Time back to the present

The four of them each boarded their own fighter planes. The Angel Squad's fighter planes were all painted in bright orange and white colors, and the fuselage had a mark of a wing.

"Want to save my woman?"

A familiar voice came from the communicator, and Beiyu looked up at the tower.

Roy Foca stood there, shaking the earphones in his hand

"Are you sure?"

"have"

"Then I won't say much, come back alive! Catapult Clear!"

The hangar door slowly opened, and four fighter jets were pushed onto the launch platform one by one

VF-UX was the first to be hit and was ejected. Since the hangar is far from the bridge, and the four machines have turned on the concealment system in advance, the bridge is not displayed.

“XP128, YP175, we only have 20 minutes to travel at most”

"Received! skull 2, we'll be following you"

What Beiyu is now fighting for is to successfully rescue the person before the warship of the Zen Star is leaping into space. Otherwise, once he jumps, he will return to the other party's base camp and he will be unable to fly.

After nearly 20 minutes of rushing, they finally saw the zenith star warship that was suspended among dense meteorite blocks.

"All members should pay attention. After breaking into the enemy ship, if there is no accident, all members will be silent on their radio. Every 30 seconds, Kawashima only contacts them regularly. The rest use optical signal communication to seize this opportunity. Do you have anything else to ask?"

All four aircraft are turned on to conceal the system, so they are not discovered when approaching the enemy ship; from the shadow area, close to the tail of the battleship, the four aircraft are all replaced by combatants, and an air gate is found.

Kawashima Wei controlled the body to move forward, the outside of the robot arm was opened, and many tools extended from the inside were connected to the external interface of the airlock.

"Rewrite the program, lock the gate, create camouflage targets, and the roadmap within the ship..."

When she was working, Kawashita Yui was muttering something, pulling out a mechanical keyboard from the left side of the driver's chair, and her fingers were typing quickly. She not only specializes in electronic information, but also has high computer skills.

Accessed from the external network, because the airlock gates of the Zenith Star are controlled by a separate system and do not link the main network within the ship, Kawashita Nishita quickly got the airlock and released a virtual signal at the same time. It took only 0.1 seconds to change between signals.

The soldiers in the duty room were dozing off, so Kawashima Wei changed the system and did not see it

"I have sent a copy of the road map for everyone in the ship. I am in a hurry and I have not checked where the cell is. I will notify you every 30 seconds of contact." Kawashita said, his fingers stopped typing on the keyboard, and controlled the body to set up a cannon.

"I'm here"

"Received, all staff, are you ready?"

After everything was ready, Beiyu took a deep breath and said

"All staff, break in! We only have ten minutes!"

He pushed the joystick, the VF-UX jumped down, jumped into the inside of the battleship

The rescue mission officially began, Kawashita pressed his watch at the same time

Only ten minutes, countdown to pass one second

Beiyu's eyes flashed across the monitor on the screen. There was no movement around him, no sign of life, only the three channels in front of him were open.

"The passage on the left, go forward 500 meters and turn right"

In the first 30th second, Kawashita Wei quickly told them the route they were about to take

They only had ten minutes in total, 20 communications, each time was crucial, her job was not just about finding a route, all the information along the way needed to be provided by her

In order to save time on the ship, all members switched to the Guardian form and flew closely to the ground.

"Stop, a team of soldiers pass by"

Seeing that the passage entrance was right in front of him, soldiers were about to patrol soon. Beiyu hurriedly controlled the body to flip it 180 degrees and pressed it on the armor plate above in an upside-down posture. The other two followed his actions.

About 20 seconds passed, a team of fully equipped zenith star soldiers walked through the tunnel, and the three of them almost drove the engine to the minimum

"After passing the passage, there is a ventilation duct above the hall. After entering, go forward 200 meters and have two forks. Walk to the left and walk forward 100 meters after exiting the fork."

According to the instructions, several people came to a hall, surrounded by unactivated combat bag mechas.

It was the warehouse, and the three of them came to the reserve warehouse. They could not allow them to observe more. Nova just controlled the monitor and took a photo of the warehouse and left.

After entering the ventilation duct, the space becomes extremely narrow, and it is difficult to pass the combatant mode of the VF fighter.

"Don't panic, we can get through"

Two minutes had passed, and it took another two minutes before the three of them left the passage. At this time, Kawashima Wei's communication came again

"From your current position to the right 300 meters, there should be a lift there, go down to the bottom floor, go straight 155 meters, there is a pipe connecting to the prison area."

The three of them didn't want to delay too much in a second, so they changed to the Guardian form and rushed over; as Kawashima Wei said, there was indeed a lift there, but the three of them couldn't understand the text on it.

"System, translate it"

Before the system translation results were released, the door of the elevator opened. A zenith star soldier was about to leave. When he looked up, he saw the three robots in front of him. He was shocked.

VF-UX stepped forward and kicked the opponent out with one kick

"There is no time left, so I can only force the elevator to cut it open."

Beiyu thought so, his hands were moving faster. While popping out two alloy daggers with wrist shield, he covered them with a point-shift protective cover.

A knife stabbed into the steel plate at the bottom. Alter said that the alloy dagger had pierced it and could be cut.

The left and right robot arms moved at the same time, cutting out a gap that could accommodate the size of the body's passage, and VF-UX jumped first.

After using a laser to measure how deep it is below, the engine was sprayed and the body gently landed on the ground. While the other two were still descending, Beiyu controlled the robot arm to cut the door of the bottom elevator.

Six minutes have passed

Half past, I was about to arrive at the prison area and found the passage described by Kawashima Wei. I still cut it with an alloy dagger. The body drilled into it and quickly came to the top of the prison area. The three of them could clearly see what it looked like below. Many zenith star soldiers were patrolling. The doors in the room in the passage were closed, so it should be the cell.

"Seven minutes have passed, please hurry up."

In desperation, if they want to save the four people, the fastest way is to break through directly

"Yang, attract firepower, Nova, you are responsible for supporting her"

After transmitting the message with the light signal, VF-UX kicked the alloy plate below, jumped down, aimed at the soldiers around him, and the 12.7mm machine gun on both robotic arms opened fire.

The Zenith Star soldiers who were patrolling were at a loss by the sudden attack and fled one after another, with only a few people hiding behind the wall to fight back

"The life reaction of Hayase Misa and others has been detected, and it is in the cell on the left 100 meters ahead!" Alter reminded

"Yang! Top it up! I'll go save someone"

Yang received the order and controlled VF1 to jump off the pipe, set up the cannon and started shooting. Nova hid in the pipe, shot one by one, killing all the soldiers who could approach Yang's body.

Hearing the movement outside, Hayase Misa, who had just talked with Hiroki for a long time, raised her index finger and pressed her mouth.

"Listen, there is movement outside"

"It's Beiyu and the others"

Kamiyuri was huddled in the corner of the wall, and suddenly the system issued a prompt, showing that Beiyu was nearby, which made her overjoyed, and then she thought of another question.

There are too many soldiers on the Zen Star Warship. With his own strength, his position has been exposed now, so there may be more soldiers blocking him when he returns.

The gate was cut open with an alloy dagger wrapped in a point-removing shield. Beiyu switched the fighter to the Guardian form and drilled in.

"Everyone hurry up! We're going to take it off!" Beiyu shouted through the onboard megaphone.

"Captain Kitayu?! Why are you here? Is it Macross who came to rescue?" Hayase Misa was shocked. Although he thought it was very likely to be a rescue, he never thought it would be him.

"It's a long story, come on quickly."

Spreading the palm of the robot, Hayase Misa, Akaki, Kashizaki Soo and others all sat on it, and Kashi Yuriya entered the cockpit and became the co-pilot of Kitayu.

"I didn't expect Da Ling to come and save us so soon," Kaei Yuriya said softly, while taking over the radar system on the plane.

"No matter what happens, I will protect your safety as soon as possible."

Beiyu looked into the rearview mirror, and Miya Yuriya gave him a sweet smile

"By the way, this time I came with me to rescue you is your angel squad."

"They? They have just been on the battlefield twice!"

Looking outside, Yang and Nova have a very good match. One person attracts firepower, and the other person fires cold guns in the pipeline. Around the soldiers are killed and injured.

"The four people have been successfully rescued, let's go!"

"Person captain, why are you here!"

Max, who had just knocked a soldier out of the toilet, changed into the military uniform of the zenith star in the fighter form.

He had just approached the prison and heard the movement and came to check the situation. It turned out that it was Beiyu

"Max, it's just right here, come with us!"

"It's been more than 8 minutes, you still have 1 minute and 20 seconds!" Kawashita shouted anxiously through the communication channel.

"I have also been exposed here and am now exchanging fire with the enemy!"

"You are on the periphery of the warship, leave quickly."
