Chapter 1718 A New Visitor from Another Time and Space?
The shuttle cautiously navigated through the countless wreckage.
As they ventured deeper into the wreckage, they discovered that the remains of a third-party entity had indeed appeared in the depths of this wreckage region.
"Orange-red paint scheme? Which faction's mobile suit is this?"
Amuro was startled and quickly adjusted the magnification of his binoculars to the maximum, bringing the orange-red wreckage hidden deep within the wreckage of a Salamis Kai into his field of vision.
(Salamis modified)
"Orange-red wreckage? It's a mobile suit we've never seen before. Could it be..."
Hassavi also noticed the piece of wreckage.
As the distance and angle changed, Amro and Hasawi saw more details.
It wasn't orange-red wreckage at all, but rather MS wreckage that was predominantly red with yellowish areas resembling gold in the chest region and joints such as the shoulders.
At the same time, the head that was suspected to have been hit directly by the close-in weapon system was not the Zeon mobile suit that Amuro and Hathaway remembered, and it was even less likely to be the MS model used by the Federation.
"Captain, release the MS."
At that moment, He Ming's voice came through the communication.
"Colonel, we've found something."
Amuro was startled and quickly picked up the communicator to speak.
"Yes, I know. I sensed it! Accelerate immediately after the shuttle releases its components. I'll have Christina cover you."
As soon as He Ming finished speaking, Amro and Hasavi simultaneously felt a jolt of electricity in their minds.
It seemed as if something was rapidly approaching this direction.
"enemy?"
Amro gripped the binoculars tightly in his hands.
If his mech were here, he wouldn't be stuck sitting in the shuttle, waiting for the battle to end.
"Captain Amuro. Our mission is not to engage in close combat with the enemy."
Having witnessed all of this, Hassawi spoke up to offer a reminder.
"Yes, that's right. Lieutenant Mafty. Let's go!"
Amro nodded, gave the captain a briefing, and then Amro and Hassavi immediately turned back to the cabin to protect Nunnally and the others.
"Colonel. There seem to be quite a few enemies."
On the other side, Christina, who was controlling the NT-1 Kai Gundam to leave the cockpit, glanced in the direction from which the commotion came and asked worriedly.
"No. You just need to cover the shuttle's evacuation, Captain Christina. Don't worry about my safety."
Under the continuous control of the control nozzles, the Golden Horn Black Armor's machine successfully took off from the shuttle and quickly deviated from the shuttle's flight path, heading towards the unfamiliar pile of wreckage that Amuro and Hassawi had discovered.
An unfamiliar mobile suit with red armor and gold paint on its chest area and shoulder joints.
With a few adjustments, Banshee Gundam's electronic eyes magnified the unfamiliar MS wreckage on the screen.
"Zanskar?!"
The reason Amuro and Hathaway didn't recognize the unfamiliar red MS wreckage was because it couldn't possibly be something that existed in their timeline.
Instead, it comes from the more distant future, UC0152, in which Bihathavi was located. It was developed by the technical department of BESPA (Ballistic Equipment & Space Patrol Armory), which supports the Zanskar Empire, and is a branch of the Federation Navy Strategic Research Institute located in SIDE2 in the future.
Given this background, Amuro and Hathaway, who are in the past, naturally wouldn't understand the meaning behind this machine.
"Has the Zorroat...Zanskar Empire also appeared?"
The Banshee Gundam adjusted its flight posture continuously, finally arriving beside the wreckage. Watching the red debris being locked onto by the crosshair, He Ming gradually understood where the sensation they had felt earlier had come from.
"Om~~"
As He Ming's spirit stirred, an even stronger sensation extended from the void.
"over there!"
The Banshee Gundam turned and accelerated, flashing through the dense wreckage like lightning. As it passed over the shuttle, it sent an optical signal to the NT1 Kai Gundam to increase its vigilance.
Christina responded with an optical signal representing "strict enforcement".
In the blink of an eye, the shuttle and the NT1 Kai Gundam gradually moved away, eventually disappearing behind the Banshee Gundam.
On the other side, several points of light were moving around in the wreckage, sometimes gathering together and sometimes dispersing and speeding away.
At the same time, each time these points of light converge and approach each other, they can generate a series of sparks and a beam of light that darts around and eventually smashes the surrounding debris into a pile of fragments.
As these points of light swept past the Salamis Kai space battleship, which was pierced through the front half and looked particularly shocking, the white machine, which was being chased by multiple enemy aircraft, quickly stopped by skillfully using its control nozzles, and then turned around to fire two triple shots at the enemy aircraft.
Six beams of light swept across the void in succession, positioned behind the pursuing group. Enemy aircraft that failed to detect the incoming beams in time were hit on the spot and exploded with a bang.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the white machine lowered its body, unleashed its full speed, and quickly hid under the wreckage of the Salamis Modified warship.
"Why are there so many pursuers on Zanskar's side?"
Inside the cockpit of the white mecha, a young man watched the scene before him with slight tension, constantly on guard against an attack.
Although that attack cost the enemy one mobile suit, it won't be the key reason why they gave up the pursuit.
Moreover, as the boy ventured deeper into the area littered with wreckage, he discovered that among the debris were not only the Earth Federation Forces' Salamis Kai space battleship, but also the wreckage of the old-fashioned battleship used by the Principality of Zeon, or the Musai, which he had heard about from his elders but had never seen before!
"The Federation Army is one thing, but why is even Musai showing up? What on earth is happening in this world?"
The doubt in the boy's eyes never diminished.
He was separated from his companions after being engulfed by a blinding white light during that fierce battle.
When he woke up, only his MS—LM312V04 Victory Gundam—was still with him as he faced this world that had quietly become unfamiliar.
of course.
And there are still the ever-present, haunting MS forces of the Zanskar Empire.
"Om~"
Suddenly, a bad premonition arose from the depths of the boy's mind. Under the boy's instinctive control, the Victory Gundam quickly turned around and unfolded the beam shield hidden in its wrist, blocking the beam sword that had cleaved the wreckage of the Salamis Kai battleship.
"Was it discovered so soon?"
While raising its beam shield to defend against the attack, the Victory Gundam quickly raised its gun barrel and, under the cover of the beam shield, fired three shots at the enemy who was wielding a beam saber.
"Buzz!"
The sudden disappearance of the beam shield startled the enemy aircraft, but they failed to notice the gun muzzle hidden beneath it, which had already brought them the light of death.
The moment the beam struck the head, right hand, and chest in succession, it marked another loss for this enemy MS squad.
"Come on! Butcher of the Zanskar Empire!!"
The young pilot in the white suit roared, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.
He was unwilling to face such a dead end before he even understood why he was there.
What angered them even more was that even after being caught up in an unknown upheaval, these Zanskar lackeys continued to hunt down those who resisted them!
