A journey through the Gundam world

"Asmodeus, everything is fine."

"Grayze please retreat to a safe distance, while Asmodeus conducts some final self-checks before the test."

"receive."

"clear."

After the two men finished their reports, they began their respective actions.

"Captain, please be safe."

Before controlling the machine to evacuate, Sanriyue did not forget to warn Alex again.

"Anxin, I am a man who makes the impossible possible."

Alex, who carelessly planted a flag for himself, gave Mikazuki a thumbs up through the tablet in the dark cockpit.

After Graze retreated to a safe distance, Asmodeus's self-examination program was completed.

"The system self-test is normal and the machine can be started."

The self-test was performed via equipment connected to the unpowered console, and then relayed to the Fishing Fire through the Graze through the undisconnected tow line.

Communication between the two parties is also conducted in this way for the time being.

Mikazuki in the cockpit felt her heartbeat speed up as she listened to Alex's orderly conversation with the bridge.

"Received, the data is normal."

Yukinocheng looked at the received body data and found that everything was fine.

"Asmodeus, you can activate."

"receive."

After receiving the order, Alex pressed the big red button to start the machine without hesitation.

Following a buzzing sound, he felt as if his spirit was swept away by something.

At the same time, it is connected to the tablet of the console to quickly refresh massive data content.

But what is reassuring is that there are no errors or warnings.

This made both Alex and Yukinocheng, who were monitoring the data simultaneously, heaved a sigh of relief. At least there was no explosion on startup.This is already half the battle.

"The machine started normally, the Ahab furnace has been restarted, there are no abnormalities."

Soon, as the Ahab furnace started smoothly, the screen and console of the machine lit up.

First, I raised my head and glanced at the screen to confirm that there was no problem with the image imaging.

He lowered his head to look at the operating status of various equipment on the manufacturing table.

"The screen image is normal."

"The console UI is normal."

"The communicator is normal, Sanming, please disconnect the traction rope."

"Yes! Captain."

The long traction cable between the two aircraft was released and then retracted under the control of Graz Kai.

The signal on the screen flickered for a moment, then returned to normal immediately.

Contact with the bridge was now through Asmodeus's own equipment.

"Bridge, Mikazuki, can you hear me?"

"The signal is clear."

"You can hear me, Captain."

After confirming that there is no problem with the communication, the next step is the specific functional test.

"Very good, next, the body function test. The first is the propulsion device test."

Alex released the tablet connected to the console, but did not disconnect it. After all, he still needed to read specific data through it.

With both hands on the joystick, he began testing the thrusters and attitude regulators.

For safety reasons, Asmodeus was only loading the minimum amount of propellant at this moment.

Therefore, during the test, he only operated the attitude adjustment nozzle and thruster nozzle to conduct a short injection test.

On the bridge, Asmodeus was seen flexibly rolling back and forth, then moving left and right, circling.

Mikayue looked at it with an eager look in her eyes.

The flexible mobile suit in front of you will be your own car!

"The thruster is in normal condition."

"Attitude adjustment nozzle, normal."

Yukino Cheng checked the options on the tablet and nodded.

"Very good, the next step is the mobility test of the limbs and body."

Although the content of the test is very complicated, it is a necessary process.

It is said that Asmodeus was not used because he was involved in the explosion, and his physical condition has been maintained in good condition.

But after all, it's been hundreds of years, and the devil knows what's wrong.

You can't say that you let Mikayue drive directly onto the battlefield, only to find something wrong there.

At that time, there will be no way to go back to Gnaku for repairs after discovering the problem like now.

If you do this, someone might die!

Mikazuki on the side listened to Alex conduct one test after another in an orderly manner.

I was very moved in my heart, after all, these tests should have been completed by myself.

But Alex took over this dangerous task, actually to take care of himself.

In fact, he didn't know that Alex simply wanted to test drive Asmodeus.

I want to see if I can get any hidden rewards by activating the MS I got from my mission.

The tests were carried out one by one. Although Asmodeus had been drifting for a long time, according to the tests, it was still in the same good condition as when the repairs were just completed.

Alex guessed that this should be the result of the system.

After all, when this machine body disappeared, it had just been repaired.

But 300 years is no joke.

The Gundam frame and Ahab Furnace can indeed be stored for a long time, but even the outer armor looks brand new from the factory, which is very abnormal.

(System "a little magic" (akimbo))

The previous tests have been completed, and finally it is time to test the weapon system.

As long as there is no problem with the weapon system, then this aircraft is completely OK and can be put into battle immediately.

"Prepare for weapons testing."

"Understood. Sanming, weapons."

Graz, who was originally hiding at a safe distance, closed the distance and handed the weapon to Asmodeus.

As mentioned before, Asmod's spare parts are very complete.

Naturally, it also includes consumable weapons and equipment and special ammunition.

However, there are no shooting weapons included. This does not mean that this aircraft cannot use long-range shooting weapons.

In addition to the fixed weapons on both arms, this machine also has the same weapon racks as Barbatos installed on the back.

Obviously it can be used universally with other conventional weapons and equipment.

Alex estimated that it was either due to safety considerations during transportation, or maybe because the ship was filled with parts and there was no extra space for loading.

And general destinations will definitely have reserves of such shooting weapons, so shooting weapons as general-purpose weapons are abandoned.

But this is not a problem. The Yuhuo naturally has long-range shooting weapons used by MS.

After controlling the machine body to receive the 110mm assault rifle passed over by Gretz, Asmodeus turned around and raised the assault rifle.

In the cockpit, Alex aimed at a piece of debris with a small diameter and opened fire.

Sparks erupted from the muzzle of the assault rifle on the screen as the sound of a shot was fired into the cockpit via Foley.

A piece of wreckage was shrouded in the explosion, and soon exploded into pieces.

"Aiming system needs calibration."

Seeing that the target that was originally the target was intact, but a piece of debris next to it was torn into pieces, Alex was not surprised.

After hanging the assault rifle back on his waist, he skipped the subsequent smoothbore gun firing test.

They all went to grandma's house. It doesn't matter if the smoothbore cannon is tested or not, it will be shot anyway.

Graz then changed to the formal armament of this machine.

A strange long sword called the 'Giant's Javelin'.

According to the data, this long sword can not only be used as a melee weapon, but also has mid-range combat capabilities.

Through the launching mechanism, the sword blade can be launched and used as a javelin.

It can be retrieved through the cable connecting the handle to the blade, or used as a soft sword to swing around.

Alex tried it and found that this thing was somewhat difficult to use.

When the javelin is launched and recovered, it is not difficult, but when it is thrown around, it is easy to hurt yourself like a nunchuck.

However, I believe that for Mikazuki with Alaya consciousness, it only takes a certain amount of practice to be able to operate it skillfully.

"Sanming, you need more practice to use this sword proficiently, so in a short period of time, use this soft sword mode with caution."

"Understood, Captain."

Seeing the way Asmodeus was swinging the sword around on the screen, Mikazuki naturally understood how difficult it was to manipulate.

He took back the long sword and handed it back to Graz for correction.

At the end, and the most exciting thing, the body fixed armament test came.

This pair of giant crutches fixed on the arms of the machine are Asmode's main weapons.

Following Alex's control, the crutch that was originally pointing backwards rotated 180 degrees, and then like a swinging stick, the telescopic barrel quickly unfolded.

"Sanming, use the giant javelin in your hand to attack me."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Mikazuki manipulated the machine without hesitation to raise the long sword and aimed it at Asmode and struck it down on the head.

I saw Asmodeus raising his arms and two hollow crutches crossed in front of the machine.

Accompanied by the vibration of the machine body and the impact sound from the Foley device, Asmodeus easily executed the slash.

"Come again!"

"Yes!"

Mikazuki controlled the machine body and continued to swing the long sword, launching waves of attacks at Asmode, but they were all blocked by the pair of crutches.

"What are they doing?"

Olga, who had just arrived on the bridge to take over, saw two mobile suits standing on the spot and attacking each other on the screen.

"Ah, Olga, the leader and Mikazuki are conducting Asmode's activation test."

"oh, I see."

Olga looked at Graz Kai who was slashing with a long sword on the screen.

"So, is the leader attacking?"

"No, it's Mikazuki."

Hearing this, Olga was stunned.

"Wait a minute! Is the leader on Asmode?"
