Passing through a quiet and empty passage,
Passing through a gray and silent street,
When Kira stood in front of a building, he found that someone was already waiting for him.
It seemed that this was the place LH033 was talking about.
Kira's eyes met with the person waiting there. After that person signaled Kira to follow, he turned around and walked into the dilapidated building.
"Excuse me, this is? Is Lux here? "
Although Kira followed behind, he still subconsciously asked when he stepped into the unknown darkness.
However, the person leading the way didn't do so, nor did he pay any attention to Kira. He just silently completed his task.
The two strolled in the darkness one after the other.
If it weren't for the increasingly bright light in front, Kira would have looked back to see how far he had walked in the darkness.
"She's here! Go in! "
Walking out of the darkness and stepping into the bright light, the person leading the way turned slightly and opened the iron door under the light.
The heavy, slow, and ear-piercing sound shook Kira's spirit. He subconsciously cast his gaze behind the iron gate where the card was punched.
"Please come in! Miss is waiting for you inside! "
"Miss?"
Kira was taken aback.
Could it be "Lux Klein"?
Under the confusion, there was a trace of eagerness to see a certain figure.
Amidst Kira's anxious footsteps, he stepped into the open door.
At that moment, a warm aura enveloped Kira.
A gentle voice sounded in his ears.
In front of his eyes was the warm furniture and the pink girl who was sitting on the sofa and slowly pouring black tea.
"Lux?"
Kira was pleasantly surprised.
He didn't expect the "Miss" mentioned by that person was really "Lux Klein".
Hearing Kira's surprised voice, LH033 put down the teapot and turned to Kira with a gentle smile.
"Kira, we meet again. Come! Why don't you try the black tea I made? "
Before Kira could react, a fragrant wind blew in his face. A gentle touch wrapped around Kira's right hand. Then, he instinctively followed the owner of the gentle touch.
An intoxicating voice.
It was a figure that made people unable to help but feel gentle.
Every time he appeared in front of Kira, Kira couldn't help but want more tenderness.
"Come! Sit down first! "
LH033 noticed Kira's change, but he didn't say anything.
"Lux, how did you get here?"
The aroma of the black tea did not intoxicate Kira. His attention was still on why the girl in front of him had appeared on this abandoned colonial satellite.
"It's just a small inspection."
LH033's movements paused for a moment, but Kira didn't notice.
"Check?"
Kira was a little confused, but due to his trust in the pink girl in front of him, he didn't ask any more questions.
This allowed LH033 to breathe a sigh of relief.
If Kira continued to insist on why she left PLANT and appeared on this abandoned colonial satellite, she would not be able to convince Kira.
Could it be that LH033 would confess that he was a Photocopier who originated from Lacus Klein?
"Yes. It was just an inspection. Although this colonial satellite is abandoned, the facilities here are very advanced. At the same time, there are not many idle people here. "
LH033 casually responded to Kira's doubts, then picked up the teacup and took a sip, then brought the topic back to Kira.
"Kira. Is there a problem on your side? "
Hearing this, Kira nodded.
Although he met up with the Archangel, the Archangel and even his friends didn't agree with his philosophy. They only agreed with the actions of Ray Mingkai, who piloted the Free Gao Da and rescued everyone on the Archangel.
This frustrated Kira greatly.
He quietly listened to Kira's story.
Listening to his complaints.
The encouraging smile on LH033's face also made Kira's frustrated heart gradually recover.
"Really? I didn't expect him, Ray Mingkai, to be one step ahead! But this is not a big problem. Although the Archangel doesn't agree with your philosophy, please don't be discouraged. In this world, there are still other people who agree with your philosophy. "
"Others?"
"Yes? Others. For example, Maltese. A very important person. She has always wanted to meet you. Now, maybe it's a good opportunity! "
Kira frowned slightly when LH033 mentioned her, Maltese.
Listening to LH033's description, this she seemed to be a very powerful woman.
Could it be that the facilities here were owned by this woman named Maltese?
If it was true, Kira seemed to understand why LH033 would come to this colonial satellite Mendel after failing to recruit the Archangel.
"Maltese, she …"
All of a sudden, an ear-piercing alarm sounded.
Before LH033 and Kira could react, a strong tremor followed the siren and wantonly struck the building.
"Rumble!!"
Under the strong vibration, the soft light dimmed and brightened.
The black tea in the cup scattered on the table and dripped along the table to the ground, staining LH033's white skirt with red spots.
"Be careful!"
The moment the teacup rolled off the table and smashed, Kira flew up and pulled LH033, who was careless and lost her balance due to the vibration.
"Thank you! Kira! "
Kira's steady and powerful body made LH033 feel at ease, but now was not the time to be tender.
"Let's go! Let's go see what happened! "
LH033 gently pushed Kira away and took the lead to walk to the door.
Kira couldn't help but feel a sense of loss, but he still followed behind LH033.
Outside the passage, the strange sound mixed with the alarm and the strong vibration became more intense and harsh.
Silhouettes continued to pass through the depths of the passageway, as if they were responding to some situation.
LH033's eyes flashed with a dignified look. She seemed to have understood what was going on.
"Kira. Come with me! "
In the current urgency, she must first find Maltese before deciding what to do next.
At the same time.
Outside the building, a group of well-trained mercenaries followed the plan and launched a fierce bombardment on the building occupied by the "Clan".
All kinds of cannons had long been retired by the Earth Alliance. There were even some tanks in active service that were pulled here by these mercenaries. They surrounded the building so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out, constantly emitting roars of bombardment.
"What a big lineup! Aren't you afraid of scaring people away? "
Jemengard crossed her arms and said with interest.
"No. I know Maltese. As long as I appear here, she will never escape! "
Beside Jemengard was Matthias, who had met Ray Mingkai before.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Miss Jemengard and His Excellency Ray Mingkai for their help. If it weren't for your activity, I'm afraid Maltese wouldn't have chosen this place as the new base of the" Clan "."
"No. I didn't do anything. On the contrary, my actions so far have only been to protect myself. "
Matthias's gratitude was not accepted by Ray Mingkai.
His contact with the "Clan" and the librarian had basically stopped after discovering Klia.
Therefore, Matthias' thanks were more like pleasantries in essence.
"No. It's precisely because of this that I want to express my gratitude to His Excellency Ray Mingkai! Perhaps you don't know, but the person standing behind Maltese is the enemy you are facing now. "
"MISS E?"
The enemy Matthias mentioned was not someone else, but MISS E, who had been hiding behind PLANT and Zaft.
"Yes. It's precisely because of MISS E's participation that the Clan and Maltese have the technology to perfectly replicate humans. I wonder if you and Miss Jemengard can understand the meaning of the word 'perfect replication'. "
"Perfect replication?"
Upon hearing this word, Jemengard's eyes were filled with solemnity.
Obviously, this woman, who used the name of the giant snake in Norse mythology as her code name, already understood the meaning of this word.
"Are there no genetic defects? If that's the case, I already understand. "
The most direct example of the quality of cloning technology in the CE century was Lao Lu Kreutzer.
If there was no technical problem of genetic defects, then the clones produced by the Clan would probably replace the leaders of various countries in a short period of time.
Thinking of this, Lei Mingkai suddenly understood why Matthias would launch an attack with such fanfare, even at the expense of exposing his whereabouts.
It was to prevent Maltese, who had already mastered this new technology, from escaping.
Otherwise, Maltese, who had ruthlessly abandoned this new base, could still rely on this new technology to make a comeback.
In addition, MISS E, who was hiding behind the scenes, was probably not going to let this go!
"Then, Matthias, act according to your plan!"
"Thank you very much for your understanding!"
Matthias thanked him again, then raised his hand and waved. The mercenaries he had recruited slowed down the bombardment on the spot and rushed into the building according to the attack plan along the attack route that they had deliberately left behind.
"Da Da Da!"
In an instant, the tunnel that was attacked by the mercenaries was filled with intense gunshots and sounds of fighting.
Inside the building, the core area of the Clan's base.
"Clan Leader Maltese. What's going on? "
LH033, who had brought Kira all the way to the core area where Maltese was, quickly asked when he saw Maltese.
"It's an attack. Someone is attacking our facility. "
Maltese glanced at LH033 and Kira, then calmly replied and continued.
"Now, Miss and this young man, please go ahead first! The battle here will continue for a while. For your safety, please hide for a while. "
Then, Maltese ignored LH033 and Kira and ordered people to take them away.
Maltese knew that LH033 would definitely persuade her to leave, but this was not the same as before.
This was because on the screen in front of Maltese, there was a man standing openly in front of the only surviving camera outside the building.
He was her brother, Matthias, who had been missing for several years after she took away the position of clan leader.
There was no doubt that this was a battle for revenge!
Although Maltese did not know how Matthias found this place, it was inevitable.
As long as one of the siblings, Matthias and Maltese, didn't die in the battle for the patriarch's position back then, the battle would continue.
"Pass down the order. After sending LH033 and Kira Yamato out, fight with all your strength! "
"Yes!"
Before leaving the room, Maltese coldly looked at Matthias on the screen.
"Come! Brother. In the end, a clan is not something you can control! "
Compared to the previous bombardment, the battle inside the facility was more intense and tragic.
In the narrow space, guns, grenades, and even the swinging of blades during close combat had become the main characters of this battle.
The mercenaries, who crawled and rolled in the pile of corpses, relied on their own ability and experience to continuously push forward, approaching the core area of the Clan.
However, just as they were about to reach the core area, a group of figures covered from head to toe in black helmets and tight suits stopped the mercenaries.
In an instant, not only were the mercenaries, who were about to win, frustrated, but they were also caught off guard and pushed back by the group of strange men in black.
Immediately, the mercenaries suffered heavy losses.
"Sir! Our attack has been thwarted! It seems that we have encountered the Imprint troops. "
Of course.
As the former clan leader of the Clan, Matthias naturally knew of the existence of the Imprint.
Therefore, when he started the battle for revenge, he prepared some gifts for the Imprint troops.
"Proceed according to the plan!"
After giving the order, Matthias looked at Ray Mingkai.
"Sir. Please begin the operation! That woman, Maltese will not keep that person by her side. It is very likely that she will let that person evacuate early. "
Ray Mingkai knew very well who Matthias was referring to.
"I'll leave this place to you! I hope that after the end of the battle, some of the facilities can be preserved. "
Matthias chuckled softly and said with understanding,
"Of course. A Knight always needs some evidence to prove justice, don't you think so? "
Kira and LH033, who quickly evacuated along the emergency passage, were getting further and further away from the sounds of fighting.
Under the lead of Maltese's men, LH033 and Kira quickly returned to the spaceport where Holy Accord Gao Da was.
Fortunately, there was no battle here, nor were there any enemies.
"This is as far as I can go! Miss, and Sir, please evacuate immediately! Our Clan Leader will take care of the rest! "
After Kira and LH033 nodded, they entered Holy Accord Gao Da's cockpit together and prepared to evacuate.
However, when Holy Accord Gao Da was activated, a communication from the Archangel came.
"Kira! Kira! Where are you? I heard that there was a battle in the colonial satellite, right? "
It was Miriaria's anxious voice.
After all, they were good friends.
Even if they did not accept Kira's philosophy, the bond between friends still existed.
Kira and LH033 looked at each other and picked up the communication.
"No, I'm fine. Now, I'm preparing to return to Archangel. "
"Is that so? That's great. "
Before Miriaria finished speaking, the image suddenly shook a few times.
As the image shook, a black-haired girl appeared in front of Kira.
"Kira Yamato, is there a guest in Holy Accord Gao Da's cockpit?"
The black-haired girl was Lux Klein, who had returned to Archangel first and was waiting for Ray Mingkai's signal.
"O … Audrey, is … is there such a …"
Kira, who subconsciously agreed, suddenly remembered that LH033's identity was "Lux Klein" from PLANT.
Even though Kira didn't fully admit it, Lacus chuckled as though she was a young girl who wanted to make new friends.
"Is that so? I wonder if Kira can introduce this new friend to me? "
As she spoke, Lux suddenly came to a realization.
"Right! Before making new friends, what I should do is introduce myself, right? "
Then, under Kira's shocked gaze, the black-haired girl on the screen put her hands together and softly chanted.
"In the name of Visser."
A colorful stream of light appeared out of thin air and dissipated.
Amidst the dissipating multicolored light, soft pink hair and a delicate face appeared.
She chuckled.
"Nice to meet you! I'm Lux Klein! Nice to meet you! Someone who has the same appearance and voice as me. "
