Watching the situation on the screen, Felix sensed all surrounding dangers through his intuition.
Dawn continuously evaded in the air.
While dodging, Dawn fired its Heavy Assault Machine Gun.
A bullet left the chamber.
Immediately followed by a second bullet.
The two bullets flew forward along different trajectories.
Boom!
A sound erupted from the new model fighter.
Thick smoke billowed from the aircraft.
The new model fighter's thrust severely decreased, completely unable to maintain altitude and maneuverability.
The pilot observed the situation, his gaze falling on Dawn. With one hand on the self-destruct program, a resolute expression appeared on his face.
His finger activated the self-destruct program.
The next moment, instead of charging toward Dawn, the pilot steered the fighter toward the ZAFT Forces in another direction.
Seeing this abnormal maneuver, Felix controlled Dawn to evade attacks coming from left and right. Dawn turned and raised its gun to fire.
The bullet left the barrel, Boom!
A loud explosion sounded, followed by an extremely violent blast.
After destroying this new model fighter, Dawn evaded to the left front.
Having dodged the attack, just as he was about to fire, Felix's intuition sensed danger approaching from behind. Felix executed controls, and Dawn evaded again.
Avoiding the attacks coming from this direction.
Felix raised his gun and fired.
Crack!
A gunshot echoed through the air.
The bullet left the chamber, racing forward at high speed.
Peloy saw the incoming bullet and maneuvered his fighter to evade.
Watching this evading fighter, Felix pulled the trigger, firing another shot.
After firing this shot, he controlled Dawn to evade.
The evading Dawn dodged bullets attacking from behind.
While turning, he saw this new model fighter charging at high speed in a suicide attack.
In the fighter cockpit, Bane opened communications, calling out to his comrade.
"Cover me!"
After this shout, Bane continued charging in his fighter.
Boom!
At this moment, an explosion occurred in the air.
The previous new model fighter was hit by the second bullet fired by Dawn, violently exploding mid-air.
Bane witnessed this explosion. Watching another comrade sacrifice himself, Bane's expression turned grave and filled with anger.
He pushed the thrust lever further forward!
The fighter's speed increased again.
Watching this accelerating fighter, Felix controlled Dawn to prepare for firing. His intuition again sensed danger, this time coming from multiple directions.
Surrounded by this sense of danger, Felix's brain rapidly calculated, finding a safe route amidst the encircling threats.
His hands moved quickly inside the cockpit.
Completing all actions in an extremely short time.
Commands processed through the quantum computer began to be executed by Dawn in sequence.
Dawn first dodged left forward in mid-air, then immediately shifted to dodging right forward, finally executing a series of maneuvers including aerial flips and rolls.
Through this continuous sequence of evasions, all attacks were avoided, allowing Felix to pilot Dawn out of their encirclement.
"What?"
"How did he manage to perform so many maneuvers in an instant?"
"Is he even human?"
Incredulous exclamations spilled from the pilots' lips.
They stared wide-eyed ahead, their minds replaying the extremely complex, multi-action yet seamlessly fluid operations. The aftertaste of it filled them with despair.
Having broken through the siege, Felix piloted Dawn toward the fighter that had just launched a charge.
"Cover me!"
Bane saw Dawn charging toward him.
While maneuvering his fighter to evade, he screamed for help from his comrades.
Hearing Bane's plea, the others controlled their fighters to assault Dawn.
Dawn dodged every attack, its gripped Heavy Sword descending heavily upon the fighter. The nose and fuselage were completely severed, both sections plummeting toward the ground simultaneously.
Dawn's Heavy Assault Machine Gun fired!
Bullets erupted from the barrel.
The falling nose section was instantly shredded by the gunfire, and Bane, still inside with no time to eject, perished instantly.
"Bastard!"
Witnessing Bane's death, Bernie's face contorted with rage as he snarled through gritted teeth. He immediately called out to his comrades!
"Cover me!"
With that, he piloted his new-model fighter in a death charge toward Felix.
Seeing this, the other pilots responded to Bernie's action, directing their fighters to unleash a frenzy of firepower at Dawn.
They suppressed Dawn's long-range attacks with a dense web of fire.
Inside Dawn's cockpit, facing such intense barrage, Felix—guided by his instincts and heightened senses—executed corresponding maneuvers.
Dawn weaved through the air in evasion.
While dodging, Felix's finger squeezed the trigger.
Bullets streaked toward a new-model fighter. Boom!
Boom!
Explosions rang out.
The new-model fighter Felix had targeted disintegrated in a mid-air blast.
After destroying that fighter, Felix turned his attention to the one charging toward him in a death rush. Without hesitation, Felix swiftly performed another maneuver.
Just as Dawn was about to open fire, his instincts flared again.
Sensing danger, Felix controlled Dawn to evade.
This attack was thwarted by the evasion.
Seeing the perfect opportunity his comrades had created for him, Bernie's expression turned resolute, yet a flicker of triumph crossed his face. He pushed his new-model fighter to even higher speeds.
Charging toward Dawn at an accelerated pace.
Under Bernie's fearless assault and his comrades' covering fire, Bernie finally closed in on Dawn.
With Dawn now within striking distance, Bernie didn't hesitate—he immediately activated the self-destruct program.
After initiating the self-destruct, Bernie reached for the ejection seat handle, intending to escape. But as he was about to pull it, he saw Dawn evading.
Instantly realizing that escaping now would mean certain mission failure, Bernie hardened his resolve.
Abandoning the ejection handle, he placed both hands back on the control stick, steering his fighter in pursuit of Dawn.
"Another one trying to take me down with them."
Observing the fighter jet's maneuvers, Felix recalled the two similar situations that had just occurred. Even without his intuition signaling danger, he knew this was another opponent determined to die with him.
He maneuvered the Dawn to evade this jet while dodging attacks from other directions.
During the evasive actions, Felix seized an opportunity.
The Heavy Assault Machine Gun in Dawn's hands fired instantly.
Bang!
The bullets pierced through the fighter jet's cockpit.
The next moment—Boom!
An explosion erupted in the sky, shattering the jet into countless fragments that rained down toward the ground.
Watching Bernie's failure, Maurice's expression turned grave as he issued a heavy command.
"Attack from multiple directions!"
