Chapter 48: The Pseudo-Farewell War (5)

The next battle seems to have been artificially "fast-forwarded".

Perhaps there is also the reason why Roger's "demonstration teaching" has officially ended, and the body has been restored from the pseudo-RX-7 state to the Venerable Gundam, and the killing efficiency has increased exponentially - but there are also DGs who firmly believe that the most time-wasting just now is Roger's slow and logical explanations - Admiral Tashiro, who has been paying attention to the battlefield, has actually secretly noticed that since Roger's "full fire", the number of cosmic monsters, both the troop level and the landing boat class, has been drastically reduced.

In other words, it was the cosmic monsters that came from the ultra-long-distance battlefield where they didn't know where to reinforce the reason why the lower limit was set at the cruiser class from the beginning.

On the face of it, the reduction in the absolute number of enemies seems to be a good thing. But now each reinforcement of the Composite or Exelion-class is actually equivalent to the combat power of an entire human fleet......

Subconsciously raised his hand to arrange the military hat on his head, and Admiral Tashiro suddenly realized that it seemed that he had not issued a large-scale combat order to Exelion or the entire fleet in response to the battlefield situation for a long time. And usually in this case, at least the first mate or other staff members should remind him. Unfortunately, now it seems that he is not the only one in a state of shock and distraction.

However, after silently pondering for a few seconds, the old captain felt that he should still say something, "It seems that Lieutenant Colonel Roger's previous practice of hiding his strength is indeed far-sighted. ”

"Probably the LUXION fleet was also worn to death by cosmic monsters a little bit back then, and the battlefield data that was sporadically restored from the lifeboats back then, I'm afraid there was a considerable degree of lack of it." Even if Admiral Tashiro didn't name him, the first mate knew that he needed to take the initiative to speak up at this time. And Roger's lesson just now was really inspiring to him.

Although these two were under the strict control of information by the Samsara team, they deviated from the direction of the correct answer from the beginning.

But if you look at it from another angle, the analysis of these two is at least reasonable enough. So when DG fed this conversation back into the spirit link, no one would be stupid enough to jump out and laugh at the old guys. Roger and Jung began to be consumed more and more by the increasingly intense battle. Noriko Takaya's GUNBUSTER had already exceeded the scheduled ten-minute event period, but after that, she basically turned off the engine and made soy sauce, so at least she was able to return to Exelion safely.

THE HATCH OF HANGAR 7 OPENED AND CLOSED, AND GUNBUSTER'S SCIENTISTS RUSHED UP, SQUEEZING THE FEW MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL FAR BEHIND. These mad scientists basically don't know anything about warfare, and of course they didn't go out of their way to open a combat channel to be educated by a pure martial artist. FOR THEM, THE GUNBUSTER TOOK SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER THAN EXPECTED FOR THE FIRST BATTLE, AND IN ORDER TO AVOID PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRFRAME, IT WAS NECESSARY TO RE-EXAMINE IT FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM AND FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

So Noriko Takaya was alone when she boarded the plane, but when she came down, she was almost pushed off the ground from a height of more than 100 meters. Okay, it's just a close cry, and even if the plane heroine is really killed and vacated, DG is sure to directly stop the artificial gravity device in the relevant area and let Noriko land safely.

Fortunately, Noriko Takaya was still full of excitement and didn't notice these details at all. As soon as she almost stepped back onto the floor of the seventh hangar, she couldn't wait to open her mouth in the Spirit Channel.

"How long will it take for GUNBUSTER to reach the level of true strength that the coach is showing so far?"

The two combatants still didn't speak, and DG pretended not to be there, so only the elder sister answered the question with a frown. "If you measure it purely by the performance of the body itself and the weapon system it carries, it can be done at any time. But if you take it all together in terms of drivers and tactics, you'd better take a look at Jung's side first. ”

So, under the kind reminder of Kasumi Amano, and the small action of DG finally letting go of the information shield, Noriko Takaya finally noticed the seemingly inconspicuous corner of the entire battlefield at this moment.

It is not realistic to say that it is a small corner, because not only the brave king piloted by Jung, but also the Exelion fleet itself, which was guarded by the TOP troops that contracted on the orders of his sister, was actually all shrunk in this "small corner".

Originally, it was a sub-light speed battle, and now the size of the cosmic monsters around Roger is about ten kilometers, just by calculating the formation or the instantaneous speed change, you can calculate how much the entire battlefield has expanded. On the other hand, the largest spaceship in the Exelion fleet is nothing more than the flagship itself, even if the formation is loosely arranged, I am afraid it is still not enough for a short dive of the cruiser-class cosmic monster monomer opposite......

The enemy is never a fool, and even if most of the combat power had to be drawn to Roger, the strength of the "scattered" cosmic monsters left on Jung's side was far beyond the scope of the Exelion fleet itself. If it weren't for the "lower size limit" mentioned earlier, if there was another wave of ordinary soldiers or landing boats, it would be difficult for the brave king machine to protect everyone even if he had three heads and six arms.

The number of downs on the top three is enough to explain the problem, especially the smallest cruiser class here is about three kilometers at the moment, and the body piloted by Jung is only a hundred meters no matter how you look at it, although it is higher than Roger's Venerable Gundam, but the combat power is not proportional - not to mention anything else, whether it is a dragonfly cut or a real meteor butterfly sword, all of them are skills that are not applicable to the King of Bravery, not to mention other combat skills, Roger didn't teach much, even if he taught Jung, he might not learn it, right?

And don't forget, neither Jung nor Prisia came from home. She copied the three-stage combination of the Brave King at the instigation of DG, but she didn't get the huge golden hammer equipped with it at all - of course, if she really got it, even if DG did cover up the intelligence, it would be exposed within the visual range of the naked eye - it can be said that Jung's tactics are more suitable for Noriko Takaya to learn now......

These should have been things that should have been taken for granted, and the first heroine of the plane also began to notice this problem after her excitement had passed, and routinely further ashamed of her immaturity. "I'm sorry, sister, I'm a little carried away."

"It's not your responsibility." Amano's answer was concise and to the point, though all of the people she secretly ridiculed routinely ignored it.

Fortunately, my sister didn't really want to "ask for an explanation" or anything, and both she and Noriko Takaya actually knew very well that the savior of the Exelion fleet and even the entire earth was indeed the unreliable reincarnation team in front of her, no matter how you look at it. If it weren't for Roger and Jung, maybe the number of monsters in the universe in front of us would not be as large as it is now, and the strength would not be so strong, but the tragic process of "gambling on life in every decisive battle" in the so-called original plane book must be inevitable.

Not to mention anything else, whether it is the TOP troops in front of you, the Exelion fleet, or the almost abandoned flagship left, and the completely destroyed GUNBUSTER, that kind of nightmarish scene, no matter what, it is better not to happen?

So next, when Noriko Takaya was still in the stage of "complicated expression", Amano Kasumi, who knew that she couldn't waste time now, took the initiative to provoke the conversation. "Noriko, did you have any special feelings when you drove the GUNBUSTER just now?"

"Basically, just like in training, the coach and Jung gave me a lot of accurate and reliable tips. For me personally, the efficiency of the somatosensory operating system is significantly higher than that of the old system. But ......" answer from the plane heroine is basically an instinctive reaction, except for the last bit of hesitation.

"But what?"

"Maybe I'm still so stupid, but even if I'm driving a GUNBUSTER, I still don't have the ability to use more than two weapons systems at the same time."

My sister didn't continue to ask about it, but turned the conversation elsewhere. But in fact, both Amano Kasumi and Noriko Takaya know very well that the little problem just now is not entirely related to the personal qualities of the first heroine of the plane.

From the beginning of the design, GUNBUSTER arranged a two-person operation structure according to the original book, and although Noriko Takaya was able to use the body in actual combat alone, the operation was still not as smooth as the cooperation between the two. Even if the AI level on the GUNBUSTER is far higher than that of the RX series, and even surpasses the four generations according to the standard of space warships, the result is the same.

What is the reason why the reincarnation team must adhere to this defective body plan of "faithfulness to the original"? No matter what the two plane heroines think, they still don't quite understand. And if you think about it a little further, it would be easier to understand if this seemingly pointless preparation activity at this stage was merely the "brainchild" of Jung and DG. But Kasumi Amano clearly saw the shadow of his own intention to intervene in Roger's special lecture today......

"It seems that we won't be able to find out until after this battle is over, when we have a formal two-person training and even actual combat."

"Sister, are you saying that by that time, the coach has no way to answer us?"
