Chapter 362 Final Decision
Yang Hui's words echoed in everyone's heart, especially Aslan, Nicol and Diego.
It was really hard for them to imagine that they were holding enough power to destroy the world, and even their country was about to perish, so why were they unwilling to use it?
Pretending to be noble?
Maybe, but... this attitude that should be annoying made them not hate it, and even a little admired.
Yang Hui did not abuse nuclear energy and nuclear weapons, which was indeed a huge loss for Orb, but it was a good thing for the world and the warring parties, because the reappearance of nuclear weapons would make the warring parties more and more crazy and less and less bottom line.
But ask yourself, if it was them, if it was the PLANT that was about to be destroyed, could they keep the bottom line as Yang Hui did?
Aslan and Nicol didn't know the answer, but Diego could answer with certainty that they couldn't!
Even their own home was almost gone, so what bottom line was there?
"What about you? Kira? Why do you want to fight?" Aslan asked Kira with a complicated expression.
"Me? I... just can't turn a blind eye, right?" Kira was answering Aslan, and also asking himself, "I almost killed your companion, and you almost killed Thor. I didn't know him at the time, and you didn't know Thor either, so you didn't think of killing him either?"
"I... wanted to kill you."
"Me too."
"..."
"How great would it be if this world no longer needed war? If I could live in such a world forever..." As he spoke, Kira began to recall the days when he was with Aslan and Yang Hui when he was a child, and recalled his school life in [Heliopolis]. "But... the war has been expanding. If this continues, PLANT and the Earth will really only have one way to destroy each other, so... I have to fight too."
"Kira..."
"Because I have already fired a gun, even if it was just for protection. In this regard... Yang Hui is really amazing, unlike me, not as hesitant as us."
"Yes, Yang Hui has been amazing since he was a child." Aslan smiled bitterly. Yang Hui was the first natural person that he, as an adjuster, felt he could never match or catch up with.
"Yang Hui once said that there are only two ways to stop the war." At this time, Cagalli suddenly spoke up. Yang Hui had left, so naturally no one would care about her, right?
"Which two ways?" Everyone asked, but Kira had a complicated expression.
"One way is to transfer internal conflicts to external conflicts. Hasn't the existence of extraterrestrial life been proven now? Yang Hui said that it is both hope and possibility, but also a huge crisis. Whether it is an adjuster or a natural person, in front of a creature with a body of more than 100 kilometers and can travel through the universe in the flesh, there is only one name for it, human."
"This!" To be honest, this concept is very new to everyone present, because they have never thought of this possibility, even Aslan, Diego and Nigel, who often watch fossils, are the same. When they watched [Evidence01], they just sighed at the spectacular view, but never thought about these things.
It feels very far away, but it really exists, and people cannot refute it.
"What about the second way?" Aslan asked
"The second way..." Thinking of this, Cagalli paused, and like Kira, her expression became very ugly, "Humanity will die."
"What!?"
"Are you sure he said that?"
"How could he say that!?"
"Hey, hey, hey, this is a big joke!"
Everyone couldn't sit still. They couldn't imagine why Yang Hui would say something like the end of the world. When did he become so crazy?
"He did say that." Cagalli gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "So I will definitely prove him wrong!"
Everyone bowed their heads and said nothing. It was hard for them to accept it, and they didn't know why Yang Hui would say such a thing. All the efforts Yang Hui made were for peace, peace in Orb and peace in the world, but he denied the goal he was working for.
Finally, Kira spoke up, breaking the silence and ending this uncomfortable topic: "Athrun, your goal is freedom, right? I won't give it to you, at least not before I finish what I want to do."
"Kira..."
"Thank you, Athrun, and you, I have to go back to work, it's nice to chat with you."
After that, Kira got up and left, Maru, Bakilulu and Mu also left, Diego and Nicol also left, leaving only Athrun and Cagalli.
"Why don't you leave?" Athrun asked Cagalli with a wry smile, his heart was in a mess now.
"I... I will be responsible for monitoring you."
"Only me?"
"They... they have someone else in charge."
"Really?"
"Are you happy to see Kira still alive?"
"Well... at that time... I didn't even say thank you, did I?"
"Well? I did, you said it, so it should be considered as such."
"Did you?"
"You were confused at the time, so you don't remember it, right?"
"Hehe, that's it."
Unconsciously, the air around Aslan and Cagalli slowly rose.
...
On the other side, Yang Hui, Huang and Wang Liumei came to Uzumi's mansion and found that the patriarchs of the five major families gathered together, waiting for their arrival.
"You are here. During this period, we have been trying to initiate negotiations with the Atlantic Federation." Uzmi said bluntly. He did not think that this behavior was holding Yang Hui back. If there was no need to fight, who would want to fight?
Yang Hui nodded calmly. He understood the thoughts of Uzmi and others, but it was obvious that they underestimated their opponents: "No response, right?"
"...Yes, we also tried to contact East Asian Republic, Equatorial Union, Scandinavian Kingdom and other countries that are friendly with Orb, hoping that they can help us, but..."
"There is no response either, and it is impossible to receive a response." Yang Hui shook his head. After Orb and the Atlantic Federation rejected each other's request, there was no room for peace talks between the two sides. After all, the Atlantic Federation was used to being strong. When making a request, either agree or destroy yourself.
Moreover, there was no possibility of negotiation between the Atlantic Federation and Yang Hui, at least not now, unless the Atlantic Federation could clean up [Blue Cosmos]. Otherwise, if the Atlantic Federation did not come to trouble Orb, Yang Hui would also go to trouble the Atlantic Federation. In his plan, the existence of [Blue Cosmos] was not needed.
"Yes, damn Atlantic Federation!" After a loud curse, Uzumi's eyes became firm, "Then Yang Hui, you guys get ready."
"...Okay." Yang Hui wanted to persuade Uzumi and others again, but after feeling their awareness, Yang Hui nodded helplessly.
"I have contacted [Heavenly Pillar], and Mina is ready." Old Sahak said to Yang Hui.
"...Emperor."
"It is expected that the enemy will attack again tomorrow morning, and the main force of the local area will also arrive, so we must stop the first wave of attack before we have a chance to evacuate." Huang said directly.
"What about the other troops? Kusanagi can't take everyone away." Old Sahak asked. There are really many troops left in Orb now, especially the MS troops, which have three battalions. Some of them were lost in today's battle, but the number is still huge. If only the tanks, aviation, fleets, etc. are left to the Atlantic Federation, it doesn't matter, but the M1 heretics must not be left. They must all leave Orb, and in the worst case, they must all be destroyed.
"Everything has been arranged. The 1st MS Battalion, the 2nd MS Battalion and the 2nd and 3rd Squadrons of the Special Forces Battalion will soon go to the End Island (made up, the other side of the Orb mainland), where the 2nd Main Fleet has been arranged to pick them up and will take them directly to Papua New Guinea."
"But in this case, won't the front line of defense tomorrow be without the help of the MS troops? Can they hold it?" Uzumi worriedly said. In today's battle, the main force of the MS troops' defense line, the emperor directly withdrew 80%, and the main force of the enemy army arrived again. How can they hold the opponent's attack?
"I will attack." Yang Hui said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Uzumi and others did not ask any more questions. Although there were some differences between Yang Hui and them, there was a fact that must be admitted. Yang Hui's words were convincing. Even if he attacked only to add an ace MS, he could not help but believe that he had the ability to repel tomorrow's attack.
"Leave it to you."
"Well, don't worry."
Yang Hui and the other two left, walking very resolutely. Looking at their backs as they left, Uzumi and others did not say anything to keep them, and they were equally determined.
Because they all knew that if they continued to talk, their courage might disappear. They knew that as long as they opened their mouths, Yang Hui would have a way to send them away safely, but they would not.
The Atlantic Federation would not let them go. It didn't matter if Yang Hui left Orb because he had the ability to protect himself, but if Uzmi and others were still alive, the Atlantic Federation would hunt them down to the ends of the earth, and even affect Papua New Guinea and the fire preserved on the giant floating platform.
Moreover, Orb also needed them to take responsibility this time.
"This should be the last time, right?" Uzmi sighed.
"Haha, Old Yang, don't you talk more with your son?" Old Sahak was the same, and his heart was full of emotion. The five people present, except for the Asha family and the Yang family who had always been close, had private struggles with each other. A group of people who had fought for a lifetime had to face difficulties together at this time. I think it was also the wonder of fate.
"No, I have been confident in Xiaohui since he was young. He knows what to do."
"It's the same with my Mina. I'm not worried about the Sahak family at all."
"But your other kid is restless."
"It doesn't matter. He was the one who was sent anyway."
"You are still so cold-blooded."
"As soft-hearted as you? And then be exploited by your son?"
"I am happy."
"Go away!"
"Hahaha..."
