"Entering the predetermined orbit! Confirming the energy consumption of the light wings and initiating the abandonment program! "
"Commencing the abandonment countdown!"
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One! Abandonment program, initiating! "
In the low-Earth orbit hundreds of kilometers above the ground, under the operation of the abandoned program, the Minerva removed all the light wings connected to the left and right sides of the hull, and activated the auxiliary engine on the light wing assembly, guiding it to fall into the atmosphere until it was burned up by the atmosphere.
Seeing the two groups of light wings, driven by the auxiliary engines, quickly fall into the atmosphere and ignite with brilliant sparks, Talia could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Finally, we're home!"
From the moment PLANT sent a diplomatic mission, Talia had been waiting for this moment to come.
Especially after meeting with Negor, Talia could not help but imagine various scenarios in her mind.
The most terrifying scenario was that the Britannia Empire detained the Minerva under some pretext and blackmailed PLANT.
But, this was just a hypothesis.
The Britannia Empire's attitude was extremely straightforward!
After Negor and Lacus (who was Klia herself after swapping identities) submitted a request to bring the Minerva back to PLANT, Euphemia readily agreed and sent a team to assist the Minerva to return to space and return to PLANT as quickly as possible.
This included the Britannia Empire's newly developed rapid liftoff device — the auxiliary lifting light wings.
With the help of this new device, the Minerva successfully entered the predetermined orbit one-third of the time in the morning.
"Captain Talia. I just received news from Zaft headquarters that Mr. President is now visiting the moon and has asked the Minerva to return to PLANT to rest. "
Negor stood next to Mei Ling. After operating the headset for a while, he turned to look at Talia.
"Is that so? I understand! "
Talia raised her hand and signaled. Vice-Captain Arthur immediately understood and issued the relevant instructions to return.
Talia slowly took a breath, turned her head, and looked to the right, where Lacus was.
"Lady Lacus, is it okay for us to return to PLANT now?"
"No! Captain Talia. Now that we are passengers on this ship, the captain should decide the itinerary. "
Lacus smiled, indicating that she had no objections.
"Thank you for your understanding!"
Talia retracted her gaze and looked at Mei Ling.
"Meiling. He sent a communication request to the son of the pill slave. It's time for us to bid farewell to our comrades. "
That was right!
The Minerva wasn't the only one returning to space. There was also the Son of Dan Slave, which hadn't experienced any space combat after its modification.
Originally, Ray Mingkai did not intend to ride the Son of Dan Nu into space.
However, under Teresa's strong request, and after careful consideration, Ray Mingkai finally nodded and approved Teresa's plan, 'About the Son of Dan Slave Completing Actual Combat Training in Complicated Environments such as Microgravity in the Shortest Time'.
Thus, when the Minerva entered space with the aid of the auxiliary lift wings, the Son of Dan Slave also successfully entered space with the wings he was equipped with, and began the initial adaptability training for space combat.
"Oh oh oh oh oh! This was space! I'm really interested! "
Cruz looked at the completely sealed cup floating in front of him in surprise, and made a fuss from time to time.
“URUZ-6。 You better be serious! Now it's space adaptive training! "
Melissa Mao's voice came from the side.
However, when Cruz turned around, he immediately showed a gentlemanly smile.
Why?
That was because Melissa -Mao's hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, preventing her body from floating in the air. Moreover, her usually fierce face now had a trace of cuteness to it.
“URUZ-2。 Relax your muscles, pay attention to the combination of waist strength and leg movements. "
On the side, Sosuke Xiangliang wasn't surprised by the floating object in front of him, nor did he panic at the loss of gravity. Instead, he calmly reached out his hand and placed it on the wall, steadily floating in the air.
“URUZ-7。 You've received astronaut training before?! "
Melissa Mao saw that Sosuke Xiangliang's appearance was far better than them, who were weak enough to make people laugh to death, and was immediately shocked.
"No! I just looked up some information before I left. I didn't do any training. "
Sosuke Xiangliang calmly replied.
Then, he rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Then, with a slight push against the wall, his whole body flew towards Melissa Hair.
“URUZ-2。 You won't be able to complete space adaptive training in a short time. I have a way that should be able to help you. "
Sosuke Xiangliang reached out and pulled away Melissa Mao's hands that were tightly gripping the chair's handles, letting her completely float in the air.
"Wait wait wait!! U Sosuke!! You bastard, what are you doing!!!! "
For a moment, Melissa Mao's screams echoed throughout the cabin.
Compared to the jubilant cabin, the bridge was much calmer.
Because most people could work in chairs, and use this opportunity to slowly adapt to the space environment.
Of course, in the case of first contact with the space environment, the situation in the bridge wasn't much better than Sosuke Xiangliang's situation.
Fortunately, after the Son of Dan Nu entered space, he welcomed a new crew member with great strength.
"Yes. According to the current progress, it will take a week for all crew members to complete the space adaptive training. "
The silver stream of light fell, revealing Vervian's figure.
"A week? That's expected. Can you just speed it up a bit? "
Teresa pondered for a moment.
"This is already the best situation! After all, the crew on the Son of Dan Nu has never been exposed to space training. "
Vervian's gaze drifted slightly to the right.
There, was the old Richard Mardukas, who was still clenching his teeth and insisted on going to space.
The vice-captain slightly clenched his teeth, sitting on the chair to resist the microgravity, which made Teresa couldn't help but reveal a trace of a bitter smile.
"Looks like it will take some time!"
"This is the necessary time! No problem. After all, we still need to take a trip to the Throne of Control. Then, we will go to the moon. During this time, the adaptive training can be completed. But I'm afraid it will take more time to pilot the body. "
Ray Mingkai had already expected this.
Otherwise, Vermillion wouldn't have appeared here.
Her purpose was to let Vervian take over the control of the Son of Dan Nu before the crew members fully mastered the ability to work in the microgravity environment.
"In terms of pilot, Sharon seems to have some ideas."
After Vervian thought for a moment, she completed the core of thought with Sharon.
The stream of light flashed, and the holy goddess slowly landed on the bridge.
She slowly raised her right hand, and a familiar shaped fighter appeared in her palm.
“GHOST？”
Ray Mingkai recognized the fighter at a glance.
"Sharon, are you going to configure GOSHT on the Son of Dan Nu?"
"Yes. According to the current situation of the Son of Dan Nu, I'm afraid that for a while, only Kai can fight in full condition. "
Sharon's meaning was clear.
Since only Ray Mingkai could fight in full condition, then the Ghost would be used to fill the gap.
This would also avoid the trouble of sending new pilots, and also improve the efficiency of attack and logistics.
"This is a good idea! Then, how many Ghosts can the Throne of Command send over? "
"Two squadrons. Can the Son of Dan Nu fit all of them? "
Sharon looked at Teresa, and the latter showed a confident smile.
"No problem! How about another squadron to form a brigade? "
Sharon smiled.
"That won't do! Don't forget that the Ghost has a self-disciplined logistics mechanical team. Teresa, you don't want your logistics personnel who haven't adapted to the space environment to maintain a body they've never seen before, right? "
Teresa was taken aback, and then she facepalmed.
"You're right! I was careless! Then, it's settled. "
"Okay!"
Sharon nodded, then looked at Ray Mingkai and said softly.
"Kai, I'll wait for you at the Throne of Command!"
"Okay!"
Vervian, who had just finished the core of thought exchange with Sharon, looked in the direction of the Minerva.
"The ship sent a message requesting communication."
Ray Mingkai and Teresa looked at each other, and the latter spoke.
"Connect it!"
Then, Talia's figure appeared on the main screen.
"Son of Dan Nu, this is the Minerva. I'm Captain Talia, requesting communication."
"I'm Teresa. Captain Talia, what's the matter? "
Teresa nodded and said with a serious expression.
"No. It's just that it's almost time for us to say goodbye. Next, this ship will return home! "
Towards the end of her sentence, Talia couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
She must be thinking of her son!
Ray Mingkai thought about it and continued the conversation.
"Captain Talia. Thank you very much for your help during this time! The Empire will remember this kindness. "
"No, Your Highness. You're too kind! During our most difficult time, Your Highness and the Empire extended a helping hand to us. This is what we should do. Moreover, after that, the Empire also provided strong logistical support and supplies for the Minerva. This is already too much for us. "
Talia modestly spoke about the care the Minerva received during this time, and a trace of gratitude appeared on her face.
"In addition, during the time we followed Your Highness, the crew of the Minerva and I have realized the vastness and cruelty of this world. When we return, I'll compile a report of what we've seen and heard and submit it to the Supreme Council. I hope that the next time we meet, we'll be able to fight side by side against the enemies from another dimension! "
"I look forward to it too! Captain Talia. "
