Immortal Soul of Steel

I wish all readers a happy Mid-Autumn Festival~!

—Text below—

The huge mechanical bird spread its wings and caused huge waves.

In this storm, C.C, Kallen, and Suzaku Shumu worked hard to maintain the body's posture.

"Hey, is this too big? What kind of monster is this?" Kallen looked up at the giant mechanical bird, her eyes full of shock.

This was the first time Kallen had seen such a huge monster. Not to mention that this monster now is obviously a dimensional beast type enemy. This makes handwriting difficult for Karen.

C.C also looked at the sky with a solemn face: "It seems that we are very popular?"

Lelouch was equally shocked as he looked at the huge body of the mechanical bird above the full-circle cockpit.

But after hearing C.C's words, Lelouch immediately came back to his senses and looked down at her.

"What's the meaning?"

C.C looked back at him with a meaningful look and said.

"Sa, who knows."

"Hey, C.C, please explain it to me... Wow~!"

Just as Lelouch was about to say something, C.C controlled the Zero Gundam to dodge sideways and avoid a huge blue beam.

Because of the sudden acceleration, Lelouch was caught off guard and let out a cry of surprise.

Hearing Lelouch's exclamation, C.C smiled slightly and replied without looking back.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. It's better to concentrate on fighting."

Lelouch narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at C.C, and still insisted: "When you go back, remember to explain it clearly to me."

C.C didn't respond, just controlled the Zero Gundam to dodge.

Once again dodging the blue light ejected from the giant mechanical bird's mouth, C.C controlled the Zero Gundam and pointed the beam rifle in his hand at the giant mechanical bird.

"Don't go too far, little sparrow."

The green beam shot out and hit the mechanical giant bird accurately. In other words, the giant mechanical bird didn't even dodge, it just stopped in the air. Received a beam rifle attack from Gundam Zero.

However, the Zero Gundam's attacks don't work at all.

The protective shield on the surface of the mechanical giant bird canceled out the beam coming from the Zero Gundam on the spot, leaving no trace at all.

This situation surprised both Kallen and Shumu Suzaku.

"How is it possible that the Zero Gundam's attack can't break through the protective shield of this dimensional beast? This is the latest Gundam's powerful beam rifle, not an ordinary small water gun."

Kallen's exclamation made Shumu Suzaku nervous.

Lancelot's enhanced beam rifle is not much more powerful than the beam rifles of these two Gundams.

If the attacks of these two Gundams can't break the defense, then maybe the current Lancelot can't break the defense, right?

In order to test this, Shumu Suzaku and Kallen controlled Lancelot and Guren Gundam, aiming the beam rifle and beam rifle at the giant mechanical bird in the sky.

The two beams fired at it, just picking up a few ripples on the protective shield, had no effect.

This result made Karen and Shumu Suzaku's scalps numb.

"It won't work like this." Seeing that his attacks had no effect, Shumu Suzaku understood that there was no way to defeat this dimensional beast.

Controlling Lancelot to avoid the mechanical bird's counterattack beam, Suzaku opened the communication.

"Doctor, Dr. Lloyd, can you hear me?"

What Shumu Suzaku understands, Kallen also understands.

He also controlled the Guren Gundam to avoid the attack of the mechanical giant bird, and turned to ask Lelouch in the Zero Gundam.

"ZERO, what should we do? With our attacks, we can't break through the defense. It's impossible to fight like this."

Lelouch frowned slightly as he looked at the attacks coming from the sky one after another.

"It's strange."

C.C, who controlled the machine to dodge, asked without looking back: "What's so strange?"

Lelouch looked up at the giant mechanical bird above and said.

"Although this dimensional beast responded to our attack, it seemed to be only making the minimum counterattack."

"This guy's target doesn't seem to be us?"

C.C was also surprised when he heard this: "Huh? Is there such a thing?"

The Zero Gundam stopped attacking and moved left and right to dodge for a while. C.C also discovered this.

"It's true, if I don't attack it, it will pay much less attention to us."

"Although there are still attacks, the frequency of attacks has been reduced by nearly half."

Lelouch nodded slightly: "Not only that, look at the body of this dimensional beast."

"Such a huge body, but it remains high in the sky and does not use its body to attack us."

"It's so unnatural."

"According to the habits of regular dimensional beasts, when they see humans, they will attack directly."

"When they see humanoid mobile weapons and hostile entities launching attacks, they will attack first."

"These guys are like beasts and not very intelligent."

C.C turned around and said: "Those you mentioned are all ordinary dimensional beasts. The one from a few days ago is a special species with high intelligence."

Lelouch responded: "Of course I understand this. This one is probably a special species. But even the special type of dimensional beast a few days ago will attack us first."

"But this one is completely different. There must be something wrong."

After thinking for a moment, Lelouch opened the public channel and shouted to Kallen and Shumu Suzaku.

"You two, reduce the frequency of attacks and be careful. This big guy is smart, what is he planning?"

"The other party's intentions are currently unknown, and our attacks are not effective at all. Don't waste energy easily."

Kallen and Shumu Suzaku nodded in unison: "Understood."

On the other side, in the courtyard of the Governor's Palace.

Lin Youde also grabbed Lamia who was about to board the bow angel parked next to the other courtyard.

"Director?"

"Wait a minute, Lamia."

Holding the confused Lamia, Lin Youde also held a telescope and looked at the mechanical giant bird-shaped dimensional beast in the sky.

"What's wrong, Director?"

Lamia looked at Lin Youde doubtfully, and Lin Youde replied.

"This dimensional beast is acting very strangely. Let's take a closer look."

Lamia looked up at the mechanical giant bird-shaped dimensional beast that was almost motionless in the sky, with only its head moving constantly, and nodded in understanding.

"Since the director has said so, I will wait a little longer."

Nodding, Lin Youde looked at this mechanical giant bird-shaped dimensional beast and muttered in his heart.

‘Isn’t this guy here for Lancelot? So who is this guy here for? ’

The same confusion still exists among Mithril's M9 combat team.

Lockon, Weiba and others were also discussing the strangeness of this dimensional beast.

Lockon: "What is this dimensional beast doing? Why does it only defend but not attack?"

Weiba: "I'm not sure. Could this dimensional beast become a spirit?"

Allelujah: "Don't talk nonsense, the dimensional beast is not a monster."

Mao: "You guys, please be serious, you..."

Before Mao finished speaking, Lian's emotionless voice sounded on the team channel.

"careful!"

Almost as soon as Lian finished speaking, the giant mechanical bird-shaped dimensional beast in the sky, which was only shooting a small beam, quickly accumulated a ball of light in its mouth and aimed it downwards.

In an instant, the ball of light erupted with a huge flow of light.

Countless beams of light fell from the sky and struck in the direction of the M9 team.

Faced with this scene, the attacker removed the optical camouflage on the spot and blocked other people's M9s.

"Distort your position and unfold it!"

Countless beams of light hit the distorted position and were bounced off one after another.

But before Lockon and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, they heard a loud and piercing cry.

"GAAAAA~~!!!!!"

Huge wind and waves erupted again as the giant mechanical bird-shaped dimensional beast flapped its wings.

Everyone controlled the machine to raise its head and saw the head of the mechanical giant bird-shaped dimensional beast, pointed in the direction of the Mithril team.

In other words, it was aimed in the direction of the attacker.

“￥￥\u0026(Found)…GAAAAA!!!!!”

The piercing cry and the telepathic sound echoed in the minds of everyone in the current area.

At this moment, Lin Youde, Lelouch, and Mao all understood the true purpose of this mechanical giant bird-shaped dimensional beast.

Mao even exclaimed on the spot: "No, this dimensional beast is coming for Lian and the attacker. Everyone, get back!"
