Gundam EXARE

"Is it that easy to hit?"

The sudden attack of two white MSs, one in front and one behind, changed the originally one-sided battle situation.

PS: Wow! I'm a popular new book! Everyone, please contribute more to it!

Chapter 33: War (Part 3)

A golden MS that was not in Halberton's memory passed by in front of him. Unlike the five G machines he knew, this golden body gave people the impression of a skinny monkey. After all, when it turned around, the incomplete outer armor on the back and the golden skeleton inside were exposed.

Compared to the Gold Heretic and ZAFT's mobile suits, they look like naked soldiers going into battle. Unfortunately, stereotypes don't determine the outcome of a battle.

The charging golden heretic raised the electromagnetic cannon in his right hand, and the muzzle of the electromagnetic cannon flashed. Then, an enemy aircraft light spot disappeared from the radar of Halbadon's ship, the Menelaos.

The golden heretic, who seemed to be behaving normally in the previous second, turned his body upside down again in this second, and moved forward in a spiral shape, continuously pouring out Vulcan cannons from both sides of his head.

A series of bullets caused fragments of the camera to fly out of Xigu's face, and the rockets that followed completely blew up Xigu's body.

"Who is the pilot of that mobile suit?"

Although Halberton is not a pilot, he is not a fool. The Menelaos filmed the battle scene of the Golden Heretic just now. Like Jin Ensigu, the Golden Heretic was holding old weapons in both hands.

This doesn't mean that the weapon's performance is weak, but that although the Golden Heretic has a beam rifle hanging behind his waist, he has never taken it out to use it.

The reason is simple, the beam rifle consumes the power of the machine itself.

At this time, the electromagnetic cannon in Jin Yiduan's hand is powered by a large battery, not to mention the rocket launcher.

Although they are from different worlds, the Gold Heretic and the Brutal are both MS that require external charging.

Since we know there will be a fierce battle coming up, we should save as much electricity as possible.

With this thought in mind, Ray watched as a rocket flew out and hit a King's waist, blowing it into several pieces.

Rei's eyes moved quickly, searching for his next prey.

Unlike the previous battle, he was silent and did not seem half-crazy at all.

This isn't a tough enemy. I'm too lazy to attack you. You don't deserve to hear it.

At this moment, Ray's pupils suddenly dilated, and the joystick he pulled coordinated with his feet, and the movements of his limbs drove the movements of the MS.

The Golden Heretic seemed to be an extension of the driver's body. It kept moving while raising the shield hanging on its left wrist, and it was this action that blocked the sniper.

The yellow beam bombarding from afar hit the shield, causing the anti-beam coating on it to quickly evaporate.

The golden heretic turned to avoid the remaining beams, and with the deformed shield, it readjusted its affected balance.

In the distance, Baofeng, holding a two-in-one heavy artillery, was the sniper just now.

Logically speaking, this is what the Storm should do. It attacks the enemy accurately with high firepower from a distance, and neither battleships nor fortresses can stand up to it, let alone MS.

But what is going on?

"Again!"

Diego looked unwilling as he piloted his Storm to change his position on the battlefield where artillery fire was flying.

He just couldn't understand why both the Assault and the Golden Machine were so strange. Why could they always respond to his sniper attacks in that situation?

Could this be the unscientific sixth sense mentioned in that unscientific magazine? What a joke!

That’s right, you’re kidding!

The same thoughts arose in the hearts of the ZAFT soldiers.

About two seconds ago, although Bao Feng's sniper shot failed to shoot down the Golden Heretic, the impact force completely destroyed the Golden Heretic's balance. It was falling in one direction, and the moving posture nozzle was for adjustment rather than changing direction.

A Jin En, noticing this, raised the rocket launcher in his hand and fired at the Golden Heretic. He chased the Golden Heretic, wanting to take this opportunity to shoot him down.

Two seconds later, Jin'en's body was enveloped in the flames of the explosion, because the rockets fired by it and the rockets fired by Jin Heretic collided in mid-air.

Using a rocket launcher to intercept a rocket launcher? Is this something a normal person can do?

Anyway, Rey did it. He did it if he thought he could do it.

Ever since he woke up in this world, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. The universe and the earth were really completely different.

At this time, Jin En rushed out from the fire and lost his right hand and the rocket launcher. He drew out the heavy sword with his left hand, and his body shook but he still charged towards this side accurately.

It was a waste of talent to use this skill just to pilot Jin En. Jin En rushed forward and stabbed, and the heavy sword passed by the side of Jin Heretic's head.

Jin Yidu lowered his body and adjusted his movements, then kicked forward with his right foot and bounced out at another angle.

"You're using me as a stepping stone?!"

"It's quite capable and worthy of praise."

Rey's poker face disappeared, and with a half-smile he squeezed the trigger sending the bonus rocket into Jinn's chest.

The exploding flames cast a shadow on the golden heretic, and it bent in an arc and turned back.

Looking back, the number of ZAFT mobile suits that broke through the Eighth Fleet's defenses was greatly reduced, and this was not just the result of the Gold Heretic's single mobile suit.

Unlike the Golden Heretic who uses 200% of its mobility, the Perfect Assault cannot keep up with the Golden Heretic at all, but it also has its own way of fighting.

After all, Ray is a MS pilot, and the MA he knows is very different from Mobius.

Mu knew very well what kind of machines Mobius was and how they fought, which was why he was able to cooperate with the remaining MAs in the attack.

The Perfect Assault's movement was only maintained at the level of self-protection to avoid being hit. The multi-purpose weapon pod from the gun mount on its right shoulder was constantly spewing out artillery fire. The power of that 120mm anti-ship Vulcan cannon was much greater than the Vulcan cannon used for head-mounted air defense.

This was simply a Gatling gun. The bullets it fired forced a Xigu to dodge. Then, the Xigu was hit by the linear cannon and was hit by dozens of holes in the anti-ship Vulcan cannon in the imbalance.

"it is good!"

This is how Mu fought. He didn't want to rely on mobility comparable to that of a naked soldier to break into the enemy camp. The battery was already insufficient, and if he was hit by a few more rockets, it would run out of power on the spot.

The Perfect Assault sought out the enemy engaged with Mobius, and two missiles fired from the twin 350mm launchers on its right shoulder caught up with a King that was dodging Mobius's attack, blasting it into a sea of ​​fire.

In this way, another Jinn was shot down.

The Earth Army's two extra MSs brought about a noticeable change in the battle situation. The Golden Heretic and the Perfect Assault shot down the enemy plane and saved Mobius at the same time.

The number of ZAFT's MS that broke through the defense line was decreasing, but the number of Mobius of the Earth Army did not decrease, and the Earth Army's mobile suits started to snowball.

The precarious situation of the Eighth Fleet not long ago seemed like an illusion. Although four of the five Gs were taken away, the last remaining one proved its performance before Halbertton's eyes.

He had never seen all three backpacks stacked together in the design, and as for the unknown MS Halberdun, he actually had some guesses in his mind.

It was undoubtedly the Archangel that changed the situation of the battle. At this time, the Archangel, which was about to reunite with the Eighth Fleet, was finally able to communicate with Halbertton's Menelaos in this radio interference environment.

A familiar face appeared in Halberton's eyes. The student who seemed very green in his memory had become so resolute and sat steadily in the captain's seat.

"Admiral, please organize your troops and find an opportunity to retreat!"

Marilu in the Archangel spoke such cowardly words as soon as she opened her mouth. If a fool heard it, he would immediately scold her for disrupting the morale of the army.

But Halberdon was very satisfied with Malu's suggestion, just as he was satisfied with his previous support for the Archangel.

Mari did a good job. She was not stupid enough to attack ZAFT's fleet directly with the Archangel. No one really thought that the Archangel could kill ZAFT's fleet in one go, right?

If the two mobile suits of the Archangel had not come to rescue the Eighth Fleet, it would only be a matter of time before the Menelaos, the flagship of the Eighth Fleet, was sunk.

Once the Menelaos is sunk, the morale of the Eighth Fleet will completely collapse, and the end result will be that ZAFT turns around and surrounds the Archangel and the two MSs.

Unless you say that the Archangel and the two MSs can destroy the ZAFT fleet within a minute, otherwise it would be courting death.

Although the situation at this time looks good and it seems that a major counterattack can be launched immediately, the reality is not so.

Thinking of this, Halberton said:

"Malu Ramyas, it's impossible for the Archangel to reach the lunar base now. I want you to land on Earth immediately."

Look at the miserable state of the Eighth Fleet. The Earth Army's previous practice of hiding in the lunar base seemed weak but very effective. Mobius could not defeat King at all.

If this is the situation here, then the other fleets won't be much better.

There is no way to send Archangel to the moon in this way. The only way is to land on the earth, and Archangel has the ability to do this.

"Our Eighth Fleet will cover you. Your goal is—"

"Well?!"

At this moment, the communication between the two warships was suddenly cut off for a moment. When it was reconnected, Malu bent his body, as if he had been shocked.

The Archangel took a direct hit, and the bombardment hit the side of the Archangel, but this time it failed to cause any damage, but defense is not infinite.

"Fire the anti-beam blaster!"

Bakilulu, whose military cap had fallen off her head, immediately gave instructions. At the same time, Sai reported in a horrified tone:

"High-energy reaction coming from the nine o'clock direction!"

Unlike the previous red and white beam, this time it was an emerald green beam.

The Archangel's anti-beam bomb had not yet been launched, and the attacker chose the right moment and even aimed very precisely.

Your armor is indeed powerful, but what if you shoot at the same place repeatedly?

Just as PS Armor becomes difficult to absorb damage when the same position is repeatedly attacked, the Archangel's layered armor also has a limit to its ability to absorb light beams.

Although they were fired one after the other, the second emerald green beam accurately determined where the wound on the Archangel would be next.

“How could we be sunk here?”

Arnold Neumann, the Archangel's helmsman, was already pulling on the rudder before he even uttered the words.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Chapter 34: War (Part 4)

If the Archangel is hit by a high-powered beam in the same spot again, it will be penetrated, so it will be fine as long as it is not hit in the same spot.

Archangel's helmsman Noid's intuition was even faster than Bakilulu's orders. He made a judgment the moment Archangel was hit for the first time.

It was this intuition that saved the Archangel. The entire ship capsized directly to the right, allowing the incoming light beam to hit the bottom of the Archangel, which had not been damaged yet. The Archangel relied on the intact armor on the bottom to withstand the blow.

Not only that, the anti-aircraft Vulcan cannon under the Archangel's hull also began to correct its firing according to the program, firing in the direction of the enemy.

Everyone on the bridge witnessed the scene turned upside down, and the anti-beam bombs that were supposed to be launched were temporarily forgotten.

In Noid's hands, the Archangel, as a battleship, performed side-rolling movements similar to those of a fighter jet.

Is this a special assault mobile suit that can accommodate mobile suits? It's said to have assault maneuvers, but no one really thinks it can perform the same tactical maneuvers as fighter jets, right?

The amazing action also paid off. At this time, the Archangel avoided serious damage and slowly leveled off. The light spots of the enemy aircraft appeared on its radar, and the anti-aircraft Vulcan was continuously firing in the direction of the enemy aircraft.

"What are you standing there for! Fire the anti-beam bomb!"

"Yes!"

Bakilulu's scolding brought everyone back to their senses. The explosive bombs they fired created a thick fog around the Archangel, thus blocking the enemy's long-range firepower.

The attack just now was undoubtedly from the Holy Shield, and only the Kraken Cannon was of this color.

"As expected, it came."

There was worry in Mariu's tone. She knew that Team Cruze would come, so she suggested retreating.

The Golden Heretic and the Perfect Strike seemed to be able to turn the tide of the battle only because ZAFT did not have a MS that could compete with these two machines, and how could the Cruze team, which had been chasing the Archangel, not come?

The Archangel was almost severely damaged; the enemy's timing was perfect.

However, the Archangel avoided this disaster thanks to its excellent helmsman.

Cruze, who witnessed the whole process, threw away the anti-ship heavy particle cannon held by the assault-type Jinn, leaving this weapon that consumed extremely much energy but could not produce any results.

They actually waited for a while, and only seized the opportunity to join the game after the Golden Heretic and Perfect Assault went away to support the Eighth Fleet.

Don't talk about abandoning your comrades on the front line. War is about everyone doing their part.

At this time, the Archangel was at its weakest without any escorting MS.

Assault-Type Xigu attacked the Archangel with the Holy Shield and the new Duel, and Cruze also gave the order:

"Athrun, Yitzhak, our only target is the Long-legged Ship."

"Yes!"

"Yes."

Although there was a response, this before and after also proved the difference in mentality between Aslan and Yitzhak.

For Aslan, as a soldier, it is more important to follow orders, and he can look at problems more rationally.

But Yzak is different. As mentioned before, he returned to the team with a personal grudge, and he cares more about the Golden Heretic than the Archangel.
