Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 694 Election Day (V)
"GN particle dispersion rate is good, electronic signal blockade in progress."

"We need to act quickly. We must not only intercept the signal, but also conduct reverse tracking. Now is the time when those bureaucrats are at their most panicked. The information sent out at this time has a very high intelligence value."

Not far from the explosion range of the orbital elevator, a red MA was quietly suspended in the air. With the help of the GN stealth field and the highly chaotic scene, no one noticed this MA without a number for a while.

The Lane was a compromise product that Hilde developed after reverse-engineering the Archangel Gundam III in order to cooperate with the Mina Project. In the specially modified cockpit, besides herself, the current head of the Aurora Society, Erica Simmons, also sat.

"The first batch of signals has been intercepted. Let me see why the explosion occurred from above? Wasn't it agreed that only the base would be blown up? Sure enough, this was an attack with collusion between insiders and outsiders."

Erica's hands had left a trail of afterimages on the keyboard. Her hand speed, which had been suppressed because of fear of being seen as an alien, had been pushed to the limit. Behind her, Hilde was constantly adjusting the parameters of the electronic barrier in SEED state. Under her operation, the entire Solomon Islands had completely become an information island. Except for the built-in channels of the battleship and the team, even Mina had lost the channel to contact the outside world.

“Can you identify the sender?”

"Give me a moment. I need to locate the room precisely according to the layout of the conference room."

"Then I will do the reverse tracking. Remember to pay attention to the situation below. If Londe Bell cannot control the situation, send Canard down to support him."

"Hey, it's really hard to do two things at once."

At the same time, there was some panic in the bridge of Neo Argama, but Kuratis was a captain who had seen big scenes, and before departure, Mina had discussed with her various plans to deal with accidents, so she quickly calmed down and entered combat status.

"Arthur! Where did the attack come from?"

"The radar showed that the first explosion occurred in the stratosphere, but the second explosion was on the ground." Arthur was halfway through his speech when he found CIC Abby making a gesture to him. After he saw the message Abby forwarded, he continued: "The base garrison sent a message that an armed riot occurred in the third hangar!"

"This ship will take off immediately, and Nicol and Tiago will start the suppression operation at the same time. How is the preparation of the goddess of justice?"

"The GN furnace has been ignited and is ready to attack at any time."

"The MS unit is under the command of Gist. This is East Asia's traditional sphere of influence. He is the one who is most familiar with the current situation."

Amid the fallen debris of the building, the Neo Agama had completed the emergency take-off procedure. Considering that the conditions for ejection were no longer available on site, all the MS pilots had experienced the same treatment as Siegfried in his early years, that is, they had the ejection rack but could not use it, and could only rely on their backpacks to fly out of the ejection port one by one.

"In addition to us, there are a total of 12 combat units with independent numbers in the entire base. Six of them will follow the participants to the low-orbit station, including Takito and Troy. I believe they will protect Lady Mina. As for you, Thiago, and I will block the rebels' advance route first. Nicol will use the MA form to quickly meet up with Michal and Lina and then come find us!"

After taking command of the team, Gist immediately got into the role. Originally, he and the Goddess of Justice were supposed to be assigned to the Nile-class ship which had a complete solar furnace ignition device. However, considering that this security mission was within the traditional sphere of influence in East Asia, the Neo Yagama's hangar specially installed a temporary ignition device for the Goddess of Justice, and the scale was only enough to start one solar furnace.

"Why do these people like to make trouble at various ceremonies?" "Because it is easier to stir up public opinion. Once the momentum is formed, even the original PLANT will be forced into the vortex of militarism, not to mention the People's Revolutionary League, which has an unstable foundation but a larger population. I'll go find Michal first, you be careful."

After Nicol finished speaking, he directly switched the Z Gundam to MA form. At the same time, there were more and more building debris in the air. The Z Gundam flexibly shuttled through the debris and disappeared in front of Thiago in a short while.

"According to the garrison's intelligence, they have found traces of a nuclear bomb. We must identify them when we open fire."

"Nuclear bomb?"

Before Thiago could carefully discern his friend's subtext, Gist's news once again made him feel like he was falling into an ice cellar. Two nuclear attacks in three years had caused more than 90% of the adjusters to suffer from PTSD, not to mention the examples of Thiago and Aslan who had lost their loved ones. After gripping the joystick tightly, Thiago's eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness.

"These damn bastards"

For security reasons, the People's Revolutionary League arranged elite teams to serve as escorts for various political groups. However, due to the suddenness of the incident, the teams lacked an effective center for command, so after the attack, almost all teams, including Londo Bell, fought on their own.

To make matters worse, the rebels on the ground immediately destroyed the orbital elevator's departure port, which was not only the headquarters for the base's garrison, but also the location of the cargo elevator for transporting MS. Now that the port was destroyed, for a while even Nicol's Z Gundam could not reach the stratosphere on its own power without the addition of boosters.

No one knew what the current situation at the meeting was like, because even the best maintenance team could not install a set of boosters for the MS within a few minutes, so when Gist and Tiago arrived at the third hangar, what they saw was a chaotic battle where it was impossible to distinguish between friend and foe.

"They are all friendly force identification codes. There's no point in fighting them!"

Looking at the green lock box that filled the entire screen, Tiago felt the blood vessels in his forehead throbbing. It was obvious that this was a complete civil strife within the People's Revolutionary League.

Originally, as a second-generation congressman, he viewed this situation as a great gift from God to PLANT, but when he thought of the intelligence that the rebels possessed nuclear weapons, Tiago found that he could not be happy at all.

However, just when Thiago didn't know what to do, the goddess of justice suddenly accelerated and flew to the center of the battlefield, and then Gist's voice was heard in all the MS channels.

"I am Gister Evans from the 31st Mobile Infantry Brigade in East Asia. Please send me the identification code. We cannot use the orbital elevator no matter what."

Before Gist could finish his words, a beam of light hit the back of the Goddess of Justice. It was not until he dodged urgently that he saw the very familiar emblem on the chest of the MS that was shooting at him.

"Captain Farrell Bird of Paradise. Why."
