In the Gnacou, Xiao Ran leaned against the foot of the Assault Gundam, his arms crossed and his head lowered as he pondered. Meanwhile, Ro Joel was crawling in and out of the cockpit of the Assault Gundam. He would climb up and down from time to time to study some of the data and construction concepts of the Assault Gundam. The most important thing was the technology that wasn't used in the Red Heresy Gundam. He was using this to compare the difference between the Assault Gundam and the Red Heresy Gundam.
Xiao Ran suddenly looked up at Ro Joel who was completely immersed in his own world. He sighed helplessly. It wasn't because of Ro Joel, but because Xiao Ran sighed because he didn't get anything out of his thoughts.
In his thoughts, Xiao Ran assumed that he would leave this world at the end of the final battle between Zaft and the Earth Alliance Army. Although there was still more than half a year from now until the final battle, Xiao Ran couldn't find a suitable Gundam apart from the Miscellaneous Gundam that he was satisfied with and wanted to take away.
In the world of the Gundam SEED, among the two paths that Xiao Ran could come into contact with, the Freedom, Justice and Divine Will Gundam were naturally the best. Xiao Ran couldn't get them even if he wanted them. But now, these three Gundam had yet to appear. Even if they did appear, the Gundam's grade would be at least B-Grade. Putting aside the possibility of obtaining them, Xiao Ran didn't have the ability to pilot a B-Grade Gundam. If he could only use 80% of the C-Grade Gundam's performance, it was really hard to say what kind of performance he could use with a B-Grade Gundam.
The few Gundams that appeared now should be between D + and C- grade before they were modified. Unfortunately, the Red, Blue and Gold Gundam already had owners and had been modified. Except for Ro Joel, the owners of the other two Gundams weren't simple characters. No matter what, it was impossible to obtain any of the three Gundams.
As for the five G-series Gundams, there was no doubt that they were all C-class mecha. Among the five mecha, Assault, Sacred Shield, Storm, Duel, and Thunderbolt, the Sacred Shield should not have self-destructed. The Thunderbolt was also destroyed when it was cut in half by Kira. The Duel had always been in the hands of Y'zak, so he could only obtain the Storm and Assault. Xiao Ran could only leave the Storm to Diego to drive. Although Xiao Ran was satisfied with the Storm's artillery type body, especially with the phase-transfer armor in his hands, it could definitely become an excellent turret. However, the Storm Gundam also had a weakness. That was, it lacked the strength to fight in the atmosphere. A Storm Gundam that could not fly had poor mobility. It was not the type that Xiao Ran wanted at all. For the sake of the plot, Xiao Ran would also give up on this mecha.
Xiao Ran had never thought of attacking Gundam. It was not suitable for his style. Moreover, he did not know how to change the mecha's equipment if he entered the next world. Could it be that he would use his small hands? His hands could not lift the equipment backpack that was too big for his body. In other words, Xiao Ran gave up on the mecha that needed to be replaced to display its greatest combat strength.
There were also the three mecha that strengthened people, Calamity, Forbidden, and Snatch. Xiao Ran was interested in the transformable Snatch Gundam, but the weapons equipped with the mecha were not so satisfactory. Although they had been modified, it was not clear whether they could be captured or not.
What about the other mecha that appeared? There were still many mecha in the outside world, but Xiao Ran did not have the ability to come into contact with them. Unless he completely abandoned the Archangel, gave up the little advantage he had accumulated since he came to this world, and turned around to hug Paul Jule's thigh tightly, it was possible for him to come into contact with the other mecha in the outside world. But if he really did that, it would simply be neglecting the essentials.
In fact, in Xiao Ran's mind, he hoped to obtain a mecha that was fast and had the ability to fly on Earth. It would be best if it was a mid-range mecha that could be used for both short and long distance travel.
There were quite a lot of mecha that he could think of, but there was none that he was satisfied with. It was no wonder that Xiao Ran sighed. After coming to this familiar world, Xiao Ran certainly did not want to leave with a miscellaneous mecha. Even if it was not a Gundam, he wanted to at least get a C-grade mecha. At least that way, he could close the gap between himself and the other participants, and also ignore the series of problems caused by the upgrade of the mecha after the D-grade piloting skill upgrade.
Compared to that, Xiao Ran would rather pilot the D-grade mecha as if it was his own arm. He would be able to fully display 100% of its ability, and even be able to perform better than usual at certain times. He also did not want to pilot a C-grade mecha that could only display 80% of its ability. It should be known that the remaining 20% might be the key to victory or death. Once he could not fully control the mecha and issued a wrong order at a critical moment, he would not deserve sympathy even if he died.
But Xiao Ran wanted at least a C-grade mecha, and he would rather pilot a D-grade mecha. They were not in the same class at all. The difference between classes was not just a matter of the mecha's strength and performance, but more importantly, whether the pilot could fully display the mecha's abilities. Once a D-grade mecha was fully displayed, it was not impossible to defeat a C-grade mecha that could not be operated properly.
The reason why Xiao Ran was so enthusiastic about Paul Jule was not only because Paul Jule was the protagonist of the story, but also because he knew that Paul Jule was definitely the strongest expert in the field of MS machinery in this world. As long as he could get Luo's help in these aspects, it was definitely something that could be done with a little bit of time. For example, he could make some modifications to the C-grade mecha, downgrade it to D-grade, but still maintain the possibility of it becoming a C-grade mecha again. In addition, he could also reserve some equipment interfaces, plug-in interfaces, and so on to facilitate the modification and enhancement of the mecha. It could be said that the workload was very heavy, and almost the entire mecha had to be remodeled.
And the only person in this world who could do what Xiao Ran wanted was Paul Jule. That was why he was full of enthusiasm after seeing Luo. He deliberately stirred up all kinds of topics and finally invited Luo to the Archangel. It was all for the sake of his plan.
Originally, before meeting Paul Jule here, Xiao Ran originally wanted to leave the Archangel and join Aube when the Archangel arrived in Aube. He also hoped to find Paul Jule, who worked near Aube, and use the information he had on the Assault Gundam to get Aube to help him pay for inviting Paul Jule to modify the mecha. But now, not only did he meet Paul Jule in advance, it seemed that the relationship between the two had become very good. Naturally, he did not need Aube's participation. However, he still had to give the information on the Assault Gundam to Aube, but the price would have to be changed.
"Since I can't find a suitable mecha, I can only let Aube make a suitable mecha." Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and looked at Paul Jule, who was slowly climbing down from the Assault Gundam, and said in his heart, "Of course, he is also indispensable."
Seeing Luo coming to him, Xiao Ran smiled and asked, "What's the gain?"
Without affecting the optimization of movement, I can also slightly simplify and strengthen the joint structure. It's no wonder that this thing called Gundam can withstand more weight in terms of armor. Moreover, the structure is very compact. I don't have to worry about the body not being able to withstand some rapid changes in direction, which would lead to problems in the case of the body being unable to withstand.
Luo finished excitedly, but then said with some regret: "It's a pity that I can't get the parameters of the armor that changes color, but even if I get the information, I can't do it without the corresponding equipment. By the way, Xiao Ran, can I actually operate the mecha? "
"Of course, no problem." Xiao Ran smiled, pondered for a moment, and whispered: "Do you know General Halbarton, who is in charge of this project?"
"The captive general of the earth army." Paul Jule nodded strangely: "I know, what's wrong?"
Xiao Ran tilted his head and looked at Paul as if nothing had happened, and said softly: "Because I belong to the Special Affairs Department, I have the right to act completely independently. He gave me a set of parameters of the mecha before and asked me to decide on my own according to the situation. It's the last safeguard after the Assault Gundam is broken. No one except me in the Archangel knows about it. Are you interested?"
"Well, really?" Luo's eyes suddenly lit up.
"We'll talk about that later, but you have to promise me that if the Archangel sinks one day and I die, you must give the information to the Earth Army. It's my guarantee to General Halbarton, and it's also my insurance." Xiao Ran patted Luo on the shoulder with a calm face, and said leisurely: "But if I don't die, the Archangel doesn't sink, and the Earth Army abandons us, then I don't think they will care about these things. What do you think, Luo?"
Luo scratched his head and thought for a moment, then agreed with a smile: "Hiss, I think … you're right."
Not far away, Madoc and Mu, who were on duty, looked at Xiao Ran and Luo with a confused look on their faces. Madoc asked Mu with some worry: "Brother Mu, is it okay for Xiao Ran to do this?"
"I don't know what he's up to, maybe the Captain knows." Mu shook his head and whispered: "But Xiao Ran is definitely the kind of guy who will help him count the money. He won't let himself suffer. You can rest assured that he is still on the Archangel. He won't let anything happen to the Archangel no matter who he is."
