"Aslan! Help!"
After saying that, Noel pulled the flying claw hard when he was close to the reef, and the giant blade flew out from the cockpit, rolled in mid-air and was stuck on the ground.
Gates also took advantage of the force and kicked him towards the attacker at the same time.
For some reason, Strike Gundam didn't dodge Gates' sudden kick, but was kicked out by Noel like a fool.
"Lieutenant Yamato!"
"Kira!"
Inside the Archangel, they couldn't help but exclaimed as they watched the attacker being kicked away.
"What are you still doing? Save people!"
Noel looked at Aslan who was still in a daze, and couldn't help but remind him again and cursed angrily.
Although now is the best time to attack with force, there is still Archangel interfering nearby, so it is impossible to do it in a short time.
Moreover - we can't watch Nigel die here. The beam saber has not cut the cockpit into two pieces, so as long as the machine body does not explode, Nigel still has a chance to survive.
Although it is slim, at least there is a chance!
"Nichol..."
Kira looked at his hands blankly.
The sorrowful cry of Aslan that she heard just now is still echoing in Kira's ears.
I just subconsciously drove the body——
The enemy plane suddenly appeared at close range and attacked fiercely. Kira's reflexes were synchronized with the weapon, and he only reacted unconsciously.
When he was shocked, the long sword in his hand had already struck the Thunder Gundam's vitals.
"Lieutenant Yamato! What are you doing!"
The angry scolding from Lieutenant Natal Bakirulu finally made Kira wake up.
The Archangel approached from above, and the porcupine array at the bottom of the ship was firing in support.
Under this violent strafing attack, several people were unable to get close to the Strike Gundam.
Although several people did not intend to attack.
"Come back! Didn't I tell you not to pursue me?"
Kira suddenly woke up. A strong regret came to my mind, why didn't I do as she said just now?
He bit his lip and glanced at the enemy plane leaving with the Thunder Gundam behind him.
"Nichol..."
Chewing the name painfully, Kira started the jet thruster and left the island.
I hope... everyone is okay————
"Get out of the combat airspace! Maximum thrust!"
At the same time that the Strike Gundam arrived at the ship, Malu's voice sounded, and the Archangel accelerated away, and the island below gradually faded away.
Kira was still in a state of confusion and dissociation at this time, and had not yet fully recovered. He almost mechanically and automatically turned off the operating system and power supply of Strike Gundam.
"That's great! Thank you for your hard work!"
As soon as Kira stepped out of the cockpit, warm cheers greeted her.
Madek shouted loudly and kept clapping his hands.
"Finally killed one! Yeah!"
"It's called Thunder Gundam, right?"
"Awesome! Well done!"
For a moment, Kira didn't even understand what they were doing, and could only stand blankly in the crowd, looking at them blankly.
At this time, people did not notice his mood at the moment, they just kept congratulating him, or rushed to rush to pat him on the shoulder.
It took Kira a while to realize that they were praising themselves and being happy for what they had done.
Kira suddenly felt the urge to vomit, and all the faces around him became distorted, looking like the faces of monsters.
He felt a twinge of disgust even when Madek finally called him ensign out of respect.
After a while, Kira suppressed her excitement and said, "I came back after killing someone... and you actually said I 'did a good job'...!"
Everyone's expressions were as if someone had poured cold water on them.
"It's over——"
Madek screamed and frowned. Having been in frequent contact with Kira, he could understand Kira's mood.
But that doesn’t mean everyone can understand it.
"Why, we didn't kill so many before..."
Someone's whisper came out, and Kira became even more excited and trembling.
Just when he was about to roar, Mu walked over through the human wall, grabbed his hand, and began to smooth things over: "Okay, okay - Kira is tired too."
"Let's go...Kira."
After speaking, Mu put his arms up as if to protect him, but Kira waved Mu's arms away and ran away.
Mu followed Kira closely when the two walked to the aisle.
Mu suddenly grabbed his shoulder, forced him to stop and said forcefully: "We are soldiers."
Seeing that Kira's expression remained unchanged, Mu couldn't help shaking Kira's shoulders and said: "We are not murderers! We are fighting! Fighting! If you don't kill, you will be killed! Me too, and so are you! Everyone is. so!"
"I know!"
Kira spat out this sentence angrily. Of course he knew it, but he knew it—
Seeing Kira's expression, Mu couldn't help closing his eyes and sighing. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with concentration. He pursed his lips and said in a stern tone: "Then don't hesitate! Hesitation in war will cost you your life!"
It's not that he doesn't want to be considerate of Kira, but... war is like this, if you don't kill him, he will kill you and your friends.
————
Inside the ship where MS was boarding, the anxious people did not even change their combat uniforms. They just stood silently at the door of the infirmary, and the atmosphere was slightly solemn.
"Didi——"
"昘——"
Suddenly, the infirmary door opened.
"How's it going?"
Several people immediately gathered around and looked eagerly at the army doctor.
"It was delivered in time, and my life has been saved for the time being, but my physical condition is still not optimistic and there is a risk of deterioration at any time."
The doctor shook his head and continued: "And even if he really survives after follow-up treatment, due to being struck by the beam saber, his body's muscle tissue has been extensively destroyed, and his spine has also been severely damaged. Damage, even if you wake up, you will be permanently paralyzed!"
"What did you say!"
When Yitzhak heard this, he immediately became furious. He grabbed the doctor's collar with both hands and shouted angrily: "Do you know who he is? He is an MS combat pilot! He is in red! Do you know what paralysis means to him? What are you wearing!"
"Yitzhak!"
Diaka and Noel saw the situation and hurriedly pulled Yitzhak back.
"I don't want him to become like that, so we have contacted PLANT. A spacecraft will come from the Chucktalia base later to transport the patient to PLANT for treatment." The doctor with the army tidied up his clothes and said.
He has seen this situation many times, so————
"Thanks!"
Hearing this, Aslan stepped forward and bowed to the army doctor and said, "Please, please save him! He still has unfinished dreams!"
"boom!"
"Yitzhak!"
"calm!"
As soon as Aslan finished speaking, a fist rushed towards his head.
The violent impact caused Aslan's body to stumble and hit the wall of the battleship's aisle.
"Dream!? Do you still know about Nicol's dream!?"
Under the restraints of Noel and Diaka, Yitzhak asked Aslan: "Tell me why he was the one who had the accident! Why!?"
Blood trickled down Aslan's cheek, but this slight pain had no effect on him now.
Facing Yitzhak's questioning, he didn't know how to explain or answer. In fact, he always knew very well in his heart that all this was because of himself——
If I hadn't held back from the beginning, if I hadn't allowed Kira to grow up, if I hadn't been distracted in the final battle————
