Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 1019 What a terrible man!
If Wolf Franken knew the old proverb of He Ming's hometown, he would probably sigh when he saw Yulisa, Melda and others rushing in with their men - hunting geese all day, only to have the geese peck your eyes.

As the captain who commanded the UX-01 dimensional submarine to carry out many special missions, Wolf Franken had witnessed many similar scenes.

However, in similar scenes in the past, I was always the victorious party, standing in front of the loser, looking at those panicked faces.

But now, the loser in the past is myself.

Wolf Franken moved his eyes to look at his subordinates on both sides and found that they seemed to have no reaction to the enemy rushing into the bridge. Instead, they fell into a dazed expression similar to being in a dream.

Seeing this, Wolf Franken turned his gaze to Mireille Linke who was standing on the left side of Yulisa.

"Officer Linkat. I didn't expect the traitor among us would be you."

"No. I just made what I thought was the right choice. In the past, President Abelt Desla did rescue Misela and me from that prison planet. But, over the years, as his shadow and as the sharp knife for eliminating his political enemies, I have paid enough price and reward."

Mireille Linke said calmly, not shaken at all by Wolf Franken's accusation.

Looking at Mireille Linke's eyes that seemed to have some kind of attraction, Wolf Franken slowly closed his eyes and snorted coldly.

"Is the hound raised by the president going to turn against his master? Well, I surrender. But I hope that you, Officer Linkat, can restore my men to consciousness. Otherwise, this ship may have to stay in the subspace for a long time and cannot return to the real universe."

"Captain Franken, there is no need to bother you with this question! Mr. Anino and I are capable of piloting the UX-01."

When Wolf Franken attempts to exchange control of UX-01 for his own gain, ALTER steps out from the crowd and, along with the intelligent AI cube Anino standing on his shoulders, states that they can control UX-01.

"You? A puppet soldier?"

Looking at ALTER, who exuded an unusual aura, Wolf Franken suddenly realized that the puppet soldiers in front of him were fundamentally different from the puppet soldiers used by Gamilas.

"You? You have self-awareness?!"

ALTER gave Wolf Franken a gentlemanly greeting and spoke slowly.

"Captain Wolf Franken. I am ALTER, a puppet soldier who has awakened to self-realization under the guidance of the two princesses."

After saying that, ALTER no longer paid attention to Wolf Franken, walked straight to the helmsman's position, and gently moved the helmsman who was in a dream away, then took control of UX-01 in his hands.

"Dude. You take care of the movement of this ship, and I'll take care of the other systems."

When ALTER took the helm, Anino jumped off his shoulder and transformed a large number of small cables, which quickly spread along the operating table and began to invade and crack the systems of UX-01.

"Understood! Please, Mr. Anino."

A puppet soldier and a computing puppet core that is only the size of a palm but seems to have enormous computing power. Seeing the two joining forces, Wolf Franken realized that it would be difficult to reverse the situation.

"I suppose you are the Princess Yulisa. What can I do for you?"

Seeing that things were impossible, Wolf Franken quickly adjusted and made a breakthrough on Yulisa's side.

"No. Just sit aside."

Yulisa didn't want to do anything that Wolf Franken did. On the contrary, she seemed to be very interested in the layout of the bridge of UX-01.

"Hise no Na. Once you have this captain under control, move them to a safe place and keep them under guard."

Yulisa thought about it and finally decided to let only Wolf Franken stay on the bridge, and let Hoshina Toru send people to transfer the others to the gathering place and keep them under unified supervision.

After all, the reason why they were able to control these crew members without casualties was because of the power of Mireniel Linke. But the power of Mireniel Linke was not unlimited.

In order to avoid accidents, Yulisa decided to let Mireniel Linke reduce the consumption of power as soon as possible.

Hoshina Toru, who also guessed this, immediately sent people into action.

After a while, there were only a few people left in the entire bridge.

"Captain Franken, you will stay like this for now! I will have someone release you after the battle is over."

While Yulisa was pulling Mireille Linke around the bridge of UX-01, Melda Dietz spoke.

"No. That's not necessary. I never thought I'd end up like this. Why did Officer Linkat betray me?"

Wolf Franken calmly accepted the current situation and the fact that he was captured, but he could not understand why the Gilles sisters, who had always been loyal to Abelt Desla and were not afraid of being called witches by the outside world, would suddenly rebel?
"That, I don't know. But, it might be because of He Ming. Um, the pilot of the white space fighter."

Melda Dietz also didn't know the agreement He Ming and Mireille Linke made in the spiritual space, she just guessed the general outline.

"The white space fighter? Is it that space fighter again? Lieutenant Dietz, it seems that the pilot of that space fighter is behind this battle and is manipulating everything behind the scenes, right?"

After a little thought, Wolf Franken vaguely saw a terrible plan from the sudden rebellion of Mireille Linke, which led to the silent invasion and control of UX-01.

"Wait! Bada Star?!"

Wolf Franken's eyes widened and his expression suddenly changed.

In horror, he looked at Melda Dietz.

"Lieutenant Dietz, are you aware that your father, Commander-in-Chief Gal Dietz, has been arrested and imprisoned?"

Melda Dietz was horrified when she heard this.

"What?! Father was arrested and imprisoned?! Why?!"

Apparently, Melda Dietz was unaware that Gal Dietz was imprisoned as one of the masterminds of the assassination that was carried out by Abel Desla.

“Really? I guess Lieutenant Dietz, who has been on the Yamato the whole time, probably doesn’t know about it! That man is so scary!”

Wolf Franken could not see any trace of falsehood on Melda Dietz's shocked and worried face, and he showed a self-deprecating smile.

"Lieutenant Dietz. There is no need to worry about the safety of Commander-in-Chief Dietz. I believe the pilot of the white space fighter has already led the fleet to rescue him."

After a pause, Wolf Franken looked at the scene where, with the cooperation of ALTER and Anino, Yulisa had successfully learned to use the periscope to observe the scenes in the real universe.

"Then, that man will probably rush here with Commander-in-Chief Dietz and the fleet to persuade General Demel to surrender."

After saying this, Wolf Franken sighed deeply.

"They were an inferior race wandering in the inner galaxy not long ago, but they came here in such a short time. They saw through the true strength of our Gamilas Empire at a glance, and then arranged all this, spreading a large net for General Demel that he could not escape."

"What a terrible man!"
