Chapter 144

Although these two GN-Xs looked miserable, the Dynames' condition wasn't great either; its entire right arm and right external armor had been blown off, clearly having been caught in the explosion when the GN Armor was destroyed because it couldn't detach in time.

Li Boyong hurriedly opened fire, helping Lockon take one enemy machine off his hands.

A GN-X missing its right leg raised its gun and charged at the Flag, performing evasive maneuvers while continuously firing with its beam rifle.

Very well, you want to dance, I'll dance too.

Since my machine condition is poor today, I, Li the Circler, will just fight you, this broken GN-X, to a draw.

Li Boyong very simply piloted the Flag, leading the enemy into a circling mode within the debris belt.

With one less enemy, Lockon's pressure was instantly reduced, allowing him to deal with the enemy calmly.

Now, as long as Lockon was careful not to let the enemy slip into his right-side blind spot, it was only a matter of time before he finished them off.

On the other side, the GN-X that was fiercely attacking the Flag hadn't had time to be smug for long before it encountered the Throne, which had sortied again from the Ptolemaios.

In short order, this already crippled GN-X was shot down by the combined efforts of Li Boyong and Shihe.

Immediately after, the two of them assisted Lockon in shooting down the other GN-X.

With this, the battle, which had been stalemated to the point of tragedy, began to tilt toward Celestial Being.

Sometimes battles are like this; a frontline that was originally evenly matched can often trigger a chain reaction for just a small reason.

And in this battle, the subsequent chain reaction was naturally Celestial Being liberating more and more combat power, and as these forces joined the previously balanced frontlines, it led to the collapse of the entire UN battle situation.

For example, the Nadleeh Gundam, which had been driven into a desperate situation with its machine broken, received fire support from Li Boyong and the others just as it was about to be shot down.

Although they had been struggling until now, both the Flag and the Dynames were in a tattered state. But with the addition of Shihe's Throne, dealing with the equally tattered two GN-Xs was not a big problem.

"Tieria! Tieria!"

After resolving these two GN-Xs, Lockon hurriedly maneuvered his machine toward the damaged Nadleeh.

"Lo... ckon..."

The Nadleeh's condition was very bad; Tieria in the cockpit had clearly sustained serious injuries, and his voice sounded very weak.

At this time, Li Boyong approached the Dynames in his Flag and communicated through the physical contact channel: "Lockon, you take Tieria back to the Ptolemaios first; Shihe and I will go support Allelujah's side."

"Understood, but you be careful too."

Lockon knew his machine's condition was also not good and that staying on the battlefield wouldn't help much. He carefully cautioned Li Boyong before returning to the Ptolemaios with the damaged Nadleeh.

Li Boyong continued with Shihe toward the coordinates where the Dynames had sent the signal.

However, when Li Boyong arrived at the Dynames' combat sector, he found that the battle here had already been decided.

The Dynames Gundam was heavily damaged, and it looked like the machine had lost the ability to continue fighting.

The two GN-Xs on the other side also looked very miserable, clearly having paid a huge price while dealing with the Dynames.

This was originally the battlefield where Allelujah faced the Super Soldier and Sergei Smirnov. In a desperate situation, Allelujah had burst out into the full form of a Super Soldier and fused his consciousness with his other personality, Hallelujah.

They had once driven the Super Soldier and Sergei Smirnov into a desperate situation, but unfortunately, due to the machine's condition, they were defeated by the combined efforts of the Super Soldier and Sergei Smirnov before Li Boyong could arrive to reinforce.

At this time, Li Boyong zoomed in his surveillance camera on the two GN-Xs and saw the female Super Soldier attempting to rescue Colonel Sergei Smirnov, who was trapped in the cockpit.

At the same time, Allelujah inside the Dynames Gundam also saw the female Super Soldier's appearance through the camera.

"How could it be, is Soma Peries actually Marie?"

Allelujah looked at the female Super Soldier on the screen, suddenly realizing the truth in an instant.

That's right, how could I have forgotten...

Only Marie could have exerted brain quantum waves on me!

So the person I had been looking for all along was right near me.

Recalling the time spent with Marie in the Super Soldier research facility, the corners of Allelujah's mouth curled up slightly, and then he angrily questioned his other self, "Hallelujah, did you know all along?"

"If you had known, you wouldn't have been able to pull the trigger."

"However, it seems the ending isn't much different now."

"Sorry, I'm going to go first."

The other personality left behind a few short words and disappeared from Allelujah's consciousness.

"No way..."

No longer able to feel the presence of his other self, Allelujah panicked instantly.

Thinking back on his conversation with Marie, it was clear that Marie had been implanted with another personality named Soma Peries, which was why she didn't recognize him.

"Marie..."

Various thoughts flooded in, destroying Allelujah's mental defenses. He stared blankly at the girl on the screen, not knowing what he should do.

From then on, this fellow's lines were reduced to only the word "Marie."

On the other side, Sergei and Peries were also startled by the sudden appearance of the Flag and the Throne.

Currently, Sergei was trapped in the cockpit, and Peries was outside the cockpit performing a rescue, with absolutely no ability to resist.

But the Flag did not have any intention to attack after approaching; instead, it placed its hand on the GN-X's shoulder to communicate.

"Colonel Sergei, are you alright?" Li Boyong asked, "Do you need my help?"

His tone was very sincere, as if the two were not enemies, but old friends who had suddenly met.

"I didn't expect to meet again in this way." The injured and trapped Sergei gave a bitter smile, "You won, do it."

"Although we are in opposing positions, Shihe and I have always respected you, so we won't do such a thing," Li Boyong said.

"What stupid things are you saying? You want to show mercy to me, your enemy? The Li Boyong I know isn't such a naive person!"

Sergei's questioning was filled with dissatisfaction; he had the dignity of a soldier and would not allow himself to accept such sympathy.

Now it was Li Boyong's turn to smile bitterly; he was certainly not that kind of naive person, but he couldn't bring himself to kill an unarmed acquaintance.

"Super Soldier over there, move aside a bit."

Li Boyong knew Sergei's temperament and didn't say anything more.

He directly operated the Flag to help Peries rescue the trapped Sergei.

"The battle will end soon; when it does, you two should just take the GN-X and go back."

Leaving behind these words, he prepared to go recover the Dynames.

But before that, Soma Peries called out to him: "Wait, thank you for helping to rescue the Colonel. But I will not forget the hatred for my comrades; one day, I will definitely shoot you down."

Li Boyong gave a bitter smile, recalling his feelings when he destroyed the Super Soldier facility, and admitted: "Sorry, I really didn't have the ability to rescue and protect the children in the facility; I could only do that at the time."

"…………"

Hearing the 'culprit' Li Boyong say this, Peries suddenly didn't know how to answer.

How could she not know the inhuman pain her comrades endured in experiment after experiment.

Watching the departing Flag, Peries revealed a complex expression.

"Take care, Colonel Sergei."

Shihe said goodbye to Sergei and then followed Li Boyong's Flag.
