Under the Mask
Chapter 670 Under the Mask
Driving the car arranged by Zaft, Cruze left the port and turned his eyes slightly to look at the scenes on both sides of the road.
Everywhere he looked, there was peace and tranquility, as if the already intensifying war caused by the two major forces of mankind in the outside world did not exist such a peaceful scene.
Facing the comfortable air blown by the climate control system, Cruze's lips slightly raised and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Today is still a day of peace!"
Driving down the highway from the port to the city, what appeared in front of Cruze was a scene playing a beautiful girl singing a beautiful song.
Listening to the clear singing voice even in the middle of a busy road, the smile on Kruse's face became brighter and brighter.
"Haha! Today, Her Highness the Diva Princess is still as beautiful and lovable as ever!"
The red light ahead turned on. Kruse stopped the vehicle, relaxed his body, leaned on the chair, raised his fingers slightly, then lowered them again, tapping the steering wheel as if beating time.
But soon, Kruse stopped this little action, and the smile on his face gradually turned cold.
"But what can it do if the singing is beautiful? This world cannot be saved by singing."
When the green light turned on, Kruse started the vehicle, turned, and drove towards the location of the Ministry of Defense, never focusing on the beautiful singing.
Because, later on, a piece of news that shocked ZAFT and excited Cruze spread throughout the Ministry of Defense.
The moment he stepped into the door of the Ministry of Defense, Kruse noticed the whispers from around him.
Cruze did not deliberately lean in to listen or communicate. Just by walking among these people, he was able to hear the full story of the news that could devastate ZAFT.
"MS? Earth jointly developed MS?"
Cruze's movements did not pause, but he walked step by step towards the office of Defense Committee Chairman Patrick Sala according to his usual rhythm.
"Huh? How can it be a new star?"
Hearing the name mentioned in the whispers, Kruse almost stopped and asked about Xinxing, but Kruse couldn't help it in the end.
Moreover, under Cruze's calm appearance, there are thoughts that are constantly surging.
From some channels, Kruse vaguely grasped a piece of information.
The Earth Alliance is planning to build their own mobile suit, and Brigadier General Halbarton is constantly circling among the Earth Alliance's top brass, striving to secure the resources to develop the MS.
Cruze is aware of this information.
Moreover, Kruse also relied on this information to make a bold prediction. The place where the Earth Alliance will manufacture MS will definitely not be on the Earth, let alone among the colonial satellites under the control of the Earth Alliance, but very likely. It may have been placed inside a third-party colonial satellite and constructed in secret.
However, before this prediction was confirmed, Kruse actually heard that the Earth Alliance had completed their mobile suit construction plan and achieved corresponding victory.
no doubt.
This is shocking news!
"You're here! Captain Cruze."
Entering the office, Cruze saw Patrick Sala, the Chairman of the National Defense Committee, who looked tired but still had sharp eyes.
"No need. Come here."
Patrick raised his hand to stop Cruze from saluting, and instead picked up a document and handed it to Cruze.
Cruze took it and opened it. His eyes hidden under the mask suddenly burst into light.
Compared to the whispers heard before, the information recorded in this document is more detailed. "I believe you have already heard about it when you came. The Earth Alliance has already created their own MS and repelled our attack in the space domain where the L4 Nova is located. Just with the four newly offline MS, And judging from the battle records at the scene, these four MSs only used two MSs to allow our fleet to retreat. "
Kruse closed the document, put it respectfully back on the table, straightened his back, and waited for Patrick Sala's next name.
However, the order that Cruze was waiting for was not for Cruze to go to Nova, but for him to rest and recuperate and use this time to form his own troops.
"Chairman, this?"
Cruze was a little confused.
Patrick smiled coldly, raised his hand and pressed a button on the table.
A picture lights up on the wall.
The man in the center of the picture, surrounded by numerous microphones, is no stranger to Kruse.
Uzmi Nala Asghar.
The supreme leader of the United Arab Emirates.
However, compared with how he usually appears in interviews, the supreme leader of Orb does not seem to be in the press conference center that Orb always uses.
"Did you notice?"
The sneer on Patrick's face gradually grew.
"Chairman, what is this?"
There was no sound coming from the screen, but Cruze was able to guess that what the Orb supreme leader said was not what Patrick wanted to hear.
"Ah."
Patrick nodded slowly, turned off the screen, leaned back on the chair, and said in a deep voice.
"A few days ago, at the invitation of the East Asian Republic, AUB sent a visiting delegation headed by Uzmi Nala Asghar to the East Asian Republic for a three-day visit on state affairs. The picture you see is the first day of its completion Press conference held after the visit.”
Kruse remained silent, waiting for the next step.
"This press conference was taken by some commentators as a sign that Orb was about to leave neutrality and turn to the United Earth. But Siegel did not think so."
Patrick raised his eyes, glanced at Cruze who remained silent, and then continued.
"The reason is that at this press conference, the spokesperson of the East Asian Republic and Uzmi Nala Asghar jointly issued a statement. The East Asian Republic will join hands with the Austrian government in its own name to implement the Austrian The currently constructed orbital elevator - a solar wireless energy output system with Tianzhi Yuzhu as the main body - is planned to provide energy supply to some areas within half a year."
"National name?"
Kruse keenly captures the key point.
"Yes. In the name of our country! The East Asian Republic did not propose cooperation with Orb in the name of the United Earth. Instead, it proposed a joint plan in the name of its own country. And because of this, Siegel insisted that this was not It’s a sign that Orb breaks away from neutrality and joins the Earth Alliance.”
"How naive!"
Cruze said coldly.
And this attitude happened to make Patrick quite agree with it.
As everyone knows, Cruze is laughing ferociously in his heart.
