"This is the sky above the Paradise Island base! There are only about three hours left before the response deadline set by Speaker Durandal - however, there has been no response from the coalition military so far!"
Set against a bird's-eye view of Iceland, the correspondent's voice is being broadcast around the world.
The large groups of fleets on the sea are quietly waiting for the response, and the combined fleets arrayed on the sea are also ready to go.
"...If no response is received before the deadline, Speaker Durandal will become the supreme commander on the front line and personally command ZAFT and the anti-LOGOS alliance forces to immediately launch an attack on the Paradise Island base."
"Paradise Island Base is a major stronghold of the Alliance Army. The base is huge and famous for its military factories. If this battle really starts, it can be predicted that the offensive between the two sides will be very fierce..."
At this point in the reporter's broadcast, the camera turned to land and focused on the huge base facilities lined with large and small buildings.
This scene has been played repeatedly on TV for more than an hour.
This time, however, the camera captured the changes on land.
The combined fleets, which formed a defensive line facing the ocean, shot out rows of objects that trailed white smoke into the sky.
Almost at the same time, Baator's cry sounded on the Minerva.
"The enemy launched a missile!"
The air on the bridge suddenly condensed.
"What--?"
Arthur stared at the screen and cried out in horror.
Even Durandal's expression changed drastically, and he asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"
The fleet deployed on the ocean launched anti-aircraft fire a little later, and the lines of fire immediately intercepted each other in the air, but those unprepared ships became the first target of the land barrage.
The missiles were seen ferociously attacking the ships that had no time to respond, exploding into tall pillars of fire. Before these people could even grasp the situation, they saw countless light spots rising in the direction of the land.
"MS and MA fleets are approaching! The attack has begun!"
A menacing group of fighter planes immediately appeared on the screen.
Compared to the anti-LOGOS allies who were waiting for an answer, the United Alliance launched the offensive without even saying a word.
Thalia couldn't help gritting her teeth.
It was all because I was too stupid. I didn’t expect that the opponent would play his cards so irrationally, let alone that the enemy was someone whom I couldn’t communicate with through words!
"How could such a thing happen - that bastard Jibril!"
Durandal couldn't help but curse.
The general on the side interrupted anxiously and asked: "Speaker, if this happens...!"
"Ok, I know."
A cold light appeared in Durandal's eyes.
He shouted loudly to the people who were still stunned: "The situation forces us to start fighting immediately!"
The bridge immediately became busy.
In addition to issuing orders to each unit, the general also did not forget to tell the communications officer: "Tell the airborne landing troops to prepare for dispatch!"
ZAFT and the upper echelons of anti-LOGOS finally began to operate.
Unfortunately, due to the sudden preemptive attack, many terminal combat units fell off or even lost contact in the chaos, making the order take more time to reach.
If you take this step slowly, you will inevitably greatly affect the situation of the battle.
"Issuing a red alert! Prepare for a general battle!"
Thalia also gave her orders.
She stared at the large group of enemy planes approaching from the sea, unable to hide her anxious eyes.
"Issuing a red alert! Issuing a red alert! Drivers please go to the phone and be on standby!"
Inside the ship where the alarm was blaring, Thalia was so stunned that she forgot to breathe, because the huge burst of light on the screen spread so fiercely that it almost burned her retinas.
When the flash of light receded, an unexpected large hole appeared in the fleet formation that was spread out like an iron wall on the front line.
Witnessing dozens of ships disappearing in an instant, no one made a sound as if the air on the bridge had been drained out at the same time.
"This is so...!"
Durandal's thin lips also trembled.
"That is……!"
Thalia looked ahead and was shocked again when she saw a group of shadows moving rapidly on the sea.
The devil in Berlin—it’s that large mobile suit!
Why is there more than one?
Just thinking this, Bator, who had read the heat pattern, shouted at the same time:
"Ten aircraft of the same type were discovered!"
Thalia shivered.
Arthur shouted in horror: "What, that thing has a cross?"
Recalling the overwhelming lethality she witnessed at that time, Thalia almost felt like she had seen it before her eyes.
Ten Destruction Gundams flew out from the base.
The Clash Thirteen high-energy cannon was activated, and twenty beams comparable to the main guns of a battleship streaked across the sea.
In an instant, the tsunami rolled and flames shot into the sky.
The battle officially begins.
The surviving battleships of the LOGOS alliance immediately dispatched MS units to launch an assault.
Many red light spots appeared in the sky, gradually getting closer and bigger.
At this time, the Nibelungen command room also monitored this scene.
"There is ZAFT Army's airborne capsule directly above! Deploy it on path 26 to 31."
When the operator reported this, the airborne capsules falling from the sky like countless meteors had already spread out, threatening to surround the base.
However, no one in the command room was panicked. They only heard the commander calmly order: "Prepare to launch!"
Jibril watched all this in the glass-curtained VIP room, with a leisurely smile on his face.
"Whether it's impeachment or idealism, everything has to be successful to make sense."
The group of Destruction Gundams on the screen were wreaking havoc unscrupulously. He narrowed his eyes and boasted: "Since ancient times, the winner has been the king and the loser has been the bandit."
If others want to call him mean or coward, let them do so! Look at the stupid hypocrite lying in the coffin and the cowardly person enjoying happiness in the world. Of course, the latter is much stronger.
As long as he can win the competition, he can defeat all criticism, and no one dares to criticize him anymore. After all, justice in this world is not always on the side of the winner.
In the back, Preya, who had been standing on guard in the room, silently admired Jibril's performance.
The machines that were exploding all the time on the screen made him gradually smile.
"Countdown to Nibelungen launch begins!"
"Camouflage gates open."
The snow hills outside the base suddenly moved, and the snow on the slopes was shaken and slid down, raising large amounts of snow dust.
The hill is divided into two in the middle, and a mirror structure is exposed from the ground. It is like a giant waking up from hibernation in the snow, opening his one eye to peek out.
The huge eyes slowly rotated, taking the capsule group from the sky into sight.
"Illumination angle 20 to 32! Ready to launch."
At this time, countless small capsules exploded, and Zaft's mobile suit emerged from them. The scene was like countless insects hatching out of a cocoon.
After a while, it was covered in the sky.
However--
The order to kill was sounded at the headquarters.
"--emission!"
The antenna in the center of the mirror emits a flash of light, which is repeatedly refracted on the curved mirror surface. The light waves quickly merge together and shine straight into the sky.
The dish-shaped antenna angle can cover the entire area above the base, and it is also a wide-angle laser wave generating device.
The giant eye blinked, and the MS fleet that filled the sky was immediately surrounded by a burst of white light.
Thalia and the others looked up at the sky, motionless.
In the halo, every MS in the airborne fleet was engulfed, burned, and crashed by tinder at the same time, leaving countless white tracks on the dark sky in the north.
"This is...! How could it be!"
Arthur was speechless, which made the sinking on the bridge seem particularly cold.
"The airborne troops...are all wiped out...!"
Bato's voice when reporting the situation was also trembling.
This was the reinforcement they relied on, the mobile firepower that could turn the tide of the battle, but now it was all wiped out in an instant.
Shock and anger made Durandal's upright face distorted, and he cursed angrily in an unacceptable tone that he had never used before: "There is such a thing...! Damn LOGOS!"
It's time to retreat... Thalia thought.
First, we suffered a sudden preemptive attack, and our side was already shaken. If the airborne troops were deployed as planned, we could reorganize the front line in time.
However, these reinforcements were completely destroyed by surprise. She could imagine that the friendly forces had completely lost their will to fight, and with those giant mobile weapons approaching, this constituted a substantial defeat.
The United Volunteer Army in the rear is beginning to make moves. Sooner or later, they will flee the front. It is better to retreat temporarily at this moment and have a chance to regroup the entire army.
But at this moment, a communication came from the MS in the hangar.
It's Ray Za Barel and Shin Asuka.
"Captain, I'm going to attack! Please give the order quickly!"
Zhen·Asuka probably also saw that horrific attack scene.
But he still asked for the order to attack, his red eyes blazing with anger.
"We can't allow this to happen anymore!"
"Wait a minute. Now—"
The word "retreat" flashed through Thalia's mind, and she originally wanted to press her true impulse first.
But he saw Durandal on the side looking deeply at the young man and others on the screen.
"please."
Thalia suddenly turned around and saw that Durandal also had a determined look on his face.
It was immediately clear that he was not going to retreat here.
She gritted her teeth and swallowed the words she was about to say.
Durandal continued to issue orders: "Destiny, Legend, Divine Will, Savior, Pulse, Fire Tiger... All MS units on this ship are dispatched!"
Thalia couldn't accept the way Durandal looked at the boys.
However, in order to overturn the current disadvantage, only the most cutting-edge MS can create such a miracle.
The Minerva's floodgates are activated.
Destiny Gundam, Divine Will Zaku, Legend Gundam...all available combat power have been put into the battlefield.
In the direction of the Main Angel, the Freedom Gundam also left the Main Angel and flew towards the battlefield ahead.
Upon seeing this, the allied forces from the rear who were attacking LOGOS also rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, the Destiny Gundam and others in the vanguard came into contact with the Destruction Gundam.
About ten minutes later.
It seems that their hard work had an effect, and the situation of the battle suddenly turned for the better.
The ZAFT army and allied mobile suits, which were originally in decline, followed them into the enemy formation.
The maritime fleet also launched intensive bombardments to block the enemy's defense line.
In the sea, the coalition's underwater MS Forbidden Abyss was in close contact with Eshu, Geogn and other aircraft. The Esshu that took the lead in suppressing the enemy force had successfully landed and began to advance towards the base.
At the same time, Dean and Barbie were still working hard to contain the airspace of the base, which of course became the target of those giant fighters. A giant fighter plane transformed into an MA form and turned around, pointing the beam cannon on the upper edge of the aircraft at the group of fighters in the air.
Before it could fire, Ray's Legend Gundam cut off the barrel of the gun with a beam saber. Luna Maria took advantage of the enemy plane being distracted by the blow and slashed at its disc with the sword.
Seeing the enemy plane's armor cracked, she immediately jumped aside, and then fired the beam into the crack.
The enemy plane's dome-shaped armor was squeezed and bulged by the swelling velvet, and then exploded outwards. The huge body of more than thirty meters instantly turned into a pillar of fire, causing a big explosion while falling towards the base.
Aslan also relied on his knowledge of the Destruction Gundam and Kira to besiege the Destruction Gundam.
In the blink of an eye, a Gundam of Destruction followed suit.
Heine and Nigel shot it down one by one.
With the destruction of Destruction Gundam.
ZAFT's MS troops and the anti-LOGOS coalition's MS began a large-scale landing operation.
Under the attack of twelve elite machines, LOGOS's defense line became vulnerable.
At this moment, a submarine left the Paradise Island base and sank into the deep sea.
"Damn Durandal——I haven't lost to you yet! Don't be too happy too early!"
Thinking of the enemy's fair face, Jibril's face in the back seat showed a ferocious expression.
Preia, who escorted Jibril away, didn't say anything after hearing this. He just silently took out the potion he carried with him and paid it down with his head raised.
LOGOS, who lost Jibril, quickly stopped resisting.
At this point, the Battle of Paradise Island, which lasted three hours and fifty-six minutes, ended with the victory of ZAFT and the anti-LOGOS coalition.
However, because of Jibril's successful escape, the crusade against LOGOS has not stopped.
"——The battle seems to be over."
When he heard the operator relaying the communication from Earth, Andrew's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Lux on the side looked back with bated breath, and a cold silence fell on the bridge of the Eternal.
"result?"
Lux asked solemnly.
The operator replied: "The Union surrenders."
"The base on Paradise Island has been lost——"
Andrew sighed sadly.
In today's battle, both armies suffered countless sacrifices. Countless lives were lost in just a few hours. This alone makes people feel heavy.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard Lux muttering to herself in a stiff tone: "We have to hurry up..."
The melancholy on her face was a little different, and she seemed to have a more urgent sense of crisis.
Andrew noticed something was wrong and asked aloud: "What's wrong, Lux?"
"After the Paradise Island base falls, Orb will come next!"
As Lux spoke, she stroked the ring on her fingertips with a particularly determined expression: "No matter what the cost, I will bring a world full of bright red and singing!"
"Lux..."
Andrew looked at the expression on Lux's face and felt a little complicated.
They had all heard about Noel Cassia, but they really didn't know how to comfort this strong princess.
Earth--
"Dibril is missing?"
Hearing the news brought by Ray Za Barel, Zhen Feiniao couldn't help but screamed in the saloon.
Aslan and others also looked shocked, obviously they had just learned the news.
Lunamaria on the side asked anxiously: "Didn't you catch it...how could it be!"
Only Lei Yi looked as calm as usual: "I heard that he secretly escaped by himself before the base surrendered, leaving behind the other members of LOGOS -"
The Battle of Paradise Island Base ended with the ZAFT camp's victory. The Allied Forces immediately occupied the land base and accepted the surrender of the base commander and other generals and LOGOS members.
Just after hearing that those people were detained, Ray Za Barel brought unexpected news.
For a moment, everyone was stunned and silent.
I thought this would end everything.
But now the biggest villain has escaped.
"Why is this...what should we do?"
Luna Maria asked a little angrily.
"I don't know. But it won't end if we don't catch him."
At this point, Lei sighed worriedly: "Just don't escape to some troublesome place again - like Panama or Victoria."
His words shocked everyone.
Panama and Victoria are both home to joint spaceports.
If Gigi Brill reaches out to the universe, PLANT will be in danger.
