Chapter 42: The Angel Falls (1)

Draw your sword!

The moment he held the weapon, the attack in front of him seemed to suddenly come to life!

It's not a strange feeling... Just like last time, and like every previous battle, when the mech was actually activated, the terrifying impact could make even his enemies lose their resolve to resist. It seems that he is not a cold mech manipulated by a pilot, but some kind of monster that really has life...

"Spread out! Watch for cover! ”

Krauser reminded loudly, and Aslan, who was almost moving at the same time as the attack, also drew his lightsaber without hesitation and quickly stepped forward!

Now he can't care about any orders or arrangements. Correct mistakes, redeem yourself... The only thing he was thinking about now was how to defeat the enemy in front of him, how to kill his best friend, in front of him!

"Aslan!"

Diaca, who had already seen the combat effectiveness of the assault, reminded loudly in the communication channel. There's no doubt that Aslan's manipulation skills may be the most powerful of the bunch, but it's still nowhere near the level of that guy... In front of this terrifying mecha, even the duel piloted by Yitzhak did not survive two rounds.

And at that time, the other party was facing a siege by the five of them!

It's too unthinkable to rush up for one-on-one melee combat like this...

But now, even if they want to help, it's too late.

The two Mobile Suits were charging at each other with their engines running at the same time, a paltry distance that disappeared before the line of sight caught up with the jet track.

By the time they locked on to the target again, the two had already switched positions to complete the first round of confrontation!

But this is far from the end.

The misdirection did not allow the two to distance themselves, but instead they both pushed the machine to the limit, using their powerful control to turn around again and fight together.

Phew!!

The exchange of beams and swords also caused a large area of fire. In the face of the rapid attack of the counter-attack, the holy shield that can use four lightsabers at the same time did not fall behind at all, but instead attacked the opponent with a sound and impressive attack.

This is... Aslan?

Krauser frowned, indeed, compared to the previous two times, the other party's movements were noticeably slower, this is a fact. But... Even so, being able to fight one-on-one with the opponent like this, Aslan's combat level is far greater than before!

The fighter planes on the battlefield were fleeting, and in any case, Aslan's performance was good news for Zaft, and Krauser took the opportunity to re-order.

"Aslan is in charge of pestering each other, let's attack the Archangel's hull... Listen, if you can shoot it down directly, don't keep your hands, if not, at least knock out the opponent's main engine! ”

"It's... Be! ”

Nickel and Diaca, who were also standing on the sidelines because of Aslan's performance, also took action immediately after receiving the new order.

The kind of melee combat with terrifying maneuvering abilities on both sides couldn't help Aslan at all, and the movements of both sides changed so quickly that they didn't even give the beam guns a chance to aim, let alone the powerful but briefly recharged shelling of the Storm Gundam.

But they can't just stand aside and wait for the outcome of the two heads-up, just like the captain said, as long as the archangel is sunk, the attack is simply a source of water, and sooner or later they will be captured.

Engine jetting!

Bypassing the main battlefield between the Assault and the Holy Shield, the three planes began to approach the Archangel!

It's ridiculous to say that artillery and beams break the silence at the same time, and if the operation is successful, it will be the battleship that the Earth Army's Mobile Suit shot down in the first place...

—————————————————————————————————————

"Perform an evasive move! At the same time, the maximum acceleration! Reflective Thunderbolt Launch! ”

The enemy is close at hand, and while the assault is still ongoing, these three Mobile Suits are by far the biggest threat to the Archangel.

"Multi-barreled automatic turret, don't let the enemy approach!"

Just like Kira did just now, once the frontal defense is breached, it only takes one shot, and the entire Archangel will be paralyzed, and then usher in the real end.

"The anti-aircraft missile is set to auto-launch mode!"

Yes, the Archangel's firepower is indeed quite impressive, but it is not an impenetrable impregnable wall for the well-trained Zaft army, which is even equipped with PS armor.

The Thunderbolt Gundam took advantage of its speed to quickly approach the cockpit, and at the stern, Jean, piloted by Krauser, also used heavy firepower to continuously annihilate the Archangel's defenses.

Although the multi-barrel automatic turret and beam missile finally forced the Thunderbolt back, behind it, at some point, the 94mm high-energy restriction fire rifle in the left hand and the 350mm rocket launcher in the right hand were installed together!

The armoured shotgun with its exaggerated barrel terrified the people sitting on the Archangel.

…

Launch!

The archangel, who had exhausted the barrage, was unable to completely evade this attack, and if it weren't for the presence of stacked armor, this blow would have been enough to inflict massive damage.

"Fire inside, lower the wall!"

The obvious tremor brought fear of the future, and people began to wonder if they would really be able to break through...

Not far away, Kira also saw all this, but now, he really couldn't help the Archangel...

The previous sequelae were even more serious than expected, not to mention fighting with all his might, and now he can't even maintain a critical breakthrough well. Correspondingly, Ai Silan seems to have completely changed his person, and his combat style and frequency of actions are completely beyond what he knew before.

… That is, is it a "seed"?

It's at this time!

The Archangel is already in danger, and Captain Flagg's mission is to stop the attack of the enemy ships, and now it is clear that only his strong attack can be helped.

This situation... That's the case!

The memory inherited from the strongest adjuster named Kira Yamato has always blocked his muzzle, and he himself has not been able to show all his strength due to his physical condition, if this continues, not to mention repaying the kindness of those partners who are waiting for him, I am afraid that the entire archangel will be shot down!

How? What should I do?

The more he urged in his heart, the faster he couldn't move, and he was almost hit directly by the opponent's beam sword several times.

If this continues, he will be killed, and the Archangel will soon be killed...

The mission will fail, and a lot of people will die... There will be more people crying!

Obviously, it's such an unfortunate fact...

However, inadvertently, when Kira himself didn't even notice, the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a crazy and hideous smile.

…

The engine is the biggest!

Facing the opponent's beam sword, the strong attack actually hit head-on without hesitation!
