Chapter 176: The Assassin Strikes

It has been a year since the Battle of Nordram completely destroyed the Downs Fortress and the victory of the Earth Federation was announced, and the time has come to the new year's [Courage Day].

"I said Fleet, why didn't you get them sooner? Aren't you ready for a long time? Sitting in Fleet's office, Yang Hui complained to Fleet.

"Wouldn't it make more sense to wait for the arrival of [Courage Day] and put it on this day to execute the plan?" Fleet laughed.

Hearing this, whether it was Yang Hui, Graham and Yulin, or Arthurm, they all looked at Fleet with strange expressions, and secretly sighed when Fleet was so dark-bellied?

"Well, it seems that I really don't fit in to joke." Fleet sighed, feeling that he had been killed, and took out a piece of information and handed it to Yang Hui, "This is the reason why I chose to do it today." ”

Yang Hui and the others circulated it, except for Arthur who was a little nervous, Yang Hui and the three of them were very flat, as if they had expected it.

"Assassination!? Father, I immediately went to prepare. ARTAM SAID SERIOUSLY, YANG HUI AND FLEET KNEW ABOUT THEIR PLANS TO PURGE THE FEDERATION, SO VEGAN'S ASSASSINATION MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO SUCCEED, OTHERWISE ALL PLANS WILL BE RUINED.

"Go ahead, Arthurm, this is your first battle since your promotion, don't fail." Yang Hui smiled and encouraged.

After landing on Earth a year ago, Arthur and Gundam AGE-2 were transferred to the [Celestial] team, not only Arthurm, but also Obright Lowe of the original Vorulf team, especially Obright Lowe, after the death of Uncle Wolf in the original plot, he is the strongest natural person, and his record alone is even more powerful than Arthurm, the second-generation protagonist, who killed one of Jerhat's generals by himself, and then immediately died with Jerhat's right-hand man, Fram Nala.

He was not driving the most elite of the Union Army, the Kronesia, but the old Genoas II.

In the case that the performance of the body is lagging behind, and it is not an X-Rounder ability, the limit is one for two, and two excellent X-Rounder abilities are killed, so I ask this record, what does Artam compare it to? Jerhart, who has been entangled for decades? Or is it Dihill who was cut off under the outbreak?

Of course, the [Celestials] Brigade must be more than just two newcomers to join, and the war has once again entered a period of stability and peace, and the [Celestials] Brigade, as the "Star Factory", naturally has to play the greatest role, which is also what I agreed with Fleet before, and a lot of X-Rounder abilities have been transferred from the secret research institute, but none of them can be named.

And Arthur is also very competitive, trying to stand out from one of the X-Rounder abilities and become a squad leader.

"Don't worry, Uncle Yang Hui, I haven't had a vain year this year." Arthur replied confidently, then turned to leave.

Subsequently, Yang Hui and the others who stayed in the office continued to watch the news broadcast on TV: "41 years since the fall of the angels, [Courage Day], a consolation ceremony was scheduled to be held in the capital Brescia, and under strict guard, the Prime Minister of the Earth Federation, Floy Orfia, arrived at the venue, and the crowd waiting for the ceremony to start on the street was extremely excited...... Di~"

Yang Hui couldn't stand it anymore, so he turned off the TV directly.

"Journalists now...... It's really not even a bit of professional ethics, it's still extremely intense, isn't it just a group of reporters who want to dig up black material? Yang Hui complained.

"I never thought journalists would have such a thing as a professional ethic." Graham sneered.

"So in your plan, we're going to be spectators?" Yang Hui asked Fleet.

"No, if you show up, the most important assassin won't appear, and if the plan goes wrong, that's when you will appear." Fleet said.

It is precisely because of the information that Fleet received that on the special day of [Day of Courage], VEGAN will take action against their long-time collaborator, the Federal Prime Minister, Floy Orfia, and directly sink the secret between them into the sea.

And this is the most powerful evidence that Fleet needs, to expose Floy Orfia's true face in front of the world's live broadcast, and use the killer of the enemy VEGAN to hammer the evidence of his collusion with VEGAN, so that he has no room to turn over.

If this is not recognized by the people, then the only way to play the final hole card is to be thrown.

What would the people think if they learned that the top of the Federation had betrayed their heroes more than once?

"Okay, you can arrange it."

……

Arthur climbed the Gundam AGE-2 and began to deploy the position of the team members, the squad to which the [Celestial] Brigade belonged was different from other troops, and if it could be arranged to perform such an important mission, it must be someone who could take charge of it alone, so this kind of guard mission is naturally dispersed in order to maximize the combat power.

"Conrad goes to the west entrance of the National Mall, Nadia goes to the south avenue of the main entrance square, Dix and the garrison on the north side have been deployed, and I am in charge of guarding the eastern hills, any of the above, is there any problem?"

"Captain, has the attack been confirmed?" Nadia asked.

"Well, that's how the captain and the commander judged, that's why they sent us to assist in the guard."

"Alas, I didn't expect our [Celestial] Brigade to be brought in as a guard......"

Doesn't that mean that the earth is not safe now? DON'T FORGET THAT THIS YEAR WE ALL HUNTED VEGAN LURKING ON EARTH. ”

"Indeed."

"It's time, everyone is in place, and from now on, no communication is allowed for non-emergency radio interference level 3."

"Understood." X2

On the way to the designated place, Artem reminisced about the year's experience.

Joining the [Celestial] Brigade is the opportunity that Arthurm dreams of, he wants to surpass Jarhat, wants to be recognized by his elders, and wants the best growth, then the [Celestial] Brigade is the fastest and best choice.

Seriously, now that he looks back, he doesn't know how he spent this year through the arduous and tedious training, after the Nordram Defense War, among the first batch of trainees of the [Celestial] Brigade, except for Yang Hui and Graham, only he and O'Britt Lorey are not X-Rounder abilities, so he and O'Britt Lorey have made more efforts than others in order not to fall behind, and also to fight for Yang Hui and their old captain Woruf.

And also...... Romarie's retirement.

……

At Earth Airport, Romarie chose to retire and go home, and Arthur sent him off.

"When I get to Tordia, Yunoa will come back to pick me up." Romarie said.

"So you've been in touch?" Arthur was amazed, he had forgotten how long it had been since he had been in contact with his family.

"She is happy, saying that she has joined the star army of her uncles and aunts, and has become the captain of the squad, and her brother has finally come out on top."

"That guy......" Arthur scratched his hair in frustration, "it's not nice to be told by my sister that she's hungry." ”

"Hehehe." Romarie smiled and said, "But she's amazing, and now she's said to have flown all over the world as a medical volunteer." ”

"Well, she said she'd go to the far side of the moon if she needed to." Arthur has a bit of a headache for his sister's idle personality, but he is also very relieved that his sister is also chasing her own ideals and goals.

"There's no comparison."

"Huh?"

"Yunoa is much more sensible than me." As she spoke, Romarie lowered her head and tightened her grip on the bag, "I...... I was too naïve at the time, and I didn't ask for student spirit when I enlisted in the army, I worshipped Arthurm and Jehart, and I always chased your shadow, wishful thinking, and wanted to impose my own ideas on you......"

With that, Romarie finally mustered up the courage and apologized to Arthur: "I'm sorry, I'm ...... Always wanted to apologize......"

"Romarie." Arthur didn't wait for Romarie to finish speaking, and directly interrupted him, "You don't need to apologize, Romarie just needs to be the same Romarie as before." ”

"Artem ......" Hearing the gentle words, looking at Arthur's gentle and mature smile, delighted? Or is it exciting? Whatever the emotion, Romarie replied forcefully, "Hmm! ”

The atmosphere heated up, and the two looked at each other like this, both wanting to shorten the distance between each other, but they both waited for the other party to move first, but before the two of them could take actual action, the airport broadcast interrupted the ambiguous and embarrassing atmosphere.

"I ...... I have to go. ”

"Hmm...... Well. ”

In a hurry, perhaps out of shyness, Romarie turned and left, but Arthur stopped her again.

"Romary...... Although it took a long circle, I ...... I found the true meaning of my fight......"

Romarie turned, anticipating the contents, and was shy, but listened attentively.

"I've always wanted to fight for the most important people in my life and protect them, but ...... I didn't realize until then that it was just the philosophy that Uncle Yang Hui and my father instilled in me, but now ...... I found myself really fighting for this idea, just ...... Among my most important people are my father and mother, my aunts and uncles, Yunoa, and ...... And you, I will continue to protect you. ”

......Hearing this, Romarie's face turned red, her eyes were red, and the moist mist condensed into tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, which were not tears of sadness and pain, but happiness.

"Hmm!"

……

"After today, the earth and the federation will change, and I won't be confused anymore, but my uncle seems to have said that I have a long vacation, do I want to go back...... No, no, no, you can't set a FLAG. Shaking his head, he cleared the distractions out of his mind and focused all on the task at hand.

On the other side, the expected assassins were also prepared, and the routine speeches began, still impassioned, but ...... That's all.

"Hmph, keep shouting." Medel Sant muttered to himself in the cockpit, "You're useless, it's all the will of Lord Iselkanda." ”
