Mary sighed, and then said to Xiao Ran, "Mr. Xiao, your wisdom has already shown your role, and for Second Lieutenant Kira, your existence is also indispensable. It's hard to believe that Kira, who was only in his second official battle, could actually face four Gundams without falling into a disadvantageous position under the suppression of only Archangel and Captain Mu. Not only that, but he also displayed amazing combat ability and repelled the dueling Gundams. All of this was only because Mr. Xiao was seriously injured and unconscious. "
Xiao Ran asked in surprise, "Huh? The second battle, you mean the encounter from Heliopolis to Artemis? Kira repelled the Duel Gundam? What about the Holy Shield? "
"That's right." Mary nodded affirmatively and said, "Although the Holy Shield's actions are a bit strange, Mr. Xiao, you can't deny the influence you have on Second Lieutenant Kira."
"Incredible." Xiao Ran shook his head in shock and thought, "The impact of an early SEED explosion is actually so great? In the original plot, it was entirely because of Mu's sneak attack and the lack of energy for the Holy Shield and other mecha that the Archangel was able to escape. Aslan also helped Kira at the critical moment, but now Kira can actually erupt with such combat power. The speed of his growth is too terrifying. "
Xiao Ran took a deep breath and calmed himself down a little. "Miss Ramyes, you have told me so much. It would be too much if I don't agree to your request, but I also hope that you can agree to a small condition of mine."
Mary nodded and said, "Please say."
Xiao Ran said slowly, "There is no problem with joining the Archangel, but I will only admit that I am a member of the Archangel and will not admit that I am a member of the Earth Alliance Army. I don't have any good impression of the Earth Alliance Army, and I even hate it more than Zaft. To be honest, in the entire Earth Army, I only have a good impression of the Archangel and its members. "
Mary was stunned for a moment before nodding. "That's not a problem. The Archangel is a separate organization, and we can't contact the main force in the current situation. Your identity will be the same as Second Lieutenant Kira and the others. You will be a recruit under the special regulations of the Archangel."
"Thank you very much." Xiao Ran smiled. At this time, the Archangel had not betrayed the Earth Army, so he did not know if it would be considered an independent force. The reason why Xiao Ran said what he said before was to try and see if becoming an official member of the Archangel could be considered as completing the mission.
"Yes." Mary smiled at Xiao Ran and said, "Since you have joined the Archangel, it is not appropriate to call you Mr. Xiao Ran. With your ability, I can only let you serve as a sergeant now. For the time being, you will be in charge of the bridge's fire control and staff officer. What do you think?"
"No problem, Captain." Xiao Ran smiled slightly.
"Ding, Main Mission 2: Choose to join a force in this world within ten days and learn mecha operation skills within a month and reach D level."
"The camp you have chosen is: Earth Alliance Army Archangel Member, Class Sergeant. Mecha Operation Skills: D level. Mission can be completed. Do you want to complete the mission? Yes/No. "
The sudden prompt made Xiao Ran smile in his heart, but at this time, he couldn't carefully read the text in the wristwatch in front of Mary, so he put it aside for the time being. However, Xiao Ran still firmly remembered the words "Earth Alliance Army Archangel" in the prompt.
After that, Mary told Xiao Ran about the recent arrangements of the Archangel and left after letting him rest and recuperate. However, before leaving, she also took a deep look at Xiao Ran. There seemed to be a different look in her eyes, but Xiao Ran, whose attention was completely focused on other places, did not notice Mary's situation at all. After sending Mary out of the room with a smile, he leaned on the bed.
He opened the mission prompt in the wristwatch and read the text again and again.
"Earth Alliance Army Archangel Member, Class Sergeant, free to choose whether to complete the mission or not." Xiao Ran looked back and forth a few times, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile. "Although the words" Earth Alliance Army "in front of the Archangel makes me a little unhappy, I have long thought about it. The current Archangel can't be considered an independent force at all. As long as I can become a member of the Archangel, it is not impossible to become a member of the Archangel when the time comes to become a member of the Aube's Archangel."
"Class Sergeant, Class Mecha Operation Skill level, plus the freedom to choose whether to complete the mission or not, it seems that the second main mission also has a hidden rating reward." Xiao Ran rubbed his chin and thought to himself, "I just don't know what rating I will get after I complete the mission with my current Class D piloting skills and Class Sergeant. Ten days to join the camp, one month to reach Class D piloting skills, a total of 40 days. Excluding the two days when I was unconscious, it seems that I have to find a way to improve myself in these 38 days, whether it's piloting skills or my current Class. "
After deciding to find a way to improve himself within the mission deadline, Xiao Ran quickly thought of an excellent shortcut – that was to announce that he could pilot an MS and that he could also fight.
The reason why Kira was able to become a Second Lieutenant was not only because he was currently the only person on the Archangel who could pilot a Gundam, but also because he was given such treatment. It was because in the entire Earth Alliance Army, the current MS pilots could be said to be as precious as pandas. As special talents, it could be said that all of them had high welfare and high class treatment, just like Kira Yamato, who became a Second Lieutenant in the Earth Alliance Army during the second battle.
Xiao Ran, who currently had the General Mecha Operation Skill, although only the lowest Class D, as long as he could operate an MS in battle, then he would be a Second Lieutenant. Of course, after the Earth Alliance Army mass-produced the MS, except for the Earth Alliance Army's enhancers, only the truly outstanding people could have such treatment.
"So, if the hidden rating of the main mission 2 is related to piloting skills and Class, then it should be a hidden benefit for the participants who join the Earth Alliance Army. But if the timing of completing the mission is not right, then this hidden benefit is equivalent to not having it. "
Of course, these things were inferred by Xiao Ran based on the rating that appeared after completing the main mission 1, the Sergeant Class that appeared in the mission prompt, and the independent completion of the mission in conjunction with the plot association. According to the inference of the plot, Xiao Ran had reason to believe that since joining the Earth Alliance Army could get hidden evaluation benefits, then naturally, the difficulty of the final main mission 3 would also rise in a straight line.
It was very likely that relying on the weak military power, there were only a few or a dozen MS, or more than half of the participants chose the Earth Alliance Army, resulting in the corresponding increase in the number of MS to fight against other forces. After Xiao Ran thought about this situation, he could almost conclude the location of the main mission 3.
Xiao Ran pondered, "If there is no accident, the main mission 3 should be at the time when Zaft attacked Alaska. In the entire Gundam SEED main storyline, before the Earth Alliance Army mass-produced MS and narrowed the gap with Zaft, only that battle would involve all aspects, and increase the difficulty of the Earth Alliance Army participants who got the hidden benefits. In this way, it makes sense that the Earth Alliance Army participants can get the hidden benefits."
After understanding this, Xiao Ran felt much more relaxed as if he had lost a heavy burden. Although he was not completely sure that the main mission 3 was what he thought, it was definitely not too far off.
Xiao Ran, who had no worries, calmly recuperated for a few days. Every day, he chatted with Kira and the others, or went to the bridge to learn fire control and so on. The injuries on his body slowly recovered. At least from the outside, it was impossible to tell that Xiao Ran had suffered serious injuries not long ago.
As time passed, the time for Yunus 7 was getting closer and closer. Xiao Ran's heart was also full of expectations. He was looking forward to the first encounter between Kira and Lax, and he was also looking forward to the encounter between himself and Lax. Xiao Ran was quite interested in this half-hearted singer.
In addition to doing these things, Xiao Ran was more immersed in Gnacou. In Gnacou, there was training equipment that belonged to the original Gundam pilots to train the operation of Gundam. But after those people died and the Gundam was robbed, no one cared about it. It was not until Xiao Ran appeared that the sealed box saw the light again.
At first, only Xiao Ran familiarized himself with his D-class general mech piloting skills in the corner alone. After more than ten virtual battles, Xiao Ran also had a basic understanding of his current level. It was equivalent to the level of the ordinary Zaft Green Coat in the virtual reality, and this level in Xiao Ran's view was just the level of a common soldier.
After many times of captain training, Xiao Ran also suddenly found that there were new things after his two skills.
D-class general mech piloting skills: Can operate D-class mech normally, proficiency 7/100. (Can be upgraded)
Space combat proficiency: LV1, D-class skill. Can be slightly proficient in space combat, preliminary sense of space. Proficiency 4/100. (Can be upgraded)
The appearance of the two proficiency points gave Xiao Ran quite a pleasant surprise. Anyone who had played games before would know that the increase in proficiency points would either increase the power of a certain skill or level it up after the proficiency points were maxed out. In short, it meant that the skill would become stronger. And a mere 100 points of proficiency was not a problem in Xiao Ran's view at all. In just three to five days, his proficiency had increased by 7 and 4 points, and this was under the condition of operating the virtual training machine. What if it was changed to real training?
"Then I'm afraid the proficiency will increase even faster. I'm afraid there will be an explosive growth during battle, right?" This thought popped up in Xiao Ran's mind, and then he spent more time on the virtual training machine.
During the battle, Xiao Ran tried out different terrains such as land, air, space, and so on. After a few days, he found that he was able to perform better in space battles than in other terrains by about a third. This data was automatically calculated by the computer after every battle.
For example, hit rate, dodge rate, effective operation, and other data. Xiao Ran also tried to use the Assault Gundam to attack in the virtual training machine, but what made Xiao Ran helpless was that only in space terrain could he perform up to 80% of the theoretical performance of the Assault Gundam. In other terrains, he could only perform up to 65% of the theoretical performance of the Assault Gundam.
The first reason was naturally because Xiao Ran's physical data was still a little low, and the second reason was that his D-class piloting skills could no longer fully control the Assault Gundam, which was obviously a C-class body.
As for Kira, Xiao Ran knew from the data collected by the maintenance team that he could perform up to 100% of the theoretical performance of the Assault Gundam regardless of equipment. At the highest, he could perform up to 120%, which was almost all the real performance of the Assault Gundam.
Therefore, the people in the maintenance team were quite helpless about this. After returning from the previous few battles, they would inspect and maintain the Assault Gundam in all aspects, and even make some preliminary enhancements and modifications to some parts of the Assault Gundam. Regarding this matter, Sergeant Madoc had already complained to Mary many times, but it was just a passing remark.
One day, just as Xiao Ran was controlling Zeon in the virtual training machine to suppress the enemy with his weapon, he used high-speed maneuvers to close in on the enemy and swung his weapon. Accompanied by a burst of sparks on the monitor, there was a loud clap behind him.
