Chapter 1032 Participants Appearing
(Yi Zui didn't belittle AS, but is there anything special about the AS that appeared before the Arrowhead? Even the Arrowhead's performance in the animation is not outrageously strong, and the follow-up body is another matter , when the world plot has been completely changed, the follow-up machine of the Crossbowman has not been developed at all. Even if other forces research the λ-DRIVER, it will not be Mithril in this plot. In addition, the number of third-generation machines is a problem , the animation also seems to mention the cost of AS, the protagonist will also have other participants in the development when he is leisure, so it is allowed to come to Luo for technical support and not allow other participants to come to technical support, this is too early It was arranged, and a big BOSS was set in this plot from the very beginning.)
The meeting place of the Armistice Agreement was determined to be another big country that also did not really participate in the war, the country in the sea with countless kangaroos, Australia. Armistice Agreement Almost all countries in the world have sent their own missions to the Australian city of Sydney.
Apart from signing an armistice agreement, these countries also hope to get an answer from Xiao Ran in this meeting, whether nuclear energy will be permanently sealed, or when it will be reactivated.
For some small countries that do not have nuclear weapons except for small nuclear energy, even AS needs to be purchased from other countries, they wish that nuclear energy will remain dusty forever, and for those countries that have extremely high demand for nuclear energy The seal is already hurting them.
On the Japanese side, apart from Xiao Ran and the others taking the Son of Danu to go there, there was also a mission that headed directly in the open, and the speed of arrival was much faster than the people on the Son of Danu. Before the Son of Slave had traveled half the distance, the mission had already arrived.
However, Xiao Ran and the others walked slowly in the Son of Danu, and Xiao Ran was sure that this meeting would not be as calm and peaceful as it seemed, and the atmosphere on the ship was therefore more tense.
After staying in the Son of Danu all the time, Xiao Ran, who was bored, wandered around for a while, and then walked into the Ganaku. At this time, a group of technicians in the Ganaku, led by Luo, were surrounding several planes with only Transformers of standard weapons were busy.
Five Mithril pilots, including Sagara Sousuke, Kruzer, and Melissa Mao, were sitting in the cockpit of the airframe, performing various actions in the cockpit according to the orders of the airframe adjusters. Through feedback and calculation, each parameter of the body is adjusted more specifically, so that the body can be more in line with their control.
However, because these pilots who drive the AS have long been accustomed to the driving style of the AS, changing the driving style of manual control and motion assistance to a deformed fighter will expose various problems. The cockpit of these people has been properly improved, and the same motion assistance equipment as AS has been installed, so that they can successfully operate the deformed fighter like driving AS.
At the same time, a co-pilot is added to each main engineer, a co-pilot who is better at flying, almost all born as orthodox pilots, is used to assist flight control in fighter plane form, balance assistance in fortress form, etc. and other work, but combat matters such as aiming and shooting are still carried out by the main engineer himself.
Such a situation also led to the deformation fighters driven by Sagara Sousuke and others. In addition to being able to exert full combat power in the mobile suit form, the fighter form is basically only used for running and rushing, but it can be done in the fortress form. It is impossible and impossible for a pilot like Xiao Ran to perform such an assault action as a mobile gliding attack, but at least it is possible to display the combat effectiveness of the transforming fighter to a greater extent than driving an AS.
This is still the situation encountered by the battle-hardened mercenaries of the Son of Danu, and the several airframes currently handed over to Japan are mostly used for decoration and deterrence. In terms of the combat effectiveness that can be displayed , even slightly worse than those of Mithril.
Only two pilots can conduct a single battle. The air combat pilot is in charge of the air combat pilot, and the ground battle is in charge of the AS pilot. In the fortress form, one controls the flight and the other controls the attack. There is not much hope for special operations. Only after forming a certain scale can the real combat capability be reflected.
Xiao Ran walked into the Gnakuri and didn't disturb these busy people. He just watched quietly by the side. It wasn't until Luo gave the technicians a thumbs up that he noticed that Xiao Ran stood beside him for a long time. , while wiping his head with a clean towel, he walked towards Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran nodded to Luo, then looked at several deformed fighters, and asked: "How about it, how far can it be played after adjustment?"
"It's okay. Driving a transforming fighter can always do more things than driving an AS. Even if they can only fight in the fortress form and mobile suit form, it is enough for them." Luo wiped his face. , put the towel around his neck, and said: "A practice test will be arranged for them in an hour, do you want to guide them yourself too?"
"Test?" Xiao Ran thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, there is no need for this at the moment, let Al Elf train them more brutally while the meeting is still a few days away."
"That's right, if you were to be the test target, it would be too depressing for their enthusiasm." Luo laughed, as if he suddenly thought of something, patted his head and said to Xiao Ran: "El Elf and Captain It seems that some information has been discovered, and it is being confirmed now, it seems to be related to the amalgam, you'd better go and see if you can find something."
Xiao Ran suddenly turned his head to look at Luo, frowned and said, "When did it happen?"
"Not long ago, the captain was called back to the bridge after arranging an exercise here." Luo scratched his hair, and said, "But it seems to be related to something that the captain did a long time ago. It's about the investigation."
Xiao Ran nodded, feeling a little strange in his heart, what could Tessa have been investigating, and she never told him about it.
Farewell to Luo, Xiao Ran went directly to the bridge of the battleship. In the bridge, Tessa sat on the captain's seat, and Al Elf took the place of one of the staff members and kept typing on the keyboard. On the screen, pictures are displayed one after another and they are constantly switching.
Xiao Ran looked up, and most of those pictures were factories, each production line was manufacturing the Soviet Union's third-generation AS, and the dates on the pictures were basically a month before the neutron jammer was activated. In addition to these pictures of factories and production lines, there are also pictures of several people, most of which were also taken from a distance.
In one of the photos, Xiao Ran saw a person he also knew, a young man with the same silver hair as Tessa, a face that was almost the same as Tessa but more distinct and tough, and a young man in a black windbreaker.
After seeing this man's photo, Xiao Ran also reflexively looked at Tessa beside him, Tessa with astonishment, loss, heartache and sadness on her face.
"Reynard?" Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes slightly. This young boy, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old like Tessa, is the only one in this world who is willing to make him his follower. , a pilot with excellent AS driving skills, who can independently develop an advanced AS, a small AS, a whisperer with considerable technical ability, a person in this world who is similar to Luo's ability to some extent people.
A person who also knows how to fight and has superb fighting ability, who also understands technology and has excellent technical ability, a person who can be regarded as excellent in mentality, not bad in intelligence, completely in line with Xiao Ran's choice, and able to adapt to the mission of Promesis.
In the photo of Leonard appearing, a young man wearing a white coat with his hands in his pockets and looking about twenty-five or sixteen years old was standing beside him. The two seemed to be communicating with each other, but In front of the two of them was a picture of huge containers being loaded into a large transport plane one after another.
At the same time, there were some public faces guarding with weapons in the photo, as well as two small ASs who were always protecting Leonard's side, but Xiao Ran was more attracted by the young man in the white coat. s eyes.
Xiao Ran suddenly asked: "Who is this?"
"My brother..." Tessa lowered her head and replied in a low voice: "Twin brothers, the brother who joined the amalgam and tried to start a world war."
Xiao Ran paused, and lightly patted Tessa on the shoulder: "Of course I know that the one with the silver hair is your brother, Leonard the Whisperer, and I have information about him. Besides, if you both look the same, even if you are a fool You can tell I'm asking someone else, who is the guy in the white coat who looks like a technician."
"Ah!" Tessa raised her head and looked at Xiao Ran blankly, and then realized that she had mistaken the subject of Xiao Ran's question, her face flushed slightly, and she said embarrassedly: "Now I only know that this person should be called Taitai Rot, used to be a mercenary, but now my brother works as a technician."
Al Elf stood up from the chair, walked to Xiao Ran, and explained the specific situation to Xiao Ran in more detailed words: "Because of the problems with the third-generation AS, Captain Tessa and Mithril started Investigating the source of the third-generation AS is of course aimed at the Soviet Union."
"Although in our opinion, it is not surprising that more third-generation ASs with λ-drivers can be produced with the energy of the cooperation between the Soviet Union and the amalgam, but from Mithril's point of view, the number of third-generation ASs is too large. Too much is not normal. When both the Soviet Union and the United States, and the more advanced United States, are unable to mass-produce the third-generation AS, the Soviet-made third-generation AS has already begun mass production and obtained a certain amount. , the location of the source factory of the technology has become the information that Mithril needs to investigate the most.”
"Although I got some information afterwards, I didn't get the real source of these equipment and technologies. It is not until today that I have determined where the source of the technical support and equipment support received by the Soviet Union is. It is these two people in the photo. One of them, Leonard, a senior cadre of the amalgam, has an independent research institution and executive force, and is one of the most powerful and influential people in the amalgam."
"The second term, Taiterot, is currently the head of the research institute under Leonard. The third-generation AS mass production technology of the Soviet Union and the amalgam should be provided by him as the leader. According to the analysis, it should be a A person with excellent technical ability, and at the same time, according to the original identity of the other party's mercenary, the time of appearing next to Leonard is also a coincidence, I think you should have some guesses about this."
"A participant, a participant with excellent technology."
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows. There are too few participants in Prometheus who understand technology, and there are even fewer participants who have the ability to lead technology development, just like giant pandas I never thought that there would be such a participant appearing in front of my eyes, and he was still standing in the opposite camp.
A participant who understands the technology of other worlds joined Leonard, and appeared beside Leonard at the very beginning of this mission. Since then, he has been in charge of the research institutes under Leonard. Technology development, this point alone is ahead of Luo's progress in joining Mithril to develop the body.
What's more, Luo also hid a lot of hands in the development of new models in Mithril. The more important purpose was only to help Xiao Ran create a fighting body. There was hardly any way to improve Mithril's overall technical strength. The improvement of technology was also after Hayashi Quan Atsushi and others took control of the whole of Japan. From a point of view, it was even more behind.
The current situation is that Xiao Ran doesn't even know what technology the other party has mastered. After producing the technical support for the mass-produced third-generation AS, what kind of things have they produced in Leonard's research institute? , is still a technical participant, just from Luo's point of view, he can know that the opponent may not be so easy to deal with.
A participant is not scary, and neither is a mere technician. What is scary is a participant who has experienced three worlds, mastered different technologies of the three worlds, and has a combat ability that exceeds that of ordinary rookie participants. Participants who don't know their hole cards, since the other party has been staying in the research institution, it means that the other party may not have appeared in the previous chaos at all. Even if they want to collect more information about the other party, they will not get any useful information at all. For super systems, the unknown is the truly terrifying thing.
Xiao Ran's brows frowned slightly. Xiao Ran really didn't pay attention to the abnormal number of third-generation ASs. In his opinion, since some execution troops have already been equipped with third-generation ASs, even if the Soviet Union produced More third-generation ordinary AS is also a normal thing, but I just didn't expect that this is not normal.
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ran turned his head to look at Tessa and asked softly, "Why didn't you tell me about this before?"
"We didn't expect that the Soviet Union's third-generation AS technology was supported by amalgam, and so many things happened next, and we immediately forgot about it." Tessa looked at Xiao Ran's frown. , I also became vigilant in my heart, and asked: "Is it not just the mass production of the third-generation AS, is there something else?" (To be continued.)
