Chapter 94: The Legend of Earth's Heroes

"The doctor and the chief immediately chatted like no one else was there. The conversation was all about 'I want to be the loser', something no one got but felt very terrific. You can read it for yourself later." Garrod picked up the book and gestured, "The two soon became good friends and set the great goal of unifying the world by force and building a harmonious society together."

"Hasn't the world already been unified?" Ange asked, puzzled.

"It seems so, but due to Earth's oppressive policies, the rebellion of the satellite inhabitants was at the drop of a hat, and there were various terrorist attacks around the world. It really couldn't be called peaceful." Garrod showed an expression of admiration, "The Doctor said to the Commander-in-Chief at that time, 'Treize, I want to retire at the age of twenty-five, let's hurry up and make the world peaceful.' Look, what a humble character, what a great sentiment!"

"Maybe he really does want to retire at the age of twenty-five." Ade thought, but looking at Garrod's expression, he did not speak it out.

"The two men set the policy that the commander-in-chief is responsible for controlling OZ, military operations, political struggle, economic security, diplomatic negotiations, public opinion propaganda, selection of talents, resource deployment, system construction, etc. The commander-in-chief is so talented that every aspect is done perfectly and impeccably."

"There is such a great man in the world!" Ange marveled for a moment and suddenly reacted, "How come everything was done by this commander-in-chief? What was that Dr. Yang doing?"

"Of course, he was in charge of designing Gundams! The doctor is the father of Gundam, he created a brand new MS designing concept, 'Gundam'. My DX is the doctor's work." Garrod looked like he took it for granted, "The Doctor is also responsible for finding the right pilots for Gundams and helping them build the right worldviews."

"Strange." Ange stretched out a finger and rubbed her chin, "I feel like I've heard this story recently."

"The following year, during a military operation, the Doctor's invention, Gundam made its debut. The Gundam was piloted by the Commander-in-Chief himself and reached a crushing victory, taking out a large human experimentation base of some international terrorist organization in one fell swoop." Garrod flipped through the pages, "The terrorists went on a rampage and demolished the entire base, with only a ten-year-old girl surviving as an experimental subject. Due to the destruction of the base's database and the girl's memory loss caused by the human experimentation, the doctor couldn't find the little girl's identity and chose to adopt her in the end."

"The little girl's identity is also a foreshadowing," murmured Ade.

"Later, the Doctor secretly gave five powerful Gundams to the five rebel leaders on the satellites and used their hands to eliminate the factions that opposed OZ. After the satellite residents released their anger, the doctor persuaded the rebel leaders to work together to build a better world. The rebels were persuaded by the doctor, gave up their armed forces, and surrendered to OZ."

"This doctor seems to be an honest man who is dedicated to technology, but he is actually full of bad intentions." Ange leaned over to Ade and whispered, "Much like someone, don't you think?"

"The second half of the book is about how the Doctor and the Commander-in-Chief took a bunch of ACEs to unify the Earth." Garrod scratched his head, "How to say it? The battle plots in this novel are not very well written, but the literary and emotional scenes are quite well written. Most of the content is about the doctor and the Commander-in-Chief's talks, and the doctor and his adopted daughter's sweet daily life."

"Is there a character called Zechs Merquise?" Ade thought of Epyon which just blew up a few days ago, "Did he show up?"

"Oh, yes." Garrod took the computer and clicked something in it, "Zechs Merquise was a prince. His country was destroyed by the Federation, for revenge, he infiltrated OZ, and had a long talk with the doctor after being found, after which he surrendered to the Doctor and became an ACE of OZ. He also had a sister named Relena, who later married a guy named Heero Yuy, one of the five rebel leaders."

"I suddenly feel so horrible about this Doctor." Ange winced, "It's like all the ones he talked to somehow surrendered to him later."

"It's called charisma, you don't understand." Garrod grunted in defiance, "Found it, this music video is made by OZ to promote the concept of world peace, the song is written by the doctor, called "This is Love". The female lead in it is Relena."

Garrod pressed the play button and the music started. A long-haired girl dressed as an explorer appeared in the video, and as she walked through the prairie with the song, she played with various animals. The girl is beautiful, playful, and a little prideful. The video is short, but the music and scenes perfectly restore Gundam W's theme music in Ade's memory.

"Crap! He really knows how to play!" Ade looked and drooled, "After I get back, I must also do this… I need to deal with TurnX first. Forget it."

"This last part of the book is all about the daily life of the doctor and his adopted daughter," Garrod flipped to the end, "Two years later, when the Doctor was eighteen, he and Treize successfully unified the Earth circle and the satellite circle. That's when the Commander-in-Chief told the Doctor the secret that there was actually a common mastermind behind all the terrorist activities, and that the Commander-in-Chief himself was a member of another secret organization that kept the peace."

"Wait, did you just say palladium fusion furnace?" Ade understands Dr. Yang's feelings very well at this moment, "No such coincidence, right …"

"This secret terrorist organization is called Amalgam, and this secret anti-terrorist organization is called Mithril. The Commander-in-Chief, as the top of Mithril, officially invited the Doctor to join Mithril as the head of the research department." Garrod looked unusually excited and obviously enjoyed the episode very much, "And the Doctor looked back on his previous career and found that there were actually many things that had hinted the existence of Mithril, but he never noticed. That's when the Doctor uttered the most famous line of his life—"

"I can't find a credible reason for this broken worldview," Ade muttered.

"That's the line!" Garrod slapped the table, "You really are a fan of the Doctor too, little brother!"

Saying goodbye to Garrod and Tiffa, Ade with the book returned to the room. His mind was filled with thoughts, and he could only empty his brain to concentrate on reading. Ange was hanging around the battleship alone. He was interrupted by Ange once at noon and once in the afternoon to eat, and the rest of his time was all spent on reading until late at night.

"Ah! The soft bed! Ah! The soft quilt!" Ange rolled around happily on the bed, "Finally, I don't have to put up with that hard bed in the vault anymore!"

"Quiet, Friday." He interrupted her mercilessly, "I'm reading."

"That's enough, do you know what time it is?" Ange glared at him righteously, "I have to go to bed if you don't. Can't you read it tomorrow? Go to bed, no, go take a shower first!"

Ade looked at the time and closed the book helplessly, "You're getting more and more self-indulgent lately."

"No, no, no." Ange smiled smugly, "It's that I finally summed up the way to get along with you recently, I suddenly found out that you are actually very understandable as a person. I used to be the one who was stupid, but now my IQ has improved and I'm no longer afraid of you fooling around."

"Oh, yeah?" Ade put the book down, "Then I'll give you a five-year-old IQ test question. If you can figure out the answer after I came back from the shower, I will never fool you again."

"If you can, you can take the six-year-old's IQ test question!"

"Look, you're at the level of a six-year-old child." Ange heard this sentence and instantly got annoyed. Ade said, "There is an animal, from a distance, it looks like a dog; at close hand, it looks like a dog; you beat it, it doesn't run; you scold it, it doesn't leave. If you drag it, it will go with you immediately. What is this animal? Well, that's it, you take your time to guess."

When taking the shower, Ade was in a very good mood, humming songs all the time. As expected, after he went back to the room, Ange still frowned and sat on the bed meditating. The young girl was ready for bed, wrapping herself in a quilt. Ade locked the door and put away and folded the clothes and underwear she had put in disarray - a job he had long done for her.

"What the hell is it?" Ange looked at him in distress, "I surrender."

Ade sat down on the edge of the bed and tried to hold back his laughter, "Dead dog."

"You bastard!" Ange all of a sudden stormed out from under the covers and pounced on Ade to pin him to the bed. Ade felt a little dizzy looking at what were wobbling in front of him, and realizing what she had done, Ange fiercely shrank back under the covers and wrapped herself tightly. "Too insidious, you asked this question just for this moment just now, right?! Are you still going to say that you don't like big chests?!"

"You did this yourself, how can you blame me for this? Or is my IQ already this high in your mind?" Ade turned off the light and lay down on the bed, and Ange skillfully moved in. The two seemed to have reached some kind of tacit agreement. Although they were already so intimate, Ange stubbornly never took the initiative to do "it", insisting on waiting until Ade took the initiative to do "it".

The darkness stilled Ange as well, and she lay by his side, facing him and asking slyly, "Ade, where exactly are we now?"

"We are on Earth, but not on the original one." In the darkness, the young girl shook her head to show that she could not understand, "This world does not have the existence of Minovsky particles, that's why my Gundam was scrapped. Minovsky particles are the basic particles that make up the world, but they surprisingly don't exist in this place, which means that we have arrived in a different world."

"Two Earths?" Ange blinked her big eyes.

"Parallel worlds, I guess, you can understand it as two Earths." Ade was also organizing his thoughts through the narration, "This world was destroyed by one called Embryo, causing most of the Earth to be uninhabitable, and even humans almost became extinct. As for Embryo, I have heard this name in Arsenal, who is said to be the real master of Misurugi. You're the princess but don't know anything, so lucky."

Ange unsatisfactorily squeezed his arm, and then she shrank back in embarrassment.

"There should be some method to go back and forth between the two worlds, or at least Embryo mastered that method. We have also unintentionally triggered it." he laughed bitterly, "from here on, it's my speculation. The pilot of TurnX is probably Embryo. Something others don't know had happened between him and Yang Wen-li, which made him hate Yang Wen-li so much. And due to some commonality between Yang and me, he recognized me as similar to him, that's why he was so excited at that time."

"That Dr. Yang sounds so impressive, his life experience sounds like a novel." Ange's voice sounded confused, "Why would someone so powerful commit suicide? I can't figure it out."

"Because of desperation, because there's nothing to do, because it's so much easier to die than to live." Ade sighed, "I'm afraid that all the characters who appeared in those stories today are dead. All his friends and lovers were dead, and he couldn't find any way to defeat the enemy, so what else was there to do but to commit suicide?"

"If we find a way to go back, you will also have to face that TurnX and Embryo, right?" Ange hesitated for a moment, came up to hug Ade's arm, and rested her head on his shoulder, "If you also can't find a way like Dr. Yang, would you … kill yourself?"

He imagined. If Lacus, C.C., Mineva, Ange, Amuro, Kou, Shinn… all the people he knew and cared about died one by one in front of his eyes, and he had nothing to do with the culprit, what to do at such a time?

"I don't know." He looked at the ceiling in a daze, "This kind of despair is unimaginable unless you experience it yourself, but if it was NT, you would have gone crazy before you killed yourself, right? Maybe be a little happier that way?"

Ange didn't answer, just hugged him a little tighter. Ade didn't say anything either and was thinking something in his heart.

"Ange, how do you prove that a person is who he is?" He suddenly broke the silence. His voice sounded trembled, "If one day, someone tells you that you're not actually Ange and comes up with evidence that seems so solid that even you're on the verge of believing it, what are you going to do? To deny it?"

"Of course I'm going to deny it, no matter what." Without thinking, Ange replied, "I don't know how to deny it, but I am Ange anyway, not anyone, won't become anyone, and don't want to become anyone."

The room once again fell into a brief silence. Ange listened to the slightly flustered breath of the person next to her and followed it with a hint of tension and a little anticipation.

"Alice said that memory is the essential element of self-awareness, and I don't know if she's right, but you must be right." He looked down and rubbed Ange's head, asking softly, "Ange, tell me, what's my name?" (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

"Hmm?" The young girl unknowingly tried to lift her head, but hearing his voice and feeling the contact between their bodies, she only felt so soft that it was difficult to even move her neck, "Adrien Lingus?"

"Right." He ruffled the young girl's short hair and gently kissed her on the forehead, "How clever."

Ange's eyes became more and more confused, and her breathing became more and more ragged as if she was being tickled by something in her heart. After a long time, she still did not wait for the following, and could not help but ask, "And then?"

"There is no then." Ade closed his eyes, "Sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow to read the book."

"… ha?" Ange opened her eyes wide in disbelief, shaking with anger. Suddenly filled with strength again, she angrily pushed him away and pulled and wrapped the quilt all over herself. Then she stretched out a finger and poked him hard in the chest, saying with hatred word by word, "I hate a man like you who only dares to tease me but doesn't dare to do anything else the most! The most! The most!"
