, "The guys from the military department are going to make a fuss, after all, the Battle Lord is violating the restrictions of the permission code." ”

"It's worth doing everything for that goal, wait, there's something out of the ordinary."

"What's the situation?"

"Deep space observations have detected a fleet approaching the Earth-Moon system, Code: ZR1."

"Those guys, what are you trying to do at this time," Gulengast frowned, "pick me up their leader." ”

"Stand-by," Alice nodded, "the communication loop is established, and the line 3, 2, 1 is connected." ”

"Anabel. Cardo, what are you trying to do here? "Gulen. Gast threw his own question directly at the other party.

"Our technicians have come to a different conclusion than yours, the conclusion about [balance], and if you don't cancel some of the fighting, everything will fall apart."

"You have lived up to my expectations."

"What?!"

"Sure enough, after carrying different weights, the former Kadodazo has also changed, and I understand your concerns, but before you and I discuss the next course of action," Gulen turned his gaze to Earth again, "We have to see how the federal government reacts." ”

"Is this a terrible picture?" In the basement of Dhaka, in the makeshift emergency chamber of the Earth Federation Parliament, a member of the council muttered as he looked at the screen display.

The screen shows the horror of the town near the Amazon River, hit by the debris of the battle in falling space and the fragments of small meteorites that arrived earlier, where the sky has turned a hazel color like dust and rust and dust and blood, and it is unclear whether it is because of the dust left behind by the impact, or whether the people who have been suddenly deprived of their lives will not leave because they cannot understand their death.

The next image shown was that the wounded had been lined up in the hallway hospital, a tragic sight that some legislators from the military almost thought it was a field hospital rather than a town hospital.

"There's really an unpleasant smell coming out of it."

Some councillors sighed like this, which made Katagiri Homer, who was left on the ground because he supervised the change of GN weapons, curse in his heart [That is called the breath of defeat, of course you feel unfamiliar].

"But this war also clearly pointed out that the crisis of the earth's sphere is still very large, and if we promote the strengthening of the army, some losses can be easily recovered."

Some lawmakers said this, which made Katagiri Homer feel even more powerless but disgusted; At this time, the TV turned out to be arrested by some people who were charged with [providing coordinates to the enemy], Katagiri glanced at that picture, and found that the screen showed Ouyang Heavy Industries' building--- the front of the corporate headquarters was full of cars, and investigators were entering and exiting...

"Such a war is not enough to stop the gears of money and all the power", such pessimistic thoughts make Katagiri recall how he spread bribes among various government agencies in order to climb the disintegration of the army's power. Just when the Admiral of A-Laws fell into a vague sadness, his adjutant suddenly leaned over and whispered in his ear:

"The Queen's widow has woken up."

Katagiri Homer felt a shock in his heart, but he still restrained his impulse and slowly stood up, and then took leave of absence from the conference room with the moderator of the meeting under the pretext of military urgency.

"Report." As soon as he walked to the lounge next to him, Katagiri immediately turned his head and asked.

"Seven minutes ago, the sole survivor of the Queen Belfast woke up, and he," Katagiri's lieutenant pondered his words, "and he uttered some troubling information. ”

"Who is this survivor?" Katagiri sat down.

"A federal officer, arrested on charges of fornication with New Zeon, was chosen to be one of the felons who experimented with the Queen Belfast, a mobile prison, the unlucky fellow, named Rajev. Haddon. ”

"How did a prisoner survive?"

"His survival proved that the cell was very strong, that the explosion of the submarine did not damage the walls of his cell, and that he was there until help came."

"Did he provide any information?"

"Uh, some, very," Katagiri's lieutenant scratched his head in annoyance, "Weird information." ”

"Weird, how weird?" Katagiri glanced at her lieutenant in displeasure.

"Just tell him and you'll know, connect."

The screen of the communication channel flickered, and a Caucasian male in a federal prison uniform appeared on the screen, and a hoarse voice was heard:

"Is this thing open?"

"This is Katagiri Homer, the channel has been opened, please say what you want to say."

"I know you're planning to use all your interceptor fire to intercept the falling debris." Rajev's first words made Katagiri Homer almost jump straight to his feet.

"How do you know?!" Katagiri clutched the armrest of the chair, the green tendons on the back of his hand exposed--- how a prisoner who had been in confinement had learned about the topic that had been discussed in the meeting only five minutes earlier.

"This guy said that half an hour ago," Katagiri's lieutenant threw out a bombshell speech, "and everyone thought he was talking crazy, at least until now... ”

"Maybe you'll hear what I have to say, General." Rajev still had his head down, his hands rubbing together in front of him.

"Say."

"I don't know if that's what you're planning, because that's just what I see you doing in their plans, and if you're really doing that, then all I can say is," Rajev paused, "General, everything the Federation is doing is going according to the enemy's plan. ”

"How do you know what the enemy is predicting about us?"

"I don't know what happened when that vital prisoner of yours [died], but I think I got in touch with that man's [mind] and saw their plan."

"You're a new human?!"

"I wasn't the last time I had a military physical exam." Rajev shook his head with a wry smile.

"What do you see?"

"Most of them are vague, dream-like, some are unusually clear, like the next Federacy's interception plan," Rajev pondered, "I'm not sure... ”

"Say one by one, say what you can describe, soldier."

It seemed that the general's way of pacifying the soldiers worked, or maybe it was something else, Rajev took a deep breath and calmed down for a moment before speaking:

"The first thing I saw was that I thought it was something at the core, something that guides these people ... Something ... It's like something imprinted in the mind, in the mind ... ”

"It's like reinforcing the spiritual instructions in people's minds?"

"No, no, no, I have a feeling that it's not that simple, although I don't know why I feel this way, but it's not so... Simple or shallow things, that's something deeper, like human ... Just as all people are hungry ... ”

"Instinct?"

"No, not instinct, if I had to describe it," Rajev seemed to suddenly firm, "like a command engraved in his soul." ”

"Explain?"

"Soldiers have been trained for years to obey orders, even if they go against human instinct, but these ... Guys don't have that problem, because there's something that's engraved in their heads... ”

"We've seen this kind of behavior, and some of the performances of these fighters are already known intelligence." Katagiri felt as if she was relieved.

"Do you know what kind of core is supporting their behavior?"

"Core?"

"yes, I guess that's the most critical thing I saw."

A core guiding ideology, a core order, Katagiri was silent, indeed, he also felt that such a thing must exist, it is impossible to act without a reason and without a purpose, and the enemy in front of him should be no exception. Just as he was thinking, Rajev. Hatton's voice came again:

"[A future that no longer needs to be prayed for], that's the core."

"A future that no longer needs to be prayed for, what。。。。。。 What does that mean? Katagiri Homer felt like he had a card in his head.

"I don't know, but I do know that if the Federation really uses all the interceptor firepower at its disposal to intercept those falling meteorites, the enemy will soon take the next step, a move based on the fact that the Federation's interceptor firepower has been weakened."

“。。。。。。。。。。。。。 So did you see that move? ”

"No, it's vague... Rajev shook his head.

"In short, the next step is to ask Commander Cardo to cooperate after the Federation has consumed the interception firepower." Gulen. After Gast finished speaking, he cut off the communication.

"The results of the scan are out," Alice, who had been standing on her side beside Gulen, projected a piece of data, "and he destroyed or deviated 63% of the meteorite with the warhead containing mass, which was exactly within the permissible range. ”

"Very well," Gulen looked at the thunder that danced in the dark universe in the distance, as if watching the flash in the dark clouds on a dark rainy night, "It's almost ... It's almost there... The world that does not exist without the concept of Prayer is a world that does not need to exist. ”
