Gundam EXARE

"But this is only a reprieve from your death!"

Just as Gates said in the retreating aircraft, the Archangel's beam disruption curtain is not infinite. Moreover, the three-ship alliance is already moving forward, and they will inevitably leave the disruption curtain. It doesn't matter if they die early or late.

However, this speculation is a bit naive. If Mariu really had only this much weight, the Archangel would have sunk before reaching the Alaskan base.

All the missiles fired were just a trick to gain space, and the three-ship alliance that was originally in a tight formation suddenly broke up.

The Archangel and Kusanagi separated on both sides, opened the hull, and revealed the Lohangrin hidden inside.

Everyone knows that the beam disruption curtain isolates the beam.

It's like everyone thinks rubber is insulating, but this kind of insulation has a limit.

Just because an object has a high melting point does not mean it will not melt.

The translucent haziness of the beam disruption curtains hindered observation. Although they could hinder mobile suit-level rifles, it was another matter when it came to positron cannons.

"Lohengrin—"

"emission!"

Mariu and Cagalli, the two captains, gave orders in unison.

This time, the positron cannon appeared much more chaotic than usual, with a large number of jumping particles and light spots entangled around the artillery fire, and they consumed all the disturbance curtains along the way.

Defense has its limits after all, and the incredibly powerful positron cannon burst out from the beam disruption curtain.

"avoid!"

"That's too late!"

A Nazca-class and a Lorasia-class warship were directly hit by the positron cannon, and their hard armor was melted and penetrated, causing the entire warship to sink in the explosion.

As a result, ZAFT's firepower was weakened.

The three-ship alliance advanced at full speed, rushing out of the beam disruption curtain and heading straight for Genesis.

The mobile suit team, which had already returned to the ship, opened fire to stop the enemies chasing from the side and rear.

Strike stood on the Archangel, folding the beam rifle into the side of his thigh and stabilizing the large electromagnetic cannon with both hands.

"I forgot the Archangel's combat is always so extreme!"

Mu aimed and fired accurately, and the shell pierced through a machine gun.

Although it was a bit inappropriate to say this now, Mu was very happy that he could fight with the Archangel again.

Every army would claim to be an army of justice, but he really didn't think the Atlantic Federation could be called just.

Just as Rey said, let's go save the world.

Another electromagnetic cannon shot smashed the Gates in front, and another Gates also fell backwards in the explosion.

Standing on the hull of the Eternal, Yanhong adjusted the two electromagnetic cannons of the IWSP. Bartfield knew that he did not have the energy to do more.

"I'm sorry, but I can't show mercy right now."

The three-ship alliance was advancing at full speed, and in this situation, it was difficult for the mobile suits to even lock onto the enemy.

So when Baltfeld fired at the ZAFT troops trying to intercept him, he could only aim for the torso, which was the easiest to hit.

Finally, the three-ship alliance crossed the first ZAFT defense line deployed near Yakin Duwei, and their target was Genesis, which still seemed far away.

The Eternal's radar, which was enhanced with a communication antenna, was the first to show two familiar logos.

justice

Kira, who made a breakthrough using the Meteor System and Hyperion, defeated Canard. After using force to eliminate some of the opponent's madness, he continued to advance towards Genesis.

Justice is approaching Genesis even faster than the Three Ships Alliance, so he is bound to come into face-to-face conflict with the mobile suits guarding Genesis.

It was the freedom stationed here that stopped justice, and all the Earth troops that advanced here were shot down by freedom without a single one left.

But the situation is different. Justice is not an opponent that can be killed casually. After all, Kira, who drives Justice, is no longer a weak student after experiencing many battles. He has already defeated more than one ace pilot.

Two Gundams with different symbolic meanings clashed here. They fought fiercely, and the intersecting beams of light were followed by closer slashes.

Justice caught the returning beam boomerang in his right hand, but Freedom dodged its forward vertical strike by retracting its wings and flipping sideways.

Aslan pulled the body and turned around, and out of the corner of his eye he saw the three warships moving at high speed.

"Eternal, Lux?"

Liberty tried to intervene, but Justice stopped Liberty with a volley of rifle and sonic cannon fire.

Just now it was freedom that was blocking justice, but now it is justice that is blocking freedom. The positions change so quickly.

Kira knew that it would be difficult for him to break through, but now that his companions had arrived, he decided to leave the responsibility to them.

"Kira, do you know what you are doing?!"

Aslan saw through one fact on this crazy battlefield, that is, the Earth Army will do its best to destroy Genesis.

Genesis is the lifeline of PLANT, but once it is used, there is no turning back.

Not to mention turning around, even braking is difficult on this road.

Both ZAFT and the Earth Army are madly moving down the wrong path. They will eventually collide and one of them will be destroyed.

Everyone was tied to the car and had no power to choose.

Kira understood the situation perfectly.

"I know, that's why I'm here to fight you."

This time it was not a helpless decision, but a decision I made myself.

"Aslan, I know what the situation is. We can't let it get any worse!"

"But what you're doing is just making enemies everywhere!"

Justice shook off Liberty's plasma and electromagnetic cannons, and it fired back, but Liberty easily dodged them.

"Neither the Earth Army nor ZAFT can stop now. This is no longer a question of winning or losing the war. Even if ZAFT abandons Genesis, what will happen? Will the Earth Army stop the attack immediately?"

Aslan was absolutely right. The Atlantic Federation was originally intended to destroy PLANT, and Genesis undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

But if Genesis is not used, it will be PLANT's turn to be destroyed. In this situation, there is no way to make peace.

ZAFT cannot lose Genesis. Once it loses Genesis, the Earth Army will attack directly.

In ZAFT's view, the three-ship alliance was simply taking sides.

"If the Earth Army is determined to destroy PLANT—"

Kira was no longer a wavering child. His mind was completely focused, and the seed in his brain exploded and spread everywhere.

"We will destroy the Earth Army!"

If both sides are assholes, I will slap them both equally.

Chapter 157: Multiple Attacks

The figure was not ghostly, and could even be said to be swaggering and arrogant.

But you just can't do anything about it. The beam of light that counterattacks directly hits the enemy's cockpit, and then the beam changes angle and bounces back, hitting the friendly aircraft accurately.

Dawn first swept the spear sword in his right hand horizontally, cutting Gates' left arm from the side along with the attack shield that activated the beam claw, and then chopped Gates vertically with the beam sword in his left hand, splitting Gates from top to bottom.

When the three-machine Gates activated the waist beam hook in three directions, the three guided turrets penetrated different enemies at different positions.

There were also four guided turrets emitting beams at the same time, and the continuous output of radiation converged into a death trap within a second. The five-man team composed of Xigu and Jin En collided with the beams during the assault and took the initiative to cut themselves into several pieces.

The four guided turrets that completed the tripwire mission and the other three guided turrets returned to the back of Dawn at the same time. Dawn's two consecutive kicks, first a whip kick and then a side kick, destroyed Jin'en's balance, and the beam chasing from the side shot down Jin'en.

The Earth Army followed Dawn, a somewhat disorganized force.

There are assault daggers, duel daggers, 105 daggers, storm daggers, and even two long swords.

This MS unit is breaking through ZAFT's defenses with Dawn as its center, and they are seizing the opportunity after Dawn's ravages to attack.

The elusive guided turret caused great damage in a very short time. Who could have imagined that one MS could kill eleven MSs in ten seconds?

On average, one machine can be killed in less than one second, but in reality, it takes five seconds to move out of ten seconds, four seconds to deploy, and then eight machines can be destroyed in less than two seconds.

Dawn is as powerful as a ghost. Even if the ZAFT army does not mention the Dawn's guided turret, they can still see it rushing towards your comrades with a beam of light and slashing at them.

When you want to shoot it down with live ammunition, the guided turret that comes out of nowhere will blast your cockpit with a beam.

The interwoven emerald light and reflected gold struck fear into the hearts of the ZAFT army, and the resulting hesitation and indecision cost them their lives.

To ZAFT, Dawn is a scourge, but to the Earth Army, it is the complete opposite: the most terrifying enemy is also the most reliable ally.

The front line that the Earth Army had previously found difficult to advance on can no longer be described as taking a big step forward, it is simply rushing forward.

Wherever the induction turret flies, it leaves only the light of death. The enemy's hesitation will inevitably lead to a decrease in combat effectiveness.

After the enhanced versions of the Strike Dagger, such as the 105 Dagger, were deployed one after another, the performance of the Earth Army's MS became on par with that of ZAFT's MS, and the outcome was determined by tactics and strength.

At this time, the Earth Army followed the pace of dawn to attack and break through, shooting down the enemy who began to fear.

The flying beams and live ammunition were woven together as a whole. The 105 Daggers equipped with guns used the anti-ship Vulcan cannons on their right shoulders and the Vulcan cannons on their heads to shoot down all the incoming missiles.

Following closely behind, the Storm Dagger, Duel Dagger and Longsword simultaneously opened their shoulder missile bays and released all the missiles inside, thus creating a wave of missile rain that surpassed the battleship.

As ZAFT's Nazca-class intercepted the missiles with anti-aircraft Vulcans, several beams fell on the battleship.

Several aircraft equipped with 105 short swords broke through to the dangerous distance. They fired continuously with rifles, some of which hit the hull and some hit the gun barrel.

Three of the 105 Daggers landed on the Nazca-class, and it drew its beam sword with its left hand and stabbed it into the wound it had created.

This was not the end yet. The dagger of the Sword Suit 105 rushed down and slashed the anti-ship sword, cutting the bridge of the Nazca class in half.

The beam that penetrated the interior of the Nazca-class ship exploded, and lethal particles expanded within the ship.

The beam sword that pierced into the interior of the Nazca-class battleship cut deep scars one after another, completely destroying the battleship.

The Earth Army has already advanced to a distance that is extremely disadvantageous for the warships. Look at the Fire God's cannon-mounted 105 Dagger and the Storm Dagger with a combined gun barrel. The firepower that is designed specifically for anti-ships and fortresses cannot miss at such a distance.

Red and white beams, yellow beams, and a large amount of anti-ship cannonballs hit two Loracia-class ships and sank them.

The Dawn's guided turret returned to its back to recharge, and Ray saw the 105 Daggers detach from the sinking battleship without him having to take any action.

Since the pilots were assigned to a small number of high-performance MS, they naturally had the strength to match.

"Now let me take advantage of you."

Rey has communicated with the Earth Army. Everyone wants to attack Genesis's companions. Win-win cooperation is definitely much better than conflict and internal consumption.

Doing so can first improve the efficiency of the attack and secondly save energy.

The power source of Dawn uses Orb's new battery, and the Yata Mirror Armor does not need to consume electricity all the time like the PS Armor, so in theory it has a longer activity time than the G series.

But Dawn has a power-consuming system called the Dragoon System. Although Rey thinks he can kill all the way to Genesis, how much power will he have left by then?

To this end, he chose to cooperate with part of the Earth Army and borrow the power of the Earth Army to break through ZAFT's defense line.

Thanks to the assistance of the Earth Army, Dawn no longer needs to release floaters to fight dozens or hundreds of enemy planes alone.

To put it bluntly, Rey is creating a sense of companionship with the Earth Army in order to better betray them later. If the Earth Army intends to take advantage of the situation to massacre the Adjusters after stopping Genesis, he can catch the Earth Army off guard from within.

To Rey, the Earth Army and ZAFT, who are either half crazy or completely crazy, cannot be considered companions.

The battle line advanced significantly, and part of the Earth Army's MS forces, led by the Archangel and a Nelson-class mobile suit, passed through the flames of the explosion and headed towards the Genesis, which had not yet been launched.

Bakilulu looked forward from the bridge and saw flickering blue lights, which were the remaining tail flames of the MS. She had a strange feeling at this moment.

Was it because both the Archangel and this Nelson-class ship had participated in the Battle of Mendel? Or was it because they were uncomfortable with the sudden change in the relationship between the enemy and us?

All of this was wrong. If Ray hadn't come to the rescue, ZAFT's decapitation force, led by the Covenant, would have destroyed the remaining Archangel and Nelson-class ships.

But now they survived, and Bakilulu agreed to cooperate after a phone call with Rey without any greetings, and the soldiers also accepted the order and temporarily regarded the Dawn as friendly forces.

Do you know what’s so special about this?

Especially since Baki Lulu has temporarily become the commander of the broken fleet and MS team, the soldiers obey her orders.

Baki Lulu does not have a strong desire for power. She just feels that if the commander is replaced by someone else, the other party will most likely reject Rey's proposal.

After all, Dawn was the machine that slapped the Atlantic Federation in the Orb attack and defense, the machine that fought stubbornly in Mendel, and the machine that prevented the nuclear missiles from bombing PLANT.

There is a big problem within the Atlantic Federation. Anyone with normal thinking can see how extreme this attitude of either treating others as friends or enemies is.

Baki Lulu was thinking that it was her turn to be in power for a short time, and it was a good thing that she was in power.

If the superiors insist on doing what they want, should the soldiers loyally carry out such stupid orders?
