Chapter 266 What happened to Aslan?

The battle was suspended, but without warning, the ZAFT army gave up the pursuit of the Archangel. The Vesalius followed the Archangel with five Lorathia-class battleships, heading towards the previously agreed coordinates.

However, compared to the previous relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, everyone in the ZAFT army frowned and felt deeply troubled.

"What on earth are they? These four MSs." Captain Addis looked at the Heretic Gundam Blue Machine, Energizer, Cherubim, and Virtue Angel in the picture, and he had a lot of thoughts.

"Is it another body developed secretly by the Earth Army?" Aslan wondered.

"No, it shouldn't be." Cruze shook his head and directly rejected this possibility.

"That is……"

"Have their body data been analyzed?" Cruze asked Captain Addis.

"Based on the last battle record, we have made a preliminary judgment." As he spoke, Captain Addis opened the analysis data, "This blue body has worse overall performance than the X series, and it is not equipped with PS armor, but the machine The technology of the pilot should not be underestimated; the other three aircraft are also not equipped with PS armor, but their overall performance is not inferior to that of the X series. They should be from the same series of aircraft, but they are not the same as the blue aircraft. The pilots are also good. "

Hearing this, Aslan also gave up his previous thoughts and was convinced that this was not a new mobile phone secretly developed by the Earth Army. After all, the X series was the forerunner. They didn't even get the first batch of self-produced MS, and judging from the OS, Natural people cannot use it freely.

So...which force do these organisms belong to?

At this moment, a familiar face flashed through Aslan's mind.

"Could it be..."

There was a guess in his mind, but Aslan still didn't say anything. He once again violated his duty as a soldier.

"Hmm...have you found out what organization it is?" Cruze asked.

"Yes..." Captain Addis called up two pieces of information again and explained to Cruze, "...it has been confirmed that the blue machine belongs to the [Serpent's Tail] mercenary organization, and its leader is Cong Yungui. He is an adjuster. Data shows that he and [Serpent's Tail] are currently the best mercenaries. The commission completion rate ranks first. The industry also rates Cong Yungui himself quite highly; the other three machines... Only information about this logo can be found.”

"Logo?"

"Yes, this is the logo of the mercenary organization [Celestial Being], but... we can only find the name, members, establishment time, mission records... all are unknown, as if it appeared out of thin air."

"Huh? This is interesting." Cruze raised the corner of his mouth and directly confirmed that the [Celestial Beings] were just wearing the skin of a mercenary organization, and their true identity is probably...

"Captain, Captain Addis, if Cong Yunqi is the adjuster, can we..."

"Impossible." Captain Addis knew that Aslan was going to propose the idea of ​​persuading the other party to surrender. It must be said that he was really naive.

"Why? We are all adjusters."

"Since [Serpent's Tail] became famous, both the Earth Army and our ZAFT have invited them more than once, but they have been rejected. Money, beauty, power, status, the other party is not interested, just like in the sky An eagle that flies freely does not want to be locked in a cage," Kruse said to Aslan.

[Giant Snake's Tail] He is quite familiar with it. He himself has fought against Cong Yungui, and the two are on par with each other, which is worthy of praise.

"how so……"

Aslan couldn't understand that Kira was like this and Cong Yungui was like this. They were all adjusters and compatriots. Shouldn't they unite together to resist the cruel and despicable Earth Army?

"People have all kinds of ideas, Aslan."

"yes……"

"What about [Celestial Being]? Can we contact him?" Aslan asked again. Although he didn't know the other party's information, he was able to drive a mobile suit and was very good at it. He could only be an adjuster, at least aslan. thought.

"It has already been done. The other party rejected the communication request." Captain Addis said.

"..."

"Okay, Aslan, get ready to board the plane. We will arrive at the designated coordinates soon."

"yes."

"Addis, how many mobile suits do we have left?"

"Including Team Rackney and Team Bolt, there are 17 [Jeans]. Our team only has Holy Shield, Duel, Storm, Thunder, and the captain's [Sigur]."

"Is the loss so big?" Cruze frowned slightly.

"Most of the losses were at the hands of four unknown machines."

"It's really troublesome... Enter the second-level combat configuration. After arriving at the agreed coordinates, all MS troops will attack and stand by near the battleship."

"yes!"

After giving the order, Cruze also left the bridge. This time he was going to attack. The Eighth Fleet was coming. Their chances were running out. It would be difficult if they didn't sink the Archangel here. In this way, Come on, starting from [Heliopolis], all the decisions he makes will become a joke.

…

Everyone on the Archangel was also very nervous at this time. They arrived at the agreed coordinates immediately. Their trump cards to save their lives were about to be handed over. The Eighth Fleet was not far away, but the enemy was following too close, and their combat power was qualified to compete with the First Fleet. The eight fleets competed, and no one knew whether the ZAFT army would attack after receiving Lux.

Although both [Serpent's Tail] and [Celestial Being] have shown strong combat effectiveness, even surpassing Strike Gundam, the imbalance of combat power between the two sides is serious and cannot give them a sense of security at all.

"Arrived at the designated coordinates, Captain..."

Ma Liu looked at the ZAFT fleet not far away through the glass of the bridge, and her nervous heart could not calm down.

"[Mobius Zero], the Flaka machine is on standby. Let Kira take the VIPs to get ready."

"learn."

Ma Liu looked at Yang Hui, who nodded, took over the communication control work, and contacted [Snake Tail] and [Celestial Being].

"All planes are on standby. If the ZAFT army abandons its responsibility to the VIP, it will make every effort to rescue the VIP and return."

"Understood."XN

"X105, strike, Kira Yamato, prepare to attack."

"Understood, Yang Hui..."

"Don't worry, I'll be back after seeing you off, and there's Lux..."

"I know what to do."

"Leave it to you, attack, please attack."

"Kira Yamato, attack with force, attack."

After the Strike Gundam attacked, it did not deliver Lux to the ZAFT army immediately. Instead, it stayed around the Archangel and waited for Yang Hui's instructions.

Yang Hui also immediately sent a communication request to the ZAFT army.

"This is the ZAFT army, the captain of Team Kruse, Rau Lu Cruze."

The blond masked man, with his mysterious smile, and his scheming and sinister temperament made people feel uncomfortable even across the screen, but the corners of Yang Hui's mouth curled up. This was his first meeting with Cruze, right? It's unique, but Yang Hui is also looking forward to the next contact with Cruze, because...he needs an old fox and old bastard like Cruze in his team.

"This is Yang Hui. Miss Lux Klein is in the Strike Gundam. Your fleet has retreated to coordinates (762.124), and can only be received by the X303 Aegis Gundam alone."

"We do not agree with your request and cannot guarantee the safety of Ms. Lux Klein and the X303 Aegis Gundam."

"You have no choice but to meet our requirements. The fleet retreats and allows the X303 Aegis Gundam to come alone to receive Miss Lux Klein. If you do not agree, we will regard you as giving up on Lux. All liability of Miss Klein shall be terminated immediately.”

"...Okay, we agree to your request, but please abide by the spirit of the contract and do not allow any form of attack on Miss Lux Klein and X303 Holy Shield before the return is completed."

"No problem, please retreat, arrive at the designated coordinates, and return will begin."

"good."

At the end of the exchange, Kruse reluctantly accepted Yang Hui's request, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He hadn't been depressed for an unknown period of time. All his actions were currently going towards his plan, but as soon as Yang Hui appeared, he was frustrated one after another. This feeling of being led by the nose is too frustrating.

If possible, Kruse wanted to sink the Archangel together with Lux Klein and Yang Hui. In this way, the chaos he needed would be initially completed.

But he didn't dare. The identity of the ZAFT army was still very important to Cruze and he couldn't give it up.

"team leader……"

"Back off, we have no choice. Recovering Miss Lux is our priority."

"learn……"

"Despicable natural man!"

"Damn it! You actually use Miss Lux's safety to survive."

"If you're a man, let's fight openly!"

…

Everyone in the ZAFT army felt aggrieved and scolded Yang Hui for being too despicable. Since we are all soldiers, we should set up our battle array and fight openly and openly!

Threatening them with civilians is the most despicable thing to do!

But they had no choice but to retreat with the fleet.

Aslan's Aegis Gundam remained where it was. He was in a very complicated mood. He was about to bring Lux back, and he would also be able to meet Kira. He was still thinking about how to convince Kira to come to ZAFT. With the abilities that Kira has shown so far, he can be reused immediately, and being able to fight side by side with his good friends is what Aslan is looking forward to most.

And Yang Hui...

He wanted to understand why Yang Hui did this? Since the encounter at [Heliopolis], Aslan has been thinking about this question. Why does Yang Hui help the Earth Army and threaten them with Lux's life? Is it really because he is not an adjuster?

After the ZAFT army's fleet retreated to the designated coordinates, Kira and Aslan received instructions at the same time and moved towards each other. When they were about to reach a face-to-face position, the two planes stopped at the same time and opened the cockpit.

Seeing that Lux and Kira were indeed in the cockpit of the Strike Gundam, Aslan was relieved. At least this was not a trap.

But when Lacus flew out of the cockpit of the Strike Gundam and came to Aslan's side, he was dumbfounded.

Because... Lux's space suit is rumblingly bulging around her belly. It must be at least... seven or eight months old, right? What did you...miss? Still encountered something! ?
