Chapter 299: Cagalli is missing, and the captain is gone!
Airmaster 1 returned to the ship with the joy of victory, killed a mothership, and killed all the MS in it, which is still a good feat, and when he came back, he found that the battle of the Archangel had also ended, and he was overjoyed.
But when the fighter plane landed, Mu got out of the cockpit and saw that everyone's expressions were quite solemn.
"Is something wrong?" Mu immediately asked.
"Where's Unit 2?"
"The little girl didn't come back?" Mu was immediately stunned, during the battle, the navigation module of the Airmaster 2 was destroyed, so he asked Cagalli to return first, and he should have returned to the ship a long time ago.
"What happened? What about Cagale? Kisaka, who was also waiting for Cagalli's return, and Lyle, who was returning to the ship, walked over and asked.
"That's ......"
……
Ten minutes ago, after the two Air Kings attacked, they went to look for the mothership of the ZAFT Army in the direction given by the CIC, and it didn't take long to find the location of the submarine carrier.
"I've finally found you, kitten!" Seeing the light spots on the anti-submarine radar, the heart that Mu had been hanging on finally let go, after all, the direction given by the CIC was only a prediction, and it did not mean that they would definitely be able to find the target.
"Kitten?"
"Don't worry, we're on!"
"It's Cagalli!"
Although Cagalli complained that Mu didn't call her name, the action did not stop, and the two Airlord lower-belly missile bays opened, and one after another fired an anti-submarine torpedo.
One missed, one hit, and hit directly on the starboard side of the mothership (port side: you also have today!). The flooding situation was so severe that the mothership had to float, and they also needed to get the [Dean] troops on standby to attack in order to shoot down the two Airlords.
"Damn, if it weren't for the captain asking us to go back to the base to resupply first...... Rise to the surface for Dean to strike and take them down! ”
The shadow on the surface of the sea is getting bigger and bigger, which is a sign that the mothership is about to surface, Mu didn't expect two anti-submarine torpedoes to sink the submarine carrier of the ZAFT army in the first place, in order to force them out of the seabed, as soon as they show their heads, they will give it a solid shot! This is also the reason why the Airmaster piloted by Mu carries an artillery battle backpack.
"They're coming, are you ready?"
"Hmm!"
Cagalli is already piloting the Airmaster for the second time, but she is inevitably still a little nervous, and at the same time, she also wants to strive for performance, so she directly lowered her height and flew low towards the position where the mothership surfaced.
"Hey, don't fly too low, you'll be hit by the waves!"
Fortunately, Mu's timely reminder that Cagalli pulled up the joystick to climb high at the last moment, otherwise, the waves on the mothership would sweep away the airlord and turn him into a turtle in the sea.
"Stupid, calm down next time, don't act impulsively!"
"Who do you call a fool!"
At this time, Mu and Yang Hui empathize with each other, Cagalli's girl is really not cute at all.
However, Ye Mu did not argue with Cagalli either, because the submarine carrier had surfaced, and the three MS ejection hatches on the surface were completely open, and if they did not act, they would be in danger.
"Don't think about it!"
Lowering the height, the [Fire God] ultra-high pulse cannon roared, and the fierce beams of blue, white and red directly penetrated the submarine carrier, leaving a hideous hole, and in the next second, the arc jumped where the big hole melted, and the sound of "zizi" continued to be released, sparks splashed everywhere, and finally exploded one after another, the flames soared into the sky, and the smoke billowed out.
"Killed?" Cagalli was excited to see the submarine carrier explode, but immediately became nervous again as a [Dean] burst out of the flames and smoke and aimed its dark muzzle at her.
In the face of the oncoming [Dean], Cagalli dodged quickly, but almost collided with Mu's trailing attack.
"Little girl, don't run around! What should I do if I hit you? ”
"What do you say...... Not! ”
was still ready to have a hard mouth, Cagalli had already been shot, but fortunately, although the tail was dragging a tail of smoke, it quickly resumed a smooth flight.
"Are you alright?" Mu hurriedly asked, he promised Yang Hui to take care of Cagalli, don't miss the appointment at the last moment.
"It's just a damage to the navigation module, it's fine."
"Can you get back? Then get out of here, I'll deal with this guy. Mu is also afraid, Cagalli's potential to pilot the Airmaster is indeed not low, but she is willful, likes to be reckless, and competitive, Mu really doesn't dare to let her stay on the battlefield anymore.
"It's all right, I can still ......"
"You're flying around there and you're just getting in the way! Don't you understand this!? Mu's temper finally couldn't help it, and he scolded directly, he really finally understood the reason why Yang Hui likes to scold Cagalli, it's not that he likes to target Cagalli, but this girl really scolds!
"Cut, okay, got it!"
Unwilling, but she could only reluctantly accept it, Cagalli could only drive the Airlord out of the battle and return in the direction where the Archangel was located, but ......
Cagalli broke away, and Mu was finally able to let go of his hands and feet.
Lifting, flipping, diving, following the direction of the sun, as Dean was blinded by the stabbing of both eyes, the three-colored cannon fire erupted again with a terrible roar, cutting Dean off at the waist.
"Great!"
Having defeated the last [Dean], and with the joy of victory, the Airlord began to return.
……
"That's the case, I let her return in advance, and it stands to reason that she should have returned."
After listening to Mu's story, everyone fell into thought, thinking about why Cagalli disappeared.
"Could it be that the navigation module is broken, and you can't find the direction of the Archangel and get lost?" Malu guessed.
"Won't it?" Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all had ghostly expressions.
"No, if it's Cagalli...... It's really possible. Yang Hui covered his face and said depressedly.
This expression is really not pretended, the anime is just an anime, will Cagalli still encounter the transport plane of the Holy Aegis, and then both of them will fall, and spend the night with Aslan on an uninhabited island, Yang Hui doesn't know, but Yang Hui, who grew up with Cagalli, knows that she is a road idiot, and she is a super road idiot!
How crazy is Cagalli Road? People who almost got lost in their own mansions!
“…… Alas, what can I do now? "Everyone is really speechless, and there are really people in this world who can't find their way home if they lose their navigation.
"The only way to do this is to carry out a search and rescue operation." Malu decided.
Originally, Bucky Lulu would have been sternly opposed, after all, their location was still occupied by the ZAFT army, and it would be dangerous to stay for a second longer, and no one knew if the ZAFT army would send reinforcements to pursue them.
But now the situation is completely different, not to mention that Bucky Lulu's personality is slowly changing imperceptibly, they accepted Yang Hui's commission to send him and Cagalli back to Orb safely, they also urgently need Orb's supplies, and now there is one less target to escort, and it is Her Royal Highness the princess of the Asgha family, isn't the commission a failure?
And if this news is known to Orb, it is estimated that there is no need to go to Alaska, and it will be good to sink directly.
Because of the urgency of the war, the Atlantic Federation attaches more and more importance to Orb, and if the estrangement between Orb and the Atlantic Federation deepens because of their actions, the high-level officials of the Atlantic Federation will not let them go without Orb's action.
"Find it, at least...... Also find the wreckage of the Airmaster 2. Yang Hui said.
“……”
Everyone was silent, although they all still had hope, but it was only hope, Cagalli's current situation can already be judged to be MIA (abbreviation for Missing In Action, referring to military personnel who disappeared during combat missions. up.
After the Strike Gundam and Airlord 1 were recharged, they made another emergency attack to search the surrounding seas, while the Archangel moved towards the nearest uninhabited archipelago, where she dropped off Lyle's Jean and began to search for Cagalli from land.
"The distress signal should have been sent, but now the signal is so bad that it is useless at all, after the Airlord and the raid have searched the nearby seas, they will converge with the Lyle machine and launch a search for the uninhabited islands."
"Understood." X3
"Remember, the search and rescue operation can only be carried out until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, and it must be over by then." Bucky Lulu reminded.
Stopping and launching a search and rescue operation is already benevolent, after all, Cagalli's life and death are unknown, Yang Hui is still on the Archangel, and he has lost an escort target, they must be responsible for another escort target, and they are also responsible for all members of the Archangel, of course, this deadline has also been agreed by Yang Hui.
"Young Master Yang Hui ......"
"Kisaka, is there anything you want to say?"
"What if...... Cagalli was not found, and I asked to disembark here. ”
"Stay and continue looking for Cagalli?"
"Yes, Master Uzmi has left Cagalli in my care, and if I can't find her within the time limit, I can't just go back."
“…… You've been with Cagalli for a long time, and you've become stupid. Yang Hui shook his head and smiled.
"In Cagalli's words, it's all Hawumeya's guidance." Kisaka replied with an equally wry smile.
"Hawumeya's guidance...... I approve that if we don't find her, you find her and bring her back, one way or another. ”
"Understood."
……
The Archangel launched a search and rescue operation, and the Carbonyllia base of the ZAFT army also went missing, and the captain disappeared before the Sara team, which had just been formed, had not carried out any mission.
"Yitzhak, is there any news from Aslan?" Nigaul asked anxiously when he saw that Yitzhak, who had asked for news, had returned.
Originally, the four of them were supposed to set off together, but the transport plane responsible for transporting the Aegis Gundam temporarily broke down before takeoff, so Aslan and the Aegis Gundam left some time late, and then ...... Until the sun set, they did not reach the base of Carpentalia.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we now announce the first mission of our glorious squad." Instead of answering Nigaul, Yitzhak said in a serious, but rather playful tone, "This task is very important, and the content is ...... Search and rescue captain! ”
"Poof~hahahaha......" Diego laughed out loud after hearing it.
Nigaul wanted to be angry, but he couldn't help it, and he cared more about Aslan's safety than arguing with Yitzhak and Diego.
"He can't be blamed for the downing of the transport plane this time, but the headquarters is also busy, saying that his captain will find it himself."
"Ahh
"But it's getting dark now, so let's look for it tomorrow."
"How can this be!?"
"He's still wearing a holy shield, so he doesn't have to worry too much if he falls into the sea."
"That's it, let's rest in the dormitory today, tomorrow the mothership can be completed, and then we can set off."
Nigel had no choice but to accept that if it was a space environment, even if he was alone, he would have to drive the Thunderbolt Gundam to immediately launch a search and rescue operation, but on Earth, especially at sea, without the support of the mothership, the result of Nigol's solo action could only be to turn the search and rescue targets from one to two.
"Aslan, you must be safe." Nigaul prayed as he looked out the window at the sunset.
