Gundam SEED: Poetry of Tomorrow

Chapter 214 The light of creation under the disaster of nuclear explosion

"Everyone, you can leave now!"

"what?"

"This voice?"

"WTF?"

In the astonished eyes of Gurot and the other three people.

The Divine Gundam that approached at some point separated countless small fragments from behind.

No, it's not a fragment, that's the barrel.

The muzzle of the wandering and flying gun quickly flipped and shuttled through this dark battlefield.

Unexpected beam attacks poured out from all directions.

behind it.

Justice and Liberty Gundam.

Aslan and Kira started a full run of the meteor system.

Rumbling--

Just for a moment.

The whole world was illuminated by a bright light, and the light of the nuclear bomb caused a momentary pause on the battlefield.

a while.

The light is scattered and the world turns to darkness.

Ahead, PLANT's colonial satellites still stood upright, as smooth as new.

"Intercepted?"

"what the hell?"

"this·····"

The three Oluga couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they looked at the nuclear bomb and the light that were instantly emptied.

"Ino, Aslan..."

In the cockpit of the Duel Gundam.

Yitzhak couldn't help but feel a burst of gratitude in his heart when he looked at Justice and Freedom, who came to support them, and the Eternal, which came from afar behind.

It was the gratitude of being redeemed from hell.

Lux and the others really want to stop this.

They are not fools who only talk and let others deceive them, nor are they cowards who are afraid of war and run away.

"Soldiers of ZAFT, it's time for us to start our counterattack——"

Just when Yitzhak was secretly moved, Ino's voice was transmitted to the cockpit of every ZAFT soldier within reach: "Anyone you see will be killed, and anyone who blocks you will be killed, for ZAFT!"

"For ZAFT!"

"For PLANT!"

"kill!"

The soldiers, who were already stimulated by the nuclear bombs at Boyaz and Gibraltar bases, were already on the verge of collapse and madness after witnessing the atrocities of the other party dropping nuclear bombs on PLANT.

Now under the urging of Ino, he has completely lost his mind.

Even if a few people occasionally managed to remain calm, their nerves were stimulated by the madness of their comrades and compatriots.

"die!"

The Disaster Gundam's beam and Olga's voice arrived in front of the Divine Will Gundam at the same time: "I must kill you completely today!"

"Ha~"

Ino, who raised his hand to block the beam with his shield, sneered. The whole world was reflected in his indifferent pupils when he raised his head.

Ahead, the trajectory of the Calamity Gundam remained the same as before.

"You can leave now."

Accompanied by Ino's soft whisper.

The dragoons' cannons ejected from their muzzles.

Beams of light flooded into the sky like a dense rain and rushed towards the Calamity Gundam.

呵呵味——

boom!

In almost a face-to-face collision, the head and left arm of the Disaster Gundam were directly penetrated by the beam.

"Varied--"

Beep beep!

Oluga, who was stunned by countless beams of light, was still immersed in shock.

I heard a piercing alarm sound coming from the cockpit.

"Your friends will come to see you soon. Remember to walk slowly on the road——"

baah~

That annoying voice sounded in his ears, but it was too late for him to hate it.

In the world that gradually slowed down, the armor in front of the cockpit turned red at some point.

This stunning red light seemed to light up his memory world.

In a trance, the picture of struggling in all kinds of pain and torture in a pure white laboratory, in a muddy mountainous area, became clear.

A familiar companion in the laboratory died at his feet.

The roar of the equipment and the smell like disinfectant were nauseating.

Pain, crying, calm, indifferent, crazy...

"Oh, what a damn life -"

Olga sneered and pressed a certain switch.

The beam saber also penetrated the TP armor of the cockpit of the Calamity Gundam at this time, and the scorching energy instantly captured his consciousness.

The two machines passed by each other.

The Calamity Gundam's nuclear engine also burst into bright light at this time.

Woo~!

However, the sudden piercing siren made Ino unconsciously alert.

He looked at the strange heat source coming from the aircraft behind him on the radar.

Ino's pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly drove the machine to run away: "Yitzhak, Aslan, go quickly!"

"what?"

"This heat—"

Almost at the same time as Ino reminded him.

Yitzhak and others also discovered the piercing alarm sound of heat source signal detection.

"Damn it, Oluga, you really deserve to die!"

"Oluga, you bastard!"

The Hunting Gundam and the Forbidden Gundam also started running away at this time without looking back.

But they hadn't gotten far yet.

Behind, a huge, almost nuclear-bomb-like explosion of heat suddenly passed through, and an unprecedented scene emerged from all around the Calamity Gundam.

Amidst the roaring sounds.

The bodies of the team with slower reaction speed were overtaken by the heat radiation of the nuclear explosion and turned into ashes.

The Divine Gundam, which has not completely left the area, also suffered heavy damage.

Nigel and others who fought against the Hunting Gundam and Forbidden Gundam were also affected.

"Nuclear...nuclear bomb?"

The sudden strange heat caused everyone in the Eternal to be on guard unconsciously.

However, they soon discovered that this heat was not a nuclear bomb, or that the heat radiation was very similar to a nuclear bomb, but not as huge as a nuclear bomb.

"Calamity Gundam loses feedback!"

Inside the Lord Angel, the soldiers responsible for monitoring the battlefield quickly reported the news they had just received.

"Damn it!"

Murtagh actually guessed it when he saw the light.

The Calamity Gundam, the Hunting Gundam, and the Forbidden Gundam are not just battery-powered machines, but are equipped with nuclear energy.

Although he has high expectations and confidence in his biological CPU.

But who can say for sure what happens on the battlefield, and at the same time, it is also intended to give some unexpected effects at certain times.

So they made some small tricks into the nuclear engines on the three aircraft.

The nuclear engines of these three aircrafts are not so much engines as they are small launchable nuclear bombs.

Once an accident occurs, the nuclear engine will directly transform into a nuclear bomb and bury all the surrounding aircraft with it.

Even if the fighting situation is not optimistic.

They can also remotely control the body to automatically detonate the nuclear engine inside the body, which is the so-called nuclear self-destruction.

"Where did this self-destructing infantry come from?"

Inside the God's Will Gundam, Ino couldn't help but complain as he looked at the various feedbacks inside the body.

He really didn't expect that someone would use a nuclear bomb as an energy source. No, it should be said that he never thought that the nuclear engine of the Calamity Gundam would be made into a small nuclear bomb.

Normally, who would put such a thing on a machine body?

Thanks to God's will, it is fast enough and has strong armor protection capabilities.

Otherwise, if this nuclear bomb exploded, Ino would almost be trapped in it and die.

In Yakin Duwe's control room, Patrick Sala constantly received the latest battle status.

"A small nuclear bomb whose body explodes?"

Patrick Sala couldn't help but sneered: "A bunch of guys who only know how to be clever."

The explosion heat of the Calamity Gundam and the condition of Lux Klein were reported together. Aisalia Jour, who reported the news, seemed confused.

The people who betrayed PLANT and even handed over the anti-neutron jammer data to the United Earth are now supporting PLANT——

However, Patrick Sala believed that this was a farce directed and performed by those people;

Deliberately causing a crisis in PLANT, and then showing up at the critical moment, showing his ability to save the country and the people, and finally returning home as a hero, and then jumping into the political arena in place of his father.

It's a pity that they forgot that they are still here.

As for the nuclear bomb, it was just a meaningless struggle.

Had it not been for the obstruction of Councilor Amalfi, he would have wanted to leave this method on the five aircraft.

"——Don't worry about them, our preparations have been completed."

Abandoning his thoughts, Patrick Sala sneered.

The past is the past.

Those people bought a little time for themselves, so they deserved to be thanked.

However, he was not going to let it be manipulated.

The operator in the control room began sending warnings to the communications machine.

"Genesis enters its final stage. All ships must evacuate the ray as quickly as possible!"

In the empty space behind Yakin Duwei, something seemed to be starting to operate.

Patrick Sala also called directly to Aisalia Jiul who was on the military satellite: "Withdraw the troops! Genesis is in its final stage!"

Aisalia Jiuer in the picture nodded nervously.

"The entire army evacuates the ray...?"

"This is the beginning?"

Ino, Yitzhak and others also received orders from the fortress base at the same time.

But it's different from Ino's enlightenment.

Yitzhak was stunned for a moment.

Recently, a rumor began to circulate among ordinary soldiers like Yitzhak that the military had been secretly developing some kind of ultimate weapon for a long time.

But none of them expected that the secret weapon would actually be used on this day...

"quick--"

"Stand back, Aslan, Kira, let the Eternal leave the battlefield immediately, Genesis is coming!"

Yitzhak came back to his senses and was about to speak when he heard Ino speak first.

The words that were stuck in his throat made Yitzhak pause for a moment before he said, "Well, Ino is right!"

As for whether Aslan and the others are friends or foes, when they helped intercept the nuclear bomb, Yitzhak had already regarded them as teammates by default.

They were once teammates.

"ZAFT forces are retreating."

On the bridge of the Archangel, Sai's suspicious report sounded.

Only then did Malu and the others realize that ZAFT's fleet and MS were indeed retreating simultaneously.

But if it was said that the retreat was to regroup, this retreat would be too abrupt——

"Discovered laser voice communication——"

"Eternity, evacuate the battlefield immediately. Genesis is coming. If you don't want to die, leave quickly!"

"Ino Kamal?"

"Ino?"

"What is Genesis...?"

Everyone on the Eternal and Archangel were surprised by the news and voice.

At this moment, Jackie exclaimed:

"There is a huge object behind Jakin Duwe!"

Suddenly, an image was shaking behind Yakin Duwe.

As if breaking through the moon covered by dark clouds, a huge circular surface gradually emerged in the reflected light.

In the command room of Yakin Duwei, the launch procedures of Genesis are also being carried out rigorously.

"Phase transfer system activated."

Following the operator's instructions, the giant iron-gray mirror suddenly shone with silver light, as if it had been suddenly polished, and the base also turned white at the same time;

"This blow will bring the light of creation to my adjuster! - Launch!"

It fell with the order of Patrick Sala.

A huge amount of nuclear energy is emitted from the storage box behind the Genesis mirror base, and the intense flash is projected onto the primary reflector of the front cone.

After the light energy bounced off the giant mirror, it converged into powerful twice-reflected energy in the blink of an eye, and shot out toward the battlefield like lightning.

The Earth's warships on the ray were all shrouded in that white light, and the energy gradually melted, shattered, and exploded them.

After hearing what Ino said, Kira and Aslan stepped back temporarily, but were still a little confused. It wasn't until they saw the huge energy shot through the space where they were just now that they opened their eyes wide in shock.

The huge beam just passed through the space area where the main force of the Earth Army was deployed, but in just a short moment it burned away all the materials there, including mobile suits, ships, and even rubble and waste.

In the empty space after the light energy dissipated, there were still a few half-destroyed battleships, unmelted mobile suit wreckage, and countless hot debris.

Many of the ships that survived were almost unable to move, and many more were soldiers who had completely lost their will to fight.

Strong interference roiled the universe for a while, blocking all speech.

The power of this single blow, which destroyed hundreds of warships and nearly ten thousand aircraft, was so terrifying that both camps could only stare at the tragedy in confusion.

"——This...this kind...!"

Kira's voice trembled and her teeth clenched.

Why--

There was only this thought in his mind, which kept swirling and tumbling, almost to the point of bursting out of his body.

--why?

Why do humans have to create this kind of thing?

"……Father!"

Aslan's voice came faintly, like a moan.

——To be perfect, to have better weapons, to kill more enemies.

Is this a human dream?

Is this the crystallization of human wisdom?

Rei Yuuki in Yakin Duwei's command room couldn't help but gasp at the tragic situation before him.

The enemy army came with an overwhelming physical advantage, and almost surrounded the entire space area with a dense crowd.

Half of them are now lost.

It was like a big hole had been punched through the center of the entire Earth Alliance, making the fleet look so resentful.

"this·····"

At this moment, Yitzhak and the others couldn't help but froze in place.

Yes, they hate the United Earth and natural humans, but this kind of calm battle and scene that can be called massacre makes Yitzhak and the others feel chills running down their spines.

It's not that they think there's something wrong with them.

It's just that as a normal human being, I feel uncomfortable unconsciously when seeing this kind of picture.

"Hmm...it feels a bit beautiful."

However, when Yitzhak and others were secretly distracted, Ino's voice sounded faintly in their ears.

"what?"

"Ino?"

"you--"

After hearing this, Yitzhak and the other three looked at the half-broken machine not far away in disbelief.

A bit pretty?

The picture in front of me can be called beautiful.

"Eh? Is my communication turned off?"

Ino couldn't help but reply after hearing the calls of several people.

"...What the hell are you doing!"

"Ino..."

Yitzhak and Nigel expressed their concern in two different tones at the same time.

"Compared to the scene of ZAFT soldiers sacrificing their lives for victory, I prefer the scene in front of me. After all, compared to the enemy, the lives of my compatriots and comrades are more worthy of my protection."

Ino thought for a while and made up an excuse for himself on the radio.

Thanks to my quick reaction.

Otherwise, it would be the end of the world if someone labels him the same as Kruse.

Ino's words directly silenced Itzhak and Nigel.

Even Aslan and Kira didn't know what to say.

Because Ino was right. Compared with asking his comrades to risk their lives in exchange for victory, this kind of direct massacre was definitely the right thing to do.

But as a human being, as a normal person.

Faced with this kind of picture, facing the death of the same kind, we really shouldn't say that it is beautiful.

In fact, Ino himself knew this, but for some reason, he felt much relieved after seeing Genesis fire this shot.

"What an inspiring picture!"

In a corner of the battlefield, in the battleship that had been prepared because of Cruze's presence, Cruze sat on a chair and smiled happily: "Human desire is what it is - Speaker Sarah. "

On the side, Matisse, who had listened to everything, calmly shook the red wine glass in his hand.

Taking the tragic scene in front of him as dessert, he silently took a sip of bright red wine.

As for the so-called pity or sympathy——

Sorry, I haven't had this feeling since I was born.

It's this weapon... that really makes people extremely interested.
