Unexpected situation!
Chapter 1389 Unexpected situation!
This scene caught everyone by surprise.
Junius 7, which had been pushed towards the Earth before, started moving again, but this time it was heading towards the space where PLANT was located.
"What?! Junius 7 rushed towards PLANT?!"
At this moment, the ZAFT fleet was no longer concerned with the battle with the Shadow fleet.
From the moment the first ZAFT MS withdrew from the battlefield and chased Junius 7, more and more ZAFT MS broke away from the battle line and chased Junius 7, which was getting faster and faster.
Fortunately, the East Asia Republic's MS forces were strong enough to suppress all the Shadows that tried to take the opportunity to pursue the ZAFT MS, and destroyed most of their manpower, leaving only those Shadow reserves that had barely arrived to struggle.
"What a lunatic. These people are really a bunch of lunatics!!"
When Junius 7 was pushed again, the commander of the First Fleet looked stunned for a moment, then uttered these words coldly.
"Commander, are you going to pursue Junius?"
the first mate asked.
"No, let's get rid of this AI fleet first. No matter how fast Junius 7 is, it will still take some time to reach PLANT. What we need to do now is to destroy this AI fleet and collect as much useful debris and related intelligence as possible."
The commander's thinking was very clear and he immediately made the necessary decision.
Although the movement of Junius 7 was enough to set off a wave of public opinion, as the commander of the East Asia Fleet in this operation, he was well aware that the arrangement left by He Ming on Junius 7 was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
The offensive suddenly intensified, and the commander of the Shadow Fleet, who was dizzy from the news that Junius 7 was moving again and its target was PLANT, suddenly woke up.
"Everyone! Our mission has become clear! We exist for this moment! Do you understand our mission?"
"Yes! Our mission is to protect the blue and clean sky! To wipe out those evil, despicable monsters from this world!!"
The commander of the Shadow Fleet looked at the image of Junius 7 speeding up with red eyes, and his voice became more and more excited.
"That's right! Now is the time for us to fulfill our mission and realize our long-cherished wish! In order for Junius 7 to gain enough speed, we must buy more time to prevent the ZAFT and East Asia fleets from approaching Junius 7!"
"For this, even if it means sacrificing our lives, we will do it!"
“For a blue and clean sky!!!”
Amidst the angry roars, the Shadow Fleet that had been staying in the rear suddenly stepped forward, rushed into the front line with a will to die and a fearless spirit, and frantically deployed all the weapons they were equipped with.
At the same time, the remaining Shadow machines were recalled through laser communication to cover the fleet's assault on ZAFT.
All of a sudden, such a strange scene appeared on the entire battlefield.
The ZAFT side spontaneously evacuated the battlefield because Junius 7 accelerated towards PLANT and tried to chase Junius 7.
The Shadow Fleet discovered that Junius 7 was moving again. In order to stop the movement of the ZAFT fleet, it attacked decisively, recalled all available forces, and bit the tail of the ZAFT fleet tightly, ignoring the East Asia First Fleet which was located further forward and was frightened by the crazy behavior of the Shadow Fleet.
"I'll be good."
Seeing such a messy scene, the commander of the First Fleet couldn't help but blink his eyes so that he could see the scenes clearly, for fear that he had seen it wrong.
"They are indeed a bunch of lunatics."
The commander smiled slightly, then straightened his face and said seriously, "Notify the Dawn that our fleet is about to pursue the enemy fleet and is preparing to deal with the situation of Junius 7 moving again. Please make a decision as soon as possible, Ms. Lacus Klein!"
"Yes! Commander."
The situation changed so quickly that not only the soldiers on the front line, but even the civilian fleet on the edge of the battlefield, protected by ZAFT and the First Fleet of the East Asia Republic, were caught off guard.
For a while, chaos broke out.
Some wanted to catch up, some kept sending communications, trying to ask the ZAFT fleet including Minerva, and some went directly to the Dawn to ask, trying to understand Lacus Clyne's next move.
Amidst all this chaos, Londo Mina Sahak remained silent, placing himself in the position of a bystander, watching Lux's every move.
"Ms. Lacus, it has been confirmed. Just now, a high-energy beam of radiation was emitted from somewhere in the space behind the Earth and bombarded those structures that seemed to be thrusters."
After operating the watch, Naga gave an answer to the strangeness just now.
"High-energy beam?"
Lux's eyes changed, and she immediately remembered that at the end of the last war, the enemy had used a similar method, shooting a high-energy beam of radiation at one of PLANT's colony satellites, causing it to fall rapidly, in an attempt to destroy human civilization.
And today, several years later, I witnessed a similar method again.
Moreover, the target of the pushed Junius 7 was not the Earth, but PLANT.
If Junius 7 crashed straight into the PLANT colony, it would cause an unimaginable disaster.
This is a foreseeable reality.
But, that is not the reality that is about to happen.
"Yes, Miss Lacus. From the information that the adults have given us, this method seems to have appeared several years ago, right?"
The Naga glanced at Lund Mina Sahak, who was keeping a low profile.
"Yes, that's right. Perhaps that's why the general arranged it that way."
Lux nodded and then spoke.
"Have the Dawn return to the First Fleet. Just say that in addition to pursuing the enemy fleet, I suggest waiting and watching the situation of Junius 7."
"Yes! Miss Lux."
At this time, Lund Mina Sahak had some doubts in his heart, but he also had some vague guesses.
Presumably, the arrangement that caused Junius 7, which had already entered an unchangeable landing orbit and was captured by gravity during the last crash, to change its orbit abruptly and return to its original stable orbit is still in effect.
Otherwise, why would Lacus Clyne act so calm?
Thinking of this, Lund Mina Sahak felt a chill in his heart.
"Could it be that General He's target is not just those lunatics, but the PLANT itself?"
