A journey through the Gundam world

"Why are they in the factory area?"

"Because their mentor is a professor from Orb National University and participated in the G plan. As students of the professor, Kira and the others naturally participated in it without knowing it. And their office is usually in the factory. In the area.”

"When the attack happened, Kira got separated from their classmates and entered Gnaku by mistake. You know what happened next. But he got on the MS to prevent his classmates from being The fighting Jin En and the force attack were accidental injuries, that’s all.”

"Unexpectedly, it's like this..."

For the first time, Aslan knew the whole process of why Kira got on the mobile suit.

Although Kira told him several times that he was forced to do so in order to protect his friends.

But he always thought that Kira was kidnapped by the Earth Army and had to get on the mobile suit.

Now it seems that it is completely different from what I thought.Just like Alex said, this is just a fate.

This made him feel better inside, but it was still a bit hard to describe.

"What about you, instructor? Why are you where you are and why you are flying the mobile suit."

Facing the students' questions, he took a sip of tea very calmly.

"Because I am an Orb soldier, and Orb is also developing mobile suits. It's that simple."

Hearing his answer, Aslan understood.

As an adjuster, he is not dull-minded.Coupled with the fact that he has a father who is a high-ranking official, it is easy to figure out the reason.

Orb's motive for developing mobile suits for the Atlantic Federation also had his own small calculations, and he took the opportunity to develop his own mobile suits.

If Team Cruze hadn't gotten the news, both the Atlantic Federation and Orb would have revealed their mobile suits by now.

There is no doubt that all this is the result of the catalytic acceleration of war.

More new weapons will also bring more war, killing and bloodshed.

Even thinking more deeply, this will lead to further expansion and escalation of the war.

This will lead to the emergence of more new weapons and ultimately bring devastating disasters.

These things are written clearly one by one in history.

However, the only lesson humanity has learned from history is;

Humanity never learns from history.

Since hot weapons replaced cold weapons as the main force in warfare, the casualties in human wars have skyrocketed.

The Third World War triggered by the oil crisis, also known as the Reconstruction War, brought devastation to the world.

In fact, the CE era even started during the war.

From more than 20 years before the CE era until CE09, this intermittent war that led to the current situation in the world was finally over.

However, peace lasted less than 60 years before war broke out again.

Now, this war between regulators and natural people has no end in sight.

Both sides are upgrading their weapons and equipment, laying the foundation for a new round of large-scale fighting.

"Why must there be a war?"

"Because it's human desire."

Aslan raised his head. What the instructor just said was more like what Cruze would say.

"What you said is very similar to what Captain Cruse said."

"Really? It sounds like he is a very tasteful person."

"However, sometimes I feel that Captain Cruze has a...terrifying aura on his body."

Alex took a sip of tea and refilled himself with water.

It seems that although Cruze has always concealed his inner desires, a hint of darkness will always appear inadvertently.

"Wars can never be easily avoided. Unless there is enough power to deter the other party to keep disputes in words, wars cannot be avoided."

"The reason why many wars break out is bullying of the weak, so having enough power to protect yourself is the most important thing."

Aslan looked up at him.

"Are you Orb's hawk?"

"No, I'm just a dove."

"But your argument sounds very hawkish."

Alex laughed out loud at this comment.

"It would be ridiculous, Aslan, to say that supporting armament means being a hawk."

He put down the cup and said seriously.

"I believe that only sufficient strength can maintain the foundation of peace. Only relying on words and pure love will not make people hate you."

"Then how do you think this war between adjusters and natural humans should be ended?"

Unknowingly, Aslan had calmed down and began to ask him about his inner questions.

"The reason for the outbreak of this war is PLANT's demand for independence. From this point of view, the responsibility of both sides is [-]-[-]."

"Huh? But isn't it the oppression of the adjusters by natural people that has led to the current situation? Why is it said to be [-]/[-]?"

Aslan was stunned and immediately retorted.

"Then let me ask you, where did the funds and materials to build PLANT come from? Who provided it? It was the PLANT council member, right?"

"Yes."

"Since the other party has paid, the purpose is naturally to repay. It is appropriate for PLANT to provide materials in return, right?"

"Yes. However, it is true that they have always hoped to squeeze PLANT at a low price!"

Alex nodded.

"I admit it, so I say the responsibility is [-]/[-] between both parties."

Aslan bit his lip and tried to refute, but found that he actually agreed with his statement in his heart.

"Then Bloody Valentine's Day comes. I understand PLANT's fear of another nuclear attack. But have you considered the consequences of the uncontrolled use of neutron jammers around the world? Why did many countries that originally supported the regulators suddenly change their minds? Got your attitude?"

"Yes, is it because of... the neutron jammer?"

"That's right, April Fool's Day Crisis, that's what the United Earth calls the consequences of the neutron jammer. Although this thing does block nuclear weapons, it also makes equipment such as nuclear power plants ineffective. Do you know how many people have died directly and indirectly on the earth because of this? Human? Aslan."

"I have no idea."

Alex sighed.

"Countless, and there will be more in the future. This is why many countries on Earth have since turned to support the United Earth. Now at least [-] to [-]% of the natural people on Earth support the war against the Adjusters."

The young man lowered his head, not knowing how to refute.

"I'm not accusing the adjusters of disregarding human life and speaking for natural people. But this war needs to end, which is not a simple matter. Because the two sides have developed too much hatred for each other, and it cannot be resolved with a piece of treaty. of."

"So, how can we end the war? Instructor."

The question returned to the original topic, but Alex calmly took a sip of tea.

"Now, it's not yet time."

"why!"

The look on Aslan's face was one of great consternation.

"Because the forces that oppose war and hope for peace are still very weak. As for natural people, as I said, you should also feel that there are many people who fanatically support war. Is that right?"

Aslan's eyes flashed before his father's speech, as well as the roaring crowds below the stage, and his expression suddenly dimmed.

Just as the instructor said, there are now very loud calls for the continuation of the war in PLANT. He has also heard that some people even advocate the complete elimination of natural persons.

Doesn't that mean that the war will be difficult to end?

"Then we just watch the war continue?"

Unconsciously, Aslan puts himself and Alex on the same front.

"Yes, wait for the opportunity, develop comrades, and expand the influence of peaceful forces. This is the only thing we can do at the moment."

"Flying a moth into a flame is heroic, but it doesn't help reality. Do you understand? Aslan."

Listening to his sincere tone, Aslan nodded.

Chapter 157

When the rain stopped and the clouds dispersed, the clouds in Aslan's heart also dissipated.

Through this conversation in the rain cave, not only his inner depression was expressed.

And Alex and I also reached an agreement on some things.

The original confusion in the young man's eyes was much lessened.

He felt like he had found his true purpose, for peace and hard work.

And the atmosphere between the two was no longer so tense.

After the rain stopped, the two of them packed their things and were about to part ways.

Heavy rain has certainly hindered search and rescue, but after the rain clears up, rescue teams from both sides may be able to find this place soon.

"Please be kind to Nigel. Instructor."

"I will, and if I have the chance, I will help him. After all, we are going to Orb's territory later, you know."

He blinked and then handed the microflush back to him.

"Your weapon, return it to you."

Aslan asked suddenly when he took it.

"Aren't you afraid that I will shoot you now?"

"I bet you can't, Aslan."

At this time, the young man suddenly asked another pointed question.

"But if we meet again on the battlefield next time, instructor, what will you do?"

Alex smiled at this question that could be called the trolley problem.

"It doesn't matter what I do. It depends on what you think in your heart. If you need it, I can cooperate with you in acting."

After hearing what he said, Aslan said with dissatisfaction in his tone.

"You are really cunning, sir, but I will do it, instructor."

"I'll tell you when the time comes. Maybe you won't be able to beat me by then. Hahahahahaha"

Alex didn't feel awkward about Aslan's persistence.

Students who don't want to defeat their teachers are not good deans.

The young man must have resentment in his heart for losing to himself.

Therefore, it is understandable to want to overcome your emotions.

But as a veteran YB, he will use all means to make young people realize what it means to be an insidious and cunning adult!

Thinking of this, he smiled and extended his right hand to Aslan.

"Then let's see whose rescue arrives first."

"Ok."

After shaking hands, the master and apprentice left the cave and walked towards their respective machines.

Outside the island, the Archangel was carefully searching for the island.

After Kira lured Yitzhak away, the two sides fought fiercely over the surrounding islands.

The fight between the two of them could be said to be evenly matched unless Kira exploded.

"Damn it! This guy is progressing so fast!"

He failed to shoot down the attack many times, which made Yitzhak very anxious.
