Chapter 236: Escape
Chapter 236: Escape
His reason evaporated, his logic dissipated, and his will wandered on the edge of collapse every second. At this moment, Ade finally fully understood why Lacus could unswervingly implement the Human Instrumentation Project. He doesn't believe that anyone can exercise restraint in this situation - at least he can't.
His love for Mineva before was totally equal to his hate for Nunnally now. He wanted to take away from Nunnally as much as he was willing to pay for Mineva. "Love" and "hate" have always existed on both sides of the same body. This is not only a gift given to him by Lilith, but also a shackle brought by Lilith to him.
Nunnally
He let his anger drive his body, picked up the sword that fell to the ground, and walked step by step to the owner of the name he was talking about. The woman who was called stood motionless as if possessed, with a brilliant smile on her face. Why? Why can she laugh so happily?
Nunnally
The cold shining blade came out from behind her, and the red blood beads hit the ground.
"Mr. Lingus, you" Nunnally shook her head gently, endured the sharp pain in her chest, moved forward slowly, and didn't stop until she was close to Ade's face. "Are you finished venting? Can I read the last line?"
"What do you want to say?" Ade asked coldly.
"I want to say" Nunnally smiled mischievously. "It's too easy for NT to cheat another NT, Mr. Lingus. Congratulations on being cheated."
It was like being poured with a bucket of ice water, and the anger that was still burning one second cooled down the next.
"The measurement of explosives is designed, and there is a prepared blood bag in front of her chest. Maybe she will get some injuries, but it won't be fatal. How sad you must be if she dies." Nunnally held Ade's arm and tried to maintain her balance. "Your memory is really poor. Didn't I just say that? How can I be willing to hurt you?"
After calming down, Ade began to carefully examine his spiritual field. Although Mineva's consciousness was indeed slightly weak, it really existed here, with no sign of disappearing.
"Because of the inborn impulse as a NewType, you accidentally killed a girl who admires you. With endless life, you will feel guilty forever until the end of time." Nunnally smiled and coughed up a mouthful of blood, raised her right upper hand, and stroked his cheek. "Mr. Lingus, this is my revenge."
"Are you kidding" Ade clenched his teeth. "Will I not be sad if you die? What kind of revenge is this?"
"You've been hiding from me for seven years. I thought you wouldn't be sad at all. It seems a little miscalculated. Cough, but since it's all like this, please accept the facts." Nunnally's pupils began to dilate. "Although the pain is nothing compared with when you were born, I probably can't hold on for too long. Can you talk with me about some happy topics at the last time?"
With a flash of a brilliant idea, something Ade had forgotten for seven years surged up from the depths of his memory, "Where is the supersolenoid of the sixteenth angel?"
Nunnally's body stiffened violently.
"On you?" Ade quickly speculated the truth of the matter, "In order to prevent accidents that may hurt Mineva, you took S2 with you in case, did you?"
"No, I didn't" Feeling the touch from all over the body, Nunnally opened her eyes in horror, "Stop, it's not on me, really, stop"
Nunnally, who had lost too much blood, was too weak to resist. Ade ignored all her nonsense and fumbled on her while paying attention not to touch her wound.
"I warn you, if I don't die, I will continue to trouble you. I will hurt Mineva, C.C., Lacus, Ange, Alice, Momoka, everyone" Nunnally's forehead was against Ade's chest and her right hand was powerlessly beating his shoulder, "So! Please! Stop!"
"As an NT, I can't hold on to the end of time in such a heavy sense of guilt. At least I don't think I can." Ade finally found a blood red crystal from her pocket and handed it to her mouth, "Open your mouth."
Nunnally clenched her teeth and shook her head desperately, ignoring the wound on her chest, which worsened under her struggle. Ade had no choice but to violently pry open her mouth, insert the crystal into her mouth, and then try to force her to swallow the supersolenoid.
"Uh, uh Uh Uh ~ uh!"
Nunnally finally lost strength and swallowed it. After the blood-colored crystal slipped into her esophagus, it melted, penetrated into her internal organs, and lurked in the cells, and the physiological structure of her body began to change quietly.
"It hurts a little. Just bear it for a while longer." Ade took a deep breath, pressed her shoulder with his left hand, and pulled out the sword with a sudden force from his right hand. Plasma burst from the torn wound and splashed on Ade's face and body. Then the wound began to heal automatically at an incredible speed.
"What is this?" Nunnally didn't seem to be aware of the pain signal transmitted in the nerve. She just shouted hysterically, "I made my life like this irresponsibly. Now, do you have to deprive me of my only relief?! What's this?!"
"How can I know? Think it yourself. If you really can't get the answer" Ade resolutely turned back to Mineva, picked up the unconscious girl, and walked to the door, " Then we won't meet again."
Nunnally stood in the same place, staring at his leaving back, trying to say something to make him stop, but somehow she couldn't spit out a word.
In the spacecraft that sailed from the Wheel of Angels to the moon, Mineva, who just woke up, was lying on the hospital bed in the infirmary.
"I didn't know it would be like this. Sister Nunnally didn't agree with me at first." The girl took the quilt in both hands and covered half of her face, "I'm sorry."
"It's too easy for NT to cheat another NT. It's a wise saying" Ade sitting on the edge of the bed was in a complex mood and managed the girl's slightly messy bangs. There's no way to explain the things on the Wheel of Angels. Fortunately, in his identity, he could just not explain it to anyone. "What's the matter with the last sensational confession?"
Mineva blushed, "At that time, my head was dizzy and I didn't know what happened, but I thought Sister Nunnally would never hurt me, so I Improvised."
"Worthy of being Lacus's student" Ade silently stroked his forehead with his hand. "I won't intervene in your dealings with Nunnally in the future, but my relationship with her has ended. No matter what she wants, she is absolutely not allowed to involve me and my family."
"Yes." Mineva carefully pulled the quilt under her neck and peeped at his face, "So When can we go home?"
"It's the last few days of summer vacation. Have a good rest and prepare for school next week." Ade lifted the quilt up again and covered the girl's shoulder that was accidentally exposed outside. "When school starts again, it's the third year of senior high school. Concentrate on the college entrance examination. As Lingus' daughter, you're not allowed to go to college by extra points."
Mineva's eyes quickly darkened and became lifeless. Ade looked at her lonely appearance and was distressed. He hesitated whether he should do something.
In the past, pretending to be dumb, deceiving himself and others, and being unreasonable had always been his three magic measures, but now Ade tangled for a long time and finally leaned down and gave the girl's lips a light kiss.
Mineva's face turned red like a cooked lobster. After about a second, she chose to cover her whole head with the quilt.
"Ask Rei to give you a general examination after we go back." Ade was very embarrassed and tried to change the topic. "She is an expert in this field. Let her show you if there are any sequelae. After all, the injury is near the heart. If it really causes incurable permanent trauma, I can heal you with the nanobots."
"No!" Mineva quickly showed her head and immediately retracted, "At least not now. I'm still in development. Even if I can't become as big as Sister Ange, I have the hope of approaching."
Mineva turned 17 this year, and her physical development was actually pretty good, but Ade thought the reference object she chose was a little unrealistic. He thought about Ange's breasts at the age of 17 and decided not to comment on the issue.
The atmosphere became a little awkward. The two people didn't know what to say for a moment. Fortunately, someone came to ease their embarrassment immediately. Mineva and Ade were very familiar with this person.
"Char? Where did he come from?" Ade just felt puzzled. "Didn't he come to rob my daughter? Tsk, I would have asked to escort him by Amuro."
"Uncle Ade" Mineva stretched out a small hand under the quilt and held his ring finger. "Be careful. He may be hostile to you."
"Fortunately, Amuro asked me to bring Unicorn with me this time." Ade took the girl's hand, kissed her forehead intimately, and repeated the action more than once, "I'll go back soon."
Ade's sensing range is now much larger than the radar of ordinary spaceships. It was not until he leisurely drove the Unicorn Gundam out that the large Mobile Suit with Minovsky particles appeared in his vision.
The MS looked like a huge flower from a distance. Under each of the five petals, there were 25 tentacles that could be used for melee and shooting. With an amazing size, the MS was naturally equipped with a high-intensity I-field, and the cannons of different shapes also provided it with considerable means of long-range attack. In the transparent cockpit at the top of the flower was Char, wearing a full metal mask, which was also connected with countless transmission lines.
Rafflesia Ade couldn't believe his eyes. He pulled Char into the mind space chat room, "Char?"
"Sure enough, I can find you by following Nunnally. Lingus, it's worth my ambush on this line for so long." Char had long been used to being dragged into and kicked out of the mind space chat room at will. He was full of self-confidence and had not been affected. "Are you still driving that old MS ten years ago? It has no chance of winning. Don't struggle any more."
"Although I'm not surprised that you will do such a thing, can I ask why?" Ade asked curiously, without feeling nervous at all, "Was it because I robbed your daughter?"
"Do you still have to pretend to be stupid? It's too ugly, Lingus." Char smiled contemptuously. "I already know the real use of the Wheel of Angels."
"Oh, you know?" Ade replied calmly, "Then, do you know I didn't make the 'real' Wheel of Angels?"
Char was speechless and the atmosphere solidified.
It's too easy for an NT to cheat another NT, because NTs deeply believe that they won't be cheated anyway. Ade secretly made up his mind to review this sentence as a motto from today on every day.
"Even if you're not going to betray humans this time, it doesn't mean that you will always think so. And as long as you take the wrong step, you will drag all mankind down to the bottomless abyss." Char was worthy of being Char and he soon found the right reason again, "You are too dangerous. I must kill you."
"I thought about what you said before." Ade patiently explained, "I've been looking for someone to balance myself."
"It doesn't make sense." Char said in a deep voice, "Except that I can get away from the black hole named Lingus, everyone else will only sink deeper and deeper without knowing it. Nunnally's gradual madness over the years is the best proof. As long as Mineva doesn't leave you, she will become another Nunnally sooner or later."
Ade was unusually silent.
"Linggs, I have no personal resentment against you, and even appreciate you. But this is something only I can do, and it is also a decision I must make for mankind." Char sighed, "Since I have known that you will become an enemy one day, I must kill you when I still can kill you."
"To tell you the truth, you almost convinced me." Ade exhaled heavily. "I put myself in your shoes and thought that if I were in your position, I would probably make a similar choice."
"In that case -"
"I also want to retire early and go home with my wives! Who is willing to endure all kinds of grievances and eyes of dissatisfaction and work overtime until morning?" Ade snapped at him, "But I've promised Lilith. What can I do except to keep going?"
"Stop making excuses. This is the end of the pointless argument." The muzzle on Rafflesia pointed at the Unicorn Gundam one after another. "Let me see how much combat instinct you have left after sitting in the research room for so many years."
Ade gently stroked the interior of the Unicorn Gundam and his eyes were full of nostalgia. As he thought, the sharp corner on the top of the MS was divided into two, and the blood red light was transmitted from the psycho frame exposed under the armor.
"Your MS is Rafflesia? If I'm right, it's probably similar to Unicorn's destruction mode. It's controlled by pure telepathy." The Unicorn Gundam stopped quietly, and three floating shields circled in front of it, "And your NT ability is insufficient, so you need to ensure the signal strength through that metal mask."
"It is because humans recognize their own shortcomings that they learn to create tools, and then evolve into what they are today step by step." Char was disappointed and said, "Lingus, the excessively strong NT ability has interfered with your judgment and made you blind and arrogant."
"Well, you're thinking too much. I'm not going to say that. I just want to remind you that Rafflesia itself and funnels work on the same principle." Ade finally couldn't help laughing. "Do you remember what NT-D is used for?"
Without hesitation for a microsecond, Char manipulated the MS to turn and run.
Rafflesia was worthy of being the latest MS of the year. Despite its huge size, it still ran fast and far faster than Unicorn. Considering that Mineva was still on the ship and Char might choose to kidnap her, Ade didn't dare to pursue after him at full speed.
However, even so, the control of tentacles had been ruthlessly seized by NT-D one by one. The dense tentacles roll up and point to the cockpit at the top of the fuselage. The beam gun at the tip of the tentacles was ready to shoot. Just as Char was about to leave Ade's sensing range, 125 beam guns on the tentacles fired at the same time, and a flame burst out in the dark universe.
