"Yo, Kira," Sei Itō, who had just walked out of Lux's room, called out to Kira, who was loitering outside the door.
"Lieutenant Sei Itō," Kira hurriedly put away the expression on his face when he heard the greeting, and called out softly.
"Are you looking for Lux?" Sei Itō tapped his feet lightly and floated in front of Kira.
"Yes," Kira nodded honestly and admitted.
"I understand." Sei Itō sized up Kira in front of him, and a look of realization appeared on his face. Then, he suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around Kira's neck, and whispered into his ear, "Then I won't disturb you. Remember to work hard! I believe that with the help of the Peach Blossom Talismans I sold, you'll definitely be able to get a girl. "
After saying that, he let go of his arm around Kira's neck and turned around to float towards the bridge. Kira, who was blushing from Sei Itō's teasing, wanted to explain, but when he saw Sei Itō quickly float away, he opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end. He stayed silent on the spot for a while, then floated to Lux's room, opened the door, and walked in.
Since that day, Sei Itō would basically find some time to run to Lux's room every day and pretend to be an idiot to tease her. During that time, he would reach out and grab her little hand to take advantage of her, causing Lux, who had been pretending to be innocent, to suffer greatly. It wasn't that she hadn't seen Sei Itō and Kira chatting happily, but with Kira's easily shy personality, he would take the initiative to leave every time he saw Sei Itō, completely unconsciously creating opportunities for Sei Itō to tease Lux.
"This is the signal sent by the Eighth Fleet." Just as Sei Itō was sitting in the bridge and doing his duty out of boredom, the CIC communicator beside him suddenly shouted.
"Is that right?" Margaret hurriedly got up from the captain's seat and floated to the CIC behind her, and asked anxiously.
"It can't be wrong. This is the signal wavelength of the Eighth Fleet of the Earth Corps," the CIC confidently said.
"Can you trace it?" Hearing the CIC's words, Bucky Lulu also floated up from her seat and quickly went around Sei Itō to the CIC's side and asked anxiously.
"I'm trying," the CIC said.
"Begin deciphering!" Under the nervous gaze of Margaret and Bucky Lulu. The CIC, who had just quieted down, spoke again.
"Shasha … This is … Shasha … Vanguard … Eighth Fleet … Shasha … Commander Monte … Shasha … Archangel … Please answer …" A man's voice came out of the communicator.
"It's Commander Harbarton's troops!" Margaret said excitedly.
After hearing Margaret's words's words. All the personnel on duty in the bridge were excited. One after another, they flew out from their posts and gathered beside CIC. "Are they looking for us?" "Is it Major Monte's team?" "That's great!"
.. and '' ''s's's. The CIC quickly operated the communicator a few times and used professional knowledge to determine the specific location of the signal transmission source, then said, "They are still some distance away from us."
"But as long as we meet smoothly, we can finally rest assured," the staff said nonchalantly.
Not long after receiving the communication, the news that they were about to meet with the advance team quickly spread among the soldiers and civilians on the Archangel. The depressing atmosphere caused by the escape in the past few days immediately became lively.
In the excitement of everyone on the Archangel, the next day came in the blink of an eye, which was February 7th. At this time, the distance between the Archangel and the advance team was not far, and the two could finally communicate in real-time as usual.
"… The fleet will arrive at the rendezvous location at the scheduled time. After the rendezvous, the Archangel will meet with the main force at the designated location under the command of the fleet. " On the screen, the head of the advance team, Major Monte, said to everyone, "We will be there soon, I wish you all a safe arrival."
"I'm George Alstar, the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs of the Atlantic Confederation," after Major Monte finished speaking, the screen suddenly expanded. A man in a suit next to him appeared in front of everyone's eyes, only to hear him say, "First of all, allow me to express my gratitude for your efforts in saving the civilians. Ah … also, I was pleasantly surprised to find my daughter Frey's name on the list of civilians. I hope to meet her now."
George Alstar had just finished his words. Before everyone on the Archangel recovered from the shock, Major Monte next to him said, "Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs, you will see her immediately after the rendezvous."
"He is such a person, Frey's father," listening to the conversation from the screen, Saii chuckled and said.
"I finally know why you bought the Amulet of Marriage from me. It must be hard for you to have such a father-in-law," Sei Itō next to him turned to look at Saii and teased her.
"Uhh …" Saii looked at Sei Itō next to her and sighed helplessly. At the same time, she thought to herself, "I just finished talking about Frey's father, and now I'm being exposed. Karma really comes quickly."
"We are finally going to rendezvous," after the communication ended, a low-ranking officer said.
Then, the Archangel accelerated and flew toward the designated rendezvous location at high speed. After half a day, when the Archangel was about to arrive at the designated area, Rommel, who was in charge of the radar monitoring, suddenly said loudly, "It's neutron interference! It's coming from the area. "
As soon as this was said, everyone in the bridge was shocked. Fortunately, they only detected neutron interference and did not detect any heat source. Therefore, everyone in the bridge was more or less relaxed. They just thought that it was a neutron interference device that Zaft scattered in the universe. But after a few minutes, this relaxed feeling completely disappeared and was replaced by a strong sense of urgency.
"There's a similar heat distribution in front of us. It's estimated to be the advance team!" Another radar monitoring officer said loudly.
"Wang Duo Meini calling." Then, CIC's voice sounded loudly, "Terminate the rendezvous. Order the Archangel to immediately turn around and retreat. "
"Captain," Bucky Lulu looked up at Marlene and called out, waiting for her decision.
"How strong is the enemy?" Marlene did not immediately answer Bucky Lulu. Instead, she asked the radar monitoring officer anxiously.
"Yellow 557, Maku402, Nazca class. Heat distribution, three Gold," the radar monitoring officer replied loudly. "Wait a minute, this is … Holy Shield! Gatx303 Holy Shield Gundam! "
Hearing this, everyone was immediately shocked. The Holy Shield did not only represent the Holy Shield Gundam itself. It also represented a team, a team that gave the Earth army a headache, the Cruze team.
"You said that's a Nazca class?" At this time, Marlene recalled the radar monitoring officer's information about the enemy's warship class and anxiously confirmed it again.
"Yes," the radar monitoring officer confirmed.
"Captain!" Following the two reports, the situation was clear. At this time, the situation had become very obvious, so Buggy Lulu raised her head again and called out to Marlene, hoping that she would make the right choice.
"If it's that warship …" Dole turned to look at Marlene and said.
"Even if we turn around now, we can't guarantee that we can escape," Marlene said in a deep voice. She was explaining to everyone and also confirming the choice in her heart. Then Marlene looked up with a firm expression and ordered loudly, "All personnel first combat equipment! Archangel, go cover the advance fleet. "
As soon as Marlene's words fell, an urgent alarm immediately sounded in the Archangel. Then, Mu, who did not need to prepare anything, immediately flew out of the Archangel in his Ma and quickly flew toward the battlefield where the advance fleet was located. Not long after he set off, the Assault Gundam also flew out of the Archangel and rushed toward the battlefield at high speed.
"Barrette, fire." Just after the Assault Gundam flew out, Bucky Lulu immediately ordered loudly.
As soon as Bucky Lulu's voice fell, two beams emitting yellow light shot out from the Archangel. In the blink of an eye, it passed through the battlefield and hit a Jindan near the Megami, blasting it into a pile of space trash.
But just as one Jindan was destroyed, the Holy Shield Gundam immediately returned to its original color. A thick beam of scarlet light suddenly shot out from the center of the Holy Shield Gundam, which had transformed into a four-legged squid. In an instant, it pierced through a Ma-type frigate. A violent explosion immediately broke the corvette into two and sent it flying into the distance.
At this time, the Assault Gundam that flew out of the Archangel finally arrived at the battlefield and attracted the attention of the Holy Shield Gundam that had just destroyed a frigate. The Holy Shield Gundam that had transformed back into its human form immediately went up to the Assault Gundam. The two immediately pounced on each other and shot at each other with their beam guns.
Although Mu Suo's Ma Zero and Kira's Assault Gundam had joined the battle to share the pressure of the vanguard fleet, the vanguard fleet's strength was too weak. The specially equipped Ma Zero was like a moving target. From the start of the battle until now, other than leaving some smoke and scratches on the Jindan's outer shell, they did not even leave any major damage on the Jindan's body. On the other hand, they were easily killed by the Jindan like little chicks. On the other hand, Mu Suo's Ma Zero destroyed a Jindan as soon as it arrived on the battlefield. However, another Jindan immediately seized the opportunity and fired a shot at the Ma Zero. Similarly, the Jindan did not have an easy time and was instantly destroyed by the Ma Zero's four auxiliary weapon boxes.
The heavily injured Ma Zero naturally could not continue to fight on the battlefield and could only hurriedly fly back to the Archangel …
Inside the bridge …
"Main Cannon No. 1, ready, fire!" Bucky Lulu ordered.
"Where's Captain Flagg?" Marlene asked.
"The Type Zero is returning. Body damaged." Communications Officer Mirialia quickly reported.
"Wesaris's missile is approaching the Archangel." The radar monitoring officer said loudly.
"Flay!" Kaz looked at Flay who suddenly floated into the bridge and exclaimed in a low voice. In this tense atmosphere, Marlene who was very sensitive to any sound immediately heard Kaz's exclamation. She discovered Flay who floated in and turned her head to look at her.
"Flay." Sei also discovered Flay who was floating towards her. She quickly stood up from her chair and hugged Flay who was floating towards her as she called out softly.
"Daddy, where's daddy's ship?" Flay stared at the optical screen and asked anxiously.
"We are currently in battle. Non-combatants, please leave the bridge." Marlene said to Flay in a deep voice.
"Which ship is daddy's? How is it? " Flay's mind was currently filled with only her daddy. She could not hear anything else as she asked loudly.
"Flay." Sei hugged Flay and called out softly.
"What are you doing? Let go of me." Flay struggled.
At this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up on the optical screen that had been showing the situation of the battlefield, attracting everyone's attention. Then, on the screen, the middle section of a battleship's hull exploded violently, slowly breaking into two halves from the middle. Under the force of the explosion, the two halves flew out to both sides.
"The Archangel has been sunk." The radar monitoring officer said softly.
"Flay, let's go. You can't stay here. Hurry up." Flay was completely stunned by the scene on the screen. Her eyes were wide open as she stared blankly at the optical screen. Sei who was beside Flay immediately hugged her and said anxiously. After saying that, she pushed Flay out of the bridge.
Just as Flay and Sei floated to the entrance of the bridge, the radar monitoring officer anxiously reported again, "Two Archangels are approaching the Megamene. Number of Mk remaining: 1."
Not long after he finished reporting, the remaining Mk was destroyed by the Archangels. After that, the Archangels who were no longer obstructed by the Archangels immediately flew toward the surrounding warships. They used the weapons in their hands to destroy the main cannons of the warships one after another, eliminating the final defense. At the same time, the Archangel which was the only remaining warship naturally attracted the attention of the Archangels. Several Archangels surrounded and attacked it.
"Boom!" A missile bombarded the Archangel, causing the entire ship to tremble.
"Prepare to fire the Positron Destruction Cannon. The Archangels are coming. What about the assault?" Bakilulu said anxiously.
"Captain, we can't do this anymore. If we don't retreat now, we won't be able to protect our ship." Mu who was guarding the Archangel with his injured body said to Marlene through the communication device.
"But …" Marlene looked at the Megamene on the screen and said hesitantly.
Just as Marlene was hesitating, Flay who was wearing a pink dress returned to the bridge. However, this time, her right hand was tightly grabbing the innocent-looking Lux's left arm. She dragged Lux to the side of the CIC. With a serious and fierce expression, she said loudly, "Kill this girl! Tell those bastards that if they open fire on daddy's ship, kill this girl! Hurry up and tell them! "
In an instant, everyone was stunned by Flay's words. They never thought that the usually extreme, selfish, arrogant and weak Flay would suddenly become like this. She had become so unfamiliar and terrifying.
