Elsewhere, Aerial is plugged into Quiet Zero, a massive space fortress which intercepts the Space Assembly League fleet. Deploying the Gundnodes to meet the League's own mobile suits, the unmanned drones easily overpower the League forces even before deploying their data storm field, paralyzing and completely wiping out the entire fleet. Watching a broadcast of the one-sided battle, Miorine breaks down in tears, again blaming herself for facilitating the weapon's completion. After Guston learns of the destruction as well, Earth House resolve to join Suletta, with Elan #5 -who had been eavesdropping the entire time- revealing himself and asking to join as well.

* RecruitTeenagersWithAttitude: Looking for a solution to Prospera's machination on the Space Assembly League's behalf, Guston turns to Suletta. He first asks if she could possibly talk Prospera down, which Suletta doesn't believe possible. Then he asks her to fight with Gundam Calibarn, as Suletta is the one best able to withstand the GUND Format at the intensities necessary to stand up to Quiet Zero, not to mention an excellent pilot even by adult standards. The rest of Earth House end up coming along with her.

* AttackDrone: The Gundnodes are this, similar to ''Anime/AfterWarGundamX''[='s=] G-BITS. They are highly mobile, armed with beam cannons with added beam machine guns and can link together to form a data storm sphere and obliterate their now-helpless opponents. The sphere suggests that there are hundreds of Gundnodes at this point.

** Quiet Zero essentially being a massive space fortress that can deploy an entire army of unmanned Mobile Suits which are all controlled by a central intelligence at its core is similar to [[Anime/GundamBuildDiversReRise Alus' moonbase.]] Quiet Zero's ability to shut down any Permet links caught in its data storm field also calls to mind [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 the Trial System]], which was used to shut down rogue Gundams or Innovade Mobile Suits connected to the Veda supercomputer.

The differences are their fate: the Lfrith Thorn got severely damaged though remained mostly intact but Norea is possibly fully vaporized by a beam weapon while the Zaku II Kai is fully destroyed and Bernie's remains are reduced to something similar to a "pile of hamburgers".

His only conditions are that he's allowed to go free afterwards and that he outright refuses to pilot a Gundam in the process.



* {{Irony}}: Prospera and Aerial uses Quiet Zero to disable the Space Assembly League's mobile suits much like how the Witch Hunters use their Antidote weapons against the Gundams.

And to top it all off, Miorine's entire motivation for going along with Prospera, betraying Suletta to keep her safe in a world without Gundams. Her actions and away from the conflict and Gundams, is rendered moot as the sequence of events have led to Suletta agreeing to pilot another --extraordinarily dangerous!-- Gundam that will put her life in danger and might kill her if so she confronts Lady can confront Prospera and Aerial.
