Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 683: Mina's Three Axe
The earliest information about the beam cloak can be traced back to the time when Isaac was attacked on Earth. However, no one at that time thought that this epoch-making equipment would become a near-fatal vulnerability in the compass in the near future.

Among them, Siegfried's two attacks became the crucial breaking points. One was to kill Daniel, and the other was to try to kill Litlard. He perfectly used the human fear of death to force the two to activate their beam cloaks in succession.

Not only that, after Siegfried fell into a coma, Hilde had already thrown away her moral bottom line. She used George Gray's brain that was recovered from New Home to successfully copy some memory fragments from Liu Shenqiang's body. A considerable part of them was exactly the process of Liu Shenqiang and Finas attacking New Home and transforming Artemis into a satellite microwave cannon.

Of course, since the memory fragments were extracted by unconventional means, and it is well known that Liu Shenqiang had died in Rio a long time ago, these memory fragments cannot serve as direct evidence. But just because Mina can't use them doesn't mean that others can't use them. It just so happens that Tianren is very suitable to make use of the surplus value of these black materials.

The right of independent investigation, this powerful weapon that was granted to Tianren at the beginning of its establishment, finally began to show its value. However, even Aslan himself did not expect that he would be the first person to use this right with justification.

When he first learned of this right, Aslan could not believe his eyes. Simply put, with this privilege, the Amaru officially became an armed force without a direct superior. You must know that with FAITH's great power, he still had to obey the Speaker. But now, Aslan is the only superior of the Amaru. As long as he wants and can convince Shin Asuka and Mu, he can even investigate Mina.

So after receiving the information sent by Hilde, Aslan found Mina with some uncertainty. He once suspected that this right was just a "medal of honor" that belonged exclusively to Siegfried, but Mina just lightly said "You are the commander of the gods" and left Aslan aside.

No matter what kind of psychological struggle Aslan went through before deciding to use this right, as Mina tore off the last veil of shame, the new regime of the People's Revolutionary League also ushered in the most precarious moment since its establishment.

As the Minister of Finance who was targeted by Mina, he did not choose to surrender. Instead, he used a "heartfelt" performance to try to tell the world how miserable he was after losing his daughter. At the same time, Van Dyson's side also "disclosed" the source of the samples. According to the information described in the report, those selected for the photocopy samples were all death row prisoners who committed serious crimes in the refugee camps.

At the same time, the discussion about whether death row inmates have human rights has become a hot topic of public discussion under the guidance of some interested parties.

Topics including but not limited to 'Should death row inmates maintain their independent personalities when they die or should they be recycled as waste materials and photocopied into other people', and 'Technology, like weapons, has no distinction between good and evil' instantly filled the Earth and PLANT.

After all, adjusted humans are also human beings, and their relatives may pass away. What's more, adjusted humans preserve genetic samples far better than natural humans on Earth. So when it comes to the impact of photocopying technology, PLANT has absolutely no possibility of being independent of the world.

Faced with the public opinion war that had temporarily entered a stalemate, Mina threw out his second trump card, which was that the cost of using photocopiers was even higher than genetic adjustment. Simply put, this was a special technology that could only satisfy a small number of powerful people. If 150 billion of the 20 billion natural persons could still reach the threshold of genetic adjustment through their own efforts, then only tens of thousands of people could enjoy the photocopier technology at most.

It is not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality of wealth. This is an extremely simple truth, but these seven words have become an unsolvable problem throughout the CE world and even human history. The high cost of gene adjustment technology directly led to the fact that only a small number of privileged classes could enjoy this benefit.

Handsome, excellent in learning ability, and even naturally immune to most of the incurable diseases of humans, the 6000 million adjusters on PLANT have become the "Earth Gods" step by step with this innate aura. This natural gap is even more desperate than the gap between the rich and the poor in the AD era. The LOGOS born from this has profited from the wars that have been provoked by the racial conflicts. So far, the CE world has been completely torn apart. If it weren't for the appearance of the Reformer, this tear would have continued endlessly. Lacus and Kira could forcibly seal this crack with their own abilities, but the couple at the top of the food chain will eventually grow old. If the adjusters solve the fertility problem in the future, it would be a natural thing for Patrick to appear.

The technology of photocopying people is more demanding than genetic adjustment in terms of both cost and conditions. Putting aside the financial constraints, a single sample of death row prisoners cannot meet the needs of all mankind. At the same time, Mina's question leads to a terrifying hypothesis. Once the number of samples is insufficient, who will be "killed to take credit" next?

As the former head of the Sahak family, Mina knew very well what the greatest weakness in the human heart was. She only needed to make most people understand that the proliferation of photocopying technology would not only fail to bring them any benefits, but would make the already fragile human society slide further into the abyss of turmoil.

Originally, the transformation technology of the transformation body could provide the natural human group with a third choice at a relatively low cost. Although the artificially created transformation body is still inferior to the adjustment human in many abilities, brain quantum waves are a great help to humans in moving towards the deep universe. At the same time, Hilde can also extend the life of the transformation body through nanorobots, and to some extent, can complement the fragile adjustment human.

At the same time, Mina also dropped the final bomb, which was the Mars immigration plan. With the help of the technical team of Senator Amalfi, the large spiral laser tandem compression photon thermonuclear fusion reactor has seen the dawn of success. Combined with the laser acceleration system used by PLANT on the reborn Gundam, the flight between the Earth and Mars can be shortened to within half a month to one month.

At the same time, in the L4 space domain, the flagship of the First Fleet, the Orb Lion, welcomed a transport ship sent from Granada. Jiang Kelly, the designated recipient, arrived at the hangar at the reminder of Bakilulu. Lily, who was directing the maintenance team to unload the cargo, saw the real owner coming and waved to him to come quickly.

"Are you completely changing your job to become a transport captain?"

"It's all that Canard's fault. He keeps saying that I'm too weak and shouldn't go to the front. Let's not talk about that. Come and receive the new machine that Hilde prepared for you."

"But my FAZZ is still usable?"

"Oh, Admiral, your machine has been outdated for a long time. Considering the importance of your fleet, Hilde said that she developed this machine despite strong psychological discomfort."

"The Destroyer Power Angel Gundam, plus two Wolf Squadrons. I hope you can follow your heart and use these powers properly, Major General Jiang Kelly!"
