Aslan was in action, using FAITH authority. After convincing the captain, the pilot of the Savior Gundam struck out alone.
Since Fleur failed to contact him directly, Li Boyong was unable to warn Aslan about the dangers related to the Speaker.
This also led Aslan to reveal his intention to contact the Archangel, just like the original work. However, unlike the original owner, he contacted the Archangel to facilitate negotiations.
After Lei learned that Aslan was dispatched alone, he was keenly aware of Aslan's purpose. After finding the captain to confirm, and with the authority given by the Speaker, he ordered Lunamaria to secretly follow Aslan. The command.
The good old Aslan didn't know that for the Speaker, what was important was not his own purpose, but the fact that he could contact the Archangel.
Lux and Kira on the Archangel are the people that Speaker Durandal fears from the bottom of his heart.
In the PLANT political arena, for the die-hard Klein faction members, Lux Klein is the adjuster leader they really look forward to.
He inherited the will of his father, Speaker Siegel, and prevented Speaker Sara from going on a rampage during the last war. His fame and achievements coexisted.
Durandal knew very well that no matter how good he was, to those people, he was just a substitute before Lux Klein returned.
In addition, Kira is accompanying Lux, and with Lux as her backing, Kira's power as a super adjuster can be fully utilized.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
The combination of these two people is too much of a hindrance to the destiny plan.
As for Li Boyong, who caused some deviations in his plan, Durandal was not too worried, because he knew very well that as long as he grasped the fatal weakness of Wang Liumei being a member of the Principle Law Association, there were too many ways to deal with Li Boyong.

At the same time, after Aslan left the Gibraltar base, the Minerva's combat power received a major increase.
Two Destiny Gundams, one Legendary Gundam, and one Destiny Pulse Gundam became the Minerva's carrier machines under the supervision of Development Director Nigel.
"Aslan acted alone?"
After Nigel learned of Aslan's movements from Shihena, he regretfully said: "It seems I'm a step too late."
As he spoke, he pointed to the legendary Gundam in the Minerva hangar, "The debugging work of the aircraft originally intended for him would be difficult if neither I nor the Savior Gundam were present."
"He also wanted to avoid unnecessary attacks on the Gibraltar base." Shihe Wenyan explained: "He believes that now is not the time to conflict with the Mediterranean Earth Army, and that the right way to end this war as soon as possible is to attack the Law Society."
Nigel thought for a while and commented: "I agree with his judgment."
Then he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this side. He whispered to Shihe: "Actually, there are not a few people in the mainland who have the same view. The wind direction above is also the same. The only difference is to unite with the statement over there. ."
"I hope he can succeed." Shihe nodded and made a pun.
"Well, we can only talk about Aslan's machine until he comes back." Nigel said: "Let's talk about your new machine..."
"The integrated equipment has been optimized in terms of energy consumption, improving the aircraft's continuous combat capability. But after all, it is still a conventional energy source. The use of the two beam cannons should be more cautious. After all, even Destiny only carries one."
Destiny Pulse, an experimental machine born from the new equipment given to Shihe last time. However, due to some reasons, it was not included in the mass production plan. Instead, the redesigned Destiny Gundam received the favor of the military.
The two Destiny Gundams added this time were given to Heine and Shinlai to drive respectively.
As for the Destiny Pulse, although mass production has not been achieved, it does not mean that the machine has poor performance.
In order to improve the combat power of the Minerva in this special situation, he was assigned to the Minerva and handed over to Shihe to pilot.
The vacated Pulse Gundam and the special equipment Pulse previously driven by Shihe were piloted by Lunamaria and Lei Lai respectively.
At this point, the Minerva was also equipped with a fleet of Gundam-type mechas.
I don’t know if the military headquarters made the arrangement intentionally or unintentionally after noticing the results of the intensive use of Gundam by Li Boyong’s troops.

Mediterranean sea area Balearic Sea.
Ever since Li Boyong discussed with Kira and Lux the hope that Aslan would return from ZAFT.
The Archangel has been lurking in this sea area, cooperating with the agents dispatched by Wang Liumei, and paying attention to the movements of the Gibraltar base.
Kira believes that as long as Aslan sees Tori, the mechanical bird carried by Fleur, he will find a way to meet him.
In order to convince Aslan, Cagalli even temporarily put down the command of the Orb fleet and lurked here with the Archangel.
The boring wait at the bottom of the sea is painful, but Huangtian pays off, and the agents provide updates about the Savior Gundam in regular contacts.
The single plane left Gibraltar and appeared in the waters from North Africa to the Alboran Sea controlled by ZAFT. It seemed that it was also looking for traces of the Archangel.
"What are you waiting for? We will also go out to contact each other." The anxious Cagalli couldn't sit still after hearing the news.
But Kira immediately stopped the other party, "Don't act recklessly. Have you forgotten that I told you about the assassination that Orb suffered?"
"But that has nothing to do with Aslan." Cagalli choked back.
"Yes, Aslan is now a soldier of ZAFT." Kira interrupted Cagalli, "I am not questioning Aslan, but I am worried that his movements may be controlled by ZAFT."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lacus and said, "Since we have doubts about PLANT, we must proceed with caution. Before leaving, Colonel Li Boyong also specifically told us not to be caught by the ZAFT army, and we must keep you safe." Return to the port of Marseille.”
"Then what should we do?" Cagalli asked.
"At this time, let's trust the agents Wang Liumei gave us." Kira said: "Now in places where Aslan may appear, there are many agents of Wang Liumei waiting with copies of Tori. I believe they will be able to do it soon. Send back good news.”
"..." Although Cagalli was convinced, she was still depressed.
Seeing this, Lux quickly pulled her to comfort her, and finally they entered the hot spring equipped on the Archangel together.
Seeing this, Uncle Mu winked at Captain Ma Liu, "Why don't you go together?"
Ma Liu gave Uncle Mu a hard slap, and then asked: "By the way, before leaving, Li Boyong came to see you specifically. Did he tell you anything?"
"This... is a little inconvenient to say." Uncle Mu quickly laughed when asked, "Anyway, you will know when the time comes."
