Looking at the four Gundams standing together in the hangar, Thor Kni thought to himself.
[Tim Ray, I've done right by your son Amuro Ray, haven't I? He was originally supposed to pilot the RX-78-2 Gundam Prototype in his destined future.
Now he'll be piloting the fully armored FA-78-2 heavy configuration Gundam instead. His survivability has greatly improved.
Though he wasn't going to die anyway, his future battle record would definitely be even better. Taking three Gundams from you isn't too much, right?
Oh yeah, my Gunpla collection +3.
And after I assimilated and modified Unit 4, with its high mobility, it could completely serve as my temporary personal machine.]
After completing the design and manufacturing of the Gundams' external armaments, Thor Kni spent all his spare time training. Improving his own strength was the top priority, after all.
During that time, he also made several large-scale supply purchases and filled his storage space to the brim.
His hoarder tendencies were on full display. If it wasn't full, he just didn't feel safe.
It was like back when he had downloaded a terabyte of adult games, yet had only actually played a few.
Most of them had just lain dormant on his hard drive, untouched to this day. He would never get the chance to play them again either. That was one of life's great tragedies.
During Thor Kni's training in the UC World, his soul power—that is, the strength of his soul—had increased considerably. It had not risen at all when he trained in the SEED World.
As his soul power rose, his Mental Power increased in tandem, while his qi also grew somewhat.
His soul power had risen to 24, and his Mental Power had increased to 480. He could now use the Concentration skill continuously for eight minutes;
His qi had increased to 920, and the duration for which he could continuously use qi had finally exceeded one minute.
Thor Kni asked the system how soul power increased, and the conclusion was:
Greater physical strength allowed one to contain more soul power. At the same time, soul power in the UC World was relatively active, making it beneficial for cultivation and easier to improve.
The various abilities displayed by NewTypes in the original anime also seemed like manifestations of soul power. After powerful NewTypes died, they drifted beside the NewTypes they cared about.
While alive, NewTypes could also see the souls of the dead.
At the end of September, UC0079, Thor Kni received an alert from the Nano DG Cells outside the colony.
Three Zaku IIs were outside the colony, and two of them were about to enter it.
Zaku II D-Class Unit Health: 1200 Energy: 180 Mobility: 45 Armor: 260 Terrain Adaptability: Sea - Land B Air - Space B Fixed Weapons: 120mm Machine Gun (500); Rocket launcher (1000); Heat Hawk (1200/5)
The plot was finally about to begin. He quickly arrived beside the transport vehicles storing the four Gundams.
He swiftly put away three of them, leaving only Unit 2 behind.
He then removed the long-range armaments, such as the Micro Missiles and Beam Cannons, and placed that equipment in another empty transport vehicle.
Just in case Amuro carelessly blew a hole in the colony like Kira.
If the colony was destroyed, he would be homeless for the next month, drifting through space.
Next, he had Nami create several hollow units that only had the appearance of mobile suits, without Reactor Cores.
They were packed with explosives. The moment a Zaku II attacked them, they would immediately explode.
He then quickly left the military base and prepared to secretly watch Gundam stand upon the earth from afar.
After all, if he got too close, he would not be able to withstand the power of a Zaku II's Minovsky reactor explosion.
Then the plot played out exactly as before. The transport vehicles containing the other three Gundams were directly hit in vital areas by the two Zaku IIs, exploding and being completely destroyed.
Only the vehicle carrying the RX-78-2 Gundam remained unharmed, and it had not even been attacked.
Before long, Amuro Ray climbed into the cockpit and piloted the Gundam, using its Head 60mm Vulcan Gun to force back one Zaku II.
Then he wielded the Beam Saber and began fighting the two Zaku IIs.
After only a few exchanges, one Zaku II had its cockpit pierced and blown apart by the Gundam's Beam Saber.
That Zaku II immediately exploded on the spot, and the explosion produced tremendous force.
Thor Kni, who was far away, was also affected by the blast wave. He inwardly complained nonstop that Amuro had no public conscience at all, randomly destroying the environment.
Soon, the other Zaku II was also destroyed by the Gundam piloted by Amuro Ray.
Only after the battle ended did the White Base warship appear.
Thor Kni began quietly leaving the vicinity of the base and found a place to hide.
He planned to spend the final month alone on the colony, training hard in Invincible Eastern Style Martial Arts.
After a month of ascetic training, Thor Kni's strength had not improved much.
However, his soul power had increased significantly again, rising to 36, while his qi increased to 1200.
His Invincible Eastern Style Martial Arts proficiency had risen to intermediate level. Its power was far greater than before, though its consumption had also increased.
(Intermediate Invincible Eastern Style Martial Arts: After activation, consumes 30 qi per second. Strength, Constitution, and Speed increase by 30, while weapons gain 300 Attack Power.)
What surprised Thor Kni most was that he had gained two additional Pilot Skills: NewType: LV1 and Space Spatial Sense LV1.
He had actually become a NewType. Although he was only Level 1, an NT was still an NT, no matter how weak.
(NewType: LV1, Passive: Hit Rate, evasion rate, reaction, and technique increase by 10%. Active: After activation, consumes 10 Mental Power per second. Perception increases by 10%, and the control range of remote weapons increases slightly; For every additional remote weapon, Mental Power consumption increases by 1 per second.)
This was an essential skill for using remote weapons. In other words, he would be able to pilot units equipped with funnel cannons and Psycho-Frames in the future.
Once he returned to the SEED World, piloting a unit equipped with the Dragoons System should not be a problem either.
He had also gained Space Spatial Sense LV1, which gave Thor Kni an even greater advantage when fighting in space while piloting mobile suits and MAs.
(Space Spatial Sense LV1: The user's adaptability to space and sense of direction increase by 10%, allowing them to more quickly perceive their position within space.)
