When Xiao Ran took Stella and the three of them into Orb, he did not put on the mask he always wore. A masked person walking on the street of Orb would attract more people's attention. However, if Xiao Ran just walked to the street like this, it would be inevitable to be surrounded by onlookers.
Although Xiao Ran has not appeared in Orb for two years in this world, photos of Xiao Ran can be seen everywhere, especially now that most civilians in Orb are opposed to Cagalli. Even if there are no photos, Xiao Ran is still considered Everyone knows that there is no one in the entire Orb who does not know Xiao Ran, not to mention that a statue of Xiao Ran still stands on the main island of Orb. If he really goes out without any cover-up, the news of his return will definitely spread to the entire Orb in a short time.
So Xiao Ran still found a mask and put it on his face. Compared with masks, masks are more common and extremely ordinary. They are often used for allergies, colds and illnesses. At the same time, they can also play the same role as masks, covering up.
When Xiao Ran and the four of them entered Orb, the roadside news had already broadcast the news that Earth Force's fleet appeared outside Orb's territorial waters, and Orb currently did not have any notifications or alarms. This Orb is enveloped in an atmosphere of dullness, worry and fear, more of which is confusion about the present and the future, and awe of war. Groups of people gather in front of different billboards in the Orb city, watching everything broadcast on the news in silence.
And Xiao Ran also stood in the crowd with a mask that made it impossible for anyone to recognize him, watching all this. Behind him stood Stella, Orro and Sting like guards. However, compared to Xiao Ran's calmness, the three of them seemed a little bored.
After listening to the voice on the news, Xiao Ran shook his head and turned to the three people and said, "You can move around freely, but remember not to cause trouble. It is ten o'clock in the morning. We will meet here at ten o'clock in the evening."
Orro nodded excitedly. "I know Neo, don't worry, we will never cause trouble."
Xiao Ran nodded, rubbed Stella's hair, and said, "Follow Sting and Orro and have a good rest. I will pick you up in the evening."
"Yeah." Stella also smiled brightly. After Xiao Ran nodded to the three of them, he turned and left the place where at least a hundred people gathered. After walking out of the crowd, he looked around, finally chose a direction and drove away.
Orb is an island country. The entire territory on the earth is composed of large and small islands, and the scope of the territorial sea is also not large, so you can stand on the coastline and witness everything happening on the sea at this time. But when Xiao Ran drove to the edge of the island, he found that the coastline had basically been blocked. And Orb news media, large and small, have followed the blockade and pulled out a long line, and various news trucks are parked everywhere. In addition to the news trucks, there are also many Orb citizens who drove to this place in person, making it impossible for the Xiao Ran who were driving to get through, so they could only leave the car and continue on foot.
At this moment, an exclamation suddenly sounded from the dense crowd, and then many people were heard shouting that a ship was coming out and the fleet was dispatched.
Hearing the shouting ringing in his ears, Xiao Ran also raised his eyebrows slightly and looked up. However, except for countless people gathered in a long row of dense crowds and the back of their heads, it was really difficult to see more of the situation on the coastline. If you want to see clearly where to go What happened? Either let yourself stand further inside, or let yourself stand higher. It is impossible to stand further inside and look like this. Everyone is drilling in, so Xiao Ran can only have the second choice, stand higher.
But when I looked up, I saw that many nearby vehicles were also full of people, and many of the surrounding big trees were almost full of people. Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran also shrugged helplessly, pushed the people in front of him, and with some difficulty got in front of a news vehicle. He jumped up and stood on the roof of the vehicle with a little effort.
The news truck was already high, and Xiao Ran could now stand high and see far. He could clearly see everything happening on the sea. At this time, Minerva had come out of the port, followed by a fleet of Orb navy, and in front was who was already ready to intercept. The Earth Force fleet, the Orb and Earth Force fleets completely sandwiched Minerva, and based on the current situation, it is impossible to see whether the Earth Force fleet has any other preparations besides the ordinary Windam.
Of course, Xiao Ran naturally knows that the Alliance has invested a new type of space-space dual-use in this battle, with a large MA that can block Minerva Positron Cannon. What Xiao Ran is really concerned about is whether any participants from the Alliance will join the battle.
Looking around, Xiao Ran arranged for Eshe and the four of them to help Minerva leave Orb, but at this time the four of them must have hidden themselves. After appearing, the only thing that can be determined is that the four of them are definitely not too far away from Minerva, but it is really unclear where Xiao Ran is hiding, but it is most likely that they are hiding under the sea.
When Minerva was gradually forced out of the territorial waters by Orb's fleet, a battle between a ZAFT warship and a combined fleet also began. In the original plot, Xiao Ran seemed to remember that this time the combined combat forces did not send too many There are many MSs, but what is happening in front of us is not like this. Not only did the alliance directly send out new MAs, but they also sent out a lot of MSs. The number was definitely more than 20, if not thirty. Compared with the three MSs that can currently be used on Minerva, the combat power can be said to be several times more.
How many times the combat power is used to deal with three mobile suits on a battleship, this also seems to illustrate Earth Force's inevitable attitude towards Minerva. From the current position of Xiao Ran from the battlefield, you can see beams of light flying in the distant sky. MSs coming and going, and countless splashes caused by cannonballs, but judging from the current situation Minerva is already at an absolute disadvantage, because except for Impulse Gundam, the two Zakus on Minerva have no ability to fly at all, and the MS sent by the United side all have such capabilities. One side can only passively defend, while the other side has great strategic detours. The outcome of this battle seems to be predictable.
And everything that happened next was almost what happened in Xiao Ran's memory. Minerva used Positron Cannon Taurus on the Federal Army fleet., but in the end it was completely blocked by the MA that didn't seem to have much effect at all. Apart from a burst of water mist that could not be dissipated for a long time, Earth Force did not even suffer any damage.
The participants that Xiao Ran expected to appear did not appear in the battle. Everything was proceeding according to the established trajectory without much change. When Impulse Gundam was trapped by Earth Force's MA, the bodies of Eshe and four other people also broke through the sea from below the sea and flew into the sky.
The four machines are all G Series machines. Although they are different from the G-series machines in this world, each one has its own characteristics, but you can still see some of the characteristics of Strike Gundam, and each of these machines has its own characteristics. Each one has the ability to fly, and it will directly cause the United to lose a lot of mobile suits as soon as it appears, and Impulse Gundam seems to have suddenly gone berserk, directly killing the mobile suit with strong defense, and rushed to Earth Force's battleship.
The battle has continued like this, and it can be said that the victory of Minerva has been established. Impulse Gundam, which jumped on top of the Earth Force battleship, has the possibility of attacking freely. However, for Earth Force's mobile suit, it not only has to guard against the four machines that suddenly appeared, but it is also unable to attack Impulse Gundam who is standing on the combined battleship.
The coalition lost a lot of warships at once. Seeing this scene Xiao Ran wanted to leave right away, but just as he turned around, he heard the tidal wave of exclamations from the crowd again, and he immediately turned around again. Four or five warships had never appeared in this world. The boundary-crossing machine fell from the sky and intercepted Eshe and four others. At the same time, the remaining men attacked Impulse Gundam, which was destroying the fleet. This scene immediately made Xiao Ran raise his eyebrows slightly.
"Hmm, Skygrasper Gundam, AGE Gundam Type 1 or two? Mass production or prototype? There are also two unknown models, are they modified machines?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and gently touched his chin. "By the way, even if they are all the same as me Newcomers who have entered have already completed so many missions, and some potential participants will join the legion or receive special rewards. Gradually, more and more modified machines and high-definition machines will appear. It will probably become more and more difficult to obtain information easily from the appearance of the machine."
Xiao Ran squinted his eyes, and was heartbroken when he looked at the two modified machines in the distance. The greater the extent of the modification, the harder it would be to identify it immediately and get information about that machine. And if it was so large that even he couldn't distinguish it at the first time, it would be harder to get information about the machine. After all, although many machines are similar in appearance, they are still very different on the inside.
Just like whether there is PS Armor or not, it is impossible to tell during battle. If you only have one chance to hit the opponent at a critical moment, the opponent can also hit you at this time. The difference between whether there is PS Armor or not is very big.
For example, I-Field is also invisible from the outside. If it is a prototype machine Xiao Ran, it will naturally know whether the opponent has such defense means. However, if it is a high-definition machine and a modified machine, they cannot be separated at the first time, thereby affecting the subsequent battle.
It will also prevent Xiao Ran from directly determining the level of the machine, and the role of the detection skill will gradually become apparent.
The two machines that appeared today can be regarded as a reminder to Xiao Ran. In addition to the advantage of understanding the plot, the advantage of understanding the machine will gradually decrease as Mission World continues. When the participants grow up, they will more or less highly modify their own machines. In this way, they will eventually be transformed into machines that are completely different from the world in which they were produced, and become new machines with independent characteristics.
Because the distance was too far, Xiao Ran could tell that it was Skygrasper. Two AGE Gundam Type 1s and it was the limit to be able to confirm that these three machines did not exceed C level. It was difficult to judge the level of the two modified machines at the first time. The distance between the two machines completely exceeded the scope of his use of Scout Skill.
This made Xiao Ran frown slightly. He could only carefully observe the movements and performance of the two machines to judge the level of the two machines based on experience. If it was confirmed to be B-class Mecha, I am afraid that Xiao Ran would immediately turn around and rush back to Second Archangel to drive his own machine into battle, for no other reason than to protect these four newcomers who had just joined the legion.
Fortunately, the movements of the two Unknown Unit did not reach the level of the B machine. Based on the experience of Xiao Ran and B-class Pilot, it can be judged. Let's say that one of the machines is different from the Impulse Gundam at this time. The fact that fought back and forth but could not gain even a slight advantage can explain everything. The two sides are still at about the same level, and even being at a slight disadvantage after the outbreak of Zhen·Asuka shows the strength of the other party. This also makes Xiao Ran feel slightly relieved.
The targets of the participant machines that suddenly appeared did not seem to be on Minerva, or they appeared too late, so they had no choice but to protect the remaining power of Combined Fleet as much as possible.
Appearing at this time cannot completely reverse the disadvantage caused by the four Eshe and Impulse Gundam. The original Earth Force fleet is now considered a big break, and the participants who appeared They are evenly matched with the Eshe quartet, Impulse Gundam and others. If you include Lunamaria and Lei's backup, Earth Force is actually still at a disadvantage.
If the fight really continues, Earth Force, even with the help of these participants, still has no chance of defeating Minerva. In addition, the other party will definitely be able to confirm the identities of the four participants of Eshe. Unless there is a direct conflict between Main Mission and Side Mission, Xiao Ran estimates that the possibility of the other party finding an opportunity to leave will be greater than the possibility of continuing.
According to Xiao Ran's speculation, the possibility that the other party has a mission is very small. After all, if there is a mission, the average participant will definitely go out to fight as soon as possible to be safe, and will not choose to show up at this time.
Sorry, this is just one chapter today. These two Tiandu are out during the holidays.
