As Silver Wind gradually moved away from Gwameir, the huge hull of Gwameir appeared intuitively in front of Lacus for the first time.
Around the bright red hull, various colored indicator lights are flashing;
Whether it's the pink propellant tank or the golden 'Celestial Being' emblem, they are all intuitively larger than Silver Wind;
The powerful main guns and secondary guns are pointing into the distance, and a large number of 155mm cannons used as close firepower are being oscillated and tested.
As Silver Wind moved further away from Gwameir, the 'Celestial Being' standard large mobile armor named Bigro Custom, which was the first to attack, also appeared on the ejection runway under the Gwameir hull.
"Light signal from Miss Bigro Custom, Cagalli, 'Have a nice journey'."
"Please respond with the same light signal."
Faced with the situation reported by Captain Silver Wind, Lacus responded almost without thinking;
Immediately afterwards, the captain of Silver Wind reported another situation.
"Communication from the Earth Alliance shuttle, 'Please allow us to travel with your ship'."
"Responded with permission and added, 'Hope our trip goes well.'"
During such contact, Bigro Custom of Cagalli has gradually moved away from Gwameir, and naturally also moved away from Silver Wind, leaving at high speed in the direction of Archangel;
What appeared on the ejection runway of Gwameir after Bigro Custom of Cagalli was the almost pure white Newtype special Bigro Custom.
"Is it Haman..."
Maybe it's because Haman's Newtype is dedicated to Bigro Custom. This time, Lacus feels that the presence of Haman can be clearly felt.
"Lacus·Klein, don't die!"
Faced with the voice that seemed to ring directly in his head, Lacus responded naturally.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Haman Kahn."
"Master Lacus, do you want to send a message?"
Obviously, in the eyes of Captain Silver Wind, it was Lord Lacus who informed him of the message he was going to send after suspecting that the other party was an acquaintance named 'Haman';
However, for Lacus who intuitively knows that Haman has received a 'reply', there is no need to do this.
"No, Captain, thank you for your concern."
With Lacus's response and the captain's response, although there was still the sound of crew operations in Silver Wind, it was temporarily quiet for Lacus.
And as Luther was physically far away, Lacus also clearly felt the sense of loss;
In other words, the 'favorability bonus' brought about by the resonance of Newtype is fading.
Therefore, while we have nothing to do for the time being, Lacus is ready to review these short but long two days.
Overall, although this 'adventure' has experienced some twists and turns, it has obviously achieved remarkable results.
First of all, the initial goal of contacting 'Celestial Being' and seeking cooperation can be considered to be overfulfilled - relying on the ability of 'Newtype' to accelerate, and even directly forming a camp alliance with 'Anti-War United Front' with 'Celestial Being' and Orb.
Then there was another unexpected surprise. Relying on the intermediary of 'Celestial Being', I was able to communicate face-to-face with the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs of Atlantic Federation, and reached a secret agreement against 'Blue Cosmos' and its behind-the-scenes manipulator Logos.
In the end, although it was a clear loss in terms of 'Natural usable mobile suit operating system', it was also made up for in terms of technology and intelligence.
In addition, there is a personal relationship developed between the members of 'Celestial Being' including Luther, Cagalli and Flay who stayed in 'Celestial Being' as 'protons', and 'uncle George'.
Of course, there are also Lacus·Klein's personal 'harvests'.
"Me too, Newtype..."
Even the exchanges and feelings over the past two days, as well as the 'contact' with Haman just now, all prove this fact;
But for Lacus, it still feels a little unbelievable.
Although this ability transcends Natural and Coordinator - or in other words, it is precisely because this ability transcends Natural and Coordinator;
Therefore, the fact that Lacus·Klein is Newtype, as the successor to the leader of Clyne Faction, has had an inestimable influence on politics.
While Lacus was thinking about the possible impact of being Newtype, Silver Wind, as the "middle" on the field, had already traveled more than halfway with the shuttle of George·Alstar, the deputy foreign minister.
"Sir Lacus, I received a communication from the friendly army CGUE, claiming to be ZAFT Creuset Team, the red-clad elite Heine Westenfluss Captain Westinflus."
"Please come in."
Following the timely feedback from Lacus, Heine Westenfluss wearing the Zaft standard red pilot uniform in the cockpit of CGUE appeared on the home screen of Silver Wind;
After quickly confirming the familiar face of Lacus behind the captain's seat of Silver Wind, under the Plant civilian standard suit helmet with the visor raised, and the iconic pink Haro held in Lacus's arms, Heine Westenfluss also breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's great that you are okay, Miss Lacus·Klein.
ZAFT belongs to Creuset Team, Heine Westenfluss Westinflus, and was ordered to come to greet him.
Please allow me to escort you, Miss Lacus."
Facing the 'stranger', Lacus changed his business voice.
"Thank you for your escort, Captain Heine Westenfluss.
This time, because of my affairs, I really caused trouble for you all."
"Whatever you said, it is my honor to escort Miss Lacus.
By the way, what's going on with the shuttle Earth Alliance next to it?"
After Heine Westenfluss responded to Lacus's polite words, he naturally confirmed the situation of the 'enemy' and received an 'innocent' response from Lacus.
"Ara, what you just said 'Celestial Being' Luther·Deikun, Captain Heine Westenfluss, didn't you hear clearly?
Our ship encountered pirates, thanks to 'Celestial Being' who came to the rescue;
In addition, 'Celestial Being' also helped us repair the damaged equipment, including communication equipment, it seems?
Then Mr. George·Alstar, ah, is the person on the shuttle;
He seemed to have only seen the part where 'Celestial Being' rescued Silver Wind, and ended up misunderstanding that 'Celestial Being' was a pirate;
So I boarded the battleship 'Celestial Being' alone, trying to mediate 'Celestial Being''s release of us."
Although Lacus's words seem to be missing some details, for Heine Westenfluss, it is indeed a self-defeating explanation in various senses;
And since it was the benefactor who was trying to rescue Lacus, and it was just an unarmed civilian ship, Heine Westenfluss nodded and responded.
"I understand, then please allow me to escort you to Gamow."
"Please, Captain Heine Westenfluss."
Heine Westenfluss cut off communication and began to escort Silver Wind carrying Lacus;
As Lacus watched, the shuttle carrying George·Alstar, the deputy foreign minister, began to gradually move away from Silver Wind;
Farther away from the right side window, in the direction of 'up road', under the inconclusive bombardment of Gwameir and Vesalius, the mobile weapons of both sides were arranging their postures after successive attacks, approaching each other cautiously;
Looking at the left side window again, Cagalli and Bigro Custom of Haman, which are advancing at high speed on the "lower road", are almost catching up with Archangel.
Seeing this, Lacus naturally thought of an 'acquaintance' whom he had never met before.
''Ultimate Coordinator', Cagalli's brother, Athrun's childhood friend, Mr. Kira·Yamato...'
