Chapter 1828 Schneizel's Horrifying Discovery!
The decisive battle between the Earth Federation Forces and the Britannian Empire has begun.
The Earth Federation Forces did not conceal this massive and protracted decisive battle; in fact, they openly approved some news media to send war correspondents to the front lines to accompany the various field units of the Earth Federation Forces.
The reason for such generosity is nothing more than this.
It's all just to let the world witness the fate of conspirators and ambitious individuals who deliberately instigate conflict and push this complex and chaotic world into an abyss of no return.
Amidst the booming sounds of artillery fire, the Earth Federation Forces' mobile suit units advanced steadily, coordinating with the ground armored and infantry units, gradually destroying all the various fortifications the Imperial Army had built on the front lines.
During this process, the Imperial Army was naturally unwilling to watch its painstakingly built defenses be destroyed, and it organized several large-scale armored forces to confront the Earth Federation Army's mobile suit units and ground armored units in an attempt to break the deadlock.
However, despite having some advantages in mobility, the Imperial KMF forces, which were severely inferior in armor and firepower, often failed to even get close to the Federation's MS forces and were shot down by the hail of bullets, shells, and even rockets.
In less than a day, the Britannian Empire had lost two-thirds of its defensive line on the southern front. The entire line was torn apart by the Federation's mobile suit forces, making it impossible to mount any effective resistance.
The only consolation was the central defense line under the command of Bismarck, the first knight of the Empire.
After successfully repelling the first wave of MS troops with the power of GEASS, Bismarck gradually felt the pressure.
Because the Earth Federation MS forces that had been repelled seemed to sense something, they stopped launching attacks and instead began their offensive within the maximum range of their heavy firepower equipment. They did not seek to annihilate Bismarck, the first knight of the Empire, but only to use endless firepower to restrain him.
The barrage of shells and missiles did not drive Bismarck to his doom.
But Bismarck's heart gradually grew cold as he relied on the GEASS, which allowed him to foresee the future and temporarily maintain his invincible position.
He could sense that there was a pair of superior eyes watching everything happening on this battlefield, watching him, the first knight of the empire, leaving him nowhere to hide.
"Who is it? Who saw through my GEASS?!"
Somewhere in Chabro, Schneizel watched the frontline battle reports on television in silence.
Half an hour earlier, he had received approval and been notified to meet the renowned Colonel Ming at a certain location.
Unexpectedly, upon meeting, Schneizel was taken aback by Anya (Marianna), who was following He Ming and CC.
"Minister Anya? You've defected to the Federation?"
Kanon, who had come with Schneizel, asked instinctively.
"No. I am not Anya."
The other party denied their identity and then turned their gaze to Schneizel, greeting him in a tone that Schneizel found very familiar, but couldn't quite place.
"Long time no see, Schneizel. So many years have passed, and you have indeed grown into the kind of person we imagined."
"who are you?"
Schneizel frowned.
"Who I am is not important. What matters is you, Schneizel. I want to see what choice you, who are not attached to anything, will make?"
After playing the riddle-maker for a while, Anya (Marianna) retreated to C.C.'s side.
"Your Highness Schneizel, it's an honor to meet you."
He Ming casually walked over to the sofa and sat down.
Such a casual attitude made Kanon frown, but Schneizel raised his hand to stop Kanon's attempt to uphold royal authority.
"I have long admired you. Colonel Ming, the Punisher of Crimes, a hero of humanity, please allow me to pay tribute to the hero who saved so many people!" Schneizel walked to the opposite side of He Ming, bowed, and then slowly sat down.
In terms of attitude and etiquette, Schneizel's performance was impeccable.
“Your Highness Schneizel, if you are looking to negotiate peace on behalf of the Britannian Empire, you have come to the wrong person. I do not have the power to stop the war.”
He Ming directly denied the possibility of peace talks.
"Colonel Ming, you flatter me. I have no intention of negotiating with you or the Earth Federation. I simply want to see for myself what kind of person could inspire my brother to have the courage to raise the banner of rebellion against our father."
Schneizel understood that peace talks were impossible, so he decided to reveal his true thoughts and try to break the deadlock.
"So, now you see?"
He Ming asked in return.
"Yes. I saw it. And I understand. However, there is still one thing I don't understand."
Schneizel nodded, indicating that his wishes had been fulfilled, but then he turned his gaze to Anya (Mariana) standing next to C.C.
"please say."
Schneizel's action undoubtedly meant that he had seen through something, or had remembered something.
"Colonel Ming, do souls exist, and in what way does a person's soul reside within another's body?"
Schneizel's question startled his advisor, who instinctively looked at the prince he served, his face showing a mixture of apprehension and hesitation.
“Kanon, don’t blame me. This is such a horrific thing. But now, I’m sure it really happened right before my eyes.”
"Clap clap~"
The conversation between the master and servant drew applause from He Ming.
"As expected of Schneizel, who once defeated Lelouch and is still feared by him to this day. Such keen insight is truly terrifying."
He Ming's praise, to some extent, also acknowledged Schneizel's speculation.
His gaze was fixed on Anya (Mariana), waiting for what was to come.
“Speak for yourself, Mariana. Your Sharuru has already taken action. After this, I will definitely lead a team to Kage Island to stop him. If you have anything to say, or anything you want Schneizel to do, just say it.”
He Ming laughed loudly and generously indicated that the initiative had been handed over to Anya (Marianna).
"Aren't you afraid I'll have Schneizel kill you on the spot?"
Anya (Marianna) scoffed.
He Ming raised his hand, and the emblem representing the CODE lit up.
"Although I don't think much of this thing, if you dare to let Schneizel kill me, this emblem would be a very good gift."
"Heh! C has entrusted the wrong person with the world!"
"Likewise! Compared to someone like me who utterly despises you, you are the villains who want to destroy C's world!"
