Behind the huge meteorite, three space battleships from Zaft's command were quietly hiding there. Like lurking beasts before hunting, they stared closely at the slowly rotating colonial satellite Heliopolis in the distance.
In the flagship of this small fleet, the Nazca class high-speed battleship Vissali, Kreutzer was looking at the photos from the special communication channel in his hand.
Although the silver mask he wore made the teenagers standing in front of him unable to see Kreutzer's expression, the dignified aura emitted from his body made the teenagers unable to help but raise their spirits.
"Is that so?"
After a long time, Kreutzer seemed to sigh and scattered the photos in his hand towards the teenagers.
When the scattered photos fell into the hands of the teenagers in the micro-gravity environment, Kreutzer sneered a few times.
"The joint action is faster than I thought! Aslan, Y 'Zak, it seems that your request for early service is really coincidental! "
In the hands of Aslan and Yitzhak were pictures of different Steel Giants with V-shaped lines on their faces.
“MS！？ Earth United's MS! "
Y 'Zak exclaimed and looked up at Kreutzer.
Under the silver mask was a cold smile.
Kreutzer nodded slowly.
"Yes! Earth United has completed the offline work of the new MS. According to intelligence, Earth United even quietly sent one of the new MS out of Heliopolis 12 hours ago to the moon base to prepare for testing. "
"What! We should … "
Hearing this, Y 'Zak hurriedly said what was in his heart.
But before he could say half of it, he was stopped by Aslan.
"Captain! That airframe should have already fallen into the hands of our Zaft?! "
Aslan's words made Y 'Zak, Diego, Nigor and the others look sideways, and also made Kreutzer show a smile of approval.
"Yes! Speaking of which, in the list of personnel in charge of this intelligence, there is a name that you are very familiar with. "
Kreutzer did not immediately say the result of the intelligence operation, but instead attracted the attention of Aslan, Y 'Zak and the others to another direction.
"Someone we are familiar with?"
Everyone looked at each other and smiled, confused for a moment.
"Hehe. Ray Mingkai. Do you still remember this name? "
Kreutzer smiled softly and revealed the mystery.
"What?!"
Hearing this name, Aslan, Y 'Zak and the others were stunned.
Especially Y 'Zak, he did not expect that Ray Mingkai, who suddenly disappeared from the military academy, would appear in Heliopolis and pass such important information here.
"I heard that it was an order from the chairman himself. It seems that Ray Mingkai did a good job! Moreover, Lei Mingkai had already intercepted the new MS that had been sent away in advance. Calculating the time, the cargo ship intercepted by Lei Mingkai and the others should have already converged with Zaft's patrol fleet. "
After a short pause, Kreutzer looked at the youths who had just walked out of the military academy. Their faces were still immature.
"Then, now, it's our turn. Aslan, Yitzhak, Diego, Nigor, your classmates have already taken the lead to stand on this battlefield. Do you have the confidence to complete your mission? "
"Yes!"
Without hesitation, after knowing that Ray Mingkai was one step ahead of them and robbed Earth's new MS, even the usually indecisive Aslan could not help but feel a surge of hot blood.
"Very good! Aslan, Kreutzer, Y 'Zak, Kreutzer, and Lasti, you are in charge of snatching Earth's new MS, and the others are in charge of covering them. Understand? "
"Yes!"
The gears of fate were still spinning in their original trajectory.
But the gears had already shown signs of deviating from their trajectory.
In the dark void, a silver-gray steel giant with sharp edges and a huge Gatling shield shuttled through Zaft's third patrol fleet.
Every time it drew a trajectory, it would surprise everyone in the patrol fleet.
"This is Earth's new MS? It looks like it's the same thing!! "
Zeon's team, who had just come down from the outer guard shift, looked at the silver-gray body that was undergoing a maneuver test from afar.
"Propulsion output 80%, propulsion system is working well! Energy output is stable. "
And in this silver-gray steel giant, Ray Mingkai was holding the joystick steadily, carefully looking at the parameters in front of him, looking at the parameters in front of him that were far beyond Zeon's level.
"Assault IWSP! Assault IWSP! This is the third patrol fleet's flagship, Tyr. Please answer if you receive! "
Assault IWSP turned around, from facing the endless void to facing the third patrol fleet's flagship.
"This is Assault IWPS. Please speak! "
Ray Mingkai exhaled slightly, retracted his hands, and moved a little.
"This is an order from the headquarters! Order Ray Mingkai and Assault IWSP to return to PLANT immediately! "
The appearance of this order surprised Lei Mingkai a little, but it was within reason.
As the only survivor of Yunus 7, Ray Mingkai's existence was a special existence for Zaft, and even for PLANT.
Now, with Ray Mingkai seizing the results of Earth's new MS, Zaft's headquarters would inevitably want to use this fact as evidence to expose the despicable and ugly face of Earth's Alliance.
And …
"May I ask what day it is today?"
Ray Mingkai's sudden question made the flagship Tyr's CIC stunned for a moment, but they quickly gave the answer.
"Assault IWSP. Today is CE71, January 25th. "
"Is it? So it's already January 25th. "
While Ray Mingkai sighed, he cast his gaze at the colonial satellite Heliopolis and in a certain direction.
January 25th.
This was a day suitable for reuniting with old friends.
Unfortunately, Ray Mingkai didn't have the chance to witness this moment.
Moreover, Ray Mingkai also faintly guessed something in his heart.
Something related to him, no, it should be said that it was related to a certain title on top of his head.
Whether these guesses were true or not, the only thing Ray Mingkai could do was to follow the orders of Zaft's headquarters and place the assault IWSP on the cargo ship. Then, under the escort of the Third Patrol Fleet, they entered Zaft's territory.
In the Supreme Council meeting room, it was unusually quiet.
Under the light that could only illuminate the round table in the center, two figures followed the round table, sat on the left and right, and looked at each other. Between them, a repressed storm was brewing.
"Why do you have to do this? It was Patrick. He is the only remaining compatriot of Yunus 7! "
The middle-aged man on the right was silent for a long time before he spoke slowly.
On the left, the middle-aged man with a cold face didn't want to explain more.
"That's a mission! A mission that only he can complete! "
"It's just a joint new MS! Our intelligence personnel are enough to complete this mission! Why do you want him to perform such a dangerous mission!! "
The stiff explanation made the middle-aged man on the right angry on the spot.
"Is it? But didn't Ray Mingkai do a good job? He had even brought back one of the new models of the MS. Calm down! Siena. I know what you're thinking, but joining the army is Ray Mingkai's own idea. We can't stop it! "
Patrick looked at his angry friend and said calmly.
"Yes! Joining the army is Ray Mingkai's idea! But he doesn't have to and has no obligation to complete such a dangerous mission!! "
"No obligation?! Siena! From the day Ray Mingkai joined Zaft, he has the obligation to complete all the missions given by Zaft! "
"You! You're using public resources for private purposes! "
Siena's words made Patrick stunned, and then his attitude eased a little.
"Sorry! Siena. I was too agitated! Perhaps, my approach is inappropriate, but Ray Mingkai's ability is obvious to all. "Now, our technical staff is ready to crack and analyze the joint new MS. This will definitely be beneficial to our final victory in the battle. Isn't it? "
Patrick's easing of the situation made it difficult for Siena to continue pestering him.
After all, they were still close friends before their ideologies were different.
They didn't want to abandon this friendship just like that.
"I hope that in the future, we won't arrange such dangerous missions for Ray Mingkai. He's the only one left of our Yunus 7 compatriot. "
Siena's sigh made Patrick's gaze dim slightly.
He knew.
He always knew.
Just that …
"Siena. Is Lux planning to go to Euneus 7 soon? "
Siena nodded slightly.
"Yes! She's preparing for the memorial service to commemorate our Yunus 7 compatriot. "
Patrick was silent for a moment, and then proposed an idea that Siena couldn't refuse.
"If that's the case, let Ray Mingkai go too! As the only compatriot of Yunus 7, I believe his presence will make the memorial service go better. "
Siena glanced at Patrick, and after confirming that Patrick was serious, she slowly nodded.
"Okay! I'm sure Lux will agree. "
Therefore, Ray Mingkai, who had just returned to PALNT and assisted the technical staff in transferring the IWSP to an independent area temporarily delimited for analysis work, was called away by a transfer order.
In this regard, Ray Mingkai not only lamented that he hadn't gotten used to the joystick of the IWSP, but he was also surprised that he was standing in front of a super luxurious villa.
Things were just as Ray Mingkai expected.
The title on top of his head was still working as it should.
According to the requirements of the transfer order, Ray Mingkai returned from the factory area to the inner city of the colonial satellite. He stood in front of a building and watched the people coming and going in and out of the building in front of him.
"Is this the place?"
Ray Mingkai recalled the contents of the transfer order and walked in.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Ray Mingkai?"
Before Ray Mingkai stepped into the building and asked, the staff waiting at the door recognized Ray Mingkai at a glance.
To be honest, the red Zaft elite uniform was so eye-catching no matter where he went.
"I'm Ray Mingkai. And you are? "
Ray Mingkai nodded.
"I'm the staff responsible for welcoming Mr. Ray Mingkai, John. Please come with me! Mr. Ray Mingkai. Ms. Lux is recording a song now. "
Following the staff named John, Ray Mingkai avoided the endless crowd and went directly to the fifth floor where the recording studio was located through a smooth VIP passage.
Unfortunately, Ray Mingkai didn't see Lux Klein, who was recording.
This was because Lux, who was surrounded by a large group of people, was waiting in front of the recording studio.
She was waiting for Ray Mingkai's arrival.
"Welcome! Our compatriot! "
Seeing Ray Mingkai's arrival, Lux first bowed slightly to Ray Mingkai, and the crowd surrounding Lux did the same.
Ray Mingkai knew that this etiquette wasn't for Ray Mingkai, but for the 250,000 souls who died tragically in the Bloody Valentine incident.
The silent atmosphere froze the scene at this moment.
It was only when Lacus raised her head again that time, which seemed to have been frozen, began to move again.
"I'm Lux Klein. Excuse me, are you Mr. Ray Mingkai? "
Ray Mingkai immediately saluted.
"Yes! I'm Ray Mingkai. Nice to meet you! Ms. Lux. "
"Me too! Nice to meet you! Mr. Ray Mingkai. "
This was his first real meeting with Lux Klein, so Ray Mingkai wasn't surprised.
Before this, he had seen Lux Klein from afar. She was more mature than the current Lux Klein, and her temperament was more outstanding. It was like she was a completely different person.
"I heard that Mr. Ray Mingkai is also a member of the Mourning and Consolation Team?"
After everyone returned to work, leaving only Lux and Ray Mingkai, Lux looked at Ray Mingkai and asked.
"Yes. But please don't address me as Mr. Lux. You can just call me by my name. "
Ray Mingkai nodded and tried to correct the way Lux addressed him.
"Is that so? Then, please call me by my name, Mr. Ray Mingkai. "
"Harrow! Ray Mingkai! Harrow! Ray Mingkai! "
At this moment, Pink Harrow, who had been inseparable from Lux, suddenly jumped out and kept shouting around Ray Mingkai.
In response, Lei Mingkai could only nod his head.
Otherwise, the sound of Pink Harrow circling around him would be terrible!
"Then, come on! Ray Mingkai, there's not much time left before the Mourning and Consolation Team departs. We have to make the final preparations. "
Looking at Lux's invitation, Ray Mingkai pondered for a moment and tried to raise an idea that was undoubtedly hypothetical to Lux.
"Lux, I think the escort force of the Mourning and Consolation Team isn't enough. If we encounter the battleships from Earth, I'm afraid there will be unnecessary conflicts. "
Hearing this, Lux couldn't help but ponder for a moment.
"The escort force of the Mourning and Consolation Team was arranged by Zaft. I believe in Zaft. "
