Mi Lai didn't know whether Xiao Ran was telling the truth or a lie. He said it was a lie, but Xiao Ran looked so indifferent. He felt like he was swearing at the first glance. He said it was true, but Xiao Ran's words were so indifferent. The information revealed in the moment is really too shocking and terrifying. As long as a little bit is revealed, their ship will immediately become the target of both Earth Federation and Zeon Army, and it will instantly be involved in the center of the battle between the two forces.
Among the three girls, Mi Lai's thoughts are mature. She can think of more things than Artesia and Frau. She also knows that she has no other choice but to join. She has no choice but to smile bitterly in her heart.
Xiao Ran looked at the three of them and clapped his hands gently. "We still have nearly two hours. You can familiarize yourself with the work of the bridge here to avoid being in a hurry during the battle."
As soon as Xiao Ran finished speaking, Captain Jeffrey took over. "Monica, I'll leave the three of them to you."
"Okay, Captain." The orange-haired girl in Bridge Trio smiled and nodded, while Monica also admired Captain Jeffrey in her heart. After Captain Jeffrey finished speaking, he responded and walked towards Artesia.
Monica smiled slightly and looked gentle and easy to talk to. Compared to Xiao Ran, in the eyes of the three girls, Monica also seemed easier to get along with.
While Monica was taking the three of them to get familiar with the equipment on the bridge, Xiao Ran also looked at the people at Skull Squadron, Zechs and Naluo, starting from Ozma At first, after looking at several people one by one, Xiao Ran groaned and spoke slowly, "Currently, it is certain that six units have been obtained. In order to ensure that the six units can exert their maximum combat power, priority will be given to pilots who are currently unaffected."
What Xiao Ran said about not being affected is naturally referring to the weakening of Prometheus. Among the current team, Naluo, El-Elf, Zechs, Saki Maski, including Xiao Ran, are not in the most perfect condition. But several members of Skull Squadron are different. They joined Mission World as newcomers, and their attributes have not been suppressed in any way. Instead, due to their own talents, after being digitized by Prometheus, each of them has been enhanced a lot due to digitization. The most direct one is the direct manifestation of skills.
Among the five people of Skull Squadron, Ozma and Piloting Skill of Brera are of course the best two, followed closely by Art and Michel, and finally Luca is responsible for assisting in the investigation.
The decision to let Saki Maski pilot the Gundam was just to ensure safety. El-Elf was not a suitable pilot, so it was necessary to replace the two and select someone else to take over.
Xiao Ran thought about it for a moment. The total of six units was just enough for Skull Squadron and the six of him. But he had to think about who would pilot which unit. He glanced at Alt, then at Ozma, Xiao Ran nodded and said, "I will pilot one of the six machines myself. Art, Brera, you will take over the machines of El-Elf and Saki Maski."
Xiao Ran makes the current Piloting Skill slightly inferior to Alt's Gundam driver Ozma. This is also because Alt is more impulsive when fighting. Driving the Gundam is more secure in terms of safety. Brera's driving style is also quite radical. In addition to safety, combat effectiveness can be greatly guaranteed when driving the Gundam in a sudden and strafing combat style.
As for Ozma, it is more stable than young people. Even when driving Zaku II, there is no problem as long as you are careful. And now, there is only one Zaku II that can be used directly.
As for Little Shota Luca, Xiao Ran felt that it would be safest for him to stay on the bridge. In addition, Xiao Ran had already predicted that a Guncannon would appear and was ready to be driven by Sniper Type's professional Michel. The general arrangement was like this. After the remaining two Zakus are repaired, Xiao Ran is going to hand one of them to Zechs, and the remaining one will be driven by Naluo.
In fact, Xiao Ran doesn't have to drive the Gundam. He wants to hand over all three Zakus to new people to drive. However, with the current performance of Zaku II, it is difficult to really display it. The full strength of Xiao Ran is the same even if it can exert 120% of the performance of Zaku II, so there is nothing you can do about driving a Gundam with C-class mecha.
"If we can find a suitable place to modify the body, we won't have to worry so much. Forget it, if we are careful and can go to the moon, all these problems can be solved." Xiao Ran shook his head and continued, "Of the remaining three bodies, currently There is only one machine that can be put into use immediately, Ozma. This machine is left to you to drive, but please note that the performance of this machine Zaku II is not comparable to that of the machine we are driving. You are more stable than them, so be careful when fighting."
"I know." Ozma didn't feel there was anything bad about piloting a worse machine. As a captain, he naturally needs to think more about his teammates. Instead, Art was stunned for a moment and wanted to open his mouth to let his machine out, but was gently pulled by Michel beside him and shook his head at him.
Michel also saw Xiao Ran's movements. He smiled and said to Michel, "Michel, I estimate that I will get a bombardment type machine in the future. Although it is somewhat different from the Sniper Type machine that you are good at driving, I think there should be no problem if you just make do with it."
Michel pushed up his glasses and showed a charming smile, "To me, any machine is the same as long as it has a gun."
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "If the last two units are repaired, Zechs, Naluo, you can each drive one."
"Yes." Zechs and Naluo responded simply, and Xiao Ran said to the last Luca after they received the reply, "Luca, you don't need to join in the frontal battle, but you also need to share the firepower control of the battleship. The side firepower and bottom firepower of this battleship are very weak, and manual operation is often required to achieve better results."
"I know." Luka pouted and nodded. His cute look made Mi Lai on the other side stunned. "Is such a young child already on the battlefield?"
Monica smiled slightly, "Don't underestimate him, he is a qualified warrior and is very good at battlefield reconnaissance."
Mi Lai was stunned for a moment and said in confusion, "Have you all been trained since childhood?"
"How is that possible?" Monica covered his mouth and smiled, shook his head slightly and said, "We all have our own normal lives, and we joined here for our own reasons. Don't think of us as the kind of people who have been trained and indoctrinated into evil ideas since childhood."
"Sorry." Milai smiled apologetically at Monica, turned to look at the steering wheel of the ship, and asked, "My future job is to control this battleship, right? But why don't you have a helmsman if you have so many people?"
Monica did not hide anything from Mi Lai, but he did not tell her too much in detail, "It's not that there is nothing, but our helmsman is performing other tasks, and he is also a very powerful person. Well, don't ask me more questions. I can't tell you more without permission."
"I understand." Mi Lai nodded.
On the other side, Xiao Ran is also talking to Naluo: "Naluo, you choose someone from your side, preferably someone who volunteers to be the helmsman. From now on, he will work on the bridge and learn to control the ship from Miss Milai."
"Okay, I'll go take a look soon."
After the arrangements were completed, Xiao Ran also asked everyone to take a good rest and then left the bridge and went to Gnakuri where the Gundam was parked. He turned over and sat in the cockpit and began to check all the data on the body. A qualified pilot must have the most knowledge about his own body. Xiao Ran had not checked the system and data of the body before, also because of lack of time. Now there is still more than an hour, and Xiao Ran also happens to be really familiar with this black Gundam.
After Xiao Ran left, everyone in Skull Squadron also left. Only Ozma stayed on the bridge. Naluo wanted to find his own people and choose a suitable person to decide his future development direction. Zechs also left the bridge alone.
Bridge Trio was happy to hear that they could rest and left one by one. Girls always have to think more, including choosing their own room in the battleship, so they left with the three newcomers and began to hang out in Living Zone. While getting familiar with the structure of the battleship itself, they quickly assigned their own rooms.
In the end, Mi Lai and Artesia were assigned a double room, and Monica lived in the same room with Frau. After everyone else left to clean up their own rooms, Mi Lai and Artesia were also busy in their rooms. At first, they didn't talk much, but it didn't take long for Mi Lai to put down his work, sit on the bed and look at Artesia.
"Um... can I call you Artesia? Now that I know your real name, I still feel a little uncomfortable calling you that name."
Artesia turned around and nodded to Mi Lai: "Of course, this is not Earth Federation or Zeon. It doesn't matter what name you call me."
Mi Lai nodded slightly, remained silent for a while and asked, "Do you believe what Alex said?"
"I don't know either." Artesia hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head. "What he said is terrible. If it is true, it would be even more terrible. The whole world has been deceived and deceived by the privileged class of Earth Federation. No one has discovered this deception for so many years."
"But whether it's true or not, we have no possibility of retreating. We either join them or are locked up by them. What else can we do except believe in us." Artesia also sat down and sighed slightly, "I just don't know them... No, it's about how many people there are in our organization and what kind of forces are standing behind us. It may be inevitable to fight against Earth Federation, but in the end, whether we can resist the pressure of Earth Federation is the most important."
"Yes, knowing so many things, there is no way we can quit." Milai also shook his head, and after looking at Artesia, he said, "But it's really hard to believe that you are the daughter of Daiken family, the founder of Zeon, and you ended up living in this place. It's really unbelievable. Do you still remember what happened at that time?"
Artesia lowered his head and shook it gently. "This happened a long, long time ago. The current Zeon is the Zeon controlled by Zabi family, not the Zeon in my father's mind. Moreover, so many years have passed since then, and I don't remember many things clearly."
It's not that she can't remember clearly. Even though she was still young at that time, how could Artesia not remember such an important period of fate change? It's that all of this has passed too long for her and she doesn't want to remember it anymore.
Mi Lai saw Artesia's appearance and knew that Artesia was unwilling to continue this topic, so he changed the topic. "Well, Mr. Alex said, your brother is Crimson Comet Do you agree with this incident about Char? It's really hard to imagine that the famous Crimson Comet is actually the eldest son of Daiken family. Didn't the news say that your brother has been assassinated and passed away?"
"No, I feel that my brother is still alive!" Char said, Artesia seemed a little impulsive, but after reacting, he still smiled apologetically at Mi Lai: "I believe it, because just like What Mr. Alex said is that this kind of lie cannot last forever. Since my brother has joined this organization, I have been looking for him. If I don't join this organization, I don't know when I will see my brother, so this is the reason why I join."
"I believe that even if you have heard so many things that you shouldn't have heard, it will not be the reason why you really joined this organization. I think you also want to see changes in the world, right?"
Mi Lai looked at the ceiling. "Maybe."
An hour passed quickly, and El-Elf also carried three Zaku back. In addition to Zaku, there was one Xiao Ran, the expected Guncannon, and one Earth Force's new model Guntank was also within the scope of transportation. Guntank was sent directly to the third garbage warehouse under the arrangement of Xiao Ran, and Guncannon was squeezed into the garbage warehouse where two Zakus were placed.
Because MSs were transported first, there was an obvious lag in supplies and ammunition. Finally, when the scheduled time with Char arrived, the ammunition and supplies had only replenished half of the full load of White Base, and a Zaku II had already rushed in from the entrance of Spaceport.
