"Although the two backpacks are of the same model and can be used as support aircraft, the backpack used by this Black Astray is completely different from the backpack used by your body after modification. In terms of independent combat capabilities and endurance after leaving the body, there is almost no comparison."
"The backpack used by your machine is more important for auxiliary functions. It enhances the fire suppression that the machine itself lacks, and gives the machine the ability to fly in the atmosphere. It is sometimes used for interference. However, the backpack of this machine is not completely like this. Although it also has the same cannon and Gatling cannon, this backpack is more focused on increasing the speed and energy supply of the machine."
"The modified backpack can increase the speed of the machine itself to a terrifying level. This speed is not something that the backpack you are using can bring."
"In general, the backpack used by your body and the backpack used by this body have similar functions and look almost the same. But just like cars manufactured by the same manufacturer, there will always be a difference between standard configuration and luxury configuration. Although I am embarrassed to say it, the backpack of Justice Gundam is only standard configuration, while the backpack used by this body is luxury configuration."
Xiao Ran smiled slightly and thought to himself, "The two heats and Energy Source Engine are put on a backpack, and with the propulsion of Solar Furnace, if the speed is fully opened, it really is not Justice Gundam The only thing that compares to is that if it goes too fast, the frame of Black Astray cannot hold it in the atmosphere. However, after Lightning Aegis deforms, you can try to see if it can escape the atmosphere alone."
Athrun was stunned for a moment, looking at Xiao Ran with eyes full of doubts. He even thought that there was someone from Xiao Ran in ZAFT's development department, and even leaked a lot of secrets and technologies to Xiao Ran.
However, Athrun did not ask, and Xiao Ran would not say anything more. Kira took the initiative to explain, "I believe that the place where the teacher got this thing is definitely not ZAFT or PLANT, because if the teacher had thought about it, you would not be driving Justice Gundam here today."
When Athrun heard Kira's words, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded, "Mr. Xiao was also in PLANT at the beginning. It is indeed as Kira said. If Mr. Xiao wanted to, Lacus would definitely give Justice Gundam to him."
"That kind of machine is not suitable for me." Xiao Ran said, and also glanced at Athrun with a smile, "But the machine was exploded by someone like a bomb. After repairing it, I feel that it is quite easy to use."
Athrun glanced at Kira and smiled bitterly again. He didn't know what was going on at first, but he went to fight Kira like crazy. Now when he thinks about Athrun, he is still a little scared.
Graham, who had already sat in the cockpit of Black Astray and was preparing to attack, suddenly opened the cockpit and stuck out his head. He shouted at the place where Xiao Ran was, "Sir, I'm afraid I have to go change alone." It is unlikely that Black Hawk will come back. Black Hawk has detected the dispatch of MS Unit of the enemy fleet, and Haro has already sent the information back. "
At this moment, a soldier ran up to Xiao Ran and whispered a few words. After listening to what the soldier said, Xiao Ran nodded. "Let them wait for me for a while, go find Director Symonds, and start the evacuation of all the last personnel."
The soldier nodded and left quickly. Xiao Ran glanced at the people around him who also showed solemn expressions, and nodded to a few people. "Earth Force probably discovered that our defense line has been withdrawn. Let's attack, regardless of whether the other party is testing the attack. Or for other purposes, we must attract the enemy to the vicinity of the main island, and must not let the battle spread to the main island, and stop them to buy the final time for the launch preparation of the three warships. If possible, it is best to repel this Earth Force attack again."
Kira, Nicol, and Dearka nodded and ran quickly towards their own bodies. Athrun also hesitated for less than a few seconds, nodded firmly to Xiao Ran, and turned around to follow Kira.
Xiao Ran watched several people leave, and shouted to Graham and Naluo: "As I said just now, keep the enemy out, send a message to Haro, and let it come back with Black Hawk. If the situation permits, I will join the battle."
"Roger that."
After getting the answers from the two people, Xiao Ran also walked quickly towards the outside of the factory. As soon as he walked out of the factory door, he saw a family of four people looking around uneasily. Looking at the familiar young face in his memory, Xiao Ran paused and walked directly over.
At this time, Athrun had just stepped on the lifting rope of Justice Gundam. When he saw Xiao Ran walking towards the family that he almost bumped into when he came out, he also paid attention. He focused on Xiao Ran until he got into the cockpit of Justice Gundam. He didn't forget to expand the screen and took a look at the five people including Xiao Ran.
But just after looking at it, he activated Justice Gundam and Freedom Gundam and flew into the sky together.
Xiao Ran walked in front of the Asuka family, glanced at Lightning Aegis who had loaded up the car and left not far away, then smiled slightly at Zhen. Asuka's father and stretched out his right hand. "Hello Mr. Asuka, I am Orb's current operations commander, Major General Xiao Ran, takes the liberty of bringing you to this place at this time, but he has no choice but to do so because he needs your help for some things. However, compared to other places, I think it is safer to follow us."
The real father glanced at Xiao Ran with some embarrassment, stretched out his hand to shake Xiao Ran, and asked in confusion, "Hello General Xiao, our family is just ordinary people, where can we help get General Xiao."
"No, it's not me who needs help, but this country Orb, and what I value is not the present, but the future." Xiao Ran glanced at Zhen. Asuka who was looking at him curiously with his own red eyes, and smiled slightly, "Please come with me, this is not the place to talk."
Xiao Ran led the family of four into the previous factory, which happened to be the time when several machines in the factory began to attack. As soon as Zhen entered the factory, he was attracted by the huge steel giants in the factory. His sister Mayu also covered her hands and made a wow sound.
Looking at the expressions of the two brothers and sisters, Xiao Ran also showed a smile on his lips again, and then said to the two brothers and sisters, "How does it feel to be in such close contact for the first time?"
Mayu quickly answered, "It feels so amazing. I have seen them on the news before, but they are completely different from when I saw them with my own eyes."
And Zhen. Asuka glanced at his sister and nodded to Xiao Ran, but also asked, "Is this going to start fighting again?"
"That's right." Xiao Ran nodded slightly, glanced at the Asuka couple, and said, "Earth Force fleet has launched an attack again. They need to buy some time for the evacuated people and us."
Mayu looked at Xiao Ran with a puzzled face, a very dissatisfied expression written on his young face, "But wasn't the previous battle already won? Why is Earth Force still attacking us, and why do we have to leave Orb?"
"Because Orb has something they fear and desire. They are afraid of Orb's firm concept of peace and will never let the world become only two colors and endless war. They also long for the advanced technology and Mass Accelerator brought by Orb's peace, so they want to eliminate Orb and rob Orb's things."
Xiao Ran squatted down and touched Mayu's head, and said with a smile, "I asked you to leave precisely because I was afraid that Earth Force would hurt you, people like you who are willing to believe in Orb's concept of peace and live in Orb. The previous victory was just to buy time for the people of Orb to evacuate, but unfortunately there is not enough time."
"Then beat them back!" Mayu squeezed his fist and waved it. Xiao Ran also smiled when he saw it, stood up and said to the Asuka couple, "Orb's The idea is peace, and we will not flinch even if we fight to uphold this idea, but if Orb causes harm to ordinary people like you because of his adherence to the idea, that is not what we want to see."
"So we issued an order to evacuate the people from the beginning, and in order to prevent the city where the people originally lived from being affected by the fighting, we took the initiative to withdraw the defense lines on the main island and attract the war to the main island. This way, Earth Force can occupy the city without firing a shot, and will not cause any damage to the city."
"But as long as Representative Asaha leads Orb, and Earth Force does not occupy Akatsuki Works and Mass Accelerator, then this war against Orb will not stop for a day." Xiao Ran said this, paused slightly, and then said, "So we Orb Defense Force will gather the last strength to evacuate Orb and go to the universe, retaining the fire that allows Orb to be reborn from the ashes. Representative Asaha will stay on the island for the sake of Orb's ideals, and will accompany Akatsuki Works and Mass Accelerator... rather than surrender for the sake of peace."
Mrs. Asuka immediately covered his mouth, his eyes widened in disbelief. Mr. Asuka said in great surprise, "Asaha represents him... how is this possible?"
"The Asaha representative and I both agree that the goal of Earth Force is Akatsuki Works and Mass Accelerator on this island, so as long as these two things no longer exist, and the Asaha representative who is a thorn in the side of Earth Force also dies, then Orb will no longer have any meaning to Earth Force, and it won't be long before you can return to your home and resume your normal life."
"Asaha means that in order to protect ordinary people like us, he actually wants to sacrifice his life?" Mr. Asuka shook his head in disbelief, opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. There have always been people with low status because of people with high status. And sacrifice, but in Orb, it was the other way around. The leader of a country was actually willing to sacrifice himself for people like them who were nothing at all. This made Mr. Asuka and Mrs. Asuka feel that they had been greatly shocked.
A few minutes later, Mr. Asuka raised his head, with a complex expression on his face, but also doubts. "So General Xiao, why did you ask us to come here?"
"For the future of Orb, a longer-term future." Xiao Ran said solemnly, his eyes also focused on Zhen: "I, or Orb, hope to use the power of your young master and young lady to bring peace and strength to Orb one day in the future."
"Me!?" Zhen pointed at himself in astonishment, and the Asuka couple also turned to look at their son in astonishment.
"That's right." Xiao Ran nodded and said, "You have a special power. This power is only possessed by a few people in this world. And everyone who possesses this power will determine the direction of the world in the future. Two of them are the two pilots you saw running outside just now, Freedom Gundam's pilot Kira. Yamato, who saved hundreds of thousands of lives in Alaska, and Justice Gundam's pilot Athrun. Sala, currently the son of PLANT Chairman Zala."
"In addition, there are PLNAT princesses Lacus, and Orb Princess Cagalli."
Zhen blinked his eyes. Hearing that he could be compared with these incredible guys, the young man felt a little erratic. "Do I really have this kind of power? Then why have I never felt it?"
"Haha." Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Because you haven't developed this power yet, but one day, you will understand what this power will bring you."
Mr. Asuka looked at his son, then at Xiao Ran, and felt that there was no need for Xiao Ran, a high-ranking general, to make fun of their family. He asked with some confusion, "Then General Xiao, what are you going to let Zhen do?"
"Become a pilot." Xiao Ran looked at Mr. Asuka and said directly without any concealment, "I need him to go to PLANT, join ZAFT, and become a ZAFT pilot. When Orb faces war again, that's when he becomes Orb's hero."
"No!" Mrs. Asuka shook his head directly, hugged Zhen tightly, and looked at Xiao Ran with wary eyes. "I will never let my son leave, let alone join the army, or go to ZAFT to join the army like a spy!"
"Madam, this may be hard to accept, but there is no need to be a spy to join ZAFT. There is no need for him to deliver any news. If he joins ZAFT, he only needs to do what he should do." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "Just if one day, Orb Z Z may be attacked by ZAFT, and at that time Zhen should have unlocked his own power and gained enough power to protect Orb. If he is willing to fight for Orb, he will be the hero of Orb, and even the hero of this world."
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Asuka's determined eyes, shook his head slightly and looked at Zhen: "Zhen, what I just said, are you willing?"
Chapter 2 will come later.
