Earlier, on February 7, CE71, between 11:00 and 12:00 standard time
As Gwameir approaches the war zone and relies on Gwameir's flagship-level equipment to collect intelligence;
So while Luther was chatting with Uncle Lacus and George in the guest seats, the capable Tessa had roughly completed the summary and confirmation of the current situation.
In fact, after we separated yesterday, Gwameir was always sure of the position of the Earth Alliance 8th Fleet's advance fleet.
After all, with the equipment level and personnel quality of Gwameir, it is not difficult to find the source of ultra-long wave signals moving with the advance fleet;
Therefore, when the signal that became erratic under moderate Minovsky Particle was suddenly interrupted, Gwameir essentially discovered this situation almost at the same time as Archangel;
Moreover, relying on the high-magnification optical sighting equipment on Gwameir, which was specially designed to fight under the high concentration of Minovsky Particle, the battle between the advance fleet and Gamow, Gwameir basically saw the battle from the beginning to the present.
Of course, for Lacus and George·Alstar, the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs, this is a rather 'embarrassing' topic;
So after the initial tentative exchange of words, as the situation became "calm", the two gave up the awkward chat and just paid attention quietly.
The focus of attention is naturally the trends related to Archangel.
As Lacus and George·Alstar, the foreign undersecretaries, heard when they first arrived on the bridge:
As Gwameir deliberately deployed some reconnaissance equipment while traveling yesterday;
Therefore, although it is not as good as the advance fleet, I have always been sure of my whereabouts after we separated yesterday;
But before the battle between the advance fleet and Gamow caused the ultra-long wave signal to be interrupted, the position of Archangel, which was approaching the advance fleet at full speed, had been confirmed.
Under the premise that the location of Archangel is known, some of Archangel's attempts to conceal itself - especially the "shooting marbles" with the electromagnetic projection gun 'Valiant' - have become deceptive.
After all, if the trajectory of the gravel is pushed back, it can be connected into a coherent trajectory.
Therefore, from the moment Mu's surprise attack left Archangel, the entire process was under the close attention of Gwameir.
Of course, due to the obstruction of Debris Belt, part of the traveling process is also looming from the perspective of Gwameir, and it is almost lost if you are not careful;
But now that we know the location and destination of Mu and Diu, we can still relocate it with a little effort;
And at the end of this exciting 'infiltration action drama', even Lacus on the 'victim' side became frightened for Mu Ti.
So when Mu Gong fell short and failed to do his best, and Shiho Hahnenfuss turned the tide at the last moment:
Surprisingly, Lacus was very sorry; but uncle George was so impressed.
Of course, both of them reacted quickly, but as they were both political creatures, they just looked at each other and smiled, which relieved the awkwardness a little.
So in the subsequent part of the Archangel vs. Shiho Hahnenfuss team, the two simply exchanged positions:
Lacus prefers Archangel, commenting on Archangel's excellent tactical operations and Strike Gundam's wonderful performance;
Uncle George is partial to the Shiho Hahnenfuss team, and is especially full of praise for the various new weapons of the early mass production model GuAIZ.
Of course, as a member of the Plant, Lacus's comments from the Plant's experience and perspective often make Uncle George, who lacks sufficient knowledge of mobile weapon carriers and mobile suits, feel enlightened;
On the other hand, Uncle George's appreciation for the various experimental weapons of the early mass-produced GuAIZ from the perspective of the Earth Alliance, who has always struggled with how to fight against mobile suits, also made Lacus feel connected.
Luther, who acted as a 'reviewer' and third party in the communication, inadvertently showed his 'foresight' and 'far-sightedness', which naturally deepened uncles Lacus and George's understanding of 'Celestial Being' and Luther, especially 'Newtype' and 'precognitive ability'.
Moreover, just a little while ago, the shadow of the Nazca-class high-speed combat ship Vesalius, which only existed based on the 'prophecy' of Luther before being discovered, and where Rau Le Creuset was located, was finally discovered through the diligent search of Gwameir;
In this way, the full picture of all the forces gathered on the Debris Belt L5 side and near the Junius Seven wreckage area, which should have no more participants, was displayed in front of everyone on the Gwameir bridge who had not yet "debuted on the stage" but had indeed entered the venue.
Generally speaking, the current overall situation of the three parties and five parties is like a harmonious bow:
Take the battlefield of ZAFT Creuset Team Gamow and Earth Alliance 8th Fleet advance fleet as the center point;
ZAFT Creuset Team Vesalius is sailing quickly from north to south. The line connected with the center point forms the long arm of the bow;
After defeating the Shiho Hahnenfuss team and simply cleaning up the battlefield, Earth Alliance Archangel is also approaching the center point at high speed. The line connecting the center point is the short arm of the bow;
As for the track of Gwameir of 'Celestial Being', which advances from northeast to southwest and equally rapidly to the center point, it is the arrow set on this bow.
At this time, Tessa, who had been taking command at the captain's seat and had hardly chatted with the people at Luther's guest seat, suddenly turned around to confirm a 'little thing' to Luther.
"Luther, are you going to make a public speech later?"
When asked by Tessa, Luther was a little confused:
In order to 'return' Lacus and George·Alstar, the Foreign Secretary, Luther will of course have to make a public speech. Isn't it possible that Tessa doesn't know this?
Then Luther quickly responded. What Tessa asked was actually, 'Does Gwameir want to stop the spread of Minovsky Particle?'.
After all, although they both share the Gundam world view, and SEED is often regarded as a replica of the original, there is still a huge difference between the two - that is, the existence or absence of Minovsky Particle.
And 'Celestial Being' as a visitor from UC World:
On the one hand, although Gwameir has been spreading Minovsky Particle to a certain extent since arriving at CE World, it has also been using the Minovsky Particle nuclear furnace and corresponding weapon technology;
However, in the previous battles, for everyone in CE who did not know Minovsky Particle, Minovsky Particle did not have a very obvious presence.
On the other hand, after all, a large-scale battle is expected to occur this time. Spreading a high concentration of Minovsky Particle will naturally be beneficial to the battle on the side of 'Celestial Being' while exposing the existence of Minovsky Particle;
Therefore, it is indeed necessary for Luther to make the decision whether or not it is necessary to completely expose the 'ace' in the hands of 'Celestial Being', Minovsky Particle.
As for the reason for such vague inquiry, the natural reason is uncles Lacus and George around Luther;
And why Tessa did not use Newtype communication to confirm, presumably because of the existence of 'familiar strangers', 'newly known close friends', and Lacus·Klein who are also Newtype.
After quickly completing the consideration, Luther gave his answer.
"Well, it's almost time. I'll leave it to you to prepare, Tessa."
Although Luther's reply seems a bit vague, it is clear enough for Luther and Tessa, an old couple;
So Tessa nodded, turned around and started getting ready.
