【Respect】The Beautiful Future

Zhou Fangzun drove the Winged Lion to break through the last barrier before reaching Mt. Narita. The tall steel body turned into a red arc at high speed, leaving the alliance mechs that hadn't had time to attack and exploded behind them one after another. .

Kusuhara led the fifth team, which can be said to be unimpeded in chasing Zhou Fang's footsteps. The winged lion has already gone up the mountain, and there is no longer any defense on the mountain. However, their cover work has not been fulfilled in the true sense along the way. .Kusuhara just raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his cheeks, and couldn't help sighing in a low voice: "Actually, Mr. Zhou Fang doesn't need to rely on any cover at all..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the peaceful situation in front of him suddenly changed. Dozens of Wujin armor-piercing bullets from a distance smashed on the road ahead with a long and narrow flame, and after the explosion, a large forest was swept away. Into the flames.Kusuhara quickly stopped the momentum of his advance, and the fifth team hurriedly followed him to stop before avoiding the unexpected attack.

"How come..." The intelligence team members watching the battle here blurted out in disbelief.

"It seems that the alliance's backup troops have arrived," Kusanagi Izumo stood behind him, raised his hand to draw a virtual circle on the projected map, then turned his head and said to Munakata: "It should be the winged lion that caused the opponent's commander They would rather continue fighting us on the main battlefield and send reinforcements over there to stop them."

Munakata Reisi nodded in agreement, and he issued an adjustment order without much thought: "The Winged Lion continues the task alone, and the fifth team blocks the route up the mountain, waiting for the order to be withdrawn."

"Understood!" Takeshi Kusuhara replied loudly.

All members of the fifth team turned around, and the tacit understanding of countless trainings allowed them to quickly set up a perfect defensive formation and face the rushing golden troops head-on.

The steel splashed a large amount of sparks in the rapid friction with the ground, and the sound of guns and explosions continued.Kusuhara had just resisted a KnightMare of the Alliance and pushed it into the opposite side to disrupt the opponent's attack. At the moment when the shell pierced through the steel, he felt in a daze that he heard a loud noise from the top of Narita Mountain. No one's attention.

"Winged lion equipment detectors have sent data!"

"20 meters of rock penetration!"

"No. [-] penetrating electrode successfully implanted!"

"No. [-] penetrating electrode successfully implanted!"

The news of the smooth progress came one after another, and the intelligence personnel in charge of the report couldn't hide their excitement.

"Your Excellency, we have simulated the effective range of the mountain collapse based on the data, and the basic error is no more than one percent." Enomoto turned his head and said to Munakata. What appeared in front of him was the simulated state of a 3D map, symbolizing the range of the collapse. A large swath of crimson covered the entire stronghold and three-quarters of the Union defense.

"Very good." Munakata Reiji nodded, and the corners of his lips curved slightly inadvertently, "It's almost time to end. Then... let's start with the third team and the ninth team, and send the safety coordinates to the team leader , Keep your strength and retreat."

"Yes!"

"Sir, the Federation's forces on the main battlefield have begun to retreat!" the adjutant said impatiently as he opened the door of the ambulance.

"...Huh?" Ovidia couldn't hear it clearly, and subconsciously turned his face to the side to ask questions.Zhou Fangzun's blow happened to cause a small part of the mech to explode. He was lying on the operating table at this time, and the medical staff were carefully removing the bloody fragments from his forehead, reminding him in a panicked voice not to move around.

The adjutant walked quickly to his side, directly opened the terminal to project the battle situation, and saved the effort of explaining.Ovidia was taken aback, then frowned and ordered: "Don't chase, let the army maintain defense inside."

The adjutant turned on the communicator and quickly issued an order. The golden logo symbolizing the alliance mecha on the projection of the main battlefield also stopped at the defensive position, and the federal troops almost completely retreated from the battlefield.Ovidia withdrew his gaze, and his sarcastic eyes fell on the roof of the car, "How many times does Reji Munakata plan to use the same trick? I'm not stupid enough to be fooled every time..." As soon as the words fell, his face suddenly changed up.

Ovidia sat up suddenly and startled the medics. He waved his hand to let the medics back away first, covered half of the bandages on his forehead, stared straight at the adjutant and asked sharply: "The troops next to Narita Mountain Woolen cloth?!"

"It's starting to retreat too!" The adjutant replied while calling out the screen from the front line.

"Where is the Winged Lion? Where is the Winged Lion?" Ovidia asked after searching the screen to no avail.

"When Team R rushed over, there was no sign of the Winged Lion." The adjutant replied in embarrassment.

The wound on his forehead was gushing blood again, dyeing the snow-white bandage bright red, Ovidia pressed his forehead tightly and closed his eyes.His heart ached like it was being burned by flames, and violent emotions filled his chest and tore his nerves into a bloody mess.

This war is crucial, and it is impossible for someone to withdraw troops so easily.

Munakata Reiji is a smart person, and the possibility of repeating the old tricks is too small.

...But maybe this time it was like this, a trap set for his prudence?

Then why did he put a troop on the other side of Narita Mountain to go in deep?

wrong! !wrong! !There must be something he overlooked! !

Where did they hide that huge destructive mech? !What the hell is he thinking? !

It's completely impossible to guess.

A splitting headache.Ovidia took a deep breath trying to calm down his emotions.

To be honest, he once thought that if it was a peaceful time, he would definitely try his best to make friends with that Brigadier General Munakata, but in the end it was just a ridiculous thought that passed away in a flash.They are enemies at both ends of the cruel battlefield, and that insignificant admiration has long been eaten away by defeat, humiliation, hatred and grief.

Ovidia opened his eyes again, he looked towards the direction of his distant hometown, his gaze was as hard as iron, he tore off the bandage and ordered again:

"Group L, Group S, and Group D will go to Narita Mountain with me, Group R will follow the troop closely, and all other groups will stand by. Let's see what the Federation is planning."

"The situation has changed! The fifth team is being pursued!" The intelligence officer reported in a voice.

"Project on the big screen." Munakata said.

The scene of the battle was shown on the big screen according to the order. The fifth team was resisting while slowly retreating to a safe position. The data map on the side shows that they are about to leave the effective range of the collapse as the fifth team retreats.

"The preparations for the water vapor explosion have been completed," Kusanagi Izumo reminded, "If they are forced back with fire suppression, they can be activated."

"In that case, the fifth team will have no way to leave." Seri Awashima said disapprovingly.

Kusanagi Izumo smiled apologetically, "Yes...but I can only think of this way."

"Your Excellency..." Awashima looked at Reiji Munakata.

Munakata was silent, his lips were tight, and there seemed to be something surging in the violet eyes staring at the big screen, and it seemed to be the illusion of Seri Awashima.

In just a few seconds, the situation suddenly changed again.

The Fifth Squad halted its retreat and turned to meet the heavy artillery fire from the Upper Union.Judging from the movement on the data map, it seems that he is dragging the opponent back with difficulty, with the determination to die.

"Your Excellency!" Kusuhara Tsuyoshi's clear voice sounded, his voice trembling uncontrollably, but his tone was firm, "I'm sorry for violating the retreat order, but this is the wish of all the fifth team, please continue the mission!

Please continue the mission and start the explosion.

Reiji Munakata did not answer.

"...Your Excellency!" Kusuhara took a deep breath, suppressed the choking in his throat, and roared with unprecedented passion and pride:

"Willing to fight for you until the last moment!"

Willing to fight for you until the last moment!All the pilots of the fifth team shouted this sentence along with their team leader, even though Reji Munakata couldn't hear them.But it does not matter.

Everyone, including Reiji Munakata, was stunned for a moment.

They chose to use their bodies as walls to block the Alliance.These most rebellious soldiers who enlisted at the time of the infection, full of dissatisfaction with the Federation, have grown up to learn to sacrifice and become the most loyal soldiers.

The man's deep and deep voice sounded just right in the earphones: "...Munakata?"

Zhou Fangzun and Munakata Reiji are separate channels. He doesn't know what happened, but he is confused by the fact that the activation order has not been issued for a long time.

Zongxiang's fingers hanging by his side trembled slightly, he clenched his palms tightly and loosened them again.He turned around and looked in the direction of Narita Mountain through the window, raised his hand and pressed the headset and finally spoke:

"start up."

The red winged lion stood on the top of the mountain, and the mechanical arm was raised to buckle the part of the penetrating electrode exposed to the ground. A mechanical female voice sounded:

"Work hard to confirm."

"Radiation Fluctuation Organization."

"Maintain the external load state."

Dark energy waves entwined, appeared and disappeared on the surface of the steel.

"Outward transmission."

Zhou Fangzun pressed the start button, and the data on the dashboard instantly rose to the top of the chart. A crimson light group burst into tens of millions of light beams in the palm of the winged lion, and a hazy mist shrouded the ground.

The ground trembled violently, and the broken rocks jumped and flew, and the pieces of rocks burst into pieces with the mud gushing out of the ground in the next moment, and rushed down the mountain with a huge noise.Like a ferocious beast imprisoned in the mountain waking up, struggling and roaring to break through everything, submerging the entire world in collapse and destruction.

It was too late to escape, and no one could match the speed of the disaster.

Kusuhara suddenly remembered his first conversation with Munakata Reiji.I feel that the evaluation of Munakata at that time was not entirely correct. He was indifferent above the world, but at the same time he was gentle enough.

It is difficult for ordinary people to perceive, a kind of broad tenderness.

He let go of the operating lever, leaned back in the chair and smiled at the overwhelming darkness.

You have become someone who can be recognized by that person, Ah Gang.

There was silence in the command vehicle, only the notification sound of the dense disappearance of the mechas.

After a long time, Munakata Reishi turned around, his expression as calm as ever.

Enomoto Ryuya opened his mouth a few times, and finally made a sound:

"In line with the estimated range."

"All the signals of the fifth team disappeared."

"Your Excellency... we won."
