Start a Core Pod

  Chapter 588 Target Locking

  After returning to his room, Duanmu Huai immediately contacted Audrey.

   "Audrey, tell Ekoto to send me a Luna."

   "Hey? Mr. Knight, is it finally our turn?"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's order, An was very excited. After all... she has been watching dramas all this time, and she almost got tired of watching them. It's just that An is very obedient, knowing that the power of the court cannot be used casually, but since Duanmuhuai has started mobilizing warships, does it mean that Duanmuhuai seems to have found the enemy?

   "It's about the same, but it's still in the observation stage, and a battleship is just in case."

   "Then who is our enemy?"

   "The Archangel."

"…………Why???"

   I have to say that Ann, Mary, and Lumière were all taken aback when they heard Duanmuhuai's answer. Only Augis sat beside her with a blank expression, calmly looking at her book.

   "The Archangel is... the one that appeared on the battlefield before?"

   "Why are they? Didn't they say they want to stop the war?"

   "Listen up, little girls."

  Hearing the girls' curious inquiries, Duanmu Huai laughed.

"Since you are working in the trial court, then I have to tell you one thing - in the trial court, you have to be careful, not those idiots who are crazy and shouting to destroy the world all day long, but be more careful about this kind of idiot. An upright gentleman who talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality, freedom, peace and justice."

   "This... Mr. Duanmu, do you mean that the other party is just using this slogan as a cover, but actually has another purpose?"

  Mary asked curiously—well, I have to say that this is indeed in line with the thinking of a writer.

   "That's part of it, but the trickier part is the guys who actually believe the slogans."

"I do not quite understand."

   Lumière shook his head.

   "If the other party really believes in freedom, peace and justice, isn't that a good thing?"

   "Then, what kind of liberty, what kind of peace, and what kind of justice?"

   Duanmuhuai sneered.

   "Isn't it just to stop the war? I tell you I can do it too."

   "Huh? What are you going to do?"

   "It's very simple. First blow up the earth, then blow up the plant, and kill both sides. Wouldn't there be no war?"

   "Uh... this is too..."

   "Don't be too condescending, just say that the war has stopped it!"

  “………”

   Facing Duanmuhuai's words, everyone was speechless for a while.

   Well, although there is a bit of that, but in the end, the war was indeed prevented. After all... all were killed, who fought?

  A hundred thousand Yin soldiers?

   "So you see, it's that simple."

   Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"Goodness, justice, peace, these are all ambiguous concepts. World peace is a good thing, but how can we achieve world peace? Fight for justice, so what is your so-called justice? These are all Other than the person speaking, other people don’t understand it at all. Even sometimes, goodness itself is the greatest evil.”

   Speaking of this, Duanmuhuai laughed.

"You see, it's like many times when two countries go to war, one side loses the other and the other wins and it's over. In the end, people come to mediate and do some kind of humanitarian aid, and say that the war should not hurt civilians, etc. , As a result, the war that could have ended in one month dragged on for a year. How many people died during this period? Only God knows. The longer the war, the more people died. Then your so-called humanitarianism What's the point of rescue? The same is true for the Archangel. They may really believe that they can stop the war, but in fact their arrival has intensified the intensity of the war, and more people died."

   "Ah, I see."

  Hearing this, An seemed to suddenly realize, and clapped his hands suddenly.

   "That's why, Mister Knight, you always say that the goal of the Inquisition is to protect human beings, not the messenger of justice, right?"

   "That's right, children can be taught."

   Duanmuhuai nodded.

"Protecting human beings is a very clear goal. We only need to see whether we have eliminated the enemies that threaten human beings, and whether human beings have survived, and we will know whether our goals have been achieved. Guarding, destroying, conquering...clear goals bring clear results .In turn, the ambiguous goals of fighting for justice, fighting for peace, and fighting for freedom will only serve as a fuse to prolong the war."

   Having said this, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.

  “As for those love, peace and justice, what’s the use of shouting slogans? In the final analysis, it’s like driving in a thick fog and falling off a cliff carefully to die.”

In fact, among the enemies of the Tribunal, there are many similar "braves" or "men of justice". As mentioned before, the player once encountered a rebellion on a planet. She is the Holy Maiden of the Church of Justice. Both sides are fighting for their own beliefs. In the end, justice has won, and then the saint is directly tied to the stake by the player and burned to death.

  The reason is very simple. The saint is also a **** of the evil god. As long as the two sides fight, the evil **** will win, and it doesn't need to care about which side wins next. As for whether the saint herself has a good motive, it doesn't make sense, the trial court only looks at the result.

  Those who tearfully confess "I didn't expect this, I just thought it was the right thing to do" guys have only a dead end before the hammer of the Inquisition.

Therefore, Duanmuhuai didn't care whether the group of Archangel really believed in that stupid belief, or whether they just used it as a cover to achieve their ulterior motives. The fact is that the appearance of the Archangel led to the end of the war. Prolongation and the meaningless death of human beings—this is different from the conquest of each other by two forces, and it is already considered a heresy.

   Therefore, from the moment they were deemed heretics by the Inquisition, the fate of the Archangel's party was already doomed.

   "Boom boom boom."

   At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then Ann Marie walked in.

   "Ah, I'm sorry to bother you all, but have you seen Miss Setsuko?"

   "Setsuko? No."

   "Did you go for a walk?"

   After all, the Minerva is currently being repaired in a secret ZAFT stronghold, and there is no other place to go, right?

   "I don't know, but her mecha is not in the hangar either, no one knows where she went... Everyone is a little worried..."

   "Lumière, investigate."

"clear."

  Lumière nodded, then reached out and tapped on the terminal for a while.

   "I found it. Ms. Setsuko seems to have received a message from someone and then left."

"who?"

   "A man named Toby...he said he had something important to tell Ms. Setsuko, and asked her to go alone."

"Why?!"

  Hearing this, Duanmu Huai and the others didn't respond, but An Marie was taken aback.

"How can it be?"

   "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

   "Mr. Toby came to this world with Ms. Setsuko, one of her companions, but... in the previous battle, he was already dead! Even the body exploded!"

   "So what's this? A letter from a ghost?"

   "......Please don't, stop kidding......"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, An Mali's complexion turned pale. She really didn't expect that this magician was afraid of ghosts.

   "In short, go and see the situation."

  While talking, Duanmu Huai stood up.

   Anyway, idle is idle, right?

   At the same time, in the snow field, the battle also came to an end.

   "Boom!"

  The azure blue body fell heavily to the ground, and Setsuko Ohara staggered out of the broken body, gasping for breath.

   "Why... why did it become like this."

  Looking at the broken body in front of him, Setsuko's eyes were dull. Not long ago, Setsuko received a message from Toby, her companion who was supposed to die. The other party claimed that she had something very important to tell her, and hoped that she could go to the designated place alone. Although Setsuko also suspected that there was a problem, she still drove the mech to the designated place just in case.

As a result, when Kyoko came to this snowy field, he was surrounded by a group of dark drones—Kyoko was no stranger to these mechas, and they had been chasing after them since they came to this world. kill yourself. And his captain and Toby were also killed in the battle with these mechs!

   And now, they are targeting themselves!

  Although the enemy was outnumbered, Setsuko did not escape, but drove the machine to meet him, and wiped out the black mech army. But in the end, Setsuko still encountered a yellow mech, which was evenly matched.

   Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, suddenly, Toby driving his mecha suddenly appeared and repelled the yellow mecha.

To be honest, Jiezi who saw this scene was very surprised. You must know that Toby died a long time ago. She watched the other party die with her own eyes, and the rest of Toby's mecha had already been integrated into her own. In the mech, then, what is going on with this Toby?

   Didn't he die back then?

   Just when Setsuko was excited about reuniting with her companion, what she didn't expect was that the other party directly attacked her! Unexpectedly, Setsuko, who was stabbed by one of his own people, was hit by surprise, and the body was shattered. It was not until this time that the body disguised as Toby regained its original appearance.

   "That, that is..."

  Looking at the pitch-black mecha in front of her, Setsuko's face was pale, she was very familiar with this mecha, it was the man's mecha that killed the captain and Toby before!

   "Crack!"

  At the same time, the hatch of the black mecha opened, and immediately after, a figure jumped out of it and walked up to Setsuko. It was a black-haired young man, he stared at Setsuko coldly, without any warmth in his eyes.

   "You, who are you?"

   "I'm Asakim, Dovin."

   "It's you who... killed the captain and Toby...! Why did you do that!"

"Why?"

  Hearing Setsuko's question, Asakim sneered and stretched out his hand, grabbed Setsuko's hair, and forced her to look up at him.

   "You want to know my purpose? It's very simple, I just want you to suffer for it. Come on, dedicate your tears of despair to me!"

  Assakim suddenly raised his right hand and slapped Setsuko in the face, knocking him down to the ground.

   "First, I want to engrave pain and fear on your body..."

"no, do not want……!"

   "Desperate, Setsuko, let your heart be completely covered with sorrow! I want you to always remember the sorrow and pain of having an important person taken away!"

   While speaking, Asagem stretched out his hand again, tore off Setsuko's uniform, and pinned the girl to the ground.

"No, don't, ah ah ah!! Who will save me! Rescue me ...!"

   "Hahahahahaha!"

   Hearing the desperate cry of the girl who fell in front of him, Asagem burst out laughing.

   "Keep screaming, this blessed cry! Pain, sigh, and then fall with unbearable sorrow! Ahahahaha... Woo!"

  However, Asakim's laughter also stopped abruptly at this moment, and immediately after, blood sprayed from his chest and sprinkled on the girl's face.

   "Woo... ah..."

Assakim's eyes widened. The smiling face that had been distorted because of complacency just now was full of doubts at the moment. He lowered his head and looked towards his chest - only to see a huge blade with a chainsaw on it. It went through his body like this.

   At the same time, another voice came from behind Asakim.

   "Wow, as a man, you actually do such a shameless thing, I think you are tired of living, then... just die!"

   "Om———!"

  Accompanied by Duanmuhuai's voice, Assakim who had been penetrated was suddenly lifted up by him. The next moment, the chainsaw sword spun wildly, quickly cutting open Assakim's flesh and bones!

   "AHHHHHHHHHH!!"

  Under the severe pain, Assakim screamed loudly, and then Duanmuhuai raised his chainsaw sword high, just like a woodcutter holding an ax that cuts wood in his hand, and slammed it hard against the ground!

"boom!"

   "Woo... ah..."

  At this moment, Assakim's body has been completely split from the middle, and only the head and neck are still connected. Ordinary people would have died long ago, but at this moment, Asakim was still vomiting blood, but he had no intention of dying at all. He raised his head and stared at Duanmuhuai fiercely.

   "It's useless, you don't want to kill me, I'm immortal... Immortal...!"

   "Oh, I don't think so."

  Duanmuhuai raised the chainsaw sword again, this time - a black flame rose from the sword.

   "To be honest, I have seen many idiots like you who will die just because you can't. Then let me bring you the demise you expect-get ready to accept the doomed death!"

  The next moment, the chainsaw sword slashed down again, directly piercing Asagem's head, splitting that little white face in the middle, and at this moment, Asagem's expression finally changed.

   "This, what kind of power is this? What kind of flame is this?"

   "Despair, suffer, your soul will be thrown into the flames of the Tribunal to become fuel, and your life will end here!"

   "No, no, no——!"

  Assakim struggled desperately, twisting his body, but this had no effect. The rotating chain saw directly split his head and completely cut his body open. The next moment, pitch-black flames erupted instantly, completely covering Asakim's body in the blink of an eye.

   At the same time, Asakim's pitch-black body, which was parked not far away, also exploded.

   "Boom——!"

  Accompanied by the eruption and burning of black flames, the pitch-black body and its owner were completely swallowed.

   "It's done. I didn't expect that I could still see such an 18R plot when I came here."

  Duanmuhuai withdrew his chainsaw sword and looked at Jiezi who fell not far away, his clothes were torn, his body was stained with blood, and he had passed out.

   "...Forget it, let's take her back first."
