Gundam SEED: Eastern Enlightenment

Lin Chu was sitting in the submarine, and the reminder tone of mission completion rang in his ears.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and saving the Archangel at the critical moment. I will be rewarded with three opportunities to choose talents without level."

In this way, your talent selection opportunities will accumulate to six times.

It's a pity that there is a follower following her around and she can't make a choice. Frey doesn't know if it's because she has arrived in a new environment or because she is the only female soldier on the ship, but she has been following Lin Chu since she arrived at the submarine mothership.

"General, when can we fight? Aren't those ZAFT ships still following the Archangel?" Frey came over and asked.

The sonar on the Dolphin backpack is more advanced than the sonar of all current aircraft. Before setting off, Tian Xin had already moved the sonar on the Dolphin backpack to the battleship.

Therefore, now also following the Archangel, Lin Chu's submarine carrier knows the location of the ZAFT submarine carrier, but the ZAFT submarine carrier does not know the location of Lin Chu's submarine carrier.

"Frey, don't be anxious. Let's wait until they attack the Archangel, then we can go up."

"But what if they don't attack the Archangel?"

"Don't worry, Frey. They will attack the Archangel once more before it returns to the air defense circle of the Alaska headquarters. Otherwise, why would they keep following the Archangel?"

ZAFT's submarine carrier is of the Bosgolov class, a high-speed ship, so it kept following the Archangel closely.

"But…"

"Don't worry. If they don't attack, I will take you to seek revenge on the Holy Shield after the Archangel enters the Alaskan air defense circle."

After hearing Lin Chu's words, Fulei finally felt relieved.

Lin Chu waited until late at night before finally sending Fulei to bed.

Lin Chu sternly rejected Frey's idea of ​​sharing a room with him. He liked Gundam, and secondly, he was a general now. How could a general go out to fight and sleep with a woman?

I can finally hide in my room and choose my talents.

"System, select talent."

"Choose one of five talents without level

......"

The first time, there were no good talents, but I saw the Solomon. Light Energy Concentration series of talents that appeared a long time ago, and the Solomon. Violent Barrage talent.

Solomon. Violent Barrage: The machine you are driving converts 50% of its own energy into unlimited firepower of the machine's live ammunition weapons within ten seconds, and can pass through the subspace gate. Solomon will hit the target.

Lin Chu was a little hesitant. Except for a blueprint for the Azure Duel, the other talents were of little help. But as for Solomon's Violent Barrage, he rarely used even the Light Energy Aggregation talent now, mainly because the energy consumption was a percentage. With his current strength, he could cope with the needs of the battle without this talent.

And the talent column is not enough.

But given the nature of the system...

"System, is there any upgrade route for Solomon's system talent?"

"Have."

"Let me see."

The system brought up a clear upgrade route. Lin Chu took a look and decided to choose this one.

……

While Lin Chu was selecting his talent, everyone at the Actaeon Electronics Industries factory in Alaska was working overtime to build the machine.

"Really? It was too late to make the dagger, and all the second-generation GAT machines were stolen. Fortunately, all the information was there, so we were able to make these three machines in such a hurry."

"Okay, let's ask Colonel Sutherland to transport it away!"

Several trucks loaded three machines, which were exactly the same as the three Gundams: Disaster, Forbidden, and Robbery that were stolen by Lin Chu.

After the machines were stolen, Raziel began to throw money at Actaeon. In just two days, because all the machine data was still there, all three Gundams were copied.

Raziel also asked Actaeon to continue to increase the scale of production of the dagger.

The Atlantic Federation's G Plan already had data left over, so copying the machine was not difficult. Even though the Archangel had not reached Alaska, the Dagger had already begun secret mass production as scheduled.

At a military base in Alaska.

"Sutherland, why did you call us here so late?"

"I think you should take a look at what's on your desk first."

Several colonels picked up the things on the table, which were the photos of Lin Chu appearing in the afternoon driving the Disaster Gundam and the Robbery Gundam.

"Hmm? Is this the stolen machine? Where was this taken?" Someone saw the Disaster Gundam appearing in the photo.

"It was our stolen machine. The stolen machine appeared outside the Orb territory, on the battlefield between ZAFT and the Archangel. Under the attack of ZAFT's new machine, the Archangel was saved in time."

Sutherland crossed his hands on the table, looking at the information on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Is it the one that captured the Eurasian Federation's Artemis Fortress?" Another officer saw a photo of the Decisive Gundam on the mothership, but it seemed a little different from the photo of the machine that attacked Artemis.

"That's the machine. It has been improved since the last battle. It's even more powerful after the improvement. It can ignore fire blockades and defenses within a certain distance and directly strike the target."

Sutherland looked at the Decision Gundam. ZAFT's Decision Gundam was okay, although it was very strong, but he had the defensive stance on the Forbidden Gundam that could distort beam attacks and could be converted into a fortress. Moreover, the light wave shield technology was also being developed into an improved version. By then, the light wave shield would be attached to the target surface, like outer armor, and then that damn wormhole would not be able to bypass the light wave shield.

What he was more worried about was the analysis in the intelligence, which showed that there were new forces stirring in secret.

"Archangel? Those two machines actually went to rescue the Archangel?

Sutherland, how did you get this information? I remember that we had given up sending anyone to pick up the Archangel, didn't we? "

"This is the intelligence we got from ZAFT. It's absolutely reliable."

The Atlantic Federation believes so much in the intelligence coming from Cruze's channel because they have discovered that the target of ZAFT's breakthrough plan is indeed not Panama, but Alaska. Although Cruze has been conducting tests near Panama with his troops, the Atlantic Federation has discovered based on intelligence that Panama's plan is all bluffing.

"Okay, so what did you want us to do?"

"Have you all seen the last intelligence analysis? I think the intelligence is right. I suspect that the East Asian Republic is doing something behind the scenes. Orb may have colluded with the East Asian Republic."

The intelligence that Cruze passed on to Alaska not only analyzed the existence of a third force, but even directly pointed out that it might be the East Asian Republic.

The reason is that the former duel pilot was East Asian, and the newly appeared duel dagger is obviously a mass-produced model of duel. Cruze's intuition has always been sharp.

If it was really Orb, there would be no need to rush to fight and lose four machines to save the Archangel outside the territorial sea. In terms of distance, only the East Asian Republic is the most suitable. Because ZAFT is preparing for the war in Panama, all areas of the Eurasian Federation are under blockade, and it is impossible for them to silently cross such a distance and appear outside the territorial sea of ​​Orb.

Sutherland was a little bit unconvinced when he looked at Cruze's information, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt it made sense.

"This is ridiculous. I think it's Aub who is behind this.

Because the Duel Pilot is an East Asian, I suspect that the East Asian Republic cannot be established. I know the father of that child. Although he is an East Asian, he grew up and studied in the Atlantic Federation and has no contact with East Asia. If this reasoning is also valid, then how can the Strike Gundam piloted by the Adjuster not be a ZAFT person?"

An officer shook his head.

"Although the East Asian Republic is a huge force, what is its specific strength? I believe you all know it. If you said it was the Eurasian Federation, I would even doubt it. But if it is the East Asian Republic, Sutherland, are you sure about the reliability of your information?"

Another officer also did not think that the East Asian Republic, which had been suppressed for decades, would suddenly rise.

"Is this a smokescreen from Orb? Although the East Asian Republic is also a powerful force, they have always been suppressed by us. They are also our allies. They were even asking us to buy Mobius yesterday!

Haha, I gave them all the old stuff in the warehouse myself. After all, we will have our own MS soon. "

The quartermaster laughed as he finished speaking.

"But how do you explain this machine? Orb probably didn't get any information about the GAT project, right?"

"Haha, Sutherland, your information is too outdated. I know that the Scrap Merchants Guild has always been very close to Orb. They picked up the arm of the Thunderbolt Gundam on the battlefield of the Eighth Fleet a while ago and sold it to Orb. How can you be sure that this machine is not Orb's?" The intelligence officer told him the news he knew.

“But with just a Thunder Arm, can you make a mass-produced machine capable of dueling in such a short time?

ZAFT was able to copy the machine because they stole our machine from the beginning."

Colonel Sutherland expressed his doubts.

"Then how can you be sure that the Duel Gundam was leaked from the beginning?

After all, there are many things on it that are not included in our design?

Rather than suspecting the East Asian Republic, it is better to suspect Orb. Heliopolis is a satellite of Orb.

The heretic machines of the Scrap Merchants Guild were also picked up in Heliopolis. These heretic series were stolen from us by Orb and modified.

The Duel Gundam may not be modified by them, and how do you know if your source of information will also sell a copy of the G-Project aircraft information to Orb?"

The intelligence officer expressed his opinion. He was an intelligence officer, so he naturally knew what the East Asian Republic was doing.

There were no abnormalities in the main scientific research bases and important personnel of the East Asian Republic, but they got the information about the space wormhole weapon from somewhere and are conducting research on it.

Although Lin Chu gave Solomon's plan to others casually like giving away cabbages and radishes, this technology is actually top secret in all forces. The intelligence officer was able to know about Solomon's plan in the East Asian Research Institute thanks to the fact that he had developed spies around important professors in the East Asian Republic. However, there was no way for the spies to leak such top secret information. They only knew that the professors were researching this thing.

In his eyes, there are no secrets at all when it comes to important people in East Asia, which is why he is so confident.

The East Asian Republic certainly knew that it had no secrets in the Atlantic Federation, so sending Tian Jianshe, an ordinary lieutenant general staff officer of the military, to the Southern Fleet was also a transfer. It was normal for an ordinary staff officer of age to be transferred to a military region to retire in name only in the eyes of intelligence officers, not to mention that Tian Jianshe was from the South China Sea Fleet.

In East Asia, all persons entering the Morning Star Base have to go through multiple rounds of screening before being approved, and their communications and outings are then monitored at all times.

After talking to several people, Sutherland also dispelled his doubts about East Asia.

"You might as well ask your insider at ZAFT if he can get the wormhole weapon. I know that Dongya got it from somewhere and is also researching it.

Apart from this incident, I was a little surprised that other parts of East Asia are still as unimpressive as ever.”

The intelligence officer shrugged.

"This may not work. If it were possible, they would have given it to us long ago. This kind of thing is top secret."

Cruze really had no way of getting Solomon's plan. Although Lux had shown it to Cruze before, he couldn't remember it all. This kind of thing was top secret, and as a combatant, Cruze would only get into trouble if he cared about it for no reason.

No one would suspect him if he leaked ZAFT's strategy and machine combat information, after all, he is the commander in white.

"Then we'll have to get it ourselves!

Sutherland, has the new machine been built? I think we can try to snatch the new machine ZAFT. This machine is still in the ocean near Orb, which is a good opportunity.

And Orb may be able to teach him a lesson as well."

"Isn't it too hasty for the new machine to go to Orb like this? We still don't know Orb's true strength?

Why not try to find a solution from the East Asian Republic?"

Sutherland felt that even if he could strengthen humans, he didn't know if he could defeat so many mass-produced machines on the Orb side.

"Do not.

There hasn't been much progress on the East Asian Republic side. Taking action against our allies may not cause too much gossip. We still need the resource support of the East Asian Republic and cannot fall out. Perhaps we can consult the East Asian Republic when there is no other way.

Haven't we already mass-produced our daggers? This time, let the 1st and 2nd Mobile Battalions go with us."

"Ah, but weren't those two brigades going to be shipped to Panama?"

"Obudu already has two mass-produced models, so there's no need for us to hide any longer. We'll have enough time to go to Panama after the battle anyway."

"Okay, I'll report it." Sutherland was just about to adjourn the meeting when Raziel walked in unexpectedly.

"The old guys above have agreed. I will lead the team this time. I have wanted to teach this arrogant country a lesson for a long time."

Raziel had been extremely annoyed since the machine he had reserved was snatched away. He had been spending money on Actaeon for the past two days just waiting for this moment, and had already sought consent from the higher-ups.

"You're leading the team?" Sutherland was a little surprised.

"Do you have any objections?" Raziel asked Sutherland with a smile.

"No, you can lead the team. In this case, I will mobilize the troops as soon as possible and we can set off tomorrow afternoon."

Sutherland knew that Raziel was essentially a madman, so he couldn't be provoked. If he wanted to lead the team, he could lead it.
