Chapter 1949 The Profound Meaning and the Promise!
"What...what happened?!"
Not to mention Baron Asura, even Colonel William found it unbelievable.
He was one of the people who personally witnessed Doctor Hell and America forming an alliance.
On the day the alliance was signed, he witnessed firsthand how America's proud tactical mech force was utterly destroyed by the steel monsters the enemy called mechanical beasts.
Although the opposing side deliberately avoided vital areas such as the cockpit during the battle to demonstrate their alliance stance, it is undeniable that the mechanical beasts they released possessed unparalleled combat power.
However···
However···
Those mechanical beasts that toyed with tactical machines like children didn't even have a chance to stand in front of their opponents for a single round before being sliced in two with a wave of their hand?!
Is this world just too crazy?
Or is he dreaming?!
"Hehe. It seems Asuka has really learned a lot! Shinji, you should learn from her!"
On one side of the northern front, the maid Ren nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at Shinji Ikari, who was constantly looking through binoculars, and whispered some instructions.
Shinji Ikari pursed his lips and muttered to himself.
"If Unit-01 were here, I could do it too. I've also mastered the essence of the Dongfang Bubai style."
"Snapped!"
Before Shinji Ikari could finish muttering, he was flicked on the head.
"The secrets of a martial arts style aren't only usable when piloting a machine. The person, and the heart, are the key to mastering those styles! Shinji, you must remember that!"
After giving Shinji a serious warning, Ren patted him on the head.
"Also, don't treat Unit-01 as a tool. You may not understand it now, but you will understand it one day. When that day comes, you will understand why the master made you come to my side to learn the secrets of the school."
Shinji Ikari opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he remained choked up and couldn't utter a word.
However, to his relief, the Northern Front launched a full-scale attack just as Asuka was causing a ruckus in her Unit-02, which greatly demoralized the enemy, and thus resolved the awkward situation he was facing.
As the mobile suits carrying the MS soared into the sky, a land fleet, mainly composed of heavy fork-class large land battleships and supplemented by three large pallet-class land battleships, roared and led a mixed land force composed of mobile suits and KMFs out of the northern front and launched an attack on America's defenses.
Looking at the sandstorm and the torrent of steel advancing through it, Shinji Ikari wished he could join in, but Ren, his master, forbade him.
"Master Ren, which move from the school's secret techniques did Asuka just use?"
Seeing that he couldn't participate and to avoid feeling itchy all over, Shinji Ikari quickly used this as an opportunity to distract himself.
"That doesn't lie in any of the techniques within the school's secret arts. It's probably a technique that Asuka created by integrating her own ideas with the secret arts, a technique that belongs to her alone."
"A self-created technique?!"
Shinji Ikari's eyes widened immediately.
"Yes. That's right. Judging from its appearance, it should be an offensive move created by Asuka after fusing the AT field with the secret technique of her school."
Lian smiled with relief.
Although Asuka often encouraged herself with slogans like "I am a genius" during training to complete the training exercises, it now seems that Asuka is indeed a genius. "Is that so? The AT field can also be used for offense? I learned from NERV's technicians that the AT field is the strongest defensive measure of the Angels, and it is precisely because of the existence of the AT field that most human weapons cannot damage it."
Shinji Ikari pondered for a moment before voicing his doubts.
"Can a means of absolute defense truly be transformed into an offensive means?"
“Anything is possible. Shinji. Before I came here, did you really think that humans could fight against mobile suits with their bare hands? Or even dismantle a mobile suit into eight pieces in the blink of an eye?”
Upon hearing Ren's words, Shinji Ikari was speechless.
On his first day learning the secrets of the school from Ren, perhaps as a show of force or to prove the authenticity of the school's secrets, Ren dismantled an 18-meter-tall AI-controlled GM II with his bare hands right in front of Shinji Ikari and Asuka.
Even though he had been studying under Ren for a long time, whenever he recalled that day when the beautiful woman who often wore a maid outfit dismantled the steel Titan with her delicate hands, Shinji Ikari would always feel a sense of existential doubt.
Is this world too crazy?
Or is it that his values make it difficult for him to accept the current situation?
"Hehe. Don't get too caught up in these details. Look, Asuka didn't dwell on these problems; instead, she immediately grasped the essence of her school's secrets. Shinji, both I and the master have high hopes for you! We believe you can do it too!"
Shinji Ikari subconsciously raised his binoculars, watched Unit-02 running wild on the America Line for a while, and then nodded vigorously.
"Well, I'll try my best."
As dawn broke, the smoke of battle drifted back and forth on the morning breeze above the America defense line. The prime minister, who had been sitting idly all night, finally had his moment.
When Kenes placed the battle footage taken on the northern front in front of him, the prime minister, who had attempted to completely control the young emperor through marriage, finally slumped in his chair, staring blankly at Kenes. Kenes even noticed that Kenes's once well-groomed hair was gradually turning gray.
At that moment, Kenneth revealed a satisfied smile.
As he said, verbal exchanges are too hypocritical; it's much more satisfying to settle things with real guns and bullets.
For these cunning old foxes who are full of bad intentions and speak in riddles, simply presenting all the results and evidence directly in front of them is more effective and will shut their mouths of lies.
"Your Excellency, are you prepared to face the Emperor's judgment?"
As the first rays of morning light entered the palace, He Ming walked into the back garden and delivered the good news of the night to Emperor Jiang Lihua.
"Your Majesty, from this day forward, no one will hinder you anymore. You are now free to build this country according to your own ideas."
Jiang Lihua opened the document He Ming had sent, glanced at it, nodded slowly, and said earnestly.
"Thank you, Colonel Ming. I and this country have always been taken care of by you, resisting the invasion of the BETA and now eliminating the parasites that are eroding our national strength. Such kindness is something that I and the entire nation can hardly repay."
Looking at Jiang Lihua's serious and stern face, He Ming laughed loudly.
"No. Your Majesty, didn't I say before that in this chaotic and complex world, every additional stable and friendly country or power is a great help to us? Therefore, there is no need to be obsessed with how to repay kindness; just focus on building this country well."
Empress Jiang Lihua stood up, mimicking the military salute of the Earth Federation Army, and solemnly saluted He Ming.
"I will do it! Colonel Ming, even if it costs me my life, everything I have, I will do everything I promised."
"Great! I look forward to that day."
