A journey through the Gundam world

In the eyes of everyone, the restraints were loosened.

The machine body landed on the deck, and then the machine body took its right foot first.

Gnaku's low gravity is to facilitate the work of the maintenance team.

However, although it can levitate the maintenance team, it is still not enough for MS to levitate.

Therefore, Astaru still needs to move to the elevator and then descend to the catapult position.

As the first step was taken, the left foot of the body also took a step.

"Success!"

While others were cheering, Alex in the cockpit heard a warning sound.

The screen shows that the center of gravity of the aircraft is shifting to the left. It is obvious that the left side is too heavily armed...

People outside also saw that the machine body was obviously tilted to the left. Just when they were worried, they saw the MS's left foot moving outward and stopping the tilt.

"The outer armor on the left hand is really getting in the way."

Alex did not panic. As a veteran, it was not like he had never encountered this kind of situation before.

After moving the left foot of the machine outward to support it, he gently pushed the joystick to adjust the balance of the machine.

"Yamaki, when you come back, remember to readjust the parameters of both legs of this machine."

He ordered habitually.

"Understood, Captain."

Then, in the cockpit, he used the awkward technique of using his left hand lightly and his right hand heavily.

He moved Astaru to the catapult, believing that everything would be fine once he entered space.

The fixed body was lowered to the ejector position.

"The catapult connection is complete and the catapult hatch has been opened."

Listening to the voice in the communication, the pre-ejection preparations are basically completed.

Alex had already seen the open hatch on the screen, and the hand holding the joystick clenched and opened unconsciously.

At this time, Astali was placed face down on the catapult. This unique iron-blooded method of making the MS lie prone and eject was not unfamiliar to Alex.

He had already experienced it in the first world.

In the UC world, the Federation Army's ejection method is to let the MS eject while standing.

But this was not the case for some of the Zeon Army's early models of battleships.

In order to cover up the fact that it can carry MS, and to stuff as many MS as possible into it.

The early Musai-class light cruisers and partially modified MS transport ships of the Zeon Army were ejected like iron-blooded assault armored ships, with the body lying on the catapult.

After the One Year War, Alex, as the victor, was transferred to the "Weapons Investigation Committee" established after the war to serve as a test pilot.

Therefore, he experienced this special ejection method of the early type Musai.

Although I have experienced it many times before, this time I piloted an unfamiliar and obviously asymmetrical aircraft.

It gave him a sense of nervousness like when he experienced ejection for the first time.

"Captain, the ejection preparation is complete and it is time to dispatch."

"Understood. Alex, Gundam Astari, move out!"

Then the machine body was quickly ejected into space, and many people were watching the MS on the screen.

After leaving the catapult, Alex subconsciously pushed the thrusters on both sides in equal amounts.

Then the next moment, the body began to tilt to the right again.

"Oops!"

Alex suddenly remembered that this was not his Barbatos.

And contrary to the gravity situation like Gnaku, Astaru tilts to the right after using the thruster in space.

He immediately reduced the right thruster and slightly increased the output power of the left thruster.

With his quick correction, Astaru passed by the edge of a piece of debris.

"Huh, it turns out that without using the prosthetic connection system, this machine is much more troublesome to operate than a normal MS."

In fact, what he didn't know was that he was able to get used to operating Astaru in his current state so quickly, which surprised the two members of the Changsheng Gang, Didi and Woco.

"As expected of a man who can control Barbatos, he really has two skills."

Woko did not refute Deidi's compliment.

After all, as the person who knows Astaru best, he is very aware of the current physical condition.

How difficult is it to operate this machine without the use of prosthetic connectors?

For ordinary people, not to mention fighting with it, they would fall down even while walking normally.

Therefore, in the underground Gnaku of the Eternal Life Gang, Astaru looked like he was half-kneeling on the ground, and there were a few chains hanging the body up in a handsome pose.

In fact, it is due to the imbalance between the left and right. In order to avoid problems with the control system of the body's legs and feet caused by standing for a long time, the body can only be hung in this position.

Originally, he thought that before getting back Astaru's outer armor, this machine could only be driven by prosthetic users like Didi under its current circumstances.

But the appearance of Alex broke his idea.

"Didi, I have a suggestion."

"what?"

"Now that we are online, can we order new MS outer armor from Divas through Tekkadan?"

"Well, that's a good suggestion."

Alex, who still didn't know that the two members of the Changsheng Gang were discussing him, got familiar with Astaru's operations.

I gave up the idea of ​​taking the machine for a spin. After all, I felt like driving a car with a crooked front wheel on the highway.

This experience was uncomfortable, so he flew straight to the meeting point of Mikazuki and Xino.

Because he was worried that he would lose control and crash into the wreckage.

So I drive very carefully, which is much more tiring than driving a Barbatos.

When he arrived at the meeting point, Mikazuki and Xino were stunned when they saw him actually driving this machine.

"Captain, wasn't Barbatos not beaten to pieces?"

This is Mikazuki's question.

Sino is more direct.

"Captain, you finally couldn't help but steal the Changsheng Gang's body?"

Chapter 89

"No, am I that kind of person!"

In response to Alex's righteous answer, Xino nodded subconsciously on the screen.

He immediately realized what he was doing and shook his head.

"No, it's not."

"Tsk, you kid."

Alex reached out and made a head-splitting movement towards Xino on the screen.

"Hey hey hey."

Xino could only respond to him with a silly smile.

"Barbatos is under maintenance, so there is no propellant. Gusin wants to leave a protective ship, and you are urging me too urgently, so I can only borrow this aircraft body from the Changsheng Gang to take a look."

After briefly explaining the reason, he looked at the two of them.

"Then, can any of you two explain what is going on and why it is so mysterious?"

"We found the wreckage of a transport spacecraft. It seems to belong to Gallarhorn. It should look like something good."

Mikazuki said to him directly without any concealment.

"Gallalhorn's transport ship? Is there something on it?"

Alex quickly realized that they had picked up something. In Jagged's worldview, picking up things was the most common manipulation.

"Yes, but it looks very old, and we are not sure whether the things inside can be used, so we plan to ask you, the leader, to take a look."

"I see."

He understood the purpose of the two people coming to him. To put it bluntly, it was to open the box.

"But there's no need to be so mysterious."

"It was my idea."

Xino said with joy.

"Captain, what if there is a complete machine inside? It's like what's said in treasure hunt stories. If it's not mysterious, it won't have a sense of ritual."

"Well, I hope that's what you said."

Alex felt as if his heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Galilhorn, transport ship, Gundam...

Plus his unfinished search mission.

"Could it be that this guy Xino really got it right?"

As the two flew towards their destination, Alex murmured to himself.

Thinking about it this way, he felt a little nervous.

After all, in the iron-blooded world view, it is not unprecedented to pick up a machine body from the wreckage zone.

Wasn't Gu Xing the one who moved through multiple pirate groups after being discovered in the wreckage zone?

So when Astaru followed the transformation of two Grazes and passed by a huge asteroid wreckage, he saw the transport ship with the mottled horn emblem.

Alex's eyes lit up because the appearance of this transport ship was very complete.

Apart from the marks of being hit by various debris, there were no signs of invasion.

Maybe, there’s really good stuff in there!

Controlling the machine body, he cautiously approached the transport ship, which looked quite old. Although Alex was a little excited, he still maintained a minimum of vigilance.

He ordered the two of them.

"Xino, Mikazuki, please pay attention to your surroundings. I will board the ship to take a look."

"clear."

The two Graze Kai immediately turned around and flew outward for a short distance to alert the surroundings.

After carefully maneuvering Astaru onto the transport ship, Alex confirmed that his pilot suit was sealed and took out the weapons he carried with him.

He left the cockpit and used the single propeller to fly over carefully.

After getting on the hull, Alex looked at the location of the hatch on the hull.

The hatch that was supposed to be sealed was now gone, leaving only a dark hole.

However, judging from the position of the remaining door shaft parts, the cabin should have been open at that time, or not even closed.

This made Alex feel a little strange.

"Did this ship get blown up along with the moon on the ground?"

Cautiously leaning against the cabin door, Alex threw a lighted glow stick into the cabin.

With the help of floating fluorescent stick lighting, he could barely see what was going on in the cabin aisle.

Except for some floating debris, there are no corpses, and the passage can be said to be clean.

Then after throwing a few more glow sticks inside, he carefully raised his gun and floated into the cabin.
