"Secure the door! Now start searching the rooms and nearby areas!"
Armed soldiers ran through the aisles, shouting.
It seemed like he was probably a security guard at the base.
Meiling Hawke was about to walk back to the dormitory dormitory. When she saw this, she quickly leaned against the wall to let the group of people pass by first.
"It's best to capture him alive, but if you have to, shoot him on the spot!"
Meiling thought this sounded terrible.
I wonder what big thing happened?
After they walked away, Mei Ling hurried back to the room.
Outside the window, the swaying searchlight cut out the deep night.
She sat down at the table and turned on the computer.
"What's going on? What's the situation—?"
She connected to the intelligence center of the base and browsed the security information to see if there was any latest information that had been announced.
At this time, the door opened a crack, and a figure silently moved in through the crack.
Meiling was startled and jumped up in fright, but she saw the man's wet black hair, upright face, and red clothes——
"Aslan first...?"
The subconscious shout was muffled by the quietly covered palm.
Their faces were so close in an instant that Mei Ling could even see her own face in Aslan's green eyes.
"...I'm sorry, I just want to leave. Please...be quiet."
There was a sharp light in his eyes, but his tone was very calm. Meiling couldn't help but blush and nodded quickly.
Aslan then removed his hand.
In his other hand he held a rifle.
Her heart was beating fast. The object of her admiration was so close to her and made such a bold and sneaky move, which made Mei Ling's brain a mess.
She asked quietly in confusion:
"Are you...being hunted? Why..."
Will a hero and FAITH from the previous war be hunted?
Then Aslan spat angrily: "You can ask Lei again later."
"Huh?"
Meiling was stunned, why did she mention Lei's name at this time?
Aslan went to the window and peered out.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"Security Department, we need to check the room and open the door immediately!"
Meiling was startled again when she heard the roar outside the door.
Aslan's face darkened, and he lowered his voice and ordered her: "After I get out, you scream and say that I threatened you with a gun."
"Huh? Then..."
Seeing Aslan running towards the window, Mei Ling hurriedly grabbed him.
She suddenly remembered what she had just heard in the corridor - shoot if you have no choice...
If you go out now, you will be discovered!
But the security guard was already outside the door.
what to do?
Meiling's mind started spinning rapidly - what should I do? How to do……?
"Come!"
An idea flashed in her mind, and she immediately grabbed Aslan's arm and pulled him into the bathroom.
"--Hey! Isn't anyone here?"
The security guard outside the door was impatient.
"Ah, here it comes!
"
Meiling responded in a sweet voice, pretending to be panicked, while turning on the shower faucet in her hand.
Aslan asked in confusion: "What are you going to do...?"
"Shhh! Let me deal with it!"
Mei Ling pushed him behind the shower curtain and suddenly took off his uniform.
She caught a glimpse of Aslan being overwhelmed and blushing, but now was not the time to worry about such small things.
She ducked under the showerhead.
Aslan is being hunted.
If I don't handle it, he'll be shot!
After getting her hair wet, Meiling immediately wrapped herself in a bath towel and rushed out of the bathroom.
The timing was perfect.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw the security guards raising their feet, ready to break in.
"Ah! What...what are you doing! Disgusting!"
Pulling the towel tight around her body, Mei Ling lost her temper preemptively.
The security guards standing outside the door were all grown men. When they saw a naked girl, they froze there instantly.
Lunamaria happened to arrive at this moment. When she saw this scene, her voice rose an octave: "What are you doing!"
"Ah, sister!"
After Mei Ling met her supporter, she immediately cried to her sister.
"Because I was taking a shower just now, but they kept knocking on the door."
"Okay, okay, hurry up and put your clothes on!"
Luna Maria relieved her sister, then glared at the security guard.
"What about you? What do you want to do? Why are you making so much noise?"
"Well, it's not..."
"What do you want from my sister? What do you want to do?"
At this time, Meiling was so grateful to God for making her sister an elite in red clothes and giving her a strong and aggressive personality.
Seeing her sister's stern questioning, the security guard looked confused. She knew that someone had settled the deadlock outside the door, so she gently closed the door and locked it.
Finally passed.
As soon as she was relieved, Mei Ling suddenly felt weak in her knees and fell to the ground on the spot.
Only then did panic hit her, causing her to tremble and whimper.
The bathroom door opened and footsteps approached, but how could she dare to raise her head; her face was so hot that she was boiling when she thought of being naked in front of the person she admired.
Just when she was feeling ashamed, a light and soft bathrobe was draped over her body.
The gentle touch forced her to raise her eyes and saw Aslan's concerned smile in front of her.
"Thank you...but why?"
Why? Why could I do such an impulsive thing?
Meiling choked up and could only shake her head.
"I do not know either……"
Maybe it's because I like it.
I like this guy who is strong, smart, and capable of everything—but he always looks sad.
"But you saved me...I'm sorry."
Aslan finished speaking softly and stood up.
--He's leaving!
Mei Ling hurriedly reached out her hand and grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Aslan stumbled and turned around in surprise.
Mei Ling thought to herself that she couldn't let him leave like this. After finally getting through the crisis just now, she had to find a way to let him leave safely...
"To... to the hangar -"
Meiling blurted out the thoughts in her mind, but Aslan was confused.
"ah?"
"Wait me a moment……"
Forgetting that she was still shaking just now, Mei Ling jumped up and rushed to the table, suddenly typing on the keyboard.
"First invade the host of the base...and then find a random place to raise an alarm...!"
Aslan, who was watching stunned, showed an expression of realization at this moment.
As an operator specializing in communications technology, Mei Ling never imagined that her expertise would come in handy here.
All she could think about now was saving Aslan, and she had no time to think about guilt. As for the possibility that he had done something bad, Meiling didn't think about it at all.
A few minutes later, she successfully invaded the base host and activated the port's siren.
A sharp alarm bell sounded outside the dormitory, and footsteps were heard running in the corridor.
A sudden alarm made the base boil.
When Thalia arrived at the dormitory, Durandal's room was already covered in noise.
"I have ordered Zhen and Lei to dispatch. The most important thing is, can you find a way to prevent the commotion from expanding?"
Thalia walked through the room of soldiers coming and going, and walked into the office.
At this time, a soldier came in from behind Thalia and ran towards a non-commissioned officer in a panic.
"Report to the captain! We found the terminal that invaded the host."
He didn't notice that Thalia was also present, but hurriedly reported: "It's the computer in the dormitory of Minerva crew member Mei Ling Hawke."
There was an uproar among the officers, and Thalia was even more shocked.
―Meiling? Does she have anything to do with this?
"Minerva's?"
Durandal noticed Thalia, glanced at her quickly, and then immediately turned to the soldier: "-Where is she?"
"Not in the house, still looking for it."
After the soldier finished answering, Durandal asked Thalia again with his eyes.
Thalia shook her head.
Meiling and others should have moved into the dormitory tonight.
Could it be that she used the computer in the room to hack into the base host?
But seeing Durandal think for a while, he picked up the phone and dialed.
"Ray, did you see Meiling Hawke when you were chasing Aslan?"
It turned out that the call was to Lei, who was tracking Aslan.
Then Lei immediately answered: "Meiling Hawke and Aslan were together, and they are now."
Thalia gasped.
Durandal asked again doubtfully: "With Aslan?... Has she become a hostage?"
"No, I don't think so."
Lei's tone was calm, and he explained smoothly: "He covered Mei Ling, shot down my gun, and then reached out to Mei Ling before climbing into the cockpit of the Savior Gundam. Mei Ling ran away with him immediately."
"If she was a hostage, she would have escaped from Aslan at that time, but the ground didn't ask me for help - I think there should be surveillance video in the hangar."
―Meiling...escape with Aslan?
Thalia was completely confused. She didn't even know the reason for Aslan's escape.
Mei Ling Hawke is also one of the bridge crew members. Thalia cannot imagine that she would invade the base host and escape with Aslan.
Despite her confused thoughts, Durandal and Ray's conversation continued.
"You mean, she is not a hostage held by Aslan?"
"No, she is not."
Lei answered simply.
"She is an expert in intelligence and communications. If she is allowed to escape, I don't know how many secrets will be leaked. I don't know what happened yet, but I think we must prevent them from escaping - request permission to shoot down."
The situation evolved too quickly and suddenly. Thalia felt that she was blocked from the truth, so she hurriedly walked forward and interrupted: "Thunder! Just wait a moment-"
But before she could finish her words, Durandal answered directly through the communicator: "Really? I understand. I trust your judgment."
There was no hesitation on his face when he spoke.
"Permission to shoot down."
"speaker!"
Thalia couldn't help but stare at his handsome face.
Durandal just stared back calmly.
Unable to bear the pressure, Thalia looked away first.
"thank you."
Lei replied coldly and cut off the communication.
"You heard everything, right? Really—Heine, that's what happened."
"But...how could...!"
The conversation between Lei and the Speaker made Zhen hold his breath.
The red mobile suit flying ahead could be seen before his eyes.
And in that machine was not only Aslan, but also Meiling.
They were classmates in the military academy, and later she took on the role of MS controller, and she was Luna Maria's younger sister.
If what Ray said was true, she would have become an accomplice in Aslan's escape.
--How can it be! how come?
Even with Aslan's escape, Shin Asuka still couldn't figure out what was going on.
Gaining the deep trust of the Speaker, and being granted the latest fighter jet...
It's not that I don't believe Lei's testimony, I just think there must be a misunderstanding.
Ignoring the entanglement in Zhen Feiniao's heart, Lei calmly gave instructions: "Heine, go around from the right, Zhen Feiniao and I will outflank him."
"knew."
Heine didn't have too many emotional fluctuations, he just said indifferently.
"……thunder!"
Shooting down - If you want to shoot down Aslan and Meiling, you really can't do it!
Seeing Zhen Feiniao hesitate to move forward, Lei said again as if he was scolding: "Aslan's defection is already a fact. With his relationship with Orb, he must go to Orb, and with the information Mei Ling has, What if this incident destroys the peace wish of the Speaker and others!?”
The flying bird suddenly woke up.
――I have been thinking that after this war is over, I want to create a world like this.
He thought of Durandal's ideal.
A world where everyone can be happy.
There is no war, only peace.
No one will ever become a victim of war like his own family members.
When he heard the speaker's words, Shin Asuka secretly vowed to do everything he could to achieve his goal.
He also believed that only in this way could he live for his family and Stella.
so……
"How can we allow them to betray at this important juncture?!"
Lei's voice urged.
"……hateful!"
Shin Asuka bit his lip and started the jet thruster.
The Speaker's ideals and his own hopes - he couldn't let them come to nothing.
So, there is only one battle left.
Even if the other party is Aslan Sala.
But why did it happen like this...!
The beam passed over the Savior Gundam and shot into the sea.
In that fighter plane were Aslan and Meiling.
――I think you can do it.
He is the first person to identify himself——
Why? Why did he betray everyone?
Why do you want me to do this?
"Why are you doing this!"
The unwillingness in his heart turned into anger, and Zhen Feiniao shouted and activated the Glory Deliverer.
"This is the right thing to do."
Heine smiled faintly, and the orange-painted Destiny Gundam also raised the MMI-714 Arondette beam sword at this moment.
The muzzle of the Legend Gundam's back flips up.
Countless beams of light burst out and intertwined, forcibly intercepting the Savior Gundam.
Didi didi——
A shrill alarm sounded inside the Savior Gundam.
Turning around, a huge beam sword struck quickly in the dark night.
"Really, Heine, stop it!"
One to the left and one to the right, Aslan drove the machine and raised his shield to block the beam sword. At the same time, he raised his gun and fired continuously at the Destiny Gundam No. 1 driven by Asuka: "Are you also brainwashed?"
The beam gun's bullet bounced off in front of the high-altitude white-gray machine.
It turned out that Destiny Gundam Unit 1 blocked it with the light shield emitted from its left arm.
The communication just now could also be heard by the Savior Gundam - including the chorus of Ray and Durandal leading to the conclusion that there would be no mercy.
The order to shoot down even Meiling meant to silence her. For Aslan, who knew the truth, it was all just a farce.
Faced with Aslan's call to Zhen Feiniao, Lei still stopped him with a calm tone: "Your useless Aslan, you are trapping the beast and trying to fight!"
Six beams of light were fired around the disc on its back, nearly hitting the Savior Gundam.
Destiny Gundam Unit 2 also swung its sword at this moment, almost killing the Savior Gundam on the spot.
"Thunder! Heine!"
Anxiety gnawed at Aslan's nerves.
Although the Savior Gundam is a new machine, it is completely inferior to the most advanced Destiny and Legend.
Aslan glanced to the side and saw Meiling clutching the back of the chair with a pale face, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"Don't run away! Surrender!"
The cry of the true bird is full of impatience, and also mixed with a hint of prayer.
"Don't betray us! Come back to base!"
To the ignorant Shin Asuka, the situation in front of him probably just looked like Aslan's betrayal.
no! ——Aslan felt a sense of helpless annoyance and crisis.
Zhen Asuka and the others have completely fallen into the hands of the Speaker and Lei.
The real birds have obtained the most advanced aircraft and follow their instructions to eradicate all enemies.
Then, he will live a life like a weapon part, just like the United Enhanced Man: "Damn it..."
Aslan piloted the Savior Gundam to spin and avoid the beams of light that came one after another.
Turning around, he raised his shield to block the ship-cutting sword, and at the same time, he drew out his beam saber and rushed towards Zhen Asuka: "I will never go back and wait to die!"
Aslan knew very well that returning to the base would lead to death. To the Speaker, he was already a useless pawn, and knowing all his scams, he was undoubtedly a dangerous existence.
Not to mention Meiling, she will be silenced before a fair trial.
"What the Speaker and Lei said may sound right and pleasing to the ears! But sooner or later, their arguments will kill everything in this world!"
When all chaos gets a clue, all mysteries and doubts become simple and clear.
"Stop confusing people with your lies here! Since you don't want to go back and wait to die, then fall here, Aslan!"
After being intercepted, Heine's eyes turned cold. He unfolded the wings on his back and flipped the muzzle. The high-energy beam suddenly shot out and chased straight towards the Savior Gundam.
The Legend Gundam also flipped the dragoon muzzle on its back at this moment.
In the blink of an eye, countless beams of light intersected and enveloped the Savior Gundam.
Cah—bang—
The light scattered by the beam particles and the bursting fire of the machine lit up at the same time.
In the cockpit of the Savior Gundam filled with red light, Aslan's eyes were as sharp as knives, and the whites of his eyes were covered with blue.
Amid Mei Ling's frightened call, the Savior Gundam, which had lost its left arm and shield, flipped and rushed out of the smoke.
"The Female CEO's Almighty Soldier"
He ran into Zhen Asuka who was in a state of confusion.
"Get away!"
Aslan's roar brought Aslan back to his senses.
When he raised his head, he was still dragging the Fire Savior Gundam over and pulled out the beam saber.
歘——
The beam saber fell, the bird's hole shrank, and the beam shield popped out of its arm.
The moment the two collided, the Savior Gundam's momentum continued unabated. He raised his leg and kicked Destiny Gundam directly in the chest.
Destiny Gundam No. 1 was kicked straight away.
Didi didi——
"Aslan!"
Behind him, Heine's roar and the piercing siren sounded at the same time.
As he turned around, the "Arondette" beam sword fell towards him.
On the left, Legend Gundam also rushed in front of him.
The suffocating feeling of death struck Aslan's nerves, but he was so calm.
With a flash of coldness in his eyes, the plasma beam cannon on the back of the Savior Gundam flipped over and shot out towards Heine's body.
Boom——
The colorful beam shield lit up and blocked the beam cannon with his face.
Legend Gundam also came to the savior's side at this moment, raising his beam saber high.
Bang bang bang——
Suddenly, several beams of light flew from a distance.
Rumble——
Ray Za Barel piloted the machine body and raised his hand to catch the beam cannon that suddenly flew towards him.
