Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1366 The cube of question
The philosophy advocated by the questioner is different from that of the civilization of God [Eos]. It is not a brutal dictatorship, but a senate composed of a group of supreme commanders who possess the truth. Every time they come into contact with other civilizations, they will send representatives to investigate, just like Kalureum Faul, asking questions to representatives of various civilizations and tilting the scales of the final judgment based on their answers.

The scale named "Truth" has ignorance on the right and danger on the left. When the final result appears, if the scale tilts to the left and the danger is greater than the ignorance, then the civilization is judged to be extremely dangerous and must be completely destroyed. If the scale tilts to the right and the ignorance is greater than the danger, then the civilization is judged to need the guidance of the questioner and a ruler like Kalureum Faul will be sent to it.

So... as Fisk Blackwood said, the questioner is not a good guy either. He says that he is completely different from God's civilization [Eos], but he still puts himself in a high position and regards the [Balance of Truth] as the ultimate truth. The factors that influence him are all based on the premise that the person being questioned is an ant, ignorant, and dangerous.

It's either destruction or being ruled. Is there really any difference between the questioner and the civilization of God [Eos]?

"Hehe, they are all birds of a feather." Liu Longma folded his hands and sneered. As expected, those aliens were no good.

"That's right, and they attacked us without any explanation at the beginning. They are not reasonable people, are they?" Ida Takamori's statement was agreed by all the visitors from the other world. When they first came to this world, they were basically attacked by the questioners, and they were all drones, with no intention of communicating at all.

“There are always people who think of themselves as gods sitting high in the sky, but they don’t know that no matter how high the throne is, there will come a day when it will be overturned.” Cruze had a gloomy smile on his face, but his calm tone was frightening, and people subconsciously moved away from him.

"So our goal is clear. We need to knock these self-righteous 'gods' off their pedestals and tell them that they have chosen the wrong opponent." Graham said passionately. Although Kalureum Faul aroused his strong interest, it was still a force at the level of the universe's hegemon, right? There must be some experts who act as a front, right?
"There are more problems than these." Yang Hui shook his head. If he only read Kalureum Faul's memory once, it was indeed as Graham said. But if he read it several times and studied it carefully, he would find some unusual places. "The questioner is indeed an enemy we must defeat, but... it's just one of them. The current situation on Earth is still complicated and critical. The base camp of the Hell Legion has not been found yet. The Overlord King and his followers are still wreaking havoc everywhere. The true identity and source of the invaders have not been figured out. Ulugaru, Pentacona and the Zanskar Empire are eyeing them covetously. There is also the Kingdom of Kaluud and the monsters of Sifiro in the other world..."

Listening to Yang Hui naming the currently confirmed hostile forces one by one, the crowd, which had originally relaxed a little, became nervous again. The huge rock pressing on their hearts had just lightened a little, but then pressed back down again.

Yes, they... still have so many enemies to face.

"Then Colonel Yang Hui, where is Ochidachea now?" Jian Tie also asked Yang Hui. This is a key person. The potential conflict on [Dreistliga] is caused by her. If she is not caught soon, let alone facing hostile forces from all sides, Drei Kreuz may very likely collapse internally.

"She can't go anywhere and can't do anything here." Yang Hui pointed to his head. "Speaking of this, Mabe, I'll give you a credit. A great credit."

"Eh? That's really great." Mabie had a teasing expression on her face and spoke of her surprise in a joking manner... Too perfunctory!
"However, you need to continue your research, whether it is the secret of [AOS] or the countermeasure of [Obedience Gene]. Although according to the known intelligence, Ochidachea is the last survivor of [Eos], no one knows whether there will be a second or third one... Therefore, the countermeasure of [Obedience Gene] must be completed. And [AOS], the intelligent system from [Eos], if it can be mass-produced and popularized, it will be upgraded to a higher level whether for military or civilian use."

"I understand, Colonel Yang Hui. I would have continued my research even if you hadn't told me." Mabie said with a smile. These two projects were her key areas of responsibility. She would do the same as before, and would continue until she had thoroughly researched them. In the field of research, she did not have the bad habit of giving up halfway.

"Well, you've worked hard. The countermeasures for the [Obedience Gene] no longer need to be carried out in secret. I will also find an opportunity to torture Ochidachea to see if I can get more information."

"That's a good feeling."

"Then...regarding Captain Sanye, the following punishment measures are now announced." Yang Hui glanced at Sanye Greywallai who was sitting in the first row.

"Wait! Colonel Yang Hui! Sanye is just..." Upon hearing that Sanye Graywallis was going to be punished, the former members of the 30th Non-commissioned Officer Academy could no longer sit still, including Aggie St. Claus, who was the most anxious.

"Have you forgotten my rules?" Yang Hui narrowed his eyes and glanced around, scaring everyone who were just excited and trembling all over. But when they thought of the severe punishment that Sanye Greywallai would face, everyone regained their courage.

"You can punish me if you want, but I can't just watch Sanye suffer and do nothing!" Aggie St. Claus looked straight at Yang Hui, facing the oppressive feeling like a storm.

“Don’t say that she was just influenced or that it’s none of her business. As the head of Drei Kreuz and the captain of the Drestliga, she is responsible for the lives of everyone in this unit and on this ship. No matter what her original intention was, she was influenced and bewitched without realizing it and took corresponding actions. That was wrong. Since she was wrong, she must be punished. Most of the people present are adults. They must pay the price for their mistakes. Everyone understands this.” Yang Hui said sternly to Aggie Saint Claus.

This is the army, not a gang. No one will talk about loyalty to you. It is not a family either. No one will talk about emotions with you. There are only rules and orders.

"But Sanye..."

"I'll say this for the last time. I don't like being interrupted when I'm speaking. I'll leave enough time for you to ask questions. Now... listen to me!" Yang Hui's eyes had become dangerous. This was not a temptation or a test, but he was really unhappy.

"...I understand." Aggie St. Claus understood the meaning of this sentence and will give you a chance to refute, but not now. Listen to him first, otherwise... don't blame him for being rude.

After Aggie St. Claus sat down obediently, Yang Hui looked around at the members of the 30th Officer Academy. Under Yang Hui's verbal threats and pressure, although they were unwilling, they still sat down obediently and waited for the opportunity to ask questions and argue.

However, immediately after Yang Hui announced the punishment for Sanye Greywallai, they were dumbfounded. That's it?
"Okay, now it's question time, does anyone have any questions?"

"..."

The scene was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone was looking at Edge St. Claus and the other members who graduated from the 30th Officer Academy. They couldn't hide their mocking and teasing expressions. Being stared at by everyone, Edge St. Claus and the other members who graduated from the 30th Officer Academy blushed with shame and buried their heads lower and lower, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Their toes were about to go through the soles of their shoes. They had dug out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment on the steel floor. It was truly humiliating.

"No?" Yang Hui's expression also became malicious, "Aiji." "No one called me...no one called me...no one called me..."

"Aggie St. Claus!"

"Here...here!" He was called for the second time and stood up awkwardly, which attracted even more attention.

"Is there a problem?"

"No...no more..." Aggie St. Claus shook his head repeatedly.

"Really do not have?"

"no!"

"Then why were you so impulsive just now?"

"I...I just...just thought..."

"What? Are you worried that your girlfriend will be brought to a military court? Or be expelled from the army?" Yang Hui teased.

"I'm not!"

"Colonel Yang Hui!" Not only Aggie St. Claus, but even Sanye Greywallis roared in shame and anger.

Originally, she was very moved by Aggie St. Claus's friendship with her. Even if it meant facing Yang Hui's anger, he would defend her and might even share the punishment with her. And...

Honestly, Clover Greywallis also had a good impression of Aggie St. Claus. He supported her regardless of the cost, and they fought side by side for many times, sharing life and death. It was impossible not to have some feelings for each other, but...

It's so embarrassing to say this in front of everyone! And we're not even boyfriend and girlfriend yet!

"As young people, you should be bolder. This is the advice given to you by someone who has been through it." Yang Hui teased the two shy people.

"Ask a question!" At this time, Graham suddenly raised his hand, which made Yang Hui's heart skip a beat.

"turn down."

"I have a question, too."

"Oh, yes, I also have a question I would like to consult."

They were all old coins, and Cruze and Char immediately guessed what Graham was going to ask. The atmosphere on the scene gradually became joyful, and Cruze and Char didn't mind adding fuel to the fire.

"Don't ask!" The caretaker said to Cruze and Char with a cold face, "You don't know about them? You must be holding back something good!"
"Tsk." X2
The two of them spat, it was a pity that they didn't achieve their goal, but... after all the bad times have come, the people around them gently asked them, "Mr. Cruze/Char, can you talk to us after the meeting is over?"

Well, very good. Under the careful teaching of Yang Hui, Char, Amuro and others, they completed the trial and finally became qualified melon eaters. They can now skillfully find melons to eat by themselves.

"Of course." X2
Cruze and Char's mouths were once again filled with playful smiles.

"Ahem, that's enough." Yang Hui clapped his hands, asking everyone to stop playing around. There was one last thing to be done in this meeting. "The last thing is about [Drestriga], the 30th Officer Academy, and... Agency A..."

As soon as the three words "Agency" came out, Aggie St. Claus's body suddenly became stiff, and then began to tremble. For him, these three words were an indelible past and a demon in his heart that he could not overcome.

Yang Hui glanced at Aggie St. Claus and said nothing more. Instead, he made way for the central position, fully revealing the large screen. “I asked the person who knows the most to explain it to everyone, Fisk Blackwood.”
