Gundam EXARE

"LOGOS uses various means to control its members. Each of them controls the other's lifeline, creating a mutually beneficial relationship where everyone prospers and suffers together."

Uzumiya wanted to pretend to join, but LOGOS was no fool.

At that time, Uzumi was still young and could not accept LOGOS's supervision that would harm Orb's interests.

So he rejected LOGOS.

"I've spent so many years and haven't found much. I can even say that it was only because of LOGOS's stupidity that I was able to find some clues."

Victory does not come from becoming strong yourself, but from waiting for others to fall.

It sounds ridiculous, but it's true.

Monsters like LOGOS who think they are gods always look down on others with their bodies that are no different from ordinary people.

Their arrogance will expose them. They have done the most shameless things you can imagine, and even things you can't imagine.

In 68, Thomas Allen, a CIA agent who had exposed corruption within the Atlantic Federal Government, committed suicide by shooting himself eight times in the back. In 62, John Stewart, a large-scale human trafficking criminal, suddenly hanged himself in prison.

These are just two examples.

"The events that caused such a stir back then ended abruptly with the deaths of the individuals involved. Nothing more was said about them. The only thing that remains certain is that LOGOS has long since established itself in the heart of the country, secretly profiting for itself."

How powerful is a country?

It allows you to see only what it wants you to see and hear only what it wants you to hear.

"It sounds like the Atlantic Federation is already in critical condition."

Rei said with a hint of sarcasm.

"But there was also a tradition of scraping bones to heal wounds in ancient times. I just don't know if anyone wants to do that now."

Currently? There's no sign of that happening.

This situation can be compared to a turtle retracting itself into its hard shell, and the Atlantic Federation is the hardest shell.

"In which countries is LOGOS hidden?"

Rei asked, and according to Uzumi, LOGOS must have left a way out for itself everywhere. Since it came to find Orb, it may have been to PLANT, the East Asian Republic, the Oceania Union, the United States of South America, and even various small countries.

How do you fix an organization that has been around for who knows how long?

Uzumi could only shake his head at Rei's question.

"I don't know the details either."

Uzmi was still young at that time and was too stubborn to be easily broken.

If he could go back in time, he would probably choose to join in.

Even if it would harm Orb's interests, he should look at who and what are the people who are constantly harming the interests of people all over the world.

Now that things have come to this, there is no point in thinking about it.

The important thing now is that Uzumi changed the subject to something more practical.

"Everyone, I have already ordered someone to prepare new identities for you. Once you arrive in Heliopolis, you can start your lives anew."

Orb? There's no Orb anymore, it's long gone.

PLANT couldn't even exist independently from Earth, so no one thought Heliopolis could be the capital of Orb, right?

Uzmi had already ordered the provisional government in Heliopolis to surrender, whether it was the Atlantic Federation, the Eurasian Federation, or the East Asian Republic, it all had to surrender.

As for him, Uzumi?

He was just an exile driven out by a coup, and he survived because someone still needed him.

In this era, there are some countries that need people like Uzmi who are persecuted by the Atlantic Federation.

Like humanitarian

Like a color revolution

Like political persecution

Do you think that only the Atlantic Federation would use this flag?

Uzumi plans to become this clown himself.

He had said before that LOGOS was hiding in some countries, and it was obvious that there was LOGOS in the Atlantic Federation.

If everything is calm, they can still be free.

But when the country begins to waver, those who try to find a way out will be exposed.

It sounds like it's going to drag the whole world into the war and make the fire burn even more fiercely.

But this world may have reached a stage where it must be destroyed before it can be rebuilt.

How history will be evaluated in the future is a matter of history. Those of us living in the present can only follow our hearts and work hard.

The conversation ended here for now, and everyone seemed a little confused about what Uzumi said.

But if you think about it carefully, Orb was basically destroyed and the soldiers lost their reason to fight.

Are you going to retaliate against the Atlantic Federation and fight to the death with it and lose your life?

At this moment, Ray felt the gazes, and he found that Mariu, Cagalli, Kira, and many others were looking at him.

Why are you looking at me?

Chapter 113 The Meaning of Battle

"What are you all looking at me for?"

Lei Yi is a outspoken person. When he came to his senses, he found that many people were looking at him, which reminded him of his student days.

What happened? He didn't skip classes for two days and then come back to school and get yelled at by the teacher in front of all the students.

He did a lot of stupid things back then. It turns out he was young once, but he almost forgot it.

While he was distracted, Mariu subconsciously turned her gaze towards him and gave the reason:

"Because you always seem to have an idea."

This was the first time the two had a formal chat since they last parted in Orb.

Whether it was at the Alaska base or when defending Orb, the two of them actually only had serious communication on the battlefield.

After everyone was safe, they thought about it again and realized that something was wrong. Where did that MS with an exaggerated name come from?

"After all, you are a man full of mysteries."

This was the first time in Malu's life that she used the word mysterious to describe a man, and Ray obviously enjoyed it.

"Hum~"

No one hates being praised, not even Rei.

He straightened his chest and put his hands on his hips, making it look like he was making his debut in a competition.

"It turns out that I have become everyone's backbone without realizing it."

Rei hadn't expected it to turn out like this, and he hadn't actually done anything about it?

Wait, there are so many things to do, such as breaking out of the universe and landing on the earth, supporting Baku in the desert, the decisive battle of the Island of Dawn in the G series, airborne landing at the Alaska base, and the defense of Orb.

There are even two cases of suspected resurrection from the dead. Please call me the immortal Rei.

Otherwise, Rhodes of Phoenix

This should have been a serious scene, but all the atmosphere was lost in the picture of someone's nose almost sticking up in the air.

Isn't that good? If everyone always had a gloomy face, it wouldn't be long before they would put pressure on each other and start fighting among themselves.

"Instead of being so smug, why don't you come up with some wise ideas?"

Cagalli doesn't indulge Rei. After hearing her urging, Rei came back to his senses. What should he do next?

"It wouldn't be bad to just retire and start a new life, right? Life is short, so if you have the chance to leave, you should grab it."

Ray had seen many recruits who looked exactly like him, their enthusiasm vanishing once they actually walked around the battlefield.

Is driving a mobile suit a big deal? Being able to drive it vividly in training is no big deal.

When you actually go to the battlefield and engage in a firefight with the enemy, experience the pressure of life and death, and find that the comrades you were chatting and laughing with before the attack are killed and mutilated, you will no longer want to drive a MS.

Driving an MS is essentially no different from driving a tank into the battlefield; both are about fighting for your life.

That's why Rei hopes that soldiers can die gloriously, and that life and death should not be filled with emptiness and sadness.

"But if you don't plan to leave, I can tell you about the current situation of PLANT."

In a nutshell, an extreme racist came to power and began to spread his extreme ideas.

Does he really think this way, or is he using this kind of thinking to manipulate people?

God knows, but one thing is certain: extremism will lead to greater tragedy.

In this war, countless soldiers took to the battlefield with the Blue Cosmos ideology, determined to wipe out the PLANTs.

It is not known how many ZAFT soldiers believe Patrick Sala's words and want to eliminate the backward old-era species.

Compared to destroying LOGOS, there are more important things at this time.

"Justice has an anti-neutron jammer installed, and PLANT is now relaunching nuclear technology. I don't know how much progress they've made in this technology, and I don't know whether Patrick Sala's remarks are serious or just slogans."

Rey has seen the power of Blue Cosmos, and he doesn't want to see another extreme racist come to power.

"Many people have predicted for many years that human wars will lead to human extinction, and I think that day is not far away."

You say I'm alarmist?

First came the nuclear missile, then the neutron jammer. What's next? A super cannon that could destroy the Earth?

"I don't want to take sides between the Earth Union and PLANT, nor will I stand by and watch from a neutral perspective."

It's easy to choose which side you're on, just be a loyal soldier, carry out your mission, fight and kill.

But he hated extremists like Patrick Sala, and he hated LOGOS hiding behind the United Front even more.

Do we still have to choose sides after knowing so much? Do we have to choose between two stinking toilets?

"The world has never been peaceful. There have been conflicts and wars from time to time."

No matter which world it is, it is only to maintain overall peace, and mankind has never achieved true unification.

"When I was a child, I hoped that a hero would fall from the sky and defeat all those who insisted on fighting. He would end the conflict and bring peace to the world. And now I want to do that."

Two toilets? Never mind.

"I want to hang all those on both sides who insist on fighting at the muzzles of beam rifles. I want to block those who seek to profit from this war at the nozzles of beam swords. I want to stuff all those who crave chaos and conflict and hinder peace into the thrusters of justice."

Why is the toilet so disgusting? Because you never clean it!

"I want to give those two people who are fighting each other a slap each before separating them."

It wasn't that simple, and Rey knew it, but he could tell a simple allegory:

"One monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, three monks have no water to eat. Everyone wants others to do it, but in the end no one does it."

When people face difficulties, they will definitely think of giving up.

"The immense power of LOGOS exists for this very reason. If everyone just thinks they can't resist anyway, then they will be successful in disciplining us."

Rei didn't know if he was right or not, but continued to express his opinion:

"The Atlantic Federation is just a large-scale testing ground, Malu. When you were in the Atlantic Federation, could you have said loudly that you didn't discriminate against the Adjusters? How many people did you see standing up for the Adjusters?"

He knew that few of the Archangel's crew had any prejudice against the Adjusters, which was why it was so tragic.

If people like them were the majority, could Blue Cosmos be so arrogant?

At this time, Malu gave a helpless answer:

"Even if everyone objects in their hearts, they dare not speak out. No one wants to provoke a bunch of crazy people."

You support the adjusters, you are a spiritual adjuster, the adjusters, you deserve to be killed!

This is the idea of ​​Blue Cosmos, and Ray sees this incident as an example of LOGOS disciplining the world.

"As long as they create public opinion through the media, people will start fighting among themselves. They don't even need to get involved to eliminate dissidents and seek benefits. What's more, these people control more than just the media."

What Rey is about to say now sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory:

"As long as we promote ideological trends through literary and artistic works and then gradually amend laws, people will subtly change their perception of the world. The means of color revolutions are definitely not limited to destroying enemy countries."
