Kamen Rider, the Mission Must Be Fulfilled!

Chapter 96: Beyond the Atlantic

Staring at the Aegis standing quietly in the hangar, Aslan frowned slightly, and the halo of incandescent lamps flowed in his eyes as warm as lilies of the valley, gradually losing focus.

The unactivated Aegis looked huge and comfortable, and even the off-white alloy armor exuded an elegant solemnity.The tall existence made of metal just stood there motionless, faintly revealing the majesty as a weapon of war.

Ever since he got the Aegis, Aslan has never had the opportunity to examine this machine seriously like now.

Unknowingly, compared with ZAFT's Jean series, this Aegis has spent much more time with Aslan on the battlefield.

Difficult problems experienced, also more frequently.

While these tough questions, most come from the same person.

"Empty...justice..."

The simple four-character name is full of the delicate emotions of the teenager.

It is not uncommon for Aslan to meet idealists who sing the praises of peace.

Aslan has long been familiar with the hard-working peacemakers who advocate understanding.

But it was the first time Aslan had seen a warrior like Kujo Justice since he was born.

Not pacifist dreamers hiding behind the Great Wall of Flesh.

Nor is it a person who sits at the round table and relies on the power of speech to guide public opinion.

Empty justice is a real man who is in the center of the battle, while betting on his own life, and at the same time has shown him his ideals more than once.

The natural person and the adjuster are all human beings.

This war is absolutely wrong.

That man used his words and deeds wholeheartedly to tell this point to every fighter who fought against him.

Win without killing.

If you escape, you will not be forced.

Every battle seems to be so easy, with the foolish and straightforward style that others see as letting the tiger go back to the mountain, treating everyone who wields a sword at him.

Zero death rate - in every battle against Kongtiao Justice and Assault, the Kruzer team's final casualty statistics are this data.

Retiring in a big defeat with zero deaths in battle is simply impossible in the past.

The reason is also quite simple and easy to understand: whether it is a natural person or an adjuster, everyone is fighting with their lives to kill each other.

Fighting and war are like a huge but invisible meat grinder. Only when minced meat and blood gush out continuously can the meat grinder continue to run.

Kill others and be killed by others.

Like an endless long spiral staircase, from top to bottom, it goes straight into the darkness that doesn't know when it will end.

Whether it is a natural person or an adjuster, they are just one of the participants in this strange marathon, coughing up blood, while staggering towards the dark end.

Either fall down and become a new step of the spiral staircase.

Or go down, until the end of who knows when.

So no one has much leeway in this life-based game.

Whether it is positive strength or intrigue, use whatever you can, just to be able to run one step further than others, just to turn into a new stepping stone a little later than others.

If you hesitate, you will lose.

This is the war between the natural person and the adjuster, and it is also the war in Aslan's concept.

Even his own father...

The war in the mind of that PLANT defense commissioner, Patrick Sala.

If you don't take the first step, you will be hurt.

If you are not stronger, you will lose more.

This competition between the natural person and the adjuster seems to last until one party disappears.

A marathon without No.2.

but……

[Whether it is a natural person or an adjuster, we are all human beings.And this dispute between humans and humans, I think it will end soon. 】

When Aslan heard that the Supreme Council decided to deal with the giant creatures first and shelve the decision on war against natural persons, the words of that man were resoundingly loud in his mind.

Aslan once thought that this war that made him more and more shaken would finally usher in a period of rest.

Even if it was short, at least it would give him time to sort himself out.

What followed was a surge of curiosity about Kong Tiao Zhengyi.

Did that man expect this at such an early age?

However, before he could recover from this doubt, the wheels of events roared and whirled, pushing him into the core of anxiety again.

"Aslan?"

"..."

"A. S. Lan?"

"Um... huh? Ah, sorry, Nicole."

The slightly louder voice finally brought back Aslan's sight. Putting aside the mess of thoughts in his head for the time being, Aslan smiled apologetically at his petite colleague: "I'm distracted."

Shaking his head slightly, Nicole took a serious look at Aslan's face, and said softly with some worry: "Are you worried about something? Aslan."

"No, it's just..."

Aslan subconsciously wanted to deny it.

Regretted that the truce did not come, worried about the upcoming dispute, and even shaken by what the enemy pilot had said.

As a ZAFT soldier, none of this is allowed.

What's more, as [Sara].

"Is it because you came to Earth for the first time, and you are not used to it?"

"No, there is nothing abnormal about the body."

"exhausted?"

Aslan shook his head.

"That's what you're thinking about, isn't it?"

"..."

Aslan unconsciously shifted his gaze away from the boy with soft appearance and gentle temperament, and landed on Aegis again, without replying again.

Seeing Aslan like this, Nicole moved closer and stood a little closer to Aslan, looking at Thunder in the hangar.

"It's because you don't understand why this operation is going on, right?"

Hearing this, Aslan's eyes widened slightly, and he was about to deny it, but Nicole took a slap in a rare way, and continued his words first.

"Actually, I don't understand. Although the [Great Stag Beetle] and the [Giant of Flame] died together, the [Great Stag Beetle] is also likely to be the culprit that caused the crash of the Valkyrie satellite. But there are obviously [Daredevil] and [Beetle]. 】Such a precedent exists, why should we abandon the local garrison at this time and turn to attack the earth..."

Leaning against the window sill, Nicole's gaze was far away, just like Aslan's just gradually losing focus.

"Obviously, the war can be stopped at this time... no, it should be stopped at this time."

"This one……"

Aslan was at a loss for words.

Because when he learned that the Supreme Council agreed to this plan, he also had such thoughts at that moment.

Why, at this time?

Ps:

first change

Chapter 97: For Whom the Evening Bell Tolls?

"...You also heard what Captain Kruse said at the combat meeting before."

Even though he agreed with Nicole's words in his heart, Aslan still did not choose to respond positively: "[Rex] is currently located in the Atlantic Ocean area belonging to the Earth Army, and the other party has launched a campaign against [Rex]'s dormant area. The tight perimeter cordon isolates most of our detection methods."

Holding on to the window sill, Aslan frowned slightly.

"If the Earth Army uses [Rex] to attack our coastline near the Atlantic Ocean, there will be little chance of winning with our current armed forces here."

Speaking of this, Aslan seemed to be a little hesitant about what to say next, rubbed the metal window sill with his fingertips, and said in a deep voice: "That's why we want to make sure that [Rex] is still in the enemy's sea area." When it is time, let this trouble not come to us."

"What if..."

Nicole murmured, with an indelible sense of confusion half hidden in his expression.

Aslan's complexion was not much different.

When Kruse spoke to the Supreme Council, he also once again became a witness with [battle insiders] and [actual combatants], and reported to the Council together.

The only difference is that there is one more person in the process of admonishment this time.

Lacus Klein.

The daughter of Speaker Higgle Klein, a popular idol whose singing voice resounds through PLANT, and one of the central figures in this huge biological incident.

She is also Aslan's fiancée.

With so many halo labels in one body, this beautiful girl with a beautiful personality, a gentle personality and an elegant style has always played the enemy of Kruse and Aslan in that report meeting.

In other words, it is the enemy of all the main fighters.

Regarding Kruse's remarks [the giant creatures in the critical PLANT universe have been wiped out, but the threat that exists on the earth still exists, and this danger should be eradicated before the other party strikes], Lacus Clay With a capable, decisive and unhurried attitude, he put forward refutation arguments that are enough to make every congressman think deeply.

First, no one can be sure that the giant creature attack was just this one time, there are several giant creature precedents, and the tragedies of Valkyrie and Heliopolis are just around the corner. This argument was immediately agreed by several congressmen.
