Gundam Seed: Final Destination Chapter 549: : Contradictions within ZAFT, Pulse of Fate
As the chef and soldiers left, Thalia and the others also sat back at the dining table.
Just because of this episode, the atmosphere in the cafeteria is a bit subtle.
"Asuka, you were too impulsive just now."
Luna Maria Hawk felt the sight from all around and couldn't help but said to Asuka.
"It's obviously his problem, how can you blame me?"
Zhen Asuka heard the words and couldn't help but reply: "Why can Captain Noel get special care, but for the captain——"
"True!"
Before Zhen Asuka finished speaking, Ray Za Barel suddenly raised his voice and interrupted Asuka's next words.
Facing Asuka's gaze, he said helplessly, "Some things are not as simple as they appear."
As for Asuka's character, Ray Za Barel also didn't know what to say.
After speaking, the expression on Jianzhen Asuka's face was still somewhat aggrieved.
Ray Za Barel had no choice but to continue to explain: "The reason why Captain Noel won their respect is not because of his flattery, but because of his contribution to the military and his unparalleled MS driving ability."
Ray Za Barrell specifically mentioned the MS driving ability at the end. Recently, Asuka has been a little flustered because of the pulse of the driver.
This is not a good phenomenon.
Of course, he will not let the current Asuka compete with Noel, after all, there are only a few people who are qualified to challenge Captain Noel at this stage.
"I know this, I'm just not convinced that that guy treats him differently."
Asuka naturally knows this.
Actually, what he was angry about was not that Nuo Er could get special care, at least in his opinion, it was not unacceptable for Nuo Er to get special care.
What really annoyed him was the soldier's completely different attitude towards Noel and Talia.
"If you want their respect, then show the strength that they have to respect."
Thalia added.
Actually, facing the 'arrogant' attitude of the chef and soldiers, Thalia was also a little unhappy.
But there is nothing you can do if you are unhappy. The current ZAFT army is not in harmony.
The soldiers of the Sara faction have always been resistant to Durandal, and even the entire Klein's peace philosophy.
Peace talks?
Peace?
A treaty?
Military surveillance?
Armed Forces Control?
These are extremely difficult to accept for the soldiers of Sara's faction.
So from a conceptual point of view, there have been two kinds of opinions and differences within ZAFT.
If it weren't for the fact that the Sara faction still yearned for and expected to become richer and stronger, there would have been problems within Zaft.
As it happens, Thalia is a direct descendant of the Klein faction.
In addition to this, there is one more point, which is also very important.
Thalia did not become white through normal channels.
She did have military school experience and also served in the army.
But she has always been in charge of logistics, and occasionally went to the front line, but only in the rear of the battlefield, although she also participated in some wars and accumulated some prestige for herself.
But these victories cannot make her the captain in white, or even the captain of Zaft's new space battleship.
Just look at Diaka and Nigel. They haven't turned into white clothes yet.
Part of the reason why Yin Zac became Bai Yi came from his mother.
Of course, as Yin Zak, who has been fighting head-on on the front line, his reputation is enough for him to control his subordinates.
Thanks to ZAFT Army soldiers have a certain independence and autonomy.
Many times it doesn't mean that if you become a white robe, you can really be a white robe.
Soldiers under their command superficially respect and secretly disdain, and even on some occasions, there are quite a few cases of obediently obeying the orders of their chiefs.
This is also the reason why there are so few white clothes in ZAFT.
For this reason, Thalia's position in the army has always been somewhat awkward.
Fortunately, most of the soldiers on the Goddess of Wisdom are new members, so there are no unpleasant scenes.
"Let them respect the strength—"
Zhen Asuka subconsciously looked in Nuoer's direction when he heard the words.
"You are not the opponent of Captain Noel yet."
Ray Za Barrell looked at Asuka's movements and hurriedly said.
Facing other people, Asuka should be able to confront them with his current strength.
But Noel Cassia—
That's not how you look for death.
"I know, but only now."
As Asuka spoke, a trace of fighting intent flashed in his eyes.
He really will not be Noel's opponent now, he knows this, but he believes that even if he is not an opponent, he will not be too bad.
As long as you give yourself a little time, you will be able to catch up and surpass.
Asuka's self-confidence is unknown.
It's just a little strange that there's something wrong with the eyes of that idiot.
In fact, Noel also saw Thalia's problem.
But he didn't stand up to help speak out, and he wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
This is an army. Although Zaft's army is relatively lazy, it cannot change the fact that it is an army.
Nepotism does exist in the military.
However, strength is more important, especially for low-level soldiers.
If you can't come up with a reason to convince the soldiers, it won't work if anyone comes.
After all, in this period, an unreliable chief will really let his subordinates die innocently.
So the only way for Thalia to solve her own predicament is to show enough strength to silence others, otherwise everything she says will be false.
The next day.
Noel put down the detailed explanation of MS materials sent last night.
Led by two orderly soldiers, they boarded a Nazca-class warship.
After boarding the battleship, Noel immediately felt the difference between this battleship and ordinary battleships.
The most obvious ones are the equipment and personnel, some of them are wearing MS maintenance uniforms and researcher uniforms.
Obviously, this battleship is not a combat ship, but a trial battleship for MS research and development.
"Is there a butterfly effect in MS too?"
Noel groaned to himself as he followed the soldiers towards the mobile suit storage.
It is not impossible for the butterfly effect to spread to MS developers.
After all, Zaft now has his own super ace, judging from the direction of the original book, it is impossible for Durandal to let his own super ace combat power go unused.
So—
You have a new body?
But isn't the Impulse Gundam being driven by the idiot Asuka? Is there any Impulse Gundam left?
Or other new MS?
But it's not right, I was expelled from the army, it's impossible for Durandal to do such a stupid thing without a war.
Drip——
With a little bit of doubt and excitement, Noel came to the MS storage warehouse through the encrypted gate.
After all, the performance of Impulse Gundam is still very strong.
"What are you kidding, this guy is out now!?"
However, when Noel walked into the storage room and looked up at the machine body standing in the storage room, he froze in place.
The expression is both blank and stunned, with a hint of surprise mixed in between.
Destiny Gundam!
It, together with Strike Freedom, Infinite Justice, and Legendary Gundam, is called the Four Heavenly Kings of the SEED World, and can almost represent the strongest collection of the entire SEED in the MS field.
It is also the most controversial body for countless people.
Who is the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings——
This topic should not have been discussed yet
Maybe in special circumstances, it is not as good as Assault Freedom and Infinite Justice. After all, those two mechas are special machines tailored for Aslan and Kira.
But whatever the outcome.
You have to admit that Destiny Gundam is one of the strongest units set in the entire SEED world.
But the key to the problem is not the performance of the body, but the timing of its appearance.
Destiny Gundam should be a re-developed body after referring to the actual data of Impulse Gundam in the war.
But the current Impulse Gundam hasn't been on the battlefield yet, how did this Destiny Gundam come out! ?
While Noel was staring at Destiny Gundam in a daze, the soldiers who brought Noel came to the crowd below the machine to salute and said something.
Soon, the leading middle-aged man walked over with several researchers in white uniforms.
"Hello, Captain Noel, I am Moore Quinnier from the MS R&D department."
The leading man stretched out his palm towards Noel while speaking.
Noel reached out and shook hands with the opponent, pointed to the Destiny Gundam not far away and asked, "What's the situation with this MS?"
The appearance of Destiny Gundam is a bit too exciting.
"That's why we called you here. Combined with some experimental data of Impulse Gundam, we developed this Destiny Impulse Gundam numbered ZGMF-X56S-θ."
Kunnell explained: "This machine is equipped with an advanced version of Impulse Gundam's shadow system, Life Shadow System. In order to speed up the development and improvement of MS to the greatest extent, we specially invite you to come and help us conduct MS experiments. "
"Fate Shadow System?"
This term is a little unfamiliar to Noel.
"It is the collection version of Impulse Gundam Shadow System."
Quinnell went on to explain.
"Oh~"
Noel nodded in amazement.
He roughly read the information on Impulse Gundam last night.
The so-called shadow system actually evolved from the original Strike Gundam dress-up system.
It's just that unlike Strike Gundam, which has to return to the battleship or base every time it is replaced, Impulse Gundam can be replaced directly on the battlefield using drones.
At the same time, it can also recharge the Impulse Gundam, which makes up for the energy problem caused by the unusable nuclear power engine.
"Here are some parameters of Destiny Pulse. You can take a look and prepare. We will ask Captain Noel to take a test flight when we are ready."
Whilst Kunel was speaking, he took a paper document from his assistant and handed it over.
In fact, strictly speaking, this information should have been handed over to Nuoer a few days ago.
However, the situation of this body is a bit special.
It was only recently that they actually manufactured the Destiny Pulse Gundam body.
The data of the body is also a little messy.
In addition, Nuoer was only confirmed to be the driver three days ago, so they did not give the information to Nuoer in advance.
Of course, they didn't expect to let Noel conduct too many experiments today.
It's just a simple test flight and confirming some airframe conditions.
"No problem."
Noel nodded and accepted the information, and said: "Then I will go to the locker room and wait for orders. Just let me know when you are ready."
"I'm sorry."
Kunel nodded with a smile.
Noel didn't say anything more when he heard the words, he just turned around and drifted towards the MS driver's locker room.
Although this battleship was changed to be used for MS research and development, its basic structure has not changed.
Noel quickly came to the locker room along the route he remembered.
Put on the uniform for the MS experiment that had been prepared and took out the documents to read.
Unit number: ZGMF-X56S-θ1, Impulse Destiny Gundam No. 1 testing machine.
Organism Type: Experimental MS
Cockpit: Spherical shuttle cockpit for one person.
Armor type: VariablePhaseShiftArmor (variable mutual transfer armor) VPS armor.
Skeleton (limb joints): lightweight PS armor.
Skeleton (rest): Luna titanium alloy θ
Equipment features: life shadow backpack system, light wheel propulsion wing propulsion system, phantom particle colloid holographic projection system, mirage system detection system, Type Zero combat auxiliary system 1.0.
The head is equipped with: Dragoon dynamic auxiliary capture sensor, fantasy painting particle sensor.
Power source: deuteron beam power supply system.
Overall height: 18.08 meters
Full weight: 81.44 tons
Head fixed armament: MMI-GAU26 17.5mm automatic Vulcan system × 2;
High-energy long-distance beam cannon on the back × 2;
MX2351 "solid phase light" beam shield generating device × 2;
RQM60 beam boomerang × 2;
M71-AAK type anti-armor knife × 2;
Chest MMI-GAU25A type 20mmCIWS×2;
MA-BAR72 high-energy beam rifle;
MX2351 beam shield × 2;
The above is the general content of this experimental Destiny Pulse.
There are so many elements that Nuo Er is a little confused.
The beam shield generator seems to belong to the Eurasian Federation, so it was taken away by someone?
As for the glorious propulsion device, it should be the DSSD system, but that's gone too.
Well, if it's just the above content, Noel doesn't think it's too abrupt. After all, the Eurasian Federation was going to be broken last time, and it's not surprising that these core technologies were stolen by several major forces.
But the biggest problem is the Luna titanium alloy.
Has this thing appeared before...
"Forget it, anyway, I just need to be responsible for driving."
Noel thought about it, but he simply didn't want to.
What kind of things this thing is built with has nothing to do with me, I am a MS driver~IndoMTL.com~What do you care about so much.
Besides, the Luna Titanium alloy sounds awesome, so it must be stronger than the previous MS frame.
With his mind relaxed, Noel began to read the various precautions in the scribbled instructions.
It was the first time in my life to test drive an MS.
Even Gates R was handed over to himself after the experiment was completed.
However, the more you look at Nuo Er's expression, the more dignified he becomes, even a little - confused.
He roughly estimated the energy consumption of these weapons, and then he discovered a very painful problem, that is, the energy engine of this body is a bit too thin compared to the weapons it carries.
And this is not to say that you can solve it without frequent use of weapons.
Look at its system, let's not talk about the life shadow backpack system.
The light wheel propulsion wing propulsion system at the back, the phantom particle colloid holographic projection system, the mirage system detection system, the zero-type combat auxiliary system 1.0, the dragoon dynamic auxiliary capture sensor, and the fantasy painting particle sensor.
These systems are activated simultaneously with the body, and the energy consumption of these systems cannot be supported by ordinary energy engines.
Should it be said that it is indeed an experimental mobile suit? If you drive this mobile phone on the battlefield and encounter a siege, you will probably run out of energy after being hit every minute.
With such doubts, Noel read the manual several times again.
This is the minimum respect for new MS.
About half an hour.
The voice of the bridge CIC came from the battleship radio:
【MS test pilot Noel Cassia, please go to the MS storage warehouse to stand by! 】
[Repeat, Noel Cassia, please go to the MS storage warehouse to stand by...]
After hearing the noise, Noel threw the instruction manual in the air, got up and floated towards the MS storage warehouse.
