Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 622: Phoenix at Dawn, in Response to the Light of the Heart (I)

"This is."

Looking at Siegfried who had completely turned into a residual shadow in front of him, bits of warmth splashed out from the two of them from time to time, and some even splashed on Aslan's face. As a veteran of hundreds of battles, he could naturally sense that this liquid was someone's blood.

After the fight started again, Siegfried used offense instead of defense. Due to the congenital defect in his arm span, he forced himself to close the distance between himself and his opponent at the cost of two wounds.

This almost-arm-colliding fighting style made Regret feel at a loss for a moment. Although the weapons of both sides had no length advantage, facing the close combat of the short Siegfried, the advantage of his long arms became a burden for a moment.

As the signal shielding was lifted, hundreds of millions of viewers watched this perhaps the bloodiest and most realistic real-life fight in human history. Because his body was sealed, Siegfried's height had always been below average. Although Hilde had promised that his height growth would be delayed by a few years compared to ordinary people, the 16-year-old Siegfried had just passed the passing line of meters, while his opponent, Regret, had a perfect height of nearly meters.

The 20-centimeter height difference brought more than just a disadvantage in arm span. Even though Siegfried's body had been trained to the extreme among his peers, apart from speed, he was at a disadvantage in absolute strength.

At the moment, the close combat is completely relying on the speed advantage to forcibly narrow the gap between the two bodies. Anyone with a discerning eye who has practiced fighting can see at a glance that Siegfried's energy consumption is almost twice that of Regrett. How long his body can maintain this high-consumption state becomes the key to the outcome of this battle.

At the same time, Berlin, Scandinavia, and Orb also received the live broadcast signal. The first one was Lux in Berlin. Looking at the figure stained with blood on the screen, Lux tightly grasped Hilda's hand beside her. The force was so great that even the eldest sister of the Tri-Star felt pain.

"Will Siegfried lose?"

Lux was not omniscient, and this extremely primitive hand-to-hand combat happened to be one of her blind spots in knowledge, so she could only turn her hopeful eyes to the military officer beside her. Hilda shook her head. She was only proficient in fighting and couldn't understand anything at all. In the end, it was ND who accepted Lux's already moist eyes.

"At the moment, the two sides are tied, but the actual situation is very unfavorable to Siegfried. If he cannot end the battle in a short time, he will definitely lose."

"Snapped!"

The sound of breaking glass echoed in the magnificent palace. Queen Winslet stood up angrily, but Rena on the side just silently fixed her eyes on Lars's lower abdomen. This action seemed to have the power of sealing, and finally made Lars sit back on the throne dejectedly.

But sitting down could not suppress Las's anger. Being good at reading minds, she finally found at this moment that she could not understand the evil of human hearts. Why did her husband save the entire earth, but some people still felt that heroes must be imprisoned in the system?

"Sir Lindemann!"

"Her Majesty the Queen."

"From now on, the Kingdom of Scandinavia will list Van Dysen as a hostile country and Luo Pan as a hostile organization. All cities under the Kingdom are prohibited from providing support and supplies to Luo Pan. The Guards will go to the Berlin front. The country will enter a state of war mobilization. WWK will unseal three Jegan production lines, completely close the border refugee passage, and stop humanitarian aid!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice."

"My man is covered in blood, and you still want me to think twice? I'll just quit being the queen!!!"

The series of orders were obviously not a spur-of-the-moment idea of ​​Las. The video broadcast only served as a fuse. Lindemann, who came in a hurry, glanced at Lena calmly. After finding that the chief military officer had no intention of persuading her, he weighed the current situation of the kingdom and its political allies in his mind, and finally chose to stand firmly on Las' side.

After all, there have been only a few queens who have fought on the battlefield throughout history, not to mention that Reina has a royal guard with MAX loyalty under her command.

In Orb, in the underground hangar of the Dawn Society, Hilde had looked towards the entrance for the third time. Erica beside him wanted to say something but didn't know where to start, until a golden figure appeared, and Erica rushed to meet him as if she had seen a savior.

"Cagalli, please persuade Hilde, she insists on driving the Heretic Sky no matter what."

"Sister, what do you say? Leave immediately?"

As a result, Representative Orb passed Erica directly and even had one foot on the elevator pedal.

"Why so slow?"

"I spent ten minutes handing over the representative work to Mina. Now I am free."

"She didn't stop you?"

"Just let me be a little more ruthless."

Seeing that the two of them had already sat in the cockpit of Heretic, Erica had no choice but to make her final struggle.

"Didn't they say that the New Dawn would be dismantled today? Why are you leaving me alone now?"

"I'll talk to you after I kill the people."

Before he finished speaking, the Dawn, which had been quietly awaiting its fate of being demolished, suddenly lit up with a blue light, and then, under the shocked gazes of the three people, it disappeared from the maintenance rack out of thin air.

Ten minutes ago, as Siegfried's breathing became disordered for the first time, Regrett's dagger pierced directly into his left shoulder, but he was not affected by the pain at all. He seized the moment of stiffness very calmly and also left a long blood mark on the opponent's body.

"Huh, the joints are not injured." Siegfried used one hand to control the shoulder muscles to lock the wound tightly. He knew very well that this method was only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure. As the fight between the two became more intense, a bigger wound would be torn sooner or later. But for now, this was the best way he could think of.

"Your strength will gradually fade as you lose blood. Otherwise, you should just go back to your tricks. You are no longer human anyway."

Even though the battle was extremely brutal, the fact was that Regret had never had the ability to kill Siegfried by force. As long as he used quantum leap, let alone killing him, he would most likely face the threat of being killed in return. Moreover, Stella and Aslan were standing next to him. No matter what, he would not be able to walk out of this room alive today.

But for some reason, although he had initially done it just for that illusory title of hero, Siegfried's eyes did not show any sign of retreating. His indifferent red pupils just stared straight at him, like a lone wolf patrolling his territory.

'I am. scared?'

"I'm human, that's all."

"Then let me see the limits of human beings!"

Before the photocopy man could savor his inner emotions, the third fight officially began. The brutality of the fight had already made soldiers like Aslan feel a little bit of pity. By now Siegfried had completely given up on defense, and he clung to Regret's arms tightly, constantly trying to find opportunities to trade injuries with his nimble steps.

“Why do we have to go to this extent?”

Silently glancing at Mayura beside him, Aslan believed that Siegfried must want to rescue his old subordinates, but he always felt that besides this reason, there seemed to be another layer of reason that he could not see through. It was this unknown reason that became the greatest support for Siegfried to continue fighting.

"The penetrating wound in the shoulder cannot be stopped."

He finally found an opportunity to stab the opponent's thigh with the dagger, but the price was a severe knee strike. The penetrating wound on his left shoulder that was locked by muscles also broke open in this knee strike. Red blood had covered half of his body. His red hair, red eyes, and red body formed a hellish picture in the live broadcast screen.

"You look a little tired, Mr. Hero."

"Killing you is enough."

Perhaps the knife wound on his thigh affected his movements. The photocopier did not take the opportunity to attack. Instead, he used words to delay time. At the same time, he tore off a piece of his clothes as a tourniquet and tied it tightly around his thigh.

"In fact, you should thank us villains. After all, without darkness, where would the light come from?"

"There is no distinction between light and darkness in this world!"

The fourth round of fighting began. This time, due to the worsening injuries of both sides, their movements slowed down at the same time. However, this loss of speed was particularly fatal to Siegfried. Relying on the suppression of his arm span and strength, the Copy Man forcibly broke through his defense and stabbed his left shoulder for the second time.

Seeing that Siegfried was holding on and refused to quantize, Aslan decided to rescue him. There was nothing shameful in losing, but if someone died, everything would be gone. However, before he could join the battle, Stella stretched out her hand to block him.

"believe him!"

He was knocked flying by a knee strike again. This time, it took Siegfried several seconds to steady himself. The continuous blood loss had completely drained his strength, and the retinal hemorrhage also made his vision slowly soaked in red.

"My joints are injured. I can't use my left hand. Am I going to lose?"

Seeing the Copy Man attacking again, Siegfried raised his uninjured right hand with difficulty. Regardless of whether he could block this attack or not, he knew that he had reached his limit. All that was left was for Aslan to come to the rescue or for him to use quantization to complete the counterattack.

"Yo, you're giving in so easily? That's not like you at all."

The familiar voice penetrated the constraints of time, and Siegfried vaguely felt that a figure was walking up to him.

"A fighter must use his heart to feel the flow of qi. This is a technique you invented."

"Master He"

"Remember the name of this move?"

"certainly."

Closing his eyes, Siegfried's world turned from bright red to pitch black, but in this endless darkness, he seemed to be able to feel the light of life of everyone, which was the purest soul of mankind, and the figure of Barry He also appeared in it.

"Mingjing! Shisui!"

The tip of the knife brushed against Siegfried's hair, and Regret looked at his chest in surprise. The dagger was completely stuck in it, and at the same time, it seemed that something in his heart was breaking.

"Ha...thanks, brother."
