Summary: The male protagonist is always wrong

He nodded to General Batlle.

The burly general with a big belly received the order and forcefully pulled the struggling Euphemia away.

Chapter 252 Lelouch 29

Lelouch looked at the falling [Avalon]. Because he was worried about Yin Li, his hands became more and more precise with high concentration.

[Gawain] quickly approached [Avalon], while Lelouch's mind raced, wondering who the inexplicable attack came from.

The distance was getting closer, and through Gawain's display screen, Lelouch saw the Britannian soldiers fleeing in all directions on the torn-out Avalon.

Where's Yin Li? Where is he?

Lelouch frowned, clenched the joystick in his hand, and manipulated [Gawain] to quickly switch perspectives around [Avalon], trying to find any trace of the boy.

Finally, Lelouch saw him.

After being hit, [Avalon] gradually tilted and it was no longer possible to stand firmly.

Yin Li was stumbling onto the deck, grabbing the edge of the hole created by the shell. The bloodstains on his skin had not yet healed. He was wearing broken silver handcuffs on his hands and a white prison uniform.

"Yin Li!" Lelouch controlled Gawain to move forward, opened the cockpit, and extended his hand towards him.

With just one leap, he could easily reach Gawain from this distance.

The night wind blew Zero's cloak and Yin Li's long black hair.

Yin Li also stretched out her hand towards him. If he took one more step, he would be able to catch Yin Li.

But [Avalon] suddenly shook violently again, and a stray bullet hit it.

Yin Li fell straight down like a bird with broken wings.

"Yin Li!"

Looking at the falling boy, Lelouch's mind went blank. He took off Zero's uniform and jumped forward, stretching out his hands to catch him.

The upgoing wind cut through the temples like a knife, making it impossible to open one's eyes. Lelouch stared at Yin Li's falling figure, gritting his teeth to resist the strong wind. He tried his best to reach out and grab Yin Li.

Lelouch jumped down without caring about anything, not even caring about Zero's true identity, he didn't even care about his own life.

Yin Li widened her eyes in disbelief, perhaps because the wind got into her eyes. Tears welled up in her red eyes, and her raised eyebrows seemed to be in shock and anger.

"Are you crazy!"

There was moisture on her face, and the rising tears seemed to hit Lelouch's face.

Lelouch was also a little surprised that he could still observe the boy's expression so carefully at this time.

"Yeah, I guess I'm really crazy."

Before his brain started to think, he had already taken off his uniform and jumped down following Yin Li.

This was a reckless act that even Lelouch himself would despise.

Lelouch stretched out his hand with force.

The surrounding scenery was all fleeting, and time seemed to slow down. Lelouch watched the boy get closer and closer, and finally grabbed his hand, bringing him into his arms. He said with relief, "I'm so glad you're okay."

Yin Li smiled and jokingly said without any tension, "Maybe we will die together."

Unlike their leisurely attitude, Kallen watched the two people falling from the sky and quickly manipulated [Red Lotus Style 2] to catch them.

But the distance seems not enough.

When Kallen was in despair, suddenly a red and gold light streaked through the air, and a jet-powered flying device with a blue flame tail was carried behind it, and an unfamiliar Knightmare caught the two of them.

Kallen breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally at ease. Before she could go forward to check on Zero's condition, she was dragged into the battlefield by the Britannian artillery fire. She had to put Zero aside temporarily and turned back to fight.

Lelouch, who was caught, was also a little surprised. He subconsciously protected Yin Li, and then quickly realized that this Knightmare was the group that had just attacked [Avalon].

"who are you?"

"Your identity has been exposed, and you still have the guts to question others like this?"

Qin Xiuyuan, who was driving the new Knightmare named [Qilin], had long been unhappy with Lelouch. Now that he had the opportunity to ridicule Lelouch, he naturally would not let it go.

Then, several Knightmares of the same model rushed into the battlefield with ammunition flying all over the sky, making the situation even more chaotic.

"Destroy the entire Britannian garrison!"

The commander gave the order in a domineering manner.

He spoke in Chinese, and Lelouch instantly understood the identity of that group of people.

The sound of machinery running was heard, and Qin Xiuyuan walked out of the cockpit and went forward to check on Yin Li. "Your Majesty, are you okay? If the Black Knights hadn't suddenly rushed out and disrupted the plan, the situation wouldn't be so dire."

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, and how could Lelouch not hear it?

"So when are you going to attack? Or are you still thinking that Britannia will surrender on its own?"

Lelouch was naturally very dissatisfied with this guy. Not only did he steal the credit from the Black Knights, but he also mocked him.

Yin Li looked helplessly at the two men who were arguing with each other, "Okay, uncle, please send Lelouch back to Gawain."

Hearing this, Lelouch turned his head and looked at him with sudden realization, "Uncle?"

Lelouch recognized this face, the guard who knelt in front of Yin Li at that time. He didn't expect that he was Yin Li's uncle.

He suddenly regretted what he had just said.

Lelouch extended his hand and said in that Zero tone, "I didn't expect it to be my uncle. I'm so sorry. I confused you with those politicians who used Yin Li as a pawn. My words just now were very offensive."

Looking at the flexible Lelouch, Qin Xiuyuan snorted with an ambiguous laugh, "I'm not your uncle, come up."

Under the joint efforts of an unknown federal team and the Black Knights, the Britannian army suffered repeated defeats. Then, under the command of Cornelia, the Britannian army withdrew to its headquarters.

Lelouch stopped at a high point in the [Gawain], "Retreat?"

In the confrontation between the Black Knights and Britannia, the Black Knights are often the losing side. Even if their plan succeeds, Zero will ask everyone to retreat, after all, Area 11 is in the hands of Britannia.

But this time Britannia actually retreated.

Although Lelouch found it strange, he could only put the matter aside for the time being. He got off [Gawain] and prepared to meet the commander of the Federation.

"Thank you for the assistance of the Black Knights. Nice to meet you. I am Lu Mingxiu, the leader of the Federation Resistance Movement."

A gentle young man in black combat uniform got off the Knightmare. He was about 25 years old. Like Zero, he was more like a behind-the-scenes operator than a pilot.

But Lelouch also remembered that he had just displayed outstanding talent in battle.

Lelouch tossed his cape and extended his hand for a brief handshake, "You're welcome. The Black Knights are friends of the weak."

"Zero!" Kallen jumped down from the [Red Lotus Second Style], "Are you okay?"

Zero waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, and then introduced the person next to him to the Black Knights, "The one who cooperated with us to rescue the Federation Emperor is the Federation's resistance organization."

Zero's words sounded as if the Black Knights had cooperated with them to rescue Yin Li. Zero was trying to make allies or befriend them, no matter what his purpose was.

For Yin Li's sake, Lu Mingxiu did not refute, but instead accepted this temporary ally and nodded to the members of the Black Knights with a smile.

"A resistance organization from the Federation? This is the first time I've seen resistance from another country."

Tamashiro Shinichiro yelled, "Hey, are they really rebels? Those Knightmares are not on the same level as us!"

Facing the noisy discussion of the Black Knights, Lu Mingxiu turned to look at Zero beside him and said, "Can I have a moment with you? I have something else I want to discuss with you."

"No problem." Zero nodded, then waved his hand, "Retreat."

"Hey, this is a great victory. This is the first time I see the Britannian army in such a mess." Shinichiro Tamashiro said with a grin as he climbed into the Knightmare's cockpit.

Shan Yao said hesitantly, "But this all depends on the resistance fighters in the Federation."

"What does it matter? We won anyway."

Seeing this, Lu Mingxiu also ordered everyone to retreat, "Then the entire Team Seven will withdraw to the ship!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, all members of the Seventh Squad saluted in unison, climbed into the cockpit swiftly, and flew into the sky in an orderly manner as if in a military exercise.

The Black Knights were startled by the sound of their feet clacking on the ground as they saluted. With such a disciplined team, coupled with the new high-tech Knightmares, they could no longer be called rebels.

Kallen vaguely realized the gap between the two teams. She gritted her teeth unwillingly. The contrast was too obvious. In comparison, the Black Knights were really just a mob.

Qin Xiu looked at the golden-red Knightmare gradually disappearing into the distance, bowed slightly, and extended his hand to Yin Li, "Let's go, Your Majesty."

Lu Mingxiu glanced at Zero beside him and suddenly had a bad idea. He also imitated Qin Xiuyuan's action and stretched out his hand to Yin Li, "Please let me escort you."

Lelouch's eyebrows twitched as he looked at the two people who simultaneously extended their hands to Yin Li. He felt strange and jealous, and he also took the opportunity to invite them, "Then why don't you ride with me? [Gawain] can take two people."

Yin Li looked left and right, looking at the three people who kept extending their hands. They seemed to be saying, "I won't take my hands back until you agree."

Yin Li felt a little confused when watching this scene. They were all childish guys.

He tapped his cheek and suggested, "How about this? Give me your uncle's [Qilin]. I haven't driven a newer [Qilin] yet. And your uncle and Zero will ride in [Gawain]."

"Look, is this okay?"

Yin Li glanced at Qin Xiuyuan and Lelouch.

Qin Xiuyuan knew Lelouch's identity, so this arrangement was the most appropriate.

Qin Xiuyuan looked at Zero with some dissatisfaction, but also agreed.

Lelouch knew that this was a good opportunity to conquer Yin Li's family, so he agreed.

Only Lu Mingxiu was not mentioned at all. He was silent for a while, glanced at Lelouch beside him, and then showed a gentle smile, "Well, then, let's do this. Drive [Gawain] and come with me, Zero."

Chapter 253 Lelouch 30

Several people followed Lu Mingxiu to the underwater submarine base.

Lu Mingxiu invited Zero to his office for a private talk, and Zero gladly accepted.

Yin Li watched the two men leave. He followed the logistics personnel to treat his wound first, and then returned to the room in the submarine to take a shower.

The rooms inside the submarine are not big, but they are fully equipped with all kinds of facilities.

The bathtub in the bathroom was also very comfortable, and Yin Li took a bath peacefully.

A lot had happened in the past few days, and after spending another day in Britannia's prison, even he felt a little tired.

Yin Li sank the lower half of his face into the water.
