Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 671 Those People in the Past (End)
"I shot"

The noisy voices accompanied by the glaring red became an almost eternal scene frozen in Shin Asuka's mind. Mayu was held hostage and Las was in danger. It could be said that ever since fate slapped the mutant to death, Shin's brain had been acting almost entirely on instinct, so he hadn't come to his senses until Frey was hit by a bullet.

At the same time, Las, who was protected by the Guards behind him, glanced at the Asuka siblings not far away without leaving a trace. Although he was not a reformer himself, with his talent for mind reading, Las clearly felt that at that moment the Asuka siblings had actually reached a state of synchronization of thinking.

In other words, the real murderous intent did not come entirely from him, the influence from Mayu was the most important reason. From Stella's experience, Russ already knew that Atlantic's means of training and expanding people could be described as inhuman. Although Mayu had tried her best to avoid talking about her experience of serving in Phantom Pain after temporarily living in Orb, no one except Kotori would naively regard her as the former Mayu Aska.

"Well"

The sudden pain interrupted Las's thinking. Las knelt down in the snow with his hands on his stomach. Las immediately realized that he seemed to be about to give birth.

Since Lena was still in charge of cleaning up the battlefield, although the probability was low, she also had to prevent the possibility of a second wave of attacks. In addition, as a civilian, Lindmann did not appear at the battle scene, so for a while the entire scene inevitably seemed a little chaotic due to the lack of command.

"Medical team! Where is the medical team!"

At the critical moment, Stella became the most unexpected backbone. She first supported Las, and then shouted for the medical team to intervene while having Mayu taken away.

As a person who was also born as an enhanced human, she knew very well that Mayu's past dark memories had been completely stimulated, so continuing to stay at the scene would not only be of no help but also increase the possibility of other accidents. It would be more appropriate to let Zhen accompany her to a quiet place to rest first.

"It's a month earlier than the due date."

Stella also knew very well that Las's original due date was not now, and this situation should not have occurred based on the adjustment of a person's physique. Now this result can only prove that in a sense, this attack did affect Las' body.

"Excuse me, those two people over there"

Just as Stella helped Russ into the medical bay, an officer suddenly found her.

As a member of the palace guard, Lars's premature birth was almost the best possible outcome among the worst possible outcomes. Now that Reina and Lindemann were away, and the queen herself was wearing an oxygen mask in the medical cabin, he looked around and realized that he could only ask Stella about the subsequent arrangements for Kira.

"Have someone collect the body first, and then keep the man under guard."

Although she didn't understand politics, Stella and Mayu had stayed with Lars as personal guards from the beginning, so she knew very well that Scandinavia and Lux ​​far away in Berlin had reached a tacit agreement, that is, Kira must be kept to prevent him from being involved in Van Dyson's conspiracy. Even Frey was originally part of this plan, but now it seems that the body of the copy man caused her to be tampered with from the beginning, which led to her failure and such a tragedy.

"Captain, there's an urgent call from the border defense forces!"

But before Stella could finish her words, the situation took another sharp turn for the worse. According to the garrison's report, at the same time that Frey launched the raid, tens of thousands of mutants suddenly emerged from the huge refugee camp on the border. Even though the border guards organized MS to intercept them at the first opportunity, the weather conditions were too bad and the enemy numbers were too large, so a large number of mutants eventually rushed into the kingdom.

Not only that, even Stella knew what an out-of-control border meant. It meant that cities and villages close to the border were directly exposed to the threat of monsters. As an eyewitness who had fought these man-made monsters at close range, Stella knew very well that unless an interception line could be organized as quickly as a professional army, ordinary people would only end up being slaughtered if they relied solely on their military skills, even if they were equipped with hot weapons.

"Issue an emergency evacuation notice to the border. All people should be relocated to large cities first. At the same time, have the reserve forces immediately establish defense circles in major cities. No matter how strong the monsters are, they are only flesh and blood. As long as there is enough firepower, they can still be killed."

When Lindemann arrived at the scene, he saw Stella giving orders to the troops continuously. In terms of subordinate relations, she and Mayu were only the queen's guards and did not have the right to directly order the kingdom's army. Therefore, several officers did not leave after receiving the order. It was not until Lindemann nodded that they saluted one by one and hurriedly left the palace.

"Your Majesty." "Sister Las is about to give birth. The medical team is currently evaluating her and the baby's condition, so I think it's best not to disturb her unless necessary."

At the same time, Luna's Pulse Gundam also landed on the ground. After settling his sister, Shin returned to Stella. The two looked at each other tacitly and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

The Stella who appeared before them was almost a completely different person. Having been with Siegfried for many years, she not only learned how to kill people, but also the ability to stabilize people's hearts at critical moments was the most important advantage she learned from her brother.

"I'm afraid your Majesty will have to make the decision on this matter."

After saying this with a serious expression, Lindemann quickly walked to Las' medical cabin, leaned over and whispered a few words to him. Those who were closer clearly saw Las nod, then Lindemann called the commander of the guard and finally made a decision that surprised everyone.

"Prepare a Jegan with his weapons and equipment removed, and then let him go."

The 'he' Lindemann mentioned was naturally Kira. Apart from him, Stella was the only one who knew the entire negotiation process between Lars and Frey.

Therefore, she knew very well that at this critical moment, Lindemann had no motive and no position to play any "false imperial decree" game. Lars' nod just now could basically be considered to have made a decision on this result. Based on this reason, although Stella could not understand it in her heart, she did not take any action to stop it.

Soon, a standard Jegan that had obviously been violently dismantled was sent to the palace. Even though even the Vulcan cannon had two holes dug out, in order to prevent the strongest adjuster from doing anything irrational, Shin and Luna returned to their respective MSs and locked the fire control radar firmly on Jegan.

"drop"

In the cockpit of the Destiny Gundam Spec II, Shin looked at the communication request on the screen, and subconsciously pressed the connect button, before he could recover from the shock of shooting Frey with his own hands. Then a restrained and trembling voice sounded in his ears.

"Why. Why did you kill her?"

"I"

"I had already pushed her away, and she was clearly no longer a threat, so why did you have to pull the trigger? Why!!!"

Kira's tone was more like a mechanical self-questioning than a question, and this illogical statement had absolutely no basis to stand on.

Legally speaking, it was Frey who initiated the terrorist attack. Even if Mayu and Stella had not fought to their lives, once Queen Winslet died here, Mina would have issued an order to quell the rebellion before the next day.

At that time, the First Space Fleet would be forced to let go of the reins on PLANT's neck and enter low orbit to start airdropping into the old East Asian territory. Then, both fighters like Aslan and researchers with political identities like Senator Amalfi would face the problem of re-choosing their sides.

Therefore, Kira's question is totally untenable. At that time, shooting was almost the only option for Shin Asuka. Maybe if his shooting skills were good enough, he could choose to injure instead of killing him. However, this kind of discussion is a useless effort based on the result.

But the truth is the truth, his brain circuit would never think of these complicated logical problems, facing Kira's unreasonable questioning, he was stunned for a few seconds, and immediately gave his answer.

"Because I also have a world that I want to protect."
