Phantom Ultimate Steel Bullet TD – Beacon Justice
Chapter 4 – Dramatic Changes! The Night of Artemis – Earth’s First Dust Chapter (1) UCOE sends 30,000 troops to attack the three major colonial cities on the moon’s surface, and Dinky’s steel bullet TD rushes to the moon to support the colonies, and the two sides meet for the first time in the Sea of Tranquility. The first and second wave of attacks are cracked by the Chinese youth. However, the purple and black ‘Raya Leaf’ fleet of fighters put the Mobile Fighters in a difficult battle…
The young man drove away the four fighters that were involved, “They are really like flies that can’t be swatted away, what’s the best way to get rid of them?” The ‘Dragon God Sword’ still couldn’t hit the wing of the opponent’s No.1 plane.
“Master, steel bullets may not have the dexterity with swords to maneuver as agilely as the ‘Raya Leaf’; and flight-wise, they are still not as fast as we are. We may be able to capitalize on that.” ‘Hamish’ suggested, “As for the ‘Kurenai Maru’-they’re easy to handle and as fast as the ‘Raya Leaf’, then we can use them specifically to counter them… …can be recycled first. They can be recycled first.”
“Well! We’ll take advantage of their change in attack formation to take advantage of the gap and lose the ‘Raya Leaf’ to go after the HK and the Land Warrior Ground Army.” The youth understood, and his mind was made up.
Ding Qi recalled the twelve ‘Blasted Thunder Pills’ and put them into the inner cabin.
“Captain, what is this steel bullet trying to do?” Ram wondered.
Tina smiled darkly, “The reactivity of a ‘Raya Leaf’ fighter is better than a bulky steel bullet. The enemy should have realized this and wanted to change their combat style, right?”
The formation began to shift, and a hollow zone appeared in the center of the four fighters.
“It’s now! Charge!” The youth pressed down on the operating lever, increased the engine spurt, and broke in powerfully! No hesitation.
“Huh? Steel bullets…? They’re coming right at us!” Schell yelled.
Asura Zeus’ two arms were extended, and the Dragon God Sword made a gesture to chop down!
The captain commanded, “Get out of the way! If you get hit, you’ll die for sure!”
The fighters scattered in all directions, and the Asura-Zeus sliced cleanly through.
“It’s attempting to lose us! Go after it!” Tina led the group on her tail, four wisps of smoke leaving white trails.
Pricka on the right side of the fleet monitors the motorized fighters’ trail, “That Steel Bomb has extremely impressive speed! We won’t be able to keep up!”
Mra got angry, “What words? Growing others’ ambition and destroying our own? Even if we can’t catch up, we’ll fight to the end!”
The ‘Raya Leaf’ detachment was in hot pursuit. The difference between the front and back was about 300 meters, and the gap was getting wider and wider.
“‘Hamish’, how close are we to the UCOE Mechanized Division?” Dinky focused on maneuvering the driver.
“Eight point five three kilometers.” The computer returned, “Those fighters aren’t dead yet, they’ve been following behind.”
The young man nodded, “Let them follow. We’ll focus on the HKs-they’re the main force behind the other side’s attack on the colony.” …
“Report! Colonial Resistance positions have been spotted three kilometers ahead! There is a large number of troops deployed!” The scout team radioed back with a message.
The Colonel Commander smiled, “It seems to have come prepared…. Have you found any steel bullets ‘Saina’?”
“I wonder where the ambush is? It must be in.”
“You guys keep monitoring. Wait for us to arrive!”
“Yes!” The commander cut the message, “I hope the “Raya Leaf” team can effectively utilize their entanglement function to contain the Steel Bomb TD…
“Sir! It’s been reported that the rear forces have been able to visually see the Chinese maneuver fighters, very close to our troops!”
The Colonel’s expression changed drastically: “Asura Zeus is really a strong enemy! Even the ‘King of Fighters’ can’t stop it! Leave four HK squadrons in the rear to stop the steel bullets! The other eighteen HK squadrons are unaffected. Prepare to fight the underground army on the moon’s surface as instructed!”
The high-speed amphibious tanks were the first to lead the way, followed by the light cavalry ‘Ubek’ machines, and the destructive HK maneuver team.
Dinky looked forward at the HK coalition troops running across the moon, “The formation is really huge! It’s not quite right! Why is the rear army turning around!”
“Master, they’re bound to come against us!” The computer researched.
Two hundred UCOE Heavy Breeding Armor guns pointed to the sky and fired indiscriminately at the steel bullet TDs. The blood-red beams of light were hitting the armor of the mobile fighters one after another.
Typical ‘sea of men’ tactic, trying to win with ‘quantity’. The quality is not as good as the people.
The young man looked fearless, “‘Dragon God Sword’! Sheathe~!” Asura Zeus drew the handle of the sword and the laser blade was released.
“Kill~!” Steel Bullet flipped sideways and rushed down from above, sword light flashed in all directions, and several HK bodies and heads separated and burst on the spot.
“The speed of the steel bullets is too… too ~ fast!” The enemy fighters were scrambling, following the sky-blue cyborg’s blinking shadow and firing their guns, but they got nothing.
Dinky drove his motorized fighters to chop and slash, and in a short while, more than thirty HKs were reduced to pieces.
The rear of the UCOE corps is in disarray – there’s no escape, no fight.
Only then did the ‘Raya Leaf’ fleet arrive, and the sub-captain shouted at the HK brigade, which had suffered heavy casualties, “You guys go first! Leave the steel bombs to us!”
The remnants of HK’s army were defeated in fear and chased after the far-reaching army in front of them.
“Chinese steel bullet pilots, your enemy is us!” Tina hollered.
The Chinese youth frowned slightly, ”These fighters are stickier than twentieth-century chewing gum… and will be potentially big trouble if they are not incapacitated.”
Dinky’s hot blood boiled with the temperament of a steel bullet, “I’m not that simple to defeat! If you want to bully unarmed colonial civilians, you can only step over them by my fallen body!”
“Very well! You do possess the pride of a Mobile Suit Pilot!” The Purple Heart Sub-Commander grunted, “We will fulfill your wish today! Brothers! Go!”
The unit’s four-bladed jabs attacked the Steel Bullet TD without mercy. very venomous close stabs.
The youth retreated in order to advance, leading back more than a hundred meters. “‘Kurenai Maru’-Spread~Out~!” The youth sacrificed twelve sphere railguns.
Dinky maneuvered the Golden Planet Cannons in unison with his mind power, “Fire!” The twelve round cannons rotated in a wheel-type rotation, accurately striking away from the ‘Raya Leaf’s’ first attack.
“Get after them!” The boy commanded the ‘Kurenai Maru’ to pursue the four fighters. He was getting good at driving the six pairs of killer flying weapons, and now the pressure of the ‘Raya Leaf’ fleet being hunted was increasing.
Ram shouted, “Lieutenant! Those spheres are biting into my tail, and all I can do is swing around to avoid them! If we keep fighting like this, we’ll all be shot down!”
“Hang in there! Let’s find a moment to counter them!” Tina panicked.
Meteor catching up with the moon. The four purple-black bodies continued to slice through the air, climbing and descending, never able to throw off the ‘Kurenai Maru’s’ Soul Charm. The frequency of the sphere’s shots increased and became denser, and the left wing of Pricka’s plane was melted by it, losing control!
“Captain! I can’t! I’ll just jump out of the plane, sorry!” He bounced out, and the ‘Raya Leaf’ he was sailing exploded in black smoke, hitting the sand wall head on and blowing up.
The sub-captain was exasperated, “Damn it! Retreat first!” He pulled up his nose and led his team straight up into the clouds, and suddenly the trail was lost.
Dinky didn’t care about the offline enemy pilots. He led a group of ‘Thunderballs’ at full speed to the location of the two sides in the battle – the Kewpie Grassland.
Underground Resistance Army, under the order of the ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’, has stationed a large group of WZ Light Horse Improved Robots and KT Hard Armor Spider Robot Beasts at the border of Sandy Soil and Fertile Soil. The soldiers of the first defense net are looking at the direction of the enemy with their night time high sensitive infrared binoculars in their hands.
“Sir! The smoke rolls and rushes into the sky, and the UCOE forces look like they’re raging!” The spotter was a bit worried.
“Things have come to this point, and there is no turning back for us or Earth! Only to fight on.” The troop commander sighed softly.
The starry sky was suddenly darkened, thick dark clouds covered the area, and hideous spears of electricity lit up the surrounding area.
“It’s going to rain heavily…” Quirrell, a prominent general of the Resistance, was personally in charge of the battle, “Has ‘Sayana’ reached its target point yet?”
The teletype officer replied, “General! Razoli has arrived safely!”
“That’s good!” Major General Quirrell finally smiled, “On the way here, I heard that the Earth forces had suffered a major defeat on landing, what is the correct information?”
“Sir,” the chief of staff, Lieutenant Colonel Quirk, verbally briefed, “it’s like this. The first two waves of the enemy airborne group, analyzed by satellite photography, were stopped in mid-air by a mysterious steel bomb, and all of them were killed. They actually brought in a ‘Raya Leaf’ fighter to help them, and although it was a serious threat to that mobile fighter, it seems to have been driven away. As for how it did it?
The reason remains unclear.”
The Major General bowed his head, “A Mobile Suit… whose name is still to be found… Quirk, do you think… it could be the legendary ‘Steel Bullet’ TD?”
Staff Lieutenant Colonel is not quite sure, “General, the information in hand set is insufficient, my subordinates can not make a definite answer.”
“If it really is China’s steel bullets interfering in the battle…, our chances of winning the war will increase dramatically.” Quirrell could only cast his hopes on the mystery to be proven.
“The enemy is still 1,800 meters away from our forces and within effective range of direct light energy, warp-delivered ballistic weapons!” The spotter reported.
“Since Thor is lighting the way for us, there’s no need to fire a persistent flare ring.” Quirrell gave battle orders, “Attention all teams on the left and right flanks! You will split into two sides to encircle the attacking UC-OE brigade; the central unit will be responsible for fighting the HK heavy robots head-on in a showdown!
“A Bold and Bright Strategic Approach.
The Major General radioed the army, “In accordance with the routine battle plan, the troops will launch a full-scale attack! Attack!”
The right and left flanking troops, like crab-stinged pincers, curved around, slid down the dunes, and fought with the incoming enemy through the defile!
“Report! Our forces are being pinched by the underground resistance!” The detachments in the melee reported back to the center commander.
“Sedation! The opponents are all light cavalry, with the advantage of moving quickly. We rely on thick armor and artillery fire, and the road is long.” The colonel was unperturbed and calm.
Although the colonial army was lightly armed, their attacking power was not limited to the armaments they were equipped with, and they fought in a guerrilla style, moving from front to back and from side to side in an erratic manner. Red and blue beams of light were fired indiscriminately, and sub-proton cannons and sub-micron light cannons fought against each other. Grass clippings, sand, and metal clashes were heard everywhere, and the dark sky was reddened by the sea of fire that followed the struggle.
Victories and defeats are exchanged, and casualties are gradually increasing. The rain is pouring down, but it can’t quench the flames of the battle.
The Major General of the Lunar Army supervised the march of the subordinate center army, “The first and second platoons of the line launch a networked crossfire, three point release every five seconds! Cover the flanking assaults!” He was bold, “Forward! No retreat! Anyone who turns back will be executed immediately! The division commanders will be executed!”
Quirrell has taken Bismarck, the ‘Iron Chancellor’ of the German Empire, as his idol, and has ruled the army with iron and blood – the military discipline has always been strict, and orders are always carried out, which has resulted in outstanding achievements. Even the dignitaries of the ‘Pan-Earth Synergy’ are known for their fear.
The Spider Bug’s jagged cannons spit balls of light downward from above, and when they subside, they are interspersed with cannon blasts from the Moonwatch’s main cyborg, the FJ, which are held in the air, like meteors of flame striking the advancing opponents’ army.
The UCOE’s regular troops are not familiar with the lunar terrain, and even though they have flying day and night cameras to open up their field of vision, they are doomed to suffer when they meet the tricky, highly maneuverable rebel forces – fighting a war in someone else’s backyard, you don’t have to be as familiar with the environment as your hosts, do you?
The commander fretted, ”Everyone attempt to fight in formation according to the mission, don’t be broken up by the enemy! The first troops to break the siege, start counterattacking! We can’t just take a beating!”
The R-type Heavy Armor HK continues to close in under heavy fire, “Return fire!” The column commanders instructed their squads to fire back. The courtesies were reciprocated, no less.
“General, the enemy’s march has been effectively delayed! After forty minutes, we have damaged about eight percent of our troops and the Earth invaders roughly eleven percent.” The staff officer, Lieutenant Colonel Quirk, reported the statistics.
“Three percentage points ahead? That’s not enough! We must widen the gap between our losses so that our army can fulfill the high hopes of the ‘Autonomy Preparatory Committee’. Hold on, everyone!” The calm colonial Major General gave his instructions.
As the two armies go back and forth, the UCOE cyborgs keep searching for breakthrough points and non-vital battle zones, and a small group of HKs tries to drill their way out of the colony’s FJ defenses, only to be stopped by heavy artillery fire. Back and forth several times, back and forth.
“Report Commander! The battle between our forces and the Resistance is at a stalemate, please provide further guidance!” The Earth Army staff officer asked the leader, Colonel.
The colonel gritted his teeth, “Originally, I thought that the colonial forces were far inferior to ours in terms of quality and numbers! I didn’t expect them to be so tough!”
“Sir, I apologize for the ministry’s presumption! Shouldn’t we ask our superiors for reinforcements to strengthen the destructive force?”
“Major! Do you despise my ability to lead the defense? Are we bound to lose the battle? Not necessarily!”
The counselor was obsequious, “No..! I… that’s not what I meant.”
“The situation is clear – a steel bullet ‘Sayana’ in front and a steel bullet TD behind – what makes you think the General will put another force here?”
“This…” the Major Staff Officer could not speak.
“All we can do is to receive the maximum battle results with the battle power we have been allotted. To ask me to ask the commander-in-chief for help? It’s simply an insult to my ability!”
The Colonel’s headstrong ego had dumbfounded the group of staff officers.
“Report! The UCOE has shifted and concentrated their forces to the left side of the encirclement, with several times heavier artillery fire, possibly trying to break out!” The Moonwatch War Information Officer sensed something was wrong.
“Toggle some of the FJs from the rear to distribute them to the left and right to prevent them from attacking from the east!
“Once again, the Major General strategized and dispatched his troops.
The communications sergeant yelled again, “Sir! There’s a large object coming toward our back!
Amazing speed per hour!”
“Find out! Is it friend or foe?”
“It’s the next-generation steel bullet ‘Sayna’!”
“What? How did Lazori take action?”
“And! Satellite photography has captured a picture!” The lady’s officer called up the screen and cried out, “Please, General, take a look!”
“Huh? Is that the Mirage Dream Ultimate Steel Bullet TD from… China?” At the sight of the image, even Quirrell’s calm demeanor was shocked.
Asura Zeus grabbed an early step and rushed within the chaotic army, “Dragon ~ God ~ Sword ~! Sheathed!
“The laser sword was radiant.
With a swing of the Steel Bullet TD’s right arm, four HK Heavy Armors immediately exploded at the waist. Dinky pulled the maneuverers back to deflect the incoming fire from behind. With another arc of the sword, three enemy mounts split in two, all destroyed by fire.
The Colonial General stared in disbelief, “That’s terrible! The steel bullet ‘Sayana’ is no better! The Moon Colony has been struck by another ‘god of death’…”
Under the lightening, Steel Bullet TD was surrounded by a murderous aura, just like the arrival of the Thunder God himself.
The ‘Saina’ killed from the enemy’s front, and the ‘Light Spear of St. Artemis’ turned back, sweeping the incoming UCOE machine army. Under the ring of light, the HK fleet was like a landslide, blown up and destroyed, unable to withstand a single blow.
“Hmph! The newly developed R-type HK of the ‘Pan-Earth Synergy’ is really hit and miss!
“The green-haired youth couldn’t help but sneer as he heard the alarm, “Computer? What’s up?”
Subtitle reads, “A steel bomb of unknown nationality has been spotted joining the battle, possibly…
“You mean…?” Razori’s nerves knotted, “Is… steel bullet TD…?”
‘Yes!’ The computer responded brightly.
“It finally showed up? I really want to fight with it to see how amazing a mobile warrior that can destroy a heavy armored division of the US army really is?” The colonial youth said disdainfully, “It’s just an uninvited guest that came out halfway, if it has real skills, it should take the initiative to find me to compete! Forgive it for helping our side, so I won’t trouble it for now.”
Heavy rain fell in the war zone and the fighting intensified.
Saina’s Battle Aid computer displayed a few more lines: ‘Three fighters are coming out of the dark clouds… Starting to recognize them… It’s the UCOE’s ‘Raya Yeh’ team!
Razori cracked one of the enemy soldiers, and when he saw the appearance of ‘Raya Ye’, he was surprised: ‘At last, the “King of Fighters”, which had been formed in secret, has been born…’! You claim to be able to defeat the steel bomb Sayana, but I’d like to know what you’re basing your claim on?
He stretched the waist fins of the steel bullet, “Forget about the HK unit for now! If we don’t wipe out the ‘Raya Leaf’ fighters, we’ll have a lot of trouble!”
The pilot’s mind was made up, and the ‘Sayana’ lifted off to take on the three strongest foes!
Asura Zeus fought his way through with the ‘Dragon God Sword’, and the UCOE Legion retreated, with the amphibious tanks and ‘Ubek’ light robots being beaten and defeated.
The Colonel Commander was furious and blood rushed to his brain, “How can a steel bullet TD be so hateful! Why can’t we bring it down, no matter what?”
“All troops direct their fire at the Chinese maneuverer and blow it to hell!” As soon as he gave the order, the soldiers turned their spears away from Dinky’s steel bullets.
“Open ~Fire~!” Together with the voice, fire rained down to click on Asura-Zeus.
The body of the steel bullet vibrates violently, and the Dream Metal armor still protects it.
Hamish warned: “Master, according to the development of this situation, at most after 30 minutes, the function of this machine will show a temporary short-circuit phenomenon, the control will fail!”
“How can we just sit back and wait? Of course we fight back!” Tinky tiger whistled.
Steel Bomb TD releases the ‘Kurenai Maru’ from his back, and the twelve flying golden planetary cannons fly up and are under the control of Dinky’s superpower.
“Fire!” Spheres scattered in all directions, thermoluminescent light spat out, and the HK forces surrounding Asura-Zeus disintegrated and crumbled.
The young Chinese man’s eyes shot up with the fire of fighting spirit, “Yikes! ～The mobile fighter’s back wings jetted, and the machine charged forward, laser swords flashing several times, and many of the encirclers fell.
“Never think of defeating Asura Zeus! Kill~!” Steel Bullet TD let out a roar-like counterattack! Running wildly through the battlefield of death!
“Hmm? Steelbomb TD went ballistic?” The Major General snickered.
The Colonial Resistance Army seized the opportunity to mobilize the defenders, and immediately closed in to reduce the scope of the defense, and actively pursued the woeful UCOE enemy, turning from a defensive to an offensive position. Signs of a major reversal began to appear.
The three ‘Saynas’ and the warbird ‘Raya Leaf’ formally met, both sides brushing past and striking first.
“Captain, it’s a moonwatch steel bullet all right!” Pricka alerted the First.
“Coming? Very well! Show ‘Sayna’ what the ‘King of Fighters’ is made of!” Tina hemmed and snorted.
The three planes cut 120 degrees diagonally and staggered, pulling up and dropping straight down, attempting a three-way attack on the moon’s next-generation steel bomb.
The colonial pilots, observing all sides, circled back and attacked the UCOE task force fighters. The violet-black Iris dodged the sharpness of the spear winds and arced away, unharmed.
Lazori smiled faintly, “Actually dodging a move! Let’s see how long you can escape?”
The steel bullets chased after them, and the spearheads of the handles in their hands poked and stabbed the three ‘Raya Leafs’ at a rapid pace, but they all missed by a fraction of a second and a thousand miles, and were unable to hurt them in the slightest.
“No matter how fast I strike, they are capable of avoiding it. Could it be that my attack patterns and movements were all seen through by Precognition?” A sudden thought occurred to the green-haired youth, “If that’s the case, the enemy has indeed made a painstaking effort to study the ‘Sayana’.”
The UCOE fighters didn’t allow Steel Bomb to let up, and immediately fired at the ‘Sayana’. Due to the powerful weapons and the mobility of the ‘Raya Leaf’, Razori and the steel bullets were often out of control and did not achieve anything. The ‘Saina’ took dozens of rounds of artillery for nothing.
Both sides exchanged blows. For nearly an hour, the Moonwatch mobile fighters were clamped down and bound, making no progress at all.
‘Calm down! I have to stay calm…’ The Mobile Suit Pilot thought to himself, ‘If Steel Bullet is so panicked over such a trivial matter, how can he defend the three major cities of the Moon? If they can predict my movements, I must be able to understand my opponent’s as well.
A one-piece molded fighter type, the detailed movement is definitely not as complicated as steel bullets.
‘Perhaps, by observing the command style of their leader’s aircraft, we can get a clue…’ The Moonwatch pilot paid close attention to the movement patterns of the three fighters.
Aircraft No. 1 was in the center, aircraft No. 2 and No. 4 flew left and right, in a triangular column in front of the line, with the sub-captain as the main axis of the battle formation changes.
Tina’s goal was to check the enemy’s behavior, and then the other two teammates, who were the secondary attackers, would take the opportunity to take turns to hit ‘Saina’. In basketball terms – the sub-captain is the ‘guard in charge of the player’, while Scheer and Pricka are in the center and forward positions, never letting the young man in the moon have an opening to score.
The Moonwatch Steel Bombs were indeed overwhelmed by the three ‘Raya Leafs’, and Razori slowed down the pace of his return fire, recording the flight paths and tactics of his opponents in due course, and turning it over to the Battle Aid Computer to explore and find a strategy to crack them.
“‘Sayna’ has slowed down his moves significantly!” Schell was overjoyed.
Prisca questioned, “Shouldn’t the driver be tired?”
“I don’t care! Destroying all types of steel bombs of hostile forces is our vocation, and accomplishing the mission is the only requirement of the team!” Tina didn’t dare to be careless.
“Friendly ground forces are in a dire situation, should we turn around and support them?” Pricka snapped.
The sub-captain said mindlessly, “We just have to concentrate on the steel bullets! The rest you don’t have to think about.”
The green-haired young man carefully read the data listed on the screen, ‘Laya Leaf’ no matter the torque, instant acceleration, rapid climb and other maneuvering performance than ordinary fighters superior to more than ten times, and the fuselage is equipped with a number of flight-assisting jets can be fine-tuned according to the pilot’s needs to the range and oscillation. These features naturally made the steel bullet’s usual maneuvers frequently inaccurate.
The frequency of fire and the missile hit rate of the three enemy planes were surprisingly high, and the ‘Saina’ was still unable to fight back.
”I see…” The green-haired young man suddenly realized, ”If you want to defeat them, you have to get rid of your old habits and tackle the enemy by surprise.”
After considering the thought in his mind, Razori decided that defeating the captain’s seat would be his main goal.
The steel bullets held up the ‘Spear of St. Artemis’, but were in a hurry not to be thrust out. The pilots were tightening the flight paths of the three enemy planes in preparation for a surprise attack.
After all, the sweeping radius of the light spear was limited, so the young man with the moon watch had a change of mind, ‘Then let’s try a newly developed weapon…’
“Good chance! Fire ~Fire~!” The pilot pressed the purple plate button to activate the other weapon.
Four crescent-shaped laser boomerangs-‘Moon God’s Eyes’-shot out from the shoulder of the ‘Sayuna’ without warning, reaching a length of three and a half meters, speeding towards the UCOE’s new fighter, and aiming directly at the opposing team’s sub-captain.
“So… what?” Tina was shocked – it wasn’t in the database.
“Oh no! Dangerous!” The three shouted at the same time.
He scrambled to deflect the wing, but it was too late. The dart blade cut off the right wing of No. 1 at Mach 4.7, and the tail and nose of No. 2 and No. 4 were also in trouble, with black smoke coming out of them! The fuselage spun wildly, shook violently, and was in free fall.
“Can’t fight anymore! Aircraft out of control!” The control computers of the fighters launched a warning.
“Listen up! All flee!” The members of ‘Raya Leaf’ would never make unnecessary sacrifices.
“We didn’t lose! It’s just that the episode didn’t have enough information!” That was the only way Tina could console herself.
The three excellent machines that were built at a high price melted into fireballs and were buried in the muddy fields of the prairie.
The three elite UCOE pilots returned to safety in their jet seats and waited for the Mothership to rescue them, along with Mra, who had been defeated by Dinky some time ago.
Razori eliminates the toughest of his enemies and shifts his focus to the chaotic battle on the moon’s surface.
The Lunar Mobile Warrior swooped down and charged, killing with a fiery spear of light.
When the rain stopped, there was a thunderclap in the sky, and the remnants of the UCOE’s first landed troops were lying in a mess, with ash and smoke curling up. Nearly half a hundred R-type HK heavy combat robots had surrendered. Dinky was sitting in the driver’s seat, panting lightly, his chest heaving slightly. Four and a half hours without a break in the fight.
The dark clouds all opened up and the starlight showed blinking glad eyes.
”Crisis averted for now…” the young Chinese man took off his helmet, brushed the beads of sweat from his forehead, and put it back on.
The enemy’s offensive completely collapsed. One hundred and forty road tanks, 300 light cavalry robots, 22 squadrons and more than 1,000 heavily armored HKs were destroyed by the Steel Bullet TD, the next-generation Steel Bullet ‘Saina’ and the colonial resistance forces. The enemy commander returned in defeat and fled with his men.
The ‘Sayna’ flew in front of the Steel Bullet TD, its pointed spear pointing towards the motorized warrior owned by Dinky.
“The Resistance already knows your identity! Dare I ask if you are the pilot of the ‘Asura Zeus’ out of Earth China?” The green-haired lunar youth barked.
The Steel Bullet TD pilot responded, “Yes! The robot I’m operating is a new state of the art mobile fighter, originating from China.”
“Very well! Although you are considered a friend for helping us defeat the invasion force of the ‘Pan-Earth Synergy’; one day, I will use this to defeat you with the ‘Light Spear of St. Artemis’! There can only be one of the most powerful steel bombs in the entire solar system!” Lazori kept his guard up and had reservations about Dinky’s motives for rescuing him.
The dark-haired young man laughed loudly: “Amazing spirit! Steel bullet ‘Sayona’ is worthy of the well-known, really even the driver’s heart, tone of voice also has the measure of the world’s heroes!” The implication of the words, he did not want to bother to fight who is the first.
“Steel Bullet TD, I hope you don’t act in a way that will upset the residents of the three major cities of the Moon Table. Now that your trail is visible, we are able to grasp any of your behavior. A word of advice─don’t make yourself a public enemy of the colonies.” Lazori’s tone was still not very friendly.
“Thank you for your counsel, my intention in coming here is not to make an enemy of the three major cities of the Moon Table. I only want to curb a senseless war.” Dinky was unwilling to debate any further. “There will be an aftermath. I will still show up once the UCOE dares to send another army into the country.”
Asura Zeus put away the Dragon God Sword and the Blast Thunder Pill, his back wings stretched out, his engines ignited, and his body instantly turned into a bit of flourishing light that dissipated without a trace.
‘So, it seems that the Steel Bullet TD is not here to challenge Sayana. The green-haired young man at least had less to worry about, ‘The steel bullets created by the mysterious Ancient China are just as mysterious… and we’re bound to face each other…’
‘Sayna’ spun the spear of light in his hand and recovered it.
“Sir! I’ll drive the Steel Bomb back to the base for maintenance first! I’ll leave the rest to you!” He reported to Force Commander Quirrell.
“No problem! Thank you, young man!” The Major General smiled, “You’ll be the first to be notified of any new foolishness from the enemy.”
“Understood!” Razori pulled the lever, and the ‘Saina’ lifted off, returning to the special operations base. The first battle ended. …
General Bui Ge, the UCOE’s General Supervisor, was furious and immediately held a review meeting after picking up the remnants of the defeated battle.
The Lieutenant General heaved down the meeting materials, “Look for yourselves! What a shame! How could thousands of heavily armored HK divisions be defeated by a small, ant-swarming Lunar Subterranean Army and run for their lives?” It was falling in front of the Chief of Staff.
“It’s… it’s… it’s… General, it’s all because of the steel bullets!” The Chief of Staff defended himself.
“So what do you mean…? You’re blaming the ‘Raya Leaf’ fighter detachment?” The Commander’s stern and terrifyingly eagle gaze swept down on Tina.
The sub-captain was no pushover, “Sir! We have tried our best to fight with the two mobile fighters, as you can see. It would be a shame for our army if we fled without a fight. Since the four ‘King of Fighters’ have become wrecks, I don’t understand why we are still blaming this unit?”
The Chief of Staff angrily slapped the desk, “You! Who are you to say that we’re fleeing without a fight? How are you any better? You bragged about how amazing you were beforehand, but what happened?”
“Stop it all!” Pei Ge bellowed, “If you have the strength to bicker and blame each other here, why don’t you all go and take on Steel Bullet TD or ‘Sayna’ one on one again?”
The room was mute and silent. The Lieutenant General let out a soft sigh.
“A major defeat in the first battle! What should we do to boost the morale of our troops? As leaders, instead of thinking about how to defeat the enemy, we’re just causing internal strife, and the honor of UCOE will be ruined in our hands!”
Aurena, the adjutant who stood delicately beside the general, advised, “General, they must be complacent and overjoyed at this point, we should launch a second attack immediately.”
Pei Ge listened to the rarity, “This telling is quite interesting. Keep talking.”
“Seeing our hasty retreat, the Lunar Surface Resistance Army definitely thought that our army could not hastily drop a second wave of combat power, and their vigilance must have slackened. Since there’s only one Steel Bomb ‘Sayna’, even if it’s tough enough to be paired with the Chinese Mobile Fighters, it’ll only be able to defend against a two-pronged attack.”
“Therefore, if we launch a three- or four-pronged pincer attack, we will be able to catch them off guard and tire them out, thus greatly increasing our chances of victory. The above is just my personal opinion.” Orena finished her speech sweetly and methodically.
“I object.” The Chief of Staff, Moses, expressed his opinion forcefully, “This army is now greatly wounded, and it should be a time to recuperate and adjust the strategy of attacking the law. If we start another war, I’m afraid that the sergeants and soldiers will not be convinced.”
The adjutant tilted his dainty head, ”Minister, you have a point in your scruples, ah. However, the use of soldiers is in the strange. Especially at this juncture, if you don’t use dangerous moves, how can you win?”
“Let me put it this way, Miss Adjutant. The army, though small, is sufficiently strong to strike a blow at the enemy’s weak point. At present, it seems that our army is much weakened, and must be sharpened.”
The blonde girl still wanted to argue. Lieutenant General Pei Ge stopped her: “There’s not much point in arguing further. Just do what Major General Massie wants!”
“Yes…” Oleander’s enthusiasm was quenched and she was so bored. Dinki parked the ‘Asura Zeus’ back on the hidden tarmac and headed back to the ‘Intergalactic Confederation’ first
Office on the Moon to visit the Special Envoy’s family, Guan Yunru, and the safety of the officials.
“Report! Mr. Dinky is back!” The Confederate guard informed.
Bilof called, “Invite him in!”
The young Chinese man enters the room and gives the star raised hand salute first, “Everyone is safe, right?” He looks around the room at the members.
Sina Garucci and Yunru were the first to rush out, a pair of dainty girls opening their jade arms to hold their sweethearts close!
“Ki! I’m so worried about you!” The alien girl crowed beautifully.
The Chinese girl followed with a sweet murmur: “That’s right! I’m afraid you’ll get hurt!
It would hurt…”
They look up and down to see if the black-haired youth is injured, bright green eyes intertwined, the two could not help but issue a heartfelt smile.
“Good daughter, Miss Yunru, how can Mr. Ding walk when you’ve got him wrapped up in a tight knot? We have something we want to ask him too.” The envoy joked.
All the people around them laughed under their breath as the two beautiful girls walked towards Bilof with their arms around Dinky.
The girls whose young faces were so shy that they turned bright red immediately retreated to the second side.
“My lord, may I ask what your orders are?” The young man asked cautiously.
“Tell us about the combat power of the steel bullet ‘Sayna’.” The Envoy spoke sternly, “I have personally seen the power of the Asura Zeus; it has not been proven to me – is the name of the Moon’s ‘Guardian’ nothing more than a legend?”
Mr. Banglu called up the battle information obtained from the satellite, and Tingqi gave a brief account of the situation based on the number of messages on the screen.
The crowd was shocked to hear this and exclaimed that they were lucky to have escaped.
“Fortunately, the ‘Sayuna’ and the Steel Bullet TD worked in tandem, otherwise, how could the UCOE’s HK Heavy Armor Division have been eviscerated so quickly?” Yunru sighed.
“People can only be sure of one thing.” Sina held her hand to her cheeks, “In a short while, they will surely make a comeback.”
“‘Saina’…” recited Bilof faintly under his breath.
On the screen, the moment when the steel bullet on the moon’s surface pierced the enemy plane with a spear of light… Phantom’s Ultimate Steel Bullet TD – Beacon of Justice
Chapter 4 – Dramatic Changes! The Night of Artemis─The Earth’s First Battle Dust Chapter (2) Mrs. Fumaran, the chairperson of the ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’, stood beside the clean window of her office, looking out into the deep night with eyes that hid her thoughts.
The comms intercom rang, “Sir Chairman, Steel Bomb Mechanic-Razori Leo is here to see you!
Is he granted access?” The secretary asked.
“Good! Ask him to come in, I’ve just asked Lazori to come here to brief on the earlier situation.” Madame nodded.
The flower-carved automatic door opened, and the green-haired youth bowed and stepped in, courteous and gentle.
Lazori gave the President’s wife the most respectful salute: “Greetings, Your Excellency! I don’t know what your instructions are for ordering me to come to your private office at this hour of the night.”
“Relax! This is not a decision-making chamber, so don’t be so formal! Have a seat!
“Fumaran graciously greeted the young man as he took his seat.
“But…?” He was in a bit of a bind, and the atmosphere was strange─because, Dora was there.
The red-haired girl did not feel anything wrong, generously moved to the high-backed soft chair and sat next to her mother, her pretty brown eyes staring at him, smiling wryly. The youth felt that the situation was not right.
The secretary brought two drinks, “Madam President, is there anything else you need served?”
“It’s fine, thanks. You can go back.”
“I’m off duty.” She exited, leaving her superiors and subordinates staring at her desk.
There was a moment of bilateral silence. The President, who seemed to have a plan in mind, said bluntly, “Thank you very much! Lazzoli. The people of the colony owe you another one!”
“No! Sir. This is not the work of me alone, it is the result of the efforts and sweat of the Resistance and our compatriots. Besides, the enemy will attack again at any time; therefore, I would never dare to take credit for it.” The pilot tactfully brought it up, not wanting to steal the battle.
“Hahaha…” the lady laughed heartily, “How is it that you have no merit? Lt. General Quirrell even wrote to this committee himself – asking us to reward you. Too much modesty would be a shame for those politicians who are knocking on the door!”
The intercom rings again and the President presses the call button.
“Mom! Did you call me for something?”
‘This thousand-dollar lady is also here? …’ The youth was astonished.
Dora, the lady’s beloved daughter, entered at the sound of the opening door, and accompanied her, and mother and daughter preceded to chat affectionately for a few moments.
He glanced aside to see Dora Galuille, still unmoving, waiting to see what would happen.
“Good girl, did you run into the secretary on your way here?”
“No! I just missed her. Do you want to…?”
“Then… forget it.” Madame stopped the conversation.
Fumaran paused, “Also, the Chinese steel bullet TDs have been of great benefit to our military. Razori, have you ever had any encounters with that unknown pilot?”
“Unfortunately, my lord, no. There should be no reason to make further contact before determining the motives of ‘Asura Zeus’ for his solidarity.” The man voiced his concerns.
The President then asked Lazzoli to summarize the whole story of the war and to gain a comprehensive understanding of the current situation. She was silent for a long time in her deep contemplation.
“‘Raya Ye’ Fighters…, UCOE’s 30,000 troops, and the Steel Bullet TD, the situation is really complicated and volatile.” Chairman Fumaran sighed down.
The young man said solemnly, “No matter what changes there may be in the future, I will take the overall situation of the colony into consideration and will never let the people suffer.”
“It’s best that you realize that, and it’s a blessing for the three major cities of the Moon Watch to have you shoulder the heavy responsibility of being a steel-bomb mechanic.” The Lady smiled.
“You’re welcome, President. My subordinates are only doing their part as colonial fighters.”
“Hmm.” Fumaran nodded, “By the way, Dora, didn’t you have something you wanted to say to Lazori?”
“Yes, mom.” The pretty girl crowed, turning to the green-haired young man: “Thank you for saving my life, I was too playful. I’m so sorry…”
The motorized warrior pilot shook his hands together and said, “It’s nothing! It’s just a favor. Just like a beautiful princess in danger, a passing knight wouldn’t do nothing.”
“But, you are also risking your life.” Dora’s sweet cheeks blushed slightly and she twisted her hair shyly, “When I saw with my own eyes your spirit of fighting for all the citizens, your selflessness and selflessness, I realized how great you really are. Compared to you, I feel so ashamed…”
Lazori smiled and bobbed his head, “Ms. Dora, we live in two completely different worlds – you have a perfect appearance, noble friends, a beautiful life, a rich life, envied by everyone, while I am doomed to fight against poverty, to open up my own tomorrow with my own hands, with no shelter at all. Since the steel bomb ‘Saina’ has been placed in my hands by your Honor and the Committee, the only thing I can do is to fight to the death to keep the colony safe and to fight for my freedom. My greatest assets are my life and my love for the Moon – nothing else.”
“I…” the girl’s eyes were clouded with tears, “Razori, I’m not that far away from you. You always treat me as if I’m a little girl who doesn’t know how to get into trouble, but I don’t like to be arrogant. I’m not proud. I’ve had a lot of attention, and I must learn to protect myself. Dora is just an ordinary girl, not what you think she is…” she sobbed.
The young man, not realizing that he would make a beautiful woman cry, immediately responded, “Please don’t cry, Miss Dora. I do not mean to accuse or criticize you in the least, but only to state the facts. Don’t take it personally!”
With a wink, the Chairwoman implied that the pilot should say something more kind to persuade the stunningly beautiful young woman. Lazzoli was at a loss for words. All he could do was to get up, walk over to Dora’s body, and pat the girl’s shaking shoulders with a strong, gentle hand.
“My words came out too heavy, so please curtly pardon me, okay?” The green-haired youth pulled a face, seeking only to calm a storm that he had inadvertently provoked.
The beautiful girl choked on her sobs and whimpered, “You’re right, it’s all my fault… I… don’t… hate you so much…”
Unwilling to say more, Dora threw herself directly into Lazori’s arms and let out a sob. She embraced the man in front of her, removing the mask of coldness she usually wore, arming herself to be her true self. The young man, on the other hand, was flushed, and did not dare to take advantage of the situation – his arms hung down naturally, and he did not even move.
“Hold me! …Razori! Hold me! I want so much to have a righteous, heroic, trustworthy man to lean on…” the girl yelled, dripping into a sea of tears.
Mrs. Formalan announced her ‘retirement’ at this point, and with a peculiar smile, paced out of the office without a word, leaving the predicament to the Moonwatch youth.
Razori, who was the most dominant and invincible man in the battlefield, was caught in the web of love, but he had to admit that he was in a difficult situation: ‘It’s going to be difficult now… I can’t get out of it…’ He couldn’t get out of the situation.
“Why aren’t you responding? Are you wooden?” She cracked a smile, admiring his ‘dumb look’.
The ‘Colonial Flower’ raised her slender arms high, her shooty fingertips trailing mischievously across his cheeks, and the steel-bomb mechanic grew more and more uncomfortable, repeatedly trying to back away.
The young girl threatened him, “Lazori, if you don’t put your arms around me… I’m going to cry for a long time to come! Or perhaps you’d like to explain to the Colonial Court and the jury how you left my mother and lured me here under the guise of the President, and then…” The sweetness of her smile blossomed.
“My Dai… Miss! You can’t make jokes like that. I’m not that kind of person!”
The young man called out in panic.
Dora blinked her eyes, “My hero, just think about it…”! Will the judge believe you? Or will he listen to other people’s testimonies?” Her lips were slightly pouting with an innocent and pitiful look.
“Looks like I’m going to lose…” he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly, calling out to the heavens and the earth.
The girl wanted to cry again: “Or do you… not like me at all? …” Tears dripped from her eyes.
“Miss Dora, in all fairness, it’s not that I don’t like you; it’s that I’m not really a good match for you.”
“That won’t be a problem. For you, I can change my habits ah! I’ll prove it to you.”
“Never. You are what you are–Dora Galuille, with your natural charm, your popularity, and I cannot selfishly ask you to do anything unreasonably depressing–that would be to put chains on you, and do you harm. I have no such power.”
The beautiful girl snorted: “My mother is really knowledgeable, she’s not wrong!” She agrees with her wife’s opinion.
“The colony is in turmoil at the moment of war. The moon watch is not yet set, and I have no heart to think of my children’s love. I’ll consider my own feelings when all the other lovers are married. But that is very far away from me…”
Dora laughed, “Who said love is far away? Isn’t your ‘she’… standing right in front of you now? …”
“Oh? Missy, you mean… you?” He couldn’t believe it. His heart was filled with questions.
The girl crowed affirmatively and wonderfully, “That’s right! It’s me!”
“If you say… I’m sure I won’t be able to reach you.” Razori denied it, “Besides, we always quarrel when we meet, it’s not likely, is it?”
The redhead lightly punched the youth’s broad shoulder, “But we’re not fighting at all today, are we?
“She half protested, half pouted, her eyes streaming with expressive enthusiasm.
Headache time. All sorts of reasons and excuses bounced around in the young man’s head, and he still couldn’t find an answer to the girl’s question.
“It’s no. But there’s no guarantee it won’t happen again in the future, is there?”
She covered her cherry lips and clucked, ”Naturally there won’t be any in the future, I don’t want to argue with you! It’s very tiring. Needless to say, I don’t want to make you angry…. Because I’ve found something in common between you and me, at least one.”
“Eh? What is it?”
“The Moon – we both love this emerald that revolves around the Earth, and that alone is enough to keep you and me together.” The young woman declared happily and playfully.
The steel bullet pilot was sincerely impressed, “Ms. Dora…, you really are different.”
“People grow up eventually. Isn’t that so? Repeatedly seeing my mother exhausted and worried for the growth and progress of the three major cities of the Moon Table, I really can’t bear to see it. I’m still too young to be able to shoulder more of her burden, and now that you’re there to help my mother, people feel a lot more at ease.”
“My lady, my subordinate will do his best to make your hall free of worries.” He stepped back and bowed solemnly to the voluptuous girl.
She chirped charmingly, “Don’t be rude! Razoli. Well… you’re the right hand of my mother and the Autonomy Committee, but what about the others? Let’s be fair.”
Dora repeated the trick, wrapping her arms around the young green-haired man once more. This time, she swore to herself, she would hold on for dear life.
“Well? Ms. Dora, what is it that you need to send me?” There was nothing Lazori, with his handsome red face, could do for her.
She raised her jade head, her crystal watery eyes soaked through his face, “You just said – I’m a princess, you’re a knight who fights for others, right?”
Lazori nodded uncertainly, “Yeah. But it’s also for all of the Moon.
And then what?”
“You’ll do anything for me-as long as it’s not illegal, not against the interests of the colony, and safe. That’s right, isn’t it?” Dora began digging a trap for the man to jump down.
The young man still stared blankly at his head, thinking – why is she beating around the bush and asking him questions he wouldn’t dare say ‘no’ to?
The girl stood on her tiptoes and whispered in a sweet voice: “Are you sure? No regrets?” Her pupils flashed with a glistening light.
“Yes. Ms. Dora…? You…?” The young man was startled to realize that the way she was gazing at him was not quite ‘normal’.
“If…, if,…” the absolutely beautiful girl’s pink face blushed and her tone became bashful, “if I ask you to be my boyfriend…, will you refuse me?”
The young man’s entire body shook strongly: “Miss, you can’t intentionally seek my happiness!
“Desperately wanting to break free from her ‘grip’.
‘You want to run away? It’s not that simple…’ Dora snickered and hugged her even closer, ‘I’m very serious. I’ve never asked such a question to a boy before! You’re the only one…”
“I am a warrior, and at any moment I may lie down on the battlefield and never return! I cannot afford to make you a promise! Nor dare I hope for your favor.” He faltered.
The girl’s delicate wrist hooked onto his neck, “I don’t care who you are. We’ve been together for months, and at first we didn’t seem to fit in, but the way I feel about you is like a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice – it’s a little tart when I first drink it, and after a few more sips, the sweetness comes out of my throat and leaves a lasting aftertaste in my mouth. Now I realize that I have seen so many well-dressed and elegant gentlemen in grand occasions, but none of them is as good as you! In fact, they are all but vanilla, and when the time comes, they only care about their own lives and do not give a damn about other people’s right to live! I’m so disappointed!”
“My lady, I didn’t save you because you’re the daughter of the Chairman…”
“That’s what I appreciate about you! If I were an ordinary, unknown girl, you would have saved my life. That’s why I want to repay you for saving my life…”
The green-haired young man returned, “You don’t have to repay, Ms. Dora. It is my duty to do so, and I do not presume to expect anything in return from each beneficiary. Otherwise, one is not worthy to serve as a steel bullet pilot with ill motives.”
“I… I’m just looking for a reason… can’t I? Besides, how can I be ungrateful?” She was a little coy.
He said with a straight face, “I’m sorry, it’s not good for me to accept your way of forcing yourself to like someone else, you’ll get extremely hurt.” He was looking out for Dora after all.
“I didn’t force myself to love you! My mother wouldn’t have done so either. Is it possible that I disgust you so much? Just for an unpleasant first impression?” The girl jade chanted, on the verge of tears.
Razori soothed, “No, how could I? It’s just that I really can’t afford to pay you. We are not suited for each other, there are too many differences – you in the sky, me on the earth, can’t see the intersection, can’t force it.”
Dora sobbed, “I was just born into a powerful family! I don’t have a choice. Do you think I’m happy about it? The strict upbringing, the etiquette training, the need for elegance in every word and action, all at my mother’s beck and call, according to the rules of the house, there is no freedom at all. I was often alone in the large, high-class maglev, and sometimes when it passed through ordinary residential neighborhoods, I would look at the ordinary but happy people by the side of the road and envy them with all my heart… the freedom to laugh and do whatever they wanted… but I couldn’t do that. Why was I a member of the Galyaye family? Most people would be envious of my life, but in fact, it’s a different story. Being a member of a wealthy family is not necessarily a good thing… It’s not that I don’t know what’s good for me, it’s just that l have to be able to enjoy it myself, even if it’s a great blessing.”
The young man with the moon watch had nothing to say and sighed: “For me, growing up in the ghetto – fancy houses, fancy cars, etc. – they are just dreams, mere dreams to satisfy my hunger. I know how you feel about being a ‘caged bird’. You have the mood and the time to think, to fret about not being able to find a handsome dance partner at countless parties, to agonize over which beautiful tuxedo you’ll wear when it’s your turn. I can only be in the kitchen of a small restaurant, washing dishes and cleaning the store for the owner who saves the cost of machine workers, just so that seven or eight companions can have enough to eat, and then study by myself under the dim light of the late night – it is not for any reason, but just to be able to live – to live to witness the value of their own birth? We all have our own destiny, don’t we? Now that I’m a pilot of the Mobile Suit ‘Sayuna’, I have to make the colony free and democratic.”
Her catkin-like fingertips touched and slid back and forth between the young man’s ears, quite distressed by what had happened to him.
“Razori, it’s… I’m… not… nice… to remind you of your sad past.” The beautiful girl’s pouting lips fell towards his lips. He had no time to stop it.
Dora’s way of apologizing was quite unique – offering her first kiss. For several minutes, she forgot to time it. It was sweet and beautiful.
The girl left the distance between each other in embarrassment, slightly gasping: “Are you still angry with me? Are you proud of me? Lazuli?”
“Ms. Dora, why did you… kiss me?” The young man blushed even more than she did.
“Hee… I can kiss whoever I want. This is someone’s first time, don’t you dare be in a position to be picky.” Dora jokingly pinched the tip of his nose lightly.
Lazori’s face was a mixture of red and green… Oh no, he had completely fallen into the web of love set up by this beautiful girl… even the super-strong steel bullet ‘Sayana’ could not break through the barrier. He realized that he was in a dilemma, when did the world turn into such a thing?
The green-haired young man asked her tentatively, “My lady, I wonder if you were ordered by the Chairman to… behave in the way you did just now?”
“Well, my mother did teach me how to pursue happiness. However, my world of relationships is not something that can be dictated by others, and I am still able to make my own decisions. I have a motto – ‘If I love something, I’ll get it’ – and even if it’s a real boy – especially a steel bullet driver who fascinates me the most – I’m determined to devote all my love to him and keep him as my companion for life and for eternity.” The young girl looked intoxicated.
The girl had come for Lazzoli, who was so frightened by Dora’s ‘declaration of love’ that he wanted to run for his life–a fiercely possessive, clear-cut love/hate–that was beyond his wildest dreams. When he gives up on love and stops fantasizing about long-lasting romance, Eros’s arrows come instead – the ‘Colonial Flower’!
He was happy to accept it; Lazori was not ready, and he had no more thoughts in his mind than to save the three major cities of the Moon from the plague.
“Please forgive me for my rude words. It is true that I can not be compared with you, the disparity of family, the difference in environment, the concepts and ideas are difficult to combine and communicate. I really feel degraded by your favor.” The young man politely declined.
“Life, concepts, ideas can be slowly harmonized to adapt, not a problem at all ah. Think about it, which girl doesn’t like to be surrounded by her sweetheart who is a legendary hero? No one dares to criticize how different we are, but they should be curious about how long it took for us to officially announce our relationship, right?” Dora’s answer left Lazuli speechless.
The charming girl looked at the youth playfully, as if telling him with her delicate eyes──’Just admit it! How much longer do you want to run away?’
“I…” the youth couldn’t find the words to follow, “don’t know what to say…”
“Then listen to the others!” The girl crowed with laughter, “Why don’t we just hold a press conference and make it public! So as not to spread the word around. What do you think? Hmm?”
Razori laughed helplessly, “There’s no need to be so cautious, is there? Missy.”
“As long as you don’t renege on the debt then anything is negotiable.” Dora was already sure of the young man, “Otherwise, who will I get my first kiss back from? If you don’t say something…, you’ll acquiesce.”
It’s Lo. The press conference was a small matter, but a young girl’s first kiss was a big one. He blamed himself for not reacting quickly enough, how could he have predicted that she would pull a ‘general’s car’?
The driver replied, “Miss, I will follow your orders.”
“And, Lazori, you always call people ‘Miss Dora’ or ‘Missy’ or something like that, it sounds strange yeah.”
“Missy, this is the honorific title set by the ‘Autonomy Preparatory Committee’ and cannot be changed arbitrarily.”
The boy replied frankly.
Dora tilted her cheeks up, “Yes? It’s fine for public occasions. But… you’re my boyfriend, so how can you call me that? You’re not a hired servant, and my old housekeeper calls me ‘Dora’! You’d better call me ‘Dora’.”
“Dora…? It’s strange. I’m not used to it.” Razori felt slightly awkward.
She sweetly chanted, “It doesn’t matter, it’ll be easier to get used to it after a few more times. You’ll have to say my name for the rest of your life!”
The green-haired young man is full of confusion, this graceful rich girl makes him confused about his feelings. She suddenly came into his life, and then antagonized and quarreled, and then without warning changed into a legitimate girlfriend. He can’t make sense of it all, and has a subtle sense of being counted on by his ‘in-laws’.
“Are you always so decidedly bold with boys? Dora?” The steel-bomb mechanic admired.
The girl smiled brightly, “That’s true! Scorpio girls are passionate about love and hate. If you embrace me, I will burn myself out, but if you break your oath, you will never be able to return. I offer you my eternal love, and you’re the only one I’ll ever love…”
The young man’s back was chilled to the bone, and he couldn’t afford it: “Can I not participate in this dangerous game?”
He is very careful in love and does not want to make a wrong move. It’s like setting up a formation on a battlefield.
“No way! You’re the one who started it all and made me fall in love with you without realizing it, so you have to be responsible for it!” The young lady stuck to him and refused to let go.
Who’s he messing with? Lazori was tempted to abandon his armor and run. But with the fate of the colony at stake, he couldn’t afford to hesitate. The steel bullet, Sayuna, was steering the Moon’s future, and there was no room for miscalculation.
Never mind, not to disappoint Dora. At least she was innocent – she had the choice to love anyone, the privilege of abandoning them at any time. Above all, she was a ‘lady of the house’ – an object of respect and admiration in society – a reputation that could not be particularly damaged.
What about him? For better or for worse, is he still a tsetse? He aims to fulfill his agreement with the Autonomous Preparatory Committee and fight for the sovereignty of the Moon’s surface. When that is accomplished, he intends to wander the stars, forget the past, and never again inquire into the cruelty of war. Nothing more.
A distant thought of a marriage between Gopal and Dora? Lazori couldn’t even dream of it.
Let her be! It’s good that she’s happy. The young man of the Moon Watch had such thoughts in his mind, and tried to comfort and convince himself as much as he could.
The young girl’s expression was full-on infatuation, and Dora stared out at the young man. He was in a state of sixes and sevens.
Mrs. Fumaran quietly walked back to the office, and when she saw that the two of them were having a hard time parting, she deliberately coughed a few times: “Ahem, ahem… Have you two finished talking?”
The pretty girl did not think it was a big deal, but turned her body around to face the Chairman and said, “Mom, you came back too soon. I was…” a bit shy and complaining.
“Ah, that’s really sorry, I’ll just leave for a while.” Fumaran made a gesture to raise his step and walk away, a smile on his lips.
Lazzoli quickly asked the President for help, “Ma’am, I and your daughter have made our feelings clear, so there is no need for you to recuse yourself.”
The President said, “Oh!” and dropped back, “You’ll have plenty of time together in the future, you don’t care about a few seconds in front of you, do you?” She sat down graciously.
Dora’s charming eyes fluttered, and her autumn waves scurried into his eyes, and the youth could hardly resist.
”This kind of ravishing fortune is better to be respected.” The young man inwardly sighed loudly that he couldn’t eat.
“Lazori,” President Fumaran said kindly, “your marriage to your youngest daughter, Dora, is finalized now. When the Moonwatch Colony gains full autonomy, that will be the date of your integration into the family.”
The youth’s eyes widened, “My lord, do you mean that the ministry and Ms. Dora she… will be married at that time?”
The soft girl interjected: “Right. If you leave the moon on the airplane, where will she find her fiancé? That would make me uneasy. That’s why I swore I’d stay close to you – you’d never get away from me.”
“Dora, do you really have to work so ‘hard’?” Lazori was already in tears.
The young girl said: “You are my happiness – see but slip through the fingers, that is not extremely unwise? People never do regret things, naturally, the first to rule out the potential factors Luo.
Once you love, don’t look back.”
The marriage contract came into effect immediately. The young man had no choice, not even a buffer to consider the interval; the other’s mother was directly under the supreme officer, and it was even worse to be at odds with him. Dora was unwilling to back out, so could he back out of the marriage?
“It’s getting late. Tomorrow happens to be a public holiday, so there is no need to work or attend classes. However, the state of readiness of the three major cities remains on high alert. Razori, you can take a vacation at the base in case of an accident.” The Lady instructed.
The Steel Bullet Pilot nodded, “Understood!” There was no room for comment.
Dora smiled sweetly and said: “It doesn’t matter. I traveled to the base to accompany you not good?
I’ve never officially visited a Resistance Special Forces military base!”
“I have no objection.” Chairman Fumaran agreed, “You go there to see real combat organization and training, so you won’t be ridiculed by some of the so-called ‘disgruntled’ as ‘pampered,’ ‘noble,’ ‘princess,’ or ‘unaware of the hardships of the people. Princess’, or ‘unaware of the plight of the people’.”
Mothers and daughters are in the same boat. The ‘Colonial Flower’ was scheduled to visit the special base at 10:00 a.m. the next day to make a real date with Lazori.
The young man of the moon escorted the President’s family to their residence, where he then returned to his unit to report for duty and to inform the First Lieutenant that Dora Galuye was coming to visit.
“I will grant Ms. Dora’s parlor application and access to the base. However, she will not be allowed to approach the restricted area, which is only accessible with a special pass. Keep that in mind.”
Razori said sternly, “The men will abide by the military discipline and your instructions and will not dare to slacken off.
Please, sir, don’t worry.”
The tired green-haired young man stepped into his bedroom with a sense of relief, freshened up, and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he hit the pillow…
Somewhere on the tarmac of the ‘Artemis’ interstellar spaceport.
Dinky tilted his head and looked at the Steel Bullet TD, ”That technician Grandpa mentioned should be arriving soon, right?
Almost fifteen minutes after the appointed time…’ He repeatedly looked down at the face of his watch.
“Why hasn’t he come yet?” Sina murmured, “Dad said that the technician’s skills and experience are second to none on the Moon, and that even the Guardian-Motorized Warrior ‘Sayuna’ has a permanent maintenance contract with him.”
Yun Ru winked and laughed: “The bigger the name, the more often he is late. That’s what makes him so important. Everyone has to wait for him alone…”
“Is that so?” The alien girl inclined her head and wondered, “Yunru, do you earthlings have such strange habits?”
The Chinese maiden said sweetly, “It’s all about human weakness. The Earthlings have too many shortcomings, so there is still a lot of room for improvement. Sina, you don’t think you Buffoonians are the most outstanding race in the universe, do you?”
“If you hadn’t mentioned it… I wouldn’t have thought that my home planet compatriots were the most superior,” said Sina Garuchi, holding her cheeks in her hands, “If you think about it, the cultural and technological standards of Bafina are really much more advanced than those of other planets in the same star system. Especially the people, they add to the honor of the Garucci family…”
Guan Yunru returned, “You are so cheeky! My Missy…” with a sinister smile.
“Each other, each other! You’re no better!” Sina’s pink face glowed with joy.
The two gorgeous young girls play and get along well.
“Yunru, look at the time, it’s so slow…” the blue-haired girl pouted her fragrant lips, “I hate maliciously being late!”
The Chinese beauty is not very happy: “That’s right! It’s really bad! It makes us look like fools. We don’t know what we’re waiting for.”
Horns blare to the beat, code word. A large cargo maglev pulls up in front of the mooring warehouse, and the steel bullet mechanic appears to be arriving for his appointment.
The door opens and the freight vehicle drives in silently. The warehouse door closed quietly. The second side of the door opens and three men in maintenance attire step down. A year older, two younger seem to have just left the school.
The pale-haired middle-aged man in the center spoke out: “Hey! Young man. You must be Dr. Ding Shao Yang’s grandson, Mr. Ding Qi? I apologize for the delay in preparing the equipment.”
The young man stepped forward and shook hands with the middle-aged technician, saying, “I am the one! Are you Mr. Cui Wei, the genius technician that my grandfather highly recommended and praised so much?”
“That’s right! A unique genius!” Trevor was overjoyed, “The Doctor described it so aptly! It’s hard to find a soulmate like him! These two beside me are my senior students, and their skills are excellent, too!”
Yunru, Sina, they threw glances at each other, and covered their lips and cackled more than a few times!
“Are these two super beautiful girls…?” The technician couldn’t help but ask.
The Chinese youths hurriedly introduced each other. The five exchanged greetings.
“Wow! You’re really something, being loved by two incredibly beautiful girls at the same time… at one time. Uh, would that be hard to get along with?” Choi Wei tsked ‘in wonder’ and envy.
The blue-haired woman said, “We’ve made it clear enough – he’s half and half. He shouldn’t be fighting.”
“Yes, it’s important to keep an eye on him!” Ruiru agreed, “I won’t allow it – he still wants to mess with other girls besides the two of us!”
The middle-aged man patted Dinky’s broad shoulders, “Take care of yourself! If you are so strict now, you can only imagine what will happen in the future…” He was quite ‘sympathetic’.
The boy chimes in with a rueful smile, sweet and bitter.
The young man asked three distant technicians to overhaul the ‘Asura Zeus’ after the battle. They took out the elevator and tester from the car and scanned the interior and exterior of the steel bomb from all angles around it.
“I haven’t seen this kind of armor shell before. Elder brother Ding, this is a new type of alloy metal, isn’t it?”
The technician asked the young Chinese man beside him who was ready to inquire.
Dinky paused his head, “Yes, developed by my late father and my grandfather. It is only used on this rack of steel bullets.”
“Well… no wonder! After the long battle with the UCOE army, the shell armor couldn’t even detect any wear and tear…. It’s a miracle! Hey, Jai! Jie! What’s the progress of your inspection?” Choi shouted.
The mechanic named Jie called out, “Master! The right arm of the Steel Bullet TD needs to be adjusted! In addition, if the angle of the dorsal wing opening can be adjusted inward by three points, it will be more helpful to the speed of flight.”
“Good! I’ll leave it to you!” He turned his head again and shouted, “Heng! What about you?”
“I’ve found ammunition here that needs to be resupplied, and the logistical equipment we’ve brought with us can supply it!”
Heng returns the favor.
The middle-aged man nodded, “Then please do! You two are truly my right-hand men!”
The duo split up and worked their asses off.
The Pretty Pretty Girls only had the part of watching the hilarity from the sidelines. Of course, not moving an inch from Dinky.
The young Chinese man thanked, “You are worthy of your reputation as a marvelous mechanic; simply three hands can do well what a group of seven or eight can do.”
“Hahaha…” Choi Wei laughed aloud, “Otherwise, why did Dr. Ding ask me to make sure I helped you out? Because he thinks highly of me!”
Two and a half hours passed and the maintenance operation was finalized.
The middle-aged technician looked at the proud steel bullet with satisfaction, “You must use this ‘Asura Zeus’ to save the world! It won’t be long before the Earth is at war…”
“What do you mean by that? Do you mean…?” Dinki frowned.
A thin layer of frost covered Cui Wei’s face, “Someone came back from Earth and passed in a piece of news─’a dramatic change is about to happen in East Asia’, and the words are so strong that they’re not empty.”
He talked about the matter in general. Immediately the young Chinese man, the two dainty girls, were in a heavy mood.
East Asia means Japan.
By which it is originated.
