Chapter 149: Gundam Maintenance
Under the hot weather in Gibraltar, the training ground in the base was bustling with people at this time.
After all, everyone's curiosity was aroused after hearing the news that the red-clad elite team was going to challenge the director of Heilan Design Bureau.
"Why are they fighting?"
The green clothes watching on the side asked curiously.
The fight between gold-rimmed white clothes and red clothes is a strange sight that you can't usually see.
"I do not know."
"But I heard that someone started a gambling game."
"Director He's odds are 5, and the opponent's red shirt is 2."
Although He Kui was once active here as a pilot, there are still legends about He Kui killing everyone in and out of the Eurasian Federation.
But the opponent is the elite of the Kruse team, currently the pilot of one of ZAFT's highest performance aircrafts.
Compared with professional drivers, it is normal for He Kui to have higher odds.
Su Lei, who had also received the news, looked helplessly at the young man holding the cable and ascending to the cockpit in the field not far ahead.
She didn't know how the two started fighting.
Logically speaking, a normal red-coat wouldn't challenge the director of the design bureau to a duel, right?
The opposite is also true.
Su Lei didn't participate in these bets. They were all bought for ten or twenty yuan. It didn't matter whether she bought them or not.
Unaware of the entanglement of the girl in the stands, He Kui sat among the training coins.
As the earliest developed body.
The cockpit of this training Jinn, which has been in service for six years, is full of traces of use.
The console is covered with scratches, and the leather surface of the seats also has some wear and tear.
Along with the faint smell of sweat in the sealed cockpit, He Kui's thoughts seemed to go back to the military academy.
At that time, he must have never thought about having a battle with Diego.
But now he has the opportunity and the ability.
Just go down this road
"This is Earth, remember to turn up the thrust."
He Kui warned again.
He didn't want the partner he found to be a sparring partner to be defeated because he wasn't familiar with Earth's gravity.
"Don't worry, we already tried Earth's gravity when we came down."
"Director He, you attack first?"
The voice of communication Diego came out.
"good."
Without using Haro's assisted driving, He Kui controlled Jin En to turn on the propeller behind him. With the blue light, Jin En climbed up with an agility that did not belong to his heavy sense.
The huge mechanical arm simultaneously pulled out the training knife from the waist and swung it towards Diego's cockpit.
At this time, Diego reacted very quickly. He turned on the reverse thrust of the thrusters under his feet and distanced himself from He Kui. At the same time, he raised the machine gun in his hand.
What I'm good at is shooting.
Recalling Baofeng's behavior at the low-orbit station, He Kui had already thought about Diego's possible tactics.
However, He Kui, who did not have a shield, could only use his sword to block the cockpit.
The right arm holding the sword was hit by a machine gun paintball and was disabled.
It was during this gap that the machine gun on He Kui's left arm also fired at the opponent's leg.
Under the simulated recoil, Diego had no time to dodge.
He also chose to block the cockpit with his arms, but he didn't expect that He Kui's target was his legs.
Diego, who was used to space battles for a while, didn't react.
Suddenly the legs stained with paintballs were no longer usable.
The legs were judged to be invalid. Jin En, who was used for training, was unable to maintain balance standing on the ground with one leg.
Although there is fuel to adjust the posture, the fuel consumption of the propeller is very huge under gravity.
There was no other way. Diego, who wanted to distance himself and snipe with his marksmanship, could only draw his sword.
All the remaining energy is concentrated on the body's injectors.
This is not reckless. After all, He Kui's right arm and knife have been scrapped. With only a machine gun, he will be a trapped beast if he gets close.
But this also depends on He Kui's marksmanship and dynamic vision.
With Luna's skill bonus, He Kui is absolutely worthy of success in this regard.
His bullet accurately hit Diego's left hand blocking the front of the cockpit before he rushed over.
He Kui didn't stop after that. Taking advantage of the momentum of the opponent's charge, He Kui turned on the jet of air from the posture adjustment port, and narrowly avoided the frontal slash while turning sideways. At the same time, he grabbed Diego's wrist with his remaining hand.
After the leg jets were fully activated, they were quickly raised under gravity, and their hard knees stopped in front of the opponent's cockpit.
The outcome has been decided.
"Won!"
The soldiers who bought He Kui not far away were cheering.
Su Lei couldn't help but reveal a proud smile amidst such enthusiastic cheers.
"Director He. I didn't expect you to be so powerful."
After getting off the plane, Diego's face was very depressed.
After all, the fight I just had was really uncomfortable.
It seemed like every move of the opponent was trying to restrain him.
First, he lost his leg so he couldn't fly the kite.
Then in a hand-to-hand fight, he actually lost.
Although his performance in hand-to-hand combat is not as good as others, he is still at the elite level in red.
"lucky."
He Kui smiled.
Although the battle just now was also due to the fact that Diego was not good at ground combat.
But his close combat ability is indeed pretty good.
There were no obvious shortcomings, and the results of the test of strength were quite satisfactory to him.
If the current Xigu was controlling the Archangel, although he had no chance of winning, he would not be killed easily.
Of course, He Kui did not plan to go up.
"It doesn't look like a fluke."
Isaac looked at He Kui with a disappointed expression but a little curiosity.
It has been more than a year since He Kui graduated from the military academy. He did not expect that their senior had reached the level of Red Clothes while becoming the director.
"Haha, then make a promise"
"Director He, let's play another game!"
Can you wait for him to finish.
Looking at the excited Diego, He Kui's mouth twitched slightly.
"No."
"But forget the promise, I can help you prepare the machine."
"Really?"
The machine can catch up with the Archangel, and catching up with the Archangel can avenge the shame.
"Well, but before that, your OS also needs to be upgraded to cope with the situation in the desert."
"Quicksand?"
Diego was still confused, and Isaac quickly reacted.
"That's right."
"You should also experience the gravity of the earth on the training Jin En more these days."
"If you get used to it, I will be the loser this time."
He Kui didn't want to do anything to the Archangel, but just went with the flow, and he could also establish a good image in front of the two elites.
After arranging the next itinerary for the two.
As soon as He Kui walked out of the training ground, he was greeted with many military salutes, and of course, there was Su Lei's shining eyes in front of him.
He Kui knew that Su Lei was watching, after all, her favorability increased a little after winning just now.
"How is it? I won."
"Huh, just talk nonsense."
"But why did you go to the radar station so early?"
"To test."
"Is that so~"
Recently, the two of them have been together every day, and Su Lei has not returned to her room.
Naturally, she has a clear grasp of He Kui's dynamics.
After having a casual breakfast, the two soon returned to the radar station.
Today's test is to communicate with the receiver installed in the tower.
He Kui had just finished the practice. Without a doubt, they were connected to the Tiger Mansion in Tashu very smoothly.
But surprisingly, not only the radar operator, but also Tiger who had just returned from the battlefield was in the radar room of the mansion.
"Director He, how are you?"
Tiger's attitude was a little more enthusiastic than the last time he came to the desert.
"Captain Andrew, I troubled you last time."
"No trouble, how is Ed now?"
"I temporarily went to the military academy in December City as an assistant instructor of ground warfare."
After all, it was because of him that it became like this. ZAFT was not stingy in compensation and found Ed a safe iron rice bowl.
"Really? That's good."
After the two chatted for a few words like old friends, Andrew continued.
"But we also saw a lot of Director He's tools on the battlefield."
Seeing that Andrew finally got to the point, He Kui's face also became serious.
"It should be a replica, right? Or maybe it was smuggled in."
"That's right, but I just want to ask Director He if he can counter-invade the other party's tools."
"This is a bit difficult. After all, there are neutron jammers everywhere on the earth, and it's not easy to use them, but I'll try my best to take a look."
"Then it's troublesome."
After the two finished talking, the communication was combined.
Then they just had to wait for two days.
If there are no accidents, they just have to wait for them to go out to repair the tower and purchase, and he can take back Haro in the chaos.
