Chapter 583 Satellite Falls
“………There is such a thing.”
Hearing the telepathic report from Odell, Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes.
“Yes, Miss Shizuka hopes that the master can give some advice.”
“Well……Speaking of which, that guy’s personality is indeed……I haven’t thought about this.”
Duanmu Huai touched his chin. Indeed, he found that Ecot was quite comprehensive in commanding operations, but this was different from the perfectionist’s idea of “wanting to be as perfect as possible”. Ecot did this probably to avoid any problems in any place that would cause him to be scolded.
Ah, how to say it, he is so talented, but he is so timid.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
"Hey? Me, me?"
"Yes, you can communicate with me telepathically, and you can contact me quickly, right? Then I will appoint you as Ecot's adjutant. When Ecot is not here, you will be responsible for helping to handle some affairs. You have been with me for a long time, and you should understand the principles and procedures of the Tribunal. I don't think I need to emphasize this aspect again."
"Okay, I understand, Master... Then do I need to report to you about the situation of Miss Ecot?"
"If she asks you to report, then report. If she doesn't ask, then don't report. Otherwise, it will feel like a military supervisor. The little girl is under a lot of pressure. It will be more troublesome if it is more complicated."
"I understand... Then, Master, what are you doing now?"
"Me........."
Hearing Odell's question, Duanmu Huai turned his head and silently looked at the cold ice and snow outside the window.
"We are taking action to save the world."
That's right. Now Duanmu Huai and others are no longer on the original green planet, but on the Earth of this galaxy. This is naturally due to the ubiquitous dimensional earthquake.
Before, the Minerva was attacked by a group of unknown enemies who looked like giant magic puppets. After repelling these enemies, a dimensional earthquake suddenly broke out at the location of the battleship, and then everyone's eyes went black, and the next second they came to Siberia with ice and snow.
Of course, this is not the problem. The problem is that after arriving in Siberia, Captain Talia of Minerva received a call from PLANT. Talia reported the situation, but heard a shocking thing from the other party—the destroyed artificial colony satellite "Junius 7" broke away from the rubble belt and is currently moving towards the Earth's gravity circle.
It can be imagined that when this satellite hits the Earth directly, it will bring a crisis no less than the extinction of dinosaurs.
Well, everyone was shocked by this, but Duanmu Huai was very calm.
In this galaxy, destroying satellites is commonplace, and it doesn't matter if it happens again.
The order Captain Talia received was for them to immediately stop the satellite from falling to the earth and completely disintegrate the satellite.
But the Minerva was not in a good situation, because they were ZAFT warships, and they were naturally wanted by the Federation in the Earth Sphere, which meant that the Minerva had to avoid the pursuit of the Federation while destroying the colony satellite. After all, they were the only ones in the Earth Sphere at the moment, and it would be too difficult to send people from other galaxies.
But... the atmosphere at the moment didn't seem to be very good.
Duanmu Huai stood in the preparation room with interest, looking at the two parties staring at each other. One of them was the pilots on the Minerva, and the other was a blonde woman in a white uniform. She came up when she learned about the colony satellite. According to the introduction, the blonde woman was Cagalli Yura Asha, the current representative of Orb.
Orb is a neutral country on Earth in this galaxy, so even if the Minerva is being hunted by the Federation, it has nothing to do with Orb. She also sent the supplies that Minerva needs.
Logically speaking, such a distinguished guest should be treated well, but...
Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders and looked at the other side, or rather, the main reason for such an embarrassing situation was one of the pilots in Minerva, Zhen Fei Niao.
He seemed to hate Cagalli very much, so even in this occasion, he did not hide his disgust. And Cagalli looked speechless, which made everyone else present very embarrassed.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Duanmu Huai, and their Tribunal just needs to eat melons on the side.
It would be more interesting if they fought.
Melon eaters, melon eaters.
"I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen to that satellite. What's going on? Isn't it said that the orbit of that satellite will be stable for more than 100 years?"
At this moment, perhaps to break the awkward atmosphere, the blue-haired man next to Cagalli spoke.
Hearing the blue-haired man's question, Captain Talia's adjutant shook his head.
"It's currently under investigation. Maybe it was caused by a meteorite impact..."
"Or it was caused by humans."
But before the adjutant could finish his words, his pantyhose fell off beside him - no, Captain Cuvatro interrupted him.
"Generally speaking, with a colony satellite as large as this, it is difficult for a meteorite to cause it to deviate from its orbit, not to mention that the other party obviously hit the earth, which is unlikely to be a coincidence. Although it is a huge colony satellite, it can be pushed forward if a drive is installed."
Hearing this, Duanmuhuai glanced at Captain Cuvatoro.
You know very well, do you have a criminal record?
"Then, who is it?"
"It's too early to say that."
Captain Thalia shook her head, but after hearing this, Cagalli on the other side couldn't help it.
"If you let that thing fall, Orb... No, what will happen to the earth?!"
Facing Cagalli's question, Camus, another pilot on Minerva's side, answered.
"In addition to the direct impact, the secondary disasters caused are probably unimaginable. If it falls in the sea, an unimaginable tsunami may erupt. If it falls on land..."
Having said this, Camus also shook his head.
After all, it was not a small meteorite, but a huge man-made colonial satellite.
"How could it be...in that case, our world..."
"It's so annoying."
However, at this moment, Zhen Asuka spoke coldly, interrupting Cagalli's words.
"It's going to be noisy over there, can't you just shut up?"
"Ugh..."
Cagalli gritted her teeth when she heard Asuka's complaints.
At this moment, Duanmu Huai finally spoke.
"If you don't have any ideas, then I have a suggestion."
"Your Majesty the Inquisitor?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, everyone raised their heads and looked at him. After all, Duanmu Huai and others had been on the Minerva for some time, and everyone was relatively familiar with them. Among them, the lively An was the most familiar with everyone, and also allowed many people to see the magic of Manalia - it must be said that they were very curious and full of interest in these visitors to the Tribunal.
"Is there any way you can solve this problem?"
"Yes, just use this."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and took out a forearm-sized object that looked like a cannonball from behind.
What is this stuff? Where did he put it?
Seeing this scene, everyone was confused, and some couldn't help but curiously turned their heads and looked behind Duanmu Huai.
But of course I saw nothing.
"This is……………?"
"The seismic bomb is a special weapon of the Tribunal. It can erupt a large amount of shock waves in an instant, completely shattering the entire battlefield. As long as this thing is installed in the right position and detonated, the entire colonial satellite will be destroyed immediately. How about turning it into dust? "
"Is it so powerful?"
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, everyone subconsciously focused on the cannonball in Duanmuhuai's hand - it seemed to be smaller than ordinary cannonballs?
"What? You want to try?"
"if you can……………"
"No problem, I've prepared a lot anyway."
"………………"
Where did you put them all? ?
"Then let's make preparations. First, we will investigate Julius 7. If there are no problems, we will adopt the plan of the Inquisitor."
Captain Thalia also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she actually didn't have a particularly good solution. Now that she heard that Duanmu Huai had a solution, she... could only believe it.
After the battle plan was made, the atmosphere among everyone became more relaxed. When Captain Thalia went to make preparations, others stared at the cannonball in Duanmuhuai's hand and started talking about it.
"Can it really crush Junius 7?"
"But, there are still many bodies of the deceased up there..."
"But if it really falls, the earth will be destroyed. In that case, nothing will be left."
"Huh? Does that mean the earth will be destroyed if you're not careful?"
"Yes, but there's nothing we can do about it, right? There's nothing we can do about it...and maybe it's a good thing for our PLANT."
"………………!"
Hearing everyone's chatting, Cagalli couldn't help clenching her fists and staring at them.
"It's a shame that you can say such things! Is it something that can't be helped? Is it a good thing? Do you know how many people on earth will die in this way?! Do you really understand?!"
"………………………sorry………"
With Cagalli's roar, everyone who was chatting was speechless for a while.
Cagalli, on the other hand, continued to glare at them.
"Sure enough, do you ZAFT still think that way? You have obviously fought so many wars! I thought you would have changed somewhat...!"
"Stop it, Cagalli!"
At this time, the blue-haired man also came over and held Cagalli's shoulders.
However, at this time, Asuka came out again and stared at Cagalli.
"Yula and the others didn't mean what they said, it was just a joke. Don't you even understand this little thing?"
"What did you say?!"
Hearing Ma Asuka's answer, Cagalli clenched her fists, and Ma Asuka's companions hurriedly grabbed him.
"Asuka, be careful with your words."
"Ah, by the way, this man is very noble. He is a representative of Orb. He is a great person."
But Asuka obviously didn't mean to stop there. He stared at Cagalli with a sinister expression. Seeing this scene, the blue-haired man who had been protecting Cagalli also came over.
"That's it, Ma Asuka. If you make rude remarks to Orb's representatives again, I can't just sit idly by. I heard that you are also from Orb. Is there any reason? If it is because If you do this for any silly reason, then I will have to deal with it."
"What? Boring reason?"
Hearing this, Asuka's eyes suddenly turned red and he clenched his fists. If his companion hadn't caught him in a hurry, he would have pounced and beat the blue-haired man.
"How dare you say it's a boring reason!? My family was killed by Ashar!"
"Why?"
Hearing this, Cagalli suddenly froze, while Zhen Asuka stared at her.
"I have always believed in the country and your ideals, but in the end, I was still killed by you! So, I will never believe you! Let alone the country Orb! You are all a bunch of liars! My family is dead? And what about you? Are you still arrogantly pretending to be Orb’s representative?”
"………………"
"You talk about implementing Orb's justice, and then being invaded by the Union Army... At that time, did you ever think that anyone would be killed because of what you said?! You guys who don't know anything, don't talk like you know everything. Like I understand!”
After saying this, Zhen Asuka glared at Cagalli fiercely, turned around and left. On the other side, Cagalli stood there blankly, unable to say a word. Then he lowered his head, turned around and left the room.
"I think I heard something interesting..."
Duanmuhuai poked Lumière next to him.
"Look into it?"
"……………is it necessary?"
"I'm just bored. Do you dare to say that you have no interest at all?"
"………………I understand, give me some time."
It seems that eating melons is indeed the nature of people all over the world.
Facts have proved that Lumière's melon-eating soul is no less good than Duanmuhuai's. It only took her just two minutes to figure out the whole story.
"The specific reason is this. This world used to be a hostile war between the Earth United Nations and PLANT's space colonial forces, while Orb was a neutral country... Their slogan was not to invade other countries, not to allow other countries to invade, and not to intervene in the disputes of other countries. "
"Then what?"
"Uh...according to intelligence investigations, Orb has actually been jointly developing new mechas with the Earth Federation on neutral satellites."
"Haha, neutrals who are incompetent are just helpless people."
Duanmuhuai snorted coldly.
"If that's the case, how could Orb be invaded by the United Earth?"
"According to the data, the United Earth wanted to borrow Orb's mass launcher, but Orb refused. Therefore, the United Earth finally launched a war against Orb. Orb fell and finally chose to self-destruct."
"The ultimate fate of those who sit on the fence."
Duanmu Huai couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. The incompetent neutrals are like this. In Duanmuhuai's opinion, in the final analysis, it was Orb who secretly jointly developed mechas with the Earth, which caused the Earth Alliance to have thoughts about Orb.
The logic is very simple. If you are truly neutral, you will not help anyone if you have the ability. If you flirt with me in private and play hard to get, it will definitely make me think that you have thoughts about me.
So the Earth United came to the door and wanted to take care of Orb's little wife.
What the United Earth didn't expect was that Orb was a bitch and built a memorial arch, with a look like "You're talking nonsense, I'm not, I'm very pure."
So I slapped the United Earth Alliance in the face, you bitch, you are so shameless, I will slap you to death.
According to Lumière's investigation, Zhen Asuka is an Orb. It is obvious that his family should have died during the fall of Orb. It's no wonder that Zhen Asuka doesn't like Orb...
But in the final analysis, it's not that Orb lacks strength. If it were the Inquisition, I would say neutral is neutral and help whoever you want to help. If you are not convinced, stick your head over and I will add a DEBUFF to you and then ask you if you are convinced.
This is called neutrality.
Aubuna is called a weed on the wall, but he still insists on flaunting himself as a lily.
"Okay, let's finish eating and get ready to work."
In the final analysis, this is a personal dispute. Duanmu Huai and others have eaten the melon, watched the show, and understood the ins and outs. They are satisfied and it is time to prepare to do their own things.
After all, they weren't here to watch a fight.
