Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 2064 The Flames of War at Dawn!
Under the lights, ten Destroyer Gundams were lined up in a row.

The cold light falling on their black armor instilled a sense of fear in everyone who witnessed their silence.

It was as if there was something within these cold, steel giants that instilled fear in these executioners, who were accustomed to life and death and whose hands were stained with countless dropes of blood.

"This is our confidence, this is the true essence of blue cosmos."

Clearly, these Destroyer Gundams are not something the current remnants of the Blue Cosmos Party could produce.

The real reason they were created now, when the Blue Cosmos' influence has greatly diminished and resources are constantly being depleted, is the support of the Ghost Faces.

However, after receiving this support, Michael did not immediately convert it into combat power, but chose to retain it.

However, by a twist of fate, this preservation gave Michael the confidence to fight against the Solar Energy Construction Alliance even after losing the support of the Ghost Faces.

"However, Colonel Michael, we don't have many enhanced humans right now, and the number of enhanced humans who meet the piloting requirements for the Destroyer Gundam is also..."

Unexpectedly, among his subordinates, there were those who calmly considered the situation.

Michael sneered.

"Ignore those enhanced humans. These Destroy Gundams have not needed those unstable parts since the day they were created."

The group exchanged glances and then stood at attention and saluted.

"Colonel, please give the order! This can't go on. Now that we have the ability to retaliate, let's not sit here and watch those solar energy construction alliances keep sending troops to our doorstep."

Michael understood his subordinates' thoughts very well.

However, he had been hesitant and waiting before, but now he could no longer continue to hesitate and wait.

"Have your soldiers prepare! Launch the attack at dawn!"

"Yes!"

His men left the underground space that had given them hope, filled with excitement, but Michael stayed behind. After his men left, Michael walked alone into the depths of the underground space.

In reality, his true trump card was not these ten Destroyer Gundams, but the ultimate weapon hidden deep within this underground space, which was personally built by the Ghost Faces and given to him.

As Michael's footsteps approached, the darkness shrouding the depths of the underground space was gradually dispelled by the lights that were turned on one by one, revealing the mysterious machine that was bathed in a calm, mirror-like light blue liquid before Michael's eyes.

"I never expected that even now, I'd still have to use you. Iron Colossus!"

The eve of dawn.

Finally, under Mikael's proactive deployment, the Blue Cosmos remnant officers, having regained some courage, rallied their soldiers and pilots to launch a surprise attack.

When ten Destroyer Gundams appeared on the ground, all the Blue Cosmos remnant soldiers, whose morale had been low due to the recent continuous appearances of Solar Energy Construction Alliance MS forces, shouted out and charged out of the line, yelling "For the blue and clean sky!"

Mobile forces, armored forces, and mobile suits all poured out at this moment, unleashing their strongest firepower upon the lines built by the Solar Energy Construction Alliance.

"Boom!!!"

The tranquility before dawn was shattered at this moment, marking the start of the final offensive.

"A call came from the ground battlefield; those remnants of the Blue Cosmos Party finally couldn't hold back any longer!"

After receiving the latest intelligence from CIC, Natasha Bakiruru looked at her companions and began to explain it on the tactical map that would then open.

"Mariu, Princess Sara, look. The Blue Cosmos remnants have activated at least ten Destroyer Gundams as the spearhead, launching a fierce attack on our positions from three directions. According to the ground command's prediction, once the defense line is breached, then from the eastern Mediterranean coast to the Middle East, and finally to the western region of the East Asian Republic, the Blue Cosmos remnants will be threatened." "Oh? They certainly know how to pick their opponents. Indeed, once the East Asian Republic is taken down, the Solar Energy Construction Alliance will be crippled by at least half its strength."

Salamandini sneered and said disdainfully.

"But unfortunately, even if they found the right opponent, it is impossible for them to break through to the western region of the East Asian Republic with those ten Destroyer Gundams, or even reach the Middle East defense line."

"Yes, that's true. The forces the alliance has recently mobilized are not all placed on the first line of defense in the general offensive. Even if the first line of defense is breached, the second line of defense from the Middle East, as well as the forces of the naval fleet, can still make up for the losses in a short time."

Maru nodded, a thoughtful glint in her eyes.

“Perhaps Michael wants to use the trump card that the Ghost Faces have given him. Your Highness Sara, perhaps you and your squad will have to wait a little while.”

Salamandini nodded.

"It's alright! Besides, it might not even be our turn to step in yet."

Salamandini's eyes flickered, and he looked in another direction as if sensing something.

Maru and Natasha Bakiruru looked in the direction Salamandini was looking, and found only an ordinary porthole and the deep space.

"What's wrong, Sarah?"

Natasha Bakiruru seemed to have guessed something, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"No. Not adults. But our old friends. They should be coming over."

Salamandini pointed to a point on the tactical map.

"Notify ground troops to be alert for unidentified warships that may appear on the battlefield at any time. They could very well be our reinforcements."

"?!"

Maru and Natasha Bakiruru exchanged glances, seemingly puzzled.

The latter thought for a moment and then let out a small gasp.

"Is it warp? Are warships going to warp directly into the battlefield?"

"Perhaps! I'll go prepare now! I'll leave this to you."

"Okay! See you later, Sarah!"

Immediately afterwards, Natasha Bakiruru noticed a mobile suit squad called "Reverse Feather" rapidly entering the battlefield from the southeast at the edge of the tactical map.

“Mariu, it seems the children at the research institute have grown up.”

Natasha Bakiruru immediately recognized that it was Kira and the others who had volunteered for the battle.

"Yes! They are all strongly demanding to participate in the war and hope to prove their Reverse Feather fighter jets through this war. In fact, the value of the Reverse Feather fighter jets has already been proven by their efforts a long time ago."

Maru was very pleased, but also helpless.

Her gaze shifted upwards to the top of the tactical map, where several squadrons of mass-produced Akabane fighters, improved versions of the Reverse Feather fighter, were rapidly advancing, heading straight for the center of the battlefield, becoming the first reinforcements to support the front lines.

"Perhaps the children have their own new ideas! After this war ends, there probably won't be any major conflicts for the next few years. So, this is a rare opportunity."
