: A Messy Situation

Chapter 1401: A Messy Situation
What kind of heartless person would make such a cruel and outrageous decision?
Polaris, or rather the various media outlets that were directing the world's attention to the ZAFT fleet and the civilian fleet, did not know that at this moment, the PLANT mainland was already littered with unconscious people.

The entire PLANT is in a state of complete functional imbalance and is completely unable to respond effectively to any situation.

It can be said that this moment is the most dangerous moment for PLANT.

Even Yakin Duwei, who was regarded as the last line of defense by PLANT, has become useless.

The person who knew all this sat powerlessly on the steps in front of the Supreme Council building, looking tiredly at the blond man standing at the bottom of the steps.

Time flies.

This child, who was born out of someone's ambition, has grown into a handsome man, and, in Gilbert Durandal's opinion, the handsome man in front of him is a healthy person.

"He cured you?"

Lei hesitated and was about to speak, but was stopped by Gilbert Durandal.

"Don't bother. I understand."

Gilbert Durandal looked up at the elevator in the center of the city that rose into the sky and led to the endless void, and suddenly laughed out loud.

"I guess the general has arrived! So, are you ready to deal with his wrath?"

When the bright green particles reappeared, the Polaris once again enjoyed the speed boost from the ELS version of the GN Solar Reactor.

It has to be said that when experiencing this extraordinary speed once again, everyone on the Polaris seemed exceptionally calm. Some even found an opportunity to walk to the observation deck and try to take a commemorative photo of the ELS version of the GN solar furnace attached to both sides of the Polaris.

"General. Will we be able to build such an engine in the future?"

Feng Yun pulled his hat, a hint of longing in his eyes.

To be honest, every once in a while, the GN Solar Furnace can be used in a special mode to burst out at speeds several times faster than normal. How can you not love it?
"We'll talk about it later. Right now, the most important thing is to solve the problem at hand."

He Ming originally intended to find an opportunity to reveal the GN Solar Reactor to the East Asian Republic, but not now.

The most important thing now is to deal with Junius 7 and the Earth United Fleet.

"But···"

Feng Yun was a little hesitant.

He Ming waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter. Regardless of whether it was really a trap or not, Junius 7 and the Earth Alliance are our targets. Originally, Junius 7 was to be disintegrated under the pretext of Lacus's homecoming journey, and turned into tiny pieces of rubble that could not threaten the Earth."

In addition, the Earth Union is a goal that the East Asian Republic and the Solar Energy Construction Alliance must overcome.

Otherwise, the Earth Federation's space fleet, which has been secretly developing during several years of peace, will pose an extremely dangerous threat to the development of orbital elevators and solar power generation systems in the next hundred years.

Now, with the intervention of the so-called World Tree, it is indeed a subtle opportunity for the Earth Alliance to reveal its trump card at such a moment.

That is, the fact that this opportunity was a trap set by the other party made He Ming somewhat unhappy.

"Sir, if it is as you suspect, I am afraid that even the PLANT mainland is in a similar crisis."

Salamantini suddenly made a guess.

"Yes, it is very likely. The other party's methods are very cruel and ruthless."

He Ming agreed with Salamantini's guess. "If that's the case, why did the Earth Alliance fleet stay at the edge of Yakin Duwei's defense line instead of just rushing in?"

Feng Yun also raised his own doubts.

"This is where the other party is cunning. Rod Jibril. This man who regards the existence of the Adjuster as an existence that must be eliminated, I am afraid he has fallen into the other party's trap."

"Keep going! Get to Junius 7 as fast as you can and accept the interest for now. Then come back and settle the accounts with him!"

As interest, He Ming was still very happy to wipe out this space fleet that assembled most of the Earth Federation's forces.

As for the final account, the other party will never be able to escape.

"Yes! General."

After the space region where Junius 7 was located no longer had to face the repeated attacks of the ZAFT fleet led by the Minerva, the Earth Federation, which was ordered to protect Junius 7's advance, finally got a break and began to rest urgently, preparing for the next tough battle.

After all, the pressure brought by the East Asian First Fleet, which was gradually replacing the ZAFT Fleet's offensive position, was enough to suffocate the Earth Union.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense.

Even though both sides kept a sufficient distance and exercised restraint, all media present knew that the war between the Earth Federation and the Solar Energy Construction Alliance headed by the East Asian Republic might be about to begin.

Wide Serenity, Observation Deck.

Naga looked at Lux seriously.

"Ms. Lacus, please do not go to the fleet without permission. It is very dangerous there."

Lux nodded, acknowledging Naga's words, but she also had her own ideas.

"Naga. I must go. Even though it's very dangerous."

"I refuse! Ms. Lacus. My mission is to protect your safety!! Right now, both the PLANT civilian fleet and the ZAFT fleet are out of control, and all the people on board are suffering from fever and other signs of suspected diseases."

"In this case where the source of infection is unknown, I do not recommend or allow Ms. Lacus to board a civilian ship or a ZAFT warship."

Lux moved her lips a few times, with some unwillingness in her eyes, but she also rationally and calmly accepted Naga's refusal.

"Hey. Naga. What do you think happened on those ships?"

Lux gave up the idea of ​​visiting civilian ships or ZAFT warships, but that didn't mean she would ignore her sick compatriots.

Naga hesitated for a moment, but finally expressed her guess.

"I once asked the medical staff assigned to the Minerva. According to their description, it is very likely an unknown reaction that caused the body's immune system to overreact."

"It triggers an overreaction of the body's immune system? Is this a viral invasion?"

Lux was stunned and asked quickly.

Naga shook her head.

"I don't know. But, once Your Highness arrives here, you may know the answer. Your Highness has a lot of experience in the field of genetic research. I believe you will be able to make some inferences."

"Really? It seems that we can only choose to wait."
