Gundam SEED’s Final Destination

Chapter 519: The power of words, Kira gradually falls into disadvantage

boom--

Ash Gray pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the high-energy beam flew towards the retreating and flipping Strike Gundam.

Kira's eyes searched left and right, and the engine of the machine turned sideways to avoid the beam.

At the same time, adjust the flight attitude of the aircraft body and prepare to meet it.

PiuPiuPiu——

However, the next second, three beams of light flew out from the empty sky and hit the Reborn Gundam.

A black and gold machine emerged from mid-air.

呲呲呲——

Not surprisingly, the three beams were blocked by the Reborn Gundam with its shield raised.

"Golden... heresy?"

Ash Gray couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar machine.

"Rebirth Gundam!"

In the cockpit of the Golden Heretic, Mina Sahak rarely showed murderous intent in his eyes.

She is not a person who likes to act because of emotions, but when facing the Reborn Gundam, Mina Sahak really couldn't calm down her heart.

As the culprit who killed Gina Sahak, Mina Sahak has always believed that he must kill him.

In the past, it was difficult to take action due to various reasons, but now that we have encountered it, there is nothing to say.

"Now that we have met, please just sleep forever——"

As Mina's cold tone fell, the golden heretic drew out his cross fist sword and flew towards the Rebirth Gundam.

"It's up to you!"

When Ash Gray was exposed, he drove the Rebirth Gundam to transform and flip over to meet him.

The appearance of the Golden Heretic made Ash Gray feel irritated for no reason, and the best way to eliminate this irritation was to turn it into a burning wreckage on the ground.

The emergence of Strike Gundam E and Golden Heretic has greatly reduced the pressure on Thunderbolt Gundam.

But the sword-mounted disaster in front still pressed down on the Thunderbolt Gundam and beat it violently.

"Damn it, this is not the way to go!"

Noins felt anxious as he looked at the gradually decreasing number of friendly aircraft.

But there are no available troops at the moment.

Noel, who was hiding in the ruins, gradually came to a decision as he watched the fierce battle between MSs in the sky.

"Sandy, hide here until the East Asian coalition forces finally arrive and it will be safe."

For ordinary people, the best way to survive now is to stay here and wait for military support.

This behavior of the Gadi Lu is completely a provocation to the East Asia United, and the East Asia United will definitely come to support at all costs.

As long as you hold on until then, you'll be safe.

"how about you?"

Sandy looked up and asked Noel.

"Me? I have things I need to get done."

Feeling the warm touch coming from behind, Noel couldn't help but feel a little enlightened.

Soldiers are going to die on the battlefield. If this dying body can do something for her, then it might be a good ending.

Lux seemed to feel something, and she couldn't help but tighten her hold on Noel's arm.

Feeling the power coming from his arm, Noel turned around and patted the back of Lux's hand with a chuckle: "Believe me!"

Looking at Noel's face with firm eyes, Lux opened her mouth but didn't say a word.

"What are you going to do?"

Because the distance between the two parties was not far, when Noel and Lux looked at each other, Sandy stepped on the gravel on the ground and came to Noel and Lux.

"Do the only thing I can do. If this situation continues, they won't be able to insist on the arrival of reinforcements."

Noel said while watching the battle in mid-air through the gap between the ruined houses.

Kira and Mina are really strong, at least there is no problem in one-on-one combat.

But their number is too small, and the only one in East Asia that is qualified to participate in the war is only one MS from Thunderbolt Gundam.

The other mobile suits are just cannon fodder.

Coupled with the attack of the Gadi Ru, the remaining mobile suits of the East Asia Alliance are now less than 20.

And this number continues to decrease.

Once the miscellaneous soldiers were dealt with, the freed-up Divine Gundam and Warrior Gundam joined the battle, and even Kira couldn't hold them back.

So in order to delay it for enough time, I have to stand up and buy some time.

Perhaps staying alive here is a good choice.

But Noel had a hunch in his heart that Matisse's target was probably himself and Lux.

Based on Mattis's character, Mattis would never mind razing the entire town to the ground with artillery fire if he was not guaranteed to be killed.

"The only thing I can do is pilot a mobile suit?"

After hearing Noel's words, Sandy couldn't help but smile and said: "Haha, that's right, after all, you are the Red Death."

"Uh-huh!?"

Noel's heart tightened when he heard Sandy's sad tone. Without any hesitation, he turned around and pointed at Sandy with his gun.

"stop!"

However, the second before Noel turned around, Sandy stood beside Lux with a gun.

"When did you find out?"

Looking at Sandy's slightly trembling arms, Noel took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

"When was it discovered? Is it important?"

Sandy asked with a tearful smile.

"That's right, it's really not important."

Noel smiled dumbly when he heard this. In the current situation, the answer to this question is indeed not important anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Noel continued to say to Sandy: "Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Your brother was killed by me and had nothing to do with Lux."

Sandy already knew the truth, so he had nothing to hide.

When he learned that Sandy's brother died in the Battle of Panama, Noel knew that there was no room for relaxation between himself and Sandy.

More than 60% of the natural pilots who died in the Battle of Panama were related to him.

Even if he did not kill him with his own hands, he did so indirectly. This is an undisputed fact. There is no room or need for quibbles.

"You admitted it?"

Sandy asked with a smile.

But Noel saw only suffocating pain on her face.

"Yes, I admit it, I am Noel Cassia, the enemy you are looking for."

Noel nodded, without any emotion on his face.

You must admit it if you do it, whether it is because of an order or for any other reason.

Killing is killing, there is no excuse for it.

Even if he didn't kill Sandy's brother directly, he still had an unshirkable responsibility.

"Why did you just admit it? Why didn't you quibble——"

Sandy had a sad look on his face, and the arm holding the gun was trembling.

Listening to Noel's honest answer, Sandy didn't know whether he should be happy or cry.

Noel's eyes narrowed slightly and he didn't say anything.

Sandy's mood is very unstable, so it's better not to irritate her.

"It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and Noel is not wrong."

However, just because Noel didn't provoke Sandy, it didn't mean that Lux could hold back and keep silent.

"Lux—"

Noel was stunned. It was not a good choice to irritate Sandy at this time.

"Noel, you don't need to take responsibility for the sacrifices in the war. You are not wrong!"

Lux slowly took off her hood in response to Noel's gaze, revealing long pink hair and delicate cheeks, but the expression on her cheeks was a solemn look that Noel had not seen for a long time.

"So my brother should die there? He should die!?"

Sandy became more and more excited after hearing this.

"This is war. Although it is a wrong war and should not exist, it is indeed a war! A war between natural man and adjusters!"

Lux ignored Noel's stunned eyes, turned to face Sandy's gun and said seriously: "Soldiers in war only have different positions, there is no right or wrong, they are just faithfully executing the orders from above."

"If you don't kill, you will be killed. If you don't resist, you will die. So you must take up arms and resist. So they kill each other and send each living life to hell in each other's angry roar."

"You can hate those who hurt you on the battlefield because of the pain of losing your loved ones, because they are fighting for each other's lives and using their lives to practice the interests of their homeland."

"Of course, none of this can be said to be correct. Exchange of artillery fire is never correct."

"But you absolutely cannot say that those soldiers were wrong because of this. As long as there is a war, people are bound to die. No one can avoid this."

"The ones who are really at fault are those who promote war for their own selfish purposes!"

"It's those who expanded the war and pushed the world into purgatory!"

Once a war starts, it will only end in the form of a war. The difference is only who wins and who loses, or both lose. There is no win-win war.

So ordinary belligerent acts in war are not crimes.

Only those who are found to have violated the laws of war, committed war crimes, crimes against humanity and crimes against peace can be considered guilty of crimes.

But no matter what the laws of war are, if you just kill an enemy soldier in a fight, it cannot be called a crime.

It can only be said that it is a wrong result caused by different positions.

But attacking civilians, massacring civilians, and harming civilians are definitely wrong, sinful, and unforgivable.

War is between soldiers and soldiers, not between soldiers and civilians.

After finishing speaking, Lux continued without waiting for Sandy to speak: "Actually, you know in your heart that the person you really hate is not Noel, but the war that killed your brother."

"No! That's not the case! If it weren't for Noel, my brother wouldn't have died. If it weren't for him, my brother-"

Sandy retorted in horror.

However, Lux interrupted Sandy again and said: "If defending the country is a mistake, if resisting aggression is a mistake, then what else is right in this world."

"The soldiers of PLNAT fight to protect their homeland, and the soldiers of the Earth United also fight to protect their homeland. They are both right, and they all set foot on the battlefield with the right ideas."

"They all sacrificed their lives for the justice in their hearts, so even if they faced death, they still set foot on the road that symbolized death."

"Saving one's life to protect the motherland is respectable and cannot be desecrated."

"Whether it's the United Earth or PLANT, it's the same on both sides."

"If you want to deny that Noel fought justly on the battlefield, it is also a mistake to think that he fought justly on the battlefield."

"Then you must also deny that it was a mistake for your brother to step onto the battlefield. Your brother is a soldier, and Noel is also a soldier. The difference is that they stand on different sides."

Lux's expression was very serious. Even when faced with Sandy's trembling arms, Lux still showed no timidity on her face.

"No, it's not like that..."

Sandy was disturbed by Lux's powerful words.

Lux's tone softened slightly and continued: "What you want to hate should be hating the culprit who started the war, not the poor soldiers who had to step onto the battlefield because of orders and beliefs in their hearts!"

"No one wants to die, no one wants war, no one wants to risk his life."

"But because of the order, because the war has emerged, as soldiers, they have to step onto the battlefield and have to pay for the beliefs in their hearts."

"To deny the soldiers' beliefs is to deny the sacrifices of the soldiers, to deny the existence of the soldiers, and to deny the lives they paid."

"······"

Looking at Sandy who was confused by what Lux said, Noel opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment.

at the same time.

The artillery fire over the battlefield gradually became sparse.

The Divine Gundam flipped and floated, turned around to avoid the beam, and at the same time, he aimed the gun and pulled the trigger.

PiuPiuPiu——

The three beams of light flew staggered.

呲呲——Boom——

The cockpit of a Gladius L was penetrated and it fell down in the flames of the explosion.

"Nya, go and deal with Strike Gundam!"

In the cockpit of the God's Will Gundam, Niya was just about to continue chasing other MSs when Matisse's order suddenly came from the cockpit.

"clear."

After hearing this, Niya Mathis stopped what she was doing, turned around, and flew the Divine Gundam not far away to Strike Gundam E.

"Should I say that I am truly the strongest mobile suit pilot? It's a pity——"

Mattis looked at the battle scenes reflected on the screen, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Didi didi——

The alarm sounded in the cockpit of the Strike Gundam.

Kira glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and his head gradually lit up.

Kira's eyes flickered, and while piloting the Strike Gundam, he took half a step back, his anti-ship sword in his left hand swept towards the left.

The next second, the high-energy beam penetrated the battlefield and hit the Strike Gundam's position into the air.

clang--

The black Thunder Gundam raised its shield to block the anti-ship sword, and the beam saber in its left hand swung and flipped, stabbing towards the cockpit of the Strike Gundam.

Facing Pars' attack, Kira flipped her right hand, which held the anti-ship knife tightly, and moved upward.

呲——

The anti-ship knife lay across the front of the cockpit a second before the beam saber hit the cockpit, blocking the jet-black Thunder's beam saber.

Didi didi——

The radar siren sounded again in the cockpit of the Strike Gundam.

While tilting his head, the muzzle of Crimson Forbidden's back flipped.

"die!"

boom--

Two magnetic rail guns mixed with a high-energy beam penetrated the battlefield and flew straight towards the Strike Gundam.

Seeing this, Kira pushed away the Black Thunder and retreated to evade the attack.

"Your opponent! It's me!"

However, after undergoing gene expansion and strengthening, Karnad Pals quickly adjusted the position of the body.

As he turned around, the three-armed shield attack system took aim.

Three armor-piercing projectiles flew toward the Strike Gundam with trailing smoke.

Rumble——

Even Kira couldn't evade the missile at such a close range.

The Strike Gundam was instantly enveloped in the smoke generated by the missile explosion.

Looking at the smoke ahead, the black Thunder Gundam began to secrete mirage particles and gradually disappeared in mid-air.

boom--

Almost at the same time that the jet-black Thunder Gundam disappeared, two magnetic rail guns and two high-energy blasts broke through the smoke.

Crimson Forbidden, who was about to approach with a knife, forced him back.

Didi——

歘——

Canad Pars didn't give Kira any time to breathe, as the smoke surrounding the Strike Gun dissipated.

The jet-black Thunder Gundam, which gradually activated its armor, appeared behind the Strike Gundam. The beam saber popped out from the front of the three-armed shield attack and swept towards the cockpit.

歘——

However, when Canard made a confident attack, the Strike Gundam turned one step ahead in the direction of the beam saber.

Looking at the gradually turning attack, Pars had a vague feeling in his heart.

呲——

歘——

Two rays of light unique to anti-ship swords flashed through the air, and in the gradually shrinking hole of Karnad Pals, his feeling came true.

While Strike Gundam E's left sword blocked the deadly beam saber, its right hand raised the ship's sword diagonally from bottom to top.

Activating the mirage particles means that the aircraft must give up its PS armor. This means that even with the beam-carrying coating, the three-armed shield attack still does not have high defense.

The anti-ship sword is a semi-physical sword, a smaller version of the ship-cutting sword.

Even if the ship-cutting knife loses the addition of beam particles, its blade is enough to break the three-armed shield attack without turning on the PS armor.

boom--

With a dull sound, the front part of the black Thunder Gundam's arm exploded.

At the same time, the body also experienced a temporary state of imbalance.

"Damn it!"

While Canad was cursing, he began to try his best to balance his body.

boom--

Naturally, Kira would not miss this opportunity, turning around and raising her legs along with Strike Gundam.

The Black Thunder Gundam was swept away by the Strike Gundam.

Looking at the black lightning flying backwards, Kira hesitated slightly with his finger on the button of the beam cannon.

Didi didi——

But the opportunity was fleeting on the battlefield, and the harsh warning of the radar appeared in the cockpit of the Strike Gundam.

Turning around, Crimson Forbidden City had already arrived beside Strike Gundam with a scythe in hand.
