(My recommendation votes have increased a lot for the past two days. I would like to thank those who support and like Infinite Mecha Warfare. Of course, this is mostly because of the book's collection and results. With your support, I believe that Infinite Mecha Warfare will be able to achieve better results. Thank you.)
Mu and Xiao Ran stood on both sides of the captain's room. Xiao Ran took some time to look at his two skills. Unknowingly, the proficiency of the two skills had increased by 10 and 7 points respectively. The proficiency of the D-grade General Mech Piloting skill had increased to 17 points, and the proficiency of the Space Combat skill had increased to 11 points. Xiao Ran was overjoyed.
Xiao Ran thought to himself, "Sure enough, the proficiency of fighting against humans increases much faster than the proficiency of fighting against computers. I didn't expect that piloting the ship would also increase my proficiency. Looks like I have to bring Mu along more often in the future. If my proficiency increases by 3 to 5 points every day, it won't be long before I hit 100 points. This feels great! "
For some reason, Mu, who had been deep in thought, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He raised his head and looked around, only to find that everyone was deep in thought. He strangely shook his head and put the matter aside.
Mary sat opposite Lax. Looking at Lax and the silver-haired female pilot, she also felt that Kira seemed to have brought back a huge problem. She could not help but ask, "Miss Lax, why are you here?"
Lax held the pink Hello with both hands and answered with a hint of sadness, "Because it's the first anniversary of the Bloody Valentine's Day incident. As a representative, I set off from PLANT ahead of the consolation group and went to Unius 7 to conduct a pre-investigation. But I didn't expect to meet the inspection team of the Earth Army here. We maintained our goodwill and let them board the ship for inspection. I don't know why, but I got into an argument with the people on the ship. I was also stuffed into the lifeboat … I don't know how the people on the ship are doing.
The silver-haired female pilot heard Lax's words and her eyes were filled with anger. She said in a suppressed voice, "Miss Lax, the inspection team's ship has sunk. I didn't find any survivors."
"Ah, how could this be?" Lax covered her mouth in shock. Her face showed a trace of sadness, "We represent PLANT. We're different from Zaft. This isn't a war. They're civilians. Why would the Earth Army …"
Mary looked at Lax. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She just shook her head gently. She really didn't know what to say. After coming out of Heliopolis, she had seen Artemis' greed. In fact, they were allies, but she had imprisoned them for the sake of Gundam. After arriving at the asteroid belt, Xiao Ran's words reminded her of the two hundred thousand innocent lives that had been lost. Now, he heard that the Earth Army had attacked civilian ships and slaughtered at least one ship of civilians.
Although Ma Liu knew that there were many factions within the Earth Army, she did not know when the Earth Army had become like this. They could even kill innocent people. Thinking back to what Xiao Ran had said about the willpower that the soldiers were so proud of, Ma Liu was confused for a moment.
As a man, Mu had experienced many battles. Compared to Mary, he was much calmer. However, when he heard Lax's words, he also showed a trace of anger, but then he shook his head helplessly.
Bakirulu was a soldier. It could be said that she was a real soldier. She was upright, brave, and had a firm will and the belief to fight for it. Although she also despised those scum who attacked civilians as Lax said, she wouldn't say anything. As a competent soldier, she only needed to take care of her own business.
But Xiao Ran was different. Although he was currently divided into the Earth Army, he had never had any good impression of the Earth Army. He only regarded himself as a member of the Archangel. Therefore, in the face of the few people who would walk together and fight against the Earth Army sooner or later, Xiao Ran sneered and said directly,
"What a good Earth Army, what a group of bandits. What kind of person led what kind of soldier. A soldier who dared to attack a civilian's airship was definitely not a good person. In the end, the entire Earth Army has been completely corrupted from top to bottom. For the sake of benefits and power, they can do anything dirty. I really don't know how many people in the Earth Army are real soldiers. I also don't know if you know who you are fighting for. "
Xiao Ran's words were quite straightforward, but it made the eyes of the people listening to him widen. Even Lax, who had always maintained a calm expression, couldn't help but open her mouth wide. She looked at Xiao Ran in disbelief, as if to say, "Brother, aren't you also in the Earth Army?"
Mu saw that Bakirulu's face was red with anger, and Mary was ashamed and didn't know what to say. In order to prevent Bakirulu and Xiao Ran from quarrelling in front of outsiders, he quickly coughed twice. "Cough, cough."
"I'm not talking about you. The Archangel may be an exception." Xiao Ran curled his lips, paused for a moment, and said, "Of course, there is also Brigadier General Halbarton of the Eighth Fleet. He is also a rare person in the Earth Army who is sober. However, he is weak and his position is low. He may not have the right to speak in the Earth Army's upper management and can't influence the decisions of the upper management."
"First Lieutenant Xiao Ran!" Bakirulu finally couldn't help but stand up and yell at Xiao Ran, "Enough, please don't say such things in front of the enemy!"
"Enemy? Who is the enemy here? " Xiao Ran asked. Xiao Ran, who had said a lot of things, unknowingly became more agitated. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he controlled himself and took a deep breath. His voice was much lower, "Phew, Second Lieutenant Bakirulu, there are no enemies here. At least, Lax and this pilot lady are not enemies to us at the moment. At the critical moment, they will be our best friends and talismans. "
After that, Xiao Ran turned to Lax, "Right, Miss Lax Klein?"
"Ah, you know me?" Lax looked at Xiao Ran with her eyes wide open.
"Although I don't know how many people in PLANT are called Lax, there is only one Lax who can make a Zaft pilot call Miss." Xiao Ran waved his hand slightly and looked at Lax with a smile.
"Ah, so that's how it is." Lax stuck out her tongue and laughed, "That's right, my father is Siegel Klein. But Mr. Xiao Ran is really knowledgeable. "
"Haha, not at all." Xiao Ran smiled. Perhaps it was because he had been in disguise for too long, but he didn't feel the slightest bit unnatural in the face of praise.
The corner of Mu's mouth twitched. "If I remember correctly, the current president of PLANT … is called Siegel Klein. It seems that Kira has brought back something amazing."
"Oh my god." Mary and Bakirulu looked at Lax's innocent face and lowered their heads speechlessly, "This is really troublesome."
"Hehe." Lax didn't know if it was because she saw the funny looks on their faces, but she laughed at the female pilot and Xiao Ran beside her.
Not long after, Mary stood up and looked at Lax and the silver-haired female pilot, "Miss Lax, due to the special situation of our ship and the fact that we are still in danger, although you are a civilian, due to your special identity, we will protect and control you until the ship is out of danger. And this pilot …"
"My name is Molia, Molia Haru."
Mary nodded slightly and continued, "Molia Haru is a member of the hostile armed forces of our ship, so you will be under special control. However, since you are here to investigate the situation and have no intention of being an enemy of our ship, although you will not be imprisoned, your freedom will still be restricted."
Molia, the silver-haired pilot, said, "I have to protect Miss Lax."
"That won't do. It's too dangerous for the two of you to stay together." Mu shrugged and said, "But you can rest assured that Miss Lax will not be treated unfairly."
Lax held Molia's hand, "Molia, don't worry about me. I believe that everyone on this ship is a good person."
"Just like that." Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Xiao Ran also smiled and said, "Okay, since there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
"No, I still have something to ask you." Mary shook her head at Xiao Ran, then looked at Mu and Bakirulu and said, "Captain Mu, Second Lieutenant Bakirulu, I'll leave them to you."
Bakirulu nodded, stood up, and was about to leave when the door to the captain's room opened and saw several heads huddled together. She was furious and yelled, "Do you have nothing better to do?! Hurry up and get to work! "
"Yes, sir!" Several voices answered in a mess. Xiao Ran also heard Kazuyi and Sei's voices from inside the room. He could not help but shake his head and smile. As he turned his head, he saw Lax smiling sweetly at the door. He followed her gaze and saw Kira standing outside the door, not knowing whether to leave or stop. In the end, he gave Lax an ugly smile and left in a hurry.
After Mu and Bakirulu left with Lax and Molia, Xiao Ran sat down in front of Mary and asked, "What's the matter?"
Mary looked deeply at Xiao Ran and said, "I know you won't say anything meaningless. What did you mean by who you're fighting for? I feel that every word you said has a meaning. You don't sound like an ordinary person at all."
Mary's words had two meanings. What else do you know? Who are you?
Xiao Ran, who had always been good at Chinese, naturally heard the doubts in Mary's words. However, he could not tell Mary the real reason. He just smiled faintly and said, "What do you mean by who you're fighting for? Do you even need to say it? Are you fighting for the humans on Earth, or for the interests of the Earth Army's high officials? Or are you fighting for the Blue Persian chrysanthemum? I don't think there are many people on Earth who want to go to war, except for those with ulterior motives. Don't you think everything you're doing is in line with the intentions of those with ulterior motives? "
"Some of my words do have a deeper meaning, but you won't understand even if I tell you. Besides, I only have suspicions. I don't have conclusive evidence, so there's no point in saying too much. Originally, as an ordinary person, I don't need to think about things that have nothing to do with me. But now, I have to think about it. Maybe one day, when my suspicions become true, you'll understand what I mean. "
As Xiao Ran spoke, he reminded himself in his heart that sometimes, he could say what he was supposed to say, but never say what he wasn't supposed to say. Otherwise, it would be terrible if he accidentally said something he wasn't supposed to say in anger.
