With Cardeas leading the way, it didn't take long for Xiao Ran and Yao to go directly through the secret passage of Cardeas Manor to a special research institute, a place dedicated to adjusting rx-0 and perfecting the nt-d system. A small technology factory hidden in a satellite.
A bald man came out to greet the three of them at the first moment. Jarchen, the secretary of Cartiers, was originally a staff member of the Earth Federation Intelligence Department, but he had a relationship with Cartiers because he admired his ideals. and pledged their allegiance to a common goal.
The bald man Jiaer was also stunned when he saw Xiao Ran, and then bent towards Xiao Ran: "Master Xiao Ran."
"Yeah." Xiao Ran nodded slightly, looked around and said: "A secret technology factory. Although rx-0 was partially completed in Anaheim on the moon, the final main body development and system development seemed to be It was completed here, is there a hangar here that can accommodate MS?"
Jal glanced at Cardeas first, and after the latter nodded slightly, he said: "Yes, there is also a secret MS hangar here to deal with various situations."
"Yao, call them over." Xiao Ran said to Yao first, then looked at Jial and said: "My people are still on standby on the outer wall of the satellite. Please, please and my assistant bring them back. They have been driving It doesn’t matter if you carry it in the cabin.”
Jal bowed respectfully: "Okay."
Cardeas said: "Let's go, then I will take you to see rx-0."
Jarl left with Yao to meet Hikaru, Homura and Aiyu Shinno, while Cardeas took Xiao Ran directly to the special hangar where rx-0 was stored. A pure white machine with a single horn appeared in it. In front of Xiao Ran.
Without gravity, Xiao Ran's feet floated up with a slight click. After looking up and down, he nodded and turned to look at Cardeas below him: "It's a good machine. Judging from its industrial level, this It can be regarded as a creation that combines all the latest cutting-edge crystallizations of Anaheim, but without a suitable pilot, there is no way to fully utilize the performance of this machine."
"So your son is the new human being who can bring out the full capabilities of this machine?"
Cartiers did not deny: "He is just one of the choices."
Xiao Ran smiled indifferently. This horned beast is indeed good. If it is driven by a new human pilot, it will be an S-class machine. Just like the solar furnace machine and Xiao Ran, it is a complementary combination.
However, if the person driving this machine is not a new human being, it is hard to say how much strength this machine can exert. Moreover, once the nt-d system is forcibly turned on, it will be full of huge threats to the pilot. , will be affected by the souls floating in the universe, eventually turning the pilot into a puppet of the machine.
Xiao Ran said: "Aren't you going to test it? If you don't mind, how about I be the test pilot?"
Cardeas was stunned: "You?"
Xiao Ran smiled: "I am a pilot who does not belong to Amuro and Char. If I can't have power in such a world, how can I ensure that I will not be in danger in such a world? Influence."
Cardeas was silent for a moment and nodded slowly. His inner thought was that since Xiao Ran was interested, let him try it. As for the result, Cardeas had no hope. At worst, he would arrange for other pilots to test it. alright.
Cardeas said: "Come with me. To test this machine, you must first change your clothes."
Xiao Ran nodded and did not refuse. With Xiao Ran's physical fitness, there is no problem driving this rx-0. Even Ying Longshen can drive without protective clothing, not to mention that this rx-0 should have just reached the S-level passing line. unicorn, but there is no need to show off this in front of Cardeas.
Cardeas found a set of heavy anti-g-force clothing for Xiao Ran. Although it looked like one would be reluctant to wear this suit at a glance, Xiao Ran still slowly put it on himself. When Xiao Ran changed his clothes and appeared in front of Cardeas, Cardeas just nodded and said something.
"Your people have already come in. If you don't mind, can you tell me what's going on with those machines? I don't know when Anaheim made those machines."
Xiao Ran said: "It is not made by Anaheim but is independently made by my technicians. Can you have such a secret personal factory? As the major shareholder of Anaheim, can't I also have one like this?" Factory? Ha, of course I admit that it also uses some Anaheim technology. Although it is not a body suitable for the new humans, in terms of performance alone, it should not be worse than the rx-0 that you put so much effort into. "
Cardeas nodded: "I understand, I will go to the control room to assist you in testing rx-0."
Xiao Ran nodded: "Okay, if you want to join me, I won't be able to fully squeeze out the performance of that rx-0."
A few minutes later, Xiao Ran had already sat in the cockpit of the Unicorn Gundam. After taking a look, he opened the body's system with familiarity. Cardeas's voice also appeared in his ears: "This test is just a simple one." The test is mainly to check whether the performance data of the body itself has reached the initially expected level."
"It's very simple." Xiao Ran controlled the machine body to close the cockpit cover, and said at the same time: "Where is the test area?"
"There is a small meteorite belt nearby, so please be careful."
A map appeared in front of Xiao Ran's eyes, with the expected route to the planetary belt and the testing area marked on it.
Xiao Ran put on the helmet smoothly, buckled the seat belt and said: "Understood, start to untie the restraint rack."
The iron frame restraining the Unicorn Gundam slowly moved away, and red lights lit up in the hangar. The armor plates above were opened, and soon the starry sky above was revealed. Xiao Ran stepped on it lightly. Pressing the pedals twice, holding the operating lever and pulling it, then stepping on both feet at the same time, the Unicorn Gundam flew up while maintaining an upright posture, quickly rushed through the passage and entered the universe.
"RX-0 has launched an attack and started recording the test process."
"The data link is completed and all data has been fully synchronized."
"Wait a minute, Lord Cardeas, there is something wrong with the data fed back by the machine."
Cardeas was originally watching the Unicorn Gundam slowly speeding up on the big screen. After hearing the report of his technician, he immediately frowned and walked to the technician who reported the report.
"what's the situation."
"The nt-d system has no signs of autonomous activation. It has reached a zero point and I have lost control."
"Lord Cardeas, rx-0 starts to speed up, full speed is ten percent, twenty percent, forty percent, eighty percent... Lord Cardeas! The speed of rx-0 has been increased. One hundred and eighty percent of what was expected! That pilot has unlocked the rx-0 and is still modifying the rx-0's OS at the same time!"
"We have completely lost control of rx-0, and now only the data reception and feedback function of rx-0 is left!"
Cartiers turned back and saw that the rx-0 on the big screen had now completely turned into a blue light, and then it dived into the small gravel belt in the predetermined test area.
Cardeas was a little flustered, but he still kept a serious expression on his face: "Record all the feedback information, and don't miss anything, so that the rescue team can be ready to set off at any time!"
After finishing speaking, Cartiers looked at the four people who had walked into the control area at this time, three women and one man. One of the girls, Cartiers, had already seen him just now and was called Yao by Xiao Ran, and the other The two girls, Cardeas, looked at each other with slightly surprised expressions on their brows.
The appearance of the three girls can be said to be exactly the same. Even the clothes they wear have exactly the same style and texture. There are only some differences in shape and color. This reflects the fact that the three bodies have the same origin but are themselves. different characteristics.
One is cold and arrogant, one is gentle, and the other is full of grandeur and peace.
"Triples or clones?" Such a thought popped up in Cardeas's mind, and then he walked towards Yao: "Miss Yao, something seems not quite right about the current situation. Do you need to pay attention to it?" Rescue at any time?"
Yao looked at the nervous staff around him, pursed his lips and smiled and said to Cardeas: "Mr. Cardeas, don't worry, the master's ability is very powerful. He should be helping you test the ultimate performance of this machine. , and at the same time modify the deficiencies in the body's OS. This kind of operation is a normal thing for the owner."
Hearing what Yao said, Cartiers was a little horrified, but the sudden sound of the staff's voice in his ears made him focus again on the big screen in the control room.
"Lord Cardeas, we found that the instantaneous response of the machine has been improved by thirty percent, the flexibility of the machine has been increased by fifty percent, the thruster power has also been increased by fifteen percent, and the instantaneous burst power has been increased by Fifty percent.”
"But this is incredible. How could humans be able to withstand the pressure caused by such a huge instantaneous steering? The g-force that the body has to bear now is more than twice as high as before!"
"Report, the body information feedback NT-D system has been turned on. No, no, it is partially turned on. There is no reference to the corresponding situation in the database, Lord Cardeas! I saw here that the NT-D part of the body is turned on. Performance has once again improved exponentially!”
Cardeas's mind was completely occupied by shock at this time. The words in his ears made it too late for him to think. It seemed that he didn't quite understand what the situation was now. He was responsible for the development of the machine. When it comes out, Cardeas himself should know what kind of strength this machine should be able to exert.
But Cartiers is only a regular technician, let alone a pilot. He cannot truly understand the difference between the expected data and the actual effectiveness after the machine is manufactured, let alone understand a machine. What incredible chemical reactions can occur when a good body meets a good pilot.
They used their understanding to create this machine body, and Xiao Ran used his own understanding to operate and modify this machine body, adjusting and modifying every OS link of the Unicorn Gundam with the eyes of an S-class pilot. Even if the changes in each link can ultimately bring an improvement to the body of only 0.01, after countless links, the body has also undergone incredible changes due to the innovation of the OS.
Although Xiao Ran is not a new human being, he is also a spiritual person like the new humans. Even if he cannot activate nt-d from the soul level, his huge mental power and telekinesis can also make him The nt-d system on the Unicorn Gundam is truly effective.
Xiao Ran only turned on part of the functions of nt-d, and increased the power converted from these functions. It also made the body complete the change of form, which brought a huge higher multiplication factor to the body. Increase, and even so, the Unicorn Gundam shuttled through the meteorite belt without any problems under Xiao Ran's driving.
After maintaining such operation at almost full power for a few minutes, Xiao Ran slowly stopped the machine and began to gradually stabilize and reduce the various performances of the machine. He turned around and returned to the secret factory of Cartiers.
After Xiao Ran drove the machine back to the hangar, and after the air in the hangar reached the safe limit and the door automatically opened, Cartiers rushed in, anxiously floating up and stopping outside the open cockpit. , looked at Xiao Ran in disbelief: "How did you do it?"
"That machine has such potential." Xiao Ran took off his helmet and said: "I just used all the potential of that machine, but if a new human with more powerful abilities controls this machine, it should still be able to control the machine." It can do things that make people feel even more incredible.”
"The concept of this machine is very good. The increase in ability brought about by the change of form is very unique. Needless to say, the performance of the machine itself in the original form. The increase in ability in the second form will increase due to the ability of the pilot. , the use of the mental skeleton allows this machine to also have the possibility to reach higher. If it is an infinitely powerful new human being, then maybe this machine will also become infinitely stronger, but after all, there will still be a ceiling, but Judging from the current situation, this ceiling is probably something that no one can touch."
"It just so happens that I can barely be regarded as a new human being. It's not surprising that I can squeeze out the capabilities of this machine. Moreover, the OS of this machine itself has many problems. From my perspective, the OS Modifications are the only way to truly reveal the full capabilities of this aircraft."
