733 Under the cover of night
By the time He inexplicably came out of the infirmary and returned to the bridge, the fierce battle in the sky above was also terminated as in the original book due to the intervention of the Justice Gundam and the exhaustion of the energy of the new three small powerhouses.
"Commander. That little girl is important? Personally, Malu agrees with He Mo's actions of reaching out to civilians on the battlefield, but when standing on this battlefield that is in the midst of fierce fighting, He Mo's behavior is a bit puzzling.
"Not really. It's just a little confusing. He waved his hand inexplicably, and then changed the topic. Is there any news from the Atlantic Federation? ”
After seeing that He Mo Mo didn't want to explain the girl's affairs clearly, Ma Lu followed He Mo Ming's words and said, "A message of a temporary truce was sent just now. It was said that Orb had resisted much more than expected, so the offensive was temporarily halted. ”
He was not surprised by the news. After all, when the Freedom Gundam was in crisis, the Justice Gundam also appeared just like the original book. The appearance of this plot also means that the offensive of the United Earth will come to an end. All that remains is for the warring parties to take advantage of this coming dark night to rebuild their strength and prepare for tomorrow's battle. It's just that when He inexplicably remembered Orb's next move, a plan came to mind, but now is not the time to implement it.
After making up his mind, He inexplicably said: "Since the Atlantic Federation has been withdrawn, then we don't need to work so hard. Let them withdraw. ”
Malu had already intended this, so she pushed the boat down the river and gave the order.
As evening approached, the island, which had been covered by war, finally returned to peace.
However, on the other side of the island, on the beach away from the United Earth Fleet, three huge humanoid mechs were standing in a triangle.
"Aslan. If you have any doubts, just ask! On the Radiant Gates, which was close to the Justice Gundam, Elica sat in the cockpit and said thoughtfully.
A hint of guilt flashed across Aslan's face, a question had always existed in his mind from seeing Lux in that theater earlier. And this question can only be answered by his friend Kira Yamato. "Elek, I'm sorry."
Elico shook her head, smiled and said, "It's okay. As long as Aslan can solve your doubts. ”
"Wait for me." Aslan was silent for a moment, then looked at Elic's avatar before leaving the cockpit of the Justice Gundam and said.
"Hmm." Believe as always.
Soon, the reunion of the friends will appear on the surveillance screen of Shining Gates. And as the picture changed, Elicon's expression seemed to have a hint of gloom.
As night fell, the stars were above, and the steel warships were not as calm as the sea outside.
Due to the fierce fighting during the day, the stubborn resistance shown by Orb allowed the Earth to unite, nay, it should be said that the Atlantic Federation, which was the main attacker, suffered some losses. Especially when the Freedom Gundam first debuted, the Strike Freedom Force, who was not worried about being pinned, forcibly swept away the Strike Gladius Squads in the attack area. Although the place attacked by the Freedom Forces was not a lethal place, in the subsequent escape of the pilot, it was captured and killed by Orb's soldiers. What's more, on the battlefield where the Freedom Gundam passed, Orb's M1 Heresy Gundam took revenge and took advantage of the great opportunity of the Strike Short Sword being broken by the Freedom Gundam to make up for it.
As a result, the pilot, who was originally evacuated due to the destruction of the airframe, suffered a large number of casualties after losing the protection of the airframe. After all, where they are is at the forefront of the battlefield, anything can happen.
"Damn!" Yazlar slapped the document and scolded angrily. "What the hell is going on with that mech? Don't kill? Or is it pure bad taste? How many of our pilots did not die because their bodies were destroyed? Almost all of the pilots on this list were killed by the hated Orb after they were evacuated. ”
The captain who stood to the side silently watched as Yazlar slapped the documents with a loud bang, but he didn't say a word. There are many births and deaths on the battlefield, and the captain naturally sees a little more clearly than Yazlar. It's just that he didn't intend to remind the officer of the blue cosmos in front of him at all.
After venting, Yazlar's mind calmed down. I saw him casually throw away the documents and say again: "Forget it." Let Nemesis and those three guys fight tomorrow! ”
After thinking for a while, Yazlar looked at the captain and said, "What's wrong with those guys from the East Asian Federation?" I didn't care if they were late, but tomorrow they have to take the battle and do their part to take down the Mass Accelerator! ”
"Alright. I'll let you know right away. Only then did the captain nod slightly, responding to Yazlar's request.
"Wait!" Azlar's gaze fell on the distant island that was flickering with scattered lights.
There are people here who rejoice in the reunion, and there who are angry because the offensive has been frustrated.
Then, in the jungle on the other side of the island, figures are flashing back and forth.
"Mistress Mina. Why come back here? In the silence, a male voice quietly sounded.
"Shut up." A shout rang out.
"Yes." The majesty of the superior was inviolable, and the subordinates hurriedly suppressed the doubts in their hearts, silently moved towards the periphery, and quickly entered the position of guard.
I don't know how long it took for the jungle, where one or two nocturnal animals could be heard chirping, to be completely silent. For a moment, it was so quiet that even the breathing sound of the people around him could be faintly seen.
Suddenly, there was a sound from ahead. It was the sound of a dead branch on the ground being trampled off.
"Who?" The vigilant subordinates immediately began to act. The jungle flickered even more shadows, moving swiftly in the direction from which the sound came.
"Stop!" A female voice full of majesty rang out.
"Yes!" As soon as the hostess spoke, the subordinate immediately stopped and turned back in the direction from which he came.
As his subordinates retreated, applause slowly came from the jungle.
"Awesome! Terrible! He is worthy of being the successor of Sahak. Sure enough, there were two brushes. With the sound of the voice, a figure also stepped out from the shade of the tree.
The faint moonlight fell silently from the sky, on the flat land that was not empty, on the face that came out of the shade of the trees.
After seeing the face of the visitor clearly, Mina raised her right hand and shook it, and the subordinates who were guarding the surrounding area immediately retreated into the jungle and disappeared.
"Long time no see! Colonel He, no, it should be said that it is General He. Mina lowered her right hand, calmly looked at the man in front of her, and spoke slowly.
"Long time no see! Miss Mina. It seems that your life has been going smoothly lately. He inexplicably took advantage of the faint moonlight to take advantage of the faint moonlight, and after taking a look at Mina's red face, he teased.
"Huh. General Toho's blessing has been doing well lately. Mina smiled. So, today, as one of the culprits of the invasion of my Orb territory, what is the important thing for General He to ask me out in the middle of the night? ”
Straight to the point and unceremonious. is worthy of being the heir of the Sahak family, and it is also worthy of being a strange woman who independently supports the Heavenly Pillar in the Gaiden. In this case, He inexplicably didn't make much politeness, and directly said his intention. "Tomorrow the offensive will be strong. I'm going to play too. ”
"Oh? Then, I wish General He a victory! Mina's face was calm, not in the slightest anger at the intruder in front of her.
"Our purpose is a mass accelerator. Other than that, we don't want to kill too much. He said again inexplicably.
"Really? So, you've "mistakenly injured" a lot of civilians today! Do you need me to tell you the numbers? Mina scoffed.
"That's the Atlantic Federation pot. We, the East Asian Federation, did not participate much in the offensive. For this point, He inexplicably simply threw the pot to the Atlantic Federation and Yazlar.
"Really? Aren't you all Earth Union? There is no difference. Mina knew what she wanted to do, but she didn't take the initiative to find out.
Seeing this, He shook his head, sighed, and then directly picked out his words and said, "Tomorrow the mass accelerator will be destroyed." And your leaders will die in that self-explosion. I don't know if I'm right? ”
Mina was stunned.
If it weren't for the fact that the Sahak family pursued a family policy of merit, Mina would not have become the heir, and she would not have learned this extremely confidential information from the current patriarch. You know, even the little lion cub who was silently protected by the male lion didn't know the news. And now, the man standing in front of him actually said this news in Aubrey, which only a very few people know.
"What are you talking nonsense?" Mina steadied herself and asked calmly. But what Mina didn't know was that He Inexplicable, the crossing party, was already familiar with the future plot, not to mention that at that moment just now, Mina's mind also had a flaw, which was seen through by He Inexplicably.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Miss Mina, of course you know. He smiled inexplicably and didn't make too many excuses.
Silence suddenly enveloped the flat ground, over the heads of the man and woman who were talking to each other-for-tat. After a while, Mina conceded defeat. She found that as long as she stood in front of the man in front of her, everything would fall into the man's grasp, and there was no possibility of breaking free.
Mina sighed, raised her eyes to look at He inexplicably, and asked, "So, General He." What do you want? ”
"Didn't I say that? Mass Accelerator. He inexplicably reaffirmed his intentions.
Mina shook her head and said, "Impossible! Now the mass accelerator has already been planted with a large number of explosives, and after waiting for the "seed" to lift off, it will immediately start the self-destruct program. It's too late now. ”
"Really? My request is not difficult. He inexplicably took out a small box from his pocket and placed it in front of Mina. My purpose is the Mass Accelerator, yes, but all I want you to do is take this little box to the area where the Mass Accelerator is and place it, and that's it. ”
"It's that simple?" Apparently Mina would not have believed Ho's inexplicable words so simply.
"It's as simple as that. You can open it and take a look. He inexplicably handed the box to Mina very generously. Suspicious, Mina hesitated for a moment, then casually opened the box and took a look at the inside. Soon, a look of relief flashed across Mina's face, and once again it was occupied by doubt.
This time, however, Mina did not refuse. "I don't have a problem with just placing it on the side. It's just General Ho, why are you doing this? ”
"It's just a whim. After all, the old man is going to die, so he can't bring the treasure into the grave, right? You must know that if you do this, the juniors who are still alive will have a hard time. "What an inexplicable word, it means something.
