Gundam, Iron Banner

"Lord Paptimas needs me!"

Sarah's words, like a conditional launch, immediately burned Katz's heart, causing him to roar, "That man is just using your talent!"

"How could you understand Lord Paptimas' kindness to me! He is the generous man who dug me, a little soldier, out of the Earth Federation Army!"

"How can there be such a thing!"

Katz scolded, "Titans is an elite group, and it also treats humans who are not related and do not live on the earth differently. You stay in that kind of place, but you are treated as a disposable Just treat it as rubbish!"

Katz himself was astonished to be able to say these words.He understands that he is definitely not the type who is good at words, maybe this is the edification he has received from getting along with his predecessors?

His words silenced Sarah.

After this period of confinement, Sarah also figured out something.If the adult he respected really cared about him, he should have sent someone to rescue him long ago, right?Maybe it's just like what Katz said, maybe I'm just a disposable garbage...

But even so, she wanted to go back to Jupiter Rees.

Because Sarah couldn't forget the humiliation that Youbai had done to her that day.She knew very well that as long as she continued to stay on Agamma, even for a moment, she would not be able to forget the shadow brought about by being pushed down naked.

Chapter 250 Seven: Anguish

Regrettably, what Katz said from the bottom of his heart resulted in a long silence.

How can a young woman with a blinded mind be so persuasive?Sarah has keenly understood that it is dangerous for her to let the other party go on.A girl's heart will automatically defend herself for this intuition, like a shellfish with its double shell tightly closed.

In order to break free from the shackles of "Metas", she immediately poured out all the remaining Vulcan ammunition in the head of the machine.

Ordinary mobile suits may not be severely damaged when they are attacked by the Vulcan cannon, but this one driven by Katz is different. As the verification machine of Project Z, in order to realize the deformation mechanism, the armor coverage rate of "Metas" is relatively low, and the defense Ability is quite weak.

Sarah felt that God was blessing her at this moment, and the Vulcan Cannon hit "Metas" with a shuttle, and hit several joints in succession.The defenseless "Metas" was hit hard, and sparks burst out from various critical parts.

She seized the opportunity to shake off the mobile suit that was entangled with her, and fled far away in one swift motion.

Looking at the receding figure of "Rem" in front of him, Katz didn't even have the thought of catching up.At the moment when the opponent shot, he felt the killing intent hidden deep in Sarah's heart.

What came opposite was the strong sense of jealousy rising in Katz's own heart.

Even Katz himself can't figure it out, is he jealous of Sirocco's ability to get the girl's love, or is he jealous of Sarah's ability to easily pull the trigger?

As a young man who has just set foot on the battlefield, he has not yet adjusted himself to the mindset of a warrior.Even though he had already made up his mind not to trust that woman anymore, when he talked with him, he couldn't help but soften his heart and wanted her to change her ways.

It had nothing to do with love, he just hoped that young girls like Sarah would not be deceived and end up wasting their lives in vain.This is the last innocence of a teenager.

However, no matter how beautiful the wish is, there will be a day when you wake up.

After being attacked by the opponent, Katz finally realized helplessly that the girl named Sarah could no longer return to the ordinary world.

She was pulled down by the quagmire of war, and she was powerless to save her.

In the damaged cockpit, Katz gritted his teeth to correct the locked position of the front sight, and locked the attack target on the center behind the "Rem".

No matter how pitiful she was, Sarah had stayed on Agamma for so long after all, so it wouldn't be surprising if she got any information.Once she escapes back to Titans, there will be a risk of information leakage

Therefore, there is only one thing left that Katz can do.

He bit his lip, and pressed the launch button of the beam gun——

I don't know if she got a warning in her heart, or it was purely out of the pity in the young girl's heart, Sarah, who was about to leave the battlefield, was full of hesitation.

"The attack just now shouldn't have hurt him, right? Although he is an enemy, Katz is a gentle child..."

The girl noticed the inexplicable anxiety in her heart, and felt a suffocating feeling of being unable to breathe.

In order to get rid of this pain, she looked back, wanting to see the situation of "Metas", but just in time saw a beam of light shooting towards her cockpit.

Sarah tried her best to dodge, however, the light beam came steadily and ruthlessly, and finally penetrated the fuselage of "Rem".

Then, "Rem" fell into a state of silence, and there was no more movement.

The universe does not have the material to transmit sound, so even if the body explodes, there cannot be any sound, not to mention that the mobile suit that Sarah is riding on has not been pierced through the power furnace.

But what is uncomfortable is that the electronic synthesis sound from the system still sounded in the cockpit of "Metas", which is used to simulate the slight explosion sound after shooting down the enemy plane.

But this voice sounds inexplicably cruel to Katz today, like the voice of God lingering in his ears, making him remember that he once killed the girl he liked with his own hands.

Katz looked at the half-damaged machine floating in the distance, and felt that his heart was as broken as "Rem".Depressedly, he took off his helmet and threw it aside, taking a deep breath, but the hasty movements gave him a feeling of suffocation, as if someone had strangled his neck.

"Forgive me, Sarah...!"

In the lonely cockpit, Kaz Kobayashi gasped in pain.

……

The battle gradually came to an end.

Due to the outstanding performance of You Bai and others on the frontal battlefield, the Titans troops were hit hard; run.On the whole, Aogu can be said to have reaped a big victory.

But relatively, August is not without losses.For example, Berto Tiga was shot by someone on the way to fight the fire, and he is still in first aid.

After hearing the news, You Bai rushed to the infirmary without even having time to introduce the Black Otter team to other members of the ship.

Fortunately, Wes Murphy is a mature and stable person. To a certain extent, he and Brad and Cobatro can chat quite well, and he resolved the embarrassing situation by himself.

As surrender personnel, the three of Murphy must of course be monitored and observed to ensure that there is no problem before they can be absorbed into Oguri, just like Emma at the time.In this regard, Murphy also expressed his understanding and had no complaints.Of course, the faces of the three were not very good-looking, because they had just abandoned the Titans they had believed in for a long time.

Katz was also suffering. He leaned against the railing of the corridor above the hangar, his face sinking like water, and he looked down without saying a word.

And his attitude happened to be seen by Camus who had just returned to the ship.

"Why the uncomfortable expression? I heard from Captain Laila that you are very active today, Katz."

In order to be able to strike up a conversation with him, Camus specially praised him a few words.

As a result, Katz's expression became even uglier, and he laughed at himself: "It's nothing, I just feel the weight of human life."

"There must be such a day, right? I also came here like this."

"Sarah wounded Miss Bettyga and escaped."

"...?"

Camus was keenly aware that something was wrong, and the other party's words revealed a feeling of self-defeating.This is exactly the same state as when I saw my father's body with my own eyes.

Sure enough, Katz showed a masochistic smile on his face: "So, I killed her."

Before Camus could react, he let out a dry laugh: "It's strange, isn't it? It's clear that the girl you like, Camus, is also from the enemy camp, but why can you get together with Miss Feng as you wish? Is it okay to kill Sarah? Sure enough, Camus, you are a real new human, and I am just an ordinary person!"

After throwing this sentence, Katz rushed into the depths of the corridor and disappeared.

Camus watched him go with a heavy heart.

"That's... isn't that so?"

Chapter 250 Eight: Worry

Of course Camus knew that what the other party said was angry.

Whether it's disgust for the war, hatred for Sarah, or hatred for her own powerlessness, all kinds of emotions come together and finally burst out through words.

This is not only Katz's anger towards the outside world, but also his resentment towards the sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Camus could sense that such an idea was sprouting deep in Katz's heart:

'If I was as strong as others, would I be able to spare Sarah's life? '

In fact, Camus himself can understand this idea very well.After all, Sarah wasn't the only woman to fall on the battlefield.

The same is true for Feng Cunyu.

In the previous battle in the SIDE-2 universe, Feng was attacked by Sirocco in order to cover Camus, and he still hasn't woken up.In order to get her better treatment, Agama also had to use some favors to transfer Feng to the best hospital in Granada.

However, even today, Camus has not heard the news of Feng waking up, so he has to worry about it from time to time, and rarely sees a smile.

From a certain point of view, he can understand Katz's current feelings.

But what about understanding?Camus doesn't think he has the ability to comfort others.With his irritable personality, it would be good not to quarrel with Katz.

"...Do you want to talk to Captain Yubai about this? However, Ms. Bertodika is also injured, so he probably won't be able to take action now. Do you want to find Mr. Amuro? But he doesn't seem to be good at comforting people." type……"

For a while, Camus found that the atmosphere on the ship was not as harmonious as usual.

After thinking for a moment, he felt that his previous self had taken it for granted.The army is a tough murderous organization, not a soft place where one can seek personal comfort, and it would be ridiculous to want to experience a warm feeling in it.

Camus thought to himself, the reason why he feels warm is actually because he is being embraced by others, right?And when those who are willing to tolerate themselves lose their calmness and leeway because of the war in front of them, this feeling will naturally fade away.

And this is what he is most worried about right now.

Throwing young people to grow up in a high-pressure and tough environment, wouldn't it make them paranoid without knowing it?

I grew up with care, but when it was Katz's turn, the ship lost that environment.Will Kaz become agitated by Sarah's death and eventually become an ignorant and extreme adult?

Thinking of this, Camus became nervous.

……

"Doctor Hassan, how is Miss Bertotiga doing?"

In the infirmary, You Bai looked at the pale woman on the hospital bed, his heart was full of worry.

Hassan stroked his beard and sighed slightly: "The injury is much lighter than expected, and it is not life-threatening."

Hearing what the other party said, You Bai was relieved.

Regarding the matter of Bertodika, although I still have a headache about how to keep a distance from her, but in any case, the relationship between the two parties is still quite close, and even had close contact.Hearing that something happened to her, You Bai immediately panicked, and he barely recovered until now.

"It's fine if it's not life-threatening..."

"Hey, it can be considered that the opponent is showing mercy. From the point of view of the bullets entering, it should be the right location to attack."

After listening, You Bai really doesn't know what to reply.Could it be that I still have to thank the guy who shot him for his mercy?

Hassan understood his complicated mood, looked up at the clock, shook his head and said, "The anesthesia effect is almost over, I'll go out first, if you want to watch, just watch."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

The short communication with the doctor came to an end, You Bai moved a stool and sat on the side of the bed, looking at Bertodiga's pale face.

From the first time we met on Earth, she has always looked energetic, as if her slender body contained inexhaustible strength.Judging from the facts, she is indeed quite a remarkable person. Apart from not knowing how to open MS, she can take care of other chores in an orderly manner. She is a woman with obvious advantages and disadvantages.Especially in the Dakar speech, she made great contributions, and Cobatro praised her for her outstanding ability.

Having said that, she is also a mortal woman after all, with a vulnerable side.Unlike when she was messing around, she exuded a weak temperament when she was injured and fell down, which was really heart-warming.

Einstein said that time can either be longer or shorter according to each person's subjective feelings.You Bai didn't know how long he stared at Bertotiga, how many minutes?Or half an hour?He didn't care about this, anyway, the woman on the hospital bed finally opened her eyes.

Maybe it was because the anesthesia hadn't passed yet, Bertodika's expression was a little confused, she looked at the ceiling, then glanced at You Bai sitting by the bed, thought for a while, and said in a vague tone: " ...I'm still awake?"

"Where?"

You Bai smiled wryly and stretched out his hand, holding the slender hand that Bertodiga took out of the quilt, so that the other party could feel the temperature of his palm.

In this way, the woman on the hospital bed finally smiled and complained, "You are finally willing to come and accompany me."

……

The maintenance officer Astnagy was wearing the standard suit for working outside the ship at this time. Through the mirror of the helmet, he looked at the two huge armor hanging outside the Agama, and his heart fell into a deep shock.

"Oh! Titans have already created this kind of thing? Captain You Bai actually drives a mobile suit to fight against this kind of thing, one against three, how did he do it..."

Hearing the admiration from the maintenance staff, a proud smile appeared on Carl's face: "That kid, he captured the ace machine of Zeon's remnants the first time he went to the battlefield!"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Because he's a messy guy."

To Karl, You Bai is no different from his family members. Although they only got together for a few months, it is a friendship left on the battlefield of life and death, and it cannot be measured by time.

Hearing others praise You Bai now, why not be unhappy?

On the inner deck behind the two of them, Murphy and Eliard were talking happily with April.

The old comrades who hadn't seen for a long time suddenly appeared in front of him. At first, April was so excited that he couldn't speak smoothly. Fortunately, Murphy and the others still greeted each other with the original attitude, which gradually stabilized April's mood.

Maybe, she couldn't help thinking, war wasn't all bad?

But soon, this thought was dismissed by herself.Because she also heard about Katz on the deck.

Where can anything good happen in war?

It was a hell of death and pain.Even if there is a good thing, it is achieved by someone through their own hard work.

Is there a price to pay for these good things?

April couldn't even think about it.
