In Gnakuli, Xiao Ran stood at the feet of the Strike Gundam, with his arms folded and his head lowered, thinking, while Luo Jure got in and out of the cockpit of the Strike Gundam, climbing up and down a little bit at a time. He is studying some data and construction concepts of Strike Gundam. The most important thing is those technologies that are not used in the red machine of Gundam Heretic, in order to compare the difference between Strike Gundam and red machine.
Xiao Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at Luo Jul, who was completely immersed in his own world. He sighed helplessly, not because of what happened to Luo Jul, but because Xiao Ran didn't get anything from what he had just thought about.
In his thinking, Xiao Ran assumed that the time he left this world was the end of the final battle between ZAFT and the Earth Alliance. Although there was still more than half a year between now and the final battle, it was only that long. Here, Xiao Ran thought about it, but he couldn't find a machine that suited him, satisfied him, and wanted to take it away except for the miscellaneous military machine.
In the world of Gundam SEED, among the two lines that Xiao Ran can currently access, the three machines of freedom, justice, and divine will are naturally good. Xiao Ran can't help but want them, but now these three machines are not even visible. Appeared, even if it appeared, the level of the body would be at least level 1. Leaving aside the possibility of getting it, Xiao Ran simply did not have the ability to pilot a level body. If piloting a C-level body could only exert 80% of its performance, a pilot-level body would be It's hard to say what kind of performance the machine can perform.
As for the several Heretic Gundams that have appeared today, before modification, the body level should be between D+ and C-. Unfortunately, the red, blue and gold machines have already had their owners and have been modified. Except for Luo Jure, The owners of the other two machines are not simple characters, and there is no possibility of obtaining any of the three machines.
As for the five G-series Gundams, all of them should undoubtedly be C-class units. Among the five Gundams of Strike, Holy Shield, Storm, Duel, and Thunder, the Holy Shield self-destruction should be gone, and the Thunder was cut in half by Kira. Exploded, the duel has always been impossible to obtain in Yizhak's hands, and the only two machines that can be obtained are the Storm and the Assault. Xiao Ran can only leave the Storm Gundam to Diego to drive. Although Xiao Ran is quite satisfied with the artillery combat type of Storm Gundam, especially with the addition of the phase transfer armor in his hand, it can definitely become an excellent turret. But the Storm Gundam also has shortcomings, that is, it is weak in fighting in the atmosphere. The non-flying Storm Gundam has poor mobility and is not the type that Xiao Ran wants at all. If it were just for the plot, Xiao Ran would give up this machine.
Xiao Ran never thought that Strike Gundam was not suitable for his style, and he didn't know how to change the body if he entered the next world. Should he use his little hands? His hands could not lift the equipment backpack that was too big for his body. In other words, Xiao Ran, who needed to replace the backpack to show the maximum combat effectiveness of the machine, gave up for Tongtong for this reason.
There are also three machines that enhance people, disaster, forbidden, and robbery. Xiao Ran is somewhat interested in the deformable Robbery Gundam, but the weapons equipped on the machine are not that satisfactory. Although there are modifications, it may be able to I can’t tell if I can’t capture it now.
What about the other organisms that emerged? There are still many machines in the side story, but Xiao Ran has no ability to contact them at all. Unless he completely abandons the Archangel now, gives up the little advantages he has accumulated since he came to this world, turns around and hugs Luo Qiu tightly. Your thighs may come into contact with other bodies in the Gaiden. But if you really do this, it is simply a matter of neglecting the fundamentals.
In fact, in Xiao Ran's mind, he hopes to get a fast machine with the ability to fly within the earth, preferably a medium-range machine, which can be both near and far.
There are quite a few machines that I can think of, but there are none that I am satisfied with. No wonder Xiao Ran sighs. When he comes to this familiar world, Xiao Ran certainly doesn't want to just leave with a miscellaneous military machine. Even if it is not a Gundam, he hopes to at least Being able to obtain a C-class airframe would at least bring them closer to other participants, and also allow them to ignore a series of problems caused by the replacement of airframes after upgrading D-class driving skills.
Although in comparison, Xiao Ran would rather drive a D-class machine and operate it as directed by his arm, which can fully exert 100% of its capabilities, and even perform beyond normal performance at certain times. He is also unwilling to drive a C-class machine that can only exert 80% of its performance. He must know that the remaining 20% may be the key to victory and death. Once he cannot fully control the machine, at a certain critical moment If you issue a wrong order, you will die and you will not deserve sympathy.
But what Xiao Ran wanted was at least a C-class body, but what he preferred to pilot was a D-class body, which was not the same level at all. The gap between different levels is not only a matter of the strength and performance of the machine, but more importantly, whether the pilot can fully utilize the performance of the machine. Once the D+ level machine is fully utilized, it does not mean that it cannot be defeated and cannot be operated well. A C-class body.
The reason why Xiao Ran treats Luo Jure so enthusiastically is not only because Luo Jul is the protagonist of the side story, but also because he knows that Luo Jul is definitely a mechanical MS in this world. As the strongest expert in the world, as long as Luo is asked to help in these aspects, it can definitely be done with a little effort and time. For example, making some modifications to the C-class body, downgrading it to a D-class body, but still maintaining it. It is possible to become a C-class body again. In addition, some equipment interfaces, plug-in interfaces, etc. are reserved to facilitate the modification and enhancement of the body. It can be said that the workload is very large, almost remodeling the entire body.
As for what Xiao Ran asked for, Xiao Ran only knew Luo Jure in this world who could do it, so he was full of enthusiasm after seeing Luo, deliberately stirred up various topics, and finally invited Luo to Archangel. The reason why the number came was entirely because of the plan he had in mind.
Before meeting Luo Qiuer here, Xiao Ran originally wanted to leave the Archangel and join Orb when the Archangel arrived in Orb. He also hoped to find Luo Jul who was working near Orb. Well, he used the information about Strike Gundam in his hands to get Orb to help him pay for inviting Luo Jul to modify the body. But now that he met Luo Jul in advance, it seems that the relationship between the two has become very good. , naturally there is no need for Orb’s participation. However, the information on Strike Gundam still has to be given to Orb, but the cost is to replace it.
"Since we can't find a suitable machine, we can only ask Orb to create a suitable machine." Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Jure who was slowly climbing down from the Strike Gundam. , thinking in his mind: "Of course, he is also indispensable."
Seeing Luo walking in front of him, Xiao Ran smiled and asked, "Is there anything gained?"
"The gains are really quite a lot. Without affecting the optimization of movement, the joint structure can be slightly simplified and strengthened. No wonder this thing called Gundam can bear more weight in terms of armor, and the structure is also very compact. , there is no need to worry about the situation where the body cannot withstand problems due to some rapid changes in direction.”
Luo finished speaking with excitement, but also said with some pity: "It's a pity that I can't get the parameters of the armor that can change the color of the body, but even if I get the data, I can't make it without the corresponding equipment. By the way, Xiao Ran, can I actually operate the machine?"
"Of course there is no problem." Xiao Ran smiled, pondered for a moment and whispered: "Do you know General Halbarton who is in charge of this project?"
"That Earth Army general who was captured." Luo Jure nodded strangely: "I know, what's wrong?"
Xiao Ran tilted his head and looked at it as if nothing had happened, and said softly: "Because I belong to the Secret Service Department and have completely independent rights of action. He gave me a piece of parameter information on the body before and asked me to make my own decision based on the situation. As the final guarantee after the Strike Gundam is destroyed, no one except me on the Archangel knows if they are interested."
"Well, really?" Luo's eyes suddenly lit up.
"We'll talk about that later, but you also have to promise me that if one day the Archangel sinks and I die, you must hand over the information to the Earth Army. This can be regarded as fulfilling my promise to General Halbarton, and it's also me. Insurance." Xiao Ran patted Luo's shoulder indifferently and said leisurely: "But if I don't die, the Archangel doesn't sink, and the Earth Army treats us as abandoned children, then I think they will definitely I don’t care about these things anymore, what do you think, Luo?”
Luo scratched his head and thought for a moment, then smiled in agreement: "Hey, I think... you are right."
Not far away, Madoc and Mu from the maintenance team looked at Xiao Ran and Luo, looking confused about the situation. Madoc asked Mu worriedly: "Brother Mu, it doesn't matter if Xiao Ran is like this. What?"
"I don't know what he is planning, maybe the captain knows." Mu shook his head and replied in a low voice: "But Xiao Ran is definitely the kind of guy who sells people and counts the money for him, and he won't let himself suffer. Don’t worry, he is still on the Archangel, and no matter who he is for, he will not let anything go wrong on the Archangel.”
"The captain has agreed, what else can I say." Madoc spread his hands helplessly.
