The noisy crowd, the panicked faces, the eyes that had lost hope, and the children who had been separated from their parents in the midst of the chaotic crowd were all that Lacus saw at that moment.
"Go! Just do as you wish! "
Ray Mingkai said softly.
Lacus turned around and exchanged glances with Lei Mingkai. With Lei Mingkai's silent approval, she quickly walked up and carried the child who was standing in the middle of the chaotic crowd. She softly comforted the child's emotions.
"What a tragedy!"
Ray Mingkai moved his gaze and looked at the chaotic scene.
"It's Zaft. According to the townspeople, it was Zaft's Baku who destroyed our town. Even the food and weapons we stored in the cave at the foot of the mountain were destroyed. "
It was Seb.
Unknowingly, the leader of the Dawn Desert had come to Lei Mingkai's side and watched the chaotic situation with him.
"Aren't you going to command?"
Ray Mingkai looked to the side and asked tentatively.
Seb shook his head.
"It's not the first time! Everyone is used to it. You should know how to deal with these things. "
Then, Seb didn't seem to want to continue the topic. Instead, he changed the topic to Ray Mingkai.
"I heard you and your sister are going to Scandinavia? That's a very far place. "
What surprised Ray Mingkai was that Seb knew the location of Scandinavia very well.
"Mhmm, yes. We were going to take a passenger plane. For a passenger plane that can soar in the sky, the distance is nothing. But we encountered a battle on the way. It was an aerial battle between the Earth Union and Zaft. "
Ray Mingkai half-truthfully explained what Lacus said to Seb and Carrie while adding some details.
Seb listened quietly without interrupting Ray Mingkai. When Ray Mingkai finished, he slowly nodded.
"Is it the Earth Union and Zaft? I didn't expect the passenger plane flying over the sea to be affected by the battle. This world might have been taken over by their battle. "
Ray Mingkai didn't respond to Seb's exclamation. He only nodded silently in response.
"Right. What are you going to do next? Or continue to Scandinavia? "
"What else? We siblings came here from the distant universe. Do you want us to give up in front of our hometown? "
Lei Mingkai sighed and raised his head to look towards the north.
"I understand how you feel. But now, the path that can take you and your sister to your hometown has been taken by Zaft and the Union. Right now, they are fighting around the sky, the sea, and even this worthless desert under our feet. It's simply too difficult to rely on just the two of you. "
Seb's words made Ray Mingkai shook his head.
"No. No matter how difficult it is, we have to try. Isn't it the same for you? "
Lei Mingkai's gaze passed through the chaotic crowd and landed on the off-road armored vehicle that never stopped its engine and let out a low roar.
It was not a vehicle that ordinary people could own.
"Is that so? I have something to do. If you have time, I hope to have a good talk with you. "
Ray Mingkai's statement undoubtedly told Seb that he knew where they were.
Seb left.
After knowing that Ray Mingkai had discovered their identity, Seb knew that his persuasion would not have any effect.
"Why don't you agree? If you agree, you can get close to the thing hidden in the depths of this camp. "
White Cat State Zero's puzzled voice was heard.
"No. If you agree, you'll be tying yourself here. Right now, we don't have the Archangel that can allow us to freely travel through this desert. "
If it was just Lei Mingkai alone, he wouldn't have cared.
But Lux was still here.
If she stayed here for a long time, even if Lux's disguise was perfect, there would be a fatal flaw.
After the Silver Wind incident, her iconic long pink hair and face must have become the symbol of PLANT in the Earth-Moon circle. At the same time, it was also the symbol of Zaft's suspension of large-scale military operations.
"Troublesome."
Although White Cat State Zero knew about these relationships, it was still very unhappy.
"Let's wait a little longer!"
The commotion of taking in the refugees passed quickly.
But as the work of taking in refugees ended, the atmosphere in the camp became extremely oppressive and angry.
"Let's go! Let's go teach those damned regulators a lesson! "
"Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
Seeing the miserable state of their loved ones and knowing that their hometown was destroyed by Zaft, the members of the Dawn Desert shouted angry slogans. They took their equipment and jumped into the armored off-road vehicle and rushed out of the valley.
In front of this angry team, Seb's figure became the flag leading this revenge team.
Beside him, the golden-haired girl, Carrie, was also there. She had also become a member of this revenge team.
"This is really reckless. Carrie. "
Ray Mingkai watched the revenge team leave. When he returned to the camp, he saw that the children who were running back and forth in the cave were holding wooden firearms and running out of the camp in a large group. They were shouting the angry slogans of the adults.
Ray Mingkai could not help but frown. He reached out and pulled the children who ran past him.
"Where are you going? It's dangerous outside! "
"No! We're going to fight Zaft! "
"Yes! Yes! Fight Zaft! "
"Uncle Seb said that as long as the big guy behind us can move, we will take back our town!"
In an instant, Lei Mingkai, who was holding them back, became the "target" of the children. The children chattered noisily one after another.
Although the children's words were without rhyme or reason, Ray Mingkai heard a very important message.
Big guy.
A big guy who was hidden deep in the camp.
It was the big guy that Seb and the others dragged back from the desert not long ago.
Other than that, he could not get any more detailed information from the children.
But Ray Mingkai already had a certain guess.
Big guy, desert, resistance organization. If these factors were combined, it was not difficult to guess that the big guy that the children were talking about was probably the land type MS that Zaft used here – Baku.
"State Zero. I know the real identity of the big guy deep in the camp. "
"What?"
Ray Mingkai did not care about the White Cat State Zero's surprise. Instead, he lowered his head and tried to find a breakthrough from the children, trying to get them to bring him to the depths of the camp.
However, Lei Mingkai was surprised by the result.
Because there was no one guarding the depths of the camp.
To the Dawn Desert, the things piled up in the depths of the camp were just war wreckage that was dragged back from the battlefield. Other than being able to sell it to the trash merchants for money and finding supplies that might be useful, there was no other use for it.
After a few words, Ray Mingkai turned his head and brought him to the depths of the camp. Amidst the noise of the children, Ray Mingkai saw the war wreckage that was piled up into a mountain.
It was about 6 meters high, but it was difficult for Ray Mingkai to see the end of the war wreckage from his current position. Ray Mingkai saw the distorted appearance of the standard firearms used by the Earth Alliance. He also saw the Zaft's standard firearms that had melted by a third. He also saw the missile launcher that was covered with bullet holes but did not explode. Behind the missile launcher that covered most of his vision, he saw the head that looked like a dog's head holding the beam sword hilt in its mouth.
"Baku."
As soon as he saw that familiar head, Lei Mingkai immediately blurted out its name.
"Yes! Yes! That is … Baku! Uncle Seb also said the same thing! Unfortunately, none of us can fix it! Otherwise, we can get rid of Zaft! "
Upon hearing the name of Baku, the children began to squabble again.
Ray Mingkai was already rejoicing in his heart.
If this Baku could be activated, leaving this desert was just a small matter.
"State Zero. Do you see it? "
"I see it. You don't have to tell me, I know what to do. But, you have to get rid of this group of little ones! "
White Cat State Zero was the same as Ray Mingkai. The moment he saw Baku, he already had an idea.
Ray Mingkai nodded slightly. After sending the children away in the name of helping him find Lux, he stepped into the war wreckage alone.
His footsteps crossed the twisted guns, the devastated missile launchers, and the cannons with half of the barrel cut off. He stood in front of Baku's head and quietly looked at the ultimate weapon buried in the war wreckage.
White Cat State Zero's figure quietly appeared from the ruins and squatted on the left side of Ray Mingkai. The barrel extended from the ruins and looked at the buried Baku.
"This body looks a bit like us."
"This is Baku. It is the MS developed by Zaft for land warfare. In this area, this type of MS has become the nightmare of the Earth Union and the native residents. "
Ray Mingkai reached out and pushed aside a steel plate with a bullet hole next to Baku's head. He looked at Baku's single eye that had lost its brilliance and nodded slightly.
"State Zero. It's up to you. "
"Okay!"
The White Cat did not hesitate and directly used Functional Fusion and plunged into Baku's body.
Not long after, a slight buzzing sound rang out, and the voice of State Zero also came out from Baku's body.
"Kai. Get out of the way! I want this big guy to get out of here. "
"Okay!"
Ray Mingkai turned and quickly ran out of the war wreckage. He even pulled a long distance away from the ruins to avoid the aftermath of Baku's reactivation.
"Buzz!"
When Baku's single eye lit up again, a roar swept through the war wreckage.
"Kacha … Kacha …"
The huge beast-type MS struggled to get up from the rubble. The twisted gun, the broken missile launcher, and the broken gun barrel were all submerged by the thick sand and dust as the beast-type MS woke up again.
Heavy noises and rumbling roars came from the depths of the camp. The members of the Dawn Desert who stayed behind to guard the camp all picked up their weapons and rushed over. However, they were surprised to see the electronic eye that was still incomparably bright even in the thick sand and dust.
"That … that's Baku?! How is that possible!! "
While shocked, these members subconsciously raised the weapons in their hands and pointed at the "enemy" hidden behind the sand.
"Stop! It's not the enemy. I did it. I made it come back to life. "
At this moment, Ray Mingkai spoke in time and stopped the Dawn Desert members.
"You?!"
"Kai! What happened? "
Before the members could ask Ray Mingkai for details, Lux, who finally arrived, asked everyone's thoughts.
"It's Baku. I made that big guy come back to life. "
"Boom!"
In the sand, there was a heavy trampling sound.
As the huge figure passed through the sand and was completely exposed to everyone, the Dawn Desert members finally put down the weapons in their hands.
Because, among these members, there was no lack of people who participated in the siege of this Baku.
On this Baku, they could naturally find the scars they left behind.
"You … how did you fix it? This Baku's power unit was clearly destroyed!! "
The members of Baku looked at Ray Mingkai in surprise.
"This is my personal secret. Sorry! "
Ray Mingkai smiled lightly, no longer paying attention to the members of Dawn Desert who wanted to know the answer, and extended his right hand to Lux.
"Audrey, let's return the favor."
Lux retracted her gaze from Baku and stared at Ray Mingkai with surprise in her eyes.
"Alright!"
The desert late at night was silent and cold.
In this exceptionally quiet desert that was far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, there was an unusual noise.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Streaks of fire rushed out from the back of the sand dune and flew towards the huge beast-type MS that was traversing the sand dune. However, due to the flexible maneuverability of the beast-type MS, it was futile as it crashed into the sand dune on the other side of the sand dune, causing sand and dust to fill the air.
"Martin! Be careful on your right! There are two little mice there. You've been bitten by them! "
The voice of the man known as the "Desert Tiger" sounded in the communication channel.
"Understood!"
As the adjutant of the "Desert Tiger", Martin would not allow himself to be unfortunately shot down by the Dawn Desert under the personal leadership of the "Desert Tiger".
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "
Missiles were constantly launched from the back of the Baku driven by Martin. Under the radar's lock, they rushed down like a meteor shower toward the sand dune on the right, and in an instant, the sand dune exploded into sand and dust all over the sky.
"Did it succeed?"
"Martin! Dodge! Enemy! There's a new enemy! "
When the voice of the "Desert Tiger" sounded again, it was actually anxious.
Under the moonlight, a black shadow flew up from the sand dune, like an eagle hunting a rabbit, and pounced on the Baku that Martin was driving.
"Boom!"
The huge impact sent Martin and Baku, who were unable to react in time, flying, and fiercely smashing a sand dune in the distance into a large pit.
The cold night wind blew past, and amidst the sand and dust that was gradually splashed by the night wind, a scarred but extremely familiar figure stood between Zaft and the Dawn Desert.
"That … is Baku?!"
