beep beep beep——
[The approach of the battleship's heat source is detected, and the signal is recognized - Nazca-class battleships, number three! 】
[MS heat source detection, quantity 25, signal recognition - Zaku Phantom, Fire Tiger...ZGMF-X3000Q Divine Zaku and trial type Destiny Gundam! ? 】
D'Agosta couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw the MS identification signal appearing on the screen.
"That guy Durandal is really giving me face."
Noel also discovered ZAFT reinforcements coming from a distance.
With the mighty battleships and the mobile suits at the forefront, it was obvious that Durandal really planned to make Lux and the Eternal disappear completely here.
But fortunately, Durandal still had shame and did not catch the main force of the earth. Otherwise, he would not dare to survive under the siege of two Destiny and Legend, as well as several Divine Zaku and Trial Destiny.
The new humanity is also a human being, not a god.
"That machine?"
In the cockpit of Shenyizhagu, Lina Serra Mirons couldn't help but be slightly startled when she looked at the identification signal detected on the radar.
ZGMF-X12A, isn’t this Captain Noel’s landline? Why is it here?
"court death!"
Courtney Hieronymus looked at the fake Red Death with slightly cold eyes.
Driving the prototype Destiny, he rushed forward.
His relationship with Noel was not a good one, and the two of them had not worked together for a long time. At best, they could only be regarded as superiors and subordinates.
But he still maintains due respect for Noel.
Now seeing an unknown guy driving Noel's landline to massacre friendly troops here, a trace of anger arose in his heart.
The swarming MS troops immediately launched an attack.
Behind the prototype Destiny Gundam, the sky-wide beam of light swept across both sides of the prototype Destiny Gundam and hit the Eternity.
At this moment, the prototype Destiny Gundam dragged its afterimage to the sword-suited covenant.
boom--
The two anti-ship knives collided together, and the huge recoil caused the sword-equipped Covenant body to move back.
The physical performance of the sword-equipped Covenant is not even the slightest bit worse than that of the prototype Destiny.
Bang bang bang——
At the same time, the divine Zaku Dragoons ejected and surrounded the sword-equipped covenant.
The dragoons' muzzles burst.
A shower of light beams completely enveloped the sword-equipped covenant.
The sword-equipped covenant flipped lightly in the beam, evading, and counterattack——
In the sword-mounted covenant cockpit, sweat gradually seeped out from Noel's forehead.
The body that has not fully recovered gradually reveals its shortcomings in the high-intensity battle.
The body's reaction force begins to go downhill.
beep beep beep——
Just as the sword-mounted Covenant had just avoided the beam, the trial Destiny Gundam struck again.
The ship-cutting knife suddenly fell.
boom--
boom--
The next second, the sword-mounted covenant anti-ship knife broke and exploded.
Stab——
Even though Noel quickly made evasive maneuvers while piloting the aircraft, his left shoulder was still cut off by the anti-ship sword.
"It's indeed a fake!"
With one strike, Courtney Hieronimus was more certain that the person sitting in the opposite machine was not Captain Noel, but a guy who was using Captain Noel's coat to commit murder.
The Radiant Advancer system is activated.
The prototype Destiny Gundam swung its sword again and charged towards the sword-suited covenant.
Shenyi Zhagu also raised his gun and struck at this moment.
Upon seeing this, Andrew quickly raised his gun to cover.
"Noel, go to the Eternal!"
While covering the line of fire, Andrew said: "Go get your new machine and come back!"
"Be careful not to die!"
Noel thought of something immediately after hearing this.
As he spoke, he threw a beam boomerang at the experimental Destiny, then forced it through the beam and flew towards the Eternity.
"Damn it, I won't die even if you die!"
As Andrew cursed angrily, he turned around while driving Gaia and raised his gun to shoot at the Zaku warriors who were preparing to attack the Eternity.
Upon hearing this, Lux quickly turned around and ran to the elevator.
"Lux?"
Noel had just flown out of the cockpit, without even taking off his helmet, when he saw a pink figure appearing in front.
"Noel!"
With the force of the flying impact, Lux plunged into Noel's arms.
Putting her hands around Noel's body, feeling the reality coming from her arms, Lux's restless heart gradually calmed down.
"sorry."
After a brief moment of astonishment, Noel reached out and stroked Lux's long hair and whispered, "I'm back."
Lux raised her head, with moist eyes, her blue-purple eyes reflected Noel's face across the screen in her mind, and a slightly fighting voice slowly sounded: "Welcome back."
"As long as you're okay."
While at the Pillar of Heaven, Noel vaguely heard the news of the attack on the Eternal.
At that moment, he felt so uneasy.
He was well aware of Durandal's murderous intention towards Lux, so he forcefully boarded Mina's battleship with serious injuries.
Fortunately, everything caught up.
"By the way, where is the machine?"
Noel recovered from his sentimentality. Now was not the time to reminisce.
Andrew couldn't hold on for long.
Lux's eyes darkened, she took Noel's arm and turned to lead the way forward, saying: "Follow me."
At this time, the Eternal was under attack, and violent tremors came from the outside of the ship.
The two of them walked forward with support and came to a gate.
Lux, who was leading the way, opened the gate, and Noel jumped into the hangar after her. A huge shadow came into view.
A steel god with wings on his back.
Although the details are different, the familiar basic appearance is unmistakable to Noel.
This is his own red death.
"Thanks a lot."
Noel looked at the girl standing next to him and said softly: "Leave the rest of the battle to me."
"Noel..."
Lux's expression was a little unreal, as if it would disappear at any time.
At this time, she was no longer the resolute leader, but more like many women who were forced to send their lovers to the battlefield, with uneasiness and sadness swaying in her eyes.
When she learned about Noel's death, her heart collapsed. It was a different emotion than when she learned about her father's death.
It's like suffocation as if a piece of my heart has been ripped out.
"I'll be back soon, wait for me."
As Noel spoke, he let go of Lux's hand, turned around and floated towards the steel figure in front of him.
There were tears in Lux's clear eyes, and she opened her mouth to speak, but in the end she couldn't say anything. She could only hold her retracted palm tightly and put it on her chest to pray secretly.
Noel got into the cockpit.
Turn on the power and quickly check all functions.
"——CPC setting is completed, nerve center connections and ion concentrations are normal, and high-order cortical motor domain parameters are updated..."
The body gradually regained its vitality.
The sound of engines began to fill the cockpit.
The basic controls of the machine are the same as those of the Old Testament Gundam.
Looking at the weapon settings of the machine, Noel had a smile on his face.
Inheriting ZAFT's latest second-generation series technology, the already powerful machine seems to be even more powerful.
This is a machine that is truly its own.
[...The atomic furnace is critical and the power flow is normal! 】
[There is no abnormality in the whole system. 】
The aircraft body was sent to the ejection runway, and the gate slowly opened to the enemy.
[The channel is clear! 】
[The system is all green! 】
[ZGMF-X22A——Eternal Covenant, please attack! 】
As Lux's announcement came, the green takeoff light lit up.
Looking at the starry sky that would never twinkle, Noel's eyes gradually became firm.
"Noel Cassia - ZGMF-X22A Eternal Testament, attack!"
The ejection device carried the Covenant Gundam and rushed out of the battleship.
The VPS system starts.
A bright red color like blood covered the body.
The Death Scythe paint on the shoulder shines with dazzling gold.
