The person who suddenly opened the door was Cagalli, and her words flashed a light in Xiao Ran's heart, and she instantly felt a little more clear. The Storm Gundam would have joined Orb according to the normal direction, but due to changes in the plot, especially his participation, Diego was not captured by the Archangel, which directly led to Diego not knowing Mirialia. It is impossible to say that he was worried about the Archangel or Miriam and chose to join Orb in the battle in the Storm Gundam.
When Diego asked to meet Xiao Ran, he certainly wanted to know why Xiao Ran showed mercy to them and saved them. Of course, this so-called rescue only meant that Xiao Ran did not save Baofeng and Xunlei after they were all together. He threw them into the sea and ignored them, but took them to the island to ensure their safety. Xiao Ran's behavior made Diego suspicious, so he asked to see Xiao Ran and ask why.
Diego's idea directly led to the release of the Prometheus mission. The release of the mission was an opportunity for the plot to return. The reward of five thousand combat points for the return was not too much in Xiao Ran's opinion, because Diego It can be regarded as an important combat force in the three-ship alliance. It played a great role on the battlefield. I don’t know how many miscellaneous soldiers were eliminated. It was also because of him that Yitzhak rebelled in the end and ended up fighting for the enemy. Victory laid part of the foundation.
After the mission is successful, an exclusive machine will be rewarded. If it is a quota, he can use this quota on the Black Heretic, and then the task of assisting or directly destroying a super machine can be given up. It would be even more profitable if it were to reward a real machine. A camp side mission can actually reward an exclusive machine. There is such a big difference between the mission's success reward and failure penalty. The key problem lies in Nigel, who should have died.
Xiao Ran now not only allows Nigel to survive, but also wants Nigel to join Orb's camp according to the mission requirements. This is already considered a redundant part. It may also save Nigel and strengthen the strength of the three-ship alliance. With the hidden rewards after that, it makes sense that the rewards would be huge.
After calling Xiao Ran, Cagalli did not follow Xiao Ran to the ward where Diego was being 'imprisoned'. Instead, she went in another direction and walked away back to back with Xiao Ran. When Xiao Ran reached the door of Diego's ward, she also He turned around and glanced at Cagalli. When he saw her walking into Aslan's room, he shook his head and smiled. He nodded to the two soldiers guarding Diego, opened the door and walked in.
At this time, Diego was lying on the bed with his arms pillowed on his head. After seeing Xiao Ran, especially the mask on his face, he was shocked and twitched the corners of his mouth, and quickly sat up from the bed: "You are the one with the black mask?" The pilot of the machine?"
"It's me." Xiao Ran nodded, sat down on a chair in the room, and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Diego looked at Xiao Ran's face with confusion, as if he wanted to see what kind of face he looked like under the mask, and asked with some confusion: "Do we know each other?"
"No." Xiao Ran shook his head decisively.
Diego continued to ask: "Do you know the pilot of Xunlei?"
Xiao Ran replied again: "I don't know."
"Then why did you show mercy to us at that time?" Diego shrugged, spread his hands and said, "If you don't know each other, why did you save us after destroying our body?"
Xiao Ran groaned softly and said, "Because we are not enemies."
"Not the enemy!?" Diego's expression suddenly became a little strange, but surprise dominated the majority: "I know that your aircraft was destroyed by our people once in North Africa. Could it be that the person you piloted at that time Isn't that you? You don't know that after we snatched the Gundam, we chased the Archangel from Heliopolis to the Earth. There were so many battles in the middle, and we even wiped out all the Eighth Fleet of your Earth Army. You actually said we are not enemies?"
"Yes, I was the one who piloted that machine in North Africa at that time. But we are not enemies, and neither are the Archangel and you." Xiao Ran said in a calm tone: "Your enemy is only the Earth Army. I am not the Archangel. Not soon, we will be comrades on the same ship, fighting for the peace of this world."
Diego looked at Xiao Ran blankly, and said in disbelief: "Who are you? You are not the Earth Army, but you are on the Archangel, and you want to help the Archangel fight with us, and in the end, you turned my body into a Like that? Are you kidding me or teasing me?"
"Is there any difference?" Xiao Ran pretended to be silent and thought for a moment, then made a little joke to Diego. After seeing Diego's face turn red with anger, he said with a smile: "In Heliopolis At that time, I was just a civilian of Orb. From the time you attacked Heliopolis to North Africa, I was in the Earth Army. From the time the North African aircraft was destroyed to now, I am a major of Orb's defense force."
"You have really rich experience." Diego said something strangely: "As a soldier of a neutral country, you are not afraid of involving your own country when you join the battle between the two armies without permission?"
Xiao Ran shook his head slightly: "Even without me, Orb would be involved in the war sooner or later. What I did is not a bad thing for Orb."
Diego angrily expressed that he didn't understand Xiao Ran's thoughts at all. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Black Heretic, he felt that the Archangel and Strike Gundam would have been destroyed, which would not have made him a prisoner of the Orb Order. What's going on
If it weren't for the enemy's Dark Heresy, who was stabbing the Storm Gundam with one blow after another
And what’s going on with that confident smile of yours.
Diego felt that he was going crazy, but thinking that he was still a prisoner of Orb, the masked man in his eyes let him go again. He suppressed all the anger in his heart and asked seriously: " I just want to ask you why you let us go."
Xiao Ran blinked his eyes. He thought he would have to talk to himself for a while before turning to the topic. Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to change the topic before mentioning Diego. He smiled slightly and said, "I hope you can join in for the time being." Orb.”
"What! Join Orb?" Diego yelled with his eyes wide open, "Are you sure you're not joking?"
"I'm sure." Xiao Ran nodded and said: "I hope that you and the pilots of Thunder Gundam can temporarily join Orb until they can help Orb overcome the current difficulties. Similarly, we will completely repair Thunder and Storm, and replace the two aircraft. I will give it to you two to continue to be your body."
"Impossible!" Diego refused without even thinking.
"You and the green-haired man died because I was merciful, and I brought you out of the sea. As a human being, you must be grateful." Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "If you don't agree, I will always keep you." You will be detained until you agree. If you do not agree when I need you, then I will not waste my time on you. Later we will send the news that the battlefield has been cleared to ZAFT. Of course, the message will not appear on it. Any words from Thunder, Storm, and you two pilots.”
Diego's mouth opened wide, as if he didn't expect that the masked man would be so shameless. After a long time, he murmured: "You threaten me."
Xiao Ran waved his hand and touched his chin with his right hand: "No, in addition to threats, I also offer inducements. If you agree to my request, I can even introduce you to a girlfriend. I can tell at a glance that you are a little virgin. You haven’t been in love yet, so you’re dead like this, tsk tsk, by the way, Orb also has many adjusters, there are so many beauties, I know several of them in Shuguang Club, how about it, are you interested?”
Diego's eyes when he looked at Xiao Ran completely changed. What kind of eyes it was, contemptuous, speechless, helpless, and a little bit excited, but this excitement could not affect his decision. After shaking his head He raised his hands and said, "Does that mean it won't work if I don't agree? Well, please introduce some more beauties to me."
Xiao Ran chuckled, stood up and took a deep look at Diego: "If you want to reassure me and then attack me, I don't think you are my opponent yet. I'll leave the green hair to you. I believe you can't It will disappoint me."
"Of course not." Diego replied with a smile on his face. Looking at Xiao Ran's back, his fists were clenched tightly. His whole body was completely tense, but in the end he still watched Xiao Ran leave. Closed the door.
"Hey." After a long time, there was a helpless sigh in the room: "Why did you meet such a scoundrel? Just think of it as repaying him with your life."
