"Luck is also a kind of ability. Without your luck, you wouldn't be able to do the things you do. On the battlefield, you need not only ability but also luck. People without luck would have died long ago, let alone be in your current position."
Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment after listening to Old Man Raphael's words, but then nodded in agreement. "Mr. Raphael is right, luck is also a kind of strength. People without luck may be killed by stray bullets flying from somewhere, even if they are strong."
Xiao Ran said, but what he was thinking about was that in Gundam SEED World, during the battle in the desert, he was pierced by various debris into his body, but if he was unlucky and Luo Fen hadn't saved him regardless of his own life, he would have died. The same is true in Super Dimension Fortress Frontier. At that time, I was trapped by Heavyarms Gundam. I was unlucky and had no one to support me. I'm afraid I was also in trouble at that time.
When he came to Prometheus, almost all the worlds he entered were worlds he was familiar with or even had knowledge of. This could no longer be explained simply by good luck. If it were another world, it was still unclear whether Xiao Ran could have made it to this point. And among the participants who died in each world, was there really no one who was not capable enough?
No, every participant is stronger than Xiao Ran, but in the end Xiao Ran became the biggest winner. It was precisely because they were unlucky to meet Xiao Ran, and Xiao Ran was very lucky to meet them, participants who had no idea about the plot at all.
Old Man Raphael nodded, turned to look at Black Astray who was parked on the deck and squinted his eyes slightly, letting him look more carefully. "This is the machine built by your own family mentioned in the report, right?"
"That's right." Xiao Ran also turned to look at Black Astray and introduced, "The machine name is Astray, but because the paint is black, I prefer to call it Black Astray."
"It seems like a pure beam weapon is used?" Raphael said clearly.
"Yeah." Xiao Ran responded, not hiding anything. "It uses two beam weapons, two Beam Cannon on the backpack, a total of four. The weapon is Beam Saber. Unlike the flag-type vibration Dagger, it does not have a high-shock function."
"What about energy?" Raphael asked strangely, "If it is a general energy source, it cannot support such an output power, right?"
Xiao Ran glanced at Old Man Raphael, shrugged and said, "In terms of energy..."
Speaking of this, Xiao Ran suddenly thought of a question. The energy source of the captured MK-II Gundam was undoubtedly UC System's Nuclear Engine. This immediately made him a little frightened, but there was no change in the expression on his face. He kept talking without blushing. "The energy used is three High-Energy Battery Pack, which is enough to fight."
Old Man Raphael continued to ask, "What about energy replenishment?"
"Using the current MS Standard Universal Interface can replenish energy for the body."
Xiao Ran was answering Old Man Raphael's question while thinking, "MK-II's Energy System must not fall into the hands of UNION, otherwise it will definitely be a huge threat to Tianren. If they push back the nuclear bomb from the energy source, Tianren will be finished."
"What should I do?" Xiao Ran kept a smile on his face, but he was very anxious in his heart. "We must find a way to solve this matter. How should we do it?"
"High-Energy Battery Pack." Old Man Raphael said thoughtfully to Xiao Ran: "Can you give me the body for study? Don't worry, I won't dismantle your body."
Xiao Ran was about to nod, but was stunned for a moment when he looked at Old Man Raphael's face. A warm smile appeared on his face, "Of course there is no problem. Mr. Raphael can look at it however he wants and study it however he wants. It doesn't matter even if you dismantle the body. I will never blame Mr. Raphael in the slightest."
Old Man Raphael looked at the enthusiastic smile on Xiao Ran's face, and was stunned for a moment when he heard Xiao Ran's incredibly passionate words. Billy, who was supporting Raphael, suddenly rolled his eyes and seemed to understand what Xiao Ran wanted to do.
Xiao Ran enthusiastically supported Old Man Raphael, and while talking, he led Old Man Raphael towards his office. "Come on, come on, I happen to have a lot of things to ask Mr. Raphael, especially technical matters. There were many problems in manufacturing this machine at that time."
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he turned to look at Graham and Billy, gave them a look, and said, "Graham, Billy, just greet the others. It's getting late today. If you have anything to do tomorrow,"
Graham and Billy looked at each other. Both sides saw the helplessness in the other's eyes and saluted Xiao Ran: "Yes, General."
Xiao Ran helped Raphael enter the office and closed the door directly. Old Man Raphael seemed quite comfortable. He found a place to sit down. After Xiao Ran closed the door and walked in, he looked at Xiao Ran with a smile and asked, "You have something you want to tell me alone."
Xiao Ran chuckled, took off his mask and put it on the table, saying, "I really can't hide it from Mr. Raphael. It's really hard for me to tell you about the situation just now."
Old Man Raphael nodded. "Tell me."
Xiao Ran took a deep breath and said, "Then let me tell you directly. Regarding the intact captured body, I hope Mr. Raphael can conceal the true condition of the body."
"Why?" Old Man Raphael stared at Xiao Ran with both eyes.
Xiao Ran looked at Old Man Raphael without giving in, "Because neither I nor you will ever want this world to be shrouded under Nuclear Shadow again!"
Old Man Raphael's eyes suddenly widened, and his hands on the crutches tightened again. "You mean, that machine could be Nuclear Energy!?"
"It's not possible, but definitely." Xiao Ran nodded heavily and said, "Even if it is my Black Astray, I will not hide it from you Mr. Raphael. The energy used is nuclear energy."
Mr. Raphael shook his head in disbelief. "How is this possible? Nuclear Technology was completely eliminated many years ago, and Nuclear Technology was also completely sealed. Why would a mobile suit using nuclear energy appear today after so many years, and it is also a micro-stabilized and usable clean energy source? Technically speaking, this makes no sense at all."
Xiao Ran just said, "There will always be some people who will study this kind of thing for the sake of ideals and progress."
Raphael thought for a while, and suddenly realized something was wrong, and his eyes became sharp. "No, who are you? Even if it is nuclear energy, since you already have stabilization and miniaturization technology, there is no reason why you should not take these things out and give them to UNION, or even take them out yourself in exchange for benefits. Why should you hide them? What is your purpose!"
"Jiang is really old. I didn't want to hide it from you Mr. Raphael, because I think Mr. Raphael has seen too many things and seen through too much at his age. Maybe he will have the same ideals and goals as me." Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and gently He took a breath, and after a minute of silence, he slowly said, "It's true that I am a newly promoted major general of UNION, but I am also a member of a private armed organization, because once nuclear energy is developed, it is likely to pose a threat to the private armed organizations behind me, and even the entire world, so I must hide it."
Xiao Ran looked at Old Man Raphael, stretched out his hand to signal him not to worry, and said to himself, "The organization I am in is called Tianren. It was an organization founded by Aeolia. Shohanback, the greatest scientist two hundred years ago. And to this day, after two hundred years of development, this organization has completely surpassed the power of all countries on the earth. It includes a brand-new, non-polluting energy source. This energy is not nuclear energy, but another kind of thing."
"And your disciples, as well as our army's ace Graham Aika, also joined because of the same ideals and goals."
"Billy? Graham?" Old Man Raphael opened his mouth wide.
"Our goal is not to use our technology to occupy the world, but to transfer the world's contradictions and hostility to us, and use our power to fight against the entire world and force the world to achieve peace."
"If you want to ask what the purpose of doing this is and what benefit it will bring to us." Xiao Ran paused here and said with emphasis, "Because the world is about to face the real Alien Lifeforms, and soon, these Alien Lifeforms will When humans come to Earth, if they are not truly unified but are united under the pressure of Alien Lifeforms, then even if they defeat these Alien Lifeforms, even if humans set foot in the universe, it will only trigger another one hundred, two hundred, or even thousands of years of war until humankind is extinct."
Old Man Raphael kept listening to what Xiao Ran said. It wasn't until Xiao Ran finished speaking that Old Man Raphael shook his head, "I don't believe what you said."
"Although you don't believe me just by talking, what if I put the evidence in front of you?" Xiao Ran smiled slightly and said, "What if I put the real Alien Lifeforms in front of you? Or what if I let you talk to Aeolia in person?"
"How is this possible? He has been dead for two hundred years. Do you want him to be resurrected and appear in front of me?" Old Man Raphael glanced at Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran said slowly, "History is just history. People who die do not necessarily really die. They can survive in another way."
Old Man Raphael frowned and looked at Xiao Ran: "Then what is the purpose of telling me these things? Invite me to join your organization?"
"Yes, because an uncontrollable accident occurred in this world, this organization must establish a new organization to deal with this accident." Xiao Ran nodded and said, "Just like these machines that appeared today, do you still think which country and force developed these machines?"
