Serious, silent.

This is the atmosphere of the reconnaissance ship that is heading to Mars at full speed. Since receiving this mission with an unknown future, almost everyone thinks that this is the end of life and death, and there will be no turning back.

This realization is deepening as we move away from Earth. However, even now, when this atmosphere is becoming more and more breathless, there are still moments of relaxation.

"That's all for today's show. Thank you for watching. I'm Akemi Lim. See you tomorrow! ”

As the melodious sound fell, the improvised program that was able to relieve the stress of the soldiers who were able to give the conscription came to an end.

"Thank you! Ms. Lin Mingmei. Thanks to your singing, our pilots are in good spirits. ”

After Lin Mingmei stepped off the camera, a middle-aged man with a straight waist and a scar on his left cheek walked out from the side and thanked Lin Mingmei.

After taking off the microphone pinned to her collar and handing it to the staff on the side, Lin Mingmei shook her head with a smile and said softly, "This is what I should do." Lieutenant Colonel Sergei. ”

It turned out that the soldier who stood in front of Lin Mingmei to thank him was the famous Russian desolate bear Lieutenant Colonel Sergei. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he sighed, "Hehe." That being said, after all, this mission is not yours, your job. It's our military that is too strong. Ms. Lin Mingmei. ”

This time, Lin Mingmei didn't explain anything, just smiled and shook her head.

Sergei saw that Lin Mingmei had a hint of fatigue between his eyebrows, and he remembered that since he set off, this young idol with great courage had maintained a high intensity of work, assisting Sergei and his fleet generals to maintain the morale of this fleet. As his thoughts surged, the guilt in Sergei's heart became stronger and stronger.

Because he knew that civilians should not have been involved in this mission.

"Miss Lin Mingmei. Today's work is over. Please take a good rest. We have just adopted a decision. Before our fleet arrives on Mars, there will be an adjustment to the broadcast time of the program. This is also so that you can maintain plenty of rest time. The guilt in his heart made Sergei especially love Lin Mingmei, a junior with excellent courage.

"Really? Thank you. It's just that the number of programs has dropped, will it affect everyone's morale? Lin Mingmei smiled slightly, then asked a little worriedly.

"Nope. This is not only a unilateral request of us, the high-ranking generals of the fleet, but also a demand of all our fleet soldiers. Although the scar on Sergei's face looked a little hideous, his smile at the moment showed a hint of love. Everyone knows the hard work of Miss Lin Mingmei in recent days, and they have reported to us one after another, asking for a reduction in the number and frequency of the program. ”

"So, Miss Lin Mingmei, you can rest in peace."

When Lin Mingmei heard this, she lowered her head and groaned for a while, then raised her head and smiled and thanked her. "Well, I thank you for your concern."

But Lin Mingmei hadn't taken two steps before she suddenly stopped, and turned around under Sergei's puzzled gaze and opened her mouth to make a request.

"Lieutenant Colonel. I don't know if I can ask you a question? ”

Sergei was slightly surprised, but soon showed a smile and raised his hand to the aisle outside. "Yes. It's a little inconvenient here, let's go out and talk about it. ”

Although Sergei said that he was going out, in fact, the two of them walked around the aisle hill for a while and came to the dining hall. After Sergei picked a slightly secluded corner and sat down, he motioned for Lin Mingmei to speak.

Lin Mingmei hesitated slightly, but quickly said the question in her heart. "Lieutenant Colonel. I wonder if that Lieutenant Andrew has something to do with you? ”

"Huh? Andrew? As soon as Sergei heard Andrew's name, he immediately frowned, and he thought: "Hmm. If the Lieutenant Andrew you're talking about is Andrew Smirnov, he's my dog. ”

Sergei paused, his eyes turned around Lin Mingmei's beautiful face, and he suddenly realized something. "Could it be that the dog is pestering you?"

For Lin Mingmei's charm, Sergei is very clear. Otherwise, the top echelons of the fleet would not have allowed Lin Mingmei to have a special stage for him on a space-tight battleship. Although before, the top of the fleet was extremely opposed to this absurd decision of the military department.

Sure enough, Lin Mingmei showed a trace of distress on her face, but this beautiful singer did not sue Sergei, this Andrew's father. "No, it's just that Lieutenant Andrew and his comrades are a little enthusiastic."

"Really?" Sergei nodded silently and secretly decided to order that everyone should not come and harass Lin Mingmei.

This little episode is not a big deal, but it can be regarded as an embellishment of this long journey from Earth to Mars. After all, at the moment before the fleet entered the Martian universe, Lin Mingmei, who was full of energy and in excellent condition, once again raised the morale of the fleet to the highest.

Ahead, near the crimson planet, the silver-white alien army that looked like a monstrous wave was already in plain sight.

At the same time as the moment of the first large-scale contact between humans and ELS unfolded, Ptolemy II, which was still some distance away from Mars, left a red orbit in the dark void with all its might, which was still some distance away from Mars.

"Didi..."

Filit, who was monitoring the situation in the surrounding universe, glanced at the emergency message that popped up on the screen, and immediately shouted: "VEDA calls!" Ahead of the Martian universe, the Federation fleet is about to come into contact with the ELS army! In addition, in this fleet, there was a cruiser that was specially arranged for a group of civilians to board the ship. And the most famous female singer in the earth circle Lin Mingmei is among them!! ”

"What? Akemi Hayashi?! How so? Kujou Lisa was stunned for a moment, got up from her seat in surprise, and looked back at He Mozhi, who was standing on the side and muttering. The appearance of Akemi Hayashi is an unexpected change for Lisa Kujo. "Could it be that the Earth Federation has discovered Lin Mingmei's power?"

"Let's strike!" Under the doubts of Lisa Kujo, He who had been muttering for a while said this word slowly and inexplicably. Then he added: "Aldesia, it should be time for Dendrobium Lan to attack. ”

"Understood!" Aldecia, who was taking control of Ptolemy II with Lasse, immediately left the helmsman position and left the bridge first. Both the Stamen Gundam and the Dendrobium Orchid take a little longer to prepare for their sortie than other mechs, so Aldesia must complete all the preparations before everyone can attack.

And Aldesia's departure also became a signal for the attack. Lockon and the others, who were waiting in the bridge, also left one after another, and went to Gnaku one after another, preparing to attack. This battle, even if it is inexplicable, Kujou Lisa does not take the initiative to explain, they also know that it is a very dangerous battle. When the time comes, only by being fully prepared can we win this battle.

Kujou Lisa moved away from Lockon and the others who had left one after another, and finally fell on He Mo's body, and asked slowly, "Is this good?" ”

"There's nothing good or bad about it." He inexplicably hooked up the helmet floating on the side, nodded and replied, "We don't know what kind of effect singing will have for ELS. If we wait until the final battle begins, we may be in a situation where we lose half of our chips. ”

"What a prudence!" Although at this time in the bridge, Kujou Lisa and Ho inexplicably said some information that Ferit did not know, but after all, there was no need to say the deeper information on the spot. For example, Kujou Lisa knew that when she returned to this world, she asked the Blue Ship Girls to secretly build several powerful satellite cannons with their unique construction techniques.

"Probably! It's always good to be cautious in the face of unknown enemies. He somehow knew about Lisa's hints, but he still felt that even if he did it all over again, he would still make the same choice.

"Be careful, then!"

At the behest of Lisa Kujo, Ho quickly left the bridge and soon boarded the Phoenix Gundam. The intelligent cube has been waiting here for a long time.

"Confirm that the driver is logged in, and the system starts to start."

"Weapon system activated, activated online."

"Monitoring System Activation..."

He inexplicably sat in the driver's seat, holding the helmet with both hands, silently closing his eyes, and adjusting his body functions through rhythmic deep breathing.

"Whew... Whew..."

Under He Mo's rhythmic breathing, the brain quantum waves that were surging as they got closer and closer to the ELS army seemed to gradually stabilize.

"The test is complete, and the whole system is online."

"Phoenix Gundam full system activation. Master, please receive control! ”

Under the sound of real confirmation, He inexplicably lifted the helmet with his eyes closed, buckled it on his head, and after repeatedly confirming that the closure of the helmet and the pilot's uniform was intact, he put his hands on the joysticks on both sides of the driver's seat.

"Transition of Control Confirmation."

"Bridge. This is Phoenix Gundam. Request to attack! ”

In the next second, Milena's voice rang out.

"Understood! Phoenix Gundam transferred to the catapult. Catapult voltage, volts rise. Control of the launch is transferred to Mr. Tempest. ”

He inexplicably raised his hand to put down the mask of the helmet, and said in a deep voice: "Understood! Launch control handover confirmed. ”

"Phoenix Gundam, Wind, Attack!"

At this moment, the twin furnaces suddenly erupted into a low roar, and the powerful thrust of the surging GN particles combined with the power of the catapult violently pushed the Phoenix Gundam into space.
