Infinity Frontier

Chapter 26 Employment of the Archangel

Watching Erica turn and leave, the smile on Xiao Yun's face did not show any change, he started the car with the box that Luo handed him, kicked the gas pedal and galloped away.

Passing through the uninhabited area, Xiao Yun traveled [-] to [-] kilometers in the desert and returned to the base of Liming Desert.

As soon as I drove the car into the canyon where the base is located, I saw the Archangel already docked on the edge, and the Strike Gundam laying a camouflage net on the Archangel.

Looking up at the sky, at this time the sun had just started to slant westward from the center, and Xiao Yun realized that he had not slept all night.

After asking where the leader of Axiuman was, Xiao Yun found Axiuman in a cave in the canyon along the way.

Inside the cave is the headquarters of the Liming Desert. As soon as Xiao Yun entered, he saw Ashman sitting on the sand table map in the middle, and Maru, Bakilulu and Mu stood aside. They seemed to be discussing something .

"Hi."

Xiao Yun raised his hand and waved towards a few people, sniffed at the tip of his nose and smiled and said to Ashman: "It tastes good, do you mind giving me a cup?"

Ashman stood up, walked to the side, poured Xiao Yun a cup of coffee and handed it over: "Is the matter over?"

"Yeah." Xiao Yun took a sip of his coffee, and suddenly his whole body shivered: "Wow, it's so bitter, it obviously smells very good."

Ashman: "We don't pay much attention to the taste here, the smell is already the only thing that can be picky."

Xiao Yun chuckled: "Although I said so, the effect is really good. This sip makes me feel full of energy, but something like coffee is sweeter and more suitable for me."

Ashman shook his head, returned to the table just now, and said to several people on the Archangel: "He has come. Although he is working for us, his main task is to provide protection and assistance, and he will not actively join. When it comes to our battle, the battle that occurred last night was purely accidental, it was just that we ran into the ZAFT army that was going to attack you in advance."

"So if you have any request, you can discuss it with him face to face. If he agrees, we will not object, but if he refuses, I hope you will not force it. It is up to him to decide whether he will participate in the war."

As soon as Xiao Yun heard Ashman's words, he looked at the three of Maru, as if he wanted him to do something here.

"Of course." Ma Liu nodded and looked at Xiao Yun, and said, "Hello, we hope to hire you to assist us in the next period of time until we open the passage to leave here."

Xiao Yun pointed to himself, looked at Ashman strangely and said to Maru, "Hire me?"

Maru affirmed, "Yes."

Xiao Yun pulled Axiuman aside, and whispered, "What's the situation?"

Ashman explained to Xiao Yun: "They want to break through the tiger's defense line, but their current combat power is insufficient, so they want to entrust you to help after knowing that you are a mercenary."

Xiao Yun was thoughtful: "Is that all?"

Ashman nodded: "On the surface, it just looks like this. It is indeed a bit difficult to break through the tiger's defense with a ship and a mobile suit. In addition, our goal is to resist the tiger's rule here. The opponent's The goal is different but the result is the same, and they can't leave without solving the tiger."

"They asked you to participate in the war as a main combat force. Although I hired you in name, you also know what the actual situation is, so I didn't agree for you. After all, the decision to participate in the war is in your hands , I just excused the reason for your employment of assistance and protection."

After Ashman explained, Xiao Yun finally understood the cause and effect, and said, "So they proposed to hire me additionally?"

Ashman said, "That's right."

"I see." Xiao Yun nodded, then walked back and said to Maluji: "I can accept the hiring, as long as the price is reasonable, but after all, it is a frontal battle with the regular army. So we have to talk about the price.”

Maru said: "Sorry, I'm afraid we can't meet your request in terms of money for the time being, but if you are willing to accept it, we are willing to use other things as payment for this employment."

Xiao Yun asked: "For example?"

Maru said, "Equipment for mobile suits."

Xiao Yun suddenly smiled: "It's kind of interesting, just the equipment used by your mobile suit? As far as I know, those equipment are not worth the price for me to risk fighting against the regular army."

"Brother, those equipments are very valuable in the eyes of many people." Mu hehe smiled and took over the conversation: "As long as you find a suitable seller, you will definitely make a lot of money, brother."

Xiao Yun pretended to hesitate and thought for a while, and said: "Actually, I'm a waste merchant and not a mercenary, so I can wait for the battle between you and Zaft to end before going to your ship to search. No need to face Zaft's regular army."

Mu: "???"

"Just kidding." Xiao Yun chuckled, waved his hands and said, "However, if you are willing to open up your equipment library to me, then it is not impossible to consider this matter. Besides, once I agree to you, even if I use your equipment, it is actually for you work."

Maru smiled and said, "No problem."

When the three people from the Archangel left, Xiao Yun also shook his head in confusion: "I don't know why, why are these people willing to use those things as rewards for me?"

Ashman also shook his head to express that he was not sure, but he also had his own opinion: "The equipment that can be used is called equipment, and the equipment that cannot be used can only be regarded as decoration. I am afraid that they are not allowed to put more things in the current situation." Put it in the warehouse as a display."

"A display?"

The two words Ashman said made Xiao Yun suddenly understand: "So that's the case, maybe it's really just a decoration, the assaulter is not needed, but it can be handed over to me."

Ashman didn't quite understand what Xiao Yun said, he shook his head and said, "I have someone prepare a place for you to rest, do you want to go and rest for a while?"

"Alright."

Xiao Yun didn't refuse either, and then Kajiali appeared in front of Xiao Yun, and said to Xiao Yun with a stern face, "Come with me."

After saying hello to Ashman, Xiao Yun followed Kajiali out of the command room, followed behind Kajiali, and Kajiali suddenly asked: "Why did you agree?"

"Promise to assist the Archangel?" Xiao Yun laughed, and said, "Isn't your purpose to help Liming Desert solve the threat of tigers? Now that the Archangel's assistance appears, it is the best chance to eliminate tigers in one fell swoop." , I don’t agree, do I have to hold back?”

"What's more, if you agree, you can still get the reward from the Archangel, and even if I don't agree, I still have to fight Zaft because of protecting your safety. If this is the case, of course I have to find some benefits for myself first, besides The mobile suit equipped with the MS provided by the Archangel can also exert stronger power, and my task can be completed easily, no matter how I look at it, there are only advantages and no disadvantages in agreeing."
