Chapter 76: Losing this opportunity today means losing the future Probably for various reasons, the Zaft Army is very willing to create war , as a military organization, ZAFT has an extremely strong ability in marketing celebrities. This can be seen from the endless stream of so-called elites with various titles. They always seem to enjoy giving titles to soldiers in order to create popularity and promote them externally. The reason is probably... Is the celebrity effect more effective in attracting the public to join the army and boosting morale? But everything has two sides. The collapse of the fan effect caused by the shattering of the idol's halo is an extremely terrifying thing. Therefore, as the current top idol group of Zaft, the Cruze team not only gathers the top streamer of Plant Cruze, but also has many second-generation officials joining in. According to the original plan of the top regulators, they only needed to fight a few good battles, gild themselves a little, and then grandly launch themselves to the outside world to reap a large number of leeks. however…… The atmosphere on the Vesalius was heavy, even heavier than when a corporate slave goes to work. "Bang!" In the MS driver's lounge, Isaac smashed a closet door with his own flesh and blood fist.
There had just been a quarrel, and during the post-war review, everyone discovered that Aslan was not working hard enough. So Yizhak stared at Lanmao with bloodshot eyes, but he felt more resentment towards himself. "Whoosh whoosh." He was breathing heavily, like an old ox plowing the field, and looked extremely scary. Just when everyone was worried about Yizhak, wondering if he would rush up and fight with Aslan. In the end, Baimao did not make the move to fight with his comrades, and there was a loud bang as the door slammed. "Isaac!" Diego glanced at his friend who ran out of the door, then turned back to look at Aslan who was dejected. "Ugh." He transformed himself into an old farmer who had experienced hardships and toiled all his life but could not even have a full meal. Diego said nothing and chased after him. Compared to Aslan, Yitzhak is more important to him. "Aslan." The deep sadness in his eyes almost overflowed, and he gently called out his friend's name. Seeing the other person's depressed look, Nigel's face was full of heartache. But Nigel could never bring himself to blame Aslan. After standing there and silently accompanying his friend for a while, Nigel's eyes showed determination. Then he left Aslan alone and went out of the room. "Nigel?" Athrun waited until his good friend whom he had met again on the plant left, and then he raised his head, realizing belatedly that his mind was filled with Kira the moment before.
"Have I disappointed Nigel again?" With a mouth full of bitterness, Aslan raised his head, because only in this way would the tears in his eyes not wet the ground. "Ha." Feeling like a joke, Aslan sat there alone in silence for a while before he stood up shakily. "It's time to go find Captain Cruze." He said this and walked towards the unknown future. "Captain Cruse." After leaving Aslan, Nigel, who had made up his mind, rode his horse at full speed to the bridge. As soon as the automatic door opened, he shouted to Cruze who was standing next to the tactical platform. With a wave of his hand, Cruze, holding a piece of paper, signaled his subordinates to stay calm. "Captain?" Nigel whispered doubtfully, then stood aside sensibly and watched quietly without saying a word. "The Archangel must have gone to Artemis this time." Leaning elegantly against the tactical platform, Cruze stared at the map displayed on the screen and said confidently. "But Captain Cruze, we also detected a large heat source, which was heading towards the headquarters of the United Nations on the moon." His eyes moved up and down as the paper in Cruze's hand rose and fell, and his adjutant raised an objection with great concern. You know, their current enemy is the cunning Wang Hu! The Cruze team has suffered too much loss at the hands of Wang Hu! Captain Cruze had previously judged that Wang Hu and the others would flee towards Artemis. But the result? The price paid was the sinking of four battleships and a significant loss of the team's combat effectiveness. If something unexpected happens at this critical moment... The adjutant swallowed hard and thought for a while. Seeing that Cruze was in deep thought, he plucked up the courage to speak again. "How should we respond to the inquiries from the plant? I think Captain Cruze, why don't we go back first?" "The rest of the work can be handed over to the friendly forces that are gathering here." The adjutant paused here and saw that Cruze was just looking at him but didn't say anything against it. Thinking he had guessed the captain's thoughts, the adjutant spoke with some confidence. "And the most confidential information of the United Nations Army is on board this ship, although the data has already been transmitted back." "But if the Ministry of Defense gets the actual machine, I believe it will only be helpful in disassembling and studying the technology of the United Army." "Not to mention that the mainland originally asked us to go back and give a detailed account of the Heliopolis incident." Not only did he put the blame on the friendly forces behind him, but he also made it impossible for them to find any fault. New orders from home? Or should we question Captain Cruze? Nigel, who was standing quietly, suddenly felt nervous when he heard this.
Yes, attacking a neutral country’s satellite can cause the entire satellite to collapse. This must be an extremely sensitive matter in Plant, which has experienced the Junius 7 incident. In addition, because of Wang Hu of the East Asian Army, the losses of friendly forces and our team were so heavy! Looking at Cruze who was still silent and expressionless, Nigel, who wanted to come over to explain and make amends for Aslan, was extremely worried. I am worried that the captain will receive military punishment, and I am also worried that Aslan will be punished as well. "It's not my style to leave now." After a light laugh, Cruze, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. Facing his subordinates who had found all the excuses for him, his demeanor remained unchanged and he was still so confident that it was impressive. "Wang Hu and his men will definitely go to Artemis. What they found earlier could only be guided missiles used by the other side to interfere with our vision." "The purpose is nothing more than to delay the friendly forces on their way to the moon." "But……" The residual power is still there, even though Cruze's recent performance is not as impressive as before. The adjutant looked at his confident superior. He moved his mouth, and finally chose the order sent from home, using this reason as his final persuasion. "What about the local orders?" "Nigel." Ignoring the adjutant's question, Cruze turned around and asked another subordinate who had been standing next to him for a while. "What do you think of Wang Hu of the East Asian Army?" "Ah?" Nigel was shocked. He didn't expect that the captain would ask him this question at this time. He looked at the captain who was looking at him, and the adjutant who kept winking at him. After quickly thinking about the captain's intention in his mind, the honest Nigel still told the truth. "The enemy's Lord Wang Hu is a very strong opponent, as powerful as an insurmountable mountain." "In every battle, he has not reached the limit of his ability. I think he may not have shown his true strength so far." "Captain Cruze, please forgive me for being blunt, but if the enemy had weapons equal to ours, Aslan and I would have had no chance of escaping in the previous battle!" "Yeah." Nodding with satisfaction, Cruze got the answer he wanted. "Adjutant, do you think there is an opportunity to completely destroy such a strong man now?" "This will help Plant solve his biggest problem. Should we seize the opportunity?" I was very happy to see an old friend, Seth, today.
