998 On the eve of recovery (4000 words)

"Click."

"Click."

As the nimble finger is pressed, the shutter of the camera rings frequently. Behind the camera is a serious face, and a pair of pupils full of exploratory light.

"It's almost time to break! Miss. At this moment, a thick male voice came from the side.

The owner of the camera turned his head when he heard this, and gradually smiled when he saw the person who was coming. "It's the president. Just wait a minute. ”

The visitor looked at the girl who was once again engaged in the shooting homework, so he touched the back of his head helplessly, and stood helplessly by the other porthole, looking at the void outside.

They were now in the aisle inside a civilian spaceship. Now, the civilian spacecraft is flying along the orbit of the wreckage of Junius 7. At the same time, there are no less than 10 civilian spacecraft in the vicinity of this private spacecraft, which also carry special reporters from major news media that are more famous in human society. In addition, in the front, close to the core of the impact of Unius, there are also detachments sent by the most powerful forces in the human world today, according to the temporary agreement, respectively occupy the various regions that can rush to the core of the impact of Unius at the first time.

"Earth Union, PLANT, and the East Asian Federation, which has emerged in recent years." The president touched his chin and looked meaningfully at the other detachment outside of these three forces. "I didn't expect even the good man of 10,000 years to be added. It seems that our God is very tempting. ”

The girl who took a picture with the camera stopped moving, looked back at the president, and added.

"DDSD is also on board."

The president nodded. "Of course. That old fox speaker would not let go of such a good opportunity to build momentum. Compared with PLANT or association, DDSD, which is a private research institution, is more likely to generate heated discussions and resonate with the people. ”

The girl was silent for a while, and after recalling what she had seen and heard at the previous regular press conference, she also agreed with the president's words.

Suddenly, the president sneered.

"Miss. Do you remember the people you saw at the press conference? A man standing in the ranks of the East Asian Federation, a lieutenant colonel with long blond hair and a handsome face. ”

"Long blond hair? Lieutenant Colonel? The girl thought about it for a moment, and then immediately remembered this particularly impressive man. Among the East Asian Federation officers with Asian faces, the man with the appearance of hard lines and beautiful lines like a carved work of art was truly impressive. "I remember. But I know I didn't introduce his name. ”

"Hmm." The president nodded, but his face didn't seem to look very good. "I didn't know his name, but I smelled a familiar, disgusting smell from him."

"Taste?" The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "When did the president's nose become as sensitive as a puppy?"

When the girl said this, the president was immediately stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "It's too much! Miss. I'm not as cute as a puppy! But, miss. Trust me! The man was a lot like a man. A man who used to make me jealous. ”

"Who?"

The president took a deep breath and slowly uttered a name. "Rau-Lou Kreuzer."

Meanwhile.

On the other side, Kreuzer was sitting in a chair and discussing the current situation of Phoenix Gundam with Maru and the others.

"What you say is true?" Malu straightened up, staring at Kreuzer with her eyes fixed on him.

Just now, before the discussion began, Kreuzer, who had the ability to NT, suddenly announced that the light that was wrapped around the wreckage of Junius 7 would soon enter a period of decline. At that time, it may be a critical moment for the outbreak of the battle.

At first, Malu was shocked by this news, and then immediately asked Kreuzer for verification.

however

Kruzer, who announced the news, did not open his mouth to confirm it, but instead set his eyes on Avril and Graham.

"Captain, that's true." Avril was prompted by Kreuzer and bluntly confirmed the authenticity of the message. "In my perception, from the moment we arrived, I felt that Big Brother's consciousness was returning rapidly from a distance, somewhere we didn't know existed. I can feel the consciousness of my big brother gradually reviving all the time. ”

After receiving Avril's confirmation, Marloue did not rush to give the order, and instead turned her attention to Graham.

Graham, who was standing aside, nodded, reconfirming the accuracy of Kreuzer's message.

"Captain. Indeed it is. In my senses, the consciousness of adults is indeed reviving. ”

After receiving confirmation from the three of them, Malu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After sitting back in his chair, he put his hands flat on the table and looked up at Kreuzer, the Avril Four, Graham, and his returning partner Bucky Lulu nodded. "In that case, it's time for us to move on to the next step. Can I leave the rest to you? Lieutenant Colonel Kreuzer. After all, you should be more qualified than me to support the general. ”

As expected, Kreuzer, who was asked by Maliu, nodded and said in a timely manner, "Of course. So, Phoenix, and Graham, you follow me to the mission room first. With that, Kreuzer looked at Malu again. Is this all right? Captain. ”

Marlu nodded, and raised her hand to gesture. "Well, I'm all up to you. Lieutenant Colonel Kreuzer. ”

"Yes. Rest assured, Captain. After Kreuzer made his assurance, he saluted Malu with the young phoenix team and Graham in unison, and then turned and left the captain's room.

In the blink of an eye, the captain's room, which was almost full, was left with Malu and Bucky Lulu.

After secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Marlu smiled and looked at her reunion partner Bucky Lulu and asked, "It's been a long time!" Natal. How have you been doing? ”

Bucky Rulu also had a smile on his face that he hadn't seen in a long time. She nodded, "Yes! Long time no see. You're still the same! Captain Ramias. Although the ship has been converted beyond recognition, you are actually the captain of the Archangel. ”

Maliu smiled, a little helpless and a little happy in her laughter. "I didn't expect that either. When I was informed of the news that the Archangel was retiring, I was indeed a little at a loss. But as a result, I just had a few more years of lazy time. As a result, he returned to the Archangel as the captain. ”

"Lazy time?" Such words, if placed in front of Bucky Lulu a few years ago, may attract reprimands, but now Bucky Lulu has indeed seen some after experiencing several worlds.

But for Malu, there is a clear difference between Bucky Lulu today and Bucky Lulu a few years ago. This came as a surprise to Maliu.

"Natal. You've really changed! In the past few years, it seems that your experience has been very exciting. ”

"Perhaps! Only when you see this magnificent universe will you realize that the earth today is a little ridiculous. Bucky Lulu sighed, but the next words left Marlu a little confused. After all, Marlu, who only thought that Bucky Lulu was sent to a mission somewhere in the universe, would not have imagined that there would be an extradimensional fortress in this world that could make people travel through time and space.

Bucky Lulu looked at Malu who was in a tangle, shook her head helplessly, looked up and sorted out her military hat, stood up and patted Malu's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Maybe in the future, if you are lucky enough to follow the general, you will see a more magnificent world than now." ”

"Huh?" The gentle Malu seemed even more confused.

"Forget it." Bucky Lulu sighed secretly, then straightened his face, straightened his body, stood up and saluted, and said loudly, "Natal Ramias, Major." He was ordered to come as the deputy captain of the Archangel and ask for permission to board the ship. ”

Seeing that although there was a slight difference, it was still the same as Bucky Lulu, and Malu solemnly returned the salute.

"Permission to board!"

With that, Malu put down her right hand, stretched out her hand to Bucky Lulu, and said with a smile, "I'm glad that you can once again serve as the vice-captain of the Archangel." ”

A knowing smile gradually took over Bucky Lulu's face, and she raised her hand to clasp it with Maliu's right hand, and said gently, "It's my pleasure." Captain. ”

The phenomenon of the Uneuus shock on Earth has long since dissipated.

In the entire universe, the only thing that still exists is the wreckage of Junius that was sent into the void.

In recent days, stimulated by the arrival of the Combined Fleet, colonial satellites close to this void, space nomads, and even space pirates will find an opportunity to sneak here to fight the autumn wind. Although the latter would be overwhelmed by the forces sent by the Combined Fleet, it could not resist the great temptation of the onslaught of Junius, who was rumored to be the power of the gods.

In particular, the mysterious optical phenomenon that envelops the two torn pieces of the wreckage of Junius 7 in circles. From afar, it looks as charming as a mysterious and beautiful sapphire lost in the void.

"Ahh How many waves is it today? Piloting the Hina Phoenix III, the flaming Mayu looked at the cosmic pirate in front of him in a hurry. Ever since the Combined Fleet entered the synchronous orbit of Junius 7, these fly-like space pirates have been constantly harassing back and forth here. This made the Archangel, who was already worried about Phoenix Gundam and He Inexplicable situation, extremely angry.

After several rounds of back and forth, the ambiguous attitude towards the Phantom Pain Force sent by the Earth Union and the Minerva sent by PLANT made the Archangel, which was extremely dissatisfied with this, finally made up its mind to take over the task of expelling the space pirates.

"Calm down! Mayo. It's nothing more than inconsequential bugs. "Fledgling Phoenix, the Wind Sparrow slowly landed next to the Flame Sparrow from the side, and Stella's voice rang in Mayo's ears.

"But even inconsequential bugs are so annoying!" Mayo waved her small fist unhappily.

"I can't help it! Who made those people refuse to act! If they all work together, these bugs won't have the guts to run around here!! Stella pursed her lips and looked at the Phantom Pain battleship not far away, as well as the ZAFT battleship Minerva. I secretly wondered if I should find an opportunity to teach them a lesson.

"Mayo, Stella. Mission accomplished. Let's go back! As the captain of the young phoenix, Avril timely reminded the two girls of the news that they were going to return.

"Yes~" Mayo and Stella immediately responded.

Just before leaving, the two girls looked in unison at the wreckage of Junius 7 below, which was still wrapped in a brilliant and beautiful blue streamer. The girl's gaze passed through the seemingly thin, but actually thick streamer, until she saw the body standing quietly on the broken earth, and the whole body was in a crystalline state.

"Na~ Sister Avril. When will Big Brother wake up? Mayu, who couldn't hide her thoughts, couldn't help but ask after witnessing the current situation of Phoenix Gundam again.

"Probably, just a few days, right?" Although Avril was sure that the mysterious blue streamer wrapped around the wreckage would fade, she was not too sure when it would fade.

"Can't you be more sure?" Stella was a little upset. "If only I were NEWTYPE. In this way, I can feel the state of my big brother. ”

Stella's words made Avril feel a little guilty. Compared to Kreuzer and Graham, although Avril Lavigne, as a native NT, has great potential, she has lacked specific methods and specific training in the past few years. Although Avril subconsciously used her abilities to make various attempts, and thus became known as a "prophet" in the school, it did not play a key role in the current situation.

"Wait. Let me ask the lieutenant colonel again! Perhaps, the lieutenant colonel will know better. In the end, Avril had to make such a decision. She still has a long way to go as an NT.

Cruze, who was being targeted by Avril, was standing in the observation deck at this time, silently looking at the wreckage of Junius below, and at the Phoenix Gundam standing quietly on the broken earth. He was accompanied by Graham.

"It's incredible!" Graham exclaimed, his eyes shining. "I didn't expect Gundam to be able to do that much. It's a shame that I didn't get to experience first-hand the moment when adults pushed this huge wreckage. I believe it will be an unforgettable experience! ”

Kreuzer smiled and nodded in agreement. "Definitely. At first, I thought adults were just joking. It turned out to be more than I expected. ”

After a pause, Kreuzer looked back at Graham and asked, "Graham, do you think we can do it this way?" Just like adults. ”

Faced with such a question, Graham replied without hesitation: "Of course! The power is limitless. The possibilities are endless. The presence of adults is a beacon that points us out the way on the road to the future! ”

"Really? It seems that you are convinced of the possibility. Kreuzer nodded. But a question arose in his heart.

"So, what about me?"
