Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 625 Bird Catching (Part )

"It looks like something went wrong. It turns out that being powerful doesn't come without a price."

In a factory in downtown Rio, looking at the golden light spot roaming around on the monitor, Liu Shenqiang curled his lips and found that the other party seemed to have started an indiscriminate attack. He also roughly guessed that the person sitting inside was Siegfried. The golden machine has always been a special model for Siegfried's family. Leaving aside the two heads of state who could not make it to South America, the remaining correct answer was almost obvious.

"Oh, a civil war between gods and humans. I remember the blue machine belonged to the former ZAFT red-shirted guy, who was also Siegfried's little fanboy. His arm was broken in this encounter. It doesn't look like he was acting."

As the observer of the compass, Liu Shenqiang did not want to get involved in the civil war between the gods and humans. His task was to monitor the mental state of the two photocopies to ensure that they could complete the task smoothly, and he was also responsible for pressing the detonation button at the appropriate time.

As a result, the "NT burst" before Siegfried lost consciousness allowed Regret and Mayura to break free from mental control, so Liu Shenqiang detonated the bomb without hesitation. When Phoenix appeared, he thought that Orb's reinforcements had arrived in time, so he no longer expected to achieve much success.

As a result, Phoenix killed three Asimas of the People's Revolutionary League without saying a word, and then killed the 1.5 Gundam and the Regeneration Gundam that came to support. This unexpected surprise also made Liu Shenqiang, who was about to leave, return to the cockpit of the Black Knight again. Wearing a phantom particle cloak, he was constantly recording the combat data of Tianren.

"He is just a lowly combat adjuster. He dared to attack Orphie. He is asking for his own death."

The news that Orfe had been kicked by Siegfried in Berlin and had crippled his offspring naturally reached Artemis. As Tuners, this was no less than a spiritual kick that cut off their offspring. Even though they had updated Siegfried's personal information countless times, in the records left by Durandal, Siegfried was always just the predecessor of Kira Yamato.

For the Tuners, how could they, who didn't even take Kira seriously, look down on a substandard product? The most direct consequence of this situation where the information was refreshed but the brain couldn't keep up was that Orphie's mentality was completely broken.

As for the rest of the Tuners, Ingrid had her thoughts stamped open by Lux, Griffin and Lidrad had their confidence shattered by the battle, and only Liu Shenqiang, who had never been educated in the universe, was still staring at the golden figure with malicious eyes.

"Why are you coming towards me?"

If he was still performing the mission with the mentality of an ordinary observer before, then after the internal strife between the gods and humans, even Liu Shenqiang himself did not notice that several malicious thoughts involuntarily emerged in his mind. But just as these malicious thoughts had just sprouted, Phoenix, who had seized the GN Fang, suddenly locked Liu Shenqiang's position dozens of kilometers away, and then dropped the Regeneration Gundam and rushed over at full speed.

"I almost thought I was finished."

In the cockpit of the Reborn Gundam, Mu opened the mask and lowered the temperature by a few degrees. Just now, when he found that the GN Fang was out of his control, Endymion's Eagle, who had been on the battlefield for many years, felt the fear of death for the first time. He never wanted to experience the feeling that his life and death were just a matter of a thought from his opponent.

Starting from 71 AD, Mu was extremely lucky to become a comrade-in-arms of Kira and Siegfried, which also meant that in most battles, two of the three mythical gods were his teammates.

Apart from being beaten up by his cheap father in Yakin, even during the period when Siegfried was absent from the lunar orbit battle, Mu only had a brief fight with Aslan and there was no actual life-and-death battle.

"Uncle Mu, why did Siegfried run away?"

The 1.5 Gundam with a broken arm for no reason approached Mu. Seeing his silly look, Mu could only sigh, "Blindly chasing stars is not good." However, he was also very curious why Phoenix let him and Xiaoniao go. Logically speaking, the fate of Yashima should be a lesson for them.

"Zhen, the radar shows that a Compass MS appeared in Rio, in the direction where Siegfried is heading. The captain asked you to go over and take a look. Aslan is also on his way to rendezvous." No one, including Zhen, was too surprised that Compass appeared here. The Rio terrorist attack was obviously a stepping stone for Compass. Now that the Executive Mansion has been bombed, if Compass has not appeared yet, it might as well go back to selling sweet potatoes. So after waiting for Immortal Justice to arrive, the three Celestial Beings also formed a defensive formation and flew cautiously towards the coordinates given by Meiling.

"Meiling, have you contacted Honjima?"

Arthrun, who returned to the MS, did not feel relieved at all. He had seen all of Phoenix's performance. The best machine among the three was the Regeneration Gundam, and the remaining Immortal Justice and 1.5 Gundam were transitional models. Arthrun made a rough estimate of the combat power ratio and found in despair that they could not even shoot it down, let alone capture it.

"Cagallie's Heretic Sky will arrive in Rio in 15 minutes, and Hilde is on it."

After calculating the time, Aslan realized that the two men must have left Orb at the beginning of the live broadcast. Now he could only hope that the omnipotent Hilde could come up with a perfect solution. No matter what, the MS must be stopped first.

"The Fallen Angel Gundam has also departed from the Heavenly Pillar. It is expected to arrive over Rio in 8 minutes to rendezvous with you. Athrun, pay attention to the communication channel."

“It would be great if a bunch of people could solve the problem.”

It's not that he doesn't trust the ability of his teammates, but based on Phoenix's strange speed before, Aslan didn't think this was a task that could be completed by just piling up people, especially when the three planes arrived above a factory, the Black Knight who escaped from the factory in a panic further confirmed Aslan's guess.

The beam cloak that he was so proud of did not provide any defensive function at all. Phoenix tore the beam cloak in two in the first wave of attack. The speed was so fast that Liu Shenqiang could not see clearly whether the opponent used any weapons.

Seeing that Tianren's three-plane team had arrived at the edge of the battlefield, Liu Shenqiang suddenly remembered that there was an internal strife a few seconds ago. Why could Phoenix find his position so accurately? Without time to think about it, driven by the instinct of survival, he pushed the joystick hard and flew straight towards the direction of the 1.5 Gundam.

"Want to use us as shields?"

Aslan's expression tensed, but before he could give the order, he found that Phoenix's speed was much faster than the Black Knight's. So with a flash of golden light, Phoenix grabbed the Black Knight's head from behind, and then used one hand to make a knife and directly inserted it into the opponent's thruster.

"Am I going to die?"

There was another sharp sound of metal twisting, and the Black Knight's limbs were forcibly torn off by the Phoenix, leaving only a bare torso connected to the head exposed to the whole world. Liu Shenqiang's mind suddenly emerged the famous battle in which Siegfried crushed Disaster to death four years ago.

Liu Shenqiang pried open the cockpit door with one hand, and the dazzling sunlight blocked his eyes. Before he could shout out, a cold mechanical hand surrounded his body, and then pulled hard to free himself from the Black Knight who was no longer in human form. For the first time, Liu Shenqiang saw the face of Phoenix, which was very different from that of ordinary MS.

"I'm a friendly army! A friendly army! You can't kill me!!!"
