Immortal Soul of Steel

Regarding Durandal's words, Lin Youde did not suspect that the other party was pretending to be miserable.

Because the strength of the ZAFT army is indeed seriously insufficient now.

Originally, population and fertility issues were a major drawback and difficulty for regulators.

Therefore, the overall population of adjusters has been unable to increase.

With a limited population, United Earth Contact gave ZAFT two waves of big work.

One lunar surface base and one Alaska base.

The two detonations of the Cyclops system can be said to have severely damaged ZAFT's military strength.

Coupled with the war a year ago, many troops were lost.

This resulted in ZAFT, which had a serious shortage of troops and an equally insufficient population, and had to recruit a large number of women to become soldiers.

This is one of the important reasons why Luna became a soldier.

P.L.A.N.T. is almost at the end of its rope and has reached the point where it can only resort to force.

After the last war, no adjuster will think that P.L.A.N.T. can continue to exist without the protection of ZAFT.

Therefore, even if it is to survive for themselves and their families, many female adjusters resolutely embark on the military career.

Of course, as a leader of a country, he would definitely not talk about this kind of thing casually.

If the other party dares to say it at this time, he must have something up his sleeve.

And this plot is to win over himself, and then join forces with Orb to enhance his own strength.

Lin Youde is still clear about this.

Understanding Durandal's intention, Lin Youde followed suit and responded.

"Although we all don't like war, if war is coming, then we can only actively prepare for war."

"After all, the only thing that can defend peace in front of a group of madmen is the force in your hands."

"Because this is the only way even a madman can understand it."

Lux glanced at Lin Youde and sighed secretly.

‘Sure enough, war is inevitable. Youde also sees it clearly. ’

‘Both the Earth and the Speaker of P.L.A.N.T. seem to want to restart the war. ’

'Although I don't want the war to start again and cause more deaths. ’

'But if war is really unavoidable, then we can only end the war as soon as possible so that more people can survive. ’

‘After this year’s development, MS technology has been improved to a certain extent. ’

'Relying on the performance of the Freedom Gundam, it is no longer possible to continue to give Yude the same suppressive power as before in this era of the world. ’

‘Sure enough, we have to continue to develop new machines so that we can regain our absolute dominance. ’

‘I just don’t know. Being virtuous means relying entirely on the world’s own development to develop new machines. ’

‘It’s better to combine the technological power of Youde’s world to create a new type of compound machine in this world. ’

‘And the source of those technologies is not easy to explain to Mr. Uzmi. ’

‘Let’s ask about the virtuous attitude later. ’

While Lux was thinking, Durandal excitedly held Lin Youde's hand.

"Well said. As expected of Prince Kira. He is indeed a hero who has experienced the last war. He sees things thoroughly."

After praising Lin Youde, Durandal said seriously: "War is about to come again. Perhaps this is inevitable."

"After all, there are many people on earth who still want us adjusters to die."

"Although a truce was signed before, many of us actually understand that this is only a temporary truce."

"As long as there is an excuse, the war will start again."

"Of course we are well prepared here, and we have also developed a new type of machine just in case we need it in case of emergencies."

"But if the new aircraft we develop here is taken away by the enemy, it would be better to destroy it directly than to be taken back by the enemy to enhance the enemy's strength."

"What we currently have between P.L.A.N.T. and Earth United is only a slight technological gap."

"Once this gap is smoothed out, we will repeat the mistakes of the last war and be ruthlessly crushed by the opponent's sheer numbers."

"At that time, the only thing that can save the situation is a weapon of destruction like Genesis."

"To be honest, I don't really like to pin the hope of the survival of all the people of P.L.A.N.T. on such horrific weapons."

"So, Prince Kira, can you please help us defeat the three new machines that were taken away by the enemy?"

As soon as Durandal said this, Lin Youde and Lux ​​were immediately shocked.

Lux looked at Lin Youde in surprise and thought: 'Is this deliberately set by the system? Or is it just a coincidence? ’

'Youde said before that he wanted to find an opportunity to defeat the three new Gundams and obtain their body data. ’

‘In the end, the opportunity came not even an hour later? ’

'What on earth is this...'

While Lux was thinking, Lin Youde was also shocked and asked in surprise: "Speaker Durandal, you want me to help you defeat those three new Gundams developed by ZAFT, did I hear you correctly?"

Durandal nodded heavily: "Yes, Prince Kira, you heard me right. That's what I said."

Lin Youde was thinking quickly in his silent heart.

'What's the meaning? Not letting the Phantom Pain troops take the three new machines back and destroy them directly? ’

‘If it’s going to be destroyed, then why do you have to direct it yourself, deliberately leak the information, and let the machine be snatched away? ’

‘What on earth is this old fox planning? ’

Durandal's proposal was too sudden, and based on Lin Youde's performance of Durandal in the original work, Lin Youde was confident that this old fox must be planning something.

It's just that there are too many things and they are too urgent now, and Lin Youde can't calm down and think about it carefully.

When Durandal stood up and bowed slightly to request again, Lin Youde had no choice but to stand up and help Durandal up.

"I see."

Without much time to think, Lin Youde finally agreed.

The new human's telepathy cannot detect many of Durandal's emotions. This old fox was so calm that Lin Youde was sure that he was calculating something.

But Lin Youde is also planning to defeat three new Gundams, complete hidden missions, and obtain new body data.

His own goals did not conflict with Durandal's request, and even completely overlapped, so Lin Youde did not refuse.

After getting Lin Youde's agreement, Durandal showed a relieved smile.

"In that case, please leave it to Prince Kira."

"After the Freedom Gundam was shipped, the body has not been adjusted."

"Prince Kira can drive directly."

"I will coordinate other things."

"After I catch up with those enemies, I'll ask Prince Kira to wipe out those troubles."

In response, Lin Youde responded: "Do your best."

As he said this, Lin Youde muttered to himself: 'What kind of plan does this old guy have? No, we have to discuss this with Lux. Otherwise, I always feel uneasy...'
