Gundam Seed: Final Destination Chapter 34: : The first task
Time flies~
In a blink of an eye, it is CE~71 years.
On January 15, the fighting on the Tropic of Cancer front in the Pacific intensified, and ZAFT attacked the Kaohsiung Spaceport of the Asian Republic.
At the same time, Noel was quite comfortable in Kruse’s team~
On January 20th, in Heliopolis, the GAT-X series and new warships left the factory secretly.
January 21st.
Noel walked into Cruzer’s office…
“Are you looking for me?” Noel walked into Kruse’s office and poured himself a cup of tea without looking outside.
“You don’t seem to have anything special lately?” Kruse is not annoyed by this, or he is used to Noel’s style of doing things.
“Who said that? I’m a part-time mech maintenance person! There’s too much to do!” Noel hurriedly defended himself.
“Really?” Kruse looked Noel up and down.
“Of course!” Noel replied without blinking.
Actually, Noel was really comfortable during this period of time.
The Cruzer team has a detached status and basically only performs special tasks.
And for special missions, elites must be dispatched~ Hongyi! That is Aslan and the others.
With the red clothes in front, the little green clothes Nuoer will naturally be left unattended, just go out and wander around for a while, and just wait a little while after fighting or something.
At other times, because he has a very good relationship with Kreuzer, Aslan and others, it is difficult for others to order him to do things.
Yitzhak really wanted to use Noel, but Noel chose to work as a part-time mech repairer, after all, he had been in the mech repair class for so… so long.
Someone with a record, too!
After coming and going, Noel somehow became an idle member of Kruse’s team, and his small life was not too comfortable.
“Really, but the salary of a mecha maintenance worker may not be enough to continue to pay for your medicine.” Kruse, as the captain, naturally saw what Noel did.
Moreover, the other members have more or less told themselves that Noel’s existence somewhat affects the mentality of other players.
“This… don’t I still have MS to drive?” Noel’s expression changed slightly, and he just tried to defend himself.
“Really? But you haven’t played the last few times.” Kruse continued to ask.
“Well, isn’t there too much mecha maintenance?” Noel replied.
“Then your salary this month will be calculated according to the salary of mecha maintenance.” Kruse continued.
“Don’t, don’t, let’s count according to MS.” Noel was in a hurry, it doesn’t matter if others lose a month’s salary, if he loses his salary, he might just die.
Because he graduated from the ZAFT military academy, it is assumed that he is an adult and has the ability to take responsibility on his own, so now he not only has to repay the debt he owed in the early stage, but also bears the cost of purchasing medicine in the future.
And the prices of these two things… are a little bit high.
Because he is a mobile suit driver, his current salary is barely paid, and basically he will lose it when he gets it.
“Hehe, you should have experienced the feeling of taking myrrh in private.” Although Cruze said interrogative sentences, the lines between the lines were full of determination.
Nuoer’s expression froze when he heard the words. As a curious boy, he must have experienced the feeling of wanting to live and die.
After all, money can only be saved when it can’t be earned, and Noel still feels that Kreuzer is exaggerating the aftereffects of the medicine, and he doesn’t believe it.
So when he was studying at the ZAFT military academy, he once delayed taking medicine for about half a day.
As a result… Noel finally knows what hellish torture is.
At first, the whole body was itchy and unbearable, even the scalp was itchy, and then the whole body was numb, as if every muscle was tense.
After the two interacted for a period of time, I felt severe pain and dizziness all over my body, my brain was frozen, and there was only one consciousness in my mind, which was to find the medicine.
But it took only half a quarter of an hour for this thought to occur, and soon the whole body was paralyzed, unable to feel the limbs, as if the spine had been interrupted, but the pain and all kinds of numbness and itching still existed.
He could only lie on the ground and howl silently, but fortunately, after this situation lasted for about a few minutes, he barely regained control of his limbs, and only then was he able to grit his teeth and put the potion that was close at hand into his mouth.
After that incident, Nuoer began to carry multiple potions with him to ensure that there would be no myrrh.
“I have a task here for you, as long as you can complete this task, then I will give you an extra month of medicine.”
Seeing Noel’s gradually frozen expression, Kruse laughed silently. Sure enough, this guy had experienced it in private.
But that’s fine, I’m too lazy to waste my time talking.
If you want to be lazy, it must be impossible!
“Give me an extra month of medicine?” Noel couldn’t help shrinking his pupils when he heard this. According to the experience information of the research institute, he can reduce the dosage of medicine after taking the medicine for about a year, and return to normal in at most two years.
The medicine for an extra month is already a lot.
“Do you want to give it a try?” Kruse continued to ask.
“Can you tell me what the task is?”
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Noel really can’t bear that kind of torture. The euthanasia Kruzer said is really not too much.
And an extra month’s potion, that is to say… What’s the difference between this and getting a month’s potion?
“According to the exact information, the Earth Alliance seems to be making a very nice little toy, and I need you to go and confirm it.” Kruse explained.
“That’s it?” Noel was stunned, I thought it was something serious, after a long time, this is it?
“That’s it, isn’t it very simple.” Kruse laughed.
“Are you sure you didn’t lie to me? Are you really just confirming the information?” Noel was a little bit unconvinced, and the matter sounded too simple.
It can even be said to be too simple.
“When have I ever lied to you?” Kruse asked, spreading his hands.
“Uh…Okay! I’ll take it!”
Noel, after thinking about it carefully, it really is the case. Cruze’s credit is quite worthy of recognition. At least after getting along for so long, this guy hasn’t lied to himself.
“Then tomorrow you will take the shuttle directly to Orb’s Heliopolis colonial satellite, and someone will pick you up somewhere when you arrive.” Kruse said and handed over a chip reading device.
“Hmm, huh!?”
“Go to Orb’s colony!?”
CE-711/22~
The vast universe often gives people a mysterious color, and the endless darkness is dotted with diamond-like stars.
A shuttle dragged its long tail across the darkness.
“Mom, look at that, it’s so beautiful~~”
“Do you like it?”
“Yeah!”
“Hehe~IndoMTL.com~ as long as you like it.”
“Finally escaped from that horrible place.”
“I heard that Kaohsiung is about to be captured by ZAFT?”
“Isn’t it true that the Earth Alliance forces are so hip?”
“I also think it’s impossible, after all, the Earth Alliance is not vegetarian.”
“However, the ZAFT army is really strong, and Kaohsiung may not last long.”
“It shouldn’t be.”
“Forget it, what are you talking about, it has nothing to do with us anyway.”
“That’s right, we are a neutral country, so ZAFT can’t come and start a war with us.”
“By the way, did you watch the concert that day?”
“What concert?”
“Singer Lacus, that figure, that good looks, that singing voice, tsk~ it’s amazing!”
“Brother, if you want to talk about this, I won’t be sleepy!”
“······”
Inside the shuttle, countless well-dressed men and women discussed various national affairs, and the first to bear the brunt was naturally the conflict between ZAFT and the Earth Alliance.
And if you observe carefully, you will find that when they talk about the war between the two sides, there is nothing strange or worried on their faces, but more of a kind of calm and freehand.
Soon, amidst people’s chatter, the shuttle quickly arrived at its destination ~ the Heliopolis colonial satellite of the neutral country Orb.
“Da~”
Ten minutes later, outside the airport in Heliopolis.
A young man in black plain clothes was standing on the side of the street carrying a satchel, looking bitterly at the city where people were coming and going.
The person who came was none other than ~ Noel Cassia.
