After coming out of Malu's captain's room, Xiao Ran seemed to be walking calmly on the road to Gnaku, but his heart was pounding. He didn't know if he was a little excited after seeing Lux. He actually couldn't control himself and said a lot of things he shouldn't have said, and almost let others notice. Ma Liu's suspicion was the most direct proof.
Fortunately, Xiao Ran had no ill intentions towards the Archangel. At this time, his life was closely related to the Archangel, and he had been playing a forced role since he boarded the ship. Although Ma Liu was somewhat suspicious of Xiao Ran's origins, I still firmly believe that he has no ill intentions towards the Archangel.
Xiao Ran reminded himself not to talk too much in the future. When he passed by the cafeteria, he happened to hear a sharp female voice: "Forget it, don't be joking. I have no reason to shake hands with you. I am obviously an adjuster. Don't Come and get close!"
Xiao Ran, who frowned, recalled this scene in his mind, and walked over quickly. When he saw several people in the cafeteria looking at each other, especially Kira's ugly expression, Xiao Ran shouted angrily: "What are you talking about! "
When Xiao Ran finished speaking, he secretly applauded in his heart: "Thank you Fulei for giving me the opportunity to gain a good impression."
"Ah, teacher." Kazuyi and Miliya looked at Xiao Ran coming in and shouted out in embarrassment. Fleur also seemed to realize that what she said also affected Kira, but she was so strong and stubborn that she didn't feel that she was wrong at all, and turned her head to the side after Xiao Ran shouted.
"Teacher?" Lux tilted her head slightly.
Xiao Ran nodded lightly to the two of them, walked to Kira and patted Kira's shoulder, comforting softly: "Kira, don't take what she said to heart, Fleur is just a little girl with a temper, maybe It’s because I’m under too much pressure from what happened recently and it’s a little abnormal.”
"Yeah." Kira forced a smile and nodded.
Xiao Ran turned his head and glanced at Fleur. From Fleur's expression and eyes, there was no hint of apology. Even so, Xiao Ran didn't bother to talk to Fleur. If this girl hadn't met her, she wouldn't have matured at all. , she is simply a spoiled rich lady, she talks in vain and is annoying for no reason.
Xiao Ran also thought for a moment. Anyway, as long as he continued to maintain an irreplaceable position in Kira's mind, of course he would be an elder, respected master, father and brother. Even if Frey really has a relationship with Kira as in the original plot, it is not a bad thing for Xiao Ran. It also avoids the threat of plot changes and allows Kira to unleash her extraordinary potential. What a bad thing.
As for Fleur, when watching the animation at the time, the episode where she died really moved Xiao Ran. I also feel that Fleur is not actually a malicious person. It was just that her father's death was such a heavy blow to her that she did a series of immature things and almost caused many troubles.
And Xiao Ran also has quite a bad taste in his heart. He also wants to see Fleur, who looks annoying but is actually just an innocent person, and Lux, who looks innocent and pure but is actually not that simple inside. Will these two people be jealous because of Kira, or will they make peace with each other
Xiao Ran smiled in his heart, and said apologetically to Lacus: "I'm sorry, Miss Lacus, for letting you see this scene. If possible, it's better not to leave the room, so as not to cause any other conflicts. The three of us in the future will I will ask Kira to deliver the meal to you, and as for the pilot Moria Haru, I will take care of it, please don’t worry.”
Before Lux could refuse, Xiao Ran turned to look at Kira: "Kira, can you take Miss Lux back to the room with you?"
"Yes." Kira nodded lightly, walked to the table in front, picked up a plate full of food, and walked out of the cafeteria. Lux also politely said goodbye to everyone present and followed Kira. behind.
Xiao Ran glanced at the remaining three people, shook his head, picked up a piece of food, and left after asking about the location of the pilot who handed over to Mo Liya. He spent more than ten minutes delivering the things and comforting her. Moria was a little irritable, especially when she was reminded that Lux was still on the Archangel, Xiao Ran went directly to the Gnaku.
Before entering the Gnaku, Xiao Ran could hear all kinds of busy sounds, and when he entered, he couldn't help but show a hint of excitement.
The reconnaissance type Jean who was originally lying on the ground stood up at some point, and his blown head was reinstalled. I don’t know which sunken ship belonging to ZAFT was led by Sergeant Maddock. Or it was recovered from a scrapped Jean. The two giant arms, which had intact shoulders and broken arms, were also dismantled on the ground. The armor belonging to the chest and back was also removed and only the skeleton was left.
The originally wide floor was now filled with all kinds of parts whose functions Xiao Ran didn't understand at all. More than a dozen people were working around the giant arm on the ground to modify and repair it. Xiao Ran also saw among these parts Got the steel palms and shoulder armor belonging to Strike Gundam.
Xiao Ran's arrival did not attract much attention, but Sergeant Maddock, who was in charge of the overall command, was obviously not among them. As soon as he saw Xiao Ran, he stretched out his hand and shouted to greet him.
Sergeant Maddock said directly as soon as Xiao Ran approached him: "It's just the right time for you to come. I just have something to discuss with you."
Xiao Ran: "Please tell me."
Sergeant Maddock rubbed his head and turned the computer in his hand towards Xiao Ran so that both of them could see what was on it at the same time: "Although technically speaking, Jean is still It's a little short of the Strike Gundam. It's no problem for us to repair this big guy. We also recovered a lot of Zeon parts in the gravel belt, but I don't think you need to simply repair it. A reconnaissance-type Zeon. En also doesn’t have much fighting ability, so we started to modify this Zeon.”
"The first is the transformation of the weapon system. This Jean originally used long-range live ammunition weapons, but our pursuers were Gundams, and the live ammunition weapons were useless. So we came up with two ideas. The first was to directly attack the Zeon. En's shoulder and energy interface were modified so that Jean could directly equip Strike Gundam's spare backpack, but this would make repairs very troublesome if it was damaged in battle. Because in addition to weapon accessories, Strike Gundam The body parts are still in short supply, which requires you to be very careful during battle, and you must also equip a backpack when going into battle."
"The second is to dismantle the spare backpack of Strike Gundam and reassemble it. However, the modification will take some time, and it may even take a long time to recharge it, or the energy consumption will be too high. Although this situation The battle damage repair replenishment is also very old, but it is better than before.”
Xiao Ran nodded slightly while listening, and began to consider the shortcomings of the two situations. After thinking about it, he raised his head and glanced at the black Jean. He also noticed in his heart, turned to Sergeant Maddock and said: "I think it would be better if we combine two methods. Modify Jean's shoulders to the same style as Strike Gundam. In this way, we can directly use Strike Gundam's backpack and replace the original small slide on the rear. Components were dismantled and then retrofitted, and the energy section was retrofitted.”
"Because Jean does not have S armor, nor does it consume as much energy as Strike Gundam. Even in battle, you don't have to worry too much about excessive energy consumption and the problem of being unable to replace it, so you only need to choose a fixed backpack. Of course, if It would be nice to have an extra battery.”
"However, Jean's armor is too fragile compared to Gundam. I don't think this problem can be solved, so the mobility must be improved. I hope that this fixed backpack can be transformed into a flight backpack and add some small jet ports. There's no problem. Don't worry about whether my body can withstand it. You can treat me as two to three times the physical fitness of a normal human being. If necessary, you can also use the Strike Gundam's ship-cutting sword and ultra-high pulse cannon. "
"Conventional weapons mainly include two beam sabers, a beam rifle and an anti-beam shield. If a small mechanical arm can be added, the shield can also be fixed on the shoulder of the left arm. Even if the shield is reduced, there will be no problem. "
Xiao Ran said while thinking, Sergeant Maddock was writing and drawing on the computer while wiping the sweat from his forehead. After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he shrugged helplessly: "Don't worry about changing the interface of the backpack. The problem is indeed much simpler. Just take off the original backpack and replace it with a modification interface. As for the beam rifle and beam saber, fortunately we made preparations before you came. There are no weapons on Jean's palms. interface, so I asked someone to prepare the spare palm of Strike Gundam, which is easy to deal with."
"However, the issues related to the modification of the backpack and the small robotic arm are a bit difficult to deal with. In this case, the shoulder armor of the left arm cannot be transformed into the style of Strike Gundam. But if we use Jean's original right shoulder armor If so, there will be no problem at all.”
Xiao Ran turned his head and looked at the shoulder armor that originally belonged to Jean. Because it was completely removed, he could still see the original appearance clearly. It happened that the shoulder of Jean's right arm was equipped with a detection device, and the detection device happened to be It rotates left and right, and the shield can be modified with a little reinforcement.
After closing his eyes and imagining the operation of the shield in his mind, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded: "Then it will be as you wish."
"Then let's decide this. I will try my best to modify it for you according to your requirements." Madok patted the computer in his hand. He had already compiled all Xiao Ran's requirements into the computer. As long as the appropriate modifications are made, without modification, It is still very easy when Jean is the main body. Even Jean's original energy does not need to be modified. It only requires a small process on the backpack and energy interface.
"Then I'll trouble you." Xiao Ran was about to leave with an expectant smile, but he heard Sergeant Maddock saying helplessly to himself: "Hey, when will days like this end."
After hearing these words, several scenes flashed through Xiao Ran's mind, which was the rendezvous with the advance fleet of the Eighth Fleet. During the rendezvous, there seemed to be a sudden battle. Fleur's father was also there. died in this battle.
"It seems that this is the time." Xiao Ran frowned and turned towards Sergeant Maddock again: "Brother Maddock, I have something to ask you about the transformation of the machine body."
"Any other requests?" Madoc felt his head hurt, and unconsciously rubbed it with his hands.
"No, it's not this." Xiao Ran couldn't help laughing because of Madok's actions. Seeing the other person's relieved look, he shook his head and said to Madok seriously: "No matter what the situation is, This body must be completely transformed."
When Madoc heard that it was this request, he laughed and patted Xiao Ran on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we will work overtime to get it out for you as soon as possible."
Xiao Ran opened his mouth to remind Madoc that the upcoming battle would be very tragic, but in the end he just nodded and emphasized again: "Then please, you must remember, do not stop the transformation of the body no matter what the situation is. It’s any situation.”
"Don't worry, don't worry." Madoc patted Xiao Ran's shoulder and left. The most important of Xiao Ran's series of requests was the issue of a backpack. Although it seemed simple, it was also a tiring matter and required recalculation and adjustment in many aspects. , and there was no time to chat with Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran looked at Madoc's leaving figure, shook his head helplessly and left Gnaku. Xiao Ran didn't see it, but Madock raised his head when he left.
Watching Xiao Ran leave, Madoc also smiled: "This kid, it's true, even if it's just to thank you and the kid, we will transform this machine. Guys, work harder, don't It’s so despising!”
"Okay, head!"
