Old Man Raphael was stunned: "What do you mean? Do you think those MS that appeared are from alien life forms?"
Xiao Ran shook his head. Naturally, he would not tell Old Man Raphael that those participants were indeed not from Earth. Even if he was from Earth, he was definitely not from this world. ︽
"I didn't say that, but these machines appeared just when my organization was about to start taking action, and they began to attack our military bases as soon as they appeared. It's hard to say what the conspiracy of the organization that created these machines was. "
Old Raphael lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked: "How can I guarantee that the organization behind you and the machine that attacked the military base are not the same group, they are just putting on a good show of the organization behind you."
"If you join my organization, you will understand that the machines organized behind me and the machines we captured belong to two completely different technologies." Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders and said: "Even if it is my dark heresy, because it is me The family independently developed them, so they are completely different, with different energy sources and different weapons. I think you should be very clear that no national force can climb different technology trees."
Raphael had to admit what Xiao Ran said, because even such a big world has the same consensus on technology, and it is difficult for a country to overturn the existing technology and develop it from scratch. Another technology, not to mention just an organization.
"I have to see it with my own eyes and hear it before I believe it." Old Raphael held the crutch with both hands and knocked on the floor twice, then stood up: "I will not join your so-called until I really understand it. organization, but you can rest assured that I will not reveal your identity either."
"Thank you." Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the old man Raphael: "Mr. Raphael, if you want to see it in person, I can make arrangements at any time."
"In a few days." Old Raphael shook his head. Said: "Let's do what needs to be done first. Just because I agree to go with you doesn't mean that I will definitely join your organization. I'm just doing it for my most proud disciple. Don't get me wrong. Got it."
"I know, Mr. Raphael." Xiao Ran put the mask back on his face and helped old Raphael out: "It's getting late today. I'll let Mr. Raphael rest early tomorrow morning. I’ll have someone take you there, Mr. Raphael, okay?”
"Yeah." Old Man Raphael nodded and replied, "I've been on a plane for a few hours. I'm really tired. Just make arrangements for yourself."
Xiao Ran smiled and soon asked someone to take Old Raphael to rest. After Old Raphael left, Xiao Ran exhaled as if he was relaxed.
When he returned to the office again, Xiao Ran saw Mok's adjutant standing in the office waiting for him. After returning the courtesy, Xiao Ran asked: "What's the matter?"
"General, it has been leaked that a third party joined today's battle. The battle video of the five aircraft that appeared in today's battle has begun to circulate on the Internet, and many news organizations have started to broadcast it. General Mock asked me To inform you and ask you what we should do.”
The adjutant's words did not make Xiao Ran feel any unexpected emotions. The appearance of heavenly beings could not be concealed. Even if no reporters or civilians take pictures of these things, Veda will take the initiative to put the battle records online and officially announce the existence of heavenly beings to the world.
And the video records circulating now are just the beginning, and will not be until tomorrow. It’s time for Aeolia to appear.
However, Mok sent someone to ask him, and Xiao Ran had no choice but to give him a reply, and said: "We will wait and see what happens for the time being. We will wait for the local reaction."
The adjutant nodded and said: "Okay general, I will convey the message to Brigadier General Mock."
Xiao Ran hummed and asked, "When will the specially-made cell be delivered?"
The adjutant replied: "It should be delivered in three to four hours."
"Okay, let's go ahead and guard the prisoners. We must be more vigilant. No one is allowed to come within fifty meters or have any contact with the prisoners."
"Yes." The adjutant saluted Xiao Ran with a military salute. When he saw that Xiao Ran had nothing to say, he said, "Then I'll take my leave, general."
"Go." When Brigadier General Mock's adjutant left the office and closed the door, Xiao Ran also lay on the bed in the lounge behind the office, and closed his eyes within a moment.
Because of his willingness to fight, Xiao Ran was very exhausted, especially mentally. He was exhausted. If there wasn't so much work to do, Xiao Ran would have been unable to hold on and wanted to sleep.
No one disturbed Xiao Ran during this sleep. He slept until early the next morning before being woken up. This sleep also allowed Xiao Ran to fully recover his energy.
Almost an hour later, a ceremony began on the deck of the main ship. Amidst the sound of military music, the president's special envoy announced the new appointment letter, officially announcing that Xiao Ran had become the top military officer of the Japanese Special Economic Zone, and then handed over the appointment letter. He handed it to Xiao Ran, along with the new military uniform and rank.
Xiao Ran was also present to formally appoint Graham and other pilots, which truly confirmed the promotion of Graham and other pilots. Unlike before, it was just a temporary promotion without any formalities. This announcement can be regarded as officially including the military positions of these pilots in the records, and is recognized by the entire union.
After the ceremony, Xiao Ran personally sent the old man Raphael to the military base. At this time, several huge structural board rooms had been temporarily built in the military base, the recovered MS wreckage and the MK-II Gundam At this time, we are in these wooden houses.
On the tarmac, a flat area was also cleared, and there were special cells made of e-carbon armor materials that were delivered overnight. The captured participants were held in them. Each participant had no They were held in solitary confinement and monitored 24 hours a day. Perhaps because they had been in the open air for too long and had no food or drink, everyone seemed a little depressed.
In addition, after a night of searching and cleaning up, most of the places in the base have been cleared out, and several living people have been rescued and sent to the hospital. The military engineering MS has also begun to search for a certain person. Buildings that are no longer usable will be demolished.
The combat MS troops patrolled in 24-hour shifts, but even those participants were imprisoned in e-carbon cells. There are still ten heavily armed MSs guarding the outside.
When Xiao Ran got off the plane, what he saw was the bustling scene in the base. Old Raphael, Billy and a group of technicians went directly to the board room to start working. Xiao Ran took Graham into the cell. among.
This special cell is very simple. It is made up of small rooms one by one. There is no table, chairs, or even a bed in the room, just a soft mat, pillows and quilts.
When Xiao Ran led Graham into the monitoring room, several soldiers and a low-level officer monitoring in the monitoring room stood up in a panic. He saluted Xiao Ran with a military salute.
Xiao Ran nodded and waved his hand to several soldiers to put their hands down, and asked: "Is there anything going on?"
The highest-ranking officer in the monitoring room was a second lieutenant. He stood up straight, raised his chest and raised his head and answered loudly: "Report to the general, when these people were detained just now, they tried to escape, but when our MS fired directly, they changed. Be honest, everyone enters his own cell."
Xiao Ran glanced at Graham, who also shook his head. Expressing that he didn't know clearly: Xiao Ran sighed slightly and thought to himself: "Sure enough, we should have a professional adjutant."
I originally wanted Graham to be an adjutant, but looking at Graham's current state, he was not the material to be an adjutant at all. At this moment, Xiao Ran missed Moses and Billy in the world of Macross F. Both of them had to handle everything for Xiao Ran in an orderly manner. He could handle everything by himself and he could handle everything that needed to be consulted. very clear. The work ability is also very good.
Especially Moses, Xiao Ran felt that he really made some mistakes. Why didn't he bring Moses out with him at that time. At least now he has a qualified adjutant who can help him do many, many things.
Although Graham was not very good at being an adjutant, he still had a look in his eyes, so he asked the second lieutenant: "Be more specific."
The second lieutenant said loudly: "Report to the general, report to the chief. The cells were moved by air at that time, and we sent these people to the cells for custody. However, we also left a safe distance in accordance with the order, but we did not expect that someone tried to move these people. He ran away, ran far away in the blink of an eye, and was shot directly by our army's MS in the end."
Xiao Ran nodded, a little curious: "Who is the person who died?"
"The pilot of the white machine whose limbs were broken."
The limbs were broken, and it was a white machine. There was only one in Xiao Ran's image.
Xiao Ran thought for a moment and immediately understood. Then he shook his head and thought to himself: "It turns out he is the pilot of the Land War Gundam. He is really stupid."
Even with the physical quality of the participants, it is absolutely impossible to withstand the attack of the MS main weapon. One shell is enough to turn the participant into a ball of blood foam. Xiao Ran had already prepared that these people would have ideas, so he directly arranged for MS to cooperate with the army troops to guard, and even issued an order to attack directly if there was any movement. Those MS pilots kept it in mind, so he Will shoot directly at the first opportunity.
Xiao Ran glanced at several screens in the control room. At this time, there were nine participants lying or sitting on them, or walking back and forth, tapping on the wall. Although Xiao Ran didn't recognize these people, he knew that four of them were that person. The pilot who piloted the Gundam K-II, the pilot who was cut into pieces by the Storm Dagger by the Archangel Gundam, and the three pilots of the three machines that Xiao Ran piloted the Mystic Angel Gundam and destroyed them in the first moment of the attack. , nine people in total.
After carefully looking at the participants who appeared on the screen, Xiao Ran turned around and asked, "Which one is the one who surrendered voluntarily?"
The second lieutenant replied: "Cell No. 3."
Xiao Ran glanced at the surveillance video No. 3. What appeared in the surveillance video was the profile of a figure wearing a pink pilot uniform, with short shoulder-length hair and a curvy figure. He was sitting on the ground, hugging his legs and burying his head in his legs.
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised: "Woman?"
The ensign nodded: "Yes, General."
"The only one who surrendered voluntarily?" Xiao Ran pondered and said, "Graham, come with me to meet this woman."
Graham nodded: "Okay, General."
Xiao Ran's eyes under the mask glanced at the second lieutenant in the monitoring room, and then gently waved his two fingers: "Open the door when I get there."
The second lieutenant was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly: "General, is this too dangerous?"
"It's okay." Xiao Ran waved his hand and walked out of the monitoring room. The second lieutenant didn't say much when he saw Xiao Ran leaving. He saluted Xiao Ran's back with a military salute. After Graham also left the room, he handed over his hand. Put it down.
The second lieutenant saw Xiao Ran walking to the door of Cell No. 3 from the surveillance camera in the corridor. He gritted his teeth and walked to the console, took a shot, and directly opened the door of Cell No. 3. Under the astonishment of other soldiers in the monitoring room, , directly tore off all the lines responsible for monitoring cell No. 3, and then exhaled as if relaxed.
After taking a few breaths, the second lieutenant looked at the soldiers in the control room sternly: "What happened just now must not be leaked."
"What just happened."
"I'm so sleepy, I'd better continue sleeping."
"Ouch, my eyes hurt so much, I can't see anymore!"
"..." The second lieutenant was speechless looking at the performance of his men, but he was still quite satisfied. He saw Xiao Ran's action just now, so he did such a thing.
As for Xiao Ran's intention to do something bad to the female pilot, the second lieutenant never thought about it from the bottom of his heart. Although the female pilot was indeed a rare beauty, the second lieutenant only thought that the general might want to have sex with that woman. The pilot said something that was not convenient for them to hear.
When cell No. 3 was opened, the female pilot inside also stood up, and slowly and cautiously leaned against the wall behind her. Her eyes stared in the direction of the cell door until her mask was turned upside down. Xiao Ran walked in with Graham.
Xiao Ran saw the female pilot leaning against the wall with a wary look on her face. She glanced at the darkened surveillance camera and nodded slightly. She walked directly to the center of the cell and looked at the female pilot with an indifferent expression. She waited for her to go up and down. After sizing up the other person, Xiao Ran slowly spoke. (Please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster updates!
