Unleashing Power, Gun vs. Nuke

Calming his emotions, Felix brought the scope to his eye. With the aid of computer-assisted targeting, he locked onto a Moebius moving at high speed and opened fire.

Two bullets erupted from the muzzle!

The trajectory of the projectiles did not follow the target's current position, but rather a predicted intercept point calculated by the computer.

The bullets streaked through space at high velocity!

The distance between them closed in an instant.

The rounds struck the Moebius's propulsion system with pinpoint accuracy.

Sensing the damage to its thrusters, the Moebius pilot did not hesitate to jettison its payload prematurely.

Hardly had the weapons been released when a fresh round was fired toward the incoming missile.

This shot was just as precise as the last.

The bullet struck the missile, shattering the thruster and detonating the warhead in front, triggering a chain reaction.

The Moebius pilot who had just released the payload was engulfed by the exploding missile before he could even maneuver his craft away.

The explosion of the Moebius ignited an even more powerful chain reaction, the light of the blast burning brighter still.

Watching the reaction, Felix realized clearly that this was a decoy missile, not a true nuclear weapon.

With that, Felix shifted his focus to the remaining four Moebius units, maneuvering his Ginn rapidly while firing his Heavy Assault Machine Gun.

His precise targeting made it impossible for the four Moebius units to maintain their formation.

Inside the cockpit.

The pilot checked the distance to the Junius City colony and spoke over the comms.

"The situation is critical! Launch the missiles! Intercept the ZAFT forces!"

Having said this, he was the first to pull the trigger.

As the triggers were depressed, the weapon pylons unlocked, and the tail thrusters of the missiles ignited, spewing exhaust.

The missiles surged forward at high speed.

Having completed their launch mission, the four Moebius units broke away, flying directly toward Felix.

Their intent was blindingly obvious!

Seeing the four Moebius units train their cannons on his Ginn, Felix's expression turned savage as he maneuvered to evade.

Dodging the incoming fire, his eyes locked onto the four missiles, burning red like a demon from hell.

"Bastards! You bastards!"

He cursed aloud.

He controlled the Ginn to fire at the missiles.

Though the Ginn was capable of precision fire, the interference from the four Moebius units and his own evasive maneuvers caused his accuracy to drop.

Several shots missed their mark.

Watching the missiles accelerate and close the distance to the colony, Felix felt his anxiety mount.

Amidst this tangle of rage and urgency, Felix suddenly felt a strange sensation wash over him.

In that instant, Felix felt his vision, hearing, touch, and sensory perception leap to an unprecedented level.

His mental acuity and reaction speed, in particular, saw a marked improvement.

Looking at the maneuvering Moebius units on his screen, he could clearly track their movement paths and subtle shifts in trajectory.

In short, it felt as if their speed had slowed down!

Felix had no time to process this change; his only desire was to finish off these enemies quickly and return to dealing with the missiles.

The Ginn maneuvered rapidly through space!

Dodging the various barrages from the Moebius, he swung his Heavy Slash Blade.

He cleaved into one of the Moebius units.

The Moebius exploded in the vacuum of space.

He then turned his Heavy Assault Machine Gun toward the flying missiles and opened fire.

With a single shot, the high-velocity bullet streaked toward the missile.

It intercepted the missile perfectly along its flight path.

The bullet struck the missile's propulsion system, and the exploding thruster detonated a contact fuse on the weapon. The detonator triggered instantly, and a far more violent explosion occurred—the light of this blast was entirely different from the one before.

This was the light of a nuclear detonation.

The nuke had been triggered, taking the accompanying cover missiles with it.

With those two missiles neutralized.

Felix fixed his gaze on the remaining two, his Heavy Assault Machine Gun barking fire.

No sooner had he fired than the Moebius units launched their own attack against the Ginn.

At the critical moment, Felix maneuvered the Ginn with extreme precision to dodge Moebius's attack.

"What's going on? How did this guy's piloting suddenly become so formidable?"

Watching Felix's precise and extreme maneuvers, the Moebius pilot's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what he was seeing.

After pulling off an extreme dodge, the Ginn opened fire on the Moebius.

Seeing this, the Moebius pilot hurriedly maneuvered to evade. He dodged the first wave of fire, but before he could even celebrate or counterattack, he was struck by the shots Felix had predicted.

Urgent alarms blared inside the cockpit.

A look of terror appeared on his face, but it lasted only for an instant before he was swallowed by the Moebius's explosion.

Meanwhile, the bullets fired by Felix's Ginn streaked through space at high speed.

They surged toward the trajectory of the two missiles.

Five or six hundred kilometers away from the space colony, the bullets narrowly collided with one of the missiles.

The fuel tank at the tail of the missile, still containing unburnt fuel, erupted in a violent explosion. The blast shattered the entire missile, sending its warhead hurtling toward the second missile.

The warhead of the first missile slammed into the propulsion system of the second, causing its remaining fuel tank to detonate.

The explosion triggered the warhead, and in a final chain reaction, the second missile's own warhead detonated as well.

The light from the explosion was blinding!

Inside the Ginn's cockpit, Felix felt a slight sense of relief as he watched the enemy's offensive being neutralized.

He refocused his attention on dealing with the two remaining Moebius units.

After a brief skirmish in space with the two Moebius units, Felix seized the right moment and opened fire with his Heavy Assault Machine Gun.

This forced the two Moebius units to maneuver and dodge.

While they were distracted, the Ginn accelerated toward one of them at high speed.

Before it could react, Felix struck it hard with the Heavy Slash Blade in his hand.

With that single blow, the Moebius was eliminated. Having done this, Felix turned his gaze toward the final Moebius.

The Ginn raised its Heavy Assault Machine Gun and opened fire.

Under the dual calculation of Felix's powerful brain and the computer, the Moebius walked right into a trap and was ultimately destroyed by the gunfire.

The fiery glow of the explosion reflected in Felix's eyes!
