Mirai didn't know if Xiao Ran was telling the truth or not. Even if it was a lie, seeing how calm Xiao Ran looked, she felt like he was making a solemn vow. Even if it was the truth, the information revealed by Xiao Ran's words was too shocking and terrifying. If even a little bit of it was leaked out, their ship would immediately become the target of both the Earth Federation and Gu Wenjun. They would instantly be involved in the center of the battle between the two forces.
Among the three girls, Mirai was the most mature. She could think of more things than Aldacia and Frau. She was also very clear that she had no other choice but to join. She could only smile bitterly in her heart.
Xiao Ran looked at the three girls and clapped his hands lightly. "We still have about two hours. You can familiarize yourselves with the bridge here so that you don't get flustered during the battle."
As soon as Xiao Ran finished speaking, Captain Vry added, "Monica, I'll leave the three of them to you."
"Yes, Captain." The orange-haired girl in the bridge smiled and nodded. At the same time, Monica also admired Captain Jeffery in her heart. After Captain Vry finished speaking, she responded and walked towards Aldacia and the other two girls.
When Monica smiled, her eyes narrowed slightly. She looked like a gentle person who was easy to talk to. Compared to Xiao Ran, the three girls thought that Monica was easier to get along with.
While Monica was familiarizing the three girls with the equipment in the bridge, Xiao Ran also looked at the members of the Skeleton Squad, Dugus, Nalor, and Ozma. After looking at them one by one, Xiao Ran pondered and slowly said, "At present, we can confirm that we have obtained six airframes. In order to ensure that the six airframes can display the greatest combat power, priority is given to the pilots who are currently unaffected."
Xiao Ran's unaffected was naturally referring to Prometheus's weakening effect. In the current team, Nalor, El Erf, and so on. Dugus, Ryukino, and even Xiao Ran weren't in their best condition. However, the members of the Skeleton Squad were different. They joined this mission world as newcomers. Their attributes weren't suppressed at all. Instead, because of their individual talents, after being digitized by Prometheus, each of them was strengthened a lot because of the digitization. The most direct was the direct manifestation of their skills.
Among the five members of the Skeleton Squad, Ozma and Brera's piloting skills were of course the best two, followed by Arte and Michelle, followed by Luca, who was in charge of supporting investigation.
Letting Ryukino pilot the Gundam was only a previous decision to ensure safety. El Erf wasn't a suitable pilot, so it was necessary to replace the two of them and replace them with someone else.
Xiao Ran thought for a moment. A total of six bodies was just enough for the Skeleton Squad and the six of them. However, he had to think about who would pilot which body. He glanced at Arte, then at Ozma. Xiao Ran nodded and said, "I will personally pilot one of the six bodies. Arte, Brera, you two will take over El Erf and Ryukino's bodies."
Xiao Ran let Arte, whose piloting skills were slightly inferior to Ozma's, pilot the Gundam because Arte was more impulsive during battle. Piloting the Gundam was safer. Brera's piloting style was also quite aggressive. Piloting the Gundam was not only safer, but also more effective.
As for Ozma, he was more stable than the young people, even if he was piloting the Zagu II. As long as he was careful, there wouldn't be a problem. Moreover, the only one that could be used directly was the Zagu II.
As for the little boy Luca, Xiao Ran felt that it was safest for him to stay on the bridge. In addition, Xiao Ran had already predicted that there would be a steel cannon piloted by Michelle, who specialized in sniping. That was the general arrangement. After repairing the remaining two Zagus, Xiao Ran planned to give one of them to Dugus and let Nalor pilot the other one.
In fact, Xiao Ran didn't have to pilot the Gundam. He wanted to let the newcomers pilot all three Zagus. However, with the current performance of the Zagu II, Xiao Ran was unable to fully unleash his full potential. Even if he could unleash 120% of the Zagu II's performance, it would be the same. Therefore, piloting a Grade-C Gundam was something that couldn't be helped.
"If we can find a suitable place to modify the body, we won't have to worry so much. Forget it, be careful. As long as we can get to the moon, these problems can be solved." Xiao Ran shook his head and continued, "Of the three remaining mechs, only one can be put into use immediately. Ozma, I'll leave this mech to you, but be careful. This Zagu II's performance can't compare to the mechs we're piloting. You're much steadier than them, so be careful when you're fighting."
"I know." Ozma didn't feel bad about piloting a body that wasn't as good as piloting a body. As the captain, he naturally had to consider more for his team members. Instead, Arte was stunned for a moment. He wanted to open his mouth and let go of his body, but he was gently pulled by Michelle who shook her head at him.
Xiao Ran also saw Michelle's action. He smiled and said to Michelle, "Michelle, I think we will get a cannon type body in the future. Although it is somewhat different from the sniper type body you are good at piloting, I think it shouldn't be a problem for you to pilot it."
Michelle pushed her glasses and showed a charming smile, "For me, as long as I have a gun, any body is the same."
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "If the last two bodies are repaired, Dugus, Nalor, each of you will pilot one."
"Yes." Dugus and Nalor simply responded. After the two received their replies, Xiao Ran said to Luca, "Luca, you don't need to join in the frontal battle. However, you also need to share the firepower control of the warship. The firepower from the sides and the bottom of the warship is very weak. Most of the time, it needs manual operation to achieve better results."
"I know." Luca pouted and nodded. His cute look made Millay, who was on the other side, stunned. "Such a young child and he is already on the battlefield?"
Monica smiled. "Don't underestimate him. He's a qualified warrior. He's very good at scouting the battlefield."
Millay was stunned. She asked in puzzlement, "Did you all receive training from a young age?"
"How is that possible?" Monica covered her mouth and smiled. She gently shook her head and said, "We all have our own normal lives. We joined here because of our own reasons. Don't think of us as those who were trained and instilled with evil thoughts from a young age."
"I'm sorry." Millay smiled apologetically at Monica. She turned to look at the steering wheel of the warship and asked, "My job in the future is to be responsible for controlling this warship, right? But since you have so many people, why don't you have a helmsman?"
Monica didn't hide anything from Millay. However, she didn't tell Millay too much in detail. "It's not that we don't have one, but our helmsman is performing other tasks. That person is also very powerful. Well, don't ask me more questions. I can't tell you any more without permission. "
"I understand." Millay nodded.
On the other side, Xiao Ran also said to Nalor, "Nalor, choose someone from your side. It's best if they are willing to be the helmsman. From now on, they will work on the bridge and learn how to control the warship from Miss Millay."
"Okay, I'll take a look in a while."
After the arrangement was completed, Xiao Ran also asked everyone to have a good rest and left the bridge. He went to the Gnacou where the Gundam was parked, sat in the cockpit, and began to check all the data of the body. A qualified pilot must have the most understanding of his own Mech. Xiao Ran didn't check the body's system and data before because there was not enough time. Now that there was more than an hour left, Xiao Ran could really familiarize himself with this black Gundam.
After Xiao Ran left, everyone in the Skeleton Squad also left. Only Ozma stayed in the bridge alone. Nalor had to find her own people and choose a suitable person to decide her future development direction. Dugus also left the bridge alone.
When the three people in the bridge heard that they could rest, they also left happily. Of course, this included things like choosing their own room in the warship, so they also left with the three newcomers and began to stroll around the living area. While familiarizing themselves with the structure of the warship, they quickly assigned their own rooms.
In the end, Millay and Aldacia were assigned a double room, while Monica and Frau shared a room. After the others left to tidy up their own rooms, Millay and Aldacia were also busy in their own rooms. At first, the two didn't talk much, but it didn't take long for Millay to put down the work in her hands, sit on the bed, and look at Aldacia.
"That … can I call you Aldacia? Now that I know your real name, I feel that it's not very good to call you by that name."
Aldacia turned around and nodded at Millay, "Of course, this isn't the Earth Federation or Guyon. It doesn't matter what name you call me."
Millay nodded gently. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Do you believe what Arikos said?"
"I don't know." Aldacia hesitated for a moment, but she still shook her head, "What he said is too scary. If it's true, then it's even scarier. The whole world has been deceived by the privileged class of the Earth Federation. They've been deceived by them, and no one has discovered this deception for so many years."
"But whether it's true or not, there's no way for us to retreat. We can either join them or be locked up by them. What else can we do but believe in them?" Aldacia also sat down and sighed slightly, "I just don't know how many people they … no, how many people are in our organization, and what kind of power is behind them. Fighting against the Earth Federation may be inevitable, but in the end, whether we can resist the pressure of the Earth Federation is the most important thing."
"Yeah, after knowing so much, it's impossible for us to retreat." Millay also shook her head. After looking at Aldacia, she said, "But it's really hard to believe that you're actually the daughter of the Dyken family of Guyon's founding father, and that you would be stranded in a place like this. It's really unbelievable. Do you still remember what happened back then?"
Aldacia lowered her head and shook it gently, "This is something that happened a long, long time ago. The current Guyon is the Guyon controlled by the Zabi family, not the Guyon in my father's mind. And so many years have passed since then, and I don't remember many things clearly."
It wasn't that she couldn't remember. Even though she was still young at that time, how could she not remember such an important period of time when her fate changed? It was just that it had all happened so long ago that she didn't want to remember it.
Seeing Aldacia's appearance, Millay knew that Aldacia didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the topic, "Well, Mr. Arikos said that your brother is the Crimson Comet Xiaya. Do you agree? It's really hard to imagine that the famous Crimson Comet is the eldest son of the Dyken family. Didn't the news say that your brother was assassinated?"
"No, I have a feeling that my brother is still alive!" Speaking of Xiaya, Aldacia seemed a little impulsive, but after she reacted, she smiled apologetically at Millay, "I believe it, because as Mr. Arikos said, this kind of lie won't last long. Since my brother has joined this organization, and I have been looking for him all this time, if I don't join this organization, I don't know when I'll be able to see him again. So, this is the reason why I joined."
"I believe that even though you have heard so many things that you shouldn't have, it isn't the real reason why you joined this organization. I think you also want to see the changes in this world, right?"
Millay looked at the ceiling, "Maybe."
Soon, an hour passed, and El Erf transported the three Zagus back. In addition to the Zagus, there was also a steel cannon that Xiao Ran had expected, and a new steel tank from the Earth Army. The steel tank was directly sent to the third Gnacou under Xiao Ran's arrangement, while the steel cannon squeezed into the Gnacou where the two Zagus were placed.
