Chapter 29: Deserted Island Thrill Night (Part 1)

A deserted island on the sea, Li Boyong carried a survival backpack and swam from the shallow water area where the Sky Grasper was stranded toward the beach.

At first, when he thought about going to the deserted island, he actually refused.

But the Sky Grasper after the forced landing couldn't even send a distress signal. After trying to no avail, he found that the cockpit started leaking water again, so he had to carry the survival backpack and swim toward the deserted island in front of him.

"It's okay, it's okay. Even if I go to the deserted island, it doesn't necessarily mean there will be enemies who are so unlucky to just happen to fall on the island. Besides, I didn't hear any commotion when I landed."

He comforted himself in his heart while swimming.

But there is an old saying: misfortunes never come singly. Before he swam to the beach, he saw that blue MS stepping on the smoking Guul and falling toward this small island.

Tsk.

It seems that the MS didn't fall into the sea after hitting him, but found the Guul in the air again.

It's just that the Guul should not have the ability to return after being hit by him, which is why it also forced a landing here. After all, there was only such a deserted island in the nearby sea area.

"What kind of sin did I commit..."

Li Boyong was almost collapsing.

He swam ashore and found a place to hide. After all, the opponent might have seen the Sky Grasper stranded in the shallow water area when landing.

Finding a windbreak, Li Boyong took off his pilot helmet and breathed a sigh of relief.

The Alliance pilot suit was unexpectedly reliable. The airtightness was okay. He swam over with some effort, but didn't get water in, which was a piece of good news.

Now there were enemies on the island. Making a fire to dry clothes was an act of courting death.

He recalled the direction where the MS fell just now. It should be at the other end of the island. Now there was no movement on the island. That meant either the opponent's machine was also damaged in the forced landing, or they didn't see his Sky Grasper, or they saw it but didn't intend to look for it.

That's fine too; they could live in peace until their respective reinforcements arrived.

Wait, something seems wrong.

The Sky Grasper had lost its ability to send signals, so only ZAFT's rescue troops would come.

Thinking this way, Li Boyong felt a bit panicked.

If he was out of contact for too long, would the Archangel, which was being pursued by ZAFT, just abandon him? After all, he was just an ordinary pilot, and couldn't be compared to Cagalli Yula Athha's princess status.

Did he have to play wild survival on this island for a while?

Li Boyong was scared by this thought and subconsciously opened the survival backpack to see what was inside.

Then he found that there were quite a few tools for wild use, such as knives, sleeping bags, simple filters, etc...

But it was missing emergency food.

"How is it possible?"

Li Boyong searched inside and out, but couldn't even find a biscuit crumb.

He thought about it and remembered that on the night the Desert Tiger attacked the resistance town, he had given all the food in the Sky Grasper to the resistance army's children for emergency use. After that, he had been fighting all the way, and although he paid great attention to the maintenance of the machine, he had neglected this matter.

"How could this be..."

Li Boyong patted his forehead in annoyance. The situation was very bad.

Facing this situation, he checked the System again, hoping it could be of some help.

Unfortunately, this devilish three-no System was of no help to him in this situation, and it wouldn't suddenly pop up a panel for exchanging survival items, just prompting that the mission of sinking the submarine aircraft carrier had failed.

Looking at the tactical knife in the survival bag and touching the pistol at his waist, Li Boyong, who was desperate, sneaked toward the landing point of the MS.

The state of the Guul after being hit was definitely not good. The commotion when landing was quite big, and there were vaguely sounds of explosions, but there was no response afterward.

Maybe the enemy pilot was still unconscious in the cockpit. Even if the pilot was fine, the machine should have probably had problems.

Then he could find an opportunity to solve the opponent. There should be food in the MS, and he could also try to use the MS to contact the Archangel.

Li Boyong sneaked along the edge of the dense forest and approached the vicinity of the MS, hiding behind a tree to observe the situation nearby.

He saw that the Guul had broken into two pieces and was stuck on the beach. The wreckage was burning, and some fragments were scattered around.

And that blue MS was lying at the other end of the beach in a weird posture. There was a large area of traces on the sand between the MS and the Guul. It seemed that the landing of this MS was not smooth.

Li Boyong observed from the dense forest for a long time and didn't find the enemy pilot's figure.

Could it be in the cockpit?

Unconscious?

Or dead?

Li Boyong hesitated and didn't act immediately, but waited until the sky gradually darkened before taking out his pistol and quietly approaching the MS.

After getting closer, he discovered that this MS was actually a GINN, but it seemed to be equipped with special beam weapon equipment.

"Experimental machine?"

He found the cockpit hatch and observed the surroundings. The hatch didn't seem to have been opened, and there were no footprints in the surrounding sand.

Looking at it this way, the pilot should still be in the MS's cockpit. Li Boyong found the switch for the cockpit and hesitated before turning it.

The hatch opened. Li Boyong didn't immediately show his head to check the situation inside, but waited patiently outside the hatch until he confirmed there was no movement inside.

"No reaction? Then it's probably cold."

Li Boyong had a general judgment in his heart.

However, to be safe, he still rushed out in a standard tactical movement, holding his gun with both hands aimed inside.

As a result, just as he rushed out halfway, he saw that the pilot inside hadn't lost consciousness, but was raising a gun aimed at the hatch. Li Boyong subconsciously twisted his body while pulling the trigger of the pistol in his hand.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two crisp gunshots sounded almost at the same time. Li Boyong only felt a pain in his left shoulder, let out a muffled groan, and rolled off the GINN.

And inside the cockpit came a cry of pain after being hit, which sounded like a woman's voice.

After Li Boyong rolled off the GINN, he hurriedly aimed his gun at the hatch, afraid that the opponent would come out to pursue.

But after waiting for a while, he didn't see anyone show their head.

He checked his injuries. Very lucky, it was just a graze. The bullet tore the pilot suit and took away a small piece of skin and flesh. It hurt a bit but was not a big deal.

The opponent didn't chase out because I hit her too?

No, it should be that she couldn't move in the first place.

Or was it that I woke the opponent up when I opened the hatch?

If it was the latter, then I was really too unlucky.

No matter what, I've already arrived here. I can't just take a shot for nothing and then run away in a sorry state.

Li Boyong raised his gun and approached the cockpit again. The sea breeze brought the pilot's breathing sound from inside. The sound was short and heavy, and mixed with a few sobs, showing that the owner of the voice was very nervous and suppressing great pain and fear. ===== CHAPTER 30 =====
