Brett Noah stood awe-inspiringly in the command tower, looking at the big screen in front of him with a solemn expression. The alien creatures that appeared on the screen were hovering not high from the ground, moving steadily towards the direction of the Kilimanjaro base. It trailed a few ribbon-like tails behind it, waving toilet paper-like arms on either side of its body, and a prominent red bead inlaid in the two rows of staggered canine teeth on its chest.
Cluster rockets and high-energy particle beams bombarded desperately on the invisible force field on its surface. The violent explosions and dazzling flashes shook the people in the command tower almost unable to open their eyes, but its footsteps did not. Slowed down by the slightest.
"Both live ammunition and energy weapons have no effect, and the first line of defense has broken through!" the tower personnel in front shouted hoarsely, "Commander, please instruct!"
"All field personnel immediately retreat to the Fifth Defense Line." Bright ordered calmly, "Using the main artillery array and missile clusters to carry out uninterrupted bombardment, the defense of the AT force field has an upper limit."
Bright had already obtained the detailed information of the apostle from Lingos, and the creature in front of him was obviously the Angel of Power written in the information. According to Lingos' description, this thing does not have the terrible long-range output capability of Thunder Angel, which means that the base is safe until the opponent breaks through the final line of defense.
"Commander, the second line of defense has broken through!" The voice of the tower staff sounded again, "The apostle defense has not yet penetrated, and the residual ammunition from the continuous bombardment is consumed too quickly!"
"Maintain the firepower." Bright was still calm, "Don't things like ammunition need to be placed in the armament room to grow mold?"
But why at this time
The meeting at the Kilimanjaro base was suggested by Lingus, and Lingus provided the materials and plans for the shelter. Last week, the two of them were still talking on the phone cheerfully about slaughtering these high-ranking officials for a fortune, returning the original amount of the A-Laws money, and splitting the money from the bigwigs between him and Anaheim, but now...
"Commander, the third line of defense has broken through!" The tower suddenly exclaimed, "The apostles changed their route and began to move towards the shelter!"
"Don't worry." Bright said solemnly, "The refuge is protected by 18 layers of special armor plates, so it should be fine. Before the refuge enters the sputtering range, maintain the firepower not to stop."
The location of the sanctuary was set by Lingus himself directly above the quantum coordinate generator. The other party even hinted that if something happened to him, we would carry forward the spirit of selfless dedication and let the people in difficulty go first. He Bright is indeed not a scheming character, but this level of subtext can still be heard.
Based on his trust in Lingos, he did everything, but everything that happened in front of him was telling him the truth seemed to be...
"Lingus, count you as cruel."
The commander's tower fell silent abruptly, there was no more bombing sound, and the force angel on the display had floated right above the shelter. I saw that the flat long arms on both sides of its body quickly contracted inward, and rolled into two small cylinders in front of the chest. In the next second, the cylinder suddenly stretched and slammed, cutting through the armor plate like a sharp blade and extending straight down.
"Commander, the armor of the shelter is damaged! Five, no, ten, fifteen, seventeen, eighteen..." The tower personnel were stunned, "All eighteen layers of armor were penetrated by one attack! In the end... What kind of monster is this?! "
The force angel on the screen slowly retracted the outstretched arm at this time. A CIC subconsciously enlarged the front end of the arm, and the bright red color silently explained to everyone present what happened below.
"Where's the contact over there?" Bright woke up the others who were still in shock, "Immediately count the casualties!"
"The communication device is damaged, so I can't get in touch!" CIC exclaimed almost immediately, "Commander, the apostle turned around and headed towards the base!"
The force angel on the screen is still sluggish with the ribbons fluttering on both sides. The arm does not know what kind of structure is extremely smooth, and the viscosity of the blood does not stay on it for a long time. However, everyone present felt suffocated every time it advanced, and the indiscriminate bombardment of heavy firepower could not bring a sense of peace of mind.
Bright asked calmly, "How's the quantum coordinate generator under the sanctuary?"
"Ah?" CIC was stunned for a moment before reacting, "It is completely destroyed, and the coordinates over there cannot be obtained."
"Sure enough, the location of Lingos is deliberate, there is a problem with the coordinate generator..." Bright gritted his teeth secretly, "The apostle found that the target was not below, did he realize that he was deceived? Then he is going to take us now. Humans vent their anger?"
"Commander, the fourth line of defense has broken through!" CIC shouted, "emergency communication, the identification signal is... the moon! Say reinforcements are on the way, let's wait, the signature is Adrian Lingos!"
"It's too late." Bright exhaled heavily, "Order the entire army to abandon the Kilimanjaro base, and everyone will be evacuated immediately."
"It's not too late!" A hearty voice sounded on the friendly channel, "I'll stop this thing, Commander Bright, I believe in Dr. Lingos!"
A Jie Gang suddenly appeared in the picture and galloped towards the force angel, the beam rifle lightly tapped the AT force field meaninglessly, without even a single ripple.
"Graham Aika!" Brett roared, "I didn't order a sortie!"
"It has nothing to do with your order, it's my own will." Graham replied in a firm voice, "Although I can't eliminate it like Major Amuro did, I can still attract its attention. . Airframe support and artillery assistance are not needed, leave it to me here, reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Bright was silent for a moment, and finally spit out a voice from between his teeth: "The apostle is handed over to Captain Aika, and everyone is ready to evacuate and act at any time."
"Beautiful decision, as expected of Captain Bright!" Graham in the cockpit moved his hands quickly, making all kinds of delicate micro-manipulations, "I had to give up the Gundam model in pursuit of better performance. The biggest regret, but this dilemma is also the fate of Virgo ACE!"
Under his control, Jie Gang revolved, panned, and flew up and down around the apostles. Under his guidance, the two flat arms of the force angel extended, extended, extended, and became longer and longer, and passed the fuselage again and again.
The length of the apostle's arm finally reached its limit. Jie Gang's spout turned forward, and the fuselage retreated sharply. With two ribbons, he slammed into the force and tied the Angel of Li firmly.
Graham in the cockpit couldn't help shrugging: "It seems that this thing really has no IQ."
The force angel, which bound itself, was still for about two seconds, and the two arms suddenly relaxed, and then rolled back at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. When Graham's dynamic vision caught up, its chest was once again. Grab two firm cylinders.
"The blow just now." Graham tightened the joystick in his hand and swallowed unconsciously, "I am a man qualified to drive a Gundam, there is no reason why I cannot escape."
That being said, Jie Gang was still maintaining irregular maneuvers, but Graham knew very well that just relying on his current movement speed would not be able to dodge the blow just now. Dynamic vision is not very useful, and you have to rely on intuition to avoid it, and the rest has to rely on luck.
Graham took a deep breath, then held his breath, staring at the two cylinders in front of him. After 1.5 seconds, he didn't see the apostle move. He just felt that the other party's swaying tail was a little uncoordinated. Gang's left arm.
"Hahaha!" Graham couldn't help laughing. "Today I am even above Amuro!"
Before he finished speaking, an invisible shock wave suddenly hit Jie Gang's fuselage, and the twenty-ton MS was easily knocked off like a rag doll. Graham inside the fuselage swallowed all the force and coughed up a mouthful of blood, only to feel that his internal organs were spinning.
Without thinking, he took off the blood-stained helmet and hung it aside. In the restored vision, the angel of power was raising two arms in front of him to charge, and the body status column on the main screen The position of the thrusters dimmed brutally.
"It seems that the doctor is a man who likes to be late!" He laughed cheerfully, "but if you want to die, you still want to die on Gundam! Ah! Unicorn, why are you so beautiful! I really want to hug you! Eminem Lo Ray! I'm so jealous of you!"
Just as he was talking, a ferocious and sturdy beam of light slammed into the front of Jie Gang, the whole earth was shaken, and the dazzling light pierced the entire sky. After a while, the light dissipated, and I saw that the two arms of the force angel were cut off from it and slumped weakly on the ground.
"You perverted idiot, stay away from my daughter!" Someone's ruthless scolding sounded on the public channel, "I can guarantee that you will never go high in your life again!"
Graham exclaimed excitedly: "I've been waiting for a long time, my father-in-law!"
I saw a streamer descending from the sky, pulling out a silver thread like a falling star. The silver thread looked at the AT force field as if nothing was attached to the torso of the force angel, and went around gracefully a few times. The arms that were originally sharp and incomprehensible were broken in an instant, and blood spurted out.
"Tifa, here." Ed muttered silently in his consciousness, then pulled away and quickly retreated.
The invisible torrent of extraterrestrial energy surged again, the ground beneath his feet trembled again, and the angel of force was bathed in splendid brilliance and gradually disappeared until it completely disappeared.
"Silver-white TurnA?!" Graham didn't even glance at the evaporating apostle, but just stared at the silver MS in the sky, "It's so beautiful, she's so beautiful! Doctor, can you let me take a closer look?"
"No." TurnA flew slowly into the distance. "Thank you for your hard work. Let Bright find someone to pick you up. Remember to ask him to post the video recording of your cockpit to the Internet."
After he finished speaking, Ed turned off the public frequency, refusing to listen to Graham's remarks like a crime reservist.
"Ed Edd!" Alice, who was sitting in his arms, twisted her body, with a "hurry up to praise me" expression, "Is the TurnA integrated with ELS technology super powerful? I repaired it! And TurnA is now part of my body!"
"Well, Alice is amazing!" Ed freed one hand and touched her head, and his arm accidentally rubbed against some hard object that was quite spectacular for Alice's physique, "Uh, Alice, it doesn't feel right."
"Hey, isn't it?" Alice looked down, "but I don't have the data, I figured it out myself. Well, I'll go back and ask stupid An Qi for the data."
"Let's not talk about that." Ed touched her little hand lightly, "How do you feel now? Do you feel consciously being invaded?"
"It's a little bit..." Alice raised her head, "but TurnA is very useful, Eddie just said the same, right? So Alice will work hard and try not to lose to herself!"
"The luckiest thing at the moment is that you come back in a hurry as soon as you have merged with ELS, otherwise..." Ed hugged Alice in fear, "For a creature of collective consciousness like ELS, quality equals consciousness. You will be unable to withstand a mere amount of mass, let alone a whole planet."
"But Alice wants to help Ed?" Alice said seriously, "Ed himself said that ELS is very important and related to your strategic layout. Alice wants to be useful, so Alice will Work hard!"
"The music player is actually quite useful." Ed pinched her cheek, and the touch here was correct, "Don't work hard, really, I will work hard."
After a while, TurnA landed on the tarmac of the Kilimanjaro base, and in addition to Lux and An Qi, even Bright was waiting below with a stern face. Ed jumped out of the cockpit and Alice hung on him hand and foot.
"Is this your plan?" Seeing Ed coming down, Bright asked Alice, who had a strange posture, "While killing all of our customers, while proving that you are a scumbag project, who will be there then? Come to buy? I have planned to replace the whole army with Jiegang, you know?!”
"The eighteenth floor can't be sold, isn't there another twenty-fourth floor?" Ed asked, "otherwise, why would I design two models?"
"Wait, the twenty-fourth floor is for this? That's what it is, that's what it is! Wonderful! Wonderful!" Bright patted Ed's shoulder with a smile, "You can talk to your family first, I won't I'm bothering you."
After speaking, he simply turned around and left, leaving the three of them looking at each other.
"By the way, Ed, there was a woman named Wang Liumei who was pestering us just now, and Lux finally got rid of her." An Qi stared at Ed, and said before Lux, "You look me in the eyes and answer me, do you have any thoughts about her?"
Ed looked at her big beautiful eyes and replied calmly, "No."
"Well, it's over." An Qi continued without a pause, "Then look me in the eyes and answer me again, do you have any thoughts on Roland?"
Alice left Ed and threw herself into An Qi's arms. She put her hands on the latter's chest mercilessly, and said something in her mouth: "The data is collected! So it is, so it is! Wonderful, wonderful!"
