Chapter 229: Artemis of the Umbrella (3)(1/2)
"The mission is completed, return immediately!"
Nigol drove Thunder Gundam and broke out of Artemis Fortress like a no-man. These defensive weapons could not cause damage to it.
Just as Thunder Gundam was about to drive away from the fortress, a beam of light suddenly came from behind him. Its speed was so fast that Nigol was hit at the same time when he heard the radar's alarm, followed by a computer prompt:
"Warning, power is damaged, please take it out as soon as possible! Warning, power is damaged, please take it out as soon as possible!"
"Attack?! Where did it come from?!"
Nigol became alert, but then one beam after another came from different directions. He risked the system being overloaded and turned on the illusion particle system again.
However, he miscalculated
Thunder Gundam gradually approached the meteorite belt ahead. Although Nigol discovered this fact, in order to avoid pursuit, he could only rush into the meteorite belt. His communication function was disturbed by unknown factors and could not seek help.
"I'm taking the bait, ready to catch fish!"
The moment Thunder Gundam rushed into the meteorite belt, the surrounding gravel was immediately detonated. Nigor, who was still confused, was frightened by the trap and was stunned in the cab. He was at a loss for a moment
"ah!"
After the explosion, there was another electric shock. Nigor, who was already exhausted due to the mission, fainted immediately after being electrocuted. He could only see two black shadows floating in front of Thunder Gundam, and closed his eyes.
"Captain, you won't electrocut him, right?"
"It will only make people faint. I will give it to Sha Yejia and them, let's go"
"yes!"
Beiyu has been eyeing the lonely Thunder Gundam from the beginning. He first asked Olga to shoot with a long-distance beam gun to force Nigol into the meteorite belt, and used special instruments to interfere with communication nearby, and then captured it with small tricks such as explosion and sneak attack.
"Hey, can you hear it? Lilya, your team can act. Let's deal with Zaft, you go and save Kasbar."
"receive"
Beiyu's plan is divided into two parts. The first part is led by him to intercept Zaft's elite combat power. Even if Kruze finds a problem, it will take some time to transfer other troops.
The second part is to take advantage of this time difference. Kashiyuriya led the team to the fortress to rescue the people of Kasbar and the Archangel, and finally descended to the earth.
Yes, it is to descend the earth. Beiyu did not want to wipe out Zaft completely. Zaft's warship could not land on the earth due to design problems, and those Genes could not break through the atmosphere alone. Beiyu had already asked the professor to do a good job of countermeasures.
Zaft, on the Nasca-class battleship
"Have you lost contact with Thunder Gundam?"
"Yes, as planned, Thunderbolt should return ten minutes ago, but..."
Cruze sat in the captain's seat, and he suddenly felt the problem. According to information, there was no weapon to stop Thunder Gundam from retreating.
“The location of the last communication?”
“Here”
Kruze looked at the map and found an abnormality
"Have the meteorite belts here been investigated by friendly forces before?"
“Yes, but there is no value available here”
"any?"
Kruze chuckled, pointed to the meteorite belt on the map, and said:
"If it were me, I would set up an ambush here and deliberately lure Thunder Gundam to come here."
"But the captain, the Federal Army..."
Kruze waved his hand and continued:
"This is my speculation. What if there are third-party forces here intervene?"
"Are you referring to...Aub? But haven't they always claimed neutrality?"
"It is not impossible to have one set behind the scenes, or some people who can work hard to make trouble with money are immediately informing Aslan and the others to stop capturing the Artemis Fortress and immediately investigate the meteorite belt."
"That offensive thing..."
"Don't worry"
Kruze waved his hand and said confidently:
"When the reinforcements arrive, no matter what force it is, they will show up."
Artemis Fortress Port, inside the Archangel
"laugh"
The bridge gate was opened and seeing that there were no other staff inside, Maru breathed a sigh of relief and pinned the pistol into the gun bag at her waist.
"All staff prepare and set sail in five minutes"
"Start? Where to go?!"
"At least we must repel the Zaft army outside first..."
Gnaku
"Don't, don't move! If you dare to come over, I will detonate this powerful attack Gundam!"
The preparatory chief Malik held his voice with an inexplicable handle and stood in front of the attack Gundam. The soldier approached step by step with his gun, but he did not retreat at all.
"I'm really detonating!"
"Mr. Malik!"
Kira ran over from the upper deck, suddenly threw a smoke bomb, and ran down the stairs
"Boy, you're here too slowly, cough cough cough cough..."
"Leave it to me, Mr. Malik returns to the Archangel first."
In the smoke, Kira touched the footsteps of the strong attack Gundam, where there was an emergency start device, and the locked system could be unlocked with fingerprints, but it would take some time
The moment before the smoke cleared, the cockpit door finally opened. Kira quickly pulled the cable, and the rope rose automatically, and entered the cockpit in just a few seconds.
"shooting!"
The guards below raised their guns and shot at the cockpit. Fortunately, the cabin door was closed fast enough. Kira watched a stray bullet rubbing his face, his face was scratched, and the bullet hit the bulkhead behind him, which scared him to sweat coldly.
“………”
Kira paused, this was the closest he had to die, but there was no time to think about it, the crisp sound of bullets hitting the PS armor pulled him back to reality
"I……"
He pulled out the mechanical keyboard, completely unlocked the system, and launched the attack on Gundam
"Is it only 60% of the power..."
Thinking about it, he knew that there was Zaft's attack outside, and the power of the PS armor could not be exhausted here.
The attack Gundam broke free from the garage and stomped the ground hard. The guards below were so scared that they dared not move.
"No, if you don't want to die, leave quickly!"
Kira turned on the on-board audio and said this, he felt that he had changed too much today
"Bang!"
Not far away, the gate of Gnaku was suddenly blown open, followed by a bullet storm. Three Jeans broke in and shot at these unarmed people. People who had no time to escape here were killed and injured in an instant.
"stop!"
Blood was soaring, Kira was really angry, and controlled the striking attack Gundam to pull out two armor-breaker short swords, and rushed up with all the power, directly knocking down one Jean, swinging the short sword, cutting the mechanical head down, and seeing this, the other two Jeans immediately pulled out the physical swords, one left and one right, slashing towards the striking attack Gundam. Although it did not hurt its body, it pressed the striking attack Gundam to the ground
"Wow!"
Two Jeans pressed against Gundam and beat him over and over again. Kira, who was sitting in the cockpit, was hit a lot and almost fainted.
At this moment, a black shadow passed by two Jeans. Their movements were stagnant, and then they fell to the ground without any movement.
“………”
"Can you hear it? The pilot who attacked Gundam, entered the universe through this gap, returned to the Archangel, Captain Mary is waiting for you!"
The bright orange and white intersected, and the slender MS stood in front of the strong attack Gundam. When it turned back to the mechanical head, Kira clearly saw that, like his strong attack Gundam, he had a "face", and he was even more confused.
“…Gundam? Who are you?”
"Hurry up, there's no time!"
The crisp female voice once again passed through the communicator to the cab. Kira nodded in confusion, then controlled the body and stood up, rushed towards the notch, and the thruster on her back ejected white flames, driving the body into the universe.
"Kira, return to the Archangel immediately and prepare to fight against the Zaft army"
"Come, receive!"
Seeing Captain Mary was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief. The door of the Archangel opened and the attack Gundam slid in.
"Immediately change the attack Gundam, prepare the ejection procedure, and cover the main gun to shoot!"
According to the reservation, Kamiyuya led the team into the fortress. Beiyu instructed that as long as the Archangel and the Kasbar team were safe and sound, the goal is basically achieved. However, the armed transport ship was crushed under the ruins and could not be used for the time being. Others were guarding the gap, waiting for Kasbar and others to drive the MS to meet up.
"Darling, I will complete the task according to the planned one!"
