Great, we're doomed now!

The Martian Sphere has a highly developed industry. Although its core technology (Yahab Reactor) has been blocked by Earth for a long time, cats have their ways and dogs have theirs. Because it is difficult to manufacture new reactors, they are very good at collecting scrapped mobile suits, cracking their systems, and repairing and modifying them.

This technology can even be used on M·A.

—This actually shows that the Martian sphere is hostile to Earth.

As colonies, they were already being exploited, and now that conflicts have broken out between countries around the world, the battlefields are being set up on their homelands... Who can stand that?!

Every major city in the Martian sphere, regardless of which superpower it belongs to, is making various attempts to circumvent technological limitations and secretly accumulating power.

If M·A hadn't rebelled first, the later stages of the Calamity War might have turned into a conflict between the two human civilizations of Mars and Earth...

Ironically, the force originally intended to deal with Earth ended up successfully restraining M·A's power after the AI ​​rebellion, thus relieving some of the pressure on Earth.

Of course, as the killing machines indiscriminately slaughtered the city, the Martian inhabitants realized who their real enemy was. They no longer cared about the unpleasant events that occurred in the early stages of the Calamity War and were extremely welcoming of the arrival of the vanguard legion.

—People on Earth may not really be human, but M·A definitely isn't even human!

"Sir, you have been piloting for more than nine hours. Please return to the ship. We can handle the remaining cleanup."

"..."

Upon hearing the sound of the radio waves being switched, Falk looked at the Gundam [Momo] and [Astaroth] beside him on the screen, and for a moment he was in a daze and did not reply immediately.

Only after the other party spoke again did Falk shut down the fire control system and maneuver [Gamakie] away from the battlefield.

【Astaroth】is one of the Gundam frames carried by the Vanguard Legion. The pilot was also an elite personally selected by Ye Shou, who underwent a perfect Alaya-vijnana surgery. There is nothing special to explain.

However, the [Momo] was a Gundam produced on Mars. The original reserve pilot was killed in an accident, so an elite pilot was selected locally and risked undergoing the unsafe Alaya consciousness surgery.

...It failed.

Mars lacked both the necessary technology and relevant experience, and the pilot was an adult, so this was not an unexpected outcome.

However, this woman named "Xin Hui Farid" voluntarily underwent a transformation into a living CPU to control the Gundam, and from then on, she could only survive in a sealed cabin.

Falk had considered asking her why she would go to such lengths, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to say it.

He had heard countless reasons to keep fighting, and Xin Hui's answer didn't surprise him... but Falk still couldn't let it go.

Because he began to realize a fact that many people avoided:

All of this is the result of humanity's own actions!

Who has implemented discriminatory policies against Mars?

Who started the war for colonies?

Who created M·A and programmed it with the most brutal killing orders?

Perhaps these are the sins of some politicians, but in reality, it is all of humanity that bears the consequences. From the perspective of the Martian inhabitants, however, it is a completely undeserved disaster.

Even so, there will still be people who step forward!

She sacrificed her body and soul to the demon, not to atone for the mistakes of politicians, but for the future of children!

After the war ends, the greatest glory will still belong to the Earth… Falk feels deeply apologetic about this.

Furthermore, he decided that after quelling the M·A rebellion, he would dedicate the rest of his life to fighting for the freedom and liberation of Mars!

The human alliance on Earth won't easily allow Mars to become independent, will they? Perhaps there will be dissenting voices even within the Legion, but Falk will no longer waver.

Perhaps this was the original intention of that person in creating the "Gundam Manual":

The Legion is not allowed to participate in the suppression of ordinary people (Mars), otherwise, once the Legion's power intervenes, Martian independence will have no chance of success.

—That's what Falk thought.

Beep~ Beep~ Beep~

The beeping sounds continued. Falk, who had just come out of the cockpit, took off his helmet, adjusted the channel of his headset, and the confusion in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a resolute look on this rock-solid and reliable man.

"Is it tomorrow?"

Falk looked up and saw that the Martian sky, always covered with a layer of dust, was a pale blue, and even in the daytime, the brilliant aurora borealis stretched and shimmered, filling the entire field of vision as if it were going to cover the end of the world.

—The scene when M·A went all out was truly like the end of the world!

Tomorrow, the main force of the legion, led by [Bayeri], will break through Phobos's defenses and parachute onto the surface of Mars!

"Lord Kuse... Finally... finally this day has come!"

Chapter 187 The Demon King with "666"

"It's here! It's here! I can feel it!"

Birdwin, standing on the bridge, suddenly shouted, startling everyone.

He looked agitated, his eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were clenched, as if he had been bitten by something.

"What's gotten into you all of a sudden...?"

"That lord has arrived! You can sense it, can't you?"

Birdwin grinned and said, "Could it be that I'm the only one who has been inspired?"

"It is possible... but your reaction is too exaggerated." A Gundam pilot wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Birdwin scoffed, "What do you know? During my time on Mars, I've barely felt that lord's attention. I've endured it for a long time... Now I can finally fight alongside him again!"

The spiritual perception of the Alaya consciousness varies from person to person. Most pilots can sense the presence of others within a few kilometers, while a few can sense the presence of others across a city.

However, there are two special cases here. One is on the battlefield, where the more pilots gather, the more their mental resonance will be amplified, and it can cover the entire battlefield even on a cosmic scale.

Another advantage is that all pilots can sense Ye Shou's presence from a distance... Of course, this also has its limits; at least it's impossible to cross different planets. Neither side possesses mental strength strong enough to reach that level.

Therefore, although these pilots on Mars possess the Alaya-vijnana (storehouse consciousness) and the mark of the Holy Grail, they have been in a state of "silence" until just now when they were "activated."

The effect was immediate. Birdwin and his companions could clearly feel a stronger spiritual resonance between them, and they could communicate their feelings without words. At the same time, they also felt a sense of security, like being bathed in sunlight.

All these changes signify the arrival of that great one—Kuse Yoru!

"We already received confirmation of their location via communication, and this was part of the plan. Is there any need to be so agitated?"

"You can't understand it. To me, it's like a fish that's about to die of thirst being thrown into a river."

"...It's because of your attitude that that person threw you to Mars."

The more rational companion shook his head: he still preferred to act with Falk.

While Birdwin is quite good, his occasional eccentric behavior is quite baffling.

"Alright, proceed with the original plan and begin the feint attack on Phobos!"

"Roger that!"

"understand!"

The order was relayed from the bridge to every department and also relayed to other warships via radio waves, and the Martian resistance's mixed fleet immediately began operations.

The difficulty of conquering Mars is far greater than that of reclaiming the Moon!

Because the Moon Recapture Operation was a surprise attack and the first collective appearance of the Gundam Legion, it took M·A by surprise in many ways, causing the Killing AI, which lacked adaptability, to suffer heavy losses.

But now, M·A is no longer unfamiliar with the Gundam Corps, and the long route between Earth and Mars is enough to expose all of humanity's strategic intentions, making a surprise attack a pipe dream.

M·A was even waiting for Ye Shou to finish his work!

Therefore, it is wishful thinking to think that the M·A army can be defeated in one battle, just like it was on the moon. The human side should be thinking about how to break through the blockade of Phobos, Deimos, and the Kabbalah battleship "Su".

Let's deal with these swords of Damocles first, then we can think about how to clean up the M·A on the Martian surface!

Of course, Ye Shou wouldn't just lead his fleet headlong into the fray. He had already made arrangements with the Martian side in advance. The Martian resistance would launch feint attacks on both the surface and in space to relieve pressure on Ye Shou's expeditionary fleet.

Meanwhile, Birdwin competed for the position and successfully led his subordinates into the mixed fleet, taking the initiative to welcome Ye Shou's arrival.

boom!

boom!

boom!

—A salute of steel and fire!

The combined fleet's salvo poured down like a torrential rain, the scorching beams and heavy torrents of bullets sweeping over the densely packed Bruman army, heading straight for Phobos' surface!

However, shortly after the hit, dozens of dazzling spots of light suddenly appeared on the surface of the satellite—

hum! ! !

Thick defensive lasers shot out from the crater and the crater, weaving into a dense interception net in the air, intercepting the first wave of human attacks!

Almost simultaneously, a massive M·A army suddenly surged out from behind Phobos!

Hammons, Nememia, Harald, Annel... all sorts of machines accelerated at full speed, tracing perfect arcs under the influence of gravity, sweeping in like a swarm of locusts. They had perfectly concealed their tracks by using the shadows of the satellites and electromagnetic interference, only now revealing their ferocious fangs.

"These guys are really working hard, they've completely fortified the satellite!" Birdwin roared in [Simone], "All Gundams, sortie!"

Phobos and Deimos are not celestial bodies like the Moon; they are more like asteroids captured by gravity, with a maximum length and width of only twenty or thirty kilometers.

However, M·A was able to transform it into an impregnable fortress using steel!

"First to third squads, intercept on the left flank; fourth squad, follow me and break through from the front!" Birdwin fired first with his lance, the handle spinning like a revolver. Six projectiles made of black alloy were fired in a second, each one a new type of electromagnetic cannon that had already been fully charged—[Dynsniv].

Tearing through the armor of a Harar, the ion stream exploded into dazzling sparks in the vacuum.

At that moment, the expeditionary fleet, located hundreds of kilometers away, suddenly accelerated its advance and quickly joined the battle at Ya, with more than three hundred main guns of various sizes firing in unison on the outer perimeter!

The specially designed solid projectile traced a straight trajectory, bypassing the main battlefield and heading straight for the surface facilities on Phobos.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions erupted over the fortress, laser turrets twisted and deformed in the flames, and gaps appeared in the interception network in an instant!

"Now's the time!" Birdwin seized the opportunity. "Fifth Squad, assault that breach! [Dainsneft], prepare to destroy the entire M.A. base!"

Many warships in the mixed fleet not only opened their main guns but also opened their external armor, releasing mobile suits carrying spikes. These mobile suits were fixed to the hulls and connected to long, thick cables, moving alongside the warships like remoras attached to a whale.

The Martian inhabitants are incredibly skilled at modification. Since they didn't have time to add more cannons to their warships, they simply used their badly damaged mobile suits as gun mounts. Because they directly draw energy from the warship's reactor via cables, their reloading speed and power are just as good!

This wave of attacks, like a metal storm, ignited a series of fires in M·A's ranks, forcefully clearing a path.

But this battle is not so simple; an even greater crisis has already arrived:

Countless points of light suddenly appeared in the direction of Deimos, and the second wave of the M·A Legion surged in like a tide, heading straight for the mixed fleet!

However, the expeditionary force had already officially entered the battlefield. The Demon God Legion was released from the Steel Ship, its momentum overwhelming, and wherever it went, large or small, M·A was utterly destroyed.

"Lord Ye Shou!" A hurried call came through the communication channel.
