Gundam EXARE

Come to think of it, it is impossible for the people from ZAFT to just come here for a stroll and then go back. So, was it the Aegis that was taken away or the Assault?

Let’s not worry about that for now. Jin En, holding a heavy artillery, was approaching Jin Yiduan cautiously.

Rey glanced at the radar. There were three Jinns here, each equipped with heavy anti-ship firepower. Their target was naturally the Earth Army's new battleship Archangel.

In fact, he should not appear in the Golden Heretic, because the Golden Heretic's database directly displays the information of the Aegis Assault and the Archangel, which means that Orb is also stealing the data of the Earth Union. Is it planning to eat both ends between PLANT and the Earth Union or is it simply alerting the Earth Union?

Whatever Orb intended, it certainly did not want the heresy to be discovered.

But Rey still drove out in the Golden Heretic because the colony satellite was shaking and this fragile little world could not withstand further destruction.

And it was ZAFT's MS that were firing recklessly in the colony satellite.

"enough!"

Rey pulled the trigger, and the Vulcan cannon installed on the head of the Golden Heretic fired at the heavy artillery Jin En. A large number of bullets poured over but failed to cause any damage.

To put it bluntly, it was just a close-in defense cannon, and Jin En, who kept a distance from Jin Heretic, easily avoided it.

"Idiot, there's no way you'll hit the target from that distance!"

The pilot of this King's ship is no rookie; he is nicknamed Dusk Bullet and is one of ZAFT's ace pilots.

But Rey didn't know about this, he only knew that the other party was an experienced driver.

Anyone could see at a glance that the Gold Heretic was poorly armed. Unprepared for combat, it only had two beam sabers fixed on its back and a Vulcan cannon on its head.

That's why Jin En kept his distance. Only a fool would engage in a melee battle with Jin Heretic.

Unfortunately, Rey did it on purpose; he fired the Vulcan cannon as a feint.

"I didn't intend to hit it."

Let the experienced driver continue to use his long-range attack strategy. The heavy artillery Jin En will not get close. If he doesn't get close, it means he will not be able to rescue his companions in time.

"And you can't keep up with me."

Rey stepped on the pedal to the bottom and turned quickly. The Golden Heretic ignored the Dusk Magic Bullet. Its prey was the other two Goldens that were approaching the Archangel.

"That bastard—"

Dusk Bullet immediately knew what Rey was planning. Rey deliberately used the Vulcan Cannon to highlight the Golden Heretic's lack of shooting weapons and expose his weakness.

But the Golden Heretic has a huge advantage.

""

A rapid warning sound alerted King, a handheld missile, that it was in danger. It was cut in the waist before it could even change direction while flying through the Archangel's anti-aircraft fire. The ultra-high temperature particle beam, which was different from a physical sword, instantly melted King's armor and finally cut him in half.

This is the advantage of the Golden Heretic, its performance far exceeds that of Jin En.

Rey didn't stop. The nozzles all over the Golden Heretic's body controlled its direction, and the fleeting blue flames embellished this ballet.

The next moment, the second Jin En, who was holding an anti-ship missile, collided with the beam saber thrown by Jin Heretic, piercing from his right shoulder to his left shoulder.

The golden heretic who followed closely behind drew out a second saber and slashed Jin En diagonally.

The two Jinns that were still flying in the air a few seconds ago fell one after the other, leaving behind a golden heretic stained with dark colors. Its white shoulder armor was stained with oil splashed from somewhere in the Jinn, like a blood-stained giant.

The saber swung, leaving behind a fleeting shadow, and the Golden Heretic rushed towards the direction of the last Jin En.

At the same time, the heavy artillery Jin En took advantage of the distance to turn around and accelerate, heading towards the entangled Holy Shield and the Assault.

A few seconds later, the Holy Shield also gave up the attack and escaped from the hole they had made with the last Jinn.

They came with great momentum but left in disgrace, with half of the four-plane squadron lost.

Rei, who was only making a feint to scare the enemy, leaned back in his seat, and the Golden Heretic also put a saber back.

"You didn't even shoot a gun, what's the point, huh? Where's my knife?"

Rei jumped up from his seat. He looked so awkward now as he threw it away.

Strike, the most advanced MS jointly developed by the Earth Union and Orb, has three interchangeable backpacks to cope with different combat situations and is the crystallization of industrial technology.

But something was not right with the MS on the other side. The gold color on it looked crude when viewed up close, because this layer of gold was the color of the skeleton. When viewed from the back, one could even see the joints inside the armor.

The Heretic is such a machine. The armor on the front of the body is naturally for protection, but the back is spared as much as possible to reduce the weight and add posture nozzles, striving for higher maneuverability.

As for the problem of insufficient defense at the back, people have already gone around and fired at us from behind, so what's the point of armor?

It is also because of this that the completed Golden Heretic has a sense of incompleteness.

The appearance of the Heretic is similar to that of the Assault, especially the eyes and V-shaped antenna. Even if they are not brothers, they should be from the same series.

This seemed very strange to the officers of the Earth Federation. Plan G should only have five MSs. Where did this MS come from?

The young man descending from the cockpit should be able to give the answer.

In mid-air, Rey was descending using the lifting rope. He was now wearing only ordinary work clothes, but the pilot who left the cockpit of the assault plane was also wearing everyday clothes, with a youthful look on his face.

Isn't this a child?

Rei frowned, thinking of the young soldier

Let’s talk about it later.

Because we still have to deal with these people from the Earth Union first.

"Are you the pilot of that mobile suit?"

This is what the brunette said.

"You're really amazing to be able to drive that thing."

This is what the blond man said.

"What's going on with that mobile suit? Please explain immediately."

This is what the black-haired woman said.

The three people's words were mixed together so that it was impossible to hear any of them. They all showed awkward expressions due to lack of coordination.

Rei looked at the three people in front of him seriously. This was the first time he saw other real living people.

Am I dreaming or have I been crazy for more than twenty years?

Rei felt no discomfort, which was why he was surprised. Wasn't he from the AEU? Why didn't he feel unfamiliar with the Earth Union? He knew all this because he was from Orb. How strange.

"I'm Rey Rhodes, an employee of the Dawn Society."

Probably.

"Aurora? Orb's military-industrial complex?"

Hearing this, the brunette, as someone who knew the inside story, immediately made a guess, and Ray immediately verified her guess:

"That's the thing. No country will miss the opportunity to enhance its military strength. Without sufficient strength, how can it maintain neutrality?"

As Rei spoke, he looked towards the Golden Heretic, which was the military force of Orb.

A weak country has no diplomacy, and war will bring destruction. Orb will naturally seek power and backing to protect itself. Cooperating with Earth to develop MS is itself a statement.

Rei turned back and said with a slightly strange smile:

"In a short while, Orb will join the Earth Union in condemning ZAFT's sabotage of Heliopolis and officially join the Earth Union."

However, as soon as these words came out, they were immediately denied by someone:

"That's impossible! There's no way Orb will join the Earth Union!"

It was the boy piloting the Strike Force. He fiercely denied Ray's words, but when he noticed everyone's attention was focused on him, he turned cowardly and ran away.

The boy did not have any military elements in him.

"I feel relieved."

Rei said.

Chapter 3 Commander

Let’s sort out the current situation:

Of the five G-units that were supposed to be delivered to the Earth Federation, four were taken away: the Storm, which was responsible for medium and long-range support missions, the Holy Shield, which had a transformation mechanism and was equipped with heavy firepower, and the Thunder, which was equipped with a Mirage system.

The only one left was the Assault, which changed its equipment according to the battle situation. The pilot of the Assault was actually a student named Kira Yamato.

This young Adjuster programmed a completely new control system on the spot during the battle at an extremely short time, transforming the Assault from a mobile piece of hardened scrap metal into a high-performance MS.

And now he was driving the assault ship with a sour face to deliver the rescued supplies to the Archangel. At this point, all the supplies that could be transported in a short time had been transported.

Unfortunately, Kira was still in a very bad mood. Not to mention that he and his friends were forced to board the ship just by seeing the weapons of the Earth Army. What about Athrun joining ZAFT?

"That's enough."

Kira's mind was in a mess. He opened the cockpit and immediately heard the call of the mechanic Kojiro Maddock:

"Boy, I need your help with something here.

Let’s put the hangar matter aside for now. At the same time, a discussion is taking place inside the bridge of the Archangel. They have to decide how to act next.

The captain of the Archangel is currently the highest-ranking Mariu Ramias, and the deputy captain is Natal Bakilulu.

These two were not the only ones involved in the discussion. Mu La Folada, who was escorting the Earth Army to Heliopolis to receive five G-tanks and the Archangel, lost his comrades in the battle with the enemy and could only act with the Archangel.

As for Rei, who was also on the bridge, he was just being questioned about heresy as an employee of the Aurora Society.

Back to the topic of the discussion, Bakilulu advocated waiting for reinforcements in the colony satellite. Considering that the Archangel was in a difficult situation and could hardly protect itself, it really shouldn't leave the colony satellite and fall into the trap.

But Mu has a different opinion. He thinks that they should leave the colonial satellite as soon as possible because it cannot withstand any more turmoil.

"I know the enemy commander. To that madman, destroying one or two colonies is no big deal as long as he can achieve his goal."

Mu's words made people feel that he was exaggerating. It was as outrageous as saying that the enemy was going to raze the entire city to the ground. Did the other side really not care about casualties or public opinion?

But the facts are before our eyes. Ray completely agrees with Mu's opinion. He interrupted and said:

"Those three Jinn units were all equipped with anti-ship equipment capable of causing massive damage, and they've already fired recklessly inside the satellite. I don't think they're under any psychological pressure to destroy the colony."

"Right! If we delay any longer, the enemy's naval guns will fire directly at the satellite from outside and crush us to death in the wreckage."

With Ray's approval, Mu directly pursued the victory. This time, Bakilulu also nodded slightly, not expecting the enemy to have any lower limit.

But as the captain, Malu must point out the most important issue:

"If we hide inside the satellite, the enemy will destroy it along with it. And they're waiting outside. Can we really shake them off with just the Archangel and two mobile suits?"

The MA Mobius Zero piloted by Mu has not been repaired yet, leaving only the Strike and Golden Heretic MSs, which do have a great advantage over ZAFT's MSs.

But since the Holy Shield has been deployed on the battlefield, there is a high probability that the remaining Duels, Storm, and Thunder will attack together next time.

Everyone can analyze the current situation, but what is needed now is a way to break it.

ZAFT's pursuers are waiting outside, and the enemy has the advantage in military strength. How should we fight?

Just as everyone fell silent and the atmosphere grew heavy, Ray spoke:

"The Archangel is far superior to ZAFT's ships. We must exploit this fact. I am well aware of the capabilities and armament of the five G-series."

What tactics will the enemy employ in this upcoming battle? How will we respond? How will we deploy our troops?

Rei used to be the captain of the MS team, so he has experience in this area. What follows is just to do his best and leave the rest to fate.

"First, considering that ZAFT will put all four of the captured G-Forces to use—"

Dividing line

Outside the colony satellite, ZAFT's Nazca-class and Lorasia-class warships are docked there. They have received orders and, under the leadership of Commander Rau Lu Cruze, are tasked with capturing the Earth Federation's five new mobile suits.

Unfortunately, the mission encountered an unexpected problem. Not only did they fail to seize the machine named Strike, but they also discovered the Earth Army's new battleship and a new MS that was not in the intelligence.

As a result, Team Cruze lost three Jinns. If they hadn't had the four stolen MSs, they would have had no soldiers left.

In short, the Earth Army's new mobile suits and battleships have shown excellent performance. If they cannot seize them, they can only be destroyed. At this time, Cruze is explaining the next action to his subordinates in the bridge:

"First, Xunlei will use the Mirage system to enter the interior of Heliopolis and continue to track the enemy ships."

The Thunder is equipped with an optical camouflage system called Mirage System, which releases phantom particles to deflect visible light, absorb radar waves, and use magnetic fields to attract phantom particles around the fuselage, making the fuselage invisible for a certain period of time, even to radar.
