Chapter 314

~8 min read 1,420 words

The battle at the Daedalus Base was naturally observed by the Lunar Fleet of the ZAFT military; also observed were the destroyed first relay point and the other four similar abandoned colonial satellites that were suspected to have been modified.

Chairman Durandal, out of selfishness to implement the Destiny Plan, concealed the information about the Requiem from the PLANT government, but the PLANT Council was not a fool; they immediately had associations with such movements and started to conduct intelligence exploration.

The new Earth Alliance government, which intended to sign a peace treaty with PLANT, did not deliberately conceal it either, and directly took this long-range strategic weapon that could strike the PLANT mainland as one of the bargaining chips for negotiations.

The moderate faction longed for peace, but also did not want their own interests to suffer losses in the peace negotiations.

This kind of weapon that could hit PLANT would naturally trigger the Council's resentment and demand the dismantling of the Requiem.

But very quickly, the moderate faction received information provided by Wang Liumei; the information showed that the Messiah, a military fortress secretly built by the ZAFT military, was equipped with a newly built Genesis.

Although Li Boyong could not directly point out the existence of the new Genesis, he could completely guide Wang Liumei to collect information in this regard; with Wang Liumei's ability, it was not a difficult thing.

Information collection, agent leader, witch who plays with money—the bonuses of these skills and titles to Wang Liumei's intelligence ability were huge.

In short, compared to the Requiem system that had not yet been used, the Genesis, which had caused huge damage to the Alliance side, should be dismantled even more.

A subtle balance appeared...

The relationship between Naturals and Coordinators had not yet reached the point where they could trust each other, so holding such long-range strategic weapons against each other could also create miracles for peace.

No, it's better to say that such a balance had a greater chance of achieving peace and maintaining it for a long time!

It seemed that the situation regarding the peace treaty was indeed advancing in the direction Li Boyong expected; the fox Chairman didn't jump out to make trouble.

During this period, Li Boyong had been paying attention to his main mission situation while recuperating.

【Final Mission—Three Ships Alliance】

The world was once again facing the risk of being torn apart, and the members of the former Three Ships Alliance stepped onto the battlefield again.

Before the war caused irreparable damage, facilitate the Earth Alliance government and the PLANT government to conclude a peace treaty. (Success reward: 10 Plot Points, 15 Battle Merit Points.)

Current failure progress: 35%.

The failure progress did not continue to increase after eliminating Logos, and the peace treaty was also proceeding smoothly.

As long as the fox Chairman didn't jump out to make trouble, there would be no need to complete the other main mission: 【Final Mission—Atlantic Federation】

As the former hegemon, it still showed signs of decline; assist the Atlantic Federation to get rid of Logos's control and defeat PLANT to regain the leading position in the Earth sphere. (Success reward: 30 Plot Points, 10 Battle Merit Points.)

Regarding this main mission, he had already defeated Logos; if the Chairman made trouble and led to war, then he could only take the opportunity to complete this main mission.

If possible, before Shihe returned, he would rather complete the main mission of the Three Ships Alliance peacefully.

In case the war continued and Shihe's memory didn't recover, she, who remained on the ZAFT side, would likely step onto the battlefield and face him.

And if the Chairman didn't directly sacrifice the Destiny Plan, the position of the Three Ships Alliance would become very subtle, and might even encounter the forced intervention of the Three Ships Alliance in the battle with ZAFT...

So, if possible, the main mission with fewer mission rewards was simpler.

Of course, while paying attention to the main mission, he was also quite concerned about the side missions when there was no need for combat.

【Optional Mission—Phantom Pain】

Due to your speech, the world situation has undergone huge changes; you intervened to control Phantom Pain, united like-minded friendly forces, and eliminated Logos. (Success reward: 15 Plot Points, 20 Battle Merit Points.)

The first optional mission had been completed.

【Optional Mission—Enhanced Human】

These poor people who were created to defeat Coordinators had encountered too many tragedies; please give the enhanced humans a home. (Success reward: 35 Plot Points.)

The second optional mission still needed to rely on Wang Liumei to achieve.

Now, the enhanced humans rescued from the Rodonia facility were all under his protection, plus the three small strong ones under his command; how to arrange these people became a problem that gave Li Boyong quite a headache.

For this reason, he specifically found the three of them to talk.

"Stella just needs to be with Neo; wherever Neo goes, I go." This was Stella's answer, full of the little ditz's personal style of confusion; obviously, she had no concept of the word future.

"If I live with Mom, as long as I'm with Mom, I can go anywhere! Recently I've been learning to make bread." Aru's answer was full of confidence, full of longing for a new life.

"Ha, I'm not that naive; as enhanced human soldiers, where do we have a place in normal society." Sting thought a lot and very realistically, "If you throw us out, you can protect us for a while, but not for a lifetime; those who covet the abilities of enhanced humans and fear the abilities of Coordinators will definitely find ways to take away a few of us and continue the experiments."

"I have no other requirements now; I just want no one to manipulate my personality and memory at will. I should be the way I am now; if my personality and memory are manipulated, it's equivalent to the current me dying." Sting was very pessimistic, "On this point, you have done very well; we who only know how to fight really shouldn't covet to integrate into normal society."

"Perhaps, those kids still have some possibilities..."

After listening to Sting's words, Li Boyong felt deeply; he patted the other party's shoulder and made a promise: "Don't worry, I will try my best to find the best method; at least, I will let you get rid of the dependence on drugs. Believe me, give me some time."

After talking with the three small strong ones, he went to discuss this matter with Wang Liumei again.

After thinking about it, Wang Liumei gave a plan.

"I know you are very sympathetic to the encounters of these unfortunate children; I probably know what you want."

"But we will eventually leave this world; everything after we leave is uncontrollable, so I can't come up with a plan that guarantees 100% safety."

"Now, I am preparing to gradually transfer the forces in my hands to Flay to receive; the external performance is that I retreat behind the scenes and let her act as my agent; after all, my identity is no longer suitable for standing in front of the stage. In this way, people will not have questions about my departure and will continue to retain that awe for the power I currently hold."

"So, regarding the children's matter, I can only leave it to Flay to be responsible; according to my observation, having experienced so much, plus my training, she should be able to complete this mission."

"As for the children, the first step I plan to build is a welfare home with complete supporting medical facilities, which requires the group of people from the Rodonia laboratory to cooperate to help the children get rid of their dependence on drugs and restore their physical functions. In fact, I have already chosen the address and started construction."

"The second step is that we need to provide supporting security forces to isolate those covetous eyes; you have to find a way for this."

"The third step is about future arrangements; directly integrating into normal society is definitely unrealistic; we can only try our best to train them so that they can enter the conglomerate to work in the future, which can not only provide a guarantee for life but also not worry too much about safety issues; this is something Flay needs to be responsible for."

I have something to go out today, just one chapter.
