Independence is not just a matter of words, anyone can shout slogans.
But to really become independent from the two most powerful countries in the Western Continent requires absolute strength.
Without strength, no matter how loud the slogans are, they cannot withstand the torrent of tanks and the swarm of empty boats.
Crossbell's strength at that time was magic.
The predecessor of the blue divine machine that appeared in the Sassarant State defeated the empire's mecha division.
All the artillery fire cannot break through the armor of the blue divine machine, and the powerful artillery bombardment can destroy a tank brigade at a time.
The purple divine machine in front of me was even more destroyed by the purple "demon", its super speed and changeable armaments, and it was unknown how much Kalvad's air power was destroyed.
It is precisely because of the fierce fighting of the two magical machines that the two major countries are blocked "outside the country." Although it has this power with the help of the power of the treasure, it still deserves the title of the patron saint of Crossbell.
Objectively speaking, the collapse of the independent country was also because someone gambled his life to destroy two divine machines, which gave him the opportunity to support Koko.
"By the way, we were also collaborators with President Dita at that time. If Miss Maria Bell hadn't changed the contract later, we would have been fighting to the end to 'protect' Cross Bell. Is this also the arbitrary act you said?"
"..." Yuna was speechless.
Although she is a junior of Lloyd, Randy and others and is very close to them, she is not a member of the support department after all, and she does not know many inside stories.
She could only look at Randy, the only support member present.
Randy squeaked, not hiding his disgust: "It sounds so nice, but it's not for your own plan."
"It's called each getting what he needs." Ken Parela didn't care, and said with a smile, "And unlike the empire, we are only supporting in Crossbell, not leading. Accepting the mayor at the time, the later independent country Regarding the president’s entrustment, I think there are no problems with the procedures or methods.”
"This is just consequentialism!" Randy retorted.
"The result is the most important criterion. I don't deny the importance of the process, but it still has to lead to the result. For example, in your battle at the 'Star View Tower', if the Seventh Pillar and the 'Iron Fleet' fought at the same time , do you think you have a chance of winning?"
"this……"
A question that left Randy speechless.
The Seventh Pillar is the strongest enemy they have ever encountered, bar none (Qia is not an enemy, the final battle is actually more about showing will and untying Qia's heart, rather than confronting with strength).
The entire support department used all their strength to fight until their bodies were bruised and bruised. Only then did the opponent retreat, which was considered a small victory.
But at that time, the people guarding the "Hoshimi Tower" were not only the Seventh Pillar herself, but also her direct combat unit "Iron Fleet". However, the Seventh Pillar was dispersed to various floors of the tower as guards of the floors, and was given to the support department. Opportunity to defeat.
If they gather together, they will engage in a total battle with the support department. Even if they don't use the "Star Formation" shown in the Sassarant State, and just contain a few strong combatants in the support department, the seventh pillar can kill the rest in one fell swoop. Then, in turn, they will defeat the strong ones one by one. The support department will have no other outcome except the group destruction.
Although I don’t know why the seventh pillar gave up the advantage, as Ken Parela said, the result is the most important, and the result was that they successfully won and conquered the "Tower of Star View".
Randy couldn't tell, and Yuna said: "President Dita cannot represent Crossbell. His independence is not recognized, and he himself was arrested by the Support Section!"
"Why not?" Ken Parela asked, "Isn't he the mayor elected by you? Wasn't the support rate very high when the independent country was established?"
Yuna said righteously: "Because he used disgraceful means to deceive all Crossbell residents and violated laws and procedures, so he was arrested!"
"Hahahaha." Ken Parela laughed out loud.
"why are you laughing?"
"Who gave them the laws and procedures? At that time, just like now, they were either imprisoned or on the run. Don't you think it's ridiculous that a group of people who violate the laws and procedures turn around and talk about the procedures?"
"That was also the violation by former President Dita. Senior Randy and the others are correcting this mistake." Yuna said firmly.
"Use mistakes to correct mistakes, haha. Of course, both the former president and the Secret Service Support Section believe that they did nothing wrong, and they have their own standards of judgment. In the end, only the residents of Crossbell can judge."
"That's it!" Yuna nodded affirmatively, "Everyone supports the support department, that's why Senior Lloyd and Senior Randy are called heroes."
"Is that so?" Ken Parela asked, "Then why do I often hear people say that it would be better if President Dita was still here?"
"That's just the complaint of a small number of people. There are 530,000 people in Crossbell, so it's normal for there to be different voices." Yuna firmly believed.
"It is indeed normal. But why do you think that it is a small number of people? Have you or the Special Agent Support Section done any opinion polls? You also know that there are 530,000 people in Crossbell. How many of them do you usually come into contact with? When will their voices be heard? Can it represent the entire Crossbell?
At least former President Dita was elected according to public opinion polls, and his support rate reached a record high. Even if he used dishonorable means, he could indeed represent the voice of Crossbell as a whole at the time. When the Support Section arrested Crossbell, they did not conduct a public opinion survey. At most, they heard the voices of some people during the event. "
"As I said just now, he used disgraceful means to manipulate public opinion. The Secret Service Support Division will not do this kind of thing. What we hear are real voices, and everyone's thoughts are true. of!"
"But that doesn't mean the whole voice of Crossbell does it?"
"You, you are forcing others to make things difficult for you!" Yuna blushed and rebuked loudly, "They were wanted by the former president and later by the imperial government. Even if they want to do a poll, it is impossible. Is it possible for the Governor to do so? Will they be allowed to operate in public?”
Rufas, who was named, shrugged: "The current situation is impossible, but it may be in the future."
"Eh? What do you mean?" Yuna didn't understand. Hasn't the Governor been suppressing the activities of the Support Section?
Rufus smiled faintly and said nothing. Ken Parella explained on his behalf:
"It means - the support rate of the Support Section is constantly decreasing."
"How is this possible?" Yuna didn't believe it.
"You don't understand, do you? Then let me tell you in detail, the real current situation of Crossbell - it's rare for people to gather together like this. It would be a waste not to show off."
