Frey, who was full of hatred and out of control, was quickly taken away by the soldiers and held in solitary confinement.
Although she stole an officer's gun and tried to kill Lacuss·Clyne.
Normally, they should be sent to a small dark room for confinement until they reach a court where they are handed over to the judicial authorities for Trial, and finally sent to prison to serve their sentences according to the judge's decision.
But on Archangel, no one was too harsh on the girl who had just witnessed her father being killed.
Because most of the Naturals officers and soldiers present, almost every one of them, have strong hostility and even hatred towards the ZAFT Army and Coordinators, and are very sympathetic to the tragic experience of Frey.
Unless there are irreversible consequences, turning a blind eye will pass.
After all, double standards are part of human nature.
After the brief chaos, everything finally returned to normal.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Lacuss always felt that the people around him, especially the Earth Alliance soldiers who had just walked out of the escape cabin, looked at him in a terrifying way. He couldn't help but tremble, lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Do they hate me?"
"Ah! That's right!" Allen replied in the affirmative without thinking.
At this moment, he didn't even need to feel everyone's thoughts, he could sense the terrifying atmosphere that couldn't be described in words.
Obviously, these soldiers turned the sadness and anger in their hearts into hatred, and vented it overwhelmingly towards the pink-haired girl next to them.
That naked and undisguised malice would definitely be enough to scare most normal teenagers of sixteen or seventeen years old out of their wits.
"Why? I am obviously not a soldier, and I have never joined the ZAFT Army team, nor have I killed anyone." Lacuss frowned subconsciously, his tone full of doubts and confusion.
"You can't expect everyone to stay sane. Many times, what people want is just a channel to vent. They don't care about right or wrong, or whether you are one of the ZAFT Army or whether you have killed Earth Alliance soldiers. Just know that you are a Coordinators and your father is the speaker of P. L. A. N. T Supreme Council. That is enough!"
After that, Allen closed the canopy, started the engine of the maintenance spacecraft, and swooped into the dark universe with the help of the electromagnetic ejection device.
"So... am I being angered?" Lacuss had a look of decline on his face.
You don't need to ask to know that this is definitely a huge blow to her who is used to being warmly welcomed wherever she goes.
Allen shrugged his shoulders indifferently and comforted, "Don't take it to heart. Although you are very cute and beautiful, your personality is quite gentle and reasonable, and the songs you sing are very nice, but after all, it is not about money, and you cannot be liked by everyone."
Hearing this, Lacuss was immediately amused, blinked his big eyes and asked, "Is this a compliment?"
"I think we should forget it! Since the birth of human civilization, no great man has been able to be loved by 99% of the people in the world like Qian." Allen said while adjusting the course and heading towards the designated coordinates.
"So, you accepted Earth Alliance's employment to fight ZAFT Army for money?"
Lacuss At this moment, for some reason, he suddenly became interested in talking, and he looked curious to find out what was going on in the head of the young man next to him.
"What do you think?"
Allen did not answer this question directly, but instead left a meaningful smile.
Just as the two of them were asking and answering questions, the small maintenance ship finally arrived at its destination.
Allen didn't stop for even a second, quickly opened the cockpit, and lifted Lacuss out of the seat like a princess.
Similarly, the maintenance ship coming to greet it from the opposite side also opened its cockpit cover, revealing a young man wearing a red space suit.
"Athrun?!"
Lacuss, who saw the face of the visitor clearly, called out the name of "fiancé" with a look of surprise.
"Are you okay? Those Earth Alliance soldiers didn't torture or abuse you, right?" Athrun asked in a concerned tone.
Lacuss smiled and shook his head, "No. Apart from being locked in the room and not allowed to go out, they didn't do anything to me."
Obviously, she deliberately concealed the fact that she was almost shot to death by Frey before leaving.
Athrun breathed a sigh of relief immediately after hearing this, "Huh - that's good. Let's go, let me take you home. Your Excellency the Speaker probably can't wait to see his beloved daughter."
"Go on!"
Without saying a word, Allen pushed Lacuss, who was wearing a spacesuit, forward.
In an instant, the two inflated balloons staggered into the cockpit of the ZAFT maintenance ship, and were firmly caught by Athrun.
At this point, both sides have finally exchanged all the hostages.
Just when Allen was about to turn around and leave, Athrun suddenly shouted from behind, "Hey! You are the pilot of that mysterious machine and the battle commander of Archangel just now, right?"
"Huh?" Allen raised his head reluctantly, looked into the other person's eyes, and nodded with a smile. "Yes! It's me. Do you have anything to say?"
"I don't understand! Why is such an outstanding Coordinators like you unwilling to help your compatriots, but instead joining the enemy camp whose hands are stained with the blood of your compatriots? What exactly are you doing?" Athrun asked loudly and excitedly.
In fact, this problem has been bothering him since the disintegration of Heliopolis.
"Are you... still brooding over the Bloody Valentine incident and your mother's death?" Allen suddenly asked without warning.
This question instantly broke Athrun's guard, and his emotions began to fluctuate violently. "Do you think something like this can be let go of easily?"
"No! What I mean is that you, who have not yet come out of narrow nationalism and populism inspired by people with ulterior motives, are not qualified to discuss this with me for the time being. Of course, if one day you discover the problem and are confused about what you have done in the past, you can consider talking to Lacuss alone. In my opinion, she is much calmer and more mature than you, and she is also much more sensible."
As the last word blurted out, Allen ignored Athrun's reaction and directly closed the canopy and turned around to return.
Because in his eyes, whether it was Kira or Athrun, the fate of the two male protagonists in the original plot was quite tragic.
Needless to say, the former was first forcibly pulled onto the ship, and then morally kidnapped. He had to fly Strike to attack again and again, and did countless things against his own subjective will.
Later, he was seduced by Frey and became a complete revenge tool.
Until he completely turned against his former childhood friend and even almost died.
The latter didn't fare much better either. First he witnessed his mother's death in the tragedy of Bloody Valentine, and then he was repeatedly used by his biological father and Law Lu Cruze.
To make matters worse, fiancée Lacuss was poached by her estranged friend in the end, and a green prairie grew above her head.
If he hadn't ended up with Cagalli by accident, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been alone for the rest of his life.
Of course, the fate of Kira has now changed due to the emergence of Allen.
If nothing else goes wrong, after arriving at Moon base, this young man will leave Archangel and return to the neutral country Orb as a civilian. There should be no chance of turning against his friends.
Watching the small maintenance ship Allen go away, Athrun finally recovered from the shock and asked in an uncertain tone, "Lacuss, what did he say to you during this time?"
The girl with long pink hair replied with a serious expression, "A lot! Mainly about the fundamental contradiction between Naturals and Coordinators, and how this battlefield will end. Mr. Allen is a very wise man, and he has seen through the essence behind the chaotic appearance. Although I don't know why he joined Earth Alliance, I believe that he is not our enemy."
"Krao Lu Captain Rau Le Creuset believes that he will be the biggest enemy ZAFT Army will face in the future. Forget it, it doesn't make any sense to say this now. Let's return to the flagship first."
Athrun threw away all the messy thoughts in his mind and drove the maintenance ship to make a 180-degree turn.
As Allen returned to Archangel safely, Captain Murrue, who was worried about the long night and many dreams, immediately ordered the main engine to start and headed towards Moon base at full speed.
She didn't believe the promise given by Law Lu Cruze at all, she just wanted to join Eighth Fleet as soon as possible.
At the same time, Law Lu Cruze patiently waited for the supplies from the rear to arrive before embarking on a pursuit journey again.
More than ten hours later.
ZAFT Army flagship.
The four G Project airframes have been repaired, and some of the weapons have also been upgraded and iterated.
The most important thing is that P. L. A. N. T Supreme Council sent a new experimental machine built on PS Armor.
Looking at the Gundam in the hangar, which was more than twenty meters tall and used the latest power system inside, Law Lu Cruze's mouth slightly turned up with a satisfied smile.
"Awesome! It's truly ace treatment. I didn't expect that in such a short time, Sir Patrick Sara built your new machine."
"It's unbelievable! It's amazing! This machine is actually equipped with the brand new Mechanical Neural Network and Blitz Gundam's Mirage System at the same time." Nicol exclaimed in shock.
"It's really enviable! How about it, are you satisfied with the new machine body?" Diego asked with an envious look.
"It's just okay."
Sakura glanced at the performance list in her hand and shrugged her shoulders very coldly.
To be honest, she was not satisfied with this new machine.
The reason is simple!
Although it is equipped with a new neural network, it is still far from the high-precision transmission system of Allen.
Especially when you don't know which part of the opponent's next upgrade will be strengthened, the performance of your new body is obviously not enough.
"Hey, hey, hey! You are really not satisfied!" Diego turned Byakugan angrily.
You know, he is almost drooling when he looks at this machine.
But it is a pity that within the ZAFT Army, which pursues an elite policy, it has always been that whoever has the ability and can lead the army to win the war will receive more resources.
This can be seen from the nearly Infinity amount of supplies of Rau Lu Le Creuset Team.
As the top ace pilot, Sakura's speed in obtaining the machine body is simply unmatched by others.
Needless to say, ordinary ZAFT Army people, even Red Uniform Elites are just jealous.
After all, after Sakura joined ZAFT Army, she created a terrifying record of annihilating one hundred Earth Alliance MA and twenty-five battleships in one battle.
Therefore, no matter how outrageous her request is, the rear R&D and manufacturing units will do their best to satisfy it.
In contrast, although Diego is also Red Uniform Elites that enjoys priority, when the body is damaged, it can only be repaired and upgraded at best.
As for replacing the latest model of experimental airframe, don't even think about it, it is absolutely impossible to get approval.
Sakura didn't care about Diego's little mood at all, and said to Law Lu Cruze without looking back, "Captain! If you really want to sink Archangel, then the next forty-eight hours will be the most critical period."
"Oh? Do you have any plans?" Rau·Lu·Cruze asked with interest while touching his chin.
"According to my observation, the mysterious machine driven by Allen should be impossible to repair before sufficient materials are obtained. This means that only one Strike and one MA on Archangel can go into battle. If we can launch an attack before the machine is repaired, then even if they merge with Eighth Fleet, we will not be afraid."
When she said these words, Sakura's eyes flashed with a chilling light.
There is no doubt that being captured together with Lacuss and being laughed at by Allen made her feel quite unhappy, and she planned to find an opportunity to take revenge and come back.
"How long do you think it will take to repair that fuselage?"
At this time, Law Lu Cruze showed the calmness of a genius commander and was not in a hurry to take immediate action.
Just the opposite!
As the supplies arrived, he had already started thinking about how to catch up and kill the threat of Archangel.
Of course, it would be better if we could kill Eighth Fleet by the way and completely destroy Earth Alliance's final threat in space.
"If nothing else happens, at least two days. In other words, when Archangel and Eighth Fleet merge, we still have about forty-eight hours." Sakura gave a more accurate time straightforwardly.
You must know that currently, ZAFT Army's pursuit fleet is only about a day away from Archangel.
If you want to chase, twenty-four hours is enough.
In the remaining time, you can observe the opponent's layout for a while, designate tactics, and then suddenly launch an attack.
