The private plane flew all the way from Union to the Federation of Human Revolutionary Organizations. It landed at an airport that Xiao Ran did not know about without any inspection. Even though Xiao Ran and Sherry Dew, who did not go through the normal procedures, were on the plane, no inspection was carried out.
After getting off the plane, Xiao Ran, who thought that they had arrived at their destination, found that this was only the midpoint of their journey. Soon, they switched to a small shuttle driven by the Red Dragon. The shuttle quickly rose into the air and flew towards an unknown area.
Looking down from the sky, apart from white clouds, Xiao Ran could only see endless green on the ground. After looking at it for a while, Xiao Ran did not lose interest. It took more than three hours to get on the plane from Union and switch to a small shuttle after landing.
The plane hovered directly in the air. In fact, under Red Dragon's excellent piloting skills, the feeling of hovering could not be felt by ordinary people at all. However, Xiao Ran was obviously not an ordinary person. The moment the plane stopped, he was keenly aware of it and looked out of the cabin window. However, other than a touch of rugged green, he could not see anything at all with the naked eye.
As the plane slowly descended towards the rugged mountain, just as the plane was about to hit the trees in the forest, the trees suddenly flashed and turned into a tarmac. After the plane stopped on the tarmac, it felt like the tarmac was slowly descending like a lift. Xiao Ran found that the rugged place he was in was actually an entrance hidden by the combination of trees, forest and optical camouflage.
Xiao Ran walked down from the plane and looked up. The place where the plane landed had closed up and turned into a closed ceiling. It would only open again when necessary. Following Wang Liumei's departing figure, he saw several men and women in Celestial uniforms standing not far away and greeting Wang Liumei. They were even looking at him and Sherry Dew with curious eyes.
Among these people, Xiao Ran was surprised to find that they were all 'acquaintances'. Looking at the familiar figures, Xiao Ran thought to himself, "Tactical Forecaster 'Emperor', Cyborg Innovator, Tiyelia Eddy, whose gender is unknown. And the Ptolemy maintenance man and his wife. Why are they here? "
In this world, Xiao Ran was familiar with many characters through anime and manga. However, other than the names of King, Gundam's four pilots, Union's Graham, Wang Liumei, and Red Dragon, he really couldn't remember the other people's names. For example, the maintenance man and the others on the Ptolemy.
Holding Sherry Dew's hand, he walked over and stopped beside Wang Liumei. Wang Liumei smiled politely at Xiao Ran and introduced the four people to Xiao Ran.
The first person to be introduced was Empress, who was wearing a light purple Celestial uniform. She had a voluptuous figure and long brown hair. "This is our tactical forecaster, Empress Lee Noriega. You can call her Miss Empress. She is also the commander of the first echelon of the Celestials. If you join the first echelon, you will listen to her orders. "
"Hello, Miss Emperor." Xiao Ran nodded with a smile. Sherry Dew also smiled in a friendly manner.
Miss Emperor extended her hand to Xiao Ran. The two shook hands gently and immediately separated. "Hello, Xiao Ran. I'm glad you can join the Celestials."
After Miss Emperor finished, Wang Liumei introduced the purple-haired young man. "This is Tiyelia Eddy, the MS pilot of the Celestials' first echelon."
"Hello." Xiao Ran smiled at Tiyelia in a friendly manner. Tiyelia nodded back with an indifferent expression on his face. "Welcome to the team. But if you want to become a Celestial pilot, you have to go through more tests. "
"Of course. That's why I'm here." Xiao Ran knew what kind of person Tiyelia was, so he just smiled at Tiyelia's cold attitude. He looked at the two people behind him.
"These two are the Vanthi couple, Ian Vanthi and Linda Vanthi. They're in charge of the Celestials' technology and research. They're very skilled technicians."
Sherry Dew looked at Linda and then at Ian. A smile appeared on her face, but Ian and Linda were not ignorant people. After seeing Sherry Dew's expression, Ian scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. "Linda is much younger than me, but we're husband and wife. We even have a child. I didn't expect the famous Milky Way Songstress to be one of us. Can you give me a signed photo of you later? Our daughter really likes your songs."
"Of course. You can have as many as you want." Sherry Dew covered her mouth and smiled. Xiao Ran also shook his head with a smile. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong and turned to Sherry Dew. "Milky Way Songstress?"
Sherry Dew raised her chin. "That's right. My first album was called Milky Way Songstress. What about it?"
"Nothing." Xiao Ran shook his head and extended his right hand to Ian. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Ian."
Ian smiled. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Arikos. I heard from VEDA that you seem to have some very special MS technology. I wonder if I can have the honor of seeing it today."
Xiao Ran smiled. "I believe you won't be disappointed."
After introducing Xiao Ran and Shirley, the Empress led them into the interior of the base. Inside, Xiao Ran saw many staff members in Celestial uniforms busying themselves with something. When they saw Xiao Ran and Shirley, most of them had looks of confusion and shock on their faces. Some of them even had fanatical expressions on their faces.
Some even shouted, "It's Miss Sherry Dew! Oh my god, I actually saw Miss Sherry Dew!"
Sherry Dew kept waving and nodding at these people. However, even though these people were behaving like this outside of work, the Queen, who was obviously a high-ranking person, did not reprimand them. Instead, she explained to everyone with a smile, "Miss Sherry Dew will be a member of the Celestials in the future. She will receive some training in this base for a period of time. You will have plenty of opportunities to interact with her in the future. We will even select some suitable people to be Miss Sherry Dew's bodyguards and assistants. If you are interested, please sign up."
"That's great!"
"I want to sign up!"
Xiao Ran looked at such a relaxed and harmonious working environment and couldn't help but nod with a smile on his face. Tiyelia, who had been observing Xiao Ran, also recorded all of this.
After Sherry Dew signed autographs for all these staff members and took photos with them many times, they were finally satisfied and did not disturb Miss Sherry Dew anymore. Seeing that it was about time, the Queen led them out of this huge office space and went to another place.
When the Queen led them into a room of about 100 square meters, Xiao Ran saw several machines placed in the room. At first glance, Xiao Ran recognized them as virtual training equipment that appeared in the Gundam SEED world. Of course, they were not the simplified version of the Archangel, but a fully functional version that completely simulated the entire cabin.
Seeing this, Xiao Ran didn't know what kind of expression he should show. In the end, he just raised his eyebrows and looked at the Queen.
The Queen didn't say anything, but Ian explained, "This is a training equipment developed by the Celestials. After all, we can't often fly the MS for actual combat tests, so we developed this thing as a replacement. Of course, there will be some small differences between the actual combat tests, but these small differences are completely negligible. "
"So my first test is the 'actual combat test'?" Xiao Ran smiled slightly.
Ian shook his head. "Not necessarily. We also need to know to what extent you can use the MS developed by the Celestials. The performance of the MS developed by the Celestials is on a completely different level compared to the standard airframe. There is also a huge difference in terms of weapons and energy sources. If you can't satisfy us this time, there won't be much time for you to familiarize yourself with the airframe when the operation is about to begin. So, you will lose the qualification to enter the first echelon."
Xiao Ran nodded and walked to one of the training equipment. "Then, let's begin."
Ian walked to the control panel and looked at Xiao Ran. "What kind of weapons are you good at?"
"Other than sniper weapons, I've dabbled in most of them. Our standards are about the same. If you want to talk about what I'm best at …" Xiao Ran smiled and said, "If there's a multi-attack weapon, can I choose? If not, I'll be equipped with dual weapons, melee weapons, and missile weapons. As long as your airframe can lock on multiple targets, even if there's no automatic locking system, I can still lock on manually. "
Tiyelia gently shook his head after hearing Xiao Ran's words. The Queen, Wang Liumei, Linda, and the Red Dragon, who had always been inconspicuous, were all surprised and curious.
"Multi-lock? There are airframes with this system. Are you sure you want to be equipped with those weapons? "Ian scratched his head and said," So, the more weapons, the better? "
"Of course." Xiao Ran smiled faintly and sat in the training cabin door opened by Ian. Looking at the cockpit that was completely different from the Lightning Sacred Shield, the Dark Heretic, and the Black Eagle, Xiao Ran stretched out his hands and gently touched it.
Ian nodded. "I understand."
The moment the cabin door closed, a dim light lit up in the dark training cabin. The screens on both sides and in front of him instantly lit up, and the small panel in front of his legs also lit up. The symbol of the Celestials appeared, and a series of data quickly appeared.
