Magic world

However, despite the participation of Ito Cheng, in the face of sheer numbers, the advantage of one or two aircrafts could not change the outcome of the entire war. Therefore, after several hours of fighting, Orb suddenly issued a separate order to the Archangel. The order to retreat ordered him to retreat to the mass accelerator Kaguya, preparing to ascend into the universe together with Orb's Kusanagi.

"Leave Orb? Are you saying you want us to escape? Master Uzumi." In the command room of the Kaguya Mass Accelerator, Malu asked in surprise as he looked at Uzumi in front of him.

"You already know very well that Orb's fall is only a matter of time." Uzmi said in a deep voice.

"Father, what did you say?" Cagalli said in disbelief.

"People have taken refuge, and the enemy has received reinforcements. We will bear the next attack." Uzmi turned to look at Cagalli and whispered to everyone.

"But even if Orb is lost, there is still something that cannot be lost." Uzumi looked at Malu again, Ito Cheng, Mu and the helmsman of the Archangel behind him and said, "Behind the Earth Army is the leader of Blue Cosmos. Murtagh Azrael's figure, and the plant has now fallen into the hands of Patrick Sala, who advocates that the adjuster is the new race. If this continues, the world will become one of two factions that do not recognize each other. In this endless war, how about your future become like this? If you can see another future, hold up the only spark left here and move towards that goal."

"Although this is a very difficult road, I hope you can understand, Malu-Lamias." Uzmi finally said to Malu warmly.

"We firmly believe that although the spark is small, it will never be extinguished." Ma Liu glanced at Ito Cheng and Mu behind him and said seriously.

"Then get ready." Uzumi said.

"Yes." Ma Liu agreed, and took Ito Cheng, Mu and the helmsman back to the Archangel to get ready. As for the following battle, Ito Cheng and Mu no longer need to participate.

Just as the Archangel was preparing nervously, the three new Earth Army Gundams that had previously returned to the fleet to resupply due to exhaustion of energy appeared on the battlefield again and flew rapidly towards Kaguya.

"Captain Lamias, leave quickly." At the same time, Uzmi's voice rang in the bridge.

"I know." Ma Liu said in a crisp voice with a determined expression, and then Unicom said Kira, who was already sitting in the Ziyou Gundam, "Kira."

"I'll take cover, and the Archangel will leave soon." Kira immediately said.

"Raise the bow 20 degrees and prepare the positron city-breaking cannon." After receiving Kira's reply, the Archangel's engine immediately started at full speed, pushing the Archangel to fly towards the sky. At the same time, Ma sat in the captain's seat. Liu Shense shouted and ordered seriously, "Shoot!"

As Ma Liu finished speaking, two scarlet beams of light speed immediately shot out from the front of the Archangel's legs and rushed towards the sky. Then, as if some seal was broken, a circular positron diffusion interference immediately ejected from the front of the Archangel's legs. Appearing in the sky, it enveloped the Archangel like an ion channel, helping the Archangel escape from the constraints of gravity and accelerate toward the atmosphere.

Then, not long after the Archangel ascended to high altitude, the Cao Ti, whose front end was wrapped in heat-resistant armor, also accelerated away from the mass accelerator and broke away towards the universe under the protection of the two Gundams Zi You and Justice.

And the moment the Kusanagi broke away from the mass accelerator, a bright white light that was more dazzling than the sun suddenly lit up from the center of Orb, and then a continuous violent explosion was generated inside Orb, destroying Orb's body. The Zhengfu Building, Shuguangsha's factory, and Kaguya, the quality accelerator that the United are eager to get.

…

One day and one night later, on June 18, Kusanagi, which stayed in geosynchronous orbit, completed the assembly operation with other components of Kusanagi that Orb had previously stored in orbit. Later, Malu, Ito Cheng and Mu took a small engineering inspection ship to the Kusanagi and discussed the next action arrangements with Kisaka, the actual person in charge of the Kusanagi.

"Welcome to the Kusanagi." Gnakuna of the Kusanagi, Kisaka, who was wearing an Orb military uniform, said to the three Malu who came out of the inspection ship.

"Thank you." Ma Liu thanked him. Then he left Gnaku with Kisaka and walked like a bridge.

"The facilities here are so complete." During the march, Mu looked at what he saw along the way and sighed.

"The Kusanagi has been used as a communication ship with the colonial satellite Heliopolis for a long time. Although the mobile suit's operating system and weapons are equipped, it is not as complete as the Archangel." Saka introduced.

"Divide it into five parts and only use the central part to communicate." Mu said, "This is a very efficient method."

Soon people arrived at the bridge of the Kusanagi.

"It looks like the Archangel." Ma Liu exclaimed as he looked at the environment inside the bridge.

"The Archangel is like it, because their mothers are from the Dawn Society." Kisaka smiled at Malu after hearing this, then turned to look at the woman sitting in front of the workbench with her back to a few people and said "Can you release the map of the universe?"

"Yes." Then the woman's voice spoke.

"Director Erica Simmons?" Mu shouted in surprise.

"Hello, Major. Because you have to use M1 in an unfamiliar space, you can't do it without me." Erica greeted Mu with a smile, but when she glanced at Ito Cheng, her eyes flashed. A complex expression flashed, and then Erica turned around again, pressed the button on the operating table, and then a map of the universe appeared on the big screen in front of Kissaka.

"Now we are here." Kisaka landed in front of the map and looked at one of the big red dots and said, "As you can see, L5 is Plant and L3 is Artemis, but these two places are not suitable for us to go there, so The only place we can go now is probably here.”

"Going to the L4 colonial satellite group?" Malu said in surprise.

"Although the Kusanagi and Archangel currently have no problems with supplies, they are not inexhaustible, especially fresh water, which will soon become an urgent need." Kisaka explained. At this time, Cagalli, Aslan, and Kira, both in Dawn Society uniforms and in Earth Army uniforms, came to the bridge and listened to Kissaka's story.

"L4's colonial satellite group was destroyed at the beginning of the war, and was subsequently abandoned one after another. No one exists now, but it can still be used as a water source."

"It always brings back painful memories." Malu said softly.

"It doesn't matter, this is different from Junius 7." Ito Cheng on the side patted Maru's shoulder and smiled. Then Maru remembered that Ito Cheng was someone who had participated in the offensive and defensive battles of the L4 satellite group. In terms of understanding of L4, no one present could match him.

"There are still several functioning colonial satellites on L4." At this moment, Aslan suddenly said, "A long time ago, because there was intelligence that a group could use it as a base, Zaft once investigated that area. .Although there are no residents left, there should still be a few colonial satellites with equipment still operating.”

"As for the suspicious gang... I probably know something about it." Ito Cheng said thoughtfully, and then said to everyone who looked at him, "I guess it's the group of space mercenaries and recyclers, and maybe intelligence dealers, here at L4 It was their gathering place before it was destroyed. But don’t worry too much, those guys are very smart and will not attack us for no reason, so going to the L4 satellite group is a good choice."

"Then it's decided." Kira smiled at Cagalli.

"Yeah." Cagalli agreed.

"But, is this really okay with you?". Now that the next path has been decided, Mu, who is no longer worried, suddenly turned to look at Aslan and said, "Of course it's not just you, there is another person as well. I also saw the battle in Orb. This was forced by the situation at that time. , although I don’t care about the military uniform you are wearing, but depending on the situation, we may fight against zaft in the future. This is different from when we were in Orb. Are you aware of this? And you are Patrick Sala’s son."

"It doesn't matter whose son he is. Aslan..." Cagalli said angrily.

"It is much more painful for a soldier to leave his army than you think. Moreover, the leader there is still his father. If he does not firmly believe in his righteousness, he will not be able to go to the battlefield. This is a very important turning point. Is it so simple? ? And unlike Kira, he is a regular soldier of Zaft." Mu said seriously to Cagalli, then stared at Aslan and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, if we want to fight together, I hope you can believe it. Passed. Is it okay? How about it?"

"In Orb...no, in Plant, or on Earth, I thought a lot about what I saw and heard, whether it was wrong or right, what I knew and what I didn't know. I haven't figured it out yet, it's just... The world I long for is the same as everyone else, and I feel this way now." After a moment of silence, Aslan looked up at Mu Shense and said seriously.

"You are really strong." After hearing Aslan's words, Mu immediately returned to his usual self and said frivolously, "It's different from Kira Yamato."

"I've been like this since I was a child." Kira was stunned at first, then looked at Aslan and smiled.

"What Orb gave us is huge." Mu said softly. "With these two battleships alone, to be honest, it is almost impossible, but our determination remains unchanged."

"Actually, if you are really determined, it is not impossible to achieve it." As soon as Mu finished speaking, Ito Cheng suddenly spoke. In an instant, everyone's eyes, including Erica Simmons's, were focused on him again, looking at him seriously and expectantly, waiting for him to tell.
