726 Interludes (Part I)
The file was slammed on the table. Immediately afterward, the chair was slammed down by the person sitting on it, causing a squeaky sound.
"It's so boring!" He sighed inexplicably.
Although he had expected in advance that the remnants of the Eurasian Federation who had escaped death would not agree to his invitation, he would inevitably be frustrated when his expectations came true. The only thing that could be comforted was that the remnants of the defeated army did not say no words. After all, thanks to Ho's inexplicable speech on the battlefield, these front-line commanders were able to put aside their worries and follow the Archangel without hesitation, running all the way, thus avoiding being buried in the cyclops' self-explosion.
"Forget it. Let them go back to their own homes! Anyway, the Atlantic Federation, no, the Blue Cosmos gang is so pitiful to their teammates, I'm afraid the next attack will make them uncomfortable for a while. He inexplicably temporarily dispelled the idea of letting the remnants of the gang join in. Everything will wait until we return to Kaohsiung Cosmoport.
After thinking about it, He inexplicably left the temporarily requisitioned office. Well, it's worth noting that this temporary office is Marius's captain's quarters.
With the salty smell of the sea breeze blowing in his face, He inexplicably found himself on the deck unconsciously.
At this time, two men and a woman are blowing the sea breeze on this deck, exchanging their views on the current situation. He looked up inexplicably and found that the two men and a woman were Sai, Dole and his girlfriend, Milia Liaria. Now that their fate has quietly changed, these three people don't know how miserable their fate was. One of the saddest is Dole, a hot-blooded boy who spares no expense to stick a knife in his friend's side, who should have died in the previous battle, and he was quietly replaced by Cagalli, a girl who should not have appeared at that time. Not to mention the many changes in Mirialia after her sacrifice.
And the fate of this teenager is even more intriguing. He was the first teenager on this ship whose fate trajectory changed. Sai, who was supposed to be in the green after the advance team incident, was shot after Frey lost control of her spirit, and she didn't recover until the Alaska headquarters.
Thinking about the retirement expressions of the three of them in his mind, He coughed slightly inexplicably, and stepped a few footsteps by the way.
The three people who were chatting turned around after hearing the sound, only to find He Mo standing at the hatch looking at them.
"Your Excellency, General!" The three of them immediately stood up and saluted.
"Take a break. No need to be polite. After returning the salute inexplicably, He showed an easy-going smile. Can I get along? Don't worry. Now standing in front of you is just an ordinary person, not a general. β
The three of them looked at each other, hesitated in unison for a moment, and then nodded. Despite this, Ho's inexplicable military uniform and the rank he wore were indeed very eye-catching, for Sai, Dole and Miria Lia.
He inexplicably found that the three of them, who had been chatting well, stopped as if they were dumb at this time, so he took the initiative to ask. "I've read your retirement application. Not a big problem. As soon as the Archangel arrives at the Kaohsiung Space Port, it will be approved. Also, don't worry too much about the Atlantic Federation getting you in trouble. They probably still have a headache in Panama right now. β
Ho's inexplicable words immediately aroused a warm response. No way. Although Sai, Dole and Mirialia enlisted in the army out of a voluntary idea. But after going through so many things, they also began to get tired of this battlefield full of life and death.
Sai looked at Dol with a happy face and said this and that, and after fantasizing about the various beautiful Milia after retirement, he looked back at He Mozhi, and a solemn look flashed on his face and asked, "Your Excellency General." Can I ask a question? β
The solemnity on Sai's face, He inexplicably saw it very clearly. After recalling the report on Sai and the previous documents on the handling of Frey's mental out-of-control, He inexplicably guessed Sai's problem. "Sai, are you trying to ask about Frey Alsta's whereabouts?"
Sai didn't answer, just nodded. The solemnity on his face deepened more and more.
"I think you should have known the results from Captain Maliu. On the occasion of the rendezvous with the Eighth Fleet, Admiral Halbarton specially arranged for Frey Alsta and his daughter to land on Earth as soon as possible. I think they're still on the Atlantic Federation's side now. If you ask me for the full address, I will need to go back to Kaohsiung Cosmoport to know. β
Listening to He Inexplicable words, the solemnity and worry on Sai's face gradually dissipated. After he nodded, he stood up again, saluted He inexplicably, and thanked: "Thank you, Your Excellency, General, for your help." β
Sai deserves to be a good man. After being green like the original book, I still believe in Kira so much. Today, Sai's green fate has changed, but he still cares so much about Frey. Even if I have been lying in the hospital bed for so long, it is still the same.
"No, no thanks." He waved his hand inexplicably. "I can help you with Frey's business. As for what happens after that, it's up to you. After all, the Atlantic Federation will not be as peaceful as your home country, Orb. β
"Yes, I expected that."
Looking at Sai's serious appearance, He inexplicably patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, and then turned to leave. But he didn't take a few steps away, and suddenly said, "That's right! Question about Kira. I don't think he's dead, but he's probably having some kind of adventure right now. If you want to find him, you may try your luck on Orb's side. β
"Really?!" The three who thought Kira had been killed suddenly asked happily.
"Probably!" He Mono did not say it clearly, but only responded vaguely.
ββββ Dividing Lineββββ
Orb, this peaceful country.
Under the leadership of the lion Uzmi Nara Ashar, the policy of neutrality has been pursued from beginning to end. As a result, under his leadership, Orb became the shelter of choice for many people who had taken refuge from the war. However, at a time when the situation in the world has changed dramatically, how long can Orb's neutrality policy last? No one knows the answer. But the only thing that is clear is that with the earth-shattering explosion in Alaska, the world has changed again, and the speed of change has accelerated.
After Uzmi quickly finished processing the documents on the desktop, he put down his pen, looked up at his deputy and asked, "How is the situation with that machine?" β
The body that Uzmi asked about was supposed to be an unknown MS that suddenly intruded into Orb's airspace a few days ago. At the first moment of discovering this unknown MS, the Ministry of Defense of Orb activated the first-level response plan, and at the same time as sending troops, it also notified the leadership team headed by Uzmi.
As the army entered, the unknown MS suddenly sent a communication signal, indicating that it wanted to see the captain of the Archangel, or even Cagalli.
Stunned, Uzmi ordered the unknown MS to be lured to an uninhabited island in Orb, and sent someone to bring Cagalli over to inquire about the situation.
After a while, Cagalli's arrival also cleared Uzmi's doubts.
Because, through talking to the pilot of the unknown MS, Cagalli knew that he was sure that he was the pilot of the Strike Gundam on the Archangel, and that he had the ability to write the MS pilot program OS in a short time. Such a teenager and such a coincidence made the lion Uzmi fall into deep thought. But soon, Uzmi made a decision. 1. Send someone to meet the pilot of the unknown MS to the Dawning Society. 2. Let Cagalli, the only acquaintance, go and catch up with the teenager and try to find out why he came here? What is the purpose?
Although the whereabouts of the Archangel in the explosion in Alaska are unknown, the boy already bears the imprint of the Archangel on his body, which shows that the boy still belongs to the United Earth. Therefore, it is very likely that the arrival of the teenager will have an impact on Orb's national policy. And the MS on the screen that looks extremely powerful and exudes the atmosphere of advanced technology is even more so.
"I hope nothing goes wrong!" Uzmi's eyes flashed with worry. The changes in the international situation were seen by him, and he knew that even if ZAFT was placed in Alaska by the Earth Union, it would lead to a big loss of strength. However, ZAFT still has the strength to fight, and in this case, Panama is likely to be the next target.
However, why didn't Uzmi think that ZAFT would target Kaohsiung? Because, after the failure of the last offensive, the East Asian Federation has continuously strengthened its defense forces against the Kaohsiung spaceport. In addition to the entry of various new defensive weapons, those MS Mountain Tigers who kept coming down the production line made the ZAFT army in Oceania feel a little pressure. And this increasingly heavy pressure can also be felt by Orb, who is far above the Pacific Ocean.
In any case, Uzmi knew very well that part of the current Obu force came from the descendants of the island nation that had been conquered by the East Asian Federation. The fragile nerves of these descendants have become more sensitive as the power of the East Asian Federation has grown rapidly.
"Is the storm coming? It's probably too late! Uzmi sighed as he watched his daughter, Cagalli, who had become much quieter since her return, leave.
Putting aside Uzmi, who was worried about the future situation, he put the camera on the Dawning Society in the near future.
"This, what is this MS?" Erica Simmonds, the director of the development department of the Aurora Society, exclaimed when she saw the Freedom Gundam. And after she found out that the pilot was an immature teenager, she was even more surprised. "The pilot of this MS turned out to be a teenager?!"
"Kira!"
As Erica wondered, a familiar voice sounded behind her. It didn't take a look back for Erica to know who the owner of the voice was. The princess of Orb, the daughter of the current general representative of Orb United, Cagalli. It is not difficult for Erica to find out from Cagalli's voice that Her Royal Highness knows the pilot in front of her, and she has a close relationship. It's just...
Thinking back to Cagalli's situation, Erica sighed faintly.
