Chapter 157 Results, Order Change (Update 2/2)
Chapter 157 Results, Change of Order (Additional Update 22)
In two days, Arthur and Graham have conducted no less than ten training battles. Graham is still not serious, but Arthur's progress is still very good.
After the last training station, the Gundam AGE-2 still looks tattered, but compared to the missing arms and legs at the beginning, at least the body parts are still there.
It's just that the armor is broken everywhere, and the arc has been wrapped around the tattered body. Even a simple action like raising a hand seems extremely stiff.
"That's it, return home!"
"Understood." X2
The two machines returned and once again faced the eyes of many "knife men" and came to the second command room. After two days of baptism, coupled with the experience taught by Graham, Arthur was not as scared as at the beginning.
"Understand, what's the result?" Arthur asked. After each actual combat training, Arthur would ask about his performance as soon as possible.
Yang Hui nodded and looked at the recorder on the side: "Call up the data."
"Yes!"
The data and the fluctuation curve of the two days appeared. Arthur was very happy to see the latest data.
Although the data was not as good as the first time, and the fluctuation curve even fell to the bottom again from the second time, but from the second time, every battle was improving, and the fluctuation curve was steadily rising.
This is the normal situation. In the first battle, Arthur relied entirely on instinct to control the Gundam AGE-2. This instinctive burst is not normal, and it is a state that cannot be sought. When people calm down, they will naturally fall back to their original state.
But none of this is important. What is important is that Arthur can grow in every training. Although there is no leapfrog increase, climbing to the peak with feet on the ground is the most stable and the most realistic situation.
"The time this time."
"14 minutes and 25 seconds."
"Well, not bad, another 15 seconds improvement."
"Good!" Arthur excitedly clenched his fist and waved. Every improvement made him excited.
"But don't be too complacent. Graham hasn't even used half of his strength. You still have a lot to learn." Yang Hui said. Growth in strength is a good thing, but the improvement of character must keep up. He doesn't want Arthur to become proud and complacent because of this.
"Yes!"
"Okay, go and rest. You and Woruf should report back to the Songstress."
"Eh?" Arthur was still immersed in the joy of growth. If he missed such a good opportunity, he didn't know when it would come again. He naturally didn't want it to end like this. "Uncle Yang Hui, I'm still okay. I feel I still have room for growth. Please! Uncle Graham, please!"
"Of course you still have room for growth, but there is no time for you to train anymore." Yang Hui said.
"What do you mean?"
"According to the analysis of the Intelligence Department, VEGAN's army will arrive at the universe where the [Giant Ring] base is located within two days. You won't forget why we stayed at the [Giant Ring] base, right?"
"Eh? Is that so... I see..." Arthur was very sorry, but there was nothing he could do. VEGAN's attack was imminent, and the war would not stop because of his expectations alone.
"After you go back, don't look at the records anymore. Take a good rest and make sure you are back to your best condition before the battle begins."
"Yes."
"Go."
After Arthur left, Yang Hui connected to Fleet's communication.
"Yang Hui, how is the situation?"
"It's over, and the effect is not bad." Yang Hui nodded to the recorder and sent Arthur's data and records of the past two days to Fleet.
Fleet took a general look and was also very satisfied, but his face was still not very good.
"Although we have achieved good results,... it's still too messy." Fleet said unhappily.
At first, he disagreed with Yang Hui's plan, but he couldn't refute the reasons given by Yang Hui. He also hoped to see Asem grow up, not for him to become the top of the Federation Army like himself, but only for him to survive better in battles in different environments.
Although he agreed in the end, it didn't mean that Fleet had no opinion on it.
The war was about to start, whether it was Graham and the Flag Gundam, or Asem and the Gundam AGE-2, they were all irreplaceable combat forces. If there was any problem, Fleet would not accept it, whether it was for the war or for personal feelings.
"Don't worry, don't you still trust Graham's strength?" Yang Hui waved his hand indifferently.
"But... forget it, you won't listen anyway, come to my office, I have a new task for you."
"Yes."
After hanging up the call, Yang Hui, Graham and Yulin smiled at each other. Although they were used to Fleet's helpless expression towards them, they still found it very interesting every time they saw it.
As for the other people in the command room... they lowered their heads obediently, not daring to breathe. Yang Hui and Fleet had not avoided them at all in their conversation just now, as if they knew something very serious. They couldn't afford to offend either Yang Hui or Fleet, so it was better to pretend that they knew nothing.
Yang Hui instructed the others to sort out the data and information and return to their original positions, and then he went to Fleet's office with Graham and Yulin.
"You are here."
"Well, what intelligence is so important that we need to come here in person?" There was no one else in the office, and Yang Hui's attitude seemed more casual.
"You guys take a look."
Taking the document from Fleet, Yang Hui flipped through it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"You guys take a look too."
The document was passed to Graham and Yulin. Graham showed the same expression as Yang Hui. Yulin still kept a calm smile, but a cautious light flashed in her eyes.
"Do you know the specific number?" Yang Hui took the document handed over by Yulin and returned it to Fleet.
"It's impossible to be sure, but it's certain that it's more than double digits. VEGAN's research on X-Rounder is far superior to the Federation."
"It doesn't matter. That kind of degraded power is really not worth praising."
It's not that Yang Hui looks down on X-Rounder's ability. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. Compared with NT, Transformer, Gene Adjustment, and even telekinesis, X-Rounder's ability is really unbearable.
Take the most similar NT for comparison. NT has everything that X-Rounder has, but X-Rounder basically has none of what NT has.
The instinct of fighting is originally possessed by all humans, but it is suppressed because humans have rationality that beasts do not have. Through training and experience, it can be fully developed, and there is no need to awaken the X field.
Of course, this is the result of comparing with ordinary X-Rounder ability users. For high-level X-Rounder ability users like Fleet, Yulin, and Gerhard, it is difficult to reach their level no matter how much training and fighting.
"But we need this power now, Yang Hui, you know..."
"Yes, I know, need is not necessity, I believe you have made arrangements, so..."
As he said, Yang Hui, Graham and Yulin all stood up, straightened their bodies and saluted Fleet.
"... Please give the order, Commander-in-Chief Asuno."
"Change of order, Lieutenant General Yang Hui, Major General Graham, Colonel Yulin, if you find VEGAN's X-Rounder troops in the battle, stop and destroy them as soon as possible."
"Yes!" X3
The three put their hands down, and the atmosphere returned to relaxation.
What do you do according to your identity? With the relationship between Yang Hui and Fleet, they can certainly be more casual, but when it is necessary to be serious, Yang Hui and the other two will also put away their casual attitude, and the balance is well grasped.
...
On the other side, five Fa·Boser set off from the Downs Fortress and headed towards the [Giant Ring] base. One of them was painted red like a target.
This is Gerhardt's flagship and the flagship of the fleet.
"It's a bit difficult to understand." Gerhardt looked at Izelkanda's order again and shook his head.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem with Lord Izelkanda's order?" Medel Sant asked with a frown.
Originally, he was Jehart's superior, and he also had rich experience. He always felt that something had changed in Jehart, and he always had an inexplicable feeling that Jehart was hiding something, not only from him, but also from Izelkanda.
"Well... I was thinking, since our combat goal is to annihilate the Federation Army Headquarters in one fell swoop, the [Giant Ring] base is the headquarters of the Federation Army and the only barrier between us and the Earth. As long as the [Giant Ring] base is breached, the Earth will be completely exposed to us, but why... Why did Lord Izelkanda order the Downs Fortress to stay in the rear? Instead of sending out the entire army to take down the [Giant Ring] base in one go?"
Jerhart had no other thoughts at this time, he just felt that Izelkanda's order was not only unhelpful to the battle situation, but also hindered it, just like... he had no intention of succeeding from the beginning.
"Lord Izelkanda should have his own ideas."
To be honest, Medel Sant was also very confused about Izelkanda's orders, but his habit made him obey. The older generation of them had survived the most difficult times and admired Izelkanda the most. Without him, there would be no VEGAN today, and there would be no ambition to return to Earth. They could only wait to die on Mars with hatred.
"That's because of us, so there is no need for the Downs Fortress."
At this time, a group of young men and women in special uniforms came to the bridge in groups, and there was no respect for Gerhardt in their conversation.
"Glenn, you are so rude! How do you talk to the commander-in-chief!?" Medel Sant immediately scolded.
"Deputy Commander Medel, I didn't recognize him as my commander, right?" Medel's scolding had no deterrent effect on Glenn Ritz, how arrogant he was.
"Of course, as a MS pilot he is really good, but as a commander...tsk tsk."
"I don't know what Lord Izelkanda was thinking, letting a little brat be the commander-in-chief."
"That's right, it's better to let me do it."
...
Seeing a group of young people being unruly in front of him, and even questioning Izelkanda's orders, he was furious and wanted to scold them severely.
But when he was about to explode, Gerhard stretched out his hand to stop Medel Sant.
