Chapter 218: We Must Not Lose!
With the experience from last time, Fram Nala no longer blindly believed in her X-Rounder ability and the performance of [Van Falcia], but cautiously stalemate with Luna Gundam. The dancing of the beam whip interfered with the shooting accuracy of Luna Gundam, and [Van Falcia] successfully avoided the situation where the floating gun was completely destroyed as soon as it was released.
Moreover... Yulin still did not use her full strength against Fram Nala, not because of physical exhaustion, but because she was soft-hearted.
"Can you tell me your answer now?"
"What?" Fram Nala's movements stagnated, but she quickly reacted, and the offensive posture became more fierce, "Don't talk to yourself! Shoot you down here today!"
"Really? Haven't you confirmed it yet?"
As soon as the voice fell, the beam flashed, and [Van Falcia]'s cane was broken. The next second, the beam fell like raindrops, not only knocking the five floating guns in front of the opportunity, but also smashing [Van Falcia] into pieces.
The limbs were intact, and the whole body was healthy, but every beam of light just brushed past [Van Falcia], and every beam just wiped off its external armor without damaging the internal skeleton.
"How... is it possible..." Fram Nara's brain froze.
I thought that after I was well prepared, I could fight with Yulin on equal terms. In the early stage, I suppressed Yulin and gave her the illusion that she could defeat the opponent.
But soon, the reality of the backbone slapped her mercilessly and told her what the truth was.
In the multiple firepower sniping, except for the cane and the floating gun, none of them really hit [Van Falcia]. The difference between before and after was very large, but no one would think that this was because Yulin's shooting was all in vain.
Because compared with hitting the target directly, the human body outline gun technique that brushes the body without damaging the internal skeleton is more difficult. A slight mistake will result in two other results, either directly penetrating the enemy plane, or completely missing the enemy plane.
In Fram Nara's eyes, Yulin's shooting ability is no longer something that a human can do, it is completely at the level of ghosts and gods.
"Your movements are too monotonous." Yulin said softly, "It seems that Gerhardt really holds an important position in your heart."
"Stop joking! How can a selfish woman like you understand my goal! Lord Gerhardt is the hope of VEGAN and the heir of Lord Izelkanda. For VEGAN and Eden, even if I give everything to Lord Gerhardt, what's wrong!?"
Accompanied by a roar, [Van Falcia] moved, her ferocious face flashing red light, dragging a red line towards the Luna Gundam, her bare palm unfolded a beam sword, and pierced the cockpit of the Luna Gundam.
Yulin is not good at close combat, but it is also relative. For a straightforward and desperate charge like [Van Falcia], she didn't even need to draw her sword. She raised her foot to kick away her right hand, turned around and kicked [Van Falcia] in the abdomen with a roundhouse kick.
"Ah~!!!"
Fram Nara's scream did not win Yulin's mercy. Four more beams of light fell, accurately hitting Van Falcia's hands and feet, leaving bare limbs and a skeleton stripped of its outer armor.
"You are very similar to me, no, it should be the same as me, right? No justice, no country, only one person, an existence that exists only for one person."
"No! I didn't..."
"...I just want to chase him, just hope to be by his side, live for him, work hard for his goals, and fight for everything he cherishes..."
With every word, Luna Gundam will cut Van Falcia's limbs short, like a ruthless torturer, inflicting capital punishment on the prisoner.
"I'm not! I'm for..."
"We are all the same, selfish, but if we are not selfish, we have no meaning to exist..."
"Don't... stop talking nonsense!"
If she doesn't die in silence, she will explode in silence. She doesn't understand what Yulin's purpose is. Is she just trying to force her to admit that she is the same person as Yulin? Or is there more conspiracy?
But she doesn't care. She doesn't want to be manipulated anymore. Under Yulin's coercion, she chose to resist. What kind of person is she? She can't let others judge her!
The thrusters behind the broken [Van Falcia] were ignited, and they hit the Luna Gundam with fierce flames, and just pushed her towards the distance.
"Uh~!"
"I'm not you! Lord Gerhardt is not Yang Hui! Don't impose your way of survival on me! Bastard!"
In the roar, Fram Nora looked fierce and activated the last function that could kill the enemy. She wanted to take Yulin to hell with her, and use her life to kill a powerful enemy for Gerhardt and VEGAN.
"Master Gerhard..."
The self-destruct system was activated, and the countdown was 30 seconds. With a resolute smile, Fram Nara looked at the battle zone where Gerhard was, and saw the red meteors flying in the universe, and the reluctance in her heart was relieved.
But the red figure in the distance only existed in Fram Nara's sight for a second before disappearing, and the light in the entire cockpit dimmed.
"What... happened... Why did the system stop..."
At this time, Luna Gundam drew its beam sword for the first time in battle, beheaded [Van Falcia] with one sword, and moved sideways with its cockpit to let [Van Falcia] pass by the advancing [Van Falcia], watching it explode in the universe, and the remaining fragments were also proof that it had existed.
"It seems that this child still needs guidance, otherwise... she will go on the road of self-destruction."
Yulin whispered to herself gently. In Fram Nora, she saw the shadow of her past. Even if she was treated as a part and forced to sit on the MS, even if she was scared, even if she died, she wanted to see Yang Hui again.
Now it seems how naive she was at the time. She didn't want Fram Nora to go on the same path. This is... people with the same suffering sympathize with each other.
...
Under Gerhardt's operation, the performance of the Legirus Gundam has been brought to the extreme. Bits surround its body, sitting on the sky like a god.
But even so, the Flag Gundam shuttled back and forth, always finding gaps in the fire blockade, like a flexible fish swimming in the sea.
The high-speed sweeping did not stop, breaking through the waves for the Flag Gundam, and the tiny bit nets swarming like ants could never completely catch the Flag Gundam.
Not only that, the Flag Gundam stopped suddenly, turned at right angles, and accelerated instantly, making countless irregular right-angle maneuvers in the universe, making it impossible for Gerhardt to grasp the opponent's movement law.
"Huh? Fram's signal disappeared? Could it be..."
The signal of [Van Falcia] was lost, and the movement of the Legirus Gundam stagnated for a moment.
And it was at this moment that the Flag Gundam caught it. As an opportunist, Graham would find it difficult to get away if he was given a chance.
"Don't look around in battle!"
"Bang~!"
A sword slashed on the shield of the Legirus Gundam, and the [Shigure Blade] showed its power, cutting off the arm and shield together with the harsh friction sound.
"Damn it!"
[X-Rounder Launcher] was equipped on the shield. In a moment of negligence, Gerhardt lost his most powerful weapon, the halo disappeared, and the god was knocked off the throne by mortals and fell into the mortal world.
Chest, tail, palm, beam gun, retreating while firing, regardless of energy loss, trying to submerge the Flag Gundam in the wave of beams.
"Naive!"
The Flag Gundam immediately transformed into MA form and left the original place.
The firepower coverage of the Legirus Gundam was relentless, but the Flag Gundam kept making various weird and exaggerated maneuvers, making all the gunfire of the Legirus Gundam fall in vain.
"Damn it, is Graham a monster? How can this action be sustained..."
"Beep beep beep..."
"Don't even think about it!"
The Flag Gundam was approaching, and the Legirus Gundam drew its sword to meet it, and they were deadlocked.
"I have been waiting for you to grow up for decades! As long as I can fight to my heart's content, what does it matter if I die!?" Graham's passionate voice sounded in the cockpit, and Gerhardt was stunned when he heard it.
"I didn't expect you to think so highly of me~!"
As soon as the words fell, the Legirus Gundam struggled to swing away the sharp sword of the Flag Gundam, and the beam cannon on its chest fired. The Flag Gundam used the force to turn over to avoid it, and at the same time, the tail of the Legirus Gundam lifted up, and the tip shone with golden destructive brilliance.
"Not enough!"
The back of the Flag Gundam burst into flames, and it rushed out in an instant, making the sneak attack of the Legirus Gundam fail.
"It's bad!"
Jerhardt secretly thought it was not good, but it was too late. When the Flag Gundam turned over, two cold lights had already fallen on the raised arm of the Legirus Gundam, and the only remaining left arm was cut into three sections and exploded.
"Damn, is this the real strength of Graham?" Gerhardt secretly cursed himself for being incompetent. Even with the most advanced Gundam, he couldn't defeat Graham, who was slightly inferior to Yang Hui. Wouldn't he be unable to surpass Yang Hui at all?
"Beep beep beep~"
At this time, several friendly signs disappeared, including Zanared and his fleet, and...
"Dor, Offa, Dieter..."
Thinking of the three people who supported him at the beginning and accompanied him all the way, and the signal of [Van Falcia] just disappeared, Gerhart's eyes flashed with tears under the mask.
But he can't give up now, because their goal has not been achieved, they have not failed, he is still alive, he wants to move forward with the will of his dead friends, no matter how hard and lonely it is, he must realize [Eden Project].
"Don't be distracted!"
"Bang~"
"Uh~!"
The Flag Gundam attacked again, but Gerhart's face was frosty and his eyes were extremely calm. The tail of the Legirus Gundam pulled out the Flag Gundam with an afterimage, and he retreated to the Lagramis Fortress with all his strength.
Since the MS battle was lost, he would find it back in the fleet command. He is not just a soldier now, but a commander. The hope of the entire VEGAN is on his shoulders. He...can't lose again!
