The dust gradually subsided.
When the steel body under the moonlight reappeared in the infrared telescope, the "Desert Tiger" was shocked.
The steel body was full of scars.
The broken armor.
The exposed joints.
Even the torso that should have been protected by the armor was full of holes.
Especially the part of the power unit …
"Specter … huh?"
Under the weak moonlight, the hole where the power unit was located was particularly deep, as if there was nothing under that deep hole.
"Martin! Change of target! Triangle formation, deal with that Baku! "
Butterfield put down the telescope in his hand, and his gaze became slightly dignified.
"Yes!"
Under Butterfield's command, the three Bakus abandoned their target on the spot, formed a triangle formation, and rushed toward the Baku that suddenly appeared in this battlefield.
"That … that's internal strife?!"
Seb, who had escaped a calamity, raised his hand to wipe off the dust on his face, and looked at the Baku that would fall apart if it were hit hard.
He didn't know where this Baku came from, why it intervened in this battle, and even blocked an attack for them.
At this time, another off-road vehicle drove out from the back of the sand dune.
Carrie, who was sitting on it, raised her hand and pointed at the broken Baku, and shouted at Seb.
"Seb! That … that seems to be the Baku in our camp!! "
"How … how is that possible! That Baku is already scrapped. Even the trash merchants can't bring up the thought of recycling it. "
Seb subconsciously refuted Carrie's words, but in the next second, he picked up the telescope at lightning speed, aimed at the broken Baku, and quickly adjusted the distance.
As a result …
At the left foot of the broken Baku, one could see that it was a child's graffiti at a glance.
It was the graffiti that the children had drawn on the Baku when it was dragged back to the camp, against Zaft's invasion of their home.
"How is that possible? That Baku's power unit has already been destroyed! "
No matter how unbelievable Seb was, the appearance of the Baku that should have been lying in the depths of the camp waiting for its fate of being dismantled was real.
"Seb! Let's retreat! This is no longer a battlefield that we can participate in! "
Zizaka, who was driving the off-road vehicle for Carrie, waved at Seb and shouted.
Seb gritted his teeth and got rid of the unrealistic thoughts in his mind. He raised his right hand high and swung it down.
"Go! Let's retreat! "
As the sand and dust rose, the four remaining off-road vehicles in the Dawn Desert after this battle quickly disappeared into the tall sand dunes.
Behind them was the moment when the three Bakus, who were attacking in a triangular formation, fought with the broken Baku.
The dust brought up by Baku's high-speed tracks was like a small sandstorm.
Everywhere it passed, it was covered by rolling sand and dust.
Especially when the three Bakus joined forces to launch a high-speed assault, the rolling sand and dust seemed to cover the sky and cover the earth as it pressed towards the opponent.
As the blazing wind swept through, the two Bakus on the left and right had already flown past the broken Baku, using the strong wind caused by its high-speed advance to suppress the movement of the broken Baku. Then, it was the killing move of the triangular formation.
The Baku in the middle leaped high and crashed into the broken Baku like a meteor.
Not to mention Seb, even the Baku pilot, Zaft, thought that the Baku in front of him would be smashed into pieces if the Baku were to be hit by it.
However …
Just as the Baku was about to hit, the broken Baku's figure suddenly flashed and disappeared from the Baku's sight!
Then, a series of violent collisions and roars followed.
"Boom!"
The wings used by Baku were thrown high into the air, and their bodies rolled wantonly. After drawing an arc in the night sky, they were deeply embedded in the sand dunes.
At the same time, Baku, whose wings were broken, rolled in the rolling sand and dust under the fierce impact and lost all movement.
"Sasa!"
Martin was shocked when he saw that the Baku driven by his teammate was knocked down by the broken Baku in an instant.
Without thinking too much, Martin immediately took his remaining teammates and formed two formations. One in front and one behind, they launched a new round of attacks towards the broken Baku.
Just now, the broken Baku first squatted down at the moment of the collision, then twisted its body and raised its claws to fiercely break Baku's wings. At the same time, it also counterattacked and sent Baku flying. Martin saw it all.
That kind of nimble movement was simply impossible to do with the tattered body of the broken Baku.
No!
Even the brand-new Baku couldn't do that kind of action.
If …
If it was the captain …
"No! I can't do that kind of action! I'm just a human! Even if it's an Adjuster, it can't escape the human framework. "
As if he knew the thoughts of his adjutant, Butterfield sighed in the communication channel.
Then, the man who was known as the "Desert Tiger" gave an order that surprised his subordinates.
"Martin! Stop fighting! Let's retreat! Now is not the time to fight with beasts! "
Butterfield withdrew his gaze from the broken Baku and shook his head slightly.
"There's actually a ferocious beast in this desolate desert? It's better to die than to live! This world. "
The huge steel beasts quietly confronted each other, neither attacking nor retreating. It was only when Baku, who had been sent flying by the broken Baku, stood up again that Baku, led by the "Desert Tiger", slowly retreated, turned around, and quickly disappeared behind the dune.
"Don't chase?"
In the cockpit of the broken Baku, Lacus looked at the Baku in the distance and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, she still couldn't be as decisive as Ray Mingkai.
"No! This Baku is just barely operating now! That attack just now was probably the limit. If we continue, I'm afraid we'll have to pay a price to win. "
Ray Mingkai shook his head, but in his mind, he saw the man with the help of the White Cat State Zero. The man known as the "Desert Tiger" had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through things.
"Then now?"
Lacus looked at the sand that gradually disappeared into the sky and asked softly.
"Let's go back! If we don't go back, I'm afraid this Baku won't be able to hold on. "
Ray Mingkai didn't confess the existence of the White Cat State Zero to Lacus.
Until now, Lacus thought that Ray Mingkai used some kind of mysterious emergency technology to activate the Baku.
No matter what, to be able to avoid a fierce battle was a kind of luck for the resurrected Baku.
After all, the White Cat State Zero's emergency measures couldn't completely "resurrect" it in just a few hours.
"After we go back, I need some time to repair this broken body! If I have the parts, I should be able to speed up the repair. If I can restore the power of the long-fanged lion form now, it won't be so troublesome! That damned MDE!! Don't let me know who released it! Otherwise, I'll teach him a lesson!! "
In order to survive the MDE explosion, the White Cat State Zero was forced to use up all its strength and still couldn't recover. The memory was still fresh in its mind, and it constantly talked about it.
The moon set and the sun rose.
As the cold temperature gradually left the desert, Seb, who was standing on a hillside near the camp, finally saw the rolling sand in the sky.
"It's him! It's that Baku! They're back! "
Carrie, who had been keeping watch with him all night, raised her binoculars and observed carefully. She immediately shouted loudly.
Seb put down the binoculars in his hand and turned to look at the man standing behind Carrie, Zisaka. Everything was understood without words.
When they returned to the camp, the members who stayed behind immediately flocked to tell Seb about Ray Mingkai activating the broken Baku.
This allowed Seb, Carrie, and the others to confirm the identity of the broken Baku.
However, when Seb and Carrie asked the whole camp, they didn't know. At most, they found out from the mouths of the group of children that it was the children who brought Ray Mingkai to the back of the camp to activate the Baku.
"Zisaka. What do you think? "
To put it nicely, Dawn Desert was an armed organization that fought against Zaft's invasion.
To put it bluntly, it was a group of unintelligent scattered soldiers who were only equipped with anti-armor missiles, rocket launchers, and semi-automatic rifles.
Now …
"Ask that man what he thinks! If … let Ashar take care of the expenses! "
Zisaka's attitude undoubtedly meant that he agreed with Seb's idea.
"En. I got it! I'll ask Sir Ray Mingkai. "
During the conversation, the high-speed Baku had already returned to the entrance of the camp. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, it slowly drove back into the depths of the camp and into the ruins of the war.
What welcomed Ray Mingkai and Lacus was a group of children.
Among these children, a little girl attracted Lacus's attention.
"Sister Audrey. This is for you! Thank you for bringing all my brothers back! "
The little girl's pure smile and the flowers in her dirty little hands made Lacus stare blankly. She immediately squatted in front of the little girl and gently took the flowers, then hugged the little girl in her arms.
"Thank you!"
The situation at Lacus's side made Ray Mingkai slightly surprised, but before he could think about it, the crowd that welcomed them back parted to let Seb, Carrie, and Zisaka face Ray Mingkai.
"Ray Mingkai. How did you make this Baku move again? That was clearly … "
Carrie, who could not hide her thoughts, immediately opened her mouth and asked.
"That's my personal secret. I'm very sorry! I can't tell you. "
After apologizing, Ray Mingkai looked at Seb.
"Mr. Seb. Right now, us siblings have found a way to leave this desert and head to Scandinavia. But I still need some help. Of course, if Mr. Seb is able to help, I can promise you one thing. "
Ray Mingkai's preemptive show of strength stunned Seb, and he almost did not react in time.
Originally, when Seb found out that the person who made the broken Baku move again was Ray Mingkai, he could not help but think of making Ray Mingkai stay. That was why Seb and Zisaka had a brainless conversation just now.
Seb wanted to make use of the financial resources of the Obasha family, who stood behind Carrie and Zisaka, to completely repair Baku.
But he did not expect Ray Mingkai to be one step ahead of him.
"This …"
To be honest, Seb hesitated.
The fact that the broken Baku could move again was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Dawn Desert.
"If you just want to chase that tiger Zaft out, I might be able to help."
While Seb was hesitating, the bait that Ray Mingkai threw out once again was so … tempting.
At the end of the day, Seb wanted Ray Mingkai to stay because of Baku and the person who could pilot it.
Dawn Desert may have been attacking everywhere in the desert all day long, but in reality, they only used anti-armor missiles and the like at most.
If they wanted to rise to the level of MS, they would be caught unprepared.
Instinctively, Seb looked at Carrie and then at Zizaka.
After knowing that Ray Mingkai was willing to help Dawn Desert expel Zaft's army, Carrie's impression of Ray Mingkai had improved.
As for Zisaka, after seeing Carrie's expression, he slowly nodded.
"Alright! Then, welcome! Sir Kai Brittany. "
Looking at Seb's right hand, Ray Mingkai smiled.
"Just call me Kai. Also, I want to quickly repair this body. Does Mr. Seb have any good ideas? "
After saying that, Ray Mingkai sighed.
"It's my fault for being reckless! When this body was just able to move, I drove it out to fight the tiger. Now, although the tiger has retreated, it will inevitably launch an even fiercer attack. "
"Because of this Baku?!"
Carrie's words made Ray Mingkai slightly surprised.
She had actually thought of this?
"Yes! No matter who it is, as long as they see an MS that should belong to them appear in the enemy's formation, they will inevitably have the idea of destroying it. "
"Then, we have to speed up!"
Ray Mingkai's words made Seb's expression turn serious.
He looked at his subordinates and softly asked:
"Those trashy merchants should be here soon, right?"
"Yes! According to the previous agreement, the trashy merchants should be here in the afternoon. "
Although Seb and his subordinates spoke softly, Ray Mingkai caught the key word – trashy merchants.
"Trashy merchants?!"
Ray Mingkai slightly frowned, but there was a trace of anticipation in his heart.
If it was those trashy merchants, repairing the Baku would no longer be a problem.
After all, in this desert, apart from the Desert Tiger and Bartfeld's Zaft Army, there were only people who could have Baku's standard parts. Only the scrap merchants who recovered all kinds of parts and body wreckage from the battlefield.
However, he did not know who the trash merchant would be.
