Chapter Forty-Four: Ro-Joul
The carefree strolling around the town made Xiao Ran completely relaxed, without the caution in front of the Archangel everyone, he was afraid that he would say something that should not be said as soon as he opened his mouth, and there was no threat of chasing soldiers and opportunities in the process for the time being, so he didn't have to think about what to do and what not to do, so that his mood and spirit were completely relaxed.
This relaxation, when Xiao Ran saw this person who didn't seem to be here, and it was a person he knew well, he was so surprised that he called out the other party's name without even moving his head, and after he called the other party's name, he suddenly reacted that his move was a little abrupt.
Ro Joul, one of the protagonists of the Gundam Seed Gaiden, in the plot of the world of Seed, whether it is a true biography, he is indispensable, the Desert Tiger Andrew Bartfield was saved by him after Kira's body was broken, and Kira was also saved by him after the battle with Aslan was broken by the Holy Shield self-explosion, and it can be said that without him, there would be no lives for those two.
When he was in Heliopolis, Xiao Ran once had the idea of two heretical Gundams were also obtained by him, one of which was given to the legendary mercenary Cong Yun, who had the title of the strongest adjuster, and the red machine left behind was used as a landline and underwent many transformations, although the red machine was much worse than the Strike Gundam and other bodies in nature, but after being transformed and increased by Luo Jull many times, at least it has the performance and firepower of the Freedom Gundam, not to mention a series of enhancements later.
Luo Jull is unlucky, this is Xiao Ran's opinion of him, but Xiao Ran also has to say that he is also very powerful in addition to luck, at least the strongest mechanic known in the SEED world, no one can match his hobby and talent for machinery, as an ordinary person, he can not only drive MS to fight, but also participate in modification, develop all kinds of MS weapons, and bodies, which is more like an adjuster than many adjusters.
However, Luo Jull is optimistic by nature, and he can see this problem by looking at his face full of joy, and after hearing Xiao Ran call his name, he looked left and right and finally stretched out his hand to himself, his face full of confusion and doubt: "You know me?" ”
Xiao Ran laughed awkwardly, although he felt that he was a little abrupt, but since he had already taken the words, he naturally would not let go of this opportunity lightly, after all, it was absolutely rare to be able to take another plot that could be said to be the same main line.
"You're from the Waste Traders' Union, I know you, I've seen you but you probably didn't notice me." Xiao Ran's mind spun quickly, and once again he recovered to the state of opening his mouth on the Archangel, deliberately narrowing the distance between the two: "I have a friend who also worked as a waste merchant before, and when I saw you that time, my friend told me, saying that you are a lucky boy, and every time you come to pick up something they can't pick up, now I think of his jealous expression, I feel a little funny." ”
After listening to Xiao Ran's words, Luo Juer, who was innocent by nature, didn't suspect anything, just touched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, I really don't know when I became so famous, anyone who finds a place to buy something to eat will know me." ”
Xiao Ran just wanted to say something, but his stomach gurgled, which made him a little embarrassed all of a sudden, but Luo was quite enthusiastic, and he didn't laugh or anything after hearing the sound of Xiao Ran's stomach, he walked directly forward and bought two servings of food, and handed one of them to Xiao Ran: "Here you go, it seems that you haven't eaten for a long time." ”
"Thank you." Xiao Ran was a little embarrassed to take the food and take a bite directly, the hot and refreshing feeling made Xiao Ran also show a satisfied expression: "I'm really embarrassed, it's been a long time since I left Heliopolis, I haven't used money on the ship for a long time, and I didn't think about this problem at all when I came out, thanks to meeting you, otherwise I really don't know what to do." ”
Luo kept chewing the food, and when he heard what Xiao Ran said, he was a little surprised and asked in a vague voice, "Are you from Heliopolis?" How did you end up here? Wait, you haven't been on that ship all along, have you? Are you an Earth Army? ”
"You know the Archangel number?" Xiao Ran pretended to be surprised and glanced at Luo Jull, and then said in a very helpless tone: "My students and I couldn't board that ship in Heliopolis due to some circumstances, and we were chased here by Zaft from Heliopolis, although we finally became the crew of the Archangel, hey, it's a long story one after another, and there is no choice at all." ”
"Archangel, of course I know." Luo Jull finished the food in his hand in a few bites, and looked at Xiao Ran expectantly: "That ship that leaves a pile of waste wherever it goes, of course I know, I happened to be nearby when you landed, and I was going to wait for the battle to end to recover something, but I didn't expect the Earth Army to surrender." I don't have anything to collect, but I think it's nice not to have to fight. Later, we also encountered a little accident and landed, I really didn't expect it to land in a place, didn't you also have ms on that ship, but now it's famous, can you tell me about it? ”
"Are you interested in MS?" Xiao Ran asked deliberately.
Luo Jull held his head and said with his eyes wandering: "It's not that I pull, it's just that I happen to have an MS too, and I want to see what the difference between the two MS is, if I can't say it, I haven't asked." ”
"Huh." Xiao Ran shook his head and smiled, holding back the wormhole that wanted to hand over the information in his hand to Luo Jull, and waved his hand gently: "It's okay, for some special reasons, I am now a major officer of the Archangel, and I can let you go and see that body by yourself, how about it, are you interested?" ”
Luo's eyes lit up suddenly: "Really? ”
"Really." Xiao Ran nodded affirmatively, and suddenly said, "But my stomach is still very hungry now, if you can buy me another piece of food, it would be better." ”
Luo Jull's eyes lit up and jumped: "No problem, you wait!" ”
On the way, Luo Joul, who was originally a little excited, became a little worried, looked at Xiao Ran, who was driving, and asked, "That should belong to the secret of the Earth Army, is it okay to let me see it like this?" ”
"That thing isn't a secret now." Xiao Ran shook his head and said deliberately: "In my opinion, the body parameters of that thing are not only owned by Zaft, I'm afraid there are also a lot of them on the Orb side, there is no reason for Orb to develop other people's bodies on his own territory but not to develop his own body, I believe that Orb must have stolen a lot of development materials of the Earth Army, and even before the collapse of Heliopolis, a complete body had been created." ”
Luo Jull looked at Xiao Ran in a daze, only to hear Xiao Ran continue: "In my opinion, the current Archangel is almost a target for the Earth Army to attract Zaft's firepower, and they don't care what happens to the Archangel in the end. ”
"If it weren't for the fact that I didn't worry about my students, there would still ...... Hehe, I'm sorry I said too much. Xiao Ran smiled embarrassedly at Luo Jull and said: "The main thing is that I told those people in the Archangel that they don't believe any of them, after all, I am a temporary major, and I can't understand their feelings for the army, so some can't help but want to complain, don't worry, I think it can give you zero contact with the Gundam, and even the piloting doesn't matter, one of my students is the pilot of the Gundam." ”
"Gundam? Students, pilots? Luo Jull was a little stunned and asked, "Can you tell me about your experience along the way, I think it seems very unusual." ”
"Of course." Xiao Ran nodded, and then slowly told his experience from the beginning when he opened his eyes in Heliopolis until he met Ro Joul, the shock in the academy, the bald man in Heliopolis, boarding the Archangel, going to Julius 7 to replenish resources, and the battle with Zaft and other events were narrated one by one, especially about the speculation about the enhancers, that is, the things of the participants, and also emphasized a few words, and pointed out that the surrender of the Eighth Fleet was completely due to the rebellion of the enhancers in the flagship.
Ro Joll listened quietly, and from time to time he would sigh in surprise, then sigh and helplessness, and feel sorry for Kira when he heard that Kira had no choice to fight for their friends and teachers on the ship. When he heard that Xiao Ran also chose to drive the captured MS to attack for them, he also sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
When the words were almost finished, Xiao Ran drove the car and stopped in front of the Archangel.
"Is this the Archangel number...... It's really huge. Luo stood on the car and grabbed the windshield in front of him, looking at the huge battleship in front of him in admiration.
"Isn't that knife you made bigger?" Xiao Ran heard Luo's admiration, and rolled his eyes speechlessly, and at this moment, a messy footstep suddenly sounded beside the two.
"Stop, don't move!"
