Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1367: Putting Life into the Gun Chamber

"Commodore Fisk!"
The first group of members who joined the Drestligar had all come into contact with Fisk Blackwood, although only through remote imaging and communication. They were all deeply impressed by this strong and serious general, especially the students of the 30th Officer Academy and Aggie St. Claus.

The students of the 30th Officer Academy were on this bizarre warship because of Fisk Blackwood, and the 30th Officer Academy was also founded by Fisk Blackwood, who was their nominal president.

And Edge Saint Claus... He came from Agency A, which was also established by Fisk Blackwood. Its purpose was to deal with Ochidacea and more threats from alien planets. Edge Saint Claus was one of them. Life in Agency A... was his lifelong nightmare. Even now, with so many companions fighting side by side, he often dreamed of his previous hellish life when he went to bed at night.

"Is that the Federal Army brigadier general who was under house arrest?" Although the others had never come into contact with Fisk Blackwood, they had all browsed his information. Fisk Blackwood's information was not concealed, but these people did not have a very good impression of him. After all, the information recorded that the reason for his house arrest was concealing important intelligence and he was suspected of being a traitor, and traitors... were unwelcome anywhere.

Suddenly, the big screen in the conference room lit up, and Fisk Blackwood's face appeared in front of everyone.

"It's really Brigadier General Fisk!"
Everyone was surprised. They knew that Fisk Blackwood was under house arrest, but they thought it was just an excuse. After all, there is a big difference between house arrest and imprisonment. After a long time, when they saw Fisk Blackwood again, apart from looking older and a little thinner, there was no change. He was still serious, resolute and iron-blooded.

"Everyone, long time no see, and... nice to meet you. I'm Fisk Blackwood."

"Long time no see, Brigadier General Fisk." Sanye Greywalle and the others stood up and saluted Fisk Blackwood. No matter what Fisk Blackwood had been through, he was their guide. It was he who led them onto this path, which was the right path they truly liked and were willing to work hard for. Moreover...

They noticed that Fisk Blackwood was wearing the uniform of the Federal Army at this time, and his rank of brigadier general had not changed, which meant that he had been reinstated.

"Brigadier General... hehe." Fisk Blackwood sighed. It had been a long time since he heard someone call him that. "Okay, everyone, now I will explain to you the significance of the existence of Agency A and the 30th NCO Academy, as well as... all my plans."

Hearing this, Sanye Greywallis and others sat down with serious expressions, while Aggie St. Claus was in a complicated and conflicted mood, because compared with the 30th Officer Academy, Agency A was a complete hell.

Then, Fisk Blackwood recounted in detail how he had carried out a special mission, discovered the legacy of the divine civilization [Eos], and came into contact with and was controlled by Ochidachia. Then, he told the story of how he restrained the influence of the dominant fluctuations on the [Obedience Gene] and began to slowly develop his own power in secret, pretending to find suitable pawns for Ochidachia, but secretly cultivating the power of resistance.

"So... all of this was part of your plan, Brigadier General? Including the fact that we were influenced and even manipulated by Ochidachea, and... our contact with the questioner." Mitsuye Greywallai had a gloomy face, and so did the other members of the 30th Officer Academy. After all, no one liked to be treated as a pawn that could be discarded at any time.

"Yes, I will not argue with that." Fisk Blackwood replied calmly, "Except Captain Mitsuba, no one has ever come into contact with Ochidacea, and no one understands the feelings and despair I went through at that time. So I know very well that if we cannot defeat Ochidacea and free humans from the control of the [Obedience Gene], humans will have no future. We must do it at all costs."

"You bastard! So me, Yazi! And the others! What are we to you? Parts that can be discarded at any time? What do you think of our lives?" Aggie Saint Claus couldn't help it, he stood up and cursed at Fisk Blackwood on the screen.

"...I said, I don't ask for your understanding and forgiveness. I do this for the earth and for mankind. As long as this goal can be achieved, anyone can be sacrificed, including me." Fisk Blackwood looked directly into Aggie Saint Claus's angry gaze, his eyes firm and unwavering.

"Tsk! One day, I will make you, old man, apologize in front of everyone!" After cursing again, Aggie St. Claus threw the rules out of his mind in a rage and left the meeting room angrily. He really didn't want to see that face that he wanted to tear apart again for a moment.

"Aiji!"
Aggie St. Claus suddenly stood up and left. His companions were very worried about his current condition and looked at Yang Hui, hoping that they would be allowed to follow and watch over Aggie St. Claus.

"Hu Suo, Al, Masaki, go." Amid the pleading gazes, Yang Hui named three people. Hu Suo and Aggie St. Claus were the most familiar with each other. They had been training and fighting as partners from the very beginning. Longsheng's optimism and Al's childlike innocence could also best comfort Aggie St. Claus.

To be honest... at this time, the most suitable person should be Sanye Greywallis. When a man is hurt, the person who can give him the most comfort and warmth is only his beloved other half.

However, Mitsuha Greywallis is the captain of [Drestriga]... Oh, no, she is the acting captain now. She has to stay and wait for the meeting to end. This is her duty and she also has to set an example for others.

"Understood!" X3
The three people who were named immediately stood up and chased after him. After the door closed, the conference room fell silent again.

"Brigadier General Fisk, please continue." Yang Hui said expressionlessly. Although he could not agree with Fisk Blackwood's approach, he could not rebuke him because Fisk Blackwood was different from those ambitious and agitators who talked big but were actually cowardly and incompetent.

Yang Hui knew that Fisk Blackwood really didn't care about his own sacrifice. In his plan, he had put his life on the line from the beginning. If he failed, he would die. "No problem, Colonel Yang Hui." Fisk Blackwood nodded and continued, "In order to observe your status, I have arranged a spy. On the one hand, he will keep an eye on you all the time, record the influence of Ochidachea on you and report to me; on the other hand, he will also pay attention to people other than you, to see if there are spies from other forces mixed in. From the beginning, Drei Kreuz was the last hope of mankind in my plan."

"Spy!"
Everyone was shocked. There was actually a spy among them?
"Lieutenant Captain Reynold, you completed your mission very well." Fisk Blackwood praised. Although he was caught not long after the plan began, Reynold Harting insisted on carrying out the spy mission after losing contact with him, and did not immediately rebel after everything was revealed. This was worthy of praise.

"It's my job, Commodore Fisk." Reynold Harding cursed in his heart, why did he expose his identity in front of everyone! Even if the mission is over, can't you just treat me as an ordinary deputy captain?

"Let me explain this matter." If Reynold Harting was exposed at this time, no matter what the ultimate goal was, as a spy, he would also be met with everyone's ill will. Fisk Blackwood was not qualified to explain anything for Reynold Harting. After all, he was the one who arranged the people, and he didn't care much about everyone's life safety.

But Yang Hui was different. First of all, Reynold Harding was not a spy arranged by him. Secondly, Yang Hui's status and prestige in everyone's hearts were far higher than Fisk Blackwood.

"At the beginning, we noticed Vice Captain Reynold's identity as a spy, but due to the lack of intelligence, I also discovered the problem of [Drestriga] at that time, so Reynold Harding became my man and continued to perform observation missions. The reporting object also changed from Brigadier General Fisk to me. Sure enough, Captain Mitsuha, each of you has changed to a greater or lesser extent, and has behaved strangely, which has also made a huge contribution to our further pursuit of Ochidachia and control of him." Yang Hui explained to everyone, and as he expected, the originally unfriendly eyes softened a lot.

"As for the rest... there's not much to say. I'm under house arrest by the Federation Army, and the plan can't be carried out. But... I'm very glad, Colonel Yang Hui, that you are a completely different force from Eos and the Questioner. I'm also very grateful for the help you've provided to the Earth and humanity."

Although Fisk Blackwood did not trust Yang Hui and his men, he would give him a copy of any battle reports and news related to the Promise Legion. This was also one of the means Cruze used to shake him.

"We are also from Earth, and we are human beings." Yang Hui replied calmly.

"…Thank you very much."

"Is there anything else you want to say to everyone?" Yang Hui asked Fisk Blackwood.

"Nothing."

"Okay, Rebil will tell you where you are going. I hope you can continue to serve the Earth Federation Army and fight for the peace of Earth and mankind."

"Yes."

After the call ended, Yang Hui returned to the center of the podium and looked at the people below: "Anything else you want to ask?"

"..."

For a moment, everyone's expressions were complicated. There were too many messages received at once and it was a bit difficult to make sense of them.

"I feel like... I have a lot of questions to ask, but because there are so many, I don't know where to start." Jay from the maintenance team complained while scratching his head.

"Then don't ask." Yang Hui had a teasing smile on his face, "Any more questions?"

"I……"

"Okay! Since there are no more questions, the meeting is over and dismissed!"

"Hey! Are you kidding me? Colonel Yang Hui! Wait a minute! Are you really leaving? "
