"Based on the above, if this ship is to complete this mission, it must capture this base before our new friends do." Arthur, who was standing on the podium, put away his right hand on the electronic map and ended the explanation of the mission.

After Arthur, Taria, who was sitting on the side of the podium, stood up and took Arthur's place.

"Everyone. Although this task is quite chaotic, it is undeniable that we are far behind. And even if I don't admit it, I'm sure some of you have guessed the meaning behind this mission. ”

Talia paused, stepped over to the podium, and raised her hand to press a button on the table. The digital map was immediately replaced by a video.

I saw that the video shown on the screen was taken on the edge of a tropical rainforest.

A large number of civilians, with large and small scars all over their bodies, with the help of medical personnel wearing United Earth uniforms, entered the field hospital set up not far away in an orderly manner.

"What is this?" Luna Maria looked at the mother and son covered in blood on the screen.

"These are civilians found in the depths of a neutral country in Southeast Asia a few days ago after Earth United dismantled an important stronghold of the Alliance for the Renewal of Human Destiny that had entrenched there. According to the accounts of these civilians, we can know that this organization that claims to bring mankind to the eternal kingdom of heaven is nothing more than an evil organization that wantonly uses the lives of civilians to carry out cruel experiments. ”

As Talia speaks, the image changes again. From the bloodied civilians, to the dark underground space, and the rows of huge glass jars.

Of course, next to these huge glass jars, there are many small jars filled with dense and bloody various organs from the human body.

Seeing these bloody images, Luna Maria's face suddenly turned pale.

"Whew!"

Unable to control herself, Luna Maria hurriedly raised her hand to cover her mouth and forcibly endured.

Aslan, who was next to him, immediately shouted, "Really, you go to the infirmary with Luna Maria to rest first." I'll let you know about the mission later. ”

Although his face is a little ugly, at least he is much better than Luna Maria. With Taria's acquiescence, Shin quickly left the battle room with Luna Maria.

"This is the information that the Earth Union has gleaned from this stronghold. From this information, we can know that the so-called immortality claimed by this organization is nothing more than the use of continuous replication and cloning of human beings to achieve the goal of immortality. ”

Talia sighed secretly.

"Of course, this information was also sent to PLANT. After the research of our technicians, a conclusion was reached. After the number of copies and clones of this so-called immortality is carried out, the entire gene chain will collapse. ”

"In other words, it's nothing more than a hoax. A war started by a madman who wants to destroy the world and rule the world. ”

A cold light flashed in Taria's eyes, and she said loudly: "Therefore, both PLANT and ZAFT hope that we can fight this first battle on behalf of the adjuster, on behalf of PLANT, and on behalf of ZAFT!" ”

"Yes!" Aslan, Heine, and Irene stood up at the same time, saluting solemnly.

And Ray followed.

"This is the end of the mission. The rest is up to Aslan, Heine, and Captain Erin. ”

With that, Talia quickly left the war room with Arthur.

"Ray and I went to see Shin and Luna Maria. Discuss the battle arrangements with Captain Erin first! Without waiting for Aslan to speak, Heine seized the opportunity, grabbed the right to speak, and left the conference room with the inquisitive Ray.

Aslan's mouth twitched, suddenly a little messy. He had no idea that Heine, who was a good friend, would betray him without hesitation at this time.

however

Immediately after, it was Erin who spoke first.

I saw the black-haired beauty with that cold face, and said indifferently, no, maybe the word report should be used to describe her tone at this time.

"Captain Sarah. The Savior Gundam has been tuned to its perfect condition. Ask Captain Sara to check it out later. ”

With that, the black-haired beauty was about to turn away, but Aslan called out to her.

However, in the face of the face facing him again, Aslan forgot for a moment what he wanted to say.

"Is there anything else? Captain Sarah. ”

The black-haired beauty stood straight in front of Aslan, and a trace of cold incense quietly penetrated Aslan's nostrils, making Aslan secretly snort.

"No, Captain Erin. Thank you. Aslan, who came back to his senses, shook his head, thanked him, and then asked, "Why do you want to take the initiative to debug my body?" ”

The brunette blinked, seemingly unable to understand what Aslan was saying, but she quickly replied.

"It's all about getting things done. Captain Sara, both in the Supreme Council and in the top of the ZAFT, has high expectations for your performance. Therefore, in order to be able to assist you in getting better results. For the sake of consideration, I think it is necessary to help you debug the body. ”

After Erin said this, she stopped speaking, turned around directly, and disappeared outside the door with a faint fragrance.

Soon after, Aslan, who was haunted by troubles, was driven by his subconscious to come to Gnaku and stand in front of the Savior Gundam.

Before he could take the initiative to board the elevator, the maintenance team immediately approached the door and pushed Aslan into the cockpit of the Savior Gundam on the grounds that this was Captain Erin Adler's order, and told him to evaluate the current situation of the Savior Gundam in the shortest possible time.

Seeing the eager look of the maintenance staff, Aslan sighed secretly, and at the same time, he wondered what the mysterious Captain Erin Adler had done? It would be so obedient to the training class.

Suddenly, the skillful movement jerked and stopped on the button that started the system. At the same time, Aslan's gaze was uncontrollably fixed on the small pattern under the button that started the system, which would be ignored if he was not careful.

It was a small pattern of small circles and a short sword.

This pattern for others,

maybe

This was nothing more than a temporary prank by the maintenance staff.

But for Aslan, it was a bolt from the blue.

Aslan raised his right hand and touched it to his left wrist, turning over the rose pendant that had been wrapped around his wrist.

As the back of the rose pendant appeared in the light, a pattern identical to the small pattern under the start system button appeared in front of Aslan's eyes.

"How is it possible..."

Aslan froze and slumped into the driver's seat.

"Captain Sara?"

The maintenance team personnel who were outside seemed to notice Aslan's abnormality, and hurriedly looked into the cockpit.

"Hey! Has anyone else from the Savior Gundam ever been up? ”

Aslan, who suddenly jumped out of the cockpit, grabbed the maintenance squad member and asked again and again with an eager expression.

"Huh?"

The preparation team staff, who were frightened by Aslan's fiery appearance, froze for a moment, and hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands and replied:

"I knew that only Captain Adler had ever come up, and the others had never entered the cockpit of the Savior Gundam at all."

Despite the fact that this answer had been expected, Aslan put down the prep staff, staggered back a few steps, leaned against the railing, and said nothing. At this moment, Aslan gave people the feeling of being so depressed and so contradictory.

"Captain Sara, you, aren't you, uncomfortable there?" The staff of the maintenance team were frightened by the scene just now, and they dared to try to ask.

Aslan shook his head, raised his right hand, propped himself up on the railing, straightened up, and walked back to the elevator without saying a word.

"Captain Sarah!! What are the stats of Savior Gundam? Later, I'll have to give Captain Adler a reply!!

Under the shouts of the maintenance staff, the silent Aslan slowly turned his head, glanced at the Savior Gundam, and nodded, "There is no problem." ”

Oh, yes!

If it's that person,

There is absolutely no problem with the Savior Gundam.

But

Don't know why? Aslan suddenly felt the rose pendant on his left wrist make him feel extremely painful.

A few days later,

The speeding Minerva finally arrived at the island nation in the Indian Ocean before the arrival of the United Earth Fleet.

Looking at the pitch-black horizon in the distance, Talia looked at Arthur and Meiling and nodded.

"Arthur, the battle begins. Meiling, notify the whole ship to enter the first-class combat state. ”

"Yes! The whole ship is in a first-class combat state! Full Loadout! Arthur, who had been waiting for a long time, reacted immediately.

And Meiling quickly turned on the ship's broadcast.

"Warning! Warn! The whole ship has entered the first-class combat state! The whole ship has entered the first-class combat state! All MS pilots are ready to board now! All MS pilots are ready to board now! ”

Under Meiling's announcement, Aslan and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, reacted immediately.

"Aslan! Let me look forward to seeing what you do! Heine gave Aslan a thumbs up, then turned back to Ray and Shin Asuka and shouted, "EVERYONE, IN THE JOINT CONSULTATION OF THE THREE OF US FAITH, AFTER THE ATTACK, I WILL TAKE COMMAND." Captain Aslan and Captain Erin are free to move. Attention! If you behave badly and do not listen to orders, you will be punished. ”

"Yes!" Ray, Shin Asuka, and Luna Maria immediately replied loudly.

After Heine had subdued the three new mobile phone masters, he secretly glanced at Aslan and left with everyone first.

however

Heine thought that he left space for Aslan and Erin, but the result was...

"Captain Sarah. Let's wait and see! ”

After the dark-haired beauty Erin left this sentence, she left without looking back.

"Will you see?"

For some reason, Aslan's left hand was still strangled and painful.
