Xiao Ran left the bridge as if nothing had happened. The moment the elevator door closed, Xiao Ran clenched his fist and waved it. "YES! Although the landing spot of the Archangel may not be the same as the landing spot in the original plot, such a big movement will definitely attract the attention of Zaft and Desert Dawn. This way, it won't be much different from the original plot. "
Xiao Ran, who was feeling very fortunate, did not feel dizzy at this time. His footsteps were also much lighter. This was also thanks to the gravity simulation system in the Archangel. If it were not for this system, not only Xiao Ran, but everyone on the Archangel would be walking unsteadily.
When Xiao Ran arrived at Gnacou and met up with the crew, the Archangel also slowly landed on the ground with a slight vibration. In fact, with Xiao Ran's level, it was really hard for him to imagine how a spaceship as big as the Archangel could float in the air without any obvious hovering device.
After the Archangel came to a stop, Xiao Ran and a few people from Gnacou climbed up to the top of the Archangel. Looking at the Assault Gundam whose shield had been completely destroyed, the crew gasped. Not only the shield, but the body of the Assault Gundam also more or less showed signs of melting due to the high temperature. The most obvious signs were the two sharp horns on the Gundam's head. Almost half of them had melted, and it was now night and in the middle of the desert. In fact, they should have felt cold, but now they could only feel waves of hot air rushing at them.
"It'll be troublesome to fix it now." Madoc, who had been promoted to staff sergeant, had no choice but to do his standard action. He stretched out his hand and scratched his hair. After complaining for a while, he immediately asked someone to open the cockpit door of the Assault Gundam. As Xiao Ran said, Kira had indeed fainted. If his whole body was not directly restrained by the seat belt, he would have collapsed into a ball.
After the crew carefully brought Kira down, they hurriedly sent him to the warship's medical room. There were new military doctors transferred from the Eighth Fleet because of the shortage of personnel on the Archangel. It was not only the military doctors. At this time, after Archangel and the Eighth Fleet met, not only did they receive supplies, but they also received a great deal of manpower. For the first time, the crew of Archangel, which had always been the lowest, exceeded a hundred.
After watching Kira leave, Xiao Ran also sat in the Assault Gundam. As soon as he sat in, he almost fainted from the heat. He hurriedly turned on the air displacement device in the cockpit and felt a little better. But until he drove the Assault Gundam back to Gnacou, the cockpit door never closed.
After putting the Gundam away, Xiao Ran also went to find Sergeant Madoc. "This place is occupied by the enemy. There's no reason for Zaft's people not to see something as big as the Archangel. Hurry up and maintain and repair the Assault Gundam. The enemy may come at any time."
"I understand that." Sergeant Madoc looked at the damaged Assault Gundam and said, "Although it looks quite serious, the internal structure is not damaged at all. It will be repaired very quickly, but your body …"
Xiao Ran nodded. "I know. This Zeon has not been specially set up and can't fight on the ground. As for the OS, no one except Kira understands. And because of the first attack, the lower limbs have structural damage. It's fine in the universe, but on the ground, I'm afraid it won't be able to last long. At that time, not only will it not be able to be a combat force, it will also become a burden."
"It's good that you understand." Madoc picked up the tablet beside him and pulled up the information on the Zeon. As he pointed at the things on the tablet, he said to Xiao Ran, "It's not just that. Apart from the lower limbs, the Zeon has undergone a major transformation, especially the backpack, which completely exceeds the maximum weight the Zeon can withstand on Earth. You didn't allow the skeleton to be reinforced before, but now, once there's intense activity, either the backpack will disintegrate and you will lose your energy source and be unable to fight, or the skeleton will break and become a target. In short, your Zeon is now useless."
Xiao Ran smiled. "It's okay. I can't use the Zeon on Earth. I've already made preparations. When I have time, I'll take the original parts of the Assault Gundam apart. If Kira can capture a Zeon, I think it shouldn't be a problem to capture a Dean on Earth. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble you to modify the body. I think this journey in the future might be more dangerous than the one in the universe."
"Now that you mention it, I do think it's very troublesome." Madoc sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Right now, we have to hurry up and fix the Assault Gundam. We still have to make adjustments to the Air Overlord, but speaking of the Air Overlord, I think you can pilot it into battle."
"The Air Overlord is a fighter after all. It's completely different from operating an MS. I haven't learned how to pilot that thing, so let's just forget about it." Xiao Ran quickly waved his hand and rejected Madoc's suggestion.
After leaving Gnacou, Xiao Ran went directly to the captain's room where Mary was. When Xiao Ran walked in, he saw three people who were already waiting inside.
Before Xiao Ran could sit down, Bakirulu asked very directly, "Major Xiao Ran, what did you mean by what you said in the bridge just now?"
"Just like what I'm saying." Xiao Ran shrugged and greeted Mary and Mu. Then, he sat down on the only place where he could sit — Mary's bed. Mary was stunned when she saw Xiao Ran's action. Just as she was about to open her mouth, she looked at Xiao Ran as if nothing had happened, hoping to get an explanation from Xiao Ran about what he said earlier.
Bakirulu said, "I don't understand."
Xiao Ran shook his head and pointed to the display on the wall in front of him. "The red place is where we are, North Africa, and the blue place is our destination, Alaska. As you can see, it's almost half a world away. Even if there are no enemies blocking us, it will take us a lot of time to get there. After all, the Archangel doesn't have the speed of a plane."
"And if we want to go to Alaska from the enemy-occupied area, not only will we have to face the enemy on the ground, but also the enemy at sea. We will have to fight one battle after another, and even take a detour to avoid fighting. We will have to break through the enemy's blockade. How much time will we spend in this way?"
"It's funny when you think about it. The place where the Archangel landed is too suitable. I don't know how many people can sleep peacefully for a long time. A warship that Zaft swore to sink is now rampaging through their territory. How much of Zaft's military power do you think we'll attract? " As Xiao Ran spoke, he looked at the three of them with an interested gaze. "If General Halbarton sent the information about the attack on Gundam to the Moon, I would like to ask you guys again. What is the thing that the Earth Army lacks the most right now? And without General Halbarton, do you think anyone other than him will send troops to rescue us at all costs? "
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Mary and the other two fell silent. The meaning in Xiao Ran's words was very clear. They had become abandoned pawns that the Earth Army had thrown to Zaft in order to buy time. They could not deny what Xiao Ran said. After all, it was very likely to become a reality.
"What you said can't be confirmed at all. It's all speculation." Bakirulu suddenly raised her head and said in a questioning tone, "And this is Zaft's sphere of influence. The Earth Army doesn't have the strength to come here to rescue us! Even if they want to rescue us, they can't contact us because of the neutron jammer. What's your purpose in saying these words to shake the morale of the army? "
