Gundam UC Hunting Time

[It would be better if it were a beautiful woman instead]

Does Zeon have female pilots?

The comments section veered off-topic again. Lin Xingyuan was speechless. He looked at Joni and spoke up.

"Nice to meet you, Red Lightning."

"...Does the Federation Army even conscript children into the army?"

After a moment of silence, Joni unexpectedly spoke.

“You’re the kid! I’m an adult! 19 years old! And a captain! Just like you!” Lin Xingyuan pointed at his insignia with annoyance, then immediately mocked, “Oh, no, I got this rank by assassinating the Nazi leader Dozruzabi, a criminal against humanity. It’s different from yours.”

"...I am a soldier! This is war!"

Joni argued back irritably, while Lin Xingyuan coldly retorted.

"So you call killing unarmed civilians war?"

"I joined the army for the freedom and independence of space colonists!" Joni shouted suddenly, as if confessing, but this momentum was immediately swallowed up by guilt. Finally, he slammed his fist against the bulkhead, exchanging physical pain for inner transcendence: "I never thought it would turn out like this! Turned out like this... Damn it!"

"Then why don't you leave the army?" Lin Xingyuan asked.

[That's right, that's why Uncle Ramball withdrew, isn't it?]

It's not that simple; Johnny doesn't have the power or influence of the Ramball family.

"What do you know?!" Joni glared at Lin Xingyuan, shouting in despair, "The war won't stop just because I quit! There's no turning back now. What will happen if Zeon is defeated?! You, who are on the Federation's side, have no idea how we feel!"

He howled like a wounded beast, reminding Lin Xingyuan of Rambo from First Blood.

“We’re all the same! Of course we know what Zeon did… We have nightmares too… But the thought of that happening to our own families makes us just keep fighting, doesn’t it? If we win, we have a chance to atone; if we lose…”

The chains of hatred have been formed; it's truly tragic.

Ultimately, the chaos in the UC was all started by the Zabi family. They went too far, causing a major rift between Earth's inhabitants and space colonists, with no room for reconciliation.

[And later Jokers were all imitating them, right?]

"Atonement? Is it about living shamelessly? Then making yourself and your descendants forget about it, so that you can pretend it never happened and feel at ease."

Lin Xingyuan felt no sympathy whatsoever, only cold mockery—by now, his mindset had changed, and he could no longer remain detached like a bystander.

"But let me tell you, stop dreaming! This won't end! The tragedy has only just begun! You have no idea what an irreparable mistake you've made! You think enough people have died? No, even more will die in the future! This war is just the beginning, and its negative impact on history is immeasurable! It will even affect the future of all humanity, and the root cause is this damned war!"

That's absolutely right!

[Perfect Lip Supplement]

The UC universe is in such a mess, it's all Zabi's fault.

"...But what do you want us to do? Surrender? Impossible! I will never surrender to the Federation!"

Johnny, enraged, raised his gun, but his hand was shaking so badly that he couldn't even put his finger on the trigger, so Lin Xingyuan wasn't afraid at all.

"It doesn't matter, Zeon is bound to lose anyway."

“The advantage is on our side, you guys—” Joni tried to argue, but Lin Xingyuan waved his hand to stop him.

"Don't believe me? I'm not afraid to tell you, the reason I went to Earth this time is to establish a new mass-produced MS application test unit. In less than two months, the Federation's MS will appear on the battlefield. Zaku and the like are no match for them. Besides, the Federation's production capacity is more than thirty times that of Zeon. Even if every Zeon pilot is an ace, they still can't win."

"...So what can we do?"

Although it was hard to accept, what Lin Xingyuan said was indeed true—Jonnie lost his mind and dropped the gun, his eyes filled with blankness. From the individual to the whole, he could not see any light, and only felt so heartbroken that he could not breathe.

The idea of ​​fighting for comrades and loved ones is such a self-deceptive and carefree notion; it's utterly laughable.

Seeing Joni lose his fighting spirit, the comments started mentioning Joni's return, especially the so-called Chimera Plan and the Zabi's Revival Plan. Lin Xingyuan was tired of these troubles and decided to intervene and change the 'plot'.

"Don't know what to do? Let me tell you."

Chapter 79 Partners of Justice (Subscribed readers, please refresh the page)

I'm so sorry, I was editing Chapter 77 on my phone in the background while I was in the car, and it inexplicably updated. Ugh, I'll fix it as soon as I get home. Please refresh the page if you have any questions.

"Don't know what to do? Let me tell you."

What are you talking about?

Joni suspected that the overly young guy was joking, but looking at the meaningful expression on Lin Xingyuan's face, he felt that it wasn't.

“You don’t have to surrender to the Federation, and you can continue fighting if you want.” Lin Xingyuan stared into Joni’s eyes and said, word by word, “Because no matter how much you struggle, the war will end next January.”

Hey! Is it really okay to reveal this so openly?

[Is it a minor problem?]

"you……"

Upon hearing Lin Xingyuan utter such outrageous remarks, Joni was stunned.

“Consider it a prediction,” Lin Xingyuan said with a smile. “That’s not the point. The point is what I, as a nobody, can do about it,” he pointed to himself and then to Joni.

"..."

Joni stared at Lin Xingyuan, waiting for him to continue.

“If the war ends in a Federation victory, those beasts in the Zabi family will certainly not accept it calmly. They will leave behind various contingency plans to keep the bloodshed going, especially the Purple Old Woman—I mean Kycilia. That woman is different from Kylian; she is more cunning and more extreme.” Lin Xingyuan revealed his true intentions: “Therefore, we must stop her.”

"Why did you ask me to do this kind of thing?"

"Jonnie asked unhappily," Lin Xingyuan said, looking at Jonnie's blond hair with a suggestive gaze. "She's a blonde-hair enthusiast. You're her subordinate, so you must be quite admired by her, right?"

"...That's not true! What nonsense are you thinking, you bastard!?"

Johnny was furious, but upon closer reflection, he realized that Kycilia seemed to... genuinely admire him. He was horrified and instinctively adopted a defensive stance.

however--

Lin Xingyuan: "I'm not joking."

Johnny: "I'll beat you up!"

"In short, if by then she wants to leave you any backup plan, or if you are in the know, I hope you can inform me so we can work together to eliminate it. Of course, if you can make good use of your abilities and kill Kycilia in advance, I have no objection."

"Was that to avoid more bloodshed? Was it for the minaret?"

[This pretty girl seems a bit cunning.]

[What the heck is "making the most of one's own abilities"? Is Joni just Char's substitute? That's so pitiful.]

"Shouldn't this be something the high command of the Federal Army is considering? Why are you doing this? Is it to climb the ranks?"

Joni looked at Lin Xingyuan with a sour face and suspicion.

"No, it's to prevent more blood from flowing."

"Ah, how noble! Are you some kind of champion of justice?"

Joni pouted and teased Lin Xingyuan, but unexpectedly, the other party looked at him with a shocked expression, as if some secret identity had been exposed.

How do you know I'm Partner A of Justice?

[God's Justice Partner A]

Are you Emiya, the Great Hero?

"...How boring. Where can I find righteous allies secretly colluding with the enemy?"

Jongni scratched his head speechlessly, unable to resist complaining, but Lin Xingyuan answered with a serious expression and a loud voice.

"My heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and all my deeds are for justice!"

[So it's President Kakashi! My apologies.]

[Laughing to death]

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Johnny was too exhausted to even complain.

After catching their breath, the two regained some strength. Joni looked at the monitor on his spacesuit: "So, ally of justice A, there's not much air left. How are we going to get out of here?"

Lin Xingyuan was full of confidence: "My teammates are nearby. At this time, of course we should make a big explosion as a signal."

"You mean detonate the remaining ammunition?"

Johnny's eyes lit up; he thought it was feasible. The two then fastened their helmets and split up to search, but the results were not what they had expected—the Columbus itself was unarmed, the damage was too severe, and the remaining supplies were not explosives, so there was no way to create a large explosion that could travel a long distance.

“…This is bad.” Joni glanced at the oxygen gauge again, frowning. “I’m almost out of oxygen, what about you?”

"almost."

"What should we do? Should we come with you to the underworld?"

Joni joked, secretly finding it strange. Just a short while ago, the two of them were fighting each other, but now he actually thought this kid was pretty good.

"You wish! I'm not going to die here!"

Having survived so many life-or-death situations, Lin Xingyuan was unwilling to give up easily. He looked around, desperately trying to think of a solution, and finally his gaze fell on the two mechs.

The Zaku's nuclear fusion reactor looks like it would make a huge commotion if it exploded.

Having come up with a plan, he immediately put it into action. With a leap, he quickly jumped towards his own machine. After checking, he found that one of his arms was still movable and the beam rocket launcher still had enough energy to fire once. He then tried to control it, intending to push Jony's red Zaku out of the ship and blow it up.

"What are you trying to do?!"

Seeing Lin Xingyuan tinkering with his beloved machine, Jonghyun became very anxious.

"Detonate your machine."

Joni sighed, "Don't waste your energy, it's impossible!"

"why?"

"Didn't you do it?!" Joni said irritably, "The nuclear fusion reactor is destroyed and can't be started. It's impossible for it to explode under these circumstances."

"..."

Lin Xingyuan suppressed his pulse—doesn't that mean that only his own mecha can explode?

This joke isn't funny at all!

[Five people! Press the self-destruct button now!]

Good grief, is this some kind of script written by Hero?

[Hurry up and explode! We want to see something big!]

The barrage of comments was filled with joy, with one user, "Cosmic Battleship Spring Rain," even gifting spicy snacks, just wanting to see Lin Xingyuan self-destruct his beloved machine.

"How could it be as you wish?" Lin Xingyuan really wanted to say this. After all, this was his beloved machine, every part of which was infused with Mei's and his hard work. It had always brought him victory and glory. Self-destruction would be too unethical!

But reality forced him to make this choice.

I'm sorry, Mei.

After apologizing to Mei in his heart, Lin Xingyuan took one last, reluctant look at his beloved machine, entered the self-destruct code 2887, set the countdown, and then used the last bit of thrust left to drive the machine away from the Columbus-class.

On Luna 2, Mei was staring blankly at the empty black Zani-specific maintenance table when she suddenly sneezed twice, feeling that something bad was about to happen.

A minute later, the black Zani that had flown away self-destructed, turning into a fireball like the sun. Lin Xingyuan stared at this scene and gave his companion a final salute.

At the same time, near the battlefield, Io and Bianca were still anxiously searching around.

"Has it been found?"

"no!"

"Could it be... that it fell into the atmosphere?"

Io thought of a possibility, stared wide-eyed at the blue Earth in disbelief, and was immediately scolded by Bianca.
