The silent steel giant once again stood in the wilderness that was ravaged by artillery fire.
On the shield in his left hand, a piece of red cloth was fluttering in the wind.
"A duel?"
Ray Mingkai looked at the piece of red cloth fluttering in the wind, then turned back to look at Olga and the others who were trying to disband Team One and take over CGS, but were interrupted by the sudden arrival of Greiz.
"Lars Horn of Gada? Did he really come? "
Olga took the binoculars from Takaki and looked at the Greiz that slowly landed at the perfect distance.
"Olga, what does that piece of red cloth mean?"
Olga frowned and touched the back of her head. She didn't know how to answer for a while.
"It means a duel. The pilot of this Greiz seems to want to duel with someone among us. "
Ray Mingkai moved his gaze and saw a clue from the fluttering red cloth.
The actions of this Greiz were not unexpected, but its target did not seem to be CGS, or one of Olga and the others.
In the slightly cool breeze, Crank walked out of the cockpit and stood next to Greiz's head monitor.
At this moment, his gaze traveled all the way up the wilderness, looking at the base where Galalhorn's actual combat force had suffered a crushing defeat. He looked at the group of people gathered around the CGS gate.
Judging from the sparse silhouettes, this civilian armed base did indeed use a lot of young soldiers.
In other words, the speculation that Crank and Ain said before was correct.
This made Crank's right hand that held the megaphone slightly tightened.
Facing the increasingly bone-chilling wind, Crank moved his gaze away from the gate of CGS and landed on the blade that was still inserted in the wilderness. It was still on the severed arm of Greiz piloted by Ain. Then he suddenly raised his gaze and looked at the gate of CGS again.
"I'm Crank Chant, who belongs to Lars Horn of Gada Gada! I hope to have a one-on-one duel with the owner of this blade! "
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze immediately turned to the figure standing in front of the door.
Everyone who had participated and witnessed that battle knew that the blade didn't come from anyone in CGS, but from Ray Mingkai.
"What a headache! I didn't expect this guy's target to be me. "
Ray Mingkai shrugged and said helplessly.
As he spoke, he glanced at the three suns and moons, who had their hands in their pockets and were watching everything unfold with their trademark expressionless faces.
Now that the Three Suns and Moons couldn't successfully sit on Babatos, it seemed like they needed a target.
What surprised Ray Mingkai was that Crank actually came to him.
At this moment, the wind once again carried Crank's voice to everyone's ears.
"Only the CGS of the mobile engineers is no match for Lars Horn's actual combat troops. However, under this understanding, you have defeated us and Lars Horn of the Mars branch! The person who can make you achieve such amazing results is probably the person behind the scenes who is directing all of this. "
Crank paused. His gaze moved around the entrance of CGS as if he wanted to find the mastermind behind the scenes among the sparse figures.
Suddenly, a gaze as cold as a sharp blade met Crank's gaze.
"That … That is!?"
At this moment, Crank felt a trace of coldness, but also a trace of excitement.
He didn't know what it was for.
But he knew that today's matter might have already come to an end.
His right hand that was holding the walkie-talkie tightened again.
"This is a one-on-one duel! If I win, you must hand over Goodelia Lana Bernstein and Gretz, who was captured by you. After the outcome is decided, everything else will be left to me! You, CGS, and Lars Horn of the Mars branch will no longer have anything to do with you! "
"Hand over Miss?"
Biscat was surprised.
"I told you!! Lars Horn of the Mars branch is here for Goodelia Lana Bernstein!! "
Todo, who was lying on the Mobile Engineer, waved his right hand repeatedly, trying to attract Olga's attention.
"Shut up! Clown! "
Unexpectedly, as soon as Todo finished his words, a huge pressure suddenly pressed him against the cold armor plate of the Mobile Engineer.
"You!!"
"Stop!"
In the midst of exclamations, a deep chill and sharp claws occupied Todo's thoughts and vision.
"Shut up! Clown who doesn't know what's good for you! "
Ray Mingkai's voice sounded again, making everyone who could only watch the giant white lion press Todo against the Mobile Engineer look at him again.
"Olga. Will you agree? "
Ray Mingkai raised his finger and pointed at Gretz, who was wearing a red cloth.
"Although that guy is a member of Lars Horn's actual combat force, he can't make any decisions. Especially when it comes to the sensitive issue of Goodelia Lana Bernstein. "
"About me?"
Goodelia was taken aback and pointed at herself.
"Didn't he say that as long as I'm handed over, the people here will be fine? Will he go back on his word after the fact? "
Ray Mingkai shook his head and looked at Lacus.
What happened next was not up to Ray Mingkai to explain.
"No. This Cronk Chant is probably not a person with real power in the Lars Horn of the Mars branch. Do you remember in the previous battle, the Gretz who kept shouting while attacking? I'm afraid that the pilot who piloted the Gretz was the commander of that battle. Therefore, this person who claims to be Cronk Chant is probably just here to clean up the mess. "
Lacus explained the situation and speculations as simply as possible to Goodelia and everyone else.
"In addition, you may not know, but outside the Mars ring, a cruiser from Earth, Lars Horn of the Mars headquarters is approaching here. The cruiser's mission is to monitor the operations of the Lars Horn of the Mars branch over the years. "
Lacus took a deep breath and stared at Goodelia.
"You should understand now, right?"
"A supervisor from Earth headquarters? That means the Mars branch is trying to bury some facts. And among these facts, I, Goodelia Lana Bernstein, am the biggest hidden danger?!! "
Gudelia was smart and quickly understood her situation after Lux's reminder.
Even if Olga and the others handed her over, the people in this base would still face the end of being killed.
Therefore, in this duel, the promise made by Cronk Chant was just an illusion.
"Do you understand? Then, it's my job now. "
Seeing Goodelia's expression, Ray Mingkai knew it was time for him to appear.
"Your Excellency Ray Mingkai! What are you doing? They are coming for CGS!! "
Olga hurriedly shouted as soon as he saw Lei Mingkai walk out of the CGS entrance.
Ray Mingkai stopped, looked back at Olga, and smiled.
"Coming for CGS? Hehe. Olga, don't be too arrogant! Cronk Chant chose me, not you! "
"But, but are you going to go over just like that? At the very least, you should be piloting a mobile engineer … "
Olga opened his mouth, but in the end, he only said this suggestion that even he couldn't believe.
"TK-53? Hehe. Don't underestimate me. Olga! "
Lei Mingkai let out a hearty laugh.
"Don't look at me like this, I still have partners that I can rely on!"
In the next second, under everyone's gaze, Ray Mingkai raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
The moment the loud sound resounded through CGS, there was a thunderous sound in the sky.
"Boom!"
In an instant, a gorgeous afterimage fell from the sky and landed directly behind the pure white blade.
"That … that's MS?!!"
A blue and black body, a mighty and tall body, and a pair of huge light wings shining with gorgeous flowing colors …
This was the true appearance of the MS that had suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, including Gretz's.
Its appearance not only shocked Cronk, but also made Olga and the others fall into a dead silence.
"Okay! Now, all the chess pieces are in place! The duel, can we start now? "
In the wilderness full of craters and scattered wreckage, two steel giants created by the top of human technology were facing each other with a distance of a hundred meters.
Every time the cold wind that gradually rolled up the mud and dust in the wilderness passed by the two steel giants, it couldn't help but become violent.
In the gradually violent wind, the reactor gradually increased its output and entered combat mode with a low roar.
Cronk's eyes were dignified.
He had never seen the MS in front of him before. Even in the database of Lars Horn and MS that he came into contact with, there was no such … strange, yet somehow sacred body.
It was a steel body that was completely different from the design concept of MS led by Lars Horn and MS.
The pair of dazzling and gorgeous light wings was something that Lars Horn and MS designers had never come into contact with or even imagined.
"What is the origin of this body?"
Clenching the joystick that had long become a part of his body, Cronk took a deep breath and stared at the body on the screen that pulled out the pure white blade inserted in the wilderness.
"Lars Horn and MS Horn Mars Branch Combat Force, Cronk Chant!"
A familiar scene.
A familiar tone.
Ray Mingkai was slightly stunned, then he laughed heartily.
"What a nostalgic scene! I don't know how many years it has been since I last saw such a scene! "
Ray Mingkai's words made Cronk frown.
Isn't it natural to announce your name before the duel?
"No! Sorry! I just felt the urge to say it! Cronk Chant! For me, such a formal duel is something that happened a long time ago! "
Under Ray Mingkai's clear voice, the sound of two locking mechanisms opening followed closely.
It was the sound of another pure white blade and a shield falling to the ground.
"You, are you insulting me?!"
Cronk looked at the sword and shield that splashed mud and dust and let out a low roar.
"No! This guy's name is Free Gao Da! With its performance and this blade, it is enough to duel with you! Cronk Chant! "
The pure white blade held by Free Gao Da's right hand cut through the sky, rolling up bursts of wind and thunder. Only when Free Gao Da held it up in front of him did Cronk understand Ray Mingkai's and even Free Gao Da's actions.
That,
It was the highest form of greeting that a knight would give to his opponent.
"You … Who exactly are you?"
So strange,
But there was some kind of ancient etiquette that reminded Cronk of the ancient era before the Calamity Sacrificial War.
"Legend has it that before the Calamity Sacrificial War, most people settled most of the disputes through duels. Isn't this also the idea that you proposed? Cronk Chant. "
Under the sun,
Under the pair of dazzling and gorgeous light wings, Free Gao Da, who was floating slightly off the ground and holding the blade with both hands, actually gave Cronk the illusion that he was looking at the Holy Knight mentioned in the myths.
"Hehe. Is that so? Thank you very much!! "
"Maybe it's a little arrogant! But this is the real me! Holy Britannia Empire's Queen's Guardian Knight, Ray Mingkai! "
"Join the battle!"
The wind blew in an instant.
The two steel giants launched their attacks on the spot, setting off a gust of wind that swept across the field, rolling up bursts of smoke and dust.
However,
The thunder-like sound of fierce battle that Olga and the others imagined didn't come.
Because the moment the gust of wind blew, the result of the duel was already decided.
The pure white blade was like lightning, instantly piercing through Greiz's cockpit.
Looking at the pure white blade that pierced through his chest and stopped the moment it pierced through his body, Cronk raised his head with difficulty and looked at the screen in front of him. But he couldn't see anything on the screen that was destroyed when the pure white blade pierced through the cockpit.
"Cough … So … So that's how it is!!"
His confusion and dissatisfaction towards the fact that Free Gao Da touched the other blade and shield had already disappeared.
The reason why the other party did that was not to humiliate him, but because one blade was enough to finish him off.
"Holy … Britannia … Empire? On Earth, is there such a country …? "
The operation of the Ahap Reactor stopped.
Just like its owner, Cronk Chant, it fell into a deathly stillness.
The only difference was that other than the cockpit being pierced through, there was no other damage. Greiz only needed some treatment before it could be used again.
The pure white blade pierced through the sky, scattering the captivating red entwined on the tip of the sword.
The pair of dazzling light wings also gradually folded, allowing Free Gao Da to stand on the ground again. The moment the youngsters exploded with cheers that resounded through the sky.
Without a doubt, the Free Gao Da who finished off Greiz in an instant had formed an incomparably powerful image in the hearts of the CGS youngsters.
"Olga. How about the name Ironflower Regiment? "
"Ironflower Regiment? Yes! This is a good name! Your Excellency Ray Mingkai. "
