Two days.
There were still two days before the inspector from Lars Horn's headquarters, Special Agent Major McGillis, arrived.
At this critical moment, Connor Conrad didn't expect that the mission that was supposed to be in the bag would fail after sending out a mobile engineer brigade and three Greiz's armored troops.
Looking at the unsmiling face on the screen that provoked his hatred, Connor Conrad was furious.
In anger, Connor, the head of Lars Horn's Mars branch no longer cared about his image. He stood up and pointed at the disgusting face on the screen and scolded.
"Listen carefully! Cronk. I don't care what method you use, you must solve this problem before the inspector comes here. Even the traces of battle must be cleaned up! Use your brain and your ears to remember clearly. Listen carefully! Whether it's people or objects, clean them up!!! Otherwise, you'll be finished! "
Connor's fierce words came out from the loudspeaker, scaring the surrounding Lars Horn soldiers.
But even in the face of threats, Cronk remained silent. He didn't refute or respond to his superior's orders.
He just silently waited for Connor's scolding to end before he reached out and turned off the communication.
"Lieutenant Cronk."
As the communication was turned off, the surrounding situation also became quiet.
At this time, no one was willing to touch Cronk's head.
Because they all knew that as long as Cronk couldn't complete Connor's mission, then everyone here would be doomed.
However, in this situation, the rookie pilot Ain, whose upper body was almost wrapped in bandages and his left arm was hanging, walked out of the aisle step by step with the help of a walking stick. He looked at Crank who was standing silently in front of the communication device.
"Ain. Why did you leave the infirmary? The most important task for you now is to focus on healing. "
Cronk saw Ain's pale face and his upper body that was almost wrapped like a dumpling and couldn't help but scold him.
"No. I can't lie on the hospital bed calmly now. Our mission, and the hatred of the killed Officer Orlis … "
"Enough! Stop talking! Ain! "
Before Ain finished his words, he was interrupted by Cronk.
"Ain! Listen! You shouldn't pay attention to this matter now. I'll take care of it! The only thing you need to do is rest well! "
"How can that be? Those people, those mobile engineers know how to deal with our Greiz's opponents! Even if you, Lieutenant Cronk, attack again … "
Once again, Ain's words were interrupted by Cronk.
"That's because we underestimated our opponents! Ain. Lars Horn has been without an opponent in this world for too long. It's been so long that we, the pilots who drive the Greiz, think that the mobile engineers are no different from moving coffins. They're just moving targets to be shot at! "
Cronk's sigh, Ain was speechless.
Even Ain, who was a newcomer, thought so.
This might be the change in perspective brought about by the MS's natural sense of overlooking the mobile engineers.
Maybe it was because of this that they suffered a crushing defeat this time?
Ain moved his lips, but he couldn't say such words.
He knew that even if he said it, he wouldn't be able to stop Cronk's next move.
"Ain. Go back and recuperate! Let me handle the rest of the matter alone! "
Cronk's back was facing Ain. After carefully arranging the equipment for another attack, he turned around and walked to Ain.
"There are young soldiers in the CGS base. Although we don't know if they are among those mobile engineers, we who participated in that battle may have become the murderers of those young soldiers. So, Ain, please! "
"Lieutenant Cronk!"
Ain was about to open his mouth and dissuade Cronk again, but Cronk stuffed a stiff object into his hand.
From the touch, it seemed to be jewelry?
"Lieutenant Cronk!! Wait! "
"Enough! Ain. With your current body, you'll just be a burden if you follow us! "
— — —
"Wah!!"
"Wah!!"
Soft exclamations of surprise continued to ring out. Two petite figures struggled to push away the youths who had surrounded them. It was not easy for them to squeeze to the front.
Then, they looked at the white figure lying on the side of the door and waved their fingers.
"That … what is that? A cat? "
"No, a tiger?"
Biscat's twin sisters, Cookie Griffin and Claka Griffin, kept looking back at the teenagers around them, as if they wanted to know the true identity of the white figure lying lazily on the side of the door from their mouths.
In the end, the answers given by the teenagers far exceeded the twins' guesses, and it was getting more and more outrageous.
In addition to being outrageous, they even called it monster to scare the children.
"No, that's not right! Its name is Snacks, White Lion Zero. "
As the melodious voice rang out, the group of youths inadvertently opened up a path, allowing the owner of the melodious voice to appear behind the twins.
"White … Lion?"
Looking at the doubtful twins, Lacus could not help but sigh inwardly.
"Yes. White Lion. In other words, a white lion. "
"What is that?"
Claka, who had a strong personality and was also an extrovert, pulled the corner of Lacus's shirt without any fear.
"En. It is a ferocious beast that lives on the grasslands of Earth. "
"Ferocious beast?"
Lacus's explanation seemed to have made the twins understand a little, and at the same time, it made them shrink slightly towards Lacus.
"It … it won't eat people, right?"
The soft voice was mixed with a trace of fear.
"No! It won't! State Zero won't hurt you. Don't you think so? "
Once they saw Lacus looking at them with a smile, the teenagers suddenly became restless and patted their chests to guarantee that the white beast lying on the side of the door wouldn't hurt them.
Even some of the teenagers who were slightly injured joined in patting their chests to guarantee.
For a moment, the whole scene became noisy.
"Tsk! These guys are really making a big fuss! If we annoy that beast, we'll be done for. "
Standing on the side of the building, Eugene gritted his teeth with a trace of fear in his eyes.
That was a ferocious beast that could tear apart armor plates!
This group of brats who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth actually dared to circle around it in such a chaotic manner.
"Isn't this good? At least, it gives us more space to move around. But, we'll have to trouble you, sir. "
Olga, who was at the side, twitched the corner of her mouth, but unexpectedly, it pulled on the wound that was left when she met the surviving captain of the first team, Helda.
"I suggest you don't move around. You don't have to worry about State Zero. As long as you don't go up and touch it, State Zero won't care about them. "
Ray Mingkai, who was sitting by the bed, naturally saw the scene of State Zero being surrounded.
"Is that so? Then, it's really a big help. "
Although there wasn't much change on the surface, Ray Mingkai still felt that Olga was relieved.
"But, sir, I'm afraid CGS's debt can't be repaid."
"Oh? Is that fellow Maruba willing to abandon his coffers? "
Ray Mingkai naturally knew that in the battle just now, Maruba would be one of the casualties.
"Treasury?"
Olga silently muttered that sentence, then smiled slightly, but it pulled on the wound on her face again.
With a pained expression, Olga spoke again.
"I'm afraid your debt can't be collected. What do you plan to do next? "
"What do I do?"
Ray Mingkai glanced at Olga, then shifted his gaze to Eugene.
Sure enough, unlike Olga's calm gaze, which was waiting for Ray Mingkai to make a choice, Eugene's gaze was blazing.
It seemed that she really wanted Ray Mingkai to stay and use the so-called debt to influence Olga's actions.
This …
Is this inviting a wolf into the house?
Eugene, this guy!
"Let's see how it goes! And if we leave like this, I'm afraid Lars Horn won't let us go! "
Lei Mingkai's gaze passed over the field where the heavily damaged TK-53 mobile soldier was parked. He passed through the noisy gate, and also passed through the wilderness where there was still a trace of smoke. He seemed to be looking at something that Olga and Eugene couldn't see.
"Lars Horn?! You mean, they haven't given up? "
Olga was shocked and quickly asked.
"Give up? Olga, don't you think you're being too naïve? " Why would Lars Horn suddenly attack this unknown, third-rate company? Is her appearance not enough to make you think that this battle wasn't premeditated? "
"Gudelia Lana Bernstein? The girl who led the Mars independence movement. "
The thin layer of paper in Olga's mind might have been exposed by Lei Mingkai at this moment.
"Is that so? Before Gudelia is captured or even killed by Lars Horn, I'm afraid these attacks won't end. "
Thinking of this, Olga suddenly sighed.
"Old Maruba's death was not worth it! He didn't even know why he provoked Lars Horn, and he died without knowing. "
"It's not worth it or not. For people like Maruba, dying like this is already a good thing for him. "
Ray Mingkai knocked on the table and attracted Olga and Eugene's attention.
"About the debt, although Maruba is dead, CGS is still here. Therefore, the debt is still valid. Then, under this relationship, I hope to make a bet with Captain Olga. "
"Bet?"
Olga and Eugene asked in unison.
"Yes. Captain Olga, you do what you want to do. And I, after you succeed, will help you resist Lars Horn's attack. "
Ray Mingkai's words made Olga and Eugene look at each other in dismay.
It wasn't that they weren't surprised.
But they were puzzled by Ray Mingkai's confidence that everything would happen.
"Olga."
Eugene, who had been fighting with Olga, winked at Olga.
But Olga didn't pay any attention to Eugene.
"So, Your Excellency wants to be tied to CGS?"
“CGS？”
Lei Mingkai laughed heartily.
"CGS doesn't have the value of being tied to me. Captain Olga. "
"CG …."
Eugene subconsciously refuted, but Olga reached out and stopped him.
Under the dart bangs, there was a pair of eyes that seemed to be enlightened.
"Is that so? Then, I understand. Hopefully, Your Excellency will keep your promise. After all, we are like a group of bugs, and we can't resist Lars Horn's attack. "
Lei Mingkai stood up and walked to Olga's side. He raised his hand and patted Olga's shoulder.
"Olga. Since you think of you as bugs, then let me see the backbone of you bugs. "
When Ray Mingkai's footsteps gradually faded away, Olga lowered her head and smiled, the light in her eyes became more and more intense.
"Yes. Even if we are worthless bugs, we still have backbone. Your Excellency Ray Mingkai! "
"Bang!"
At night, a gunshot sounded from deep within the CGS base.
"Hmm? Kai. What are you looking at? Dinner is getting cold. "
Lacus looked at Ray Mingkai, who closed the window, puzzled.
"No, it's just that the wind is changing."
Ray Mingkai and White Lion, who was lying in the corner of the room, looked at each other.
"Aren't you going back to your original form?"
White Lion rolled his eyes and said helplessly:
"You think I don't want to? My current form is already the limit of maintaining the stability of the gamma rays. If I continue to compress my power, I'm afraid this area will become a forbidden zone for life after being bombarded by gamma rays. "
"Is it that serious?"
Ever since State Zero came to this world, this was the first time he mentioned the gamma rays that he absorbed.
From State Zero's description of his situation, Ray Mingkai felt that the word "stuffed" that he understood was not enough to describe State Zero's current situation.
"Yes. So, don't expect me to lie on your shoulder like before. "
After muttering a few words, White Lion turned over and closed his eyes.
"Alright! Isn't State Zero in a good state now? At least, the young people here are not afraid of State Zero's appearance. "
Lacus sent a bowl of borscht to Ray Mingkai.
"Come! Hurry up and eat! Before it gets cold. "
Lei Mingkai had already figured out what was going on the moment he looked into the bowl.
"This isn't made by you, Lacus, right?"
Lacus smiled.
"No. There are parts made by me, and parts made by others. Hmm, generally speaking, the borscht is made by me and Gudelia. "
"Uh …"
Ray Mingkai went silent.
