Machine War: Infinite Frontier

Chapter 52 Fishing

From the dry, hot and endless desert to the blue sky and blue sea, the mood of everyone on the Archangel also relaxed with the change of environment.

It seems that the sea is full of inexplicable magic, which makes people who come here want to let themselves go.

In the bridge, Xiao Yun leaned against the window with his hands folded and looked at the sea outside through the observation window, looking at the undulating sea surface and the dolphins jumping out. Compared with normal situations, Xiao Yun seemed to be quieter at this time. He showed a thoughtful look.

"Why, don't you like the sea?"

Mu came to Xiao Yun and suddenly laughed at the silent Xiao Yun.

Slowly turning back, Xiao Yun shook his head at Mu: "No, I was just thinking about what to do if I meet the enemy. My machine has no ability to fly or move on the sea. If it falls into the water, it will be a pure target. I suddenly regret agreeing to act with you."

Mu laughed and patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the sea is not ZAFT's sphere of influence. We are free to fly in the sea. It's not easy to find us in the ocean."

Xiao Yun: "Haha."

Now that they have entered the Red Sea smoothly, Malu in the captain's seat also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I allow everyone to take turns to stay on the deck for a while, and notify everyone in the ship."

Malu's order came out, and there was a happy cheer in the bridge: "Great."

Mu said to Xiao Yun: "Don't you want to relax?"

"No, I'll go to the hangar to take a look."

Xiao Yun waved his hand, stood up, left the bridge and went to the hangar.

But half an hour later, Xiao Yun came to the bottom of the Archangel with a bucket and a long pole, and a rolled-up mat under his armpit, near the landing elevator used when landing. Following VT's prompt, he climbed down another staircase.

"Xiao Yun, we're here. The switch is in front of you on the left."

Xiao Yun looked in the direction of VT's prompt, first took out two cans of beer from the bucket and put them aside, spread out the mat and laid out everything, then came to the switch of VT, opened the protective box and slapped the switch.

As the switch was pressed, the heavy iron door suddenly opened, and the fresh sea breeze came towards him along the opened emergency exit, and the sound of waves rang in his ears.

Blown by the sea breeze, Xiao Yun also showed a comfortable expression, stretched his head out and looked down. This position was only two or three meters away from the sea surface, which made him nod with satisfaction and sit on the mat.

He pulled out the long pole he brought, pulled out the fishing line, hooked the bait, opened the beer, listened to the music played by VT, and after the fishing rod was fixed on the rack, Xiao Yun leaned on the blanket with his legs crossed.

"Comfortable."

In the bridge, the system suddenly reminded Malu, who was talking to Chisaka, to look at a small screen next to her hand, and a prompt appeared on the screen.

After taking a look, Malu was stunned for a moment, and then asked the ship control: "What's going on? Why is the emergency door No. 3 in Area H open?"

But less than five seconds later, Malu covered his head with a headache, and really didn't want to look at the picture displayed on the big screen in front of the bridge.

In the monitor screen, Xiao Yun was lying on the mat with his head in his arms, shaking his legs constantly. A long fishing rod was stuck on the rack that he didn't know where he got from, beer was placed beside him, and music was playing, looking so cool.

Baki Lulu felt like she was about to stop breathing. She pressed the hat on her head and lowered her head. She said dryly: "Captain, should we ask someone to stop him?"

"Forget it..." Malu sighed helplessly and said speechlessly: "Let him fish. If he catches a fish, it will be a good snack for everyone. Where did this guy get the fishing rod from?"

Saiyi, who was in the process of ship control and had not gone out at all, looked at the screen and suddenly saw the screen where the fishing line was stretched straight and Xiao Yun sat up quickly. He was stunned and said quickly: "It seems to be caught."

Chisaka also looked up at the screen and saw Xiao Yun being dragged so hard that he almost lost his balance. His face tightened: "No, it's a big one!"

As soon as the voice fell, Chisaka hurriedly ran out of the bridge. He didn't know Xiao Yun, but from his understanding, Xiao Yun might be the kind of bastard who would never let go. If he really caught a big one, this guy might be pulled off the ship because he didn't want to let go.

Every year, Chisaka, who lives in the Orb Island, sees many people falling into the sea because of fishing. If this situation happened on an ordinary ship, it would be fine. But now on the Archangel, if he was really dragged down, Xiao Yun might be swallowed by the waves and thrown far away in the blink of an eye.

As Chisaka ran away, Malu looked at Xiao Yun, who was already lying on the ground with his feet against the wall, holding the fishing rod tightly with both hands on the screen, and couldn't help but stand up from the chair and quickly ordered: "Quickly ask who is in the hangar, and ask someone to help quickly."

"Okay, Captain!"

Xiao Yun didn't know what happened in the bridge, didn't know that Chisaka was running towards him, and didn't know that Malu asked more people to come to prevent him from falling into the sea.

At this time, Xiao Yun's face was full of excitement. When he found that the fishing line was stretched straight and quickly released, he found that he seemed to have caught a big fish. When he grabbed the fishing rod, he found that the big fish he caught might be bigger than he thought at the beginning. He started to show his excellent fishing skills while holding the fishing rod.

He used his legs to support the wall to gain leverage and prevent himself from being dragged into the water. He kept pulling and releasing the fish slowly. Thanks to the world's superb material technology level, the material of the fishing line is also quite solid. Not to mention for fishing, the thin silk thread is completely enough to hang people.

People who sail know that there are many fish in the Red Sea. Once the fish from the Indian Ocean enter the Red Sea, it is like entering a bottle. There is only entry but no exit. In addition, the water depth is good, and the fish here are getting more and more and bigger.

What Xiao Yun caught now was a huge fish. Xiao Yun and the fish were fighting back and forth. A few minutes later, Mu appeared beside Xiao Yun. He looked at Xiao Yun in extreme silence, and stretched his head to look outside. He looked along the fishing line and squinted his eyes to see the hooked fish.

"Wow, it's so big."

Mu couldn't help showing a surprised expression. He fumbled around and took out a pistol. He held the door and aimed at the big fish that occasionally surfaced.

After a few shots, Xiao Yun suddenly felt the strength in his hand loosen up, and he quickly started to reel in the line and caught the fish in a short while.

Even the kitchen was alarmed by Xiao Yun's fishing. It was only when the kitchen staff brought a big hook that the fish was successfully dragged onto the boat. It was a big fish about 1.5 meters long. When it was dragged up, it looked bloody and scary.

When the fish came up, Xiao Yun couldn't stop smiling. He quickly asked Mu to find something to take a picture of him. Soon, the news that Xiao Yun opened the emergency exit to fish spread throughout the ship.

It also reached the ears of Kira and Kagali who were sitting on the deck to rest.

Kagali was also speechless when she heard it. She covered her face and felt a little embarrassed to see people. After all, he was her bodyguard: "This guy... Why does he have so many things to do in a day? It seems that he can't rest at all."

Kira smiled helplessly: "Mr. Xiao is very active. I feel that life has become more interesting after knowing him."

On the other side, Xiao Yun kept watching the fish and sent it into the kitchen. He patted the chef's shoulder: "Chopped pepper fish head, no? Spicy fish should be able to do it!"

Mu pulled Xiao Yun away speechlessly, and after Xiao Yun left, the chef took a look at the African peppers purchased in North Africa in the warehouse and scratched his hair in embarrassment.

When Mu dragged Xiao Yun out and went to the hangar together, Mu looked at Xiao Yun helplessly and said, "You were not just thinking about how to fish in the bridge just now, were you?"

Xiao Yun paused for a moment, showing an expression that you really would think about it and laughed: "Haha, no, how is it possible."

Seeing Xiao Yun denying it, Mu didn't believe it at all: "It's obviously premeditated. When did you bring the mat, bucket, and fishing rod?"

Xiao Yun said sincerely: "You think too much, really, you think too much."

Mu shook his head and was about to say something when the alarm sounded in the ship, and then the voice of the CIC also rang throughout the ship: "All personnel are in the second combat readiness state, all personnel are in the second combat readiness state, everyone is ready for battle immediately, everyone is ready for battle immediately."

"What!?" Mu's face froze, and he said in disbelief: "Didn't you say there is no ZAFT here! Isn't the frequency of battle too frequent now!"

"Let's go." Xiao Yun raised his legs and ran, running directly towards the hangar.

Mu followed behind and started running. The two of them rushed towards the hangar quickly, one in front and one behind.
