Phantom Ultimate Steel Bullet TD – Beacon Justice
Chapter 5 – Bad Fight! The Wrath of the God of War-Mas-Chapter 1: A Day to Remember in the Moon Colony. A crucial battle to turn the tide.
July 21, 2188 A.D. (50th year of the colonial era).
Nine a.m. moon time. As usual, but tight.
After nearly 50 hours of reorganization, the UCOE troops in lunar orbit are ready to launch the largest general attack. Success is not an option! Failure to do so will result in severe punishment from the Commander-in-Chief to the lowest ranked officer, who will be demoted and penalized.
Lieutenant General Pei Ge received a secret satellite transmission from the headquarters ‘Military Commission’, the words were very strong, almost in an absolute tone of command. We must not delay any further. In case the rest of the colonies follow suit, the situation will be difficult to control.
He shook his head tersely, his expression extremely mute, and did not say a word for a long time.
Adjutant Oleana accompanied her, looking equally grave.
“Marshal, Minister Moses requests an audience.”
“Invite him inside.” He responded briefly, in a foul mood.
The casement door opened and closed. The Chief of Staff stepped in carefully, stood upright two meters from Pei Ge, and saluted.
“Moses, you have read this copy of the message, have you not?” Chief of Staff Moses stood bowed and respectful before the commander. The failure of the battle had shortened his position a great deal since.
The minister said humbly, “Yes, General, I have read it carefully. It seems… that the headquarters is not very happy with the current state of our army.”
“I don’t need you to tell me, I know!” The Lieutenant General’s expression was cold, “I, ‘General Devil’
of the resounding name never want to be ruined in this battle! Do you understand?”
Moses nodded, his back arching lower, “The ministry knows its mistakes! We were too gullible and reckless, and only then did we taste the bitter fruits of defeat. I promise I won’t do it again!”
“This army is not only light on the enemy, but also unaware of the enemy! Both faults are the greatest taboo of the military! How can we not lose?” The Lieutenant General’s fire erupted, but no one could afford to mess with him.
“Yes! Commander, you’re right…” The minister was completely ‘lectured’ and ‘scolded’.
The realization comes.
The marshal rested his arms on his elbows and his chin on the flat of his hands, “No amount of cursing will help. My personal reputation is a small matter; the prestige of the UCOE as a whole will be greatly reduced as a result, which is the hidden worry that should be prevented! Moses, as the planner and catalyst of this military operation, do you have such a sense of crisis?”
Moses nodded and said: “I am always proud to be a member of the UCOE, and I certainly do not want to see this happen. The total attack that will be launched today will allow the three major cities on the Moon to deeply experience the pain and fear of rebelling against the ‘Synergy’!”
“Verbalizing something pretty, I’m afraid it’s not bragging?” The adjutant could not help but speak out sarcastically in a petulant voice. It stemmed from the knot in his heart caused by his opposition to Orena’s suggestion last time.
“My great Ms. Adjutant, of course not!” The Minister replied back ‘elegantly’, “The four new ‘Raya Leaf’ planes will be delivered in another hour and a half, and I intend to use them against the ‘Saina’ , it’s called ‘team against team’.”
“And our army will send twelve thousand troops to the outskirts of the three cities by direct airdrop, split into three directions, and attack the dragon directly! Kill the colonies before they can respond!” Moses’ eyes glowed, it seemed like a good plan.
“What about… ‘Asura Zeus’?” The general asked.
“Hmph! Whichever city it wants to rescue, the remaining two will be tantamount to giving up! Our R-type HKs will pester the Steel Bullet TDs and take down the teams to resist the top teams.” The minister looked smug and confident.
Oleander snickered, “Using Sun Bin’s ‘Art of War’ from ancient China? Don’t make a fool of yourself…” she poured cold water on Moses.
The minister glared back at her viciously! The Adjutant looked away and inclined his beautiful head. Moses gritted his teeth in anger.
“You’ve always taken a bit of brains! There’s still a chief of staff in you! Since the strategy has been finalized, let’s spread your hands and go for it!” Pei Ge also looked away.
Moses led the way, exited decisively, and headed for his office.
“Sir, are you comfortable with him doing this?” The adjutant asked worriedly.
“What else is there to do? Besides, his plan is still viable and not a crappy one, so let’s just see what he does.”
Orena slightly nodded her petite skull, “Fair enough.” Although her heart was not quite convinced, she had to hold back from having an attack.
The UCOE attack fleet was deployed and moved to three groups, as assigned by the Chief of Staff, to await further orders.
“One-thirty minutes past one in the afternoon will be the starting time for the launching of the attack by this army. All ships of all types involved in this operation are scheduled to arrive at the line of attack by 1:20 and be ready to depart by 12:00 noon!” Moses sent out the maneuver orders to the captains of the ships in their sailing guides.
He looked at the three dots of light on the radar screen and mumbled, “The three major cities of the Moon, the steel bullet Sayana, and the motorized warrior Asura Zeus, this time I want to make sure that you will not be able to live and will not be able to die! Hahahahaha…” Howling madly…
In the heart of Artemis City, on the third basement level of the ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’, the war briefing center. There was a tense, eerie calm.
The seven-member decision-making team sat around the round table, staring at the virtual stereoscopic image in the center – the current readiness of the UCOE army high in the sky. Everyone’s expression was one of indescribable panic.
Chairman Fumaran was the first to speak out: “There is no mistake! The enemy’s intentions are very clear – they want to carry out a full-scale attack on the colonies! The number of ships used, and the organization of the attacking echelons, all speak of a grand scale!”
Chairman Lou Baia stood up, “Ladies and gentlemen of the committee, please watch. Looking at the enemy’s formations, we can roughly distinguish between three major groups. According to the capacity of the UCOE’s many ships and the energy of their crews, the computer has assessed that there are more than 10,000 people to be mobilized.
Quite impressive!”
The six members of the committee were divided in their opinions.
“Gentlemen! I still have something to say!” The Chairman of the Committee cleared his throat and waited for the noise to stop, “The reason why the enemy is divided into three divisions is because they want to attack the three major colonies on the Moon at the same time, so that we will not be able to defend ourselves.”
A Bank member from ‘Athena’ jumped up and shouted, “Chairman, there’s only one Steel Bomb on the Moon! No matter how strong it is, it can only guard one city!”
The Chairman breathed out, “That is what troubles us – the Sayana cannot handle the overload of defense. This chairman has summoned you all here to discuss a solution.”
“Fortunately! China’s Steel Bullet TD is our ally, and it will contribute greatly to the stability of the situation. If we include it in our arsenal, we are still short of a sufficiently powerful weapon…” the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners said in his estimation.
Luna’s Dominia raised her hand and crowed, “Chairman, Chairman! I have a suggestion, it may be a little bold, but it must be done.”
“Ms. Dominia, go ahead!” The President was desperate to listen to the solution as much as possible.
“Send our steel bombs out into the universe to face off against the forces of the UCOE head on!”
Her radical comments sparked a wave of consternation among the members on the floor.
“Instead of letting them spread out their forces and break us individually; it would be better to take advantage of the fact that they are still gathering preparations to use the violent destructive nature of the motorized warriors to first cause the enemy’s formation to be greatly disrupted and their vitality to be greatly injured, or even to withdraw their troops! This is the ‘besieging the Wei to save Zhao’ strategy mentioned in the Thirty-Six Stratagems of China!”
Mrs. Fumaran propped her head on the table with her arm and replied in a hazy voice, “In case the steel bullets do not have a wide enough striking area to effectively suppress and disrupt the enemy’s army and strength…, won’t we give them an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and instead, open the door for them to take advantage of the situation?”
“Mr. Chairman, of course I have considered this point. Please don’t forget, Your Excellency – the Steel Bullet TD is currently on the Moon, so we must ask it to cooperate with our army, Sayana, in order to have a good chance of winning! Otherwise, we are digging our own grave, no matter what we do…” Dominia was very confident, “To be on the safe side, our support troops can trek to outer space in two and a half hours to assist the two mobile fighters in clearing the battlefield.”
The Lady smiled, “The insights of the younger generation can be amazing at times! Dominia, I can accept your advice. I wonder if any of the other five members would like to make any more brilliant comments?”
“Adopting the ‘surprise attack’ tactic… also requires some luck…. If two mobile fighters strike at the same time, it would be difficult to predict the destructive power…” The Chairman murmured, “Yes, I second the motion!”
Lou Baiai support, the whole group since the will of unity.
A dangerous move. It all depends on the success or failure of the maneuverers themselves.
“Next question – how do we find the ‘Asura Zeus’ and its pilots?” Fumaran said worriedly.
Military Councilor Orla spoke up, “My lord, you don’t have to worry. Our military’s intelligence team has found the Mobile Suit Pilot’s hideout.”
“Great! Where is he?”
“Our men followed him from one of the city’s tarmacs to the Star Confederacy’s office building on the Moon, and saw the pilot walk in. The identification is unmistakable!”
The President was pleased: “Well, I will personally invite him to assist the colonists. I hope the Confederacy will remain neutral.”
“As for the transports that can carry the two steel bombs to the enemy, we have the ready-to-use ship ‘Cyclops’. It can be ready in forty minutes!” The military commissioner presented them together.
“Please get on with it right away!” Fumaran’s battle intent skyrocketed.
“Yes!” Orla got up and excused herself, leaving in good spirits.
“Mr. Chairman, I would also like to ask you to pass on a directive from the ‘Autonomy Preparatory Committee’ to Lazori Leo – the steel bomb ‘Saina’ will be loaded into a carrier ship and lifted into the air to meet the enemy!” The Chairman said with a straight face.
Lou Baiden headed, “I know, get on it right away.” He activated a special communication channel to contact the green-haired young man.
Fumaran turned around in his high-backed chair and faced the big computer screen and said, “Please connect me to Mr. Bonroux, the head of the Confederate office in the Moon. Use the secure line.”
“As you wish, Madam President…” answered the female voice of the host.
The communication is connected and the screen switches from dark blue to a movie screen, which is answered by Pamela, the secretary of the Confederate office.
“Hello, this is the ‘Star Confederacy’ office, is there anything I can do for you?”
“Hello, ma’am. I am Mr. Fumaran, Chairman of the ‘Autonomy Preparatory Committee’. Is Mr. Bonlou, the head of your office, in his seat?”
“You’re the President’s wife? Disrespectful! Out of respect! Mr. Bonroux he is on duty, I’ll put you through.” The secretary first dialed the intercom to inform the military attaché, “Please wait.”
The scene switches again, with Bangru’s office in the background. An imposing looking alien man is now shown, with a coiled, pointed horn on his forehead and a pointed, flat cochlea.
“I am the Confederate representative, Mr. Bunru, and you are the Chairman of the ‘Preparatory Committee’?” There were few colonial dignitaries who knew the number of the office’s highly confidential private line.
“Yes! The current battle between the three major cities of the Moonwatch and the UCOE has been going on for quite some time now, and our side is in dire need of a break in the stalemate and an opportunity. Therefore, I would like to ask you about someone.”
Banglu laughed, “You think we’re a credit bureau, don’t you? I’m sorry, but unless you’re a very important person, I’m afraid we’re not going to be able to help you.”
“Of course, it must be someone you know. Since the survival of the entire moon is at stake, it would never somehow make this call to harass you!” The President spoke at length.
The military official nodded, “Your Excellency is right, if there is anything the Confederacy can do to help, please do not hesitate to ask.”
“Good! Representative, you are a fastidious person! Then I’ll make it clear! I’ve heard that a young man is currently living in your office, a steel shot pilot?”
“Well…” Bangru was in a dilemma – should he answer ‘there is such a person’?
Sitting on the other side of the room, Confederate envoy Bilov Garucci stood up with a flourish and walked over to the military attaché: “Let me handle this!” The volume was extremely thin.
Bangru gives way. The envoy sits down and enters the shadowed range, his expression still and solemn.
Phumaran recognized him immediately: “Who are you…? You’re the Special Envoy, Mr. Bilov? Shouldn’t you be on Earth? Why are you…?” The entire committee room was in an uproar.
“Dear Madam President of the Preparatory Committee, the reason I am here is a long story. However, in a nutshell, it has to do with the upcoming turmoil on Earth and in our solar system. I’ve been thinking about one thing – should the Confederacy intervene in the UCOE’s conquest of the lunar colonies? Would it be a matter of internal affairs?”
The lady was speechless for a moment, then responded, “Please do not ask the Confederacy to intervene in the dispute between us and Earth, as it may aggravate the situation. Because the UCOE can use the moon surface colonies to fight against their own family through ‘foreign forces’, it will provoke more people of the Earth to be angry, and it will be difficult to control it – and there will never be any peace.”
“You are right, President. I will wait and see for a while longer, and if the situation remains uncontrollable, I will certainly not sit idly by! Hmmm~, listening to your tone just now, ma’am, you seem to be insinuating that I’m harboring some kind of felon, is that ~right~?” The envoy spoke calmly.
“Lord Envoy, I don’t mean that! I just want to borrow a general from you. A general strong enough to destroy the world – a Steel Bullet Pilot.” Fumaran emphasized.
Without admitting it or denying it, Bilov said, “The Confederacy does not yet have the rank and file of mobile fighters, but I wonder to whom you refer, madam?”
“Earth China’s Steel Bullet TD pilot-Mr. Dinky. Do you know where he is at the moment? Fellow members of the Resistance have seen him appear in front of your office.”
The envoy smiled faintly: “Since your army is aware of this, I can’t pretend to be unaware of it. Mr. Ding is indeed a guest at our place, and is naturally protected by the laws of the Confederacy. Chairman, could you please explain the purpose of your search for him?”
“Then I will get right to the point!” The Lady spoke frankly and bluntly, “We need the Steel Bullet TD to repel the incoming UCOE forces.”
“Oh? Your colony already has the superweapon maneuvering warrior ‘Saina’, why do you need to enlist ‘Asura Zeus’?”
The highest instructor of the Preparatory Committee said solemnly, “Mr. Special Envoy, I’m sure you’ve noticed the state of the allied forces on Earth. Obviously, the massive buildup is a sign of a general attack. The enemy’s strategy is clear – to dismantle the defense systems of the three major cities at once. If we are to stop this plot, we must first counter-attack their camps.”
“Madam President, this is quite a risky approach. Are you sure you don’t want to apply to the ‘Star Confederation’ for diplomatic mediation and coordination? Or maybe it would spare us a war disaster.” Bilof suggested.
Fumaran smiled bitterly, “My lord, if the many disputes between the Moon and Earth could be resolved peacefully at the negotiating table, the UCOE would have no need to attack us. The enemy is a warmonger, forcing the war-weary lunar colonies into confrontation.”
The envoy shook his skull and sighed, “You humans have a long history of wars for a variety of reasons, most of which are attributed to lowly desires such as greed, power, and bloodlust. Instead of cleansing their minds from the filth of killing, the people of Earth have pursued more advanced technology to kill and maim their innocent fellow man!
I really don’t understand what you think…”
“Alas, I am not sure…” the President murmured sadly, “All I want to do now is to lead the colonized people to win this vicious battle so that they can live on. For the rest, if there is a tomorrow on the Moon, I will think carefully about your question.”
Bilov closed his eyes, opened them again, and made a decision, “Good! I’ll ask Mr. Dinky to meet with you immediately.”
The young Chinese man was summoned by his secretary to the military attaché’s office. The Confederate envoy sat him down and explained the situation in a low voice. The young man’s face was reflected on the large screen of the organizing committee.
“Are you the pilot of the legendary Steel Bullet TD?” Fumaran thought to himself─this young man is so handsome and radiant, he’s one of a kind.
“Yes, I was maneuvering a motorized fighter.” Dinky listened to Bilof’s description and had a good idea.
The President nodded, “I would like to invite support for us. Not just to seek victory over the UCOE; but to save tens of millions of humans from destruction!”
“Madam, you flatter me. What can a mere mortal like Ding Qi do to bear Your Excellency’s burden?”
The Moon Guide smiled faintly: “As far as I know, there are very few battle robots that can compete with the steel bullet ‘Sayana’. The ‘Asura Zeus’ that you control poses a great threat to us…”
The dark-haired young man understood the mixed feelings in her words and did not argue, “You may be overly concerned, ma’am. I have no quarrel with your colony, let alone a dispute. Please try to be at ease.”
“I hope so.” Fumaran gave a peculiar smile, “Mr. Ting, if you were to be asked to fight alongside the Saina pilot, Razori Leo, would you object?”
The youth raised his eyebrows lightly, “Madam, what exactly are your intentions…?”
“I plan to launch you and the two steel bombs into the UCOE fleet’s holding area, and together we’ll crush those warlords high in the sky!”
Dinky pondered, “Is it possible to send just two mobile fighters to declare war on them in the Gravityless Aegis? It’s very risky…”
“Of course I understand your concern. The UCOE has the absolute advantage in terms of military strength, and our most renowned weapon of all, the steel bullet ‘Saina’, is the only one we have left, so our army can only look up to it. We can’t rely on a single maneuvering soldier, not to mention the danger of going deep into the enemy’s heartland. So if you can help us, the Moonwatch’s chances of victory will increase dramatically to 57 to 63 percent.” She looked down as she read the computer’s calculations, “Besides, with the Resistance coming to help in two and a half hours, you won’t be alone for long.”
The young Chinese closed his eyes and meditated. After half a minute, he opened his eyes, “Yes, Madam President, I agree to participate. Let’s fight for the ‘freedom’ of the Moon Colony!”
The lady was greatly satisfied and smiled frequently, inwardly quite appreciative of Ding Qi.
Fumaran told the young man the outline of the subterranean attack, “So, please go to the W3 hangar at the Resistance Light Cavalry’s third base and have the Steel Bullet TD mounted on the Cyclops.
It will carry you and ‘Asura Zeus’ to your destination. The rest is up to you and Lazori.”
“You can rest easy, Lord President. I know what to do once I’m on the battlefield.” The Chinese steel-bomb pilot looked determined, with a worst-case scenario of fighting to the death.
The President sighed in relief, “In that case, please hurry to the designated place and wait. The longer we wait, the harder it will be to predict the consequences.”
The young man stood up, “Ma’am, I will leave as soon as I am ready!” As soon as he finished, he saluted with a raised hand.
The chairman of the organizing committee cut the message. The screen in front of Dinky returned to darkness, but the blood surging in his chest was once again boiling – a passion that would shake the heavens and earth and make the stars fall!
“Archie,” the envoy addressed the youth in a much closer manner, “I’m not in a position to stop you from doing what you think you have to do. On the part of Sina and Yunru, I will intercede on your behalf.
You go into battle with all your heart!”
The young Chinese man knew that if the two beautiful girls found out that he was going to face off against a large number of UCOE regulars, they would be saddened and scared, and would not be able to persuade him to stay without tears in their eyes! However, his mission was to utilize his power as a mobile warrior to bring about the true justice that he believed in – there was no shying away from it!
“Thank you! But I… it’s better to go and tell them…” Dinky didn’t want to leave any regrets. Since they were his loved ones, they had the right to know his decision.
The young man said goodbye to the envoy. The automatic doors parted to the left and right, only to see Sina Garucci and Guan Yunru crying with red, tearful eyes – needless to say, they had heard it all.
Abby, the little cyborg, was fretting, unable to help at all.
The young man moved forward and hugged the two beautiful girls compassionately, “Don’t cry…, Sina, Yunru…”. If you are so sad, how can I concentrate on the enemy later?” He leaned down and kissed away the tears of the girls one by one. It was extremely tender and loving.
“Brother Ding, can you not go?” The Chinese girl sobbed, “I haven’t even touched you on the lips… I don’t want to see you go into the dragon’s den alone… without being able to help you. I really… I really don’t want to suffer the pain and misery of losing you…”
The alien girl crowed wonderfully, “Yunru is right! If you leave and never return to our side, people and Yunru will not hesitate to choose the ‘martyrdom’ path! Yunru, that’s what they say on Earth, isn’t it?”
The brunette said, “Yes! It’s called ‘martyrdom’. Your Earth language is improving rapidly, Sina! So, Mr. Ting, if you don’t want to see this happen – then promise me and Xena – to come back alive. I hope it’s not a wish or a dream.”
His eyes were slightly damp, “I’ll try to do it. As much as I can.” He felt that he owed them a great deal – especially the sincere and unrepentant love of the two beautiful girls.
Sina squeezed out a hard smile, and forced herself together, “Even though it’s very unsettling, we can’t be so selfish as to not let you out of the house. Forget it. To be your girlfriend, you have to be stronger than others; otherwise, how can you be worthy of you? Okay! I won’t cry, okay?” Even though she said that, the water droplets were still not listening to her, and slowly flowed out from her beautiful sockets.
Chinese girls can’t shut off their tear ducts and pretend not to shed tears, but unfortunately it can’t be helped. She looks so pathetic and weak, especially cute. Dinky had to raise the white flag.
“And yet! Don’t cry ugly on your pretty and charming faces!” At his wit’s end, he smiled dryly and faintly, and gently wiped dry the two young girls’ crystal clear rolling pearls.
They finally laughed: “After saying half a day, it’s all because of you! You’re so ungrateful!”
The girls flocked into his arms together, fondly.
It took Dinky a lot of words to stabilize the beautiful girls, “Well, I can’t leave without going! Wish me luck…”
“So what’s the problem?” The two girls planted kisses on one side, “You promised us that you would do it…”
The youth smiled, kissed their delicate foreheads back, and walked towards the exit alone. His silhouette was long, and even though he was alone, he still had the heartfelt blessings and expectations of his beloved girls.
Bilof and Bangru stood in the doorway of the office, silent and without uttering a word.
“Papa, Uncle Bonlue?” The alien girl glanced back at the two with a glance of her jade eyes. Yunru spun her torso at the same time.
The envoy said quietly: “Good daughter, Yunru, I thought you would refuse to let Archie go, but fortunately my worries were redundant.” The military officials nodded their heads in agreement.
Sina smiled sweetly: “You have to give up even if you don’t want to! After all, now he belongs to the whole solar system, not just to me and Yun Ru!”
The Chinese girl just paused her beautiful skull and silently watched Dinky’s form disappear into the distance…” Yes! Yes, Chairman! I will hold out until reinforcements arrive! My men will now move to the third base, sector W3, in their steel bombs!” Pilot Razori Leo was given an urgent mission by the ‘Preparatory Committee’.
He waited for the communication to finish and began to gear up. Once ready, he was about to leave when the shadow phone rang again.
“Hello? This is Razori, what can I do for you? …” the green-haired youth asked as he pressed the call button and opened his mouth.
“It’s me, Dora.” The red-haired girl’s gorgeous face appeared in the small window, “I heard from mom that you are going to take the initiative to fight against the Allied Forces of Earth, and I am very worried about your safety. Originally, mom forbade me to disturb you, but I really couldn’t wait any longer, so I secretly made this call…”
The young man reassured her, “I have survived wars of all sizes. I’m sure I can’t be defeated by this little thing.” In fact, he also felt a little uneasy.
The girl shook her head: “It’s not that I don’t trust your ability! It’s just that after getting to know you better, I’m afraid that you’ll go out of your way to fight the enemy, and then I…. What should I say? If… if something were to go wrong with you, I’d be very upset…” She didn’t dare to say it explicitly – she was saying, “I’d be very upset if I were to do something stupid”.
“I’ll take care of that.” Lazori calmly soothed the girl’s annoyance, “I will never let a single UCOE battle cyborg invade a single inch of the colony again!”
Dora huffed softly, her jade eyes drenched in waves of tears, “You must be careful… and it’s not like I can be by your side to keep you company. I just want to say one thing to you…, Razori.”
“Eh, go ahead. I am listening attentively.” The youth smiled, “But, Dora, don’t shed any tears yet. The victory is still undecided.”
The girl gently wiped away the broken teardrops, “Hehe, I love to cry too! What I want to say is, ‘Razori, I love you’ and I will never change my mind…”
The young man murmured wistfully, “Dora… you’re such a silly girl…”
“You just realized that now? It’s too late!” The sweet girl blinked her pupils, “A silly girl can keep her happiness for life; a smart girl is often the opposite of happiness!”
Lazzoli laughed: “In the past, we used to be on an equal footing with you, and no one was convinced by anyone; but now that we’re having a serious discussion, I realize that I’m not as eloquent as I am capable of being!”
“Hee hee…” she snorted, “You’ve finally conceded, haven’t you? Great hero?
“The devotion is overwhelming.
“Great Miss, I am willing to bow down!” He put his palms together and bent over in a gesture of submission.
“Good then! The loser will be punished.” She set her face in a face that looked like she wanted to eat someone.
The young man gazed at the shadowy image of the beautiful woman in confusion, “You want to punish me?”
Dora immediately resumed her mischievous flower posture, her young tongue slightly spitting: “It’s totally simple! Just give me a kiss! …”
“Huh?” Razori was even more confused, “How is this possible? You weren’t there…”
The girl’s hands lightly forked waist, a little blame him for not understanding the fun: “Oh, still need to be taught ah? You can kiss my image! It’s just a gesture of goodwill!”
“Oh! I see!” The youth comprehended, “Where can I kiss you?”
She pointed to her lips, “How can I let you off easy? Here, of course!”
“Naughty little girl!” Lazori smiled lightly, “I am at the Princess’s behest.”
The girl smiled with satisfaction: “Since I’m a princess, you have to do what I say. You can kiss her on the mouth is something that many people would love to do.” She puts on a pretty face again, really ‘bullying’ him.
“Then… Dora, forgive me.” The young man slowly pressed his face closer to the picture.
Dora puts away her playfulness, closes her charming eyes, slightly curves her rose lips, and accurately kisses her target. The couple communicated their feelings across the screen, and time seemed to freeze. What is in front of us is eternal. The young girl’s love will be injected in this moment, long ago.
After much care, the girl finally went offline willingly. After savoring her affection, Razori rushed out of the dormitory with a smile on his face and ran to the tarmac where the ‘Sayana’ was located.
The Steel Bullet Pilot boarded the empty bridge, which extended automatically, sending him to face the Mobile Fighter’s nacelle.
The young man looked up at the steel bullet and thought to himself: ‘”Sayana”, we have been fighting for the colony together for more than a year, and have never stopped. The “Preparatory Committee” had already formulated a strategy, so even if it was dangerous, we could only rely on ourselves to make a breakthrough. Is what I’m doing pushing humanity to heaven or kicking it to hell?
Without much thought, he stepped into the driver’s seat, put on his combat helmet, and activated the power. The computer revealed the status of the various types of systems, and everything was functioning steadily.
The young man opened the line with the control center, “The pilot of the ‘Sayna’, Lazori Leo, military registration number – MG1668, now reports – steel bomb function normal, system normal, ready to go, requesting permission from the center to go out!”
“Copy that! This center has received orders from the higher-ups that the mobile fighters can leave the base!”
The circular roof above retracts and is drenched with intense golden daylight.
“Know! ‘Sayna’ waist-wing spread released! Engine power full on!” He pulled the lever, “Steel bomb takeoff!”
The ‘Sayna’ rose straight up into the blue sky, turned around and flew towards the third base. The third base of the Resistance Light Cavalry. Mrs. Fumaran and the Commissar personally came to supervise.
In the center of the war situation, a line of high-ranking officers sat around a square conference table.
“Reporting to the Lord President! The motorized warrior TD has flown in! Please give further instructions.” A female Supervisory Navigation Officer shouted.
The Chairman nodded his head, “Inform the tower to direct it to hangar W3 with a navigation beam!”
“Yes, sir! Tower please reply…” The female navigator carried out the order.
The Lady rose, “Guys, let’s go see the legendary new state of the art Ultimate Steel Bomb TD for ourselves!”
The Base Commander led the political and military officials to the ramp in a shuttle vehicle. The ‘Asura Zeus’ was already stabilized and the tractor tube had just been sent down to the pilot.
Dinky takes off his helmet and holds it in his left hand. Look east and west to get a feel for your surroundings.
Several Resistance mechanical tech sergeants came to pay their respects, “You are the pilot of the Steel Bomb? Welcome to the base. The ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’ and a number of officers are here to greet you.” Old Staff Sergeant Jacksons, one of the highest in rank, spoke first.
“You are very kind! I have been invited by your army to come here, so please write to me if I have caused any inconvenience.
“The Chinese youth answered appropriately.
The staff sergeant’s wrist communicator blared, “Report, the superior instructor is on his way!”
He hastened to organize the personnel in the ramp and line up to greet the arrival of the senior figure.
The convoy entered and the dignitaries got out one by one. The old sergeant gave the command, “Salute!”
The lady replied on her behalf: “Jack Sheng, we are old acquaintances, why are we still talking about this?”
“Rite ~Bye~!” The hoarse voice echoed around the large shed.
The Staff Sergeant had been employed by the Garrett family as a full-time technician and had a close and personal relationship with the Lady.
“Sir Chairman, courtesy to your officers must not be compromised!” The old sergeant showed his teeth and smiled, “That motorized fighter pilot is standing right there.” He pointed to Dinky.
The dark-haired young man took a step forward and straightened his legs, also giving a military salute: “Hello, ma’am!”
Raise your hands and feet no less than a professional soldier. The spirit soars.
The President secretly applauded his handsomeness, and the rest of the officers and generals pointed out.
“Yes!” Fumaran said happily, “You are a guest! On behalf of the tens of millions of people in the colony, I would like to thank you for what you have done for us! If the war ends successfully, the Council will grant you anything you want – anything at all.”
“Ma’am, can we talk about this later?” The youth responded politely, “My concern is what are the main points of this operation? What are the guidelines?”
Fumaran smiled, “Of course. Commissar, please tell Mr. Ding about the strategies he should master in battle.”
Loubia approached, “Yes, ma’am. I have informed Razori of these words, Mr. Ding, and you must understand them as well. The main focus of this battle is to reduce the opponent’s forces and demoralize the enemy. Therefore, you should prioritize destroying the Earth Coalition’s troop carriers and R-type HK robots, followed by their battleships and main ships; as for the command ship ‘Pann’, they will do their best to protect it, so I’m afraid you won’t be able to reach it.”
“Mr. Chairman, I am aware of the situation. It seems unlikely that the Steel Bullet TD and ‘Sayuna’ alone will be able to break through the layers of defenses and go straight to the head of the opponent, but it is possible to inflict heavy damage on the UCOE army, so we can give it a try.”
The commissioner smiled, “It is most important that you agree with our plan! All things are in your hands.”
“I will underneath.” He said humbly.
After listening to an encrypted message, the base commander reported to Mrs. Fumaran, “Sir, the steel bomb ‘Saina’ is also approaching!”
The President’s eyes instantly glazed over, “Once the two major steel bombs come together, the moon’s outer universe is about to kick up a monstrous storm!”
Phantom Ultimate Steel Bullet TD – Beacon Justice
Chapter 5─Vicious Battle! Wrath of War God Marth─Chapter of Sneaky Change Battle Clouds Re-emerge (2) The Mobile Suit ‘Saina’ flew into the W3 hangar and descended. Lazori Leo was picked up by the elevator and brought to the ground, he took off his helmet in style and took a step towards the crowd.
“Greetings, Mr. Chairman and officers!” The green-haired youth greeted those present with a military salute, his attitude subdued.
Fumaran nodded and said, “With two first-rate combat pilots gathered here, there may be a chance for the future of the moon colony. Please make sure you repel the Earth coalition forces so that the Moon can have eternal life.”
Dinky and Lazori would understand the urgency of the trip. The two men looked at each other oppositely, neither speaking.
Chairman Lou Baia quickly broke the silence: “Let me introduce you two to each other – Mr. Ding, this is Lazuli Leo, the superior pilot of the colony’s Steel Bomb; Lazuli, this is Mr. Ding Qi, the controller of the Steel Bomb TD.”
“Sir, we’ll meet on the battlefield.” The Moonwatch young man smiled faintly, “For a novice, he’s doing poorly.”
The young Chinese man didn’t get angry, instead he said, “In terms of the requirements of a steel bullet pilot, Mr. Lazori is way above the standard.”
The green-haired man’s mouth lifted lightly, “You really think highly of me, Mr. Ting.”
“Good point. I was originally a ‘Tang Ji Khorde’ who was new to the world, so please do not hesitate to teach me what I don’t know.” Ding Qi did not want to show off his tongue.
The lady was so angry and amused that she eased the occasion a bit: “Since the two pilots have met, why don’t we shake hands as a sign of friendship? It would be a good way to show the Moon Watch some hospitality.”
Lazzoli, no longer insisting, volunteered to stretch out his arms flat, his palms and fingers struck straight; and the young Chinese did just as he was told. The pilots’ hands met and clasped.
“Welcome to the moon, Mr. Ting. Just now merely trying your witty response, please don’t be offended!” The Moonwatch youth said with warmth and courtesy.
Ding Qi smiled, “I have long heard of the name of the steel bullet ‘Sayina’, and today I have seen it, and it is indeed extraordinary. I have a lot to learn from you, and I will work harder.”
It took more than ten seconds for their palms to separate. Both men realized that their opponent’s wrist strength and finger strength were amazing, and Lazzoli didn’t have any advantage.
”The pilot of the Steel Bullet TD is not a simple person, in the future, he will definitely be a powerful enough enemy to rival me!” The green-haired young man was naturally wary.
Seeing that the two had finished their fight, Madam President spoke: “You should be clear about the assignment of the task. In the vastness of the starry sky, the two of you must support each other and help each other in order to maximize your chances of winning. I always say – ‘one plus one must be more than two’; if ‘one plus one equals zero’, or even negative, then it is better to work alone! However, the current situation does not allow us to be individual heroes alone, and a cooperative relationship that complements each other is what I would like to see.”
“Sir Chairman, I understand!” The two pilots replied in unison.
Fumaran gave a wink to the commissioner. He immediately understood: “Now load the two mobile fighters in the transport ship!”
Jacksons gave the order: “Heavy cranes one, two, three and four! Begin lifting steel bullets to the trailer! Be careful! If I hear a collision – even a slight scrape – you won’t get the rest of the week off!”
After fixing the steel cables, the reloading spreader crews work together. The commanding sergeant carefully instructs the machine’s rotation angle, height, and torque, fearing that something will go wrong.
“Good~! This will work! Maintain the twenty-seven degree declination angle! Gently lower the ‘Sayana’!
Slowly~, slowly~…” The placement of the Moon Watch Motorized Warrior is complete.
The Steel Bullet TDs were also successfully loaded onto the trailers in accordance with the process. Two trailers pull into the Cyclops.
In the center, the pilot soldier disembarked immediately.
Next, they brought in a bunch of scrap machinery and weapons into the lower hold, intending to disguise themselves as a ‘garbage ship’ delivering cosmic waste – a harmless-looking ‘Trojan horse’.
“Report! The motorized fighters are settling in! The ‘Cyclops’ is ready to go as well!” The old sergeant presented to the commander.
The base commander faced the President, “Ma’am, you may proceed with the plan of attack.”
The Chairman of the ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’ ordered in an unprecedentedly forceful tone, “It is now 10:23 a.m. Lunar time. The Council of Representatives has ordered the Mobile Fighters to attack from the third base! At the same time, the mobilization of the Resistance Army is officially announced – 1:00 pm sharp – to launch a counterattack against the UCOE forces in the universe! The colonies are determined to fight against tyranny!”
“Yes!” All personnel stood at attention and resumed their orders. Eyes were each sharp.
Dinky and Lazori looked at each other, “It’s our turn!” “Out!”
The two fine young men ran to the passenger cabin of the ‘Cyclops’ and prepared to lift off.
“Jack Sang.” Fumaran called to the Staff Sergeant Major who would be boarding the transport.
“What can I do for you, ma’am?” The old Staff Sergeant asked.
The President murmured softly, “I’m counting on you for everything! Please take good care of those two children and send them safely into space.” I’m still worried.
Jacksons laughed: “Just for the sake of my decades of friendship with the Galuye family, I’ll take care of it! Madam.” He leisurely stepped into the cockpit.
The freighter slowly slid off the ramp and into the landing strip. The Chief Petty Officer was in attendance, monitoring several of his subordinate Flight Attendants and Technician Sergeants.
“Tower, this is the ‘Cyclops’! This is the Cyclops, ME 7970, requesting permission to take off. Mission code name – ‘Trojan Horse’.”
“OK! Identification obtained! Indeed ‘Cyclops’. Mission code name is legitimate, channel R006 is open for your ship’s use.”
The bottom jets of the transport intensified and the ship rose sharply. “Locking on course R006, downward jet import! Commencing forward!”
The ‘Cyclops’ carried the steel bombers in a beautiful diagonal forty-eight-degree stance as it drifted away, hidden from the eyes of the people who were seeing it off.
Chairman Fumaran suddenly turned around and said, “The real battle will only begin now! Let’s go back to the war center and wait for their further notice!”
An administrative and military dignitary rushed back to his destination on a transportation vehicle. B…
The sky is green, the clouds are white, and the plains are green. Aboard the ‘Cyclops’ heading into outer space.
Razori and Dinky each look out the window and have something on their minds. One of them is thinking about his home planet, his old friend, his best friend, and his two confidants who shared the same pain; the other remembers the old days, the battles, and the aristocratic princess-like ladies of the family.
“Dinky, do you have any sad memories?” Razori asked about the young Chinese man, “Your eyes look sad…”
The black-haired young man smiled indifferently: “The past is like a dream, only to wipe the body of all kinds of things. I still can’t see through it, right?”
“By the sound of your voice, it seems like you’ve been through a lot.” The Moonwatch youth’s tone was not very pleasant, “Perhaps, similar to the past me?”
“Everyone has a past, and it is almost impossible to erase it or forget it. Especially impressive memories. That evidence of having lived, loved, hated, and been disillusioned will be inherited regardless of this world or the next.” Ding Qi seemed to smile.
The green-haired young man shrugged his shoulders, “What you’re talking about is simply the realm of philosophy! How much does it cost someone to desperately try to leave the past behind, to not recognize those traces, in order to be reborn, to have a new life? Like me, I have a past that I can’t let go of, and it can’t be solved with a ‘Letpastbepassed’.”
The young Chinese man simply nodded, “It is better to look to the future than to remember the past. The past glory of the colony must not be allowed to be buried in the dust of the universe. Lazori, perhaps you were not as well off before; and I see you now as intent, confident, and invincible! The pilot is the soul of the steel bomb, and with a first-rate pilot comes the strongest ‘Sayuna’!”
The young man laughed aloud and said, “That’s a good point! I’ve slowly forgotten why I got on the steel bullet and why I risked my life to defend the colony! The endless battle has gradually paralyzed my senses, stripped away my spiritual armor, and I’ve let go of all my original ideals and aspirations. If my only purpose in life is to fight, then the ‘Saina’ I ride is at best a weapon of death, not the bright hope we all dream of.”
Dinky smiled slightly, “That’s what I mean. This is also the bet I made with ‘Asura Zeus’ and my life – if I can exchange my small personal power for all the lives of all the human beings in the entire solar system that will succeed me, why not?”
“So we’re on much different ground, starting point.” Razori murmured, “It’s obvious that I’m much more selfish. Shame.”
“The lunar surface steel bullets were designed to guard the lunar colonies, there is nothing wrong with that.” The dark-haired young man said, “You’re right, ‘Sayuna’ should prioritize the interests of the Moon and its right to exist.”
The green-haired young man burst out laughing: “It’s a shame I didn’t get to know you sooner! Steel bullet pilots really do have a lot in common with each other! I’ll make you my friend!”
The two men happily shook hands as the two maneuvering pilots constructed a sturdy male friendship.
The old sergeant yelled through a dual-purpose loudspeaker, “Boys, we’ve only got 30 minutes left before we leave the moon’s gravitational circle! Are you ready for this? Remember to go around the artificial belt, it’s harder to be detected. If you don’t make it back, I, Mr. Jack, can’t save you! You’re on your own.”
“Boss Jackson!” Lazori called up the sergeant major’s ‘nickname’, “Don’t worry! Dinky and I won’t be looking for you guys to die with us!”
The sergeant major laughed, “Good boy, you’re not nervous at all, are you? You’re still in the mood to make fun of an old man like me?”
The green-haired youth was indifferent, “Boss, with you as our backing, there shouldn’t be anything to worry about.”
“Kid, I can’t play with steel bullets! You want help? It’s faster to help yourself.”
He smiled: “I know – once I enter the battlefield, the Grim Reaper will either be on my side or against me. I’m just sure – I won’t lose!”
“It’s enough to have this kind of courage!” The staff sergeant sighed, “The only thing left to do is which side will the gods favor?”
Ten minutes…, five minutes…, the time counted down by the second. The ‘Cyclops’ gradually approached the edge of the gravity zone.
Upon reaching the intended orbit, the ship first used the side holes to slowly remove the various sizes of the bottom layer of the discarded materials to form a perimeter around the artificial planet.
“Dick, Tommy! The two of you go to the upper level cargo bay and disengage the magnetic amplitude steel cables used to secure the mobile fighters on the trailer one by one!” Jackson commanded himself.
The two tech sergeants air-dived and slid into the open hatch, skillfully loosening the grommets of the rigging. “Boss! We’re good this way!” They climbed back down the same way.
The old Staff Sergeant roared with pride, “Steel Bullet Pilots! It’s your turn!”
“Understood! Thanks boss!” Lazori looked down at Dinky, “Let’s go, it’s our turn to show up!”
The young Chinese man responded calmly, “Mr. Sergeant Major, thank you very much!”
“Where! Get on with it! Young man! Go and give those UCOE dictatorial wusses a taste of what a real ‘steel bullet’ is!”
Each of the two leapt into the Mobile Suit they belonged to. ‘Sayna’ and ‘Asura-Zeus’ eyes lit up as their energy operated.
“You heard and understood! ‘Cyclops’ will keep circling the orbit of Luna ZM79 until all fighting is over! Hopefully, it will bring back your complete bodies.”
The Moonwatch youth couldn’t help but object: “That’s the most negative ‘blessing’ I’ve ever heard, Boss. You might as well be optimistic.”
Mr. Jackson laughed and said, “I need to see the smile of the Goddess of Victory before I can let go of my heart. “Cyclops, open the lid…”
The transporter’s hatch opens, exposing the cargo hold to the vacuum. Two steel bombs stood upright, fearlessly gazing out into the blackness of space. Dots of starburst diamonds face a giant blue-white jewel.
“The Earth is quite beautiful from this angle!” The green-haired young man said smoothly, “Dinky, do you get scared with so many enemies?”
“If I were afraid, I wouldn’t be here.” The Chinese youth said seriously: “According to legend, in the age of myth, Mother Earth is connected to the hearts and blood of all things on earth. When the world is in trouble, everything suffers. Before the crisis came, all creatures’ hearts would sing a melody – ‘The Light of Life’. It is the prayer of all life on earth, an eulogy of heartfelt connection!
When I was a child, standing among the towering mountains of Tibet, China, I heard this song — long and mournful, resonating in the pores of Mother Earth’s suffering. She was calling me. So I roamed about with steel bullets, and tried but to keep the mournful ‘glory of life’ from being preached; only to make it a happy song again.”
Razori was silent for a moment, “‘The light of life’? ┅It turns out to be so. Dinki, here’s the deal! Whoever falls first will give the crown of ‘Strongest Steel Bullet’ to the other unconditionally. What do you think?”
“It’s not quite the right time for this proposal, is it?” He laughed bitterly, “At this moment, no matter who falls, it’s not a good thing. Why don’t we formally compete and slice and dice later when we have the time to do so?”
“Fine! We’ll talk about it after we finish this battle.” The Moonwatch youth informed the ship’s command module, “We’re ready! Boss!”
“Prepare to untie the final linking cable! Release the maneuvers!” At Staff Sergeant Jackson’s command, the two steel bombs floated out of the ship.
The old sergeant laughed and said, “Wait until you come back singing a song of triumph! Don’t sacrifice so easily!”
“Eh!” The two pilots responded together, “No matter what the endgame is, die as you wish!”
Deep inside the Bewilderment Junkyard, the Mobile Fighters gracefully stretch their strong wing feathers in the darkness of the Aegis.
Dinky hit the ignition light button first, “Engine on! Forty percent power!”
Lazori also ignited his waist-winged photo-dissociative energy turbine engines, “Start! Thirty-eight percent power!”
“Target area – UCOE military garrison; main mission – do your best to destroy the enemy, and don’t return until it’s accomplished!” They’ve communicated consensus and confirmed completion rates.
“Steel Bullet TD,” “Mobile Suit G Improved ‘Saina’,” “We’re moving out with the will and expectations of the people of the Lunar Colony. “The G”!
With the two steel bombs at full power, two streams of meteor-like rain pierced through the black field and quietly rushed towards the Earth Alliance’s position. B…
Located at the end of the Artificial Confusion Starfield, the UCOE army was in the area of Zaliu. Operational preparations are precisely what is burning with urgency.
“Report Marshal! Another of the Moon’s military freighters stayed in orbit of ZM79 for a while, releasing much of its waste, interspersed with several large unidentified objects. It then flew away, orbiting and releasing its supplies. I’d like to ask for your judgment on whether or not the intentions are suspicious.” Because of the sensitive time, a colonel intelligence officer reported directly to Lieutenant General Pei Ge by telegram.
The Commander stroked his beard, “The freighter itself does not appear to be hostile, nor does it land or take off with any great frequency. Have you traced the flow and structure of the suspected object?”
“The area around ZM79’s orbit is an artificial star-fuzzy zone, with a lot of space junk scattered about. Each of these objects emits interference waves that can disable radar. And the size of the first few points of light that I recognized were quite impressive, and would be difficult to identify once they were dropped into the Bewilderment Zone – could they be junk? It would be wise to check.” The Colonel slurred a bit.
“Have they abandoned any trash of similar size on previous occasions?”
“There are! There are quite a few.”
The lieutenant general shook his head: “It could be useless satellites, or large energy generators, broken ships, or dismembered robots, it’s hard to guess and judge! Garbage has been a problem for mankind since the beginning of time, and we have to dump garbage every day when we go to war. It’s a common occurrence, no need to make a fuss about it! I don’t see the need to send a special search team to patrol that area, it’s not a waste of manpower, and it saves me a lot of nerves.”
“Obey! Subordinate knows!” The intelligence officer asked for instructions and immediately cut off the connection.
Orena shook her head: “These intelligence officers didn’t take care of the big things they should be in charge of, but they can see the small things very clearly!”
“Hmph!” Pei Ge was not very pleasant, “They are newly selected specialists, so it’s not wrong for them to pay attention to details and be nervous. It’s just that even the enemy took out the trash and asked if they wanted to send someone to take a look? These young officers! Oh, no.”
The adjutant Qian smiled, helpless, “It should be a lack of ability, right? Therefore big and small things all depend on the most senior to decide, can reduce the responsibility.”
The Commander inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly, “What can be done? Where is a progressive planet without a strong leader? Oleana, what is the progress of Minister Moses’ allocation of personnel?”
“Yes, the report is as follows – troop strength is 55 percent complete; weapons loaded and overhauled at 61 percent. These are the figures from the battle report that came in from the General Staff ten minutes ago.”
“It’s going quite well. I hope there will be no sudden failures.” Pei Ge was already as sensitive to the unexpected as a frightened bird.
The blonde maiden comforted, “General, don’t worry. My subordinates will keep an eye out for you.”
The UCOE Legion could never have dreamed that a war was on the horizon, knocking on the door of destiny. B…
Two of the maneuvering fighters that had come to take on the challenge were passing through the gaps in the artificial starburst belt. The pilots are calm and alert, aware of the changing environment. The exhale was subtle.
Dinky asked the battle control computer ‘Hamish’: “How far are we from the enemy parking area? What are the chances of being detected?”
“Master, there are still ten cosmic kilometers to go. Please note that once we leave the Bewilderment Cluster, we will be in open space, with no place to hide or conceal ourselves. Once the steel bullets appear, they will enter the operating area or visual range of the other side’s remote flying cameras, and when they encounter the HK robots, they will have to fight each other!”
“Oh~” the dark-haired youth had his hand on the joystick, “What else do we have to guard against besides combat cyborgs? Like the turrets of battleships and main ships?”
‘Hamish’ said in a calm voice: “According to calculations, based on the vast number of Earth Alliance ships, the secondary defense fast photon cannon array and other close-range weapons have a very high probability of being used. The main guns of the main ships, with their terrifying power, will pose a serious threat to the mobile warriors; however, since the space ships are quite close together, if they fire arbitrarily, they are bound to accidentally injure their own people.”
The young man nodded his head and whispered: “Your analysis is correct! According to the concept of the main ship, the steel bullet is a small target that is not easy to aim at. Unless someone is so entangled with us that they are willing to risk their own life for the damage to a mobile fighter. Since the UCOE was founded, we’ve never heard of any great martyrs like this. They’ve all been sacrificed without their knowledge.”
“It’s ironic! Life has no value or dignity in a ruthless battle.” The computer seemed to disapprove of this approach.
Ding Qi lamented: “There is a Chinese saying: ‘Sacrifice the small self to fulfill the big self’, that’s what it means. As for whether the ‘ego’ is willing or not? It doesn’t matter. There is a strategy in the Thirty-Six Stratagems of the Ancients called ‘plum for peach stalemate’ – that is, for the plum tree ‘to suffer on behalf of others’, so that the peach tree can escape a disaster or self-preservation, and even seek benefits.”
‘Hamish’ returned, “I see. Anyway, it’s all about the ultimate victory, whatever it takes. In Greek mythology, the god of war, Mace, was unpopular because he represented death, darkness, and pain, right?”
“The wrath of Mas…” the young man from Earth said softly, “has traveled a path where blood has flowed and ghosts have cried out in the wilderness, and only the souls of the brave warriors can be guided and rested. Only the souls of the brave warriors can rest in peace. The horses of Marth are now in conflict between the UCOE and the colonies, and this is only the beginning.”
The computer changed the subject, “There are still 800 meters to go before we leave the planetary territory! Master.”
The youth opened communication with the ‘Sayna’ connection, “Lazori, do you hear me?”
“Know! It’s almost time to fight the enemy!” The young man of the moon calmly replied.
“Ready ~ ready ~! Hamish, enter the first level of readiness!” The Chinese pilot ordered: “‘Dragon Sword’, take it out!”
‘Asura Zeus’ drew the handle of his sword away from his left waist side and swung open the safety sheath, “Open~!”
An unusually sharp laser sword formed.
The Lunar Steel Bullet gripped its palms together and the golden spear body was born, “‘St. Artemis’s Spear of Light’ is activated!” It grasped the spear in its grip and swung it in a circle, the sound of it shaking the sky.
“One hundred and fifty meters..! Fly out of the Bewilderment Belt!” The Mobile Suit TD’s battle control computer alerted the controller.
As soon as the two young steel bullet pilots arrived in the vast open space, their eyesight was opened. What amazed them even more was the number of ships in the UCOE coalition.
Razori was stunned first, “This is the first time I’ve seen so many warships… it’s like a locust crossing!”
“Too big to be true, too many is like none.” The young Chinese man smiled slightly: “Soldiers are more valuable than many.”
The young man nodded his head frequently: “You do have a point. A military organization that is too large is extremely difficult to use and integrate.”
‘Hamish’ interjected: “Gentlemen, forgive me for interrupting. According to the assembly and tonnage of the warships in front of us, they belong to the ‘Noah’ class destroyers. It is in charge of scouting, defense and forward missions.”
“It’s the white herons that the bulky hippos use to guard and look into the distance while they sleep, isn’t it?” Dinky said metaphorically, “Simply get rid of the herons and the hippos will wake up on their own.”
After hearing this, Razori shouted, “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go straight in!”
Together with the Soldiers of Mobility, they will once again venture into the dungeons and caves of snakes and demons…
On the front line of the war, a watch commander on the destroyer Cobra was reviewing the images from the satellite camera, and he was feeling drowsy and very bored. The officer pinches his cheeks to avoid dozing off.
He had a few danglers in the same position scattered around him, and their spirits were less than uplifted.
As he yawned, he complained about this kind of drudgery to his fellow soldiers: “Every day, I see some monotonous and boring astronomical images, with no changes at all! How can it be fun? I wish I had something hot and exciting to do!”
“Why don’t we go rent a microdisc and watch an action movie after our shift?” Everyone crossed their fingers in favor.
“No, wait a minute.” The sergeant noticed that one of the frames appeared to have a foreign object in it, and he scaled up the screen, clarified it, and finally got the results he wanted to see.
The duty sergeant’s eyes widened in shock and his fingers trembled: “My… my… God…”
Sleepyheads knocked off one by one in his brain, and his tongue proceeded to tie itself in knots, babbling pure ravings.
“Hey! What’s going on? See how scared you are? What the hell are you up to?”
The officers and men on duty were laughing and joking and all leaned around to watch.
When I glanced down, seven or eight UCOE soldiers shouted in unison, “What…? Steel bullets! Why are there suddenly two mobile fighters?” He was hysterical.
Asura Zeus and Sayana were drawn on the screen, and anyone could see that they were coming in this direction!
The sergeant, who managed to regain his composure a little, decided, “Quickly report to the rear layers! If we delay, we’ll be in deep shit!”
“Objects are showing up on the bow front! No good! It’s those two steel bombs!” The radar man yelled, pointing off the bridge.
Before the protective fire net could fire, the Ultimate Steel Bomb continued to charge forward, his lightsaber raised to the sky, “Split this destroyer!” The pilot pressed down on the lever, the maneuvering soldier angled his body sideways, and the ‘Dragon God Sword’ slashed downward!
The bridge of the Cobra split in two and exploded immediately, red flames leaking into the lonely blackness of the airspace. The blade slashed again, the port side of the ship cut and bent, and a dense ball of fire sprang up from the hole.
The ‘Saynah’ was not idle, it stretched out its light spear flatly, and quickly and easily cut from the bow to the stern, and the battleship was completely ‘cut off’.
It sank without a sound and rested within the firelight. There was not the slightest room to fight back.
Neighboring friendly ships were shocked to see the enemy mobile fighters boldly sneaking in, and for a while they were in a state of confusion. The ships that had fired their guns were blasting around like headless flies, while those that had not fired were still quickly recalling their combatants to their positions.
The captain of the ‘Julius Caesar’ immediately ordered his men to send an urgent message to the command ship, “Command Center, this is ‘Julius Caesar’! Report… report! Mobile Fighters have appeared! There are two of them! What’s most incredible is that the excellent Cobra has been sunk in an instant!” The screen is slightly distorted, and communications are being scrambled by the confusion zone.
Secretary of Staff Moses, who had just gone on a tour of the command center, answered the call himself, “What did you say? A steel bullet? Are you sure?” He couldn’t believe his ears.
“Can’t be wrong! Sir, they just destroyed another destroyer! They just destroyed another destroyer! It’s the Florida.
No! We don’t have enough firepower! Can’t suppress the motorized fighters! The enemy is simply too agile!”
The captain looked at his neighbor who was burning as a cloud of fire within the split sub-screen and couldn’t help but panic.
The minister’s face turned blue and his voice was a bit out of tune: “You guys hold on for now! I’ll mobilize the HK Mechanical Unit for support! Don’t let the steel bullets cross the first line of defense!”
“Whoa! One of them is coming at us! It’s a Lunar Mobile Suit! Fire the cannon! Drive it away! …” The transmission was suddenly interrupted and turned back to a dark blue. The situation was clearly not good.
The Chief of Staff telegraphed to the entire army, “to break the original formation of the colonies which had been scheduled to attack the Moon Table!
Allocate 10% of each attack group to the command headquarters for defense! The fleet will be withdrawn together!
You can’t make a steel bullet kill the core decision area!”
”It’s infuriating! The traitors of the colony have the audacity to send mobile fighters to invade our army?
I’ll make sure that you can come and go as you please! I’ll make you come and go as I please,’ Moses’ anger was so great that he clenched his fists to keep from fainting.
The minister quickly reported the current situation to Commander-in-Chief Pei Ge, “Admiral, the steel bombs ‘Sayna’ and ‘Asura Zeus’ have invaded our position, and are currently engaged in a battle with the Destroyer Regiment at the front line!”
“Bastards!” The Lieutenant General slammed his desk, “Moses, how could you not have recognized them? Were you asleep?” Oleana was also shocked-it was the first time she had ever seen her grandfather in such a rage.
The gray-faced Moses said in fear, “Please don’t be angry! I am trying to remedy the situation! I’ve already called the ships that are waiting to attack to return at the highest possible speed! The existing HK combat robots will be prioritized to fly into the war zone, along with the troops that have been transferred back, we will be able to save and stabilize the situation!”
The Commander slapped the desk again, “Listen up! If I ever see a Sweeney on the Pann.
If you appear within half a kilometer of the ship-Moses, you’ll be waiting for the ‘Soul Sentence’ electric chair!” Pei Ge was furious, and the communication was quickly cut off.
The Chief of Staff remained in his original position for a long time without uttering a word, filled with resentment…
“Attention First Attack Group! The situation is different! We have reports of enemy forces attacking the garrison! Bring back the entire fleet!” The Tactical Instructor was ordered to relay, “HK droids in the eight troop carriers on the trailing edge return to HQ first! Our first line of defense needs help!”
The transport ship immediately released a large number of war robots, each in various formations, advancing as fast as possible to the rear, hoping to catch up with the backup.
The other two groups were handled accordingly. A large number of HK Heavy Armored Troops were approaching the two steel bombs in the heat of the battle, and the storm circle was constantly shifting…
“Garrison Mechanical Corps on the move!” The troop carriers at the center of the position’s defenses opened up, and the HK troops sailed out one after the other in their foot-mounted cosmic warfare specialties, like a swarm of worker bees leaving their nests to gather honey.
Dinky and Razori broke through more than ten destroyers in a row, traveling between ion beams, dodging, attacking and stabbing, how can a ship with weak mechanical power resist? The ships were broken and severely damaged, and their combat power was lost.
The young man on the moon received a system warning: “It seems the sleeping hippo has awakened! Dinky, the other side is giving us a grand parade welcome!” The starbursts of light were not very friendly.
“Excellent!” The young Chinese man smiled: “To successfully divert the enemy’s attention to us is the purpose of this raid. Now that we’re here, there’s nothing to think about, just charge forward!”
The steel bullets ignored the obstruction of the expulsion fleet. When Asura Zeus encountered an obstacle, he swung his ‘Dragon God Sword’ to remove it; Saina even whirled her ‘St. Artemis Light Spear’, and the wind of the spear swept through the depression. Their unanimous goal was to reduce the strength of the allied forces until the enemy camp was disrupted.
‘Hamish’ detects the latest developments in the Mechanical Army, “Master! We’re ten minutes away from catching fire with the HK hordes! We’ve got a little over 3,000 of them! There are 4,000 of them still in the rear, standing by.”
The pilot of the Motorized Warrior TD’s face remained unchanged, and he said calmly, “Even if I have to die in battle, I have to do it in a glorious manner! However, I have too much to do to die before the future of peace and glory!”
“Good! Master, I will always follow you!” The war control computer swore its allegiance.
“Add more power!” Ding Qi’s dragon whistle is quite magnetic, “Don’t let the enemy wait too long!”
Chinese steel bullets surge in speed and leave no lag.
Lazori lifted and pulled the lever, “How can I lose to you? ‘Sayna’, don’t let the Terrans look down on you! Full speed ahead!” The Lunar Surface Mobile Warrior drew a long rainbow, lashing out strongly at the oncoming enemy, fearlessly.
The Ultimate Steel Bullet TD’s sword handle was raised, and the sword’s light shot out in all directions, cutting through the armor of three UCOE machines that were trying to bump into each other. Three clusters of sparks burst, a brilliant. The ‘Saina’ poked light spears one after another, and the four enemy HKs were pierced through, and all of them went to the west.
“The numbers are amazing! There’s quite a difference between air combat and ground combat!” The dark-haired youth bellied up, “‘Hamish’, we’re surrounded with the Moonwatch Mobile Fighters! We must break through!”
Numerous HK robots flew back and forth in a staggered pattern, their cannons violently and furiously striking the ‘Asura-Zeus’ and ‘Sayna’.
The computer calculates, “The laser sword alone is not enough to break the deadlock! Let’s start with the ‘Thunder Blast Pill’! If that doesn’t work, we’ll have to use the Phoenix Chant!”
“Got it!” The pilot shouted, “‘Kurei-Maru’-Spread~Out~!”
Twelve Sphere Self-Flying Cannons – ‘Kurenai Maru’ broadcast from the back of the Steel Bullet TD, open flanks, auto-focused aiming, avoiding injuries from stray cannons.
‘Sayna’ withdrew her spear of light. The young man from Moonwatch called out, “Take out the ‘Light Bow of St. Diana’!”
It’s left arm stretched out flat, finger palm half flexed, b only gold-colored laser moon bow is shown, thin silk bowstring emits seven-colored dazzling star.
The ‘St. Diana’s Light Bow’ is made of the magnetic field and energy resonance between the bow and the string to produce light ionized lightning arrows, and the bow is held by the hand of the steel bullet, aiming at the target, radiating and accelerating with the magnetic field to control the arrow’s distance. The energy of a light arrow can destroy eight to ten HK robots, the arrow speed can reach Mach 10.7, and the range is nine to twelve cosmic kilometers. Not only can it be used for single shot, continuous shot, or even multiple shots, the destructive power can be imagined.
The Lunar Mobile Warrior opens his bow and draws the string, “Up five light arrows!” Lazori inputs instructions.
Five snow-white laser arrows appeared on the bow and the silk string, containing powerful energy.
“Both steel bombs have changed their weapons, so watch out!” The UCOE team leaders instructed their men to be cautious of the enemy’s next move.
The green-haired youth called out boldly, “Dinky! Shouldn’t you be ready to charge?”
“No problem! To the end!” The young Chinese man shouted back.
Razori nodded his skull, “Then… let’s… begin! Go~!” The ‘Sayana’ flew out, ready to fire the arrow.
“Good! On!” Ding Qi sported the ‘Blast Thunder Pill’. The steel bullet TD cut and meandered, picking and raising to the left, looking for an underhand point.
The two major mobile fighters, symbolizing the ‘Grim Reaper’, are about to send a cloud of war into the outer space of the moon. The few against the many.
Who’s going to die?
Phantom Ultimate Steel Bullet TD – Beacon Justice
Chapter 5─Vicious Battle! The Wrath of the God of War Marth─The Chapter of Sneaky Changes Battle Clouds Re-emerge (3) The steel bullet pilots faced the layers of surrounded enemy troops, and each of them prepared their weapons to start the precursor of the battle to the death. Dinky’s heart was in a state of flux, a dark tide in the midst of a calm current. Holy war, or, fighting for the justice he believed in.
“‘Blast Thunderball’! Point Scatter Attack!” The young Chinese man used his willpower to control the flying sphere, forcing the evil enemies around him to scatter with a meteor shower of successive shots.
Purple rain is spitting out, twelve ball cannons are spraying dense thermal fusion lines to erode through the opponent’s mounts. In an instant, the fire lotus blossomed, the HK armored force was in turmoil, the offensive and defensive positions were out of order, the UCOE returned fire, the loss was uncontrollable, and the steel bullet TDs were already in full force.
The Venusian sphere followed the maneuvering of the Asura Zeus and flew in all directions, sweeping the purple and red rays of light everywhere, and releasing them in turn in a lantern-like fashion. Wherever the steel bullets passed through, the remains of the mechs of the earth alliance forces returned to the universe, and the ash smoke disappeared in the desert.
‘Sayna’ bent his bow and held his arrow, “Good! Nine o’clock is full of enemy troops!” The pilot pulled the fuselage around and aimed at the target area.
Razzoli placed the crosshairs of the computerized locator sighting device at the center of the enemy position, “EMF enhancement! Arrow speed Mach 7.2! Release ~arrows~!”
The five light arrows spun off the strings, spiraled and fused together, forming a comet-type shape at high speed and shooting out towards the opponent’s dense area!
The HK droid that took the brunt of the attack was run straight through by the abdominal piloting area, and the entire hull instantly disintegrated and swam away. The armored troopers next to and behind it were affected by the light arrows, and were hit by their magnetic and high-energy waves, bursting into flames.
The ‘St. Diana’s Light Arrow’ continuously burst through ten protective array walls before its energy was exhausted, and the white light drew thin, eventually disappearing.
The young man of the moon immediately racked another arrow, “Load the arrow! Fire!” There was no time to hesitate, the harsh reality of the battlefield. One step slower, and lives are lost.
The colonial mobile warrior unleashed a barrage of arrows. Fast, furious, and accurate, Goddess Diana’s arms and skills seem to lend themselves to Lazori’s defense of her beloved city and planet.
When the first layer of the allied defense network suffered a serious blow, the subsequent UCOE mechanical armor then replenished it, and it was followed by another one. It was as if there was an endless stream of them.
“Quick! Defeat the steel bullets! Stop them! Don’t retreat!” The captains of the detachments encouraged their team members to fight their way to the front, but they themselves did not dare to rush into battle.
The Chinese mobile warrior’s ‘Kurenai Maru’ hovered above its head, “Disperse! Charge into the enemy area! Begin rotational fire!” Dinky intended to use the ball cannon that flew into the range of the opponent’s guards to do a ‘spinning shot’ attack.
The sphere’s wing guns were spinning in a gyroscopic manner, and waves of purple and red curved light were like ocean waves attacking the armored robots that were swooping forward around them. The metal pieces and parts that were scattered and blown to pieces were accelerated along with the rotation of the sphere, and the hurricane disaster brought by the twelve typhoon eyes dealt a great blow to the allied forces that had been replenishing their attack. However, the fruitfulness of the ‘sea of men tactic’ was seen in the history of human warfare, and had never failed.
“Even if the steel bullets are sharp, the manipulators are ultimately flesh and blood. As long as we’re not afraid to sacrifice, they’ll surely get tired until their movements are sluggish!” Minister Moses, who was sitting in the command center, was truly reckless with human lives, “At that time, it’ll be an opportunity to take advantage of it!”
He urged the fleet that had turned back to defense to send HK armor by urgent telegram and rescue the base as a priority. “Lips are falling, if the rear is overrun, you won’t have to return to the build-up!” The Minister fondly remembers the threat of ‘punishment for leaving the soul’ raised by his superiors.
“Logistics!” Moses contacted the supply unit, “When will the new ‘Raya Leaf’ fighters get here?”
The supply sergeant who answered the phone replied, “Sir, it will be at least another 40 minutes or so. There’s been a delay in launching the Canberra base in Australia. Mainly due to bad weather.”
“If we keep dragging this out, no one will be able to stay in service at UCOE!” The minister’s heart was not very pleasant, “The general is already irritated. If we don’t hurry up, we’ll be left with nothing to eat!”
Of course, the sergeant could hear the meaning of the words, “Yes! I will keep pushing the ground base and monitor the whole transportation process.”
Moses felt slightly relieved, “Leave it in your hands, no mistakes!” He quickly cut off the message and turned his attention back to the hot battle at the front. …
While the mobile fighters are using their new weapons, the enemy combatants are still swarming all around them. Progress was limited.
“Master! There are five enemy planes on the left flank that are eager to seize the attack!” The battle control computer ‘Hamish’ warned the Chinese youth, “There is still a dead zone in the ‘Blast Thunderball’s’ firing!”
Dinky nodded, “I understand, use the ‘Dragon Excalibur’ to make up the difference.” The young man pulled up on the steering stick, and the ‘Asura Zeus’ was elevated at a thirty-degree angle, facing the enemy head-on.
The five HK bots managed to escape the swirling stream of thermal melt and flew diagonally to bully their way into the forward path of the Ultimate Steel Bullet TD.
“Yah~!” ‘Asura Zeus’ left arm arced a sword light from the lower right, and a UCOE intruder in the center cracked a long slit from the side of the left waist, straight to the right shoulder coercion.
The HK blew up on the spot, and the other four scattered and flew in an attempt to escape the Chinese mobile fighters. They dodged and fired back, and the dark-haired young man didn’t see it coming.
Aquamarine Steelbomb shifted sideways and intensified his engine jet, trying to take care of the scattered foes on his right first.
“I didn’t realize R-type HK’s were so nimble. Can’t let them go!” Dinky had already made his prediction, “‘Hamish’, synchronize and lock on to the enemy’s activities!”
“Roger that! Monitor in the meantime!”
The motorized warrior broke out of the fire net of the two enemy planes, raised both arms, and the laser sword fell continuously, showing an ‘X’ shaped cross-sword light. This is the ‘X-word Chop’ that the young man from the East specializes in. The meeting point is located between them, the two HK’s are broken into three, and immediately exploded violently.
The two remaining robot pilots were scared out of their wits: “That’s amazing! How can we possibly beat it?” With their lives on the line, they search for a way to survive.
Seven more HK’s took advantage of the chaos and attacked ‘Asura Zeus’, picking up their proton cannons and giving it a good beating. The two HK’s simply joined them, not leaving – they knew very well how serious the offense of leaving before the battle was.
The steel bullet swings its sword to deflect the fire, and then closes in on the crowd of machines surrounding it. The mobile warrior stabbed the leftmost HK’s power zone with a reverse elbow; the sword shaft appeared and swept through four enemies, each with a broken waist and hand; Dinky deflected the ‘Asura Zeus’ by ninety degrees, and the ‘Dragon God Sword’ swiped at the last four robots, all of them were hit by the ‘Dragon God Sword’. All of them were hit and fell down.
Nine UCOE mainstays simultaneously fireballed their hoods, one by one turning to stardust and drifting into specks of gray debris. Unknown traces of history.
“How far have we advanced? ‘Hamish’.” The Chinese manipulator asked the battle control computer.
It replied, “About 1.3 cosmic kilometers. The enemy is holding out and is constantly replenishing their troops. It’s not easy to break through.”
“It’s been fifteen minutes of engagement without much buildup. The Earth allied forces are indeed strong.” Dinky commanded the mobile warriors to skim their swords and cut down another enemy cyborg.
The rear HK is like a tidal wave surging up, and the ‘Blast Thunder Pill’ in the frenzy still can’t be cleared away.
On the surface of the moon, the steel bullet ‘Sayna’ was also in the middle of a bitter battle. Lazori kept clicking the light button to fire, and arrows of light whistled through the starry sky, penetrating through the attacking armored soldiers of the allied forces. The fire roses bloomed and wilted in a cluster of flowers. The beauty and sorrow of the first moment.
The motorized warrior fires his bow, bends his knees, bends his arms and loosens the string, striking the enemy aircraft in the fatal part of its body. The young man of the moon’s customary combat technique – using the ‘St. Diana’s Light Arrow’ to accurately blast the high-speed interstellar meteorite rain – was either crushed into wreckage or tried to escape and survive. He survives and passes the final stage of this ‘combat training’ to officially take over ‘Sayuna’.
Razori fired another volley of arrows, taking down two dozen Earth combat troops, and adopted a steady, strategic attack. The situation was more complicated than he had anticipated – UCOE cruisers, combat ships, and main ships were following the massive advance of the HK robots. If they really had to face off against the large-caliber turrets or main guns of the huge mainships, how much of an advantage would steel bullets have?
He did not feel a little bewildered, but it soon disappeared. The driver must remain calm and collected.
A text appeared on the computer screen: “Warning! There is an enemy aircraft directly behind us.”
The colonial pilot quickly turned back to the body of the mobile warrior, five fingers straightened, a snow bright aura immediately penetrated through the steel armor of the enemy, and a large hole was formed in the middle of the abdomen, and the whole body was instantly destroyed.
”I really can’t let up at all!” The green-haired young man exhaled, ”They’re also waiting for the opportunity to strike at my weakness, I mustn’t expose any shortcomings.”
Lazori ordered with his voice: “Computer, connect me to Dinky’s end.”
The main screen separates into sub-windows. The shadow of a young Chinese man appears, still engaged in a fight with the enemy.
“Dinky, how was your battle?” He frequently shoots cold arrows to kill the enemy, not allowing HK to get close enough to get within 400 cosmic meters.
“Progress is limited.UCOE’s 30,000 troops are really tough to deal with, they really aren’t Wuxia. My battle skills are less honed after all, aren’t they?” The dark-haired young man laughed at himself.
Lunar youth smiled: “I’m a veteran of the frontier is not nothing to win? What should we do now? We’re just going to keep going with them like this?” His brows narrowed.
“Hmm~, the only thing I can do is to sacrifice the ‘Phoenix Phantom Chant’ to open up the letter path.” The young man thought about it and made a clear decision.
Hamish advised, “The power of the Phoenix Chant is still very difficult to control. Once utilized, it will take about five minutes for the TD to be unable to use any other weapons in order to convert its own and surrounding cosmic energy into a source of power for the energy cannon. During that time, we can only take a beating.”
“We must hold out! Otherwise, who will rescue the millions of people in the Moonface Colony?”
The computer compromised: “Yes, master. Of course I must follow your will, this is merely a Tsubaki suggestion.”
“I understand.” The young Chinese man said resolutely: “Raise the ‘Phoenix Phantom Chant’!”
The cone cannon mounted on the mobile warrior’s shoulder turned, its caliber pointing forward.
“Master, positioning complete!” The battle control computer resumed, “Please instruct the next step.”
Dinky ordered: “Release the barrel!” ‘Hamish’ controls the gun shell extension, the gun plume lightly raised, a winged swooping firebird proudly appeared in the world.
The young man on the moon couldn’t help but be amazed: ‘What kind of weapon system is this? It looks like the phoenix in ancient Chinese mythology!”
“Lazzoli! I intend to take it to open up our future! But there is about five minutes unable me to attack the enemy! Trouble you to hold our offensive zone with all your might!” The dark-haired youth called out.
The green-haired young man smiled, “What’s wrong with that? I’ll do as I’m told!” ‘Sayonara’.
Standing in front of ‘Asura Zeus’, he opened his bow and set up his arrows, waiting for the enemy to force an attack.
“Pour energy into the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ cannon and shut down the secondary attack systems.”
The body of the aquamarine blue firebird began to glow with a reddish hue, the Chinese steel bullet was absorbing all the cosmic energies running and transmitting in the space, and adding its own kinetic energy to it. The sword glow of the ‘Dragon God Sword’ is completely disappearing, and the energy saturation level of the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ is being increased one by one.
The UCOE defenders were pleased to see that one of the maneuvers had stopped – a good opportunity to attack. They flew into the airspace of the Steel Bombers in an exploratory manner to see what kind of response they would get.
“There are fourteen enemy planes encircling and attacking from the left and right flanks!” The computer subtitles signaled the alarm, and Lazori was just indifferent.
He nodded, “Got it! You’re here and you’re not going back!” The pilot presses the firing button and the light vectors fire off, hitting multiple targets. The sea of fire flowed, but HK was relentless.
The ‘Sayna’ didn’t dare to fly too far away from the Ultimate Steel Bullet TD, and relied solely on turning, adjusting its elevation, and pitching angle to shoot scattering arrows to block the enemy’s attack. The driver continuously fired many loose arrows, like a meteor shower in the night sky, magnificent and poignant.
“The enemy is coming again! Below! Pitch angle five degrees!” The Steel Bullet Battle Auxiliary computer displays an alert.
“The Underworld is still alive! Continuous fire!” The green-haired youth mobilized the joystick, the motorized warrior’s arm pressed down five degrees, the bowstring was drawn full, the closed palms released, and the light arrows were released!
Numerous R-type HK’s were hit by arrows and fell, the pierced arrows fueling the weapon’s energy and creating a chain reaction of blossoming fireballs that exploded in a string of shocking explosions. As the fireballs disappeared, more synergistic cyborgs surfaced behind them. The Coalition’s losses were heavy, but their replenishment was swift and effective.
Lazori dealt with the swarm of enemies in front of him, and the three-dimensional coordinate screen he was facing read out a few lines: “The first barrier of the Earth’s army has been lost, and all types of warships of the second line of defense are advancing towards us; in addition, the other side’s task force is on the way back, and the first robotic team is only five point eight kilometers away from us.”
‘This is going to be a bitter battle…’ As soon as the Moon Boy thought about it, he immediately asked the Chinese pilot, “Dinky! Can you fire on your side?”
The dark haired young man nodded, “I’m ready! Aim for the approaching large group of troops!
┅”
“Locking on UCOE enemy forces! Master, please push the button!” ‘Hamish’ reported.
Dinky yelled, “Lazori, pull yourself away from the Sayana! Get behind me!”
The Lunar Youth of course quickly avoided the range area of the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ and flew behind the ‘Asura Zeus’.
“Good! The ‘Phoenix Phantom’ cannon~, fire~!” The pilot of the mobile fighter calmly pressed the control button, and the brightly sizzling ball of light gathered in the muzzle of the cannon spilled out in a wide-angle beam in the direction of the enemy!
The allied soldiers were shocked at the sight – what kind of strange aura was that? It’s not a bluff, is it?
No, it’s the sound of death flapping its wings.
The energy of the nuclear pyrokinetic cannon distorted the black space it passed through, glowing with a hazy seven-colored light. The first HK armored soldiers instantly melted into gelatinous pulp, and the combatants inside instantly vaporized and disintegrated, merging with the hull.
One by one, the elite armored masters were all turned into scanty scrap alloys, useless space junk. The red flames continued to expand, reaching out to the brave allied mechanical armies, opening their mouths and swallowing up only the delicious little fish.
“No! Attention all armored machine squads─dodge immediately! That weapon is too dangerous!” The commander of the defense line warned his men.
Only, it was too late. The HK fighter group sent from Sector 2 was killed or wounded, and there was a vacuum. After the red glow, the depression was cold.
The commander of the defense line was sweating in fear as he stared at the battle on the huge screen on the bridge, “How powerful is the shoulder cannon that the Ultimate Steel Bullet TD just used? It’s horrible…”
He snapped back to his senses, “All battleships, on your mark, turrets full! Main guns charged and standing by! Destroy those two uninvited maneuvers!”
He stared intently at the battle ahead of him, “Pre~ready~! Open ~fire~!”
The beam cannons came down on the two maneuvers like a curtain, and Steelbomb TD and Saina dodged and zigzagged back to keep the cannons out of their way.
“Well~, the opponent is too fast to capture, I’m afraid the main guns of the normal battleships won’t be able to catch the enemy. The main guns of the secondary-class battleships stop recharging their energy! Our legion’s most powerful fortress-class main ship ‘Olympus’ advances!” The commander prepares to throw his weight around.
The semi-cone-shaped ‘Olympus’ is the largest main combat flying fortress in the UCOE’s military operation, and the rest of the main ships are probably like mice next to elephants compared to its size.
“All ships guard the ‘Olympus’! Olympus, magnetically deflecting main gun energizer replenishment! Targeting the Lunar Colony of Artemis! Since the Lunar Colony dares to use trickery to sneak up on us, we’ll hit them hard and destroy them! As a warning!” The commander lost his mind.
“Attention! Energy to main gun…, all other functions suspended…” The fortress began to load energy and prepare to shoot at the colony.
A large number of defense ships surrounded the fortress ‘Olympus’, and the steel bullets could not advance due to the strong firepower. The Asura Zeus and the Moon Mobile Suits were forced to retreat by the blasts.
Dinky and Lazorie Leo had an early sense of foreboding in their hearts as soon as they saw the giant ship, which was deadly enough.
“Master, according to where the opponent’s ‘Olympus’ main guns are aiming, it is most likely to be the first major city on the lunar surface, ‘Artemis’!” ‘Hamish’ estimated the trajectory of the cannon and issued a serious warning.
“What? It won’t work! They’ve gone crazy, how could they want to exterminate tens of millions of innocent lives?” The Chinese youth clenched his lower lip, “I must stop them!”
“Lazori, do you see its intentions?”
The young green-haired man nodded calmly, “Eh! What are you going to do?”
“The only viable method is the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ cannon on the shoulder of the Steel Bomb TD, which may be able to dissolve and suppress the energy emitted from the enemy’s giant cannon.”
The lunar youth shook his head, “It’s unlikely that there’s a disparity in the size ratio between the two, isn’t it?”
“The energy source of the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ is positive energy, while the reaction measured by the ‘Olympus’ main gun ports is negative energy─the two should be effectively neutralized if I unleash all my potential. ” Dinky boldly hypothesized.
Lazori still disapproved, “If it doesn’t work, you’ll lose your life in it.”
“My life alone is far less than the lives of the millions in the colonies, and I have to take that risk!” He was bound to do it.
“Fine. I’m giving up anyway.” The Lunar Pilot regarded death as a good thing.
The R-type HK, which had been hastily withdrawn from the front line, had arrived at the battle zone and immediately started a contact battle with the two steel bombs. The motorized warriors once again took up their swords and spears, and responded to the battle with ease. Dinky paid close attention to the movements of the ‘Olympus’.
The Coalition robots kept firing, and the Steel Bullet TD flashed two strikes in a row. The ‘Dragon God Sword’ lifted up, an arc of light slashed down, and another HK separated from it, exploding into a burst of fire.
“According to the simulator’s program calculations, there are twelve minutes to go before the enemy is in a launch-ready state!
“The war-control computer has alerted the Chinese youth again.
Dinky made up his mind, “Razoli, you cover the rear, I’ll deal with Olympus! In case something happens to me, please tell Sina and Yun Ru at the Confederate Office – I love them forever!”
“Hey! Kid, we haven’t officially dueled yet, you can’t just lose your life.” The Moonwatch youth said seriously after destroying three HKs with his light spear in a smooth manner.
“Lazori, when the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ clashes with the enemy’s main guns, you need to get out of the way, I don’t want you to get involved.”
“Take care of yourself first. There’s no need for you to worry about me.”
The dark-haired young man smiled in disbelief, “Steel Bomb TD, we are now entering the second phase! Cease attacking and prepare to infuse all of your energy, the cosmic energy you’ve absorbed, into the ‘Phoenix Chant’!”
‘Asura Zeus’ put away ‘Dragon God Sword’ and recalled ‘Blast Thunderball’, “Attention!
‘Phoenix Phantom’ cannons rising and unfolding!”
An ascending aquamarine phoenix bird bloomed its wings, “Aim the guns at the ‘Osprey’ ship’s main gun ports! Energy recharge in approximately ten minutes!”
“Good! Commence operations!” The Chinese pilot ordered.
The ‘Sayuna’ was again tasked with guarding the ‘Asura Zeus’, and was trying its best to crush the waves of enemy cyborgs that were coming in. Lazori lengthened the radius of the battle, spinning his spear in a circle to buy time.
The Ultimate Steel Bullet TD silently endured the bombardment from the enemy ships’ main guns, and was unable to fight back from the powerful shocks and explosions that surrounded its body. Dinky gritted his teeth to endure, holding the joystick tightly in his hand, never letting the maneuvering warrior falter and retreat a step, standing and aiming at the enemy directly in front of him.
“I must not fall before the ‘Phoenix Phantom’ is fired! …” The Chinese pilot’s only remaining belief, “To die…, I must die with a bang…”
Not only was the main energy of the steel bullet transferred, but Dinky had also injected his own super-exotic energy into the shoulder cannon’s energy collection area. The young man had channeled his life force into the steel bullet, merging with it.
The moonwatch steel bullet pierces another surging HK, draws it out, and reverses to send it into another lunging droid. Leaping and rushing out, fire and brimstone ensued.
“‘Eye of the Moon God’!” The green-haired youth shot out several laser boomerangs, waisting a dozen or so enemies who tried to cross the border.
“‘Chain Machine Bore Cannon’!” Saina chest suddenly open, six light cannons revealed, continuous sweeping shot to the HK in front, seven or eight hit and perforated, shocked to explode black fog. Survivors have to avoid, who dares to stand in front of it?
This is steel shot, one for one, no fear!
‘How much time do we have left?’ The only question on Dinky and Lazori’s minds.
“Reporting to the Commander, the Magnetic Polar Deflection Cannon is ready to fire!” The communications officer of the defense line command ship reported back.
“Very well! I’d like to see how two steel bombs can stop us. Release the safeties!”
“The safety gate is open.” The gun control sergeant responded.
The instructor hissed, “Fortress Olympus, shoot!”
The terrifying beam of the green-blue color of the Earth Alliance Super Main Cannon struck out, straight at the Ultimate Steel Bullet TD that was meant to be blocked!
“Lazori! Get out of the way!” The dark-haired boy alerted the moonwatch steel bullet.
The ‘Sayana’ cut loose and flew out of range of the enemy’s artillery.
At the same time, the weak Chinese steel bullet pilot tapped the deep purple-red light button: “I’ll fight for my life! The ‘Phoenix Phantom’ cannon! Fire!”
The Firebird’s cannon sends out a dazzling seven-colored light, colliding head-on with the incoming enemy beam! Within seconds, the two streams of positive and negative polarities of high heat energy fused and reacted, causing a chain of changes! The neutralized ball of light actually exploded towards the opposite side of the enemy!
“Ah! What’s going on here?” The commander of the UCOE Coalition’s second line of defense exclaimed in a loud voice.
Dinky knew this would happen and was prepared for it – there was no time to escape. Could TD withstand the steel bullets? He wasn’t sure.
The high-frequency energy backfired on both sides of the battle! The comet’s head penetrated the main ship of the fortress, ‘Olympus’, and the whole ship was immediately caught in a sea of fire, with yellow light in all directions, sucking in the rest of the main ships that surrounded it, and blowing them up one after another.
In the end, ‘Olympus’ lived out its life within the yellow awn, forming an artificially crafted ‘supernova’ that curled up into a crumbled mass and bid farewell to the cosmic stage.
The entire second line of the Allied defense declared a rout.
The Steel Bullet TDs, the pursuing R-type HKs, and the transport fleet were also engulfed by the ferocious Light Pods. There was chaos and destruction! The light energy flew straight to the outer atmosphere of the moon’s surface, where it was severely attenuated and absorbed by the ionosphere. No significant harm was done to the colonial metropolis.
The once hotly contested airspace was silent, so silent that it was frightening. It was filled with disintegrating metal wreckage.
Razori navigated the steel bullet through the rubble, “Din~ch~! Where are you?” As he watched the devastation on the 3-D screen, he felt a sense of anxiety… The Lunar Base Command Center received a report from the satellite, and immediately assigned someone to analyze the situation. After ten minutes or so, the news came back.
Chairman Formalan sat at the head of the round table and listened cautiously to the war report.
“Mr. Chairman, the discharge in the ionosphere was due to the UCOE’s firing of magnetic pole deflection cannons at us. However, it is clear that it was a neutralized ‘power surge’. There was only a slight effect on our air communications.” The Atmospheric Science Task Force submits the report.
Commissar Loubia nodded, “As far as I know-unfortunately, our mobile warrior ‘Sayna’ has no weapons to counter it yet.”
Madam Chairperson, her face was heavy: “Mr. Chairman, do you mean… that China’s ultimate steel bomb saved the moon?”
“It should be. It is fortunate that it possesses this unknown power, otherwise, I am afraid that countless living beings would not be protected…” Loubia let out a deep breath.
Another colonel female intelligence officer rose, “Chairman, commissioner, members. I have good news for you, the enemy’s second line of defense has been wiped out, and it has just been confirmed that the ‘Olympus’, one of the UCOE’s leading attacking fortresses, has sunk…”
“Great! We should ride this out!” Mrs. Formalan’s confidence grew, “All reserve units prepare to lift off for duty!”
“But…” the female officer mumbled, “there’s bad news…”
“What is it? Tell me!”
“Our Steel Bomb Pilot Razori Leo reported to the center two minutes ago… The Ultimate Steel Bomb TD pilot is missing, his current fate is unknown…”
The chairman of the organizing committee suddenly changed his expression: “Send a search and rescue team and set the coordinates of the search area! If anything should happen to Mr. Dinky, how will this committee answer to the Confederate Special Envoy, Mr. Bilow? Also, please notify Lazori and ask for his support in the search. Also, keep an eye on the UCOE corps, and don’t let up!”
“Yes, my subordinate will do it immediately!” The intelligence officer received the order and retreated to follow the order.
The coordinated search ships with medical personnel lifted off immediately and headed for Zeoron at D425 coordinates, where the direction of the Mobile Soldiers’ displacement was deduced; the colonial forces that were following up the attack were mobilized, breaking through the atmosphere, clearing away the messy remnants of the battle, and attacking the disorganized territories of the Earth Alliance…” “General! This is terrible! The main ship of Olympus has been sunk by the Ultimate Steel Bullet TD!” Adjutant Oleander rushed into the General’s office in a panic, yelling in a loud voice.
The Commander-in-Chief, Mr. Pei Goh, who had been leisurely puffing on his pipe, choked on his own words, “Oleana, are you telling the truth? How could the invincible fortress ‘Olympus’ be…?”
The teenage adjutant gently patted her boss on the back, causing him to stop coughing on his staff, “It’s becoming a foregone conclusion.
Moreover, our second defense network, along with the attacking army we sent to the Moon, was destroyed…”
“Ugh! It’s that Chinese ‘Asura Zeus’ again!” The General sat down in frustration, “The entire UCOE membership will regard it as an enemy!”
The girl continued, “The rest of the situation includes – the Lunar Surface Mobile Fighters have stopped attacking our army, and the Steel Bullet TD is nowhere to be seen. The bad thing is…”
“Say… nothing could surprise me more.”
“The Moon Surface Colony Underground Army has launched a counterattack! Their frontline troops have just passed the original first line of defense…”
The Commander-in-Chief sighed deeply, “We retreat.”
“Reporting sir, you ~said~ ‘retreat’?” She wondered if she’d misheard the instruction.
The corner of Pei Ge’s mouth smiled scornfully: ”It’s come to this point, what can we use to fight with the other side? Relying on the ‘Raya Leaf’ fighters? Now that we have suffered a heavy blow, we just want to ‘stay in the green mountain, not afraid of no wood to burn’.
Don’t try to be a hero!”
“This..! I’ll quickly tell all of you to ‘turn in’!” Oleander retired, turned around and ran to the bridge of the command ship…
Major General Quirrell of the Resistance himself pursued the UCOE hordes with his elite troops, and the sound of it was astounding.
The Vanguard Outpost Squad drastically detected the enemy’s behavior and noticed something strange, “‘Golden Crow Squad’ reports! The Earth alliance seems to be reorganizing its army, all the ships have turned around and seem to be trying to return! Please instruct me, General!”
“Is that so? As the saying goes, ‘no soldier is too deceitful’, and there’s no guarantee that they’ll suddenly turn around and fight again? Lieutenant General Pei Ge is no mediocrity.” The Underground General rested his chin, “Advance the troops as planned, reduce the speed to three-fourths of the original speed, do not rush into the chase! All ships’ turrets are on standby, HK fighters are in their cabins ready for battle, be careful to prevent the enemy’s ‘change of face’!”
Quirrell, upholding the principle of ‘caution above all else’, keeps the enemy under surveillance and informs the ‘Autonomous Preparatory Committee’ of the current situation.
Ms. Fumaran questioned, “The invaders actually withdrew their defenses and moved back to Earth? General Quirrell, you need to be sure of that.”
The Major General smiled softly, “Madam President, this is my duty, you may rest assured.”
He looked up at the bridge’s surveillance screen, and on the radar the cluster of enemy points of light were indeed advancing toward Earth, gradually moving away and no longer posing a threat to the moon’s surface.
“Troops stop marching!” He raised his hand to administer the military order, “The other side has lost hostility, there is no point in pursuing them any further.”
The chairman of the organizing committee nodded, “Very well. General Quirrell, please bring the troops back.
Thank you very much…”
‘Asura Zeus’ tumbled and floated in the endless darkness. The violent shockwave shattered Dinky’s transparent face shield, and he bled from his forehead on the spot. Adding to this, his entire body took on the terrifying gravity intensity of more than twenty G’s, and he suffered multiple bruises and fractures, and the back of his head slammed into the driver’s seat several times.
The Chinese youth is in a deep coma, struggling on the edge of life and death.
The Steelball TD is not doing much better. Sparks and electrical currents were emanating from all over his body, his wrists and knees were bruised, and 56 percent of his feedback loop was damaged, rendering him inoperable.
“The main system has shut down… and the damaged circuits have been suspended… but only the pilot’s life support system is barely functioning…” “Hamish” checked his own condition, “Master, you can’t die… even if my energy is limited, I’ll do my best to protect you… I will do my best to protect you…”
“This is D425 airspace… and it’s drifted far away…” the battle control computer calculated, “To leave the energy for the master’s use, cut to energy-saving mode…”
The motorized warrior finally comes to rest, lying flat in the pitch blackness. Three points of light appear behind it to the left, a rescue team heading this way.
“Found the Steel Bullet TD!”
“Use the tractor light to recover it! I detect faint signs of life within the maneuver, the pilot is still alive! Save lives first!”
The Ultimate Steel Bomb was retrieved into the shuttle’s nacelle. After ‘Hamish’ sends Dinky outside the hull, it runs out of energy and the mobile fighter goes into a shutdown.
The paramedics rescued the dark-haired young man, first scanning his body with their instruments, “He’s badly injured! He has a concussion and must be evacuated immediately!”
“Roger that! We’ll return immediately!” The team leader pressed the button, “Attention Base Command Center, target found…”
A sterile medical bag was wrapped around Dinky, who was covered in wounds. His eyes were closed and he was unconscious. If he was not treated at the emergency room, his life would be in danger…
“Madam President! You mean Dinky he…” ‘Star Confederation’ Special Envoy Bilof was very annoyed and displeased after hearing Mrs. Formalan’s explanation.
“He will be sent to the M71 General Hospital of the Underground Army for treatment later, so please don’t worry.”
On the sidelines, Sina Garuchi and Guan Yunru could not help but burst into tears and their hearts were cut to pieces, their charming bodies trembling slightly as they cried, “How could this happen? I don’t want to..! …” They desperately shook their heads.
“Mrs. Ki! If Ki Tha Tha is really…, where will you find someone exactly like him to return it to me? No~, no~ it’s not possible~! I can’t accept it~!” The alien beauty cried out.
Yunru sobbed, “Mr. Chairman! Please allow us to visit Mr. Dinh… please! I can’t live without him! I don’t want to lose him…”
The Confederate envoy inclined his head and whispered, “Silna, Yunru, I understand that you are extremely sad.
But the other party is the highest authority in the Moonwatch Colony, and she doesn’t necessarily have to grant your request. Isn’t that right?”
“Dad, that said, but since Ki is done helping them, the colony is obligated to be responsible for his personal safety which.” The envoy’s daughter protested.
The Chinese maiden chimed in, “Sina’s right! Once the three major cities on the Moon’s surface have been saved, can they not take care of the Steel Bullet pilots who are desperately trying to protect them?”
Bilov was too poor to defend himself.
“I understand. Mr. Special Envoy, the people of my three colonial cities are not ungrateful people. My preparatory committee will certainly send a special car to your office later to take you and the two ladies to M71 General Hospital to visit the seriously injured Mr. Dinky.” Chairman Formalan on the screen pondered for a long time and finally broke the silence.
Sina and Yun Tong thanked her in the same voice: “Madam, we are grateful for your kindness!” They shed more than a few tears.
The chairman of the organizing committee sighed softly in secret, ‘These two beautiful girls are Dora’s age, they feel like my own daughters, I can’t bear to turn them away…’
She said a number of comforting words, hoping to soothe the alien girls’ grief a little.
As soon as the telegram was cut off, the envoy’s daughter and the Chinese girl rushed back to their room to take care of the necessities of the injured, weeping and thinking of the young man who was struggling with the grim reaper.
The alien envoy sat on a swivel chair and gazed up at the ceiling, ‘O Earth! If you are conscious, you should open your eyes and show compassion to the child who has fought tirelessly for you and give him the strength to live! He is the only one who can stop the barbaric behavior of human beings and bring about complete peace. Isn’t peace what you have wanted for billions of years? I…’
He stands up and extinguishes the lights in the room. The door to the air-pressurized room opens, and Bilalov’s figure gradually walks away, leaving the room full of solitude. …
