Xiao Ran looked at Crimson Forbidden lying in front of him, surrounded by a bunch of Technicians and maintenance personnel, with various equipment lines connected. After hearing Symonds's words, he also looked at her and nodded slightly. This time I drove Midnight Gundam to attack. Although it did show its inherent performance, Xiao Ran still felt that there were many restrictions when driving, and it was not that customary to use.
Although the machine body has Yasakani no Magatama Armor, it can be immune to Beam Attack, which to a certain extent greatly enhances its defense ability against Beam Attack. However, this ability is obtained by depriving the defense effect of live ammunition. However, at present, apart from being weaker against Ballistic Weapons, the impact of equipment Yasakani no Magatama Armor is not too great.
Setsuna can absorb and reflect Beam Attack at Yasakani no Magatama Armor. In fact, Xiao Ran can detect that in that brief moment, the body itself actually lost more operations. Possibly, you cannot attack with your own weapons while reflecting the beam. There are many reasons for this, but the most critical one is caused by the stiffness caused by Yasakani no Magatama Armor to Energy Absorption after being attacked.
At the same time as Energy Absorption, it will also cause the body itself to be bound by the stance of Beam Attack. If it is an ordinary MS Beam Attack, then the impact of the restraint of that stance on the body itself can be said to be very small, but if it is replaced by a battleship as large as In contrast, even if Midnight Gundam can block and reflect powerful attacks, it will still be restrained by the position of powerful energy and difficult to move. And if it is attacked by entities from other aspects under such circumstances, it is very likely that there will be a situation of defeat and death.
Of course, only fools would do such things as blocking the bombardment of battleships. Generally speaking, Yasakani no Magatama Armor has indeed enhanced the defense of the body a lot, but it has caused some negative effects on Melee Combat. At least Yasakani no Magatama Armor itself is definitely inferior to PS Armor in terms of hardness and durability. Knee strikes like Xiao Ran have actually caused many cracks in the knee armor and calf armor.
And there is no Floating Weapons to use this point, which more or less has a certain impact on Xiao Ran. After all, Floating Weapons's attack is weird, and the 360-degree no-dead-angle attack accounts for a lot. Advantage, but because there is no relationship with Floating Weapons, all the technologies of Xiao Ran are reflected in the body itself. The operation and control of the body have reached the ultimate level, and it can also exert good combat capabilities.
But the weakness is equally obvious. If Xiao Ran is driving his own Justice Gundam, then a pair of three can at least suppress the two machines Golden Scavenger and Crimson Forbidden at the same time, and can also launch an effective attack on Azure Calamity The attack can also ensure that there will be no miscellaneous-level aircraft around him at all, and this is still in a melee situation. This is something Midnight Gundam cannot match at all. It can only do what Freedom Gundam does, perform multiple locks when there is a chance and then fire all the guns.
The real key issue lies in the energy, frame and output of the body. The energy source is a new type of battery energy independently developed by Akatsuki Works. Even if the new energy battery pack is combined with the energy provided by the backpack, the energy consumption will be reduced during the battle. It can only go out and not get close. If Xiao Ran really fights with full firepower, the energy will be consumed very quickly, and it will not be able to support him to fight for a long time, especially when facing the same ace machine, this point will be highlighted.
Both Dawn Gundam and Midnight Gundam use the frame of the G Series body. The flexibility seems to be enough, but compared with the new generation of the body, it seems a bit behind. Not to mention the higher flexibility of the New Generation Mecha frame, there is a gap in pressure resistance, solidity, and overall performance.
What best reflects the shortcomings of the skeleton and energy is the output of the machine. This output not only includes the frequency and power of Beam Attack, but also includes the propulsion capability and the strength of the machine. Just like when Crimson Forbidden fell from the sky, the scythe was swung even if Xiao Ran reacted and made Midnight Gundam pull out Beam Saber to hold it up, but it was also suppressed by the power of Crimson Forbidden and lowered its height. If someone is not skilled enough, the sickle may be prone to a lot of problems.
Of course, this is what Xiao Ran got by driving Midnight Gundam, and what Symonds got is more of a lack of data. To sum up, it is the same as Although Xiao Ran's idea is similar, it also takes into account the defense issues against Ballistic Weapons and Close Combat, but how to change it and how to adjust it cannot be completed today.
After Director Symonds summarized the obtained data, Xiao Ran also put forward some opinions. In fact, there are not many places that can be changed in terms of the body. I never thought of using it from the beginning of the design. Nuclear Engine, so it is impossible to change it to the body of Nuclear Engine. In terms of energy, we can only start from the backpack, which uses the backpack to supply nuclear energy like Savior Gundam X11.
Mecha Skeleton and the output defense line are inevitable limitations after design and manufacturing. There is no way to change it. However, after all, Midnight Gundam is not a specially designed Melee Type body, so the flaws in this aspect can be ignored.
Finally, there is an effective defense method against live ammunition attacks. This aspect is actually not that troublesome to improve. It can be solved by two shoulder shields or a shield that can be used for attacks.
But to be honest, Xiao Ran feels that no matter how Midnight Gundam is improved, it actually doesn't mean much to him, because he has Justice Gundam that is obviously more advanced than Midnight Gundam to use, and there is no need to take risks and drive Midnight Gundam safely.
This time I drove Midnight Gundam just to cooperate with Symonds, and to thank Asaha for arranging this machine body. It was more of a symbolic meaning. It will be difficult or even impossible for him to use this Midnight Gundam to continue fighting. Even if Midnight Gundam will continue to fight, it will not be Xiao Ran that he will continue to drive.
After telling Symonds that she would not continue to fight with Midnight Gundam, Symonds nodded naturally. In fact, for her, Xiao Ran driving Midnight Gundam to fight was already a very risky and irresponsible behavior.
Symonds nodded and looked at the Justice Gundam, which was obviously thick and had special abilities. He also felt that that machine looked much more powerful than this Midnight Gundam. Then he put his hands slightly above his abdomen, highlighting his slim figure.
Symonds looked at the machine on the ground, then at Midnight Gundam, then turned to Xiao Ran and said, "Then Midnight Gundam, who are you going to deliver it to? Such combat power can't just be left like this. And the machine you brought back, it took a few days to repair and analyze it, so you have to find a good pilot to use it, right?"
Xiao Ran nodded and groaned. These two airframes must be delivered to qualified pilots before the functions of the airframes can be revealed. But the problem now is that Orb Xiao Ran really doesn't know who can really operate these two pilots. Xiao Ran Who to choose, and once Athrun leaves Savior Gundam X11 will also be free, that is, the vacancy of three Ace-level pilots, which is really a headache for the currently weak Orb.
Director Symonds looked at Xiao Ran's thoughtful expression, smiled slightly and said, "Seeing that you are in a difficult situation, shall I recommend two people to you?"
"Huh?" Xiao Ran looked at Symonds and nodded gently. "Who is it?"
"Mayu Feiniao, who is currently serving as the test pilot of Akatsuki Works, has not been officially a test pilot for a long time, but he has shown outstanding potential that ordinary pilots cannot match. After proper training, he can definitely become a test pilot. The qualified Ace Pilot, another fighter who left the army after the last war and returned to the army after your return, is enough to be called the strongest pilot of Astray, Bally."
"Mayu·Asuka? Bally·He?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows slightly. He had heard it said before that Mayu·Asuka has become Akatsuki Works's test pilot, and he performed well, but he didn't expect to hear Symonds say this name again at this time, and Symonds was very optimistic about the little girl's appearance.
The other Bally·He seemed rather unfamiliar to Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran paused and asked, "Mayu·Feiniao, I know, but two years ago she was just a little girl who didn't understand anything. Two years later, is she really capable of piloting such a machine on the battlefield?"
Symonds covered his mouth and smiled softly, "That's not because of you, sir. That girl has always regarded you as an idol. After you disappeared, she found Bargyll and wanted to join Orb Army. She said that she would help you protect this country like his brother, and He had shown great potential during training. Although he was not the youngest among the pilots at that time, his performance was among the top. However, because he was too young and had no connection with the war, Bargyll was sent to Akatsuki Works to serve as a test pilot."
"But I can guarantee that even if that guy Mu wants to deal with the serious Mayu, he will have a headache for a long time."
Xiao Ran nodded slightly. As Mayu, Mayu, who is the half-father and half-mother of True Asuka and has the same bloodline, should indeed be similar to True Asuka in terms of potential. For example, the ability to explode SEED is very likely to appear in Mayu. Such an ability alone can actually lay the strongest foundation for Mayu to become Ace Pilot.
