Chapter 1: Who I Am

    Su Yue slowly opened his eyes, what he saw in front of him was like an old television picture blurred, and from time to time there would be snowflakes.

    It's really similar, even the harsh high frequency sound rings in your ears.

    After a few more minutes, the image began to settle, surrounded by a shimmering light. But why is it so dark? Is this that?

    Feelings are starting to come from the body as well... This is a hand! This is a foot! What's wrapped tightly around me? It's squeezing me so hard I can't breathe. Let go of me!

    The unfamiliar environment and feeling of everything forced Su Yue to go crazy, he could only force himself to take deep breaths one by one and try to calm down.

    Ding!

    The system reboots.

    What was it, and why was there a strange electronic sound echoing in his head, a sound that surrounded him from all directions, like it had been triggered out of nowhere in the very center of his mind.

    Su Yue's inner shouts did not affect the continuation of the electronic voice.

    The cold, emotionless electronic voice continued to echo: random character generation began.

    Who are you? Su Yue roared.

    Seeing no reply, Su Yue suddenly thought, why don't we try to use brainwave communication: who are you? Where am I?

    Ding! Generation complete.

    Character's name: Su Yue.

    Year of birth: u.c. 0061.

    Attachment: Provisional 1st Commando Brigade under the 1st Combined Fleet of the Gion Army.

    Rank: Sergeant.

    uc?, the cosmic epoch in the Gundam world?

    Is. , the electronic voice suddenly had a response, which in turn scared Su Yue who was talking to himself.

    Who are you?

    System.

    What system?

    Insufficient data to answer.

    I'll call you the system then.

    You can.

    System, what is this place?

    side 5 Rum airspace.

    Lum! It can't be uc0079 now?

    Yes, the data says it's January 14, uc0079, 13:40 hours.

    x! It's really what you fear.

    Why Su Yue reacted so much? uc0079, the first year of the Gundam Century disaster. Gundam Century (uc) actually refers to the beginning of the cosmic migration, the official beauty of the name is to open up the universe. The truth is that the home planet Earth can no longer withstand the torment of mankind, population explosion, depletion of natural resources, economic depression, social conflict and other problems abound. Therefore, at the end of the Gregorian calendar, some people put forward the idea of cosmic colonization, building a large number of colonial satellites in the universe, and forcibly immigrating part of the human race to live in the satellites.

    Large cosmic colonial satellites were established in the universe (between the Earth and the Moon), with 30-40 satellites forming a sid. the Earth federal government set up 7 sid in the universe until the uc0079s, when the population of the cosmic satellites had reached 9 billion.

    side 3 gion for various reasons embarked on the road to independence, and because of its heavy industrial satellites of the huge heritage, its military power quickly expanded to enough to shake to the earth federal army in the universe of the dominant position. uc0079 January 3 gion principality formally declared war on the earth federal army, gion army swept through the universe of the colonial satellite group, a week of war side 1, 2, 4 fell, side 6 declared neutral, the entire space is left only side 5 lum. Only side 5 Lum was left in the whole space. This is also the biggest nail in the coffin of the Earth Federation Army in the universe.

    On January 11th, UC0079, all human eyes are focused on side 5 Rum, the Gion Principality has sent the First Combined Fleet to Rum. On the other side, the Earth Federation Army was intercepted by the First, Second and Third Fleets led by Lieutenant General Ray Bill. The battle between the two sides is about to start.

    Su Yue, who was in this horrible battlefield, helplessly realized that he was afraid that his life would not last long.

    Su Yue exhaled a long breath of turbid air, one must always continue to look forward and asked, Why did I come here?

    Insufficient data to answer.

    ......

    Character loading is not yet complete, please cooperate with the host.

    I know. Su Yue helplessly said, are about to kill people, you still have any tricks to play?

    Randomly generated character abilities...

    Character level: 1 (0/100).

    Driver's faceplate:

    Shooting: 10/99

    Fighting: 10/99

    Reaction: 20/99

    Awakening: 1/99

    Commander's faceplate: not open

    Other faceplates: not open

    Remaining ability points: 10

    Oh! Datamined characters! There are levels! There are assigned points! This was clearly a real-life version of the Gundam Wars game! As soon as Su Yue saw the system's virtual digital image in front of his eyes, he immediately screamed and jumped wildly in excitement, as if he had caught the only straw that saved his life.

    System, explain to me what these ability values represent?

    Shooting: affects the hit rate of various shooting arms;

    Fighting: affects the hit points of various fighting arms;

    Reaction: affects evasion rate during combat;

    Awakening: affects the hit and attack bonuses of NT weapons, as well as shooting, fighting and evasive reaction bonuses, and special abilities yet to be unblocked.

    Generally abilities start at 10, with a one-in-a-million chance of a random single ability multiplication.

    But why is the awakening value 1?

    General ability does not include awakening, awakening value of 0 and 1 reflect whether or not awakening, the general chance of human awakening is 1 in 100 million.

    What are the special abilities of Awakening?

    Must be explored by the host.

    .... , Awakening is a lofty and perverse ability in the original Gundam Universe Century, the most common manifestation of which is enhanced reactions, and we're not talking about normal reactions, we're talking about the kind of unspeakable -1 or -2 second reactions. Awakening in turn enhances Cosmic Space Adaptability, and then up there is the open-ended Sixth Sense, Telepathy, Psychic Communication, and so on.

    However, only 1 awakening value, what can you expect from it, Su Yue said that it is better not to be crooked, think about how to save your life really point.

    How can I level up my character?

    Complete the tasks issued by the system.

    What about ability points?

    Characters upgrade or complete quests issued by a specific system. Characters gain 1 ability point for each level up.

    One point... I don't know if I'll be able to get the upgrade...

    Randomly loading character skills ....

    System, can you do it all at once? One at a time, it will scare people to death! Su Yue couldn't help but spit it out.

    Character Skills:

    New Human (lv1): +5 Awakening Value;

    Cosmic Warfare Adaptability (lv1): +5% to-hit rate and evasion rate when fighting in the cosmos

    Ding! Awakening value reaches 5, unlocking the skill Sixth Sense.

    Sixth Sense (lv1): There is a slight chance that it will be triggered during battle, and it can foresee and sense in advance.

    System, how do I improve my skills?

    Each boost requires 10 ability points, up to lv5.

    Su Yue thought to himself: the initial ability points were only 10 points, to safely get through this Lum Battle one must use the points in the most efficient way.

    System, how much does lv2 Cosmic Warfare Adaptability increase hit rate and evasion rate?

    Must be explored by the host.

    ....

    I am almost two feet a stretch, you are still exploring on his female horse x s own Su Yue has always been conscious of his temper and emotional intelligence, but at this moment, he really can not help but greet the mother of the system, the life of the child is going to be lost, and it is surprising that he is still pulling back.

    Hosts please take care of themselves, the system has multiple restrictions, hosts cannot get the next stage of data without reaching the conditions.

    However, the host is reminded that this is not a game world, and data does not mean everything.

    What happens if I die?

    To be explored by the host. Explore on your own ....... Do I have to die once to test it ....

    As angry as he is, as helpless as he is, the road must go on. Su Yue forced himself to calm down, since the data does not mean everything, this message is very critical, because it indicates that any attempt to calculate may be futile, all the multipliers and skills have the opportunity to be reduced to nothing because of my own incompetence.

    System, can I hold off on adding points?

    This is the initial setup phase, and any remaining ability points will be considered forfeited and not retained.

    Damn, not even a test time.

    Then help me boost my level 1 Cosmic Warfare Adaptability.

    Copy that. Deduct 10 ability points. Do you acknowledge?

    Acknowledgment.

    Cosmic Warfare Adaptability Upgrade Successful. Cosmic Warfare Adaptability Upgrade (lv2): +10% to-hit rate and evasion rate when fighting in the universe, why Cosmic Warfare Adaptability? Because Su Yue had never been to the cosmic space, starting from the Battle of Rum, the next battles would be in the cosmos as the main battleground, and this intangible adaptability could be the key to saving his life.

    Character setup complete.

    Ah! , the system voice just graduated, Su Yue suddenly black in front of his eyes, a large number of things all at once into the head, the body, hands and feet, the whole body is sore and numb, as if some electric current in the body cycle around and around.

    Such a state was maintained for an unknown period of time, it could be an hour, or it could be a minute. Until the call of the intercom came from in front of him, Su Yue came back to his senses again.

    Su-yue, answer me! You die there? The rough voice of the middle-aged man coming from the other end of the walkie-talkie.

    Report captain, in! , Su Yue hurriedly responded.

    I ordered you to stand by in place, did you run off and desert again.

    Haha, there is no next time. Su Yue naturally and playfully responded. This all stems from the head more than a few things obviously some of their own did not experience, but also like a personal experience.

    Just as he knew the intercom into the face was now his top man, the leader of the second squadron under the jurisdiction of the second squadron, Robson de Sousa, a middle-aged, abusive good-for-nothing with a strangely loud voice.

    Received an order to strike and moved out in 15 minutes to destroy the Confederate reconnaissance aircraft in the vicinity of Chicago on Rum 8 (as the colonial satellite is called).

    Copy that.

    Is it to blind the Confederates? Su Yue thought to himself. The battle is getting closer and closer, but we haven't received any battle instructions from above, is it because we haven't made a decision yet? Or are they considering something? Will the outcome of the battle be the same as what I know?

    Task generation successful, task: rookie

    Mission Objective: Pilot a Mobile Suit (ms) to strike and destroy 3 Federal Bundeswehr Scout planes.

    Quest Reward: +1 Ability Point.

    Penalty for Failure: 1 random ability point is deducted, and the host will die instantly if the ability point is negative.

    Do you accept the assignment?

    Accepted. Su Yue now had a strange lack of ability points, so what about the qualifications to refuse. However, in his heart, he was secretly glad that the generated quests seemed to automatically generate relevant quests based on his current situation. The most important thing was that he had the right to refuse to accept it, and didn't have to fear that there would be a forced acceptance of high-risk tasks in the future.

    However, these are only speculations at this stage and need to be verified with more data.

    Setting aside the mission system, Su Yue's eyes had been gazing on the mobile suits. Driving ms is believed to be the dream of every man who has read the story of Gundam, it can be said that it is a romantic sentiment engraved in the soul.

    The Mobile Suits were formerly known as Mobile Workers, but the third son of the Zabi family, Dozulu, who was in charge of the Duchy of Gion, realized their potential for militarization and began a development program. Dr. Minovsky later joined the program and developed the epoch-making Minovsky jetpack and engine for the Mobile Suits.

    Su Yue carefully surveyed his surroundings and realized that he was really in the cab of the MS, he opened the interface purely according to his memory and checked it carefully.

    He was piloting the latest model of Gion's self-developed ms-Zagu 2(c-type) (ms-06c), which was 17.5 meters tall and weighed 56.5 tons, with ultra-high-tensile steel armor, 42,900kg of propulsion, and 0.45g of acceleration, and a variety of optional weapons, with Suyue's body being equipped with a 120mm machine gun, a 280mm bazooka, and a thermal axe.

    Originally, the commissioning of the strike is the driver's routine, everyone should be a story even if it is false. But Su Yue did not dare to casually, he knows that he is the most unqualified casually, not only because he is the first time, but also because the life is concerned.

    To be honest, to the whole ms with no size debugging is really very time-consuming, Su Yue just get good maneuvering the various nozzles, the intercom has once again come to a new order.

    Take your positions. Team 2 is on the move, targeting Chicago, the 8th.

    Copy that.

Chapter 2: The Glory of the Rookie

Chapter 2: Rookie Glory

    As mentioned above, the Earth's federal government implemented a mandatory cosmic migration program and launched a large number of colonial satellites into space. Later, 30-40 satellites formed an administrative structure, the side, and since the federal government adopted a laissez-faire approach to colonizing satellites, the colonial government of each side had a great deal of power, as if it were an independent kingdom. The move of Gion from autonomy to independent statehood is a clear demonstration of the federal government's inability to control the colonies in the universe.

    Since January 3rd, the Gion Principality has been waging war against the Earth's federal government, it has swept across the universe in just 10 days, and its methods are extremely ferocious, using everything from poisonous gas to crashing colonial planets into the Earth, resulting in the deaths of billions of civilians so far. The federal army is losing ground in the universe, and now there is only one last stronghold left in Rum, which cannot afford to be lost.

    From the deployment of military power can also be seen in the Federation's attention to Rum, she stationed in the Rum airspace is the second fleet of the Cosmic Army, under the command of Lieutenant General Tiam, there are 15 Magellan-class battleships, 45 Salamis-class cruisers, 150 Lepanto class missile frigates, 200 transport and landing ships, carrying nearly 1,000 fighters. Such a fleet was almost equal to two-thirds of the total military power of the Principality of Gion.

    Strangely enough, instead of cowering, Gion, who was clearly on the inferior side, aggressively took the initiative to display his troops in the Rum Aegis.

    Even though Su Yue had a historical memory of the development of the Cosmic Era, he didn't dare to say whether history would still follow the track in his memory. Would he become the butterfly that fanned the typhoon at the other end of the Great Flat Ocean.

    The curtain has slowly risen on the cosmic battle...

    Stand by. Two is good to go. Ready to go. - Ready to go. - Ready to go.

    Only the fixed brackets on the maneuverers were all lifted, and the base gates in front of them opened slowly. Guidance lights were lit up on both sides of the runway on the ground. One by one, the lights seemed to connect with the dark universe outside the gate.

    Su Yue, Zagu 2 strikes. Su Yue gripped the operation defense and violently stepped on the foot pedal. The active propeller nozzles on the Zagu 2 jetpack then emitted flames, and in less than 2 seconds, the body's power had already increased to the launch standard, and it was like an arrow of light rushing towards the sky.

    Ah... Su Yue couldn't help but grunt. The huge acceleration force of the machine made it difficult for him to adapt for a moment, and the moment he rose to the highest speed, the air pressure pressed the acid in his stomach into his throat.

    There was no time for anything else, Su Yue grabbed the time to meet up with the other bodies of the squad that left at about the same time.

    The place where Su Yue was on guard was the Perishable Zone not far from Side 5, where Gion had simply built field fortifications that could serve as a base for repairing and resupplying the commandos. It takes only 30 minutes to fly from here to side 8 at full speed.

    Everyone pay attention, the battle should be resolved within 30 minutes of arriving at the 8th field, there is no diffusion of Minovsky particles here, the federal bastards should receive the information within 10 minutes and reinforcements will arrive within 30 minutes.

    30 minutes Whatever the outcome of the battle must be disengaged immediately. I don't want to help you collect your corpses.

    Know.

    The Minovsky particle is named after Dr. Tornenov y. Minovsky, who discovered a phenomenon unexplained by physics at the time while developing the nuclear fusion furnace. The new particles produced by the Nuclear Fusion Furnace have near zero mass at rest, though like other particles, the mass rises to reflect their potential or kinetic energy as their velocity increases.

    These particles revolutionized the mode of warfare throughout the cosmic centuries, as the particles, when dispersed in large quantities in the air or in space, were able to isolate low-frequency electromagnetic waves, such as radio waves and microwaves, and severely hampered electromagnetic communication methods.

    Because of the high electric charge of Mie particles, when they are dispersed and touch metal objects, they are like a continuous electromagnetic pulse, so they can interfere with or even destroy electronic parts that are not protected by protective devices. Long-range wireless communication, various radar systems, and even infrared signals will be blocked.

    Rum situation to the current stage, the two sides of the fleet is not yet in place, so the Zeus domain did not receive the impact of Mie particles, increasing the difficulty of the current Su Yue squad to attack.

    After the attack, Su Yue converged on the squad, a total of three Zagu 2. After setting a good route, there is no longer his business, only have to intermittently check whether there is no deviation from the course can be.

    Flying in the universe for the first time feels truly mystical. There is no horizon, no gravity, no up and down, no distance, and you can lose yourself in it.

    At first, Su Yue was like any other human being, feeling confused and hesitant. But slowly he got a direction, he felt himself there, subtly holding the distance between the bodies, even as if measuring his own body, knowing the height of the body, the length of the hands, the length of the feet and so on. This metaphysical access was presumably cosmic spatial adaptation.

    Expect to enter the enemy radar detection range in 5 minutes. Su Yue, you're in charge of attacking the spaceport, to completely paralyze it. Brother Taiya and I will take cover. Captain Robson assigned everyone to work. Su Yue could not have expected that the important task of destroying the harbor would fall on his head.

    Most of the colonial satellites are of a cylindrical design with two to six giant large solar reflectors on the outside. The spaceport is the most strategically important part of each satellite, and it is the only way in and out of the universe from inside the satellite.

    Arrived at the predetermined location, canceled autopilot mode. The preset beeps of the fuselage sounded, indicating that the first battle belonging to Su Yue was finally about to begin.

    Su Yue slowed down a bit, letting his machine fall back behind Captain Robson's No. 1 and Tai Yago's No. 3, forming a v formation.

    By entering the critical point less than a minute later, Chicago's spaceport console immediately detected and locked onto Su Yue's 3 people.

    Three suspicious aircraft shadows have been detected.

    Send a request for identification.

    No response from the other side.

    Announcing an enemy attack, issuing a war alert directive, and informing the Confederates immediately. The commander immediately enters a state of war in the command harbor without saying a word.

    Bam! Bam! Bam!

    Enemy attack! All combatants to their posts immediately!

    Repeat! Enemy attack! All combatants to their posts immediately! The personnel in the harbor received the notification and hurriedly put on their spacesuits and helmets and rushed back to their posts.

    Flying Squirrel 1, stand by.

    Flying Squirrel 2, stand by.

    Flying Squirrel 3, stand by.

    The port's only standing war effort-three Confederate fighters, ff-s3 Swordfish-were immediately mobilized and prepared to head out to intercept the enemy planes.

    The ff-s3 is a cosmic fighter designed and built by Helvetic Corporation in accordance with the standards of the ff-x7 nuclear fighter, with a unified airframe specification, and is capable of attempting combat in a variety of environments, including the cosmic, ultra-high altitude, and atmospheric environments, through modifications. It is positioned as a high-speed heavy fighter with a 25mm gun and six missiles.

    Clear the channel, fairies out of the way, Flying Squirrel 1 is clear to strike.

    Daniel Jordan, ff-s3 Swordfish, out .... Just at the moment when it was ready to strike, Suyue's Zagu 2 II arrived just in time with a well-timed rocket shot that hit the ff-s3's wing.

    The explosion of the shells caused a chain effect, with flames and shell fragments instantly strangling a large number of the personnel in reserve. Flying Squirrels No. 2 and No. 3 were affected by the explosion and were unable to deploy. However, they were not rookies in the battlefield and would not wait for death for nothing, immediately using the 25mm machine gun in the nose of the aircraft to fire at the outside of the air harbor.

    The intertwining of blood and fire, Su Yue has not encountered will guess how he will be at that moment, will be afraid? Will be vomiting? But it turns out that when encountered, you will not even have time to react.

    Su Yue's space of travel was blocked by the machine gun fire of the two planes, the only thing he could do was to briskly make a few ejections, exiting the harbor first before counting, and his hands didn't fall behind, and in the moment before disengaging, he took advantage of the opportunity to send another rocket shell into the harbor.

    Ah! As the shells exploded, the harbor wailed all over again.

    Where did the Federals die? How long will it take? The commanding officer roared in disbelief.

    More... ...3 minutes...

    Tell them we can't afford to wait a minute!

    Flying Squirrel 2 made an emergency sortie. The pilot also knew that there would be no more replies from the refurbisher and the communicator, and that he could not wait any longer, and that if he could not get out, it would all be over.

    Ding! Destroy one ff-s3, gain 50 experience points.

    Get the achievement - Rookie Glory.

    Requirement: Destroy an enemy machine without damage to your own machine in the first battle.

    Achievement Reward: Pilot Specialization Skill (lv1), function depends on the host's outgoing fuselage.

    Congratulations to the host for gaining the skill ms(medium) driving specialization(lv1).

    MS (Medium) Pilot Specialization (lv1): when piloting a Medium MS on a mission, hit rate and evasion rate are increased by 10%.

    Unlock the achievement system. New achievement quests loaded:

    Achievement mission: Lum Falcon (single limited mission)

    Requirements: Destroy 10 enemy airframes in this battle, either alone or together.

    Quest Reward: the title of Lum Falcon.

    System, what is a single limited mission?

    Limited Quests: Special quests under limited conditions, circumstances, and time. Single Mission: A mission will only be issued once, if the mission is not completed, the mission will disappear forever.

    It's very precious looking. Su Yue thought to himself.

    What's the point of the title?

    Must be explored by the host.

    ....

    Su Yue's exchange with the system was put down first, on the other side, Flying Squirrel No. 2 and No. 3 finally forced their way out of the harbor and chased after Su Yue.

    As soon as they left the harbor, the other two Zag Suuj 2s were already waiting for them, and their machine guns formed a fire net, covering the FF-S3. Seeing that the situation was not right, the Flying Squirrels No. 1 and No. 2 climbed up vertically at full speed, and narrowly escaped from the gunfire.

    Alert, 40 machine shadows sighted 500 kilometers ahead, contact expected in 2 minutes.

    Why did you get here so fast? Was it a patrol passing through the neighborhood? Robson was in a hurry when he heard the alarm.

    Step up and fight off two stray fish!

    The plan could not keep up with the change, and Captain Robson had no choice but to order the destruction of the enemy planes in front of him, or he would be entangled in the retreat.

    The Flying Squirrel pilots were obviously not rookies on the battlefield, they also received the news of the slowdown and modified their tactics, constantly circling around the three Zagu 2s, occasionally taking 2 cold shots. Both sides immediately fell into a tug-of-war situation.

    Suddenly, Su Yue had a plan. Seeing that he left the 2 ff fighters behind, he rushed towards the Cosmic Harbor with all of his horsepower, and once again changed his weapon to a 280mm rocket launcher.

    The flying squirrels also noticed the situation over here, but could only watch in vain as Zagu 2 fired two more shells into the smoking harbor.

    Damn!

    Bastard, go to hell! The pilots of Flying Squirrel 2 and 3 were so enraged that they couldn't help themselves, they couldn't care less about tactics at this moment, they needed to take care of that darned Zagu as soon as possible, or else the explosion in the air harbor might further affect the colony star.

    Su Yue smiled smugly in his heart: finally, he had caught on.

    The first to pounce was the flying squirrel No. 2, Su Yue hands did not dare to have any contempt, has long been put away the rocket launcher, replaced by a light 120mm machine gun. But No. 2 approaching angle is very clever, from the right side of the upper dive down.

    To say this thing about mobile warriors, his design to the human body as a model, to the humanoid design, the body of the main joints are similar, the head is the main monitor (eyes). When you use it well, it is like a part of the driver's body, such as the arm, but when you use it badly, the inertia of human movement will be several times enlarged, it will become a huge constraints.

    Flying Squirrel No.2's attacking direction is the typical human visual blind spot, need to look up to catch the shadow of the machine, cut from left to right, is also the general right-handed person's weaker reaction side. A few simple movements made Su Yue's movements suddenly left and right.

    The worst was yet to come, with the #2 scratching at the front to attract attention. It turned out that the No.3 sneaked around behind them, Su Yue's eyes were focused on the main screen engagement, completely unable to pay attention to the radar alerts. The crisis came in these few seconds, the two missiles from the wing of Flying Squirrel #3 managed to lock onto the Zagu 2, and flew in at high speed.

    Caution! Robson realized the situation too late to stop it.

    Ta-da-da-da-da .... His machine gun only had time to destroy the missile before it made a direct hit on the second.

    Rumble! Because the distance was too close, the light flames and shockwaves of the explosion were like a flashbang thrown directly at Su Yue. Shocked him in front of his eyes white all over again, things are appearing several heavy shadow, ears ringing high frequency sound, the body appears unconscious shaking.

    The ff-s3 II didn't stop its attack, firing across the room in quick succession while Zagu 2 lost control.

    Quickly avoid! It was too late, Taiyago III arrived in time and pulled Su Yue away, otherwise with such a close range strafing, Su Yue's body would be half disabled if not dead.

    The strong shock caused Su Yue to remain in a daze, but strangely he seemed to have witnessed the entirety of the perilous situation just now. Yes, he even saw the flight path of the Swordfish Fighter clearly. He pushed his hand to the ground and took hold of the control stick. Underneath, he gripped the operating lever and violently snapped the trigger.

    Only to see the second machine, which was being dragged by Zagu's third machine to escape, suddenly raise its machine gun and ta-da, ta-da.

    There were only two zero sound shots, all of which hit the pursuing Flying Squirrel 2 in the cockpit position, with the two holes overlapping each other almost exactly.

    If we use the terminology of shooting to call, these two shots are called double tap (double tap), the shooter in a short period of time to shoot two shots in a row, the formation of two shots in the location of the bullet nearly overlap. The technique is so difficult that only a world-class athlete can easily make a double tap on a live target in a shooting competition. Not to mention the fact that you have to pilot a ms to make a double tap in the middle of the infinite universe.

    To the casual observer, it looked as if the Flying Squirrel 2 had been shot as if it had been sent to its death and rushed to Zagu's guns. But no one would believe that this was possible, a veteran pilot who could fly a fighter nimbly in the battlefield and keenly capture the opportunity to suddenly send to his death.

    It's a sixth sense? The sixth sense of a new human being. Can such a person be called a human being?

    Ding! Destroy one ff-s3, gain 50 experience points. Congratulations to the host's character level to 2, gained 1 ability point, next level experience value needs 200.

    System, ability points added to reactions.

    Received, response elevated to 21.

Chapter III. The Falcon of Lum (above)

    Chapter 3: The Falcon of Rum (above)

    Su Yue's miraculous double-strike knocked Flying Squirrel No. 2 down, and the originally stalemated scales instantly tipped in favor of Gion's army, but regrettably, this state of affairs lasted for only a few seconds.

    Forty machine shadows spread out from the distance, and the scales tilted momentarily in the direction of the Confederates again.

    I have good news and bad news. You guys want to hear that first? Brother Tyagoe surprisingly has some screwed up jokes.

    Have a fart and let it go!

    The good news is that only 15 of those 40 enemy planes were that tough S3 Swordfish, and the remaining 20 were FF-4 Torias, and 5 FD-2 Sky Saucers that didn't put up much of a fight.

    The bad news is, we can't outrun Torias.

    Are you serious?

    You actually questioned the judgment of Gion's first scout!

    ....

    The ff-4 Torrias that Taiyago was talking about was an old Federal Army fighter, positioned as a light interceptor, so it was small and surprisingly fast. Fortunately, its firepower is weak, and its main armament is two 25mm machine guns. It is now gradually being replaced by the new ff-s3 Swordfish.

    The fd-2 Sky Disk is a reconnaissance aircraft with four wings and a giant disk-shaped radar in the center, which looks like a green zephyr turtle from a distance. It was armed only with two 15mm machine guns. In the military, it mainly served as a reconnaissance radar and liaison communications.

    It's just as well. You don't have to choose anything. The narrow way is the best way.

    Later on, each of our three planes will pull back, and whoever takes care of their own way of pursuit first will come back over to assist the other two.

    Copy that.

    sieg zeon! (Long live Gion)

    After Robson gave the order to fight, the three Zagu 2 dropped the trailing Flying Squirrel 3, increased their propulsion horsepower, and scattered in three directions. The enemy brigade, as expected, was also bent on taking all 3 bodies, so they split into 3 squads relative to each other to pursue the Zagu.

    The ones that came after Su Yue were 1 Sky Disk, 7 Torias and 5 Swordfish. Su Yue felt a sense of alexandria, he had just overplayed himself to take out 2 Swordfish, and now he was being told to fight 5 of them at once!

    He can't choose whether to fight or not? He can only choose to fight as if it were open?

    What are the advantages of ms mobile fighters over fighters? Historically the strong digging up of ms has almost completed eliminating fighters, in other words, ms has overwhelming advantages over fighters. Su Yue thought of 3 points:

    First, the general applicability, due to the humanoid design, coupled with the application of different locations according to the performance and armed adjustment. Such as zagu type 2 (ms-06) has ms-06s high-speed type, ms-06d desert type, ms-06k zagu canon, ms0-06m water type, ms-06z brainwave conduction type, etc., armed by different caliber machine guns, to large-scale fortress-level weapons are also available.

    Secondly, maneuverability, a fighter jet will fly faster in a straight line than a typical ms because they are streamlined and have lower wind resistance. But when it comes to maneuverability, it's not just about top speed, it's about the agility of the body. ms are equipped with a large number of posing nozzles, which allows them to perform a lot of agile flight maneuvers.

    The third is the Minovsky particle factor. As I said before, when the concentration of Micah particles rises, it can block radar, infrared rays, communication waves, and so on. When the concentration is further increased to a critical point, the Minofsky effect occurs, that is, the particles are active enough to block visible light and form a green haze.

    Traditionally, fighter jets have been designed to pursue extreme speeds with automatically guided weapons, such as radar auto-locking missiles. However, the Micronautics particle subverted this design concept, when you pursue the extreme high speed, the naked eye can not operate the weapon, but when you drop the speed to the naked eye guidance, the inertial trajectory of the fighter's flight will make it a living target.

    When Su Yue thought of this, the keyword maneuver for this battle naturally came to his mind. Without saying a word he drove the Zagu 2 at high speed to the vicinity of Coloniality Chicago.

    In a few moments, 13 aircrafts arrived as expected, the front line was 7 Torias, split into left and right flanks to encircle, in the center after the fall were another 6 Sword Horns and Heavenly Saucers. Su Yue did not panic at all, just waiting for the 7 planes to encircle over, then stepped on the pedal, controlling Zagu to fly along the outer wall of the satellite.

    Satellite outer wall of the metal is very special composite sandwich, general state he is transparent glass, let the sunlight in the solar panels after reflection through. Su Yue close to the outer wall of the flight, the satellite's scenery are reflected in the eyes, their own condescending, actually have a kind of overlooking the feeling of the living beings.

    Da ... Da-da-da-da .... Da... Da... The battle finally came, the 25mm machine guns of the 7 Torias poured out wildly, forcing Su Yue to constantly adjust the Zagu 2's full body posture spraying resistance, making irregular swinging motions in an attempt to avoid the attacks.

    Some of the bullets hit the Zag Suuj, sending out a trail of sparks, but more bullets missed, hitting the outer wall of the satellite. Some of the bullets shattered the surface of the outer wall, and the metal layer, which had been as transparent as glass, was battered and bruised, while others struck the electrical wires, causing electricity to flash and sparks to fly in all directions.

    The worst misfires happened to penetrate the outer wall, and the ruptured hole formed an air well due to the difference in air pressure, and a column of air shot out. Don't underestimate these air shafts, the design of the Torias reduced the weight of the fuselage as it sought to increase its speed. And the surrounding air columns were enough to spray the Torias out of control for a short time.

    On the contrary, Zagu's high quality, coupled with a posture nozzle to counteract the air pressure, instead of being able to make a difference in this environment. Su Yue of course is not stupid, he engaged in all the brain juice to fight to the current situation, this time not shot, wait for a better time. There is no special aiming, everyone in such a close contact battle, open hand shooting can hit.

    Soon 5 Torias were destroyed and blew up into a mess.

    Ding! Destroyed 5 ff-4 Toaris, gained 200 experience points. Congratulations to the host for leveling up to 3 and gaining 1 ability point, 400 experience points are needed for the next level.

    System, add ability points to reactions.

    Ding! Reaction rises to 22 points.

    Mission accomplished: rookie.

    Mission Objective: Pilot a Mobile Suit (ms) to strike and destroy 3 Federal Bundeswehr Scout planes.

    Quest Reward: +1 Ability Point.

    Keep adding to the reaction.

    Ding! Reaction rises to 23 points.

    The continuous horizontal explosions of the    5 Torias really can't be underestimated, and the already devastated outer wall is further blown out with several large craters, and the air turbulence is even worse. The remaining 2 ff-4's saw the color of the situation and immediately increased their horsepower, pulling away and continuing to wrap around Zagu on the periphery.

    Warning! 14 thermal reactions approaching at high speed, five seconds to contact.

    Missiles?x! How dare they disregard the safety of the colonization satellites to launch missiles, what a class of mad dogs. No wonder the Federals are so unpopular in the universe, maybe they see the colonization of the universe as nothing more than second class citizens, or even a pile of garbage to be swept off the planet.

    On the other end of the spectrum, the commander of the 8th Fandango's Chicago airstrip was also witnessing the battle throughout, and he was distraught when he saw the damage to the outer wall. At this point, what's more, the Confederates went so far as to use missiles in this situation.

    Hurry up and get me Lieutenant General Tiam of the Federal Army. I want to ask what's going on!

    Know. The correspondent made a quick call.

    Hello, this side is...

    In wartime, there's no time to greet you.

    Our commander has important business...

    Doo... Doh... The other party had hung up.

    The correspondent attempted to make another call, but could not be reached, so he had to report the results to the commander.

    Abominable! The commander punched his fist on the table in anger, the other party's arrogant attitude irritated him deeply.

    Nothing comes back. Issue an evacuation warning. The commander gritted his teeth.

    Know.

    Immediately, a deafening alarm sounded inside Chicago. Emergency evacuation! Emergency evacuation! All citizens immediately enter the nearest evacuation centers!

    Repeat, this is not a drill, all citizens immediately enter the nearest evacuation center! The stupefied citizens had no idea of the battle that was being waged outside the colony, but when they heard the highest level evacuation alarm, they all subconsciously ran to the nearest evacuation centers as quickly as they normally would during a drill.

    Each colonial satellite is an island in the universe, and when there is irreparable damage, the only way out for the citizens is to abandon the planet and flee, and the sanctuaries are these escape ships. Once the Mayor gives the order to abandon the satellite, the Sanctuary will detach from the satellite, equipped with jet propulsion and a navigation system that will take the escapees to the nearest satellite.

    Within half an hour of the emergency evacuation order being issued, the second largest colony on Side 5, with a population of 100 million, was a dead city, with abandoned cars littering the streets and people running to shelters by public transportation or on foot.

    This side of the situation is therefore put down, on the other side of the battle is reaching a critical moment, Su Yue, after breaking 5 Torias, the next 5 ff-s3 Swordfish are approaching, shooting a total of 14 missiles will be contacted in 5 seconds.

    Su Yue was ruthless and threw a grenade at the outer wall of the satellite behind him.

    Boom! The metal of the outer wall burst, and the fragments surged outward with the airflow, a piece of shimmering fragments was like a snowflake dancing about, surprisingly, it had a strange sense of beauty. Su Yue hurriedly rushed into the colony star before it was locked by the missiles.

    Within a few minutes, 14 missiles hit the satellite, causing a shockwave visible to the naked eye and cracks in the metal of the outer surface that were hundreds of kilometers long.

    Warning! Warning! Colonial satellite air is losing oxygen at a rate of one percent per minute.

    The commander in the command room of the aerodrome listened to the alarms coming from the satellite monitoring system.

    Inform the Mayor that we are abandoning the star. The commander said bitterly.

    All shelters disengage from the satellite immediately. You guys go, too.

    Sir, what about you?

    You guys go. My grandfather was forced to move to this wasteland in 12 years, generation after generation, brick by brick, to build this place up, my roots are here, the roots are gone, what else can a person do.

    Sir, pull yourself together, we'll go to the 1st place and everything can start again.

    Go! Get out of here! The Commander roared with uncontrollable fury.

    The correspondent covertly winked at the other three soldiers, then, taking advantage of the commander's surprise, quickly tackled him, and the four of them worked together to carry the commander away.

    Get off me!

Chapter 4: The Falcon of Lum (below)

    Chapter 4 - Rum's Falcon (below)

    The federal army acted in a cold-blooded, shameless manner, treating human life like grass. All those who know the truth are qualified to curse it, only Su Yue is not qualified.

    He used the colonial satellites as a shield and put 100 million lives on the table, betting that the Federals would not dare to open fire indiscriminately. Unexpectedly, he overestimated the modesty of the Federals, and he lost the game so badly that he could only run for his life with his tail between his legs.

    Meanness is the passport of the mean.

    Nobility is the epitaph of the noble.

    In that gilded sky.

    Floating with the bent reflections of the dead.

    Su Yue couldn't find an excuse for his meanness, and probably didn't even intend to cover it up. In this boundless universe, what did he count as? A tiny speck of dust?

    He, an ant struggling to survive, who is he to be noble? He can't even eat on his knees, how can he ask to eat standing up? Isn't this the fundamental human desire for survival? What a beautiful word.

    The explosion of the    14 missiles was so strong that it damaged 2 of Zagu 2's calf posture nozzles. Fortunately, Su Yue saw the situation was not right and withdrew into the satellite in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. Su Yue made up his mind to lead the battlefield to a complex environment, to make full use of the maneuverability of the body.

    This battle didn't just test the nature, didn't expect a head-on battle, all Zagu's computer didn't have a pre-prepared map of the 8th fandango. Su Yue's naked eyes looked down from a high altitude, put his heart on the line, and rushed towards the place with the densest concentration of high-rise buildings.

    Dragonflies 4 and 6, continue to wind and do not let the Gion stinkbugs get away. The commander of the Federal pursuit force instructs the remaining Torias to reorganize their formation.

    Vultures 2 and 3 surrounded with me on the left, Vultures 4 and 5 from the right. S.H.I.E.L.D. helped me with a tight glare.

    Copy that.

    That being said, really letting Suyue hit it in the middle, the direction he fled from was exactly the most densely populated city in the 8th Fandango, with towering buildings everywhere. So he picked a hidden corner to land. The huge wind pressure instantly overturned the cars and street signs on the ground, sending them flying.

    Su Yue carefully ducked, fingers flying to the computer manually input commands, the original Zagu 2 although can not carry Miganon disruptor. However, Dr. Minovsky research ms, in order to make the engine exposed mobile engineers (industrial robots, the predecessor of ms) with the possibility of actual combat, especially developed a small Mija particle engine for ms use.

    As a result, the MS has a special way of using it, by increasing the power of the Minovsky particle engine, allowing the individual to block radar and communication signals. The disadvantage is that this operation is very power hungry, and computers estimate that it can only last up to 10 minutes now. Also, if the machine is operated at high speeds, the effectiveness of the jamming will be doubly reduced.

    Zagu2 was motionless and close to the building, waiting for his prey to fall into the net. If the Su Yue before crossing over was asked, he would never have imagined that he would one day be able to be so calm, decisively all walk onto the battlefield and harvest lives without hesitation.

    Abrupt! The sensation came again, and he saw two flying fish sweep by.

    Grip, aiming, board control, Su Yue naturally adjusted his breathing, controlling Zagu within half a second has made all the shooting ready.

    Ta-da! Zagu shot through the jet engines of the first Flying Fish with a perfect double combo out of thin air.

    But see Zagu did not relax at all, a big movement turn, right arm open, without any adjustment of the sight has locked to the second flying fish that just flew over the head, ta-da! The crisp sound of the second flying fish sounded again, the flying fish crashed in response to the sound.

    If the onlookers had seen Su Yue's performance, they would have praised it as wonderful, first a flowing cloud and water like double combo, then a beautiful fh, and finally followed by a difficult unsupported shot.

    Between two minutes, the winner and the loser are seen, the winner stands and the loser falls.

    Ding! Destroy two ff-s3s, gain 100 experience points.

    The host has completed three perfect double combos, congratulations to the host for gaining the skill Double Combo (lv1).

    Double Strike (lv1): while in Double Strike state, hit rate increases by 10%.

    The sound of the two planes falling was so loud that it immediately drew the attention of the pursuing force, Vulture 4 and 5, what's up?

    Immediately reply! But there was still no audio from the other side.

    Vulture 2 and 3, missile coverage, target x24, y36, the commander thought that the enemy planes should not be far away, and quickly ordered a fire coverage attack, to make sure that the enemy would not die, but also to take off a layer of skin.

    Copy that.

    Copy that.

    The three Flying Fish shot 12 missiles in a row, the distance was too close to go. Su Yue heart. He hurriedly folded Zagu's body to reduce the contact surface and turned his back to the building again, protecting the main contact surface that could be with the shield mounted on his right shoulder.

    Boom... Rumble... Rumble...

    Boom...

    Boo... Boo...

    A series of deafening explosions rang high and different, in a depreciating thousandth of a second instant, the explosive charge from the explosion to the release of a blazing heat that can dissolve the average steel.

    High temperatures cause the combustible elements in explosives, carbon and hydrogen, to vaporize rapidly, producing large amounts of gas, which expands at high temperatures, forming a gas cloud ten times higher than atmospheric pressure, and spreading at lightning speed.

    The main screen in the cockpit of Zagu was covered with snowflakes as the heat and air pressure became unstable. The impact of the diffused air mass could not be completely offset by the Zagu's outer layer of armor, causing Su Yue in the cockpit, although tightly fastened with his seat belt, his entire body was hit by a ** of vibration that caused him to swing up and down wildly, and there was blood slowly flowing out of his nostrils and earholes.

    His originally quite elegant face became like a hideous demon, the pain coming from his body kept telling him to give up, but he just wasn't willing to give up, how could he give up at this moment when it was so hard to open up the situation.

    It is not the hope that leads to perseverance, but the perseverance that leads to hope.

    As long as you carry through this wave! No matter how his body was thrown around, Su Yue's hands were just gripping the joystick, this was the only belief left in his heart.

    The ten-minute-long horizontal explosion plowed through everything in a hundred-kilometer radius, filling the ground with crumbling tiles. The explosions also caused multiple fires, and the air was distorted by the hot flames.

    Yes! I'll kill you and bury you. Remember that I'm the one who sent you to the afterlife. Ha, ha, ha!

    Get up. There are two more out there. Three ff-s3s finished this side of the mission and are planning to support the other two teams.

    Doh! A blinding red light suddenly lit up in the ruins. The huge shadow of the machine rushed out of the sky, and the nearest Vulture 1 was completely unable to react in time.

    Ah! The electrically heated axe glowing with blinding electric light slashed hard at the body of the Flying Fish, slicing it in two.

    Electrothermal Axe: A Zagu 2 regular melee weapon that can normally be mounted on the back or side of the calf. The blade of the axe can be charged at its location, generating heat that instantly dissolves high-strength composite steel.

    Ding! Destroy one ff-s3, gain 50 experience points.

    Su Yue's movements in his hands did not stop because of the destruction of the No.1, he controlled Zagu to throw the Electrothermal Axe in his hand towards another nearby flying fish. Then he quickly lifted the 120mm machine gun that had fallen to the ground earlier.

    Why don't you dual-wield your weapons? Because Zagu 2's right shoulder was damaged up to 90% after the explosion just now, and now it couldn't even be lifted. Su Yue could only fight with his left hand alone.

    The remaining two Swordfish fighters were too stunned to make effective counterattacks, and the Vulture 3 that had just avoided the electric axe throws had pulled its flight speed too low in its haste to evade, and as a result, of course, it was hard to escape Su Yue's lock, and was hit by five shots in a row at a close range, and suddenly blew up into a ball of fire.

    Ding! Destroy one ff-s3, gain 50 experience points.

    The only remaining Vulture 2 still had the courage to fight, 13 fighters surrounded 1 ms, but the result was that 9 main fighters were shot down. Vulture 2's pilot hurriedly greeted the other fighters and quickly scattered away from the battlefield, the remaining 3 fighters followed closely behind without saying a word. The main reason why they would retreat so simply was that the commander of the pursuing team, that is, the pilot of Vulture 1, had already been killed in battle, and it was an unwritten rule in the military that if the commander was killed in battle, the commander of the temporary era could choose to retreat without fear of being court-martialed.

    However, Su Yue would not let them come and go as they pleased, he did not slow down and kept chasing after the remnants of the federal army, applying pressure. Sure enough, under the great mental pressure, the commander at risk made another mistake, exposing the FD-2 Sky Disks, which lacked the most combat power in the team.

    Boom! The remnants of the Federation forces finally managed to escape the hole-riddled colonial satellite, at the cost of a sky saucer left behind forever.

    Ding! Destroy one fd-2, gain 50 experience points.

    Two, please respond!

    Two, please respond!

    Unit two, roger that. Go ahead.

    Bastard, finally contacted you, thought you were dead. A familiar rough voice came from the intercom.

    Reinforcements are here. You'll have to hold out a little longer.

    No, I beat them off.

    What?

    I shot down 5 Toaris, 4 Swordfish, 1 1 Sky Saucer and the remaining 3 ran away.

    ... A silence...

    You're a sick kid, and he's still fucking human? Captain Robson couldn't help but lament after being stunned. He himself was chased by the federal army to gasping for breath, and took all the effort to eliminate 2 Toyaris. Then thought of this kid in the twinkling of an eye is 10 downed.

    However, I have a dilemma that I need help with. I just hit it too hard, and my Zagu has only 3% energy left, not enough to get back to the ship.

    No problem. Report the coordinates and I'll send someone to pick you up.

    An encounter on a far larger scale than expected came to a close, with the reinforcement of the Gion Army's 1st Assault Brigade of Mobile Fighters, and 10 Zagu 2s thrown into the fray, leaving the outcome in no doubt.

    The ones who came to the rescue were Captain Robson and his teammate Taiyago, whose zagos were covered with large and small scars, but there was genuinely no comparison to Su Yue's one.

    The two of them carried Su Yue back to the voyage with one on the left and one on the right.

    Abruptly! Su Yue's senses came to life as a high-speed flash of heart pierced back and forth across the battlefield on the right, like a red comet.

    It's the First Captain coming, Shia Aznable, the most legendary figure in the
