Volume II: The Beginning, 177, explores the future
Volume 2 begins with 177 a look at the future
"What...... It says it's a journey, but isn't it actually for Artoria to experiment with the actual performance of MS? But has Kiki figured it out? How did you get MS out there? You know, once the Earth Union learns the information of MS, then it is very likely that they will also develop it; Don't forget, in the original book, these Gundams were jointly developed by the Earth......"
Lux took a sip of the milk tea I was holding, and a pleasant expression appeared on her delicate face, but then the barrage of inquiries made me feel a little dizzy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Ahem, ahem...... Wait, I'll think about it for my husband......"
Actually, there's nothing to think about, because I've already made a rough plan, I just need to let Alice or Artoria perfect it, after all, the actual driver of the MS is Artoria or C.C., and I, because the height is not up to the standard (more than 1.5 meters), so I can't drive the MS at all, after all, the MS is different from a car, and the difficulty and complexity of driving the MS are much more difficult than a car.
"Judging from Fujun's plan, we will use a dragon-class light cruiser to go to L3 Grand, and then sign up to become a mercenary in the dark force of L3 Grand, that is, the Mercenary Guild; After that, it is natural to choose some tasks that can test the actual performance of the MS to complete, as long as the actual performance of the MS is tested, then the Amalfi family can be put into mass production, and then it can be secretly handed over to the circus, and the circus can send military personnel to conduct actual combat training......"
"At the moment, it seems that the first GINN is expected to build a test machine around May '65, and we should be able to travel around the universe by then, right? By the way, take a look at the scenery and the like...... Although it may be that in terms of the actual mission of the mercenary, there will be no place with any scenery or anything like that. ”
I had a calm smile on my handsome face, but what I said made Lux frown in confusion.
"Why did you wait until around May '65 to build the first physical machine? Isn't Kiki already completely finished with the design drawings? ”
This is the most confusing ground for Lux, since the alloy formula and preparation materials have been completed, why does it take four years to build a physical machine?
Hearing this, my originally calm smile couldn't help but become bitter, and then I said with some dejection: "Although the alloy formula has indeed been studied, it is difficult to build an MS in terms of the materials that the zodiac has now; Because the materials possessed by the zodiac are missing a rather critical refining material, eh...... This material should be bought from Mars; Of course, this material is not only found on Mars, in fact, in meteorites in the universe, there are also such refining materials; But the problem is that there are no meteorites near our ecliptic. ”
In addition to smiling bitterly, I can only smile bitterly, after all, the zodiac is a colony, and there can be no meteorite group nearby, otherwise with the speed of the meteorite group, and the zodiac itself does not have the ability to attack, once the meteorite group is smashed over, then the zodiac will not give a tragedy? So let's think about where to get this refining material.
Of course, Fu Jun also referred to the meteorite group near the earth's sphere, whether there is a suitable object for collecting this resource; Among them, Fujun found a large amount of this type of refining material on the moon, uh, a lot of it...... But the problem is that it is impossible for us to establish a secret collection base on the moon, so we have to give up this piece of material; The reserves are second to the moon, that is, the L3 Gran point, but this material point is also very problematic, because there is the 'Altimis' military fortress of the Eurasian Federation, and the resource colonization satellite 'Heliopolis' of the United Nations of the Ob Chieftain, so it is even more impossible to collect it quietly. ”
"So the husband looked at the L4 Grand point, which is second to the L3 Grand point, and there are many meteorite groups at the L4 Grand point, although only a small number of meteorite groups contain the refining materials needed to build MS, but the L4 Grand Point itself does not have a political force; There are only scattered mercenary groups, research institutes and other forces, if we want to obtain this refining material, then the L4 Grand Point is the most suitable, but compared to the distance, the L4 Grand Point is much farther than the L3 Grand Point, the Moon and the Plant, so once the route is cut off, then ......"
Lux knows what the unfinished meaning of my words means, and indeed, if this critical and scarce material transportation line is cut off, then I am afraid that I will not be able to build MS......
"But Kiki, that must be after the war, and then we can't attack the moon, and it's not that we can't attack the L3 Grand point...... However, compared to the Moon, the military fortress of Artemis at L3 Grand Point is much harder......"
Lux didn't pay much attention to my distress, and I couldn't help but be surprised when she smiled and said what she thought; yes, I'd like to do it, even if the Earth Union wants to block the transportation line, it will not require a lot of personnel, and it will definitely be after the war at that time, so we don't need to worry about it now.
Thinking about this, I immediately laughed, and then said: "Then we can arrange for the circus organization to collect this material, and then secretly transport it back to the plant, and strive to accumulate some more of this key material before the war......"
Lux's words made me feel like I was sudden, after all, in the absence of a formal declaration of war, the Earth Union would not blatantly block the transportation line from L4 to L5 Grand, so we don't have to worry about it at all...... At least between '68 and '70, you shouldn't have to worry too much.
And the amount of materials accumulated in the past five years should be enough for us to use for a while...... At that time, although there is no guarantee that the moon will be captured, it should be able to occupy part of the base of the earth united on the moon, and the collection of resources will be much more convenient at that time, and the transportation will be more convenient because of the shortened distance.
"As for the design drawings of the MS to be known to the Earth Union, this in itself is what the husband is about to do...... But even if the husband doesn't do it, Lou Lou Kreuzer, the world-weary little fellow, will do it; But I think he should also know how to hand over the disc to Earth Union after the war, right? In addition, we also need the technical data contained in the Strike Gundam ......"
I smiled faintly, I originally had a plan to let the Earth Union continue to make Strike Gundams and other things, although Plant is not without military technology comparable to the Earth, but to be honest, Plant is still too little, so if you want to beat the Earth in the military competition, in addition to the possibility of success because of the epoch-making existence of MS, other military competitions ...... For example, military technology and the like are not necessarily comparable to the Atlantic Federation, an old power in the global sphere, after all, it has the United States as its predecessor.
