Gundam, the Gundam journey of a certain glue guy and his mecha girl.

Fortunately, his inner struggle didn't last long. After an explosion, the door to the control room was forcibly blown open, and a slender figure slowly walked into the control room under the protection of Marines.

Lux stepped out of the crowd and met Patrick's gaze as he turned around.

"That's enough, Your Excellency Patrick. Please stop here."

"Stop? Why should I stop? The revenge for the 243,721 people on Junius VII will be taken soon, and you're trying to stop me now?"

"Your Excellency Patrick, the nation is not a tool for your revenge!"

Contrary to her delicate appearance, Lux's voice was extremely firm.

"If you really launch Genesis onto Earth, where will we PLANT stand? Without our future, how far can we go? Have you really thought about these questions?"

"It's not your place, you traitor, to lecture me!"

Patrick's eyes were bloodshot.

"The path I have chosen will lead to PLANT's true future! With the excellence of us Coordinators, there is no obstacle we cannot overcome, unlike those inferior Naturals!"

"It's a real shame, Your Excellency Patrick."

Realizing that further conversation was pointless, Lux nodded to Andrew beside her, signaling him to step forward, restrain Patrick, and end the war.

However, Patrick gave a mocking smile, his gaze sweeping across the screen displaying the Genesis status before finally settling back on Lux's face.

"You don't actually think you've won, do you? Someone, press the self-destruct button on Yakin Dewey!"

Patrick shouted orders at the operator.

"Once you're deep enough in the control room, there's no escape. The self-destruct program of Yakin-Duvee Fortress is linked to the launch program of Genesis. Once the self-destruct program is activated, no one can stop it. You'll just have to watch Genesis launch from here, watch how Genesis opens up the future for us Coordinators!"

However, Patrick soon noticed that his command had gone unanswered; the self-destruct button had not been pressed.

"What are you doing? Press the self-destruct button! Aren't you listening to me?!"

No one moved in the control room, and Patrick's sanity finally snapped in the silence.

His face contorted as he raised his pistol and pointed it at Lux.

But Andrew was faster; Patrick had barely raised his gun when a bullet struck him in the head.

Lux pursed her lips, walked towards Patrick's corpse that was still glaring at her, and, ignoring the splattering blood, reached out and closed Patrick's eyes.

"Please immediately cancel the Genesis launch program, terminate all charging processes, and then inform the entire army of His Excellency Patrick's death."

"This war should end."

Chapter 98 Fusion

Upon locating the USS Doolittle, Raven chose to stop dodging and sink the nuclear bomber.

But this doesn't come without a price.

To ensure a hit, Deep Strike paused briefly at the moment of firing, while Divine Will, which had been relentlessly pursuing Deep Strike, did not miss the opening that Raven had so painstakingly revealed.

The dragon riders of divine will swarmed in from all directions simultaneously, setting up a deadly net of high-energy beams around Deep Strike.

This time, Cruz finally succeeded.

Several beams simultaneously struck the massive beam cannon on the right shoulder of the Deep Strike Force. El managed to separate it in time, preventing the Deep Strike Force from being further damaged in the beam cannon's detonation.

The disc-shaped composite sensor on its left shoulder was also rendered useless by the dragon riders' fire.

The four large thrusters supporting the deep assault operation were also not spared, losing half of their thrust under the volley of fire from the dragon riders.

If El hadn't activated the light wave defense shield in time, blocking most of the firepower aimed at the Deep Assault's torso, the Deep Assault would never have been able to escape the Dragon Knights' encirclement and attack.

Kruze's offensive was far from over. While launching an all-out attack with his dragon riders, Divine Will brandished his beam saber and charged straight into the depths of the assault.

Just as Deep Strike finished dealing with the Dragon Knights' siege, Divine Will cut in and closed in. Having lost half of its thrust, Deep Strike was unable to shake off Divine Will immediately, and Raven could only hastily deal with the hand-to-hand combat launched by Divine Will.

The Phantom Particle Control Device installed at the muzzle of the Elf Beam Cannon had its power limit lifted by Raven. This device, originally only used to guide the beam's trajectory, briefly withstood the divine will's beam saber under overload.

However, the Elf Beam Cannon was ultimately just a ranged weapon. It only held out for a brief moment against the Divine Will's beam saber before the barrel was cleaved in two. Yet, it was this brief moment that the Elf Beam Cannon gained that allowed the wire-controlled cannon to complete its firing preparations.

The small wire-controlled cannon that was aimed at the head of the deep strike had already been silently released by El when the divine will entered close range.

Under El's control, the wire-controlled cannon circled behind the divine will, activating the internal capacitors and unleashing three emerald green beams.

Kruze's astonishing intuition about danger allowed him to sheathe his sword and retreat in time. He deactivated his beam saber, raised his composite shield in front of him, and simultaneously launched a rapid reverse-firing attack, attempting to escape the firing range of the wire-controlled cannon as quickly as possible.

Kruze's reaction was undoubtedly timely. The two beams aimed at the cockpit of the Divine Will hit the Divine Will's composite shield. However, the last beam, with El's deliberate aim, hit the Judgment Beam Rifle that the Divine Will was carrying on its right arm.

However, Kruze also discovered this wire-controlled cannon. As the divine will retreated, the Vulcan cannon on its head formed a dense barrage, directly tearing the wire-controlled cannon apart.

"You're really capable, shortsword pilot! No, I should call you Raven."

Raven ignored Kruze's trash talk and piloted the Deep Strike away from Divine Will. However, having lost half of its thrust, the Deep Strike lost its astonishing acceleration and could no longer shake off Divine Will. After a brief recharge, Divine Will's dragon riders were released again, and eleven dragon rider submachine guns once again surrounded the Deep Strike.

"I knew you couldn't be easily defeated. The only person in this world qualified to defeat you is me!"

The beam of light once again filled the space around Deepstrike.

Alarms continued to blare in the cockpit. El activated the cooled-down light wave defense shield again, while Raven kept pulling the control stick, trying his best to make Deep Strike dodge the rain of beams of divine will.

However, this has its limits. The light wave defense shield quickly overloaded under the volley of the dragon riders, and the Deep Strike, which had lost half of its thrust, was simply unable to dodge the next volley from the dragon riders.

However, at that moment, Al suddenly detected two familiar signals.

"These are... the S Gundam's G-Strike Fighter and G-Bombardment?"

"It must have been the Archangel that brought them here, El. Prepare to separate the parts. Once the G-Attack Ship and G-Bombardment Ship are within docking range, immediately begin the combination process!"

However, although Raven made it sound easy, the separation and reassembly of the S Gundam still takes a short time, and there is an additional step of separating the Deep Assault Components.

With Kruze keeping a close eye on Raven, how could he possibly give S Gundam a chance to complete the combination process?

"Hurry, Raven, El! The Archangel has sent the spare parts!"

Behind the G-attack aircraft and G-bombers, Mu piloted his cannon-type assault vehicle at full speed toward Divine Will.

"I'm here to buy you time to switch forms! I'm the man who makes the impossible possible!"

The assault vehicle swiftly swept past the already dilapidated Deep Assault, its beam rifle rapidly charging, and several precise shots struck the Divine Will, forcing Kruze to abandon his pursuit of Raven.

"Mu la Vlada, even now you still dare to obstruct me!"

The sudden intrusion of Mulingkruze was extremely troubling. Driven by his will, the Dragon Cavalry launched another attack, surrounding the intruding assault.

"Is it an armament similar to a wire-controlled cannon?"

Mu saw the flash of the thruster pass by on Shenyi's backpack and, without hesitation, launched all four wire-guided cannons from the backpack.

Mu was quite familiar with this kind of weapon that could launch all-around attacks, but the dragon cavalry of the Divine Will far exceeded Mu's expectations.

Unlike wire-controlled cannons, which require pilot input, the Divine Will Dragon Riders, driven by the mental sensing framework, react much faster than the Assault's wire-controlled cannons.

Mu's wire-controlled cannons had just been launched and hadn't even had a chance to fully deploy when the Divine Will's dragon cavalry completely surrounded the four wire-controlled cannons, and all four cannons were shot down in an instant.

"what?!"

"Our ill-fated relationship ends here. Go to that world and meet Al da Vlada!"

Kruze thoroughly enjoyed the process of gradually driving his prey into despair. First, two beams pierced through Strike's backpack, then his legs, and finally his main surveillance camera.

Finally, a dragon knight aimed its cannon at the assault cockpit.

Farewell, Mu la Vlada!

A beam of emerald green shot out from the dragon knights' cannons, but this beam, which should have killed Mu completely, failed to penetrate the assault's cockpit.

The replaced Deep Assault component flew in and blocked the assault, completing its final mission.

Just as the attack was entangling the divine will, the S Gundam completed its transformation. Under the golden V-shaped antenna, the binocular surveillance lights up again, and the blue and white silhouette of the S Gundam rapidly approaches the divine will.

Chapter 99 Departure

"Damn it, that's so embarrassing!"

In the pitch-black cockpit, Mu let out a frustrated and resentful sound.

Despite being a dragon knight facing divine will for the first time, he couldn't even last one round.

Although Mu was very unwilling, he knew that the assault team was no longer combat-capable and that staying would only be a burden. He could only withdraw from the battlefield under the cover of the S Gundam.

However, before retreating, Mu threw the still-intact beam rifle in his hand at the S Gundam.

"You must come back alive! Don't forget there are people waiting for you!"

"Of course! I still have so many things I want to do!"

S Gundam did not slow down at all after receiving the beam rifle. As soon as it got its hands on it, it pointed the muzzle at a dragon knight that was approaching from a tricky angle.

The moment the dragon knight was locked on, it quickly disappeared from S Gundam's sight, while another dragon knight had already quietly circled around to S Gundam's back.

However, Raven was prepared. Kruze's murderous intent was so obvious that Raven understood Kruze's intentions without much effort.

The gesture of aiming the gun was just a feint. At the same time that the attacking Draper was in place, the S Gundam suddenly rolled on the spot, changed the orientation of the machine, and pointed the beam cannon on its back at the Draper.

The dragon riders of divine will were destroyed for the first time.

"Don't think that the S Gundam is still the same as before!"

Unlike the Deep Strike Gundam, the S Gundam's basic form is the one that prioritizes flexibility and mobility, and is also the form best suited for mobile suit combat.

"Hmm? The flow has changed?"

Kruze's pupils contracted slightly beneath his mask. In his world, the radiance emanating from the S Gundam was growing ever brighter, causing Kruze to feel a sense of crisis for the first time.

With a thought, the fluctuations emanating from his mental sensing framework suddenly intensified, and the remaining dragon riders rushed towards S Gaoda from all directions.

However, inside the cockpit of the S Gundam, the biosensors also received the strong mental waves emitted by the divine will, and Raven reacted in advance.

The S Gundam leaned back, its thrusters firing at full power. Before all the Dragals were in position, it made a maneuver. The beams of seven small Dragals grazed the fuselage, leaving burn marks on the armor, but none of them hit.

As it leaned back, the S Gundam fired a volley of beam cannons from its waist, precisely blocking the movement of one of the Dragoons. It then followed up with a burst of fire from its beam rifle, destroying another Dragoon.

However, the attacks from the divine will are never-ending. Three large dragon riders that anticipated the movement of the S Gundam had already circled around it, and a total of 27 beams once again sealed off the space around the S Gundam. The remaining small dragon rider then aimed at the S Gundam's torso and delivered a fatal blow.

But faced with this seemingly inescapable dead end, Raven calmly responded.

S Gundam stopped its movement in time, bringing its body to a stop in the gap of the large dragon rider's firing. Then, S Gundam drew its beam saber from its left arm and used the beam blade to disperse the shots aimed at its torso.

At the same time as he parried with his sword, S Gundam immediately retaliated with the beam rifle in his right hand, a beam of emerald green piercing through the dragon knight that had just finished firing.

At that moment, the beam net formed by three large dragon riders began to tighten inward, but Raven had already released the wire-controlled cannon on his head, which burst out from the gap in the beam net. Three emerald green beams turned one of the large dragon riders into wreckage, and a gap appeared in the tightening beam net. The S Gundam broke free from the gap.

"Your power is beyond the reach of even the Vlada family. Just who are you?!"

Kruze's voice carried a twisted thirst for knowledge.

Who I am is none of your business.

The mental perception framework of the divine will, which had absorbed too much negative emotion, emitted an ominous purple light in sync with Kruze's mental fluctuations.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't blame me for going to see it myself!"

Within the increasingly intense purple light of the divine will, an external consciousness forcefully invaded Raven's mind.

However, while Kruze was probing into Raven's heart, he also made Raven witness Kruze's dark past.

Abandoned as a failed mission, set fire to the Vlada Estate in despair, and went into hiding to fight in the war...

His madness and despair surged in all at once, but after experiencing the mental shock of the victims of Genesis, Raven's heart would not be easily broken.

"Get out of my house!"

Kruze's overly aggressive intrusion was met with resistance. The S-Gundam's biosensors emitted a faint light, and Kruze immediately felt a repulsive force that ejected him from Raven's inner world.

However, Kruze had already seen enough interesting things.

"Piloting a mobile suit into the starry sky? Unlike your complicated soul, it's truly a simple wish. But unfortunately, as you can see, foolish humanity will ultimately fail to reach the day you desire!"

"You're really high and mighty; you don't have that kind of decision-making power!"

"Of course I have that right; in fact, among all the people in this world, only I have that right!"

"Just because you suffered a tragedy, you want to drag everyone down into the same dark abyss as you? You cowardly coward who can't face reality!"

"Say what you will, but humanity will begin its extinction today!"

"Stop daydreaming. Humanity won't perish because of one madman. I've destroyed the nuclear warheads, and my comrades will soon destroy Genesis. You won't achieve any of your goals!"

"Then let me see just how far you can struggle."

Within the vortex of malice, Kruze merges his existence with the framework of psycho-sensory perception.

The light from the Psycho-Frame began to surge, and countless absorbed negative emotions became Kruze's power, dyeing the entire machine a chilling deep purple.
