A series of light rays passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows and scattered on the corridor. On both sides of the corridor were a tall guard. A group of figures suddenly appeared in the depths of the corridor. The leader was a man with a grimace mask. Because his face was covered by grimace, he could not see his true face clearly. He could only slightly see the age of the grimace man from the slightly white hair roots.

As the crowd led by the Ghost Face Man walked quickly, the guards on both sides of the corridor immediately stood attentively and clenched their right hand in the chest as soon as they found the Ghost Face Man out of the corner of their eyes. Although the Ghost Face Man did not respond to the guard's salute, many guards who witnessed the Ghost Face Man passing by in front of them all shouted the same sentence: "I have seen the Knight Chief of the Paladin Knights, Lord Void!"

In the respectful eyes of the waiter, the grimaced man led the crowd to the end of the corridor, in front of a large door.

"Open the door!" Under the face, a bad sound sounded as if the metal was rubbing.

The guards waiting on both sides of the gate quickly opened the door as they said. Before the gate was opened, the grimaced man left the crowd directly and walked into the open door alone.

The crowd did not follow up, and the door was not fully opened, so it slowly closed again the moment the man in the face entered.

"Welcome back! Our Lord Paladin!" As the wheelchair slowly turned, the Archbishop's voice also came.

The man with grimace did not speak, but looked up at the environment everywhere, pointed to the projector where a certain figure was playing, and pointed to the pictorials all over the walls. After the poster, he continued to say in that ugly voice: "How many years have passed, you still look like this!"

"Is that so? Is there anything wrong with listening to our goddess's singing day and night, I don't think it's bad?" The Archbishop said calmly without seeing the joke in the grimacing man's eyes. It was just that his eyes were touching the pictorials and posters that faintly revealed a hint of madness.

"Hehe! It's a pity that your goddess is already someone else's arms!" The grimaced man attacked the taboo in the archbishop's heart without mercy.

"Bang!"

The crutch held in the Archbishop's hand suddenly cracked. The hand that seemed like a dead tree actually had such great power! It seemed that the Archbishop was also a hidden existence.

"Isn't it? The guy who occupied your goddess is still very young! He is so young that he looks like he left back then! Even if you retake your goddess, can you still do it after Lin Mingmei? My Archbishop!!" The man with a grimace turned a blind eye to the increasingly strong murderous intent in the Archbishop's eyes and continued to say it on his own, without caring about what he said at all, and kept cutting the wounds in the Archbishop's heart like a sharp knife!

"Bang!!"

Then there were louder sounds, which were even louder than the sound of the crutch breaking just now. The man with grimace looked over and found that it was the archbishop's hand that was broken two pieces.

"Haha! Your Excellency Archbishop! Be careful when you are old!" The ugly voice of the grimace man was still full of irony.

I saw the Archbishop holding the cut-off crutch in his hand tightly. After taking a few deep breaths, he threw the crutch away and laughed: "Interesting! Interesting!! How long has it been!! How long has it been? How long has it been? No one told me clearly like this, exposing me, saying that my plan was a delusion!! Very good! It seems that recalling you is the most correct thing I have done! Lord Paladin Void!!"

"Hmph! Correct? You destroyed my plan!!! My plan on the earth for many years was destroyed by your rebellious actions not long ago!! I put in so much effort and it was wasted!!" The man with grimace snorted coldly and cursed directly. The unpleasant metal sound made the archbishop's ear almost deaf.

"I know your resentment! But you must deal with the difficulties in front of us! The fleet of the new united army is approaching Windermere." After the Archbishop scored a city, he said slowly slowly, as if he was not him, but others, who were facing the city.

"Hmph! I will deal with it!" The grimaced man glanced at the Archbishop coldly, then turned around and left the room.

——————————

Ragna, 800 light-years away from Windermere, is located in the spherical nebula. It should have only the tourism, food processing and production industries, and does not have any important strategic position in the eyes of the Earth headquarters of the New United Army. But at this time, this seemingly useless planet was attacked by a powerful fleet. And the former New United Army garrison stationed on Ragna, the rebels of the Goddess of Hope Cult are now struggling to resist the fierce attack from this sudden fleet.

Although it has been a while since the war started, the fleet and the rebels fought back and forth. However, on the all-round battlefield, the rebels had their vital forces constantly being eroded.

VF-171s maintained a scattered and orderly attack formation, constantly strangling all enemies in front of them. In the gap between the VF-171 aircraft group and the enemy, the drone V9 aircraft group controlled by Xun also took advantage of the situation, and sent missiles back and forth, firing out fires, assisting friendly forces, or killing targets. Wherever the huge aircraft group passed, sparks bloomed by the explosion of enemy aircraft continued to appear like mushrooms after a rain.

"The left wing advanced too far and went to rest on the spot! The Phantom Squad took over the sharp knife position! The Muro attacked the three benchmark coordinates forward!" From the beginning of the battle, Catherine stood up directly from the captain's position, took over the command power, and issued orders without hesitation. On the side, Lisa Jiujo, who was also adjusting the attack plan according to the real-time situation of the battlefield at any time. With the cooperation of these equally outstanding commanders and staff, the victory kept rolling like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger.

He Moming, who was sitting in the exclusive position, was uncomfortable all over. He was supposed to be on the Phoenix Gundam, but now he was joined by Catherine and Lisa Kyujo, who should be like a general. Even if it was good once, he had to stay in the excuse of being in charge of the rear. Faced with the serious demands of the two women, He Moming could say something, so he had to act as if he was humble and was sitting in the exclusive position, pretending to be in a chic manner. I have to say that this ghost look really is not suitable for him! He is a pilot! A pilot who shuttles between stars! It is not a general who sits in a chair with a big belly and makes a point of fingering!!

"Fight quickly!" He's inexplicable eyes suddenly looked a little pitiful, and he was extremely eager for the battle in front of him to end soon. This would make his whole body disappear quickly.

While He Wuming felt uncomfortable because he could not go to fight, the highest commander of the rebels was also distressed and struggling. They had already found out the true identity of this sudden fleet. It was the Phoenix fleet under Major General He Wuming, the new united army, and it was the enemy of the Hope Goddess Cult! At the beginning, the commander was a little complacent, thinking that relying on the defensive front of Ragna Star could withstand the attack from the Phoenix fleet, and might even take the opportunity to defeat the Phoenix fleet.

However, as soon as the battle started, the commander realized that his abacus could not be heard at all. Not to mention the huge VF-171 fleet that took off from the mothership in a short time, the firepower of the frigates erupted at the same time was enough for the rebels to drink a pot. Not to mention, after the first wave of salvos of the Phoenix fleet, the MACROSS, named Phoenix, rushed to the core formation of the rebels at full speed under the guards of many carrier-based aircraft. In the rebels' horrified eyes, they quickly completed the deformation and raised the MACROSS cannon.

"boom!"

A dazzling beam of light suddenly burst out from the huge muzzle, penetrated through the center of the rebel fleet, and swept across the right side.

In the continuous explosion, the ambitious rebel commander found that one-third of the fleet in his hand had evaporated in a short period of time.

"How is this possible? Are you going to retreat?" The rebel commander looked at the battlefield situation chart bitterly. His own disadvantages have emerged. If he continues like this, he will only get the result of annihilation of the entire army. But when he goes back like this, he will suffer a defeat in the war regulations of the Goddess Cult.

"What should I do?" Just as the commander was extremely entangled and struggling, a message came from the internal network of the Goddess of Hope. The rebel commander subconsciously opened it, glanced casually, was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked at it, shouting: "Send the order! Shrink the troops, maintain the firepower density, and let the seriously damaged warships retreat first! Let us retreat!!"

The rebel movements were soon noticed by Lisa Kyujo from the battlefield situation chart.

"The enemy is going to retreat." Lisa Kyujo said inexplicably, and Catherine also looked over.

He Moming understood the meaning of the two women very well. But He Moming didn't want to wipe out the rebels in front of him. All he wanted was Ragna Star, who was being taken into the Phoenix fleet. So, the next action was very clear.

"After chasing another hour, the attack speed will be slowed down. If the enemy is ready to enter the FOLD sailing, let it go! All we want is this planet!" He stood up in his uncle's hand and said with a wave of his hand. At the same time, he sighed in his heart: "Finally the fight is over! No matter what you say next time, don't sit behind and watch!"

The rebel fleet, which was fighting and retreating, and the Phoenix fleet, which continued to release water as the pursuit time increased, staged a strange pursuit battle in the airspace around Ragna Star. The moment before the rebel fleet entered the FOLD voyage, this strange pursuit battle was ended by the Phoenix fleet.
