Chapter 1391 Return to the Universe!
Iris's arrival caused the radiation cloud covering Victoria Airport to suddenly dissipate.
The support troops that had been kept out by radiation were finally able to quickly reach Victoria Airport along the reopened route and road.
When the support troops walked out of armored vehicles, planes, and even land warships with resolute and brave expressions and eyes that were willing to give everything, they were surprised to find that the radiation scene they imagined did not exist.
After the radiation threat was dissipated, Victoria Airport returned to its former busy state.
Truckloads of supplies continuously drove into Victoria Airport under the command of ground crew, and then unloaded the goods into designated warehouses according to orders.
The soldiers and technicians on the mission wore protective clothing and set out from Victoria Airport in a small team in accordance with the requirements of disaster management regulations. They headed towards the scheduled construction area of the second orbital elevator. After conducting multiple rounds of environmental testing and disaster elimination, they re-determined the start date of the construction.
Amid the scene that had become bustling again, the Polaris, which had been lurking on the seabed, finally arrived and stopped in the dry dock on the side of Victoria Airport to receive a new round of supplies.
"This is really surprising! Guests from an alien civilization."
When Iris descended from the sky and appeared at Victoria Airport, it could be considered a semi-public appearance in front of a few people.
However, the people who know about Iris's existence are limited to senior core personnel from various countries who have in-depth cooperation with the East Asian Republic.
In addition, most people in Victoria Airport still don’t know how the radiation cloud covering the sky above Victoria Airport dissipated. They just subconsciously speculated whether the Solar Energy Construction Alliance had come up with some new technology.
Feng Yun personally cleaned up the captain's room and welcomed the distinguished alien visitor, then brought a glass of orange juice to Iris.
"Thank you very much! We don't have a human digestive system and can't digest these foods."
Unfortunately, the little tricks that had allowed Feng Yun to always be successful in front of his own daughter were met with a polite rejection from the alien guest.
"Ah! This..."
Feng Yun smiled bitterly, then brought the orange juice to his mouth and took a sip.
"This is really embarrassing. General He, why didn't you tell me the guests' preferences in advance?"
He Ming raised his eyebrows and glanced at Feng Yun with disdain.
"I'm so sorry! Iris is a metal life form. What carbon-based life forms are used to may not be suitable for them."
Feng Yun shrugged his shoulders, put the cup aside, and then straightened his expression.
"Victoria Airport is gradually getting on track. Next, should we..."
What a nod.
Junius 7's re-moval was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
Even with the existence of Iris, He Ming, who had already made arrangements for Junius No. 7, was surprised by the ability of Blue Cosmos and World Tree to survive.
Although the current situation is still under control, further action is indeed needed to avoid further complications.
"Feng Yun. Has the Space Army sent any new intelligence?"
Feng Yun reached out and pressed the projection button on the desktop.
As the holographic projection lit up, a picture recorded by a space fleet from the Solar Energy Construction Alliance appeared in front of He Ming and Iris.
"It's that high-energy beam."
As an eyewitness at the scene, Iris immediately recognized where the images came from. "Have you found where they are hiding?"
He Ming looked at Feng Yun.
"Well, that's right. According to the results of the measurements of the various detected values, the high-energy beam that drove Junius 7 to move is likely hidden in a remote area between L3 and L4, and may have used optical camouflage technology with phantom particles as the carrier."
Feng Yun’s answer made He Ming’s eyes fixed.
"It doesn't sound like good news."
Feng Yun shook his head helplessly.
"I know what you are thinking, General He. After all, in our memory, the last big guy with similar technology was the Genesis created by ZAFT. If a similar big guy is hidden in the remote space between L3 and L4, I am afraid no one will be able to sleep peacefully."
"Get ready! Head for the universe! I'll leave this to Special Envoy Cheng."
"Wait. That's not right!"
As soon as He Ming finished speaking, Cheng Yi appeared outside the door.
"General He, you are so dishonest! As a great figure, shouldn't you be here to ensure the opening ceremony of the second rail elevator?"
"I'm sorry! The universe needs me more than here. Besides, neither the World Tree nor the Blue Cosmos has the time to care about what's going on here. Junius 7 will reach the Yakin Duvi Line in a few days."
"By then, it will be another big battle, right?"
Cheng Yi showed a helpless expression and sighed.
"Well! I wish you every victory! As for me, a weak scholar, I will stay here to dig the foundation pit for the orbital elevator."
Hearing this, He Ming and Feng Yun looked at each other and burst into laughter.
The war around Junius 7 has not stopped.
As Junius 7 got closer to PLANT, the Earth Federation Fleet, which set out from the Moon Base or was deployed to patrol various space domains, swarmed in and joined the front line to protect Junius 7, preventing the ZAFT fleet led by Minerva from intercepting Junius 7's advance.
The battle has lasted for 48 hours.
During these 48 hours, the ZAFT fleet involved in the battle did not have much rest. The combatants' spirits and physical strength were severely depleted, and the ammunition and energy of the battleships and MS were almost exhausted.
If this continues, not only will we not be able to continue the battle, but even the fleet's navigation will not be guaranteed.
Talia, with a tense expression, suddenly felt dizzy and almost lost control, but she tried her best to barely keep the last bit of consciousness.
"captain!?"
In a trance, Talia seemed to hear the exclamations of Arthur and others.
She wanted to raise her hand to signal everyone not to panic, but she fainted the next second. She didn't know how much time had passed before she woke up and found herself lying in the medical room, being stared at by a serious doctor with a reproachful look.
"Captain Talia! Why don't you value yourself? No, why would the Speaker let you go to the battle in person? You are pregnant! What you should do now is stay at home and take care of the baby instead of sitting in the battleship and fighting!!"
"Doctor, I'm sorry! But, I have to join this battle! This is not only for PLANT, but also for him/(him/her)."
Talia's expression changed slightly, and she placed her hand on her stomach and said firmly.
