Chapter 100 Use your brain and don't make me sick
"I'm so sorry Wang Hu, I was too impatient during the previous battle."
On the Archangel, which was retreating from the battlefield, Li Chengzhi sincerely reviewed his mistakes to Wang Hu.
Why did he have to make such a formal review?
That’s naturally because what happened later was exactly in line with Wang Hu’s prediction.
Just as the Archangel began to retreat, they first encountered Mu, who had received the signal and was rushing back.
And the remaining enemy MS Jin En troops chasing after Mu.
When everyone on the bridge saw the Jin En behind Mu, they all felt a sense of relief that they had escaped a disaster.
Because if it was not Wang Hu's request, if they refused Wang Hu's order, they would have been hoping for luck.
If you choose to fight to the death with Team Cruze on the battlefield.
The best possible outcome would be the annihilation of Team Cruze and the destruction of the ship to the point of losing its ability to move.
But if they calculate this way, won’t they perish together with their opponents?
Although on paper it looked like they had gained an unprecedented victory over the ZAFT army with a battleship, the price was...
It's their own lives!
Of course, it is not impossible to change it in a certain situation, but if you can avoid it,
Even Lieutenant Bakilulu, who has the most professional military mindset on the Archangel, feels that it is better not to change if she can.
Afterwards, the group met Kira who had returned alone, and he had nothing much to say.
There was no Aegis behind him, and the Aegis Gundam was not shot down by Kira.
After a fierce and twists-and-turns battle, everyone was exhausted and didn't say much.
After all, as long as Kira returns safely, the rest of the people really don’t have any extra demands.
This kind of scene made Kira, who had returned worried and anxious, feel flattered. You know, when he came back, he was mentally prepared to be scolded by Wang Hu.
But when he stood in front of Brother Wang Hu, he just patted his head with a smile and said, "Glad to come back safely."
Brother Wang Hu?
Watching Wang Hu's back as he turned and walked towards the bridge, Kira stood there with a look of guilt on his face and remained silent for a long time.
His appearance made his classmates who came to greet him happily, such as Thor, Milia and others, confused for a moment.
"Kira, are you okay?" The girl Milia Liya asked worriedly.
"Ah, I'm fine."
Kira, who was hiding something in his heart, was shocked. He quickly covered it up with a smile and said he was fine.
It's because the battle was too intense that he looked tired.
Naturally, none of Thor and the others doubted Kira's explanation.
Only Frey, who was following behind the crowd, looked at Kira carefully.
I also remembered Kira's thoughtful expression when facing Wang Hu, as if he had done something wrong and was waiting to be scolded.
Wang Hu arrived at the command center of the Archangel in the bridge and no longer thought about Kira.
Since it has already happened, what is the point of scolding Kira afterwards?
Why should I endure the nausea and comfort him?
Instead of scolding him just to make him feel better, wouldn't it be better to just let his heart be filled with guilt?
Besides, does it matter whether Aslan lives or dies?
Indeed, in terms of combat power, Aslan, as the original second male protagonist of this world, is the one with the strongest overall strength among the three unparalleled combat powers.
It would be beneficial to let him exit the game early, but the timing of his exit is not very appropriate, at least not now.
It's the kind of thing where quitting now might end up doing bad things.
Don't forget that Aslan's father Patrick is now the chairman of the ZAFT army.
Patrick, who had lost his wife due to the Junius 7 incident and was about to lose his mind, would be in great pain if he were to experience the pain of losing his son.
Even if he went crazy and wanted to create a bigger wave of turmoil due to various reasons, the United Nations Army could still handle it on paper.
But he still holds the unfinished Genesis in his hands
Once the Genesis is completed, facing the crazy Patrick, who can guarantee that he will not immediately attack the earth?
"It's such a headache. How should I face Genesis?"
Leaning against the wall of the bridge with his arms folded, Wang Hu listened to Bugilulu and others summarizing the current situation of the ship while thinking about the future.
The problems of Genesis were solved by Kira and Aslan in the original world line. Now that there is a world that I have intervened in, can they still be asked to solve it?
Wang Hu couldn't guarantee and didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket.
Oh, Wang Hu's eyes lit up. The officer next to Patrick in the original world line
The officer who finally stopped Patrick and shot him dead.
According to the information in my mind, there is a rumor that the officer's grandmother or family members live in the Earth Sphere?
"Hmph." Wang Hu couldn't help but sigh as he showed a hint of a chance of victory.
The Adjusters keep saying that they are the future of mankind, but their roots will always be grafted onto natural humans.
Kinship, origin, family, a group that cannot be completely separated from natural persons.
How is it possible to completely replace natural persons as Patrick said?
Not to mention that the Adjusters have to face the unsolvable problem of genetic degradation. Even the Destiny Plan implemented by Durandal is nothing more than a castle in the air.
It may sound good, but without the test of time, it is ultimately just an attractive PPT.
"Hey, Wang Hu, what are you doing?"
Li Chengzhi walked up to Wang Hu unhappily and said, "We are very busy with the Archangel. But you are leaning against the wall, closing your eyes and resting, blatantly being lazy!"
Even if you are really tired because of the battle, you can go back to your room to rest and no one will say anything to you.
But now that you're on the bridge, you might as well pretend to be serious!
"Not enough supplies, right?"
As mentioned before, the Archangel set sail in a hurry, and had not obtained any proper supplies since the battle, so Wang Hu immediately pointed to the core.
His expression froze, and Li Chengzhi showed a wry smile on his face, as expected, every situation was within your expectations.
"Captain Wang Hu, do you have any good ideas?"
Baki Lulu, who was following behind Li Chengzhi, asked. Looking at Wang Hu's indifferent expression, she was guessing what he was thinking in her heart.
Could it be the same as the plan that I couldn’t say out loud?
"Where are the wreckage of Junius 7? Where can we find enough supplies? Considering the current situation of the Cruze team, we will have a long window of opportunity."
"At least until Cruze is taken back, scolded, and sent out again."
"No one should come to trouble us. During this time, we can rest, replenish supplies and contact the coalition forces."
“Look, is this a difficult matter to resolve?”
Facing the different looks from everyone, Wang Hu spread his hands and seemed to not understand why everyone looked so distressed.
"Captain Wang Hu." Baki Lulu was delighted when she saw Wang Hu put forward the plan that she also wanted to propose, and she hurriedly wanted to express her agreement.
This is not to grab the credit, nor to show that her strategy is not inferior to Wang Hu's. Baki Lulu wants to share the possible accusations against Wang Hu!
However, before she could say anything, Captain Malu looked around at the people on the bridge who were keeping their heads down and silent, and she spoke first.
The tone was not very intense, but rather hesitant, but the words carried a lot of weight.
"Can we not go to the wreckage of Junius 7? Maybe after Cruze and the others leave, it would be better for us to search over at Artemis Fortress?"
"There may be survivors of our army over there. We can try to rescue them there. After all, that fortress was built because of us."
"With such a big incident, Artemis Fortress will soon become a huge whirlpool."
"Out of humanitarian spirit, and the distance between the Orb satellite Heliopolis and the fortress, the first rescue fleet that appears there must be Orb's."
"The rescue fleets of the United Army and ZAFT Army that arrived later probably wouldn't engage in a firefight at the remains of the fortress."
Wang Hu shook his head and denied Malu's words.
"Even though everyone is fighting like crazy right now, the unwritten agreement on battlefield rescue will still be followed."
"But if we show up at the wreckage of Artemis Fortress, there will be too many variables during the rescue."
"The ZAFT army has just suffered a great loss. If they do something irrational, the vortex there might turn into a bigger storm."
"But." Malu thought about Wang Hu's prediction in his mind.
The possibility of a major fight between the Allied Forces and the ZAFT Forces at Artemis Fortress due to the appearance of Archangel is not impossible, but rather very high.
But even so, Malu still felt uncomfortable and didn't want to go to the wreckage of Junius 7 to collect supplies.
The reason is very simple. Due to the widespread propaganda of the Adjusters, that place has become a place of shame for the United Army.
All natural people with a conscience will unconsciously feel guilt and regret when facing the wreckage of Junius 7.
"Is it because of the 20 or so Adjusters who died?"
Looking at the expressions of Malu and the others, Wang Hu didn't mind pointing out their concerns.
"Yes, yes." It was Malu who answered Wang Hu's question on behalf of everyone.
"There." Sometimes you don't need to say everything to smart people, those who should understand will naturally understand.
"Heh." With a light laugh, Wang Hu looked at everyone present.
"Can you think of a better place than there?"
"Put away your inexplicably noble spirit. I don't want to see you go crazy with hunger and eat each other in the battleship."
"Also, don't just look at what the enemy is saying and ignore what's happening in your own country. Use your brains and don't make me feel sick."
"Ordinary people may still say they don't know what's going on in the Earth Sphere right now, but don't you know?"
Their expressions froze, and Ma Liu and the others' faces changed again and again.
Faced with a death toll of more than 10 billion, the adjusters cried out to heaven about the Junius 7 tragedy.
Compared with this, it is nothing.
But why do people like us always care about Junius 7 and ignore the April Fool's Day crisis?
Since it was put on the shelves at six in the morning, it has just achieved an average order of 500. Perhaps in the eyes of others this is a very small achievement that is not worth mentioning.
But in my eyes it's already amazing, so I'll add two chapters to thank you all for reading my mediocre novel.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to you all. I will only update four chapters a day for the next two days.
