Gundam: The wind blowing through the universe

"vomit"

"Want some water?"

"Wait a minute."

On the khaki slope, Cagalli was kneeling on the ground and retching continuously. Due to the long space voyage, she and Stella had recently eaten liquid food specially designed for pilots, so most of what they vomited was just stomach acid. That’s all.

Just at the feet of the two of them, a pale palm stretched lifelessly in the dry soil. Stella smelled the smell of corpses a few minutes ago, and then Cagalli followed her over a small slope. In a not-so-large open space, both of them discovered that the soil above had traces of human disturbance. .

After discovering the anomaly, Cagalli wanted to return to Heretic Heaven and use the power of MS to dig out the soil. As a result, Stella directly pulled out the tactical dagger and started digging the hole, and dug out a hand in just two strokes.

"Do you want to continue? There will definitely not be only one body inside."

"Go on, we have to know what happened here. Get this body out first, and then I'll go to Heretic Heaven and dig the dagger for as long as it takes."

At this moment, Cagalli's tenacity was clearly revealed. She smoothed her chest with force, and then together with Stella, she dug the 'owner' of the palm out of the soil.

"Siegfried!!!"

After seeing the corpse's face clearly, Cagalli's eyes suddenly turned red. She was about to step forward and throw herself on the corpse, but Stella pulled her back.

"He is not Siegfried. There are no traces of life on this body."

"But...the corpse..."

"There are no traces of life, don't you understand? This body never awoke, so he is not Siegfried."

She specializes in the art, and Stella was trained as a murder weapon, so she can tell whether there are traces of biological activity from the details on the corpse, and thus conclude that the corpse is not Siegfried, but Cagalli had never been exposed to this kind of knowledge, and the impact of Siegfried's face made her confused.

"Furthermore, Siegfried has scars on his forehead, burn marks on his hands, and his left arm and chest have been fractured. There is nothing on this body. Don't panic, Cagalli, Siegfried is not dead."

"But. I can't sense him. This is the first time I've lost contact with him since I became a changer. I."

"As long as Siegfried is alive, we will definitely find him!"

But things did not get better with Stella's comfort, especially when the Heretic Heaven's first excavation action pulled out countless broken limbs from the soil, Cagalli had to be forced to enter the transformation Otherwise, she would be driven into a lunatic state by these 'Siegfrieds' sooner or later.

"There are already over 60 corpses. Where is this place?"

"This is Siegfried's home."

When the matter reached this point, it was no longer something Stella and Cagalli could handle. However, Genesis Alpha has just begun to move, and it is expected that there will be 20 days before it can return to Orb's scheduled coordinates. The island's defense strength has dropped below the red line. Due to circumstances and reasons, Orb cannot and should not continue to send manpower to Mendel. .

Moreover, the distance between Mendel and Orb exceeds the maximum range of communication. Although Cagalli really wants to contact Hilde and at least ask what is going on here, that will have to wait until the Heretic Heaven returns to Heaven. Only the Imperial Pillar can do it.

So the two could only bury those corpses again. At the same time, the Heretic Heaven also left Mendel. All the fog prompted Cagalli to return to Orb immediately, and then they could decide whether to send the Cloud to escort Hilde to Mendel. Del decided to wait until the situation stabilized slightly before making any plans.

Just when the Heretic Sky left Mendel, Siegfried also destroyed a group of satellites. After the two local garrison fleets of Nigel and Eric left, PLANT, which was already short of manpower, was unable to stop it for a while. Due to this loophole, the satellite groups of several municipal-level units experienced a defensive vacuum at the same time.

Because it had not been long since Aslan had just won the Battle of Paradise Base on the ground, and the fact that Siegfried single-handedly razed the Daedalus Base had gradually spread from the Earth Circle to PLANT, so even if Fibrali was included Us City and Matius City are currently in a defenseless state, and the Supreme Council does not believe that they will be attacked from the universe.

L5 Yuyu is a resource satellite with no abnormality on the outside. After peeling off the thick rock shell, the interior is like a terminal factory hidden somewhere. It is a mini mini-computer that integrates MS maintenance and production. factory.

At this time, a large number of intelligent maintenance systems were used inside the factory, so there was almost no sign of anyone busy. However, the four cold MSs on the maintenance racks highlighted the special nature of the base.

If Siegfried or Canard were here, they would be able to recognize at a glance that two of the four mobile suits were the Covenant and Purple that had appeared in the Dardanelles to ambush Aslan and tried to blame Orb. heresy.

Next to these two MSs is the Gale Strike that once appeared in the Junius Shard, but the last MS, which is not in the same style as the design style of the entire CE world, is the top priority.

Since Sour Berry was taken away by unknown forces in South America, Orb and East Asia have spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find the whereabouts of this nuclear-armed MS with strategic strike capabilities.

But as PLANT went to war with Atlantic Ocean, the world situation quickly began to slide towards chaos. In the end, Orb and East Asia had no choice but to give up the pursuit. Among them, HCLI returned 30% of the special development funds for the No. 2 machine out of commercial ethics. %, but Dongya feels somewhat unspeakably bitter about holding this fund.

From HCLI's point of view, refunding some money is not a big deal. At the same time, the main island and several new MS/MAs are already equipped with phantom particle radars. Even if the No. 2 machine was later installed with phantom particles, the CE of Mirage The specialty is almost immune to Orb.

But what East Asia wants is not 30% of the development funds at all. They urgently want a mobile suit that can carry out strategic attacks as a trump card. In the trilogy of GP plans given by Hilde, the FB form of Thunderbolt Gundam has begun mass production. Lan Dongya purchased three aircraft and deployed them in Artemis. Only the most important No. 2 machine, Sour Berry, had a problem. Even if HCLI refunded all the money, it would not help.

"Congressman Jiuer, your son is about to raid the secret terminal factory with ND. Are you really not going to say something to him?"

A blond man was holding the railing and speaking softly to the white-haired woman next to him. After hearing the distant and vague title of 'Congressman Jiu'er, Aisalia Jiuer was absent-minded for a moment, and then The cold expression quickly returned to his face.

"That's just a tool. He is not my son and he is not worthy of being my son."

"Yitzhak will be sad if he hears it."

"I don't have such a good-for-nothing son. If he hadn't been merciful during the Dardanelles, we would have killed Aslan long ago, and Orb would have been forced to join the Atlantic to fight against PLANT. There is no need to be like this! "

"We photocopiers have all inherited the memories of the original body. It is inevitable that he still regards Aslan as a friend in his heart."

Aisalia Jiuer looked at the covenant not far away with disgust, and then asked as if she deliberately changed the subject: "Has the target of the nuclear bomb attack been selected? If the target is chosen in Matiu If we go to Si City, I can get the communication code, and with this, the mobile suit can successfully approach the satellite group."

"Why don't we draw lots to decide this? Congressman Jiuer."

"I'm not interested in anything other than revenge. Take care of yourself, you loser!"

On the first day of September, let’s open a big one first.
