Xiao Ran tried his best to understand everything that had happened to him after he left this world through the internet. He also had a basic understanding of his time away from this world. He was quite calm about the so-called 'terrorist attacks' that happened all over the world. He didn't feel that it was wrong for such a thing to happen under Livonz's leadership. To a certain extent, both Xiao Ran and Livonz were the kind of people who would do anything to achieve their goals.
Previously, in order to complete the 3rd Main Mission, Xiao Ran had issued an order to Wang Liumei and Laguna, one of the biggest backers of the Celestials. Whether it was assassination, threats, bribery, or roping in, he had to convince as many countries to join the Earth Federation as possible within a month. This method was no different from what Livonz used to unify the world. However, Xiao Ran's method was more secretive and targeted individuals. He was more concerned about winning the hearts of the people. On the other hand, Livonz despised the Celestials and had greater control over the Federation, so he was more unscrupulous in his actions.
However, Xiao Ran only had half a year to complete the first requirement of the Ultimate Mission, which was to unify the world and establish a new world government within half a year. The first requirement was to achieve what Livonz had planned for four years, but he couldn't. For the past four years, there had been resistance forces all over the world that were against the Federation. Therefore, Xiao Ran wouldn't be able to achieve this in time. He would have to do the same thing as Livonz, or even more ruthless than what Livonz had done.
As for the latter, it depended on how the person who received the mission understood it. It was also the key point that was closely related to the former. Xiao Ran could choose to establish a new Earth Federation, but half a year was too short. Unless the entire world was shaken, Xiao Ran would lead those who were willing to join him and control the entire world with a thunderous force. However, the key was still time.
Of course, Xiao Ran could also choose to use the current Earth Federation as the main body to overthrow the current Federation. Just like in the original plot, he could use a coup d 'état to establish a new Federation government. This method didn't require as much time as the previous method. With the current dissatisfaction and chaos of the world towards the new Federation government, once he stood on the side of the coup d' état, he would naturally gain the approval of the anti- Federation forces. According to the original plot, this was indeed the only feasible method. Xiao Ran planned to use this method to complete this mission. As long as he allowed nature to take its course, Xiao Ran was confident that he could achieve his goal in half a year's time.
The former could form an alliance with Livonz and expand his strength faster. He would have a complete logistical, supply, and troop channel, but he would definitely become the enemy of the Celestials. The latter would stand on the Celestials' side and fight against Livonz. He would lack resources and manpower, and he would become the enemy of most forces in the world. However, Xiao Ran was more willing to continue working with the Celestials than with Livonz.
When Xiao Ran turned off the computer, Graham had also just hung up the phone. Sherry Dew walked to Xiao Ran's side and placed a hand gently on Xiao Ran's shoulder. She and Xiao Ran looked at Graham, who had just hung up the phone.
Graham noticed the look in their eyes. He turned back to Xiao Ran and said, "I've contacted Piatong."
Xiao Ran nodded and continued to look at Graham. The latter knew what Xiao Ran was concerned about, so he told him the information he got from Piatong, "The Celestials have changed a lot, but it's not that big either. The base has always been under Professor Raphael's control. However, both Laguna and Wang Liumei have planted a lot of people in the base and bribed some of them. Their authority has also been restricted to a certain extent. Fortunately, with the help of Hanayu, Hicks, and a few other people who joined the Celestials, the current situation has been stabilized."
"And because of the military forces we left behind, Laguna and Wang Liumei dare not go too far. However, Laguna has now become the Federation's number one military supplier. Although he still gives a fixed amount of income to Professor Raphael according to the original allocation, his income has gradually decreased in recent years. Other than the necessary exchanges, he has gradually distanced himself from the Celestials. He only ensures his authority in the Celestials and restricts Professor Raphael's authority."
"The changes on Wang Liumei's side are not that big, but Piatong said that although Wang Liumei doesn't seem to have changed much on the surface, except for the forceful arrangement of some people to important departments in the base, she hasn't shown any signs of overstepping her authority. However, Professor Raphael speculated that Wang Liumei should have connected with another person, but he didn't know the more specific reasons for maintaining the current situation. However, Wang Liumei controls all the intelligence channels of the Celestials and has important responsibilities in logistics, so Professor Raphael has to make concessions sometimes."
Xiao Ran frowned slightly and said, "In other words, Laguna has changed his mind. Either he wants to completely control the Celestials to serve him, or he wants to truly cut off all ties with the Celestials? Even Wang Liumei has other ideas, but I don't know what purpose she has to maintain the current situation of the Celestials? "
"Something like that." Graham nodded and said, "Piatong told me that the current Celestials are basically untrustworthy except for their own military forces and some old people. He said that he hoped to meet us in person, but I rejected him. "
"Rejecting him was the right thing to do. Even if we have to meet him, it won't be any of the three of us." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "I originally thought that I could take over the Celestials again, but now it seems that it won't be that easy. Let's not talk about Laguna. If he's faced with a life-and-death threat, that guy knows what to do. He's very practical. He knows what to do when it comes to the safety of his life and the long-term benefits."
"The one we really need to pay attention to is Wang Liumei. She's a dreamer. I think she might have connected with Livonz, who made a deal with me before. The people who were arranged to be in the Celestials are probably Livonz's subordinates. Now we need to determine Wang Liumei's position in Livonz's group. If we can deal with Laguna and Wang Liumei, the matter of the base will be simple. As long as there are people in the base, it can be a base anywhere."
Graham was not worried or nervous about the current situation. He only asked, "Then what should we do?"
Xiao Ran put his hand on his chin and fell silent. He had entered Earth from space without any disguise and appeared in a tourist town with so many people. Xiao Ran had every reason to believe that his return had been discovered by Livonz and the Celestials, who had a terrifying intelligence network. Under such circumstances, there was not much point in continuing to hide. His goal was to deal with everything in a week and let the rest of the army enter space. He even wanted to find a reasonable way to make the Frontier appear on Earth or somewhere around it.
The reason why he needed a reasonable reason was that if the Frontier, a battleship that was completely out of the Celestials' and Federation's technology, appeared, it would be easily seen as an outsider and targeted by the humans of this world. The saying that 'those who are not of our race are bound to have different intentions' did not only exist in Xiao Ran's world. Otherwise, once Xiao Ran was seen as an invader, the pressure he would have to face would come from the entire world, not just Livonz, the Federation, or the Celestials.
Even if the larger Burning Legion should not be exposed, and the purpose of this mission was to train the members of the army, the Frontier's powerful ability was also an important shield to ensure the safety of the army members. Having such a mobile base was the safest thing.
Therefore, if Xiao Ran continued to hide, it would be impossible for him to gain more authority in this world after leaving for four years. He had to stand up and confront the enemy personally in order to gain more advantages in the upcoming missions. Allowing the other members to enter Earth within a week did not mean that all the participants would be treated as combatants. The first rule of completing a mission within half a year was not only about missions, but also about all kinds of schemes and messy matters. This kind of environment could also train the members, allowing them to learn how to truly integrate into the mission world. They would not be like idiots who only knew how to complete the mission given by Prometheus and join a faction just to be used as a soldier. They did not know how to take advantage of the situation, nor did they know how to use other conditions to reduce the difficulty of the mission, nor did they know how to use the advantages of their faction to gain more benefits. But this kind of environment could also train the members, allowing them to learn how to truly integrate into the mission world. They would not be like idiots who only knew how to complete the mission given by Prometheus and join a faction just to be used as a soldier.
Among the participants of Prometheus, there were definitely people who were good at taking advantage of the situation. However, in this regard, no one in the participants of Prometheus could compare to Xiao Ran. His understanding of the storyline allowed him to stand on the right side of every choice, and he could also foresee the future and obtain greater benefits from places that would not be noticed at all. In this regard, Xiao Ran had a natural advantage that could not be shared. However, Xiao Ran also wanted to make the members of his army smarter.
Before Xiao Ran could answer, Graham felt the team communicator on his chest vibrate. He took it out and listened to a few words. After that, he quickly looked at Xiao Ran. "Sir, El Erf said that something is wrong. He has already brought Cruzet and Law out of the town and asked Team W to leave the town to receive the Airframe."
"Sure enough, we've been discovered." Xiao Ran was not surprised to hear Graham's words because he had already expected this moment to come soon. Xiao Ran glanced at Sherry Dew beside him and patted Sherry Dew's hand with a smile. "You may encounter some danger later. Are you afraid?"
"Why would I be afraid? I'm very powerful now. Even you are no match for me when you're not piloting the Airframe." Sherry Dew raised her head proudly and held Xiao Ran's hand tightly. She used her actions to show that she would never leave.
Indeed, with Sherry Dew's current ability, even if she was alone, even if she was not piloting the Airframe, if she encountered a dangerous situation, Sherry Dew alone had the ability to completely wipe out at least one Team MS. Of course, this Team MS was only a C-grade Airframe. Perhaps some real elite C-grade Airframe pilots would pose a threat to Sherry Dew, but definitely not now.
Xiao Ran smiled and turned to Graham. "Let El Erf and the others go find Piet Tong. Tell them to be careful and not expose themselves. If Cruzet has the ability to enter the Federation, let him develop freely. It would be best if he can control some of the current powerful people in the Federation. Also, let Team W leave and go directly to Laguna after the cover is completed. We can take appropriate measures to make Laguna listen to us again."
"As for you …"
"Of course I'll follow Sir." Graham shrugged and smiled, then repeated Xiao Ran's words into the communicator again.
Xiao Ran did not object to Graham staying. Graham would have one more person to look after him, but now there was something that also needed Graham to deal with. Xiao Ran said, "Then stay. But now you have to take Sherry Dew to receive the Airframe first. There might be a battle later."
"Understood." Graham nodded. Xiao Ran patted Sherry Dew's hand again. "Go, Harrow will assist with the piloting. Just drive the Airframe over."
"Okay, be careful." Sherry Dew also knew that now was not the time to fool around. She nodded seriously and quickly left with Graham. It was not that they did not consider the safety of Xiao Ran alone here. With the participants' speed, even if they were like superhumans, it would be useless against MS. However, everyone in Xiao Ran's team brought something from the Gundam World that could defend against MS for a short period of time, so there should be no problem in the short term.
About 20 minutes ago, in the Celestial base, Miss Huang and Tiyelia rushed out of the room they were in at almost the same time. When the two of them bumped into each other, they said almost the same thing in unison.
"Quick, gather everyone and attack immediately! You must ensure Alex's safety! "
"Alex is in danger, we must act immediately!"
