"awacs006 report! Unidentified ship found in area code 3, 18116 - confirmed to be the Archangel!"
Hidden in the turbulent mountain wind and snow, the Compton-class land battleship was parked motionless.
On the bridge, the plump-cheeked and blessed-looking Captain Uyinrad wore an unbefitting gloomy expression, but after receiving the reconnaissance report from the aerial sentry, he could not help but reveal a trace of satisfaction in his voice. .
"It finally takes action!"
For this special mission, the Wuyinlade team he led has been hiding in the mountains of western Eurasia, waiting for reports from reconnaissance aircraft.
The special mission is to search for the Lord Angel.
The Archangel has brought a lot of trouble to ZAFT since Orb appeared.
He has disappeared in Dardanelles and Berlin, and the radio wave obstruction caused by neutron interference has made it difficult for people to track his whereabouts.
However, according to reliable reports, the Archangel has been moving in the direction of Orb.
Therefore, they were sent to guard the area from Berlin to the coastline.
"Send the report back to the headquarters to request support——"
Captain Wu Yinlade continued with cold eyes: "At the same time, issue level one combat readiness! Prepare to attack! Their position must not be lost before the Minerva arrives!"
"yes!"
————
"The Speaker was talking about the Conquest of Logos! How could it suddenly turn into the Conquest of the Archangel!?"
Aslan excitedly knocked on the table in the captain's room.
The Minerva has left Berlin and is speeding westward, preparing to carry out new orders from the command.
And this new order is to support the 'Angel Falls' combat operation.
When he learned the content of the order, Aslan thought he had heard it wrong.
Aslan continued to say to Thalia: "The Archangel has stated its position on the Berlin battlefield. There may be something wrong with this order! Please confirm with the headquarters again——+"
"I already confirmed it!"
Thalia stood up angrily and shouted back, her face looking very angry: "The answer is the same! The Archangel and the Liberty Gundam have always been part of the United Earth Forces. In view of the future situation, we must Eliminate their threats immediately and do not allow them to continue to exist. This is the decision of ZAFT’s military department!”
"Just because we want to defeat Logos, we should gather all available forces, right? The Lord Angel, which has separated from the Earth Alliance, shouldn't--"
"Aslan! This is an order!"
Thalia interrupted Aslan directly.
To be honest, she was still a little reluctant to rely solely on this ship to deal with a legendary machine, or a machine whose position had almost been determined.
But an order is an order, and that is a fact that cannot be changed.
Aslan originally held out hope, thinking that the misunderstanding was caused by the speaker not understanding the truth, but now——
Thalia herself did not agree with this combat operation, but an order was an order, so she sounded even more impatient when she spoke: "It's too late to say anything now! The combat operation has already started!"
The situation is no longer something low-level soldiers like Aslan or Thalia can stop.
Aslan knew it in his heart, but he just couldn't accept it.
But he saw Thalia looking directly at him: "Stop messing around, Aslan, I know you don't want to lose your former comrades... but people's hearts will change with time and situations."
"You have changed, haven't you? - Please recognize the reality!"
Aslan gasped in shock when he saw the severity in her eyes.
Is this an inevitable reality?
What he firmly believes will never change has actually been lost unconsciously?
Is my strong denial at this moment just because I don’t want to admit or face this fact?
Thalia looked at Aslan's confused look and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, this is a combat order from ZAFT's military headquarters. If you really don't want to participate in the battle, as an aith, you can choose to wait in the ship. I I won’t blame you! At the same time, I won’t report this matter!”
"I--"
"Captain, we have received a signal from AWACS and are about to arrive at the combat area."
Just when Aslan was about to speak, the communication from the bridge interrupted his next words.
"I am coming over now!"
After replying to the communication from the bridge, Thalia immediately picked up her military hat and walked out the door.
Aslan followed without giving up.
"captain!"
"If you don't want to watch, just stay in the room. You don't have to participate, but if you do anything against ZAFT, even if you are an aith, I will not sit idly by and watch!"
Hearing her cold words, Aslan froze on the spot for a moment.
"A red alert is issued. Drivers please go to the landline and stand by."
After putting on his driving suit and sitting in the guard room waiting for the attack, Shin Asuka slowly opened his eyes.
Heine and others on the side also stood up and walked towards the MS storage room with solemn expressions.
Although they have a numerical advantage.
But the opponent is Freedom Gundam, a legend on the same level as Captain Noel.
They had more or less fought against the Freedom Gundam during the Black Sea Battle. He was a very terrifying guy.
To deal with him, a siege may be the only thing they can do.
"real."
Seeing Zhen standing up with the helmet in hand, Lei called out to him.
"Don't forget what I said."
"Ok, I know."
After hearing this, Zhen Asuka turned around and nodded.
Maybe this hits the nail on the head.
At the beginning, Lei's simulation driving specifically analyzed the fighting habits of Liberty Gundam and Captain Noel.
I just didn't expect to need it so soon.
At this time, Lei had a rare smile on his face and said with relief: "Don't worry, you can definitely defeat it with your own hands."
A force surged into his body.
Zhen Asuka responded with a firm smile: "...Thank you."
Full of determination, he moved forward.
Yes, Freedom is very strong, and Captain Noel is also very strong, but so what.
A true warrior dares to face all crises and hardships.
Freedom Gundam, let me defeat it!
Shin Asuka walks into the launch pad elevator leading to the Pulse Gundam.
At this time, the door to the guard room opened.
Aslan walked in with a solemn expression.
"--real!"
"Aren't you going to attack?"
Zhen Asuka stopped and looked at Aslan, who was still wearing his uniform, and couldn't help but ask.
"I--"
Aslan was speechless.
Seeing this, Zhen Asuka didn't say much, shook his head and closed the elevator door.
It is no secret that Aslan and Kira Yamato, the pilot of the Freedom Gundam, are close friends and comrades-in-arms.
He could understand Aslan's reluctance to fight his former comrades, but understanding didn't mean he could accept it.
They are soldiers.
It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders.
Not to mention that the headquarters' orders are absolute for soldiers.
Let's just say that the Lord Angel and the Freedom Gundam have always been enemies. During the naval battle, many soldiers on this ship died because of them.
In this case, Aslan, a soldier, gave up his persistence as a soldier because of his past feelings.
