Chapter 27: The Challenge of Socius (4)
-- United Nations of Orb.
That's a small island nation in the South Pacific. It is the holder of the colonial satellite HE1iopo1is, and although it is in a neutral position, it is also a country that helped the Earth jointly open five Mobi1esuits.
Here are the members of the mercenary force Serpent's Tail, centered on Cong Yun's impeachment.
They were commissioned to conduct experiments with the Mobi1esuit "M1Astray" that Orb had opened on the ground.
This body is a mass-produced machine of the Astray series that was made by the technology of the HE1iopo1is theft combination, that is to say, it is a mass-produced machine of the love machine Astrayb1ueframe of the impeachment.
Impeachment used B1Ueframe for a number of combat missions at an earlier stage. No one is better suited to carry out this M1Astray trial than him.
At the time of accepting the commission, impeachment presented conditions in lieu of monetary reward.
The conditions he put forward were also unacceptable to Astray's homeland of Orb.
That's the refurbishment of B1Ueframe.
Although the impeachment is very satisfied with the performance of the b1ueframe, it has also found a few points that need to be improved when using it. These are revisions that have improved the B1UEFRAME to be more suitable for impeachment.
From the time Orb took the commission, impeachment had not yet completed the joint task, and there were several problems that had to be resolved.
Impeachment of Pie Lolita's daughter Kazeka? Yazhe went to Orb as the pioneer of his group.
Although Fenghua is only a six-year-old girl, she has a sense of responsibility and executive power, and entrusts this girl with all matters related to the contract.
Fenghua who was entrusted with the impeachment of the renovation plan of the B1UEFRAME and the contract with Orb that he designed? Yazhe went to Orb alone to meet with Erica of the Dawning Society, which was opened by Astray? Symonds.
Fenghua did not make a single concession in the negotiation of the details of the terms of the agreement to let Erica? Simmonds was taken aback.
Erica has a child who is the same age as Kazeka, and her horrors are much worse than the others.
At the same time, Fenghua also made contact with the Archangel who was moored in Orb at the time and collected information. This is done at her own discretion.
By chance, as a friend of hers, the redframe scrap dealer who owned another Astray at the time was also anchored in Orb.
Acting with them made it possible to come into contact with the Archangel under repair.
When the impeachment of them came to Orb, everything was advancing without hindrance.
"Mission accomplished!!"
In the face of the impeachment that proudly reported to the impeachment, the impeachment only had a "understood" answer.
The other members of Serpenttail, Elijah and Li De, praised Fenghua "very much", but for Fenghua herself, no amount of praise and words could be more pleasing than reporting the completion of the task in front of impeachment.
As soon as impeachment entered Orb, the trial of M1Astray began. It was a test that was no different from a real battle. The repeated simulation battles collected data in various situations.
As a result, it turned out that there were almost no problems with the performance of the m1astray.
The OS is also optimized for use by natural persons with a fairly high degree of completion.
In fact, it was this OS that was most interesting to impeachment at the time of the trial. That's Kira by the Archangel number? Yamato to improve it.
Impeachment first heard Kira? The name Yamato was when he accepted the mission of guarding the cosmic fortress Artimis.
Teenage Kira driving a joint mobi1esuit? Yamato. Despite not having combat training and being a purely civilian, he repeatedly repelled the pursuits of the Kreuzer squad of the Zaft Army.
People who live in a world of combat as mercenaries have a keen sense of smell for such information. Impeachment is no exception. Kira? Yamato improved OS greatly satisfied the curiosity of impeachment.
Although figuring out that the body of the M1Astray has few problems, the quality of the driver who drives it has to be said to be quite low.
Everyone lacks real combat experience.
Impeachment created a special training menu for the drivers of M1Astray. Originally, it would have been better to impeach himself in charge of the special training meeting, but due to the new action from the joint assignment, he had to leave Orb immediately.
Leaving Orb and returning to the joint mission, Snaketail's party meets Luo of the waste merchant again.
"The two astrays are connected by fate?"
Elijay said with a joking tone.
Clearly, Elijah seems to be looking forward to meeting the waste merchant from time to time.
Impeachment is a realist who does not believe in such a thing as fate, but he also understands his own feelings about whether such repeated encounters are influenced by some kind of force.
In front of the same battlefield, the blue and red astrays assist each other in their missions.
Then the members of Snaketail, who had completed their mission safely, and the waste merchant returned to Orb again.
Immediately after that, a secret letter was sent to impeachment.
The name of the writer is e1even?socius. The content is a challenge to impeachment.
………………
The impeachment of them returned to Orb again when the relationship between the Union on the ground and Zaft was in a state of extreme tension.
It was only a matter of time before the Zaft Army began its Panamanian invasion.
However, the neutral nation of Orb was ostensibly peaceful, and it took a long time for them to be freed from the mission.
The members relaxed in the rooms of the hotel in Orb, as they wished. It is the most exclusive hotel in Orb, and needless to say, the decorations are luxurious, and they are also protected, and there is no potential danger such as eavesdropping. The preparation of such a place for their dwellings shows how highly Orb thought of their abilities.
"The mission on the ground ended without incident"
The first to speak was Li De.
"After that, there was nothing else on the ground except for the renovation of the B1UE that had been ordered to Orb. It will take two or three days to pack up, and it's almost time to return to the universe, right? ”
Li De looked around at all the staff.
Even if he stays on the ground like this, he doesn't worry about finding a job.
However, the activities of the ZAFT Army on the ground have become active, and if the opportunity is missed, the possibility of returning to the universe will be lost.
"Then it's time to return to the universe."
The first person to react to Lolita, who nodded in agreement, was Kazeka. The expression looked very dissatisfied.
When the wind flower came down to the earth, I wanted to see the origin of my name anyway, "the phenomenon of snow on a sunny day". But when you come down to the earth, you go to Panama, and then to Amazon, and then to Orb. Nowhere is it snowing.
"What do you think about impeachment?"
Elijay listened to the impeachment.
Impeachment is the leader of the snake's tail, and his opinion deserves the most respect among the members.
At that time, the impeachment, who was still silently listening to the words of the members, spoke quietly.
"The man named Socius...... I accepted his challenge. ”
That's not the answer to the question. A look of confusion appeared on the faces of all the members. Impeachment didn't mind going on.
"I wanted to take on the challenge. It's not work. I just went to fight alone. The whole does not need help. ”
"Why?"
Elijah asked straight about impeachment.
Mercenaries are experts in combat. Combat isn't for fun, it's not for fun, it's for work. Because of this, futile battles should be avoided as much as possible. Impeachment is indeed a man who can be said to be a model of mercenaries. In this way, he was challenged to fight, which would not have been unimaginable under normal circumstances.
"That opponent...... It's called Socius, right? Names that have not been heard of. ”
The leader tilted his head to the side. He is particularly adept at intelligence gathering among his members. For him, if he had a name he didn't know, he felt humiliated.
"The details are not clear...... But it seems to be a co-produced combat adjuster. ”
"United...... Combat Tuner !? ”
Elijah clenched his grip on the impeachment.
"I don't understand it more and more. Why fight someone like that? 'Mercenaries are not allowed to act without remuneration commensurate with the danger. That's what I learned from impeachment. It's so weird impeachment! ”
Elijah's words and the other members nodded wordlessly.
The correspondence of impeachment is obviously too outlandish. As if to cover up something.
"Socius wants to fight the strongest driver among the adjusters."
Impeachment is a mercenary. It is also necessary to sell one's high abilities in order to get a job with good conditions. Therefore, it is not inconceivable to mention the name of impeachment if you are looking for the strongest adjuster. But that can't be directly linked to the reason for fighting.
"Hey, calm down, Elijah."
Lolita convinces the impulsive Elijay. On Lolita's side, her daughter Fenghua stared at Elijay with a slightly frightened expression.
Receiving Lolita's words and the gaze of Kazeka, Elijay is ashamed of her correspondence. This kind of excitement is exactly what disqualifies people from being mercenaries. (Dear book friends, this book updates the latest and fastest chapters of this book on LVSEXS on the hot book library network.) It doesn't matter where you read my work, but when you see this sentence, please come and support me. I will be very grateful for a flower, a click on a collection, one at a time! Mercenaries must be calm no matter what.
"Impeachment is only hypothetical, but if you lose, it will bring shame on the name of the snaketail. That's going to be hard for us, too. ”
"I understand. I don't want to lose anyway. ”
Lolita looked motionlessly into Impeachment's eyes with a serious expression. It's as if I want to read something from there. Soon......
"Okay, I see."
Lolita's expression relaxed. Sure enough, she saw something in the depths of her orange sunglasses.
"You are very trustworthy in impeachment. Let me help impeach. ”
"This is my fight. Didn't need assistance......"
Lolita raised her hand to interrupt the words of impeachment.
"Don't do that. Just as you freely chose to fight, let me choose to help you. If you lose, it's over. In this sense, this battle is also our battle. ”
Lolita continued as she smiled like a mischievous child.
"That's right, our fight."
"Shall we help too?"
Li De leaned over with a surprised face.
"Of course."
"I don't want it."
Elijah seemed to have become very stubborn. He has such a childish place.
"That's right."
Lolita had no intention of keeping Elaejay. This made Elijah more anxious.
"Anyway, this is a battle that says 'Elijay is afraid of fighting' and makes me take the bait, right? Can I take the bait with that old bridge? ”
"I didn't say that, don't worry, Elijah."
"Okay, really don't help."
"Hmm. But aren't you satisfied with the impeachment action? As a mercenary, your own judgment is correct. Is that so? ”
"Yes."
"Then if you choose the wrong choice, what will happen to the impeachment, please find out. That will prove your right judgment the first time. ”
"Uh......"
"Is that so?"
"Hmm~~"
Lolita sees through that Elijay really wants to act with impeachment. If you want to call Elijaer for help in the future, it will be much easier to convince you.
"There's no way to go together...... But you can't meddle in the fight. ”
"Of course."
Lolita replied with a smile on her face.
Fenghua, who was holding her hand, smiled after understanding the conversation between the two.
Seeing this, Li De knew that this daughter learned all kinds of things from her mother. If you continue like this, what kind of conversation skills will you use to manipulate men at will when she grows up...... Li De had to worry about this.
"I see. I don't have the right to stop the people who are coming. ”
In the end, impeachment also agreed to the matter of everyone going together.
But in the end, the reasons for impeachment's decision to accept the challenge of Socius were not stated.
