OO Pioneer-11

However, just to be safe.

Veda's Tieria had already projected a miniature version of himself into Setsuna's cockpit.

He was prepared to bypass their transfer station if Tieria and Regene couldn't make it in time, and remotely assist Setsuna with information distribution during conversations.

Although this meant two fewer channels, the effect might be slightly slower. But it was still sufficient, as it was how the distribution had been done originally.

It was just that Setsuna would have to deal with a bit more trouble.

"Damn it, is this all I can do?"

Just as Tieria thought he was powerless, and he and Regene were about to be completely enveloped by a swarm of small ELS, He said to Regene with unconcealed frustration, "Regene, I'll break open an opening in a moment, the rest is up to you!"

"Huh? What are you going to do?"

"My body... isn't important. I'm just returning to Veda anyway."

Regene, who was still firing, was bewildered by the sudden communication, but upon hearing Tieria mention returning to Veda, she understood his intention.

She frantically tried to dissuade him, "Don't do anything foolish, Tieria!"

"No need to say more, go! Regene, Setsuna... I'm leaving him to you..."

"Yo, Tieria, missed me?"

Just as Tieria was about to blast a path open through self-destruction, at least so Regene could keep up with Setsuna and assist with the conversation.

Thor appeared on the battlefield, piloting the dark gray MA, Gundam Haliel, which was modified from the Gundam Angel's design.

Using the continuous beam attack from the two GN Particle Cannons on its back, he created an opening in the encirclement from one side, then immediately switched to MS mode.

He quickly deployed the two pairs of eyes on his face, entering the six-eyed "Maruda System Mode," or rather, Wind God Mode.

Then, holding a GN Particle Cannon in each hand, he fired two GN Cannon Beams, attacking in a slight upward spiral to break through the ELS swarm that was about to surround them.

"Thor!? You finally decided to show up, you rascal?"

"Woohoo, you came just in time!"

"Ah, I'm back!"

After looking at Thor on the monitor screen with disbelief, Tieria and Regene both showed expressions of tears of joy.

Just a few minutes earlier.

Thor piloted the Ptolemaios 2 Chasing Light through a space-time tunnel, returning to the vicinity of Jupiter's orbit where he had previously departed.

"So this is the alien metal species... ELS?"

"It's so huge!"

"Incredible!"

Meanwhile, Aeolia and the Celestial Being elders on the bridge looked on with disbelief and shock, watching the ELS swarm fighting the Earth forces in Mars orbit.

They saw the New World Federal Government forces and Celestial Being organization in a difficult situation.

Thor turned and said to the only two combat personnel on the bridge, Fillete's parents, the couple Lui and Marlene, "Lui, Marlene, I'm leaving the Chasing Light and everyone to you. I'm going ahead."

"Yes, don't worry, we'll handle things here."

"Yes, we'll be careful."

After nodding to them.

Thor directly used the evolved ultimate DG Cells, which were the ELS.DG Cells that had already assimilated the ELS. Without even going to the hangar, he turned the top of the bridge into a silver metallic fluid and entered outer space without any obstruction.

Then, Thor summoned a portion of the metallic fluid from the storage bay to his side, using the evolved ELS.DG Cells for high-speed nano-mechanical assembly.

In an instant, it transformed into Gundam Haliel, a super-high-speed MA form identical to the Gundam Angel.

And the moment it activated the Trans-Am System, it streaked across space like a meteor, charging towards the battlefield.

At the same time.

The Ptolemaios 2 Kai was also in trouble. Several parts of its hull showed signs of assimilation and erosion by ELS fragments, and many weapons were unusable.

However, it continued to attack relentlessly, utilizing its remaining GN Particle Cannons and missile launchers.

Tens of thousands of GN missiles also flew towards the ELS swarm.

But this was tough for Ian inside the ship.

He was constantly busy using the high-voltage plasma defense system to isolate the assimilated and eroded areas of the hull.

He also had to coordinate with Linda, commanding a large group of Haros to continuously deliver GN missiles to the still-operational missile launchers.

And on the bridge.

Mileina watched Setsuna in the distance. Even with support from Graham and the Solar Squad, he still hadn't managed to break through to the ELS Mother-Child Body.

"Fillete, Mileina, you two need to evacuate quickly. The Ptolemaios is already..."

"No~! I'm staying too, with everyone!"

"Me too. Mom and Dad are on the Ptolemaios, so I'm not leaving."

"Fillete-chan, Mileina-chan, please be good and listen..."

"Chris, I'm not a child anymore. I don't want to experience losing you all again. Even if we die, we'll die together!"

"Yeah, me too. Even if we die, we'll be together with everyone!"

"You two..."

Fillete and Mileina flatly refused Mileina's sudden request for evacuation. Even Christina, who was usually like an older sister to them, found her words were no longer effective.

Seeing the serious expressions on Fillete and Mileina's faces, Mileina knew she couldn't persuade them.

With a helpless sigh, Mileina shook her head and gave the order to push forward.

"Alright, everyone, listen up. Ptolemaios, full firepower. Any weapons still operational, fire them all. We're going to force a breakthrough towards Setsuna.

If necessary... you can self-destruct to create an opening for Setsuna and the others!"

"Understood~!"

Hearing their unified response and seeing their determined faces, Mileina's heart ached. With deep emotion, she apologized to everyone, "I'm sorry, I've dragged you all into this abyss..."

"What are you talking about, Mileina? We're all here voluntarily. Ever since we became Celestial Beings, we've already cast aside our fear of death."

"Yeah, Chris is right. I feel the same. Our sacrifice is worth it for the future of humanity."

"Mhm, now that's what I call a good man."

Richterdal still had that sycophantic air as he fawned over Christina. However, Christina finally responded to him, making him incredibly excited.

Meanwhile, Laser, who had just finished witnessing their display of affection, shook his head helplessly before seriously taking the helm.

"Everyone, hold on tight, we're going to charge..."

"Everyone, I'm back!"

But before he could fully accelerate, Thor's voice reached their ears.
