Machine Lion Roar

Compared with Lei Mingkai and ZERO, who did not hesitate to change the target of the carriage from the capital of Pandoragon to the Kingdom of Kirkstan, the kingdom of fighters in the Middle East, Layla showed the expected reaction of the two.

"Reason! I need a reason! Our preparations so far have been to defeat the four major knights of Europa and start sweeping Europa, and at the same time to carry out a precise attack on the royal capital Pandoragon with a carriage. Why has things changed now? idea?"

ZERO was silent, no, it was simply relying on the cover of the mask, holding up the "It has nothing to do with me" sign, and kicking this "football" to Lei Mingkai.

Lei Mingkai's mouth twitched a few times, and finally he reluctantly took over the troublesome "football".

"Commander Leila. Now our strategy has changed. Compared to the risky capital of Pandoragon, we think it is safer to attack the Kingdom of Kirkistan. After all, there, air defense and resistance are not as secure as the capital of Pandoragon. powerful."

"I refuse! This is no reason to change the established plan."

Lei Mingkai's seemingly sounding reasons did not convince the shrewd Layla.

ZERO, who was sitting on the side, remained silent, but Lei Mingkai still felt the guy's playful gaze.

"Lelouch! You bastard! Wait and see!"

After Lei Mingkai cursed ZERO secretly, he finally decided to tell Layla some of the things.

"Commander Layla. I'm very sorry! The statement just now is not the reason we changed the established plan, but the decision made temporarily to prevent you from causing trouble."

However, Lei Mingkai's apology was not understood by Layla.

"Please make it clear! Knight Lei Mingkai. If the majesty guardian knight of the imperial emperor is just a hypocrite, I am afraid that there will be no more knights in this world." Kai's eyes seemed to want to see Lei Mingkai's heart.

"···"

Lei Mingkai was silent for a moment, then looked back at ZERO whose expression was completely hidden by the mask, and finally made a choice.

"Commander Leila, do you remember the witch of the forest?"

With a word, Layla fell into the memory of the past.

It was a day of heavy snow.

At that time, Layla was just a ignorant little girl.

Lost in the woods, she met a group of people in white robes.Among the group of people in white robes, a tall woman with a distinctive gilt pattern between the collars stood out and came to Layla's eyes.

However, Layla's memory of the witch in the forest is all she remembers.

"You, do you know the witch of the forest?!"

Recalling the memory of the witch in the forest, Layla took a few deep breaths before stabilizing her feelings of loss of control for a while.

You know, only Layla knows the witch of the forest, and no one else knows it.

"Yes. Besides, there are people here who have a close relationship with her. Am I right? ZERO."

The "football" kicked over by ZERO was kicked back by Lei Mingkai at this moment.

"I?"

Now it's ZERO's turn to be confused.

What forest witch?

He had no idea.

The only person he knew, and the only person who knew clearly about the witch, was only CC.

"Wait! Kai, is the witch of the forest in your mouth talking about CC?"

ZERO didn't give Laila a chance to ask, but asked Lei Mingkai first.

"Correct. The true identity of the witch in the forest is CC." Lei Mingkai nodded and admitted ZERO's speculation.

"No? CC actually met Commander Leila?" ZERO was surprised this time.

"Wait! The name of the witch in the forest is CC?" Laila looked at the opportunity and asked her own question.

"Yes. The witch of the forest is CC, and CC is the witch of the forest. Commander Leila. Believe, you still remember the process of meeting the witch of the forest? Although we can't explain too much in detail why we gave up the capital of Pandoragon , The reason for switching to attack the Kingdom of Kirkstan, but one of the key factors in this is that CC gave us the intelligence that we had to do."

Lei Mingkai looked at the pensive Layla, and knew that he had succeeded in identifying the identity of the witch in the forest.

"Is it about the emperor?"

Layla knew that there were not many factors that could change the original plan, and the new emperor was the biggest of these factors.

"Yes. That emperor wants to fight for someone who can change the world... Well, it should be described with the word weapon." It was not Lei Mingkai who answered Layla, but ZERO.

"Weapon?!" Although ZERO used the word weapon to describe the content of intelligence, Layla realized that there must be something she didn't understand.

"Yes. It's a weapon. Commander Leila. Right now, we can't tell you too much information about weapons. Because we don't have much information in this area. All the explanations are in Jilk. In the Kingdom of Stan." Lei Mingkai took the topic.

"Really? Then, for this operation, I need to go together. You also hope that WZERO troops can participate in this operation, don't you? You know, the Kingdom of Kirkstan is known for exporting mercenaries."

Such a decision, although somewhat unexpected, also let Lei Mingkai and ZERO breathe a sigh of relief.After all, the control of the carriage is in Layla's hands. If Layla refuses to nod, it will be impossible even if Genn comes.What's more, judging from the battle reports that came back from the frontier not long ago, now Jean is probably more concerned about the progress of the suppression of the four knights.

"It should not be too late. Now that the emperor has begun to fight for weapons that can change the world, then we must race against time. The re-adjustment of the carriage takes 12 hours. I hope that during this period of time, you can select the ones that will participate in this time The elite of the mission."

"understand!"

Lei Mingkai and ZERO nodded in response.

The people on ZERO and the Black Knights naturally don't need to think too much.ZERO and Karen must be on the list, and the remaining two places will be handled by them.

And Lei Mingkai here...

Ok!

You don’t need to think about it.

Lei Mingkai, Euphemia, Cornelia, and Veretta.With just one sentence, four places have been selected.

"Abandon the attack on the imperial capital Pandoragon? Turn to attack on the Kingdom of Kirkstan? Kay, why did you make such a decision? What other people think, I don't know. But I have participated in the crusade against the kingdom of Kirkstan, Knowing that this country cannot be easily captured."

Cornelia, who has been active in the Middle East theater for many years, has an unparalleled voice in the intelligence of the Kingdom of Kirkstan.

"His Royal Highness Cornelia. Are you talking about the prophet of that country?" Lei Mingkai knew Cornelia's worries, but after knowing the true face of the prophet and the prophecy, Lei Mingkai was not so worried.

"Yes. That country is weird. No matter how detailed and comprehensive the strategy we make in advance, we will declare failure at the moment we are about to succeed and face the siege of the other party." Cornelia's brows frowned tightly. It seems that I don’t really want to recall the memory of participating in the attack on the Kingdom of Kirkstan.

"It's okay. We already know the true nature of the prophecy. Therefore, this will not become an obstacle to us. The only worry is that due to the size of the carriage, our participation in this battle will not exceed 20 Knightmare." Lei Ming Kai shook his head, leading the topic to another aspect.

"Kay. Not just 20 Knightmare, now we can bring the Pirate Gundam back to the earth's synchronous orbit and prepare for airborne operations against the Kingdom of Kirkistan."

Euphemia who made the suggestion first.

The silver-gray cloak on the Pirate Gundam can indeed give the Pirate Gundam the ability to enter and exit the atmosphere in a single machine, so Euphemia's suggestion is feasible.

"Well. It can be done. In this way, our combat power should be enough to deal with any situation. Moreover, even if there is an accident, we still have the Tooth Lion Zero."

"Finally thought of me? Kay."

The white cat lying on one side closed his eyes and raised his head in zero form, looking to this side.

"Zero. Can you enter the world of C?"

Suddenly, Lei Mingkai remembered a key question.

Only CC and VV have CODE in this world.Judging from the information they currently have, CC is imprisoned, while VV is missing.

But Lei Mingkai even more VV may have already been dealt a poisonous hand.Otherwise, how could Charles and Xia Lulu compete with the emperor for control of the world in C's world?

"C's world?" The white cat turned his head and looked at the vast forest outside the window.

"Huh. Is it inside the world? Interesting. Kay, as long as I reach the door, I will know if I can get in."

As he said, the white cat raised his paw and licked it.

"For some reason, this world exudes a smell that makes me feel very familiar."

Although the White Cat Zero Form did not give an affirmative answer, Lei Mingkai already knew that the White Cat Zero Form had a certain degree of certainty, so he looked at Veretta.

"Veretta. We still have 12 hours to prepare. Go down and make arrangements! This time the list of rides on the carriage is me, Majesty Cornelia, and you, Veretta. As for Euphemia, she can board in advance Get on the Pirate Gundam, return to the synchronous orbit and wait for the moment when the offensive order is issued."

"Yes! Your Excellency!" After Veletta responded cleanly, she went down to arrange things.

Twelve hours say no more, no less.

At the same time that Apollo's carriage was filled with fuel, all the people participating in the expedition had already arrived.

"Kay. How about you still command this time?"

Just as Lei Mingkai activated Lancelot's screen, there was a communication from ZERO.

"ZERO. Forgive me! Rather than commanding from the rear, I am more suitable for rushing on the front line. What's more, between the two of us, we need someone to rush to the temple first to control the tricky princess. Otherwise, we will count No matter how many strategies are prepared, the princess will be able to crack down with the ability to retrospect death."

Lei Mingkai talked a lot of reasons eloquently, in order to throw the cauldron of command to ZERO.

ZERO twitched his mouth and accepted Lei Mingkai's reason irrefutably.

That's right.

The strength of Kirkstan is not strong.

The only thing that makes Lei Mingkai and ZERO feel troublesome is the GEASS of the princess.In order to be able to resolve the battle in the shortest time, one of Lei Mingkai and ZERO must take the lead and complete the task of controlling the princess.

At this point, ZERO knows that Lei Mingkai will be the most suitable one.

Lancelot,

And the huge steel lion that can appear and fight anytime, anywhere,

All will be the basis for Lei Mingkai to complete the task.

"Everyone, there are still 5 minutes to launch. Please be prepared to resist the impact."

Suddenly, the head of Layla in a tights appeared on the screen in front of her.

"Commander Layla. It's too late to regret it now." After checking the seat belt, Cornelia looked at Layla and said.

Although the time to get along was a bit short, Cornelia admired Layla very much.Especially after she learned about Leila's life experience.

"No. Your Royal Highness Cornelia. This is my duty. The location of the Kingdom of Kirkstan is far east of Europa. From the moment WZERO troops fall into the Kingdom of Kirkstan, White Wolf Fort can , There is only waiting. Therefore, as a commander, I must know the battle situation on the front line as soon as possible, and make the corresponding command. I have completed this realization!

Layla's answer is firm.

"Really? Well, good luck! Commander Leila. I hope you can see a battlefield that is not the same as yours."

Seeing Layla's determined eyes, Cornelia knew that she didn't need to say anything.The rest is just waiting for actual combat to test Layla's courage and luck.

"It's still 1 minute before launching! Everyone is ready!"

With a countdown sound coming from his ears, Lei Mingkai slowly closed his eyes and put his body completely in the driver's seat.The White Cat Zero is very simply integrated into Lancelot's system, to become the core of Lancelot to resist the impact of Apollo's carriage launch.

"There is still 30 seconds to launch! Now enter the countdown!"

At the moment when the countdown started, everyone's spirits gathered.

"Ahhhhhh! It's going to be launched! Fan!! What are we going to do?" Shinichiro Tamasero, who was still patting his chest before launching, shouting that there was no problem, immediately showed his feet when he heard the countdown start.

This made ZERO, Karen, and Fan all show embarrassing and disgusting expressions.

"Why did you let this guy participate in this expedition? It's too embarrassing!" Karen's muttering was accidentally caught by the sensitive radio and spread throughout the communication channel.

In a blink of an eye, suppressed snickers abound.

"Ahem. Concentrate!"

Layla coughed.Brought everyone's attention back.

"Dozens of seconds back!"

"10!"

"9!"

"···"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Apollo's carriage launch!"

"boom!"

A huge roar instantly sounded from the deep well, and the burning tail smoke also rose up from the rocket named Apollo's carriage. It swept out from the bottom of the deep well and rushed into the air for rapid lift-off. The rocket sent farewell.
