Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 154 Hope and Despair

The three of Yang Hui walked towards their exclusive lounge talking and laughing. Although they had been out fighting for a long time, they were still two generals and a colonel. It would be unreasonable not to have their own room in the headquarters.

But on the way, they encountered the Woluf team who stopped.

"What are you looking at?" Yang Hui and the others stopped and asked.

"Lieutenant General! Major General! Colonel!" Albright, Max, and Alyssa saluted respectfully, and Arthur, who originally wanted to communicate directly, quickly followed.

"Relax, it's not war time, so don't be so serious." Yang Hui replied with a salute.

"Yes!" X4.

"What are you looking at? Let me have a look... [Special Training Program for Next Generation Pilots]... Well, this thing that Fleet made is interesting." Yang Hui praised while rubbing his chin.

The [Tianren] brigade is the cradle of ace pilots of the Federal Army. This has not changed for more than ten years, but those who can join the [Tianren] brigade for further studies are all elites. So Fleet came up with a pilot training plan that could satisfy ordinary pilots.

This is also the ticket to go to the [Tianren] brigade for further study. Instead of forcing people to force them or go to other troops to select one by one, it is better to organize them into a systematic program. Pilots who can get good results in special training, combined with reality Records are used to determine whether they are qualified to join the [Heavenly Man] brigade.

"Do you know Lieutenant General?" Alyssa asked.

"Well, it's made by Fleet. It's the ticket to enter [Heaven and Man]. Through various training subjects, you can master the characteristics of the pilots. Based on this, you can cultivate the comprehensive combat capabilities of the pilots. In fact, if you have an excellent record, you will have the opportunity to enter the [Tianren] brigade."

"Eh? Really or not?"

"Is this how the members of the [Tianren] brigade are selected?"

Alyssa and Max exclaimed that being able to join the [Heaven-Man] brigade is the dream of every pilot in the Federal Army, and they were naturally moved.

"It wasn't before, it's just that it's more systematic, but whether you can join or not depends on..."

"Look at what?" The four asked anxiously.

"It depends on our mood." The corner of Yang Hui's mouth curled up, and he gave a very absurd answer.

"Eh? Why is this..."

"I lied to you."

"Eh!?"

"Whether you will join depends on many factors. Driving skills and record are only one aspect, as well as mentality, character, perseverance, etc. You also know that the task of the [Tianren] brigade is definitely the most dangerous. It is also important to maintain a good attitude under pressure."

"I see, I see, but what does character mean?" Max asked.

"Do you like to be in the same team with the person you hate?" Yang Hui asked the four of them.

"I don't like it." The four of them shook their heads in unison.

"It's not worth it."

Seeing Yang Hui spreading his hands, the four of them understood. Although it felt like a joke, it was really reasonable. Who wouldn't want their colleagues to be the type they like?
"Then I don't have a chance?" Alyssa lost enthusiasm for the special training for a while.

"Don't say that, regardless of qualifications, this special training is quite useful. The stronger you are on the battlefield, the more hope of survival, and this training can also test the X-Rounder ability. For ordinary pilots , still very good..."

"Uncle Yang Hui, did you say that this training can test the ability of X-Rounder?" Arthur was not interested at first, but he couldn't calm down when he heard about the ability of X-Rounder.

He lost to Gerhardt twice and was lenient by Gerhardt's subordinates twice. Unwilling, he blamed everything on the X-Rounder ability, thinking that as long as he had the X-Rounder ability, he could defeat Gerhardt, so he urgently He hoped that he could awaken the X domain and defeat Gerhardt.

X-Rounder capabilities are very rare, and the military's research on the X field is also very backward, and there is no detailed information at all. At this time, Arthur, who is at a loss, cannot let go of the excellent opportunity he encounters.

"What? You care about X-Rounder's ability?"

"...Well...if I have the X-Rounder ability..."

Seeing Arthur clenching his fists and biting his lip, he couldn't help shaking his head. Gerhardt's talent is indeed higher than that of Arthur. Even if he is not an X-Rounder capable person, Arthur wants to catch up. He also needs several times of hard work, not to mention that Jerhardt has been Izerkanda's promising inheritor since he was a child, and has always received the most elite education and training, which is not comparable to Arthur's half-playing training.

However, Yang Hui didn't intend to dampen Arthur's enthusiasm. Some things are good or bad only after trying. Moreover, even if he doesn't have the X-Rounder ability, special training is also good for Arthur.

"Then go ahead. Although it is mainly aimed at pilots with more than 5 years of driving experience, there are no clear restrictions on participants. You can all try it out." Yang Hui said.

"Yes!" X4
The one who was most excited was Arthur. When he learned that he could participate in special training, he seemed to see the ability of X-Rounder beckoning to him.

Seeing the four people leaving happily, You Lin asked Yang Hui with some concern: "Why didn't you tell him the truth?"

"The fact that his X-Rounder adaptability is very low?"

Not only Yang Hui, who is very familiar with the plot, but also Graham, Yulin, Fleet and others know that Arthur's X-Rounder ability is very low in adaptability, and I am afraid that he will not be able to awaken the X domain in his life.

(There will be resonance among X-Rounder ability users, even if they have not awakened for the time being, Yulin can feel the weak resonance.)
"Well, now he's hopeful, but when..."

"Just tell him like this, will he believe it? Or will he accept it?" Yang Hui asked You Lin back.

You Lin was silent. Yang Hui was right. Even if he told him the truth, the current Arthur would not accept it. Some things can only be known after they have experienced them.

"I'm afraid that Arthur will be devastated." Yulin worried.

"It's time for me to play," Graham said.

"Graham?"

"You are an X-Rounder capable person, and Yang Hui is a changer, neither of them is a normal person, so I will tell Arthur that even a normal person can kill X-Rounder." Graham said proudly, he never I envy Yang Hui and You Lin, and I have never longed for special powers like changers or X-Rounders, and I am even proud of being a natural person.

but……

"G~la~ha~mu~"

"Hmm!" Feeling the chill, he turned his head stiffly, and saw the "gentle" smiles of Yang Hui and You Lin, "What's the matter...?"

"I think we need to have a good discussion on what "正～normal～人～" means."

"Well, I think so too."

Graham turned and ran, but before he could take the first step, Yang Hui grabbed the back of his collar.

"Let go! Yang Hui! Let go!"

"Don't worry, we just thought of an interesting battle formation, and we are worried that no one will try it."

"Don't! I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

"Hehe." X2
"Let go~!!!!"

……

Arthur, who was about to go to training, came out of the room and ran into Romie. Thinking that he hadn't had a good chat with Romie for a long time, and there was still some time before the training started, Arthur decided to have a good chat with Romie. After a chat, after all, between him, Gerhardt and Romary...

"It's been a long time since I chatted like this, and there is almost no chance to talk on the boat."

"Yeah..." Romary felt a sense of sadness in her heart. She wanted to follow the footsteps of Arthur and Gerhardt, so she disregarded her parents' objection to join the army. As a result, she couldn't have a good chat with Arthur for so long. After chatting, I didn't see Gerhardt.

"That... Arthurm..."

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Romary hesitated to speak, Arthur asked proactively.

"No...it's nothing..." Romary wanted to ask Arthur many questions, but she couldn't speak when she saw Arthur's eyes, so she changed the subject, "Arthem, what's the matter with this uniform ?”

"Oh, I'm in special training and I want to get stronger."

"Yatham is still working so hard, it seems that he really likes the lieutenant general and the others."

"Well... not only uncles and others, but also Gerhardt..."

"Jerhardt..."

When Gerhardt was mentioned, the dull air began to spread, and the two who were chatting happily before became gloomy.

"Is it... your agreement?"

"Um……"

"Have you and Gerhardt... met since then?"

"Well, in the last battle, he was driving the red mobile suit."

"That's it..." Romary didn't know what to say. Although she hadn't said much, she had been paying attention to Arthur, and she also knew that Gundam AGE-2 was defeated by the red MS and was very depressed afterwards.

Although she knew the agreement between them, she felt very sad to see the two of them fighting and hurting each other.

"Well... in order to defeat Gerhardt, I must become stronger, otherwise..." Although he didn't finish speaking, Arthur still added the second half of the sentence in his heart.

"... Otherwise, how can I protect you?"

"Is that so...you...do you still want to fight after all..."

"...Well, I am a federal soldier, and he is VEGAN..."

"Artham..."

"what happened?"

"Can you promise me one thing?"

"what?"

"Just... just... can you protect yourself?" Romary mustered up the courage to say what she wanted to say most, but she only said half a sentence, because she wanted to protect herself, not just Ya Thom, and Gerhardt.

"...Well! I promise you!"

At this moment, Arthur's heart became stronger and firmer, and some vague feelings in his heart gradually became clear.

Although the fighting spirit was high, it was ultimately no match for the cruelty of reality. Two days later, the special training came to an end, and Arthur checked his training results confidently.

Physical fitness, shooting ability, reaction ability... are basically A or B, and this grade is very good even in the entire federal army.

But Arthur was not happy, but trembling with despair, because...

"X-Rounder ability adaptability...D..."
