After seeing Xiao Ran and the others away, Andrew looked up at the sun that was still hanging in the sky. The dazzling light made him squint his eyes: "The Berserker and his guardian? What will the encounter on the battlefield be like? Haha , be careful of people from Orb to LANT, what do you mean, guardian."

While Tiger Andrew was thinking about what Xiao Ran's last words meant, Xiao Ran, who was sitting in the car, also closed his eyes and thought: "The support has been advanced, and it's not ZAFT from Gibraltar on Earth. Reinforcements from the military base, eight additional pilots and eight mobile suits. This does not include the two Duel Storm Gundams that are about to come from the Gibraltar base. What is going on! If you count Gibraltar With the support of Andrew, plus the current strength of Andrew's troops, there are at least fifteen or more aircrafts. With only Strike Gundam and two Sky Overlords, it is simply impossible for the Archangel to break out from here. Here is another Not in the universe, how could there be so many evacuation routes?"

"The inexplicable support was also very strange. It actually came directly from the LANT mainland. Although I had prepared for it, I didn't expect that the participants would gradually join the plot so quickly. Now the Earth Army and ZAFT have not yet In the event of a larger-scale battle, it would not be surprising that ZAFT would send more troops to the Archangel and Strike Gundam, which have shown greater combat power than in the original plot so far."

"The number of LANT soldiers is so small compared to the Earth Army that there is no comparison. If there are truly outstanding people, the chances of getting ahead in ZAFT are very high, not to mention those participants with special abilities. ZAFT is It is also very simple to investigate the true identity of those people. If you investigate from other aspects without contacting the person, the identities of all participants are basically impeccable. In other words, ZAFT will definitely treat the participants in non-confidential tasks. It’s quite reassuring to use.”

"Perhaps ZAFT's current missions are in line with the lack of personnel and are in urgent need of outstanding personnel, and they are unclassified tasks. Until now, the Archangel meets these conditions. In other words... Join ZAFT's mission Are participants more likely to have access to the main plot than Earth Army participants? Is this the advantage of joining the ZAFT camp?"

"As for the Earth Army, although there are many soldiers so far, the disadvantage of backward weapons cannot be ignored. Once the battle begins, the possibility of victory is not high, so participants who join the Earth Army also have advantages, and that is the hidden secrets of the main mission. Evaluation rewards, the Earth Army is not stingy with the talents of MS pilots. Presumably most of the participants who have joined the Earth Army by now have obtained higher military ranks. The rewards of the system cannot be faked, and that is It is something that can really strengthen its own strength, but because the Earth Army has too many battle lines, and it regards the Archangel as an abandoned child, it will be more difficult to get in touch with the main line. Speaking of which, both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. "

Xiao Ran's closed eyes suddenly opened, he sighed for a moment, and thought to himself: "No, no, what I should be thinking about now is how to get the Archangel out of here safely. Why am I getting further and further away from this place? Hey, this time it's not possible." It’s really troublesome. I don’t know whether it was God’s arrangement or luck, but Luo showed up here in advance. Could it be that the key to the Archangel’s escape this time was Luo and his recovery house team.”

"It seems that I did the right thing by asking Luo to enhance the Strike Gundam before." Xiao Ran shook his head, with a sad look on his face: "But if you want me to fly the Sky King to fight, it will cost my life. I have to do it. Think of a way."

The people arranged by Andrew sent the three Xiao Ran to the city and then left. What Xiao Ran heard just now in Andrew's reception room also made him unable to let go. He could already determine that among the eight additional pilots , there are definitely participants, even if the number is not large, as long as one or two people will bring huge trouble to the Archangel and him.

So after arriving in the city, she walked around and returned directly to the place where she parked her car. Several times on the way, Cagalli wanted to question Xiao Ran about the meaning of his previous actions, but she actually agreed to Tiger's invitation and even believed in it. Not only did they talk about how happy they were, but they even hugged each other before leaving, just like they were good brothers.

But Kira, who had been in contact with Xiao Ran for a long time and knew a lot about Xiao Ran, saw Xiao Ran's thoughtful expression. Even if she wanted to ask questions, she held it back in her heart. She even stopped Cagalli several times to avoid interrupting Xiao Ran. After thinking about it, I returned to the Archangel without saying anything.

As soon as the car was parked, Xiao Ran looked around, and after not finding the person he was looking for, he jumped out of the car, leaving Kira and Cagalli behind without saying a word, and hurriedly Run towards the bridge. When he arrived at the bridge, Xiao Ran didn't find the second person he was looking for, Ma Liu. After patting his head, he suddenly realized that there was nothing going on at this time and Malu would not usually stay on the bridge. After wasting a few minutes, he finally found her in the captain's room.

Xiao Ran's first words when he saw Ma Liu made Ma Liu frown: "ZAFT has new reinforcements, a lot of them, eight MS."

"How did you know!?" Ma Liu asked with a frown.

Xiao Ran said directly without hiding anything: "We met Tiger today, and something happened that he invited us to be a guest. I heard it at that time."

"The situation is urgent?" Ma Liu looked at Xiao Ran's serious expression and couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckled: "It's rare to see you speak so directly."

Ma Liu noticed Xiao Ran's nervousness and anxiety. When he heard that Xiao Ran went to the tiger's place as a guest, he was also worried and surprised. However, he did not ask what happened. Instead, he used his own way to make Xiao Ran calm down and relax. Come down.

"Can you still laugh at this time?" Xiao Ran rolled his eyes and was speechless.

"Am I going to be sad or nervous?" Ma Liu looked at Xiao Ran and shook his head gently and said, "Even if I do that, it will be of no use. It will not solve the current problem at all."

Xiao Ran pursed his lips. He couldn't say to Ma Liu that you don't understand. If there were no participants, Xiao Ran would not be so serious and would not rush to Ma Liu to report the situation. Just like when he was in the universe, although Xiao Ran was so frightened at that time that he almost did something stupid, now he is much better, at least he has calmed down a lot, but even if he is calm, the tension and anxiety in his heart are still unavoidable. Because Xiao Ran was not that confident in facing the participant, there were actually too many skills that the participant could awaken.

"Anyway, you must be prepared. This battle may be more difficult than before. If you are not careful, you may be sunk." Xiao Ran patted Ma Liu on the shoulder and felt that he was not affecting others too much. The mood was gone, so he put a smile on his face again: "Of course, I will also make preparations and won't let anything happen to the Archangel."

Ma Liu looked at Xiao Ran blankly. She had almost never seen Xiao Ran's forced smile. After seeing this smile, she seemed to feel that the situation might be more serious than imagined: "I know, I will Let others prepare."

Xiao Ran left quickly. The Archangel was about to face numerous enemies, and even participants who were very likely to appear. The current combat power alone was irresistible, and if you wanted to gain new combat power, There is currently only one person who can help him - Luo Jure.

It's strange to say that when Xiao Ran came back, he didn't see Luo there, but when Xiao Ran came to Gnaku, he saw Luo Zheng and a large group of people from the maintenance team playing with the Strike Gundam. Xiao Ran quickly ran away when he saw Luo Passed over: "Luo!"

Luo looked at Xiao Ran happily, waved to Xiao Ran and then slowly climbed down from the Strike Gundam. When he came to Xiao Ran, he smiled: "Come back, I went back to find a lot of materials today. The modified body will definitely surprise you."

Only then did Xiao Ran realize the reason for Luo's absence. He nodded and said, "I said I couldn't find you just now. When will the transformation of the machine be completed?"

"I can't tell you the specific time." Luo scratched his hair and turned to look at the Strike Gundam that had already taken apart several replacement positions, and said: "The weapon interface on the shoulder needs to be modified, and it needs to be strengthened so that it can be hung directly. That huge physical sword requires a lot of movement in the joints, especially the waist, legs, and hands. I looked at Kirana's battle records, and I feel that these places restrict him a lot, and there are other aspects too. Too much cannot be accomplished in a short time.”

"Although I'm sorry, I still want to trouble you to complete the modification of the machine body as soon as possible." Xiao Ran frowned and said: "The current situation is a bit delicate. There are a lot of reinforcements from ZAFT, and the Gibraltar base is also There are reinforcements heading here, and without the Strike Gundam, the Archangel is just a living target. Ha, actually, even if there is a Strike Gundam, I don't know if this one machine can resist it."

"Is the situation serious?" Luo was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Ran nodded and said affirmatively: "Among the reinforcements are the enhanced men who defected to ZAFT, as well as the two Gundams they snatched from Heliopolis. I think there are at least fifteen machines in total. I don't think they are wrong. "

"A pair of fifteen!?" Luo's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "This is impossible. Even if I complete the transformation of the body now, it is impossible for Strike Gundam to reach that level. Even if Kira has Even the battle record that looks so awesome can’t be done.”

"That's right." Xiao Ran turned his head to look at Gene, who was standing aside and had no effect, and said, "If I can fight... I can at least protect the Archangel."

Suddenly, Xiao Ran turned his head to Luo: "Luo, please, I don't want to see the Archangel sunk like this, I don't want to see the people I like die fighting here, and I don't want to see my friends and students follow. The Archangel was destroyed together, I know you definitely have a way, please help me."

After listening to Xiao Ran's words, Luo was silent for a long time, lowering his head and thinking. When he raised his head to look at Xiao Ran, his brows were still furrowed: "To be honest, although I have an MS, that MS has already been installed. If you are labeled as a waste dealer, you cannot participate in the war between ZAFT and the Earth Army, so I cannot help you fight."

Hearing what Luo said, Xiao Ran felt a knot in his heart, but before he had any other thoughts, Luo's face changed instantly, and he smiled, and said in a frivolous tone: "Hey, although I can't do it for you Fight, but you can fight on your own. After spending the past few days with the people on the Archangel, I also feel that everyone is a good person, and I am very willing to help them. Also, aren’t we friends? Isn’t it normal to help friends? Yes."

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment. After Luo said hello to the people in the maintenance team, he turned over and got into a car: "Follow me, I will give you a gift."
