The silent steel giant once again stood in the wilderness ravaged by gunfire.
On the shield held in his left hand, a piece of red cloth was fluttering in the wind.
"Duel?"
After Lei Mingkai looked at the red cloth fluttering in the wind, he turned back to look at Austrian who was disbanding the first team and trying to take over the CGS, but was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Graz.
Add them.
"Galalhorn? Is he really here?"
Olga took the telescope from Takaki and looked at Graz who slowly landed at the right distance.
"Olga, what does that piece of red cloth mean?"
Olga frowned and touched the back of her head, not knowing how to answer for a while.
"That's what a duel means. The pilot of this Graze seems to want to duel with someone among us."
Lei Mingkai moved his eyes and saw a clue from the flying red cloth.
The actions of this Graze are not unexpected, but its target does not seem to be CGS, or one of Olga and others.
In the slightly cool breeze, Cronk walked out of the cockpit and stood next to Glaze's head monitor.
At this moment, he looked along the wilderness, towards the base where their actual combat force of Gallarhorn suffered a disastrous defeat, and towards the group of figures gathered around the gate of CGS.
Judging from the sparse silhouettes of people, this civilian armed base indeed employs a lot of young soldiers.
In other words, the speculation that Cronk and Ain mentioned before is correct.
This made Cronk's right hand holding the loudspeaker tighten slightly.
Facing the increasingly biting cold wind, Cronk moved his eyes away from the door of CGS and fell on the severed arm that was still stuck in the wilderness and fell to the ground from the Graze driven by Ain.
The sword blade, then suddenly raised his gaze and looked at the CGS gate again.
"I am Cronk Chant, a member of the Gallarhorn Combat Force! I hope to have a one-on-one duel with the owner of this blade!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes immediately turned to the figure standing in front of the gate.
Everyone who participated in and witnessed that battle knew that the sword did not come from anyone in CGS, but from Lei Mingkai.
"It's really nerve-wracking! I didn't expect that this guy's target would be me."
Lei Mingkai spread his hands and said helplessly.
While speaking, he also glanced at Mikazuki, who had his hands in his pockets and looked at all of this with his trademark paralyzed expression.
Now that Mikazuki has not been able to successfully sit on Barbatos, it seems that someone is indeed needed to serve as a target.
What surprised Lei Mingkai was that Cronk came to the door all of a sudden.
At this time, the wind once again carried Cronk's voice to everyone's ears.
"The CGS, which only has mobile engineers, is no match for Gallarhorn's actual combat troops. However, with this understanding, you defeated our Gallarhorn Mars branch! The person who can allow you to achieve such an amazing record,
I'm afraid it's the person behind the scenes who is directing all this."
Cronk paused, and his eyes moved around the gate of CGS, as if he wanted to find the person he thought was behind the scenes among the sparse figures.
Suddenly, the cold eyes of the cold light emitted by the blade were paired with Klanck.
"That ... That's!?"
At this moment, Clanck felt a hint of cold, but also felt a trace of excitement.
He didn't know what it was for.
But he knew that today's affairs may have results.
Holding the right hand of the walkie -talkie again.
"This is a one -on -one duel! If I win, you will definitely surrender Gudilia Lanna Bernstein and the Graz.
Everything will be handed in to me! You, CGS and Gallahn are no longer fooled! "
"Surprove Miss?"
Biscate was surprised.
"I just said !! Garlar Hornes came for Guedi Lamina Burnstein !!"
Totor, lying on the motor worker, waved his right hand again and again, trying to attract Olga's attention.
"Shut your mouth! Clown!"
Unexpectedly, Todo's call Gang said, and a huge pressure suddenly pressed it on the cold armor of the motor worker.
"you!!"
"stop!"
The exclaiming sounded, a deep cold and the sharp claws occupied the thinking, and the vision.
"Shut up for me! I don't know the clown!"
Lei Mingkai's voice sounded again, so that the white lion could only watch the white lion and the people who pressed the motor worker to look at him again.
"Olga. Will you promise?"
Lei Mingkai raised his fingers and pointed to Graz with a red cloth.
"Although that guy is a member of the actual combat force of Gallar Horn, he cannot make any decisions. Especially on the issue of the sensitive character about Gudilia Lamona Bernestein."
"About me?"
Gudilia stunned and pointed at herself.
"Doesn't he say that as long as I hand it out, the people here will be fine? Is he going to regret it afterwards?"
The pilot who drove the Greg is the commander of the battle. Therefore, now the person who claims to be Clanck Chart is probably just to clean up the endgame. "
Laks explained things and speculation as simply as much as possible to Gudilia, and everyone knew it.
"In addition, you may not know that, outside the Mars circle, a cruiser from the earth and the headquarters from the Gallahlhon headquarters is approaching here. The task of this cruiser is for the Callal Hotan Mars branch over the years.
Operation and start supervision affairs. "
After a breath, Laks stared at Gudilia and asked.
"So, you must understand, right?"
"The supervisor from the Earth Headquarters? Also, that is to say, the Mars branch is trying to bury some facts. Among these facts, I, Gudilia Lana Bernestan is the biggest hidden danger? !!"
Gudilia was very smart, and quickly understood his situation under the lift of Laks.
Even if Olga and others hand over themselves, people at the base will still face the ending of being killed.
Therefore, in this duel, the promise made by Cronk Chant was nothing more than a mirror image.
"Understood? Then, the next step is my job."
Looking at Gudelia's face of realization, Lei Mingkai also knew that it was time for him to appear.
"Your Excellency Lei Mingkai! What are you doing? The other party is coming for our CGS!!"
As soon as Olga saw Lei Mingkai lift his steps and walk out of the CGS gate, she quickly shouted.
Lei Mingkai stopped, looked back at Olga, and smiled.
"At CGS? Haha. Olga, don't be too arrogant! The person appointed by Cronk Chant is me, not you!"
"Yes, but are you going to go there like this? At least you have to drive a mobile engineer..."
Olga opened her mouth, and finally just said this proposal that even he himself could not believe.
"TK-53? Haha. Don't underestimate me. Olga!"
Lei Mingkai laughed a few times.
"Don't look at me like this, I still have partners I can rely on!"
The next second, in full view of everyone, Lei Mingkai raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
The moment the loud sound resounded through the CGS gate, a burst of thunder sounded in the sky.
"Boom!"
In an instant, a brilliant afterimage fell from the sky and landed directly behind the pure white sword blade.
"Then...that's MS?!!"
The blue and black body, the mighty and tall body, and the huge light wings that shine with brilliant colors...
This is the true appearance of the mobile suit that suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, in front of Graze's eyes.
Its appearance not only shocked Cronk, but also plunged Olga and others into deathly silence.
"Okay! Now, all the chess pieces are in place! Can the duel begin?"
In a wilderness littered with bomb craters and dotted with debris, two steel giants built with top human technology faced each other a hundred meters apart.
The cold wind that gradually stirred up the mud and dust in the wilderness involuntarily became violent every time it passed around the two steel giants.
In this increasingly manic wind, there is the low roar of the reactor gradually increasing its output and entering actual combat mode.
Cronk's eyes were extremely solemn.
He had never seen the MS in front of him, and even in the database of Gallallhorn's MS that he had come into contact with, there had never been such a... strange, yet somehow sacred machine.
That steel body is completely different from the mobile suit design concept led by Gjalalhorn.
The pair of colorful and gorgeous light wings were something that Gallallhorn's designers had never encountered or even imagined.
"What is the origin of this aircraft?"
Holding the joystick that had long become a part of his body, Cronk took a deep breath and stared at the machine on the screen pulling out the pure white sword blade inserted in this wilderness.
"Gallarhorn Mars Branch Combat Force, Cronk Chant!"
familiar scenes,
familiar tone,
Lei Mingkai was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed heartily.
"What a nostalgic scene! I haven't seen such a scene in how many years!"
Lei Mingkai's words made Cronk frown.
Isn't it natural to state your name before a duel?
"No! I'm sorry! It's just a sentiment! Cronk Chant! For me, such a formal duel was a long time ago!"
Under Lei Mingkai's clear voice, two sounds of the locking mechanism opening followed closely.
It was actually another pure white sword blade and the sound of the shield falling to the ground.
"Are you, are you insulting me?!"
Cronk looked at the sword and shield that were splashing with mud and dust, and let out a low roar.
"No! This guy's name is Freedom Gundam! With its performance and this blade, it's enough to duel with you! Cronk Chant!"
The pure white sword blade held by the Freedom Gundam in his right hand cut through the sky, causing bursts of wind and thunder. It was not until the moment when the Freedom Gundam was raised in front of him that Kronk understood Lei Mingkai, and even the Freedom Gundam's actions.
Behavior.
That,
It was a knight's highest ceremonial salute to his opponent.
"Who...are you?"
so weird,
But there is some ancient etiquette that reminds Cronk of the ancient times before the Calamity War.
"According to legend, before the Calamity War, people mostly settled most of their disputes through duels. Isn't this also the idea you proposed? Cronk Chant."
under the sun,
Under those dazzling wings of light, the Freedom Gundam was slightly suspended from the ground, with its sword raised in both hands, which actually gave Kronk the illusion that he was looking at the Holy Knight mentioned in the myth.
"Haha. Is that so? Thank you so much!!"
"Maybe a little arrogant! But this is the real me! The Guardian Knight of the Holy Empress of Britannia Empire, Reming Kai!"
"Come on!"
The wind suddenly blew up.
The two steel giants launched an offensive on the spot, and the strong winds set off swept across the entire place, kicking up bursts of smoke and dust.
However,
The fierce battle sound like thunder rolling in Olga's and others' imagination did not come.
Because at the moment when the strong wind swept through, the result of the duel had already been determined.
The pure white sword blade was like lightning, instantly piercing Graze's cockpit.
Looking at the pure white sword blade that pierced his chest, but stopped the moment it penetrated his body, Kronk raised his head with difficulty and looked at the screen in front of him - but he could not see the pure white sword blade from his eyes.
The moment it pierced the cockpit, nothing could be seen on the destroyed screen.
"Ahem...original...that's it!!"
The dissatisfaction with the Liberty Gundam's confusion over the other blade and shield having just been touched has long since dissipated.
The reason why the other party did this was not to insult him, but because a sword blade was enough to kill him.
"Holy... Brittania... Empire? Is there such a country... on earth?"
Operations at the Yahap Reactor ceased.
Just as the vitality of its owner, Cronk Chant, had ceased, he fell into deathly silence.
The only difference is that except for the cockpit being punctured, this Graze has no other damage. The Graze only needs some treatment before it can continue to be put into use.
The pure white sword blade cut through the sky, scattering the trace of bright red wrapped around the sword tip.
The pair of dazzling and gorgeous light wings gradually folded in, and the moment the Freedom Gundam stood on the ground again, the teenagers let out a cry that resounded through the sky.
There is no doubt that the Freedom Gundam that instantly defeated Graze has formed an unparalleled powerful image in the hearts of the CGS teenagers.
"What does the name Olga Tekkadan mean?"
"Tekkadan? Yes! That's a good name! Your Excellency Lei Mingkai."
