"There are still five hours left before the reply deadline..."
On the bridge of the Minerva, Thalia looked at the clock and muttered to herself.
The anti-logos alliance composed of ZAFT and the Volunteer Army has now set up a formation in the Icelandic waters close to the Paradise Island base.
Large and small ships cover the ice ocean, there are numerous mobile phone fleets in the sky, and there are even submarines waiting in formation under the water.
As for outside the satellite orbit, the MS fleet preparing to land in the atmosphere should have already assembled.
The headquarters for such a military presence was located on the Minerva.
Facing the strategic panel on the bridge, Durandal pondered: "...Is it still not possible?"
When setting off from the Gibraltar base, they issued an ultimatum to the Paradise Island base - that is, a surrender advisory.
But until now, the United Earth Army has still not made any statement.
On the vast sea overlooking the frozen land, there are also private helicopters and ships mixed in.
They are media from various countries who are here to report on this war.
Looking at the photographers busy filming and broadcasting on the deck, as well as the reporters talking to the camera, you can tell that the eyes and ears of the world have gathered here.
"It would be best if we could not fight this battle..."
Seeing the Speaker talking to himself with a look of regret on his face, Thalia couldn't help but cast doubtful eyes on him.
But only for a short while.
Realizing that she was in this mood, she immediately put away all expressions.
This is not the time to allow individuals to lose their temper.
In a few hours, a battle between the victor and the vanquished will begin, and he must be fully prepared to deal with it.
"Speaker, the heat source of the battleship was found under the sea on the left - it is the Lord Angel!"
At this moment, a report from the radar detection soldiers sounded.
"Eh?"
"Um?"
The crew of the Minerva looked shocked.
"I am Frey Alstar of the Archangel. We may have had many misunderstandings in the past, but at this moment, for the sake of justice and peace, on behalf of the Archangel, I request to join the coalition against logos."
Before the Speaker could give an answer, Fleur's voice came to the Minerva through the public broadcasting channel.
"Ah this——"
"speaker?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at the Speaker.
Thalia also looked stunned.
The two sides had just fought an encirclement and suppression battle not long ago. If it hadn't been for an unknown force that appeared at that time, the Archangel and the Liberty Gundam might have died at the hands of the Minerva.
Now they dare to come out.
Facing everyone's attention.
With his eyes flashing, Durandal reached out and pressed the communication button and smiled: "We welcome everyone who fights for peace. On behalf of ZAFT, I welcome Miss Frey to join us!"
"Thanks."
Fleur's voice fell, and the communication was cut off.
Within a moment, the repaired Archangel broke out of the sea on the far left side of the coalition's rearrangement.
However, not long after the Lord Angel broke out of the water, a part of the Earth Alliance's crusade force slowly approached, almost all of them Eurasian Federation warships.
After all, Fleur's reputation in the Eurasian Federation is very high.
In addition, due to the successive battles, many different voices have appeared in the Eurasian Federation regime. It is not impossible for Frey Alsta to understand that someone would take sides in this situation.
Durandal narrowed his eyes slightly when he looked at the spots on the radar, but he didn't say much.
This is only a small part of the coalition. On one side is ZAFT, who can jump out and face the logo, and on the other side is the Archangel, which has only one battleship. You can use your toes to know which side to stand on.
But that guy Hills Satie does have a knack for disgusting people.
Control broadcasts also sounded throughout the entire Paradise Island base.
The soldiers prepared for battle in full swing.
Vehicles came and went inside the base, which was the size of a small city, and each unit closed its safety compartments one after another.
Combat pilots have been seated in the MS in the hangar, waiting for the elevator to take them to the surface.
"Attention everyone in the district, we are now moving to the underground evacuation facilities to implement the α defense system."
"The seventh mobile group has been deployed."
"The power supply to Nibelungen will start in 30 minutes -"
There is a grandstand surrounded by glass curtains above this busy building.
A group of men were sitting elegantly on the leather sofa, looking down at the busyness in the commander's room.
Each of these people wore well-tailored noble clothes and had fragrant hot black tea in front of them. Compared with the soldiers gathered around, they looked out of place.
A member of logos asked slightly uneasily: "Jibril, can you really hold on like this?"
The opponent is coming menacingly and their troops are extremely powerful.
"What? Mamoru?"
Jibril sneered at his choice of words: "What are these words? We are attacking them! Right here and now!"
He looked around at the old people present and said arrogantly: "If you attack us, the war will end and the world will be peaceful? - Huh! People are so stupid, and they are deceived by this argument in a few moments. However, Precisely because the world is ignorant, we must defeat those guys at all costs!"
"Before things fall to a truly irreversible point, and before the world falls at the mercy of those guys and coordinators, we must use victory to tell those ignorant people who is the real master of the world!"
Jibrilkan was passionate and intoxicated with his sense of mission. The generals at the table seemed to be moved by the words of the leader of the Blue Cosmos Alliance, and they all nodded in agreement.
"That's true... It's just a name for attacking us, but it's just replacing those people."
The members of logos also looked at each other and nodded, with sarcastic smiles on their lips.
"We have known for a long time that there are no messengers of justice or god-like supermen in the world..."
There are no heroes or true messengers of justice in this world.
For the people, for peace - he talks about being a high-sounding hero, but after peeling off that layer of skin, he is just a selfish selfish person who is just as greedy as himself.
If a person does not serve himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Human beings are creatures that act based on this desire.
Of course, they also use this benchmark to measure others.
In their eyes, Durandal is just an ambitious man who is trying to sway his way to power, waiting to oust them so that he can ascend to the throne.
There is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason. Are there any truly passionate people in the world? There should probably be some.
Those ignorant guys can at least be reckoned with. After all, if they weren't like this, they wouldn't be called ignorant people.
Time passed by every second.
The soldiers on both sides also gradually faded their smiles as time passed.
In the Minerva's storage bay, the pilots of eleven MSs boarded the cockpit early and stood ready.
ZAFT has made full preparations for this logos crusade.
Among them is the latest mobile phone, the Destiny Gundam Three, which Noel Cassia served as the mobile tester at the beginning.
The pilots are Shin Asuka, Heine Westenfruth, and Nicol Amalfi.
The Impulse Gundam was piloted by former Zaku Warriors pilot Luna Maria.
The Legendary Gundam was originally supposed to be piloted by Aslan Sala, but because Aslan rejected the new machine body, this mobile suit was piloted by Ray Za Barel.
Aslan Sala continues to pilot the Savior Gundam, and there are even some not-so-good gossips about this.
In addition, there are the Divine Zaku and the prototype Destiny Pulse Gundam piloted by members of the Integrated Development Bureau, Lena Sera Mirei and Courtney Hieronymus.
Marie Strau, Lika Sita, and Michal Koster drove the Fire Tiger 2000.
