No one noticed the sudden appearance of two battleships, one big and one small, in the universe. Even if these two battleships were larger than the normal battleships of this world, compared to the vast universe, they were like a drop in the ocean, not even comparable to a drop in the ocean.
When the two warships first appeared in this world, their systems, including their engines, were all shut down. Following Mary's command, the pitch-black warship gradually lit up from head to tail. Next to the Burning Legion, a much smaller warship also lit up along with the Burning Legion.
Not long after Mary asked Moses to contact the Frontier, almost half of the bridge of the Frontier appeared on the screen of the Burning Legion. Captain Jay Vry and Ozma also appeared on the screen. Everyone nodded through the screen. Mary then asked, "How's the situation on your side?"
Captain Jay Vry's eyes moved as if he was looking at the three people on the bridge. He then replied, "Everything's normal. We're currently rebooting the system. I've already asked everyone to enter the waiting room. If there's any situation, we can attack immediately."
At this time, Moses also confirmed the location of the Burning Legion and the Frontier. He immediately reported, "The current location has been calculated. It's in the orbit of Jupiter, in the opposite direction of Jupiter."
"Jupiter?"
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows slightly. He naturally knew that the greatest enemy of mankind in this world of 00 existed on or near Jupiter. Coincidentally, the GN solar furnace was also manufactured on Jupiter. It was hard to say if there was any connection between the two. However, the connection wasn't important to Xiao Ran. After all, his mission this time wasn't the decryption process. He was just thrown into Jupiter's orbit at the beginning of the mission. It was hard to say if this was a subtle hint given by Prometheus at the beginning of the mission, hinting that there was a target on Jupiter that they really needed to pay attention to.
Of course, Xiao Ran would only think this way if he knew the cause and effect of the story. If he didn't know the plot, he wouldn't know how special Jupiter was. Similarly, he wouldn't have made any other connections to Jupiter. But even so, it gave Xiao Ran a small reminder. He absolutely couldn't recklessly use his purebred mutant state in this world, nor could he freely release his brain waves to stimulate GN particles to battle. Otherwise, it would be like poking a hornet's nest and it would definitely not end well.
"What's wrong?" This was also Ma Liu's first time in this world. Apart from Shirley Lilu, Graham from this world, Ash's group of four, and Team W, who had come to this world before but didn't know much about this world, this was also the first time the others had come to this world. Seeing Xiao Ran's strange reaction to the word 'Jupiter', Ma Liu naturally felt that something was wrong and that she needed to pay attention to.
Xiao Ran shook his head. "It's nothing. It's just that the enemy we'll face in the end is probably hiding on Jupiter."
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Mary, El Erf, and Cruzet all frowned slightly. Mary even frowned and asked, "What will happen if we go up against those enemies with our current strength?"
"It's hard to say." Xiao Ran rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully, "Although those things don't actually have any real combat ability, once they come into contact with them, they'll assimilate and become part of the enemy's combat force. It's the same for both MS and battleships. Unless the miniaturized missiles can be successfully detonated, they'll be useless against those enemies. No matter how many of them there are, if the quality isn't good enough, they'll only become nourishment to strengthen the enemy. And the more soldiers there are on our side, the more troublesome it will be. For now, we don't have to worry about them."
El Erf looked at Xiao Ran and asked a more sensitive question. "Live ammunition doesn't work?"
"Maybe there's even a way to be immune to beam attacks." Xiao Ran spread his hands and gave an answer that made everyone feel a little helpless. After all, the ELS could be considered as an alternative life form that could assimilate, devour, and show an extremely strong ability to adapt. Who knew if it would become immune to beam attacks after devouring something, just like the Zergs in the Spaceship World.
"Isn't that the same as the Zergs?" Sherry Dew crossed her legs and turned her chair to face Xiao Ran. This sentence made everyone, including Xiao Ran, ponder. Speaking of which, there were many similarities between the ELS and the Zergs. They both fought in groups, and based on their performance, they were both controlled by a master. What was more similar was that they didn't really want to fight. They were existences that could be solved by understanding and communication.
"Could it be that Sherry Dew's singing is also useful?" Xiao Ran looked at Sherry Dew. This was not impossible. Whether it was the mutants or the singers, they were essentially products that existed to understand each other. However, the mutants' abilities were more suitable for combat. The brain quantum wave was a unique ability, while the singers were purely for communication and support. In particular, the singers in the Spaceship World had both singing ability and the FOLD wave ability. Xiao Ran even suspected that the 00 world was more or less a tribute to the Ultra Space-Time Fortress world.
But Xiao Ran immediately shook his head. No matter what, Xiao Ran would not allow himself, Sherry Dew, or anyone in the entire army to become an ELS existence by connecting the two races. So even if Sherry Dew's singing really had an effect on the ELS, Xiao Ran would never let Sherry Dew be the node to bear the heavy responsibility of the coexistence of the two races in this world.
Once one was ELS, one would really become neither human nor ghost. Xiao Ran absolutely could not accept himself and the people he cared about becoming like that, even if he became stronger as a result. What the hell was with that metallic appearance? In any case, Xiao Ran, who cared deeply about his own human race, absolutely could not accept it. And even if Xiao Ran had now become a participant and a mutant, which could be considered to have transcended the norm of humans, no matter what, he was still a human being.
Not only Xiao Ran, perhaps except for Sherry Dew, El Erf, Cruzet, and Mary were all aware of this, but after glancing at Xiao Ran, they sensibly pretended not to notice anything.
Xiao Ran snapped out of his thoughts, clapped his hands, and said, "Okay, let's not talk about the other side for now. But I have to tell everyone in advance that I'm afraid I will be greatly restricted in this mission. Once I activate my mutant state, I will definitely be targeted. My brain waves are like flames, and they are like moths. They will devour me at all costs to fuse with me. The real main force of this mission will depend on you guys."
After listening to Xiao Ran's words, everyone nodded. Sherry Dew frowned and looked at Xiao Ran worriedly. On the screen, Captain Vry Jay and Ozma also remained silent. The voices on the bridge were transmitted simultaneously to the other side, but since they didn't know what was going on, they naturally didn't say much.
Xiao Ran glanced at everyone and said, "Since we have determined our current position, let's start moving toward Earth. Choose a suitable distance and jump. First, let some people go to Earth to figure out the current situation on Earth. I also need to get in touch with the forces left behind in this world before arranging for the rest to go. If we can take over the forces left behind, it will be of great help to the next mission."
"After the jump, the Burning Legion will find a place to hide. A battleship of this size is too conspicuous, and it's not the time to expose ourselves. The Frontier will stay with the Burning Legion for the time being. I will contact you when needed."
"Understood."
Mary and Captain Vry Jay nodded at the same time. After a discussion, they decided to temporarily leave the Burning Legion and the Frontier in the asteroid belt between Mars and Earth's orbit. There was enough space and bunkers to hide the two battleships. Although the two battleships were just a tiny existence in the vast universe that wouldn't attract attention at all, they would be easily discovered if they got too close to Earth. It was always a good thing to be safe.
A short-distance jump wouldn't take too long, but how to go to Earth next and who to bring with them were things that had to be considered.
First of all, El Erf, Cruzet, and Graham had to be brought along. Sherry Dew didn't want to stay on the ship, but they couldn't refuse to go to Earth with her. Including Xiao Ran, there were five people. The number of people was still too small, and Law had to go with them. If the time was right, he would have to take over the technical department of the Celestial Being's subordinate organization, Celestial Being, that was founded by Xiao Ran.
Should they bring some people who could run errands? After all, it would be more convenient to have a few people running errands if they encountered any situation. At the same time, Sherry Dew also needed someone to protect her, even if Sherry Dew's attributes and ability had the ability to protect herself. After thinking about it, Xiao Ran also brought along the five members of the W team. Four of them had carried out missions in this world before, so they had a basic understanding of this world. It would be more convenient for them to do things.
The eleven people of the advance team thus decided. After the Burning Legion and Frontier arrived at the meteorite belt between the orbit of Mars and Earth, they set off in the VF-27, which was originally used as a drone in the Burning Legion. Xiao Ran even dug out the body of the VF-27, which had been built but had been kept at the bottom of the box since it was built. The VF-27, which had been strengthened to the extreme and successfully promoted to the B-class, was finally taken out by Xiao Ran. He personally flew it directly to Earth with Sherry Dew.
The six shapeshifting fighters were launched at full speed. Like real light, they quickly disappeared from the screens of the Burning Legion and Frontier. The cruising speed of a shapeshifting fighter and its combat speed were two completely different things. The cruising speed allowed the shapeshifting fighter to move within the range of the planet, and it also required a certain amount of time to reach its maximum speed. But if one wanted to engage in combat with the cruising speed, then there was only one word to describe it.
In the Burning Legion, the Borderlands, and even the Milky Way Songstress that was not used during this mission, there were a certain number of VF-25 and VF-27, two types of consumables that could be piloted by pilots and used in unmanned combat. Moreover, there were quite a number of them, at least a dozen of them. The rest were the real GHOST drones.
And in the Burning Legion, the number was even more terrifying. It must be known that the Burning Legion was originally several times the size of the small MACROSS class, and its capacity was also many times larger. Just the Gnacou alone was divided into several levels. Whether it was the VF-25, VF-27 or the mass-produced heretics from World 0079, there were a certain number of them. They were almost all accessories of the battleship. Along with the battleship, Xiao Ran had also paid some cost price for the battleship and its numerous bodies.
If they could directly recruit a group of suitable pilots from this world, then the Burning Legion could directly create a powerful army in the shortest time possible. It could be said that the Burning Legion truly represented the current combat strength of the Burning Legion. For this mission, Xiao Ran could be said to have taken out all his assets. If they failed, the losses would be huge.
A few hours later, the six transformed battle planes did not stop at all. They drilled directly into Earth and disappeared very quickly. Their speed was so fast that even the Earth Federation's surveillance equipment had not been able to figure out what these things that had fallen into Earth were. In just a few seconds, the red dots had left their surveillance, causing alarms to ring all over the place.
Less than an hour after Xiao Ran's group landed, the nearest Federation army arrived. Following that, the world's largest military force, A-Laws, also responded in a timely manner and sent out many forces to search the entire area. But in the end, they could only look at the calm sea helplessly.
At this time, Xiao Ran and the others had already hidden the shapeshifting fighters they were piloting. After arriving on Earth, the six fighters flew at an extremely low altitude, almost close to the surface of the sea. Only when they arrived at an uninhabited coast did they disembark from the fighters. The eleven of them quickly left the uninhabited coast, while the six shapeshifting fighters dived into the sea under Harrow's control in MS form.
No one would have thought that the things that flew into Earth were six shapeshifting fighters that were different from this world's technological system. In just a short period of time, they were able to fly almost half of the Earth and completely out of their detection range. This matter was treated as a secret and began to be reported to the Federation's president. A-Laws did not give up the search because they could not find anything. Instead, they increased their efforts to continue searching for clues.
This unusual incident also attracted the attention of the Celestial Organization and Livonz, who controlled the entire Federation from behind the scenes.
