Gundam SEED: Eastern Enlightenment

Chapter 54 The Unstoppable War

Lin Chu thought about it and decided to make a copy of the OS system that he had seen Kira adjust on the assault and gave it to Simmons. After all, there would be good things in Orb in the future, and it would be justified to get them for free then.

This OS certainly cannot be perfectly adapted to ordinary human pilots, but it can still serve as a reference for Orb. Next, it depends on whether the Archangel can still find refuge in Orb. By then, Kira will be able to design an OS system that is most suitable for human pilots.

Simmons returned to Orb immediately after getting the things. As a neutral country, Orb needed to go back and discuss it with everyone if it wanted to carry out long-term cooperation with East Asia.

Lin Chu was not idle either. Under the guidance of Tian Xin, he came to the wreckage of his duel. There were indeed only fragments left of the duel, with only the cockpit preserved. It would be a bit difficult to reverse engineer the PS armor. It was not that it could not be deduced, but it would take time. Relying on his perfect evolution and talent in mobile suit research and development, Lin Chu began to design a duel dagger based on the duel. The long sword was fine because it could not be used in the cosmic atmosphere.

Lin Chu was sitting in a small office, writing and drawing on the manuscript with pen and paper. Tian Jianshe was sitting beside him. Chen Tian was making tea. Tian Xin was tinkering with heresy downstairs and seemed to like it very much.

This is the center of the entire base. It is a small building. There is a large glass on the second floor through which you can see the panoramic view outside, but you cannot see inside from the outside.

"Boy, do you really not need me to call in a few old professors or teams to help you? There is strength in numbers."

“No need. Research and development is never effective just by having more people. To be honest, I am a genius researcher, so I can do it alone.

General, what you need to do now is to adjust the equipment and personnel as quickly as possible to get the base up and running, and the selection of MS pilots can also begin slowly.

We can also expand this area and use it as a training base for MS in the future."

Lin Chu rejected Tian Jianshe's suggestion, because most of the things he would be able to produce in the future would probably be taken out of the system. If he transferred people over, he would have to think about explaining how they got the information every day, which would be really tiring.

When Tian Jianshe heard Lin Chu say this, he did not continue to talk about transferring people. This would make it seem like he was deliberately placing people there. However, it would take no time to get the base up and running.

"You little brat, it's only the second day! I still have to screen these ordinary people to find the reliable ones, how can it be so fast! The fastest it will take is the day after tomorrow for all the talents to arrive one after another."

Lin Chu thought about it and realized that he was too anxious, so he continued to work hard.

Lin Chu might have been a duel pilot before, or he might have a great talent for system research and development, so he wrote the plan for the duel dagger without feeling it was difficult. The system's research and development talent, as well as the intelligence and learning ability provided by perfect evolution, made Lin Chu feel what cheating was, and it was really enough for him to develop the technology by himself.

"Boy, what are you doing there?"

"I'm designing a mass-production model based on dueling."

"Then don't worry, or come and have some tea with me, that kind of thing doesn't happen that quickly."

"This is the first draft of the mass-production model I designed based on the duel." As soon as Tian Jianshe finished speaking, Lin Chu took the thing over.

Tian Jianshe put down the teacup and took the thing from Lin Chu's hand suspiciously.

The Duel Dagger that Lin Chu had seen in anime before was slightly better than the Assault Dagger in performance, but it was not very outstanding, and its cost-effectiveness was much worse than that of the Assault Dagger, so the Earth Union gave up on further development.

After all, Lin Chu was familiar with Duel before, but not very familiar with Assault, and the Duel Dagger was not very cost-effective. As a machine that can be used in the cosmic atmosphere, it is still acceptable to let the East Asian Republic be the initial transitional machine.

Instead of taking the trouble to develop the Assault Dagger, it would be better to borrow a Windham from the Atlantic Federation to do the reverse later. For now, the Duel Dagger is enough for the East Asian Republic.

In fact, the most important thing for a mass-produced machine is the OS system that is suitable for most ordinary people. Lin Chu has his own ideas about the OS system.

"This thing is so complicated, can our people drive it? Although the performance is greatly improved, you have to consider the fact that the driver is just an ordinary person."

Tian Jianshe expressed his doubt, because Lin Chu added a lot of performance and operability based on the original duel dagger in the anime. It can be said that the duel dagger can be called the modified duel dagger, which is not much different from the duel, but the armor has only been changed to a simple composite armor and a corpse suit armor has been added.

As the deputy chief of staff, Tian Jianshe could still understand the plan of the duel dagger, but he immediately realized that ordinary people might not be able to play it.

"Take a look at this."

"What is that?" Tian Jianshe took it. It was also a white paper proposal with the words "intelligent AI-assisted robot" written on it. When it was opened, it turned out to be a pink spherical robot.

That’s right, Lin Chu directly materialized the talents of the system’s intelligent AI teammates, and the image was Hello. Anyway, Luo can have Xiao 8’s assistance, so why can’t I give everyone on my side a Hello assistance!

At that time, the complex OS will be able to rely on Hello's assistance to exert the body's due combat effectiveness, and the Hello robot that Lin Chu materialized through the system's talent can also drive independently in the absence of the driver!

Hello, Gundam Attack!

However, each Haro that the system manifests is not cheap. To realize true intelligent AI, the internal structure must be sophisticated and expensive. It will not be possible to equip everyone with it in the future. It will only be equipped to special forces with high-performance bodies. Talented drivers can grow better with the help of Haro, and those with low talent can switch to other careers.

Alas, in order to be able to cheat openly in the future, I have to take it out.

"Is this real?"

"of course it's true."

"You are really a genius?" Tian Jianshe looked at Lin Chu with a complicated expression. Could it be that this kid is really a genius?

“I’m different from ordinary people.”

I used to think that this guy had some team, but he hasn't left here in the past few days. He just borrowed a computer and an office in the hospital to work on the Solomon plan.

In order to avoid giving Lin Chu any bad impression, although they took the initiative to avoid him, if Lin Chu contacted the outside world, they would definitely know. After all, the computer and equipment were moved here by themselves, so these should be things in this kid's own mind, and this duel dagger was completed in front of them.

"Okay, I will prepare the equipment and materials needed for these things for you right away." Tian Jianshe realized that he might have really found a treasure. This was not an ace pilot, but a genius scientist.

"Xiao Lin, you are not young anymore, have you ever thought about finding a girlfriend? Alas, it's a pity that my own daughter is like a tomboy, otherwise, how about Chen Tian? You can tell uncle that you can like either one, and it's not impossible to discuss if you like both."

"Uncle Tian!" Chen Tian's face turned red.

"Ah, I'm actually only 20 years old. We'll talk about this later, later."

Lin Chu, who has been a virgin for two lifetimes, felt a little embarrassed. General, look at your identity. Why are you trying to introduce me to something like an old lady?

"Okay, if you like someone, you must tell your uncle and I will make the decision for you."

Lin Chu awkwardly changed the subject, he was not a stud with a harem.

I wonder what's happening with the Archangel now?

Lin Chu estimated that the final battle between the Archangel and the Desert Tiger would be in the next few days. He learned from Simmons that the Atlantic Federation intended to take the initiative. Apart from the time to determine the route of the Archangel and assemble the army and prepare supplies, it should take at least four or five days, but it still needs to be confirmed.

Lin Chu asked Tian Jianshe about the recent major moves of the Atlantic Federation. Lin Chu had looked at the map. ZAFT's Gibraltar base had a strong military force, and the Archangel should still follow the original route. If the Atlantic Federation wanted to avoid ZAFT's sphere of influence and bring back the Archangel, the South China Sea island chain of the East Asian Republic should be the most ideal supply base for the Atlantic Federation's operation. As an ally, they should know something about it.

"We only know that the Atlantic Federation asked us to help prepare some supplies in the South China Sea, but we don't know if the Atlantic Federation has made any major moves recently."

"Then Simmons should be right."

"Is this battleship important?" Tian Jianshe asked Lin Chu curiously.

"The Duel Dagger is now enough as a transitional unit for the East Asian Republic. The only important thing on the Archangel is the PS Armor technology. But the people on the Archangel are my friends after all."

After hearing what Lin Chu said, Tian Jianshe began to think about the Archangel. He had been trying to find a way to create an inseparable bond between Lin Chu and the East Asian Republic. If everyone on the Archangel was Lin Chu's friend, then he would have to help out.

"In that case, how about I talk to the Atlantic Federation and ask them to send a fleet to support us?"

"There's no need for that. Sending a fleet out to fight ZAFT's MS now would be suicide. And if we take the initiative to propose it, it will only alert the Atlantic Federation. Maybe their intelligence department will start paying attention to us. We are too weak now, so we should accumulate strength first." Lin Chu shook his head.

Although Lin Chu said this, there is actually another reason. Lin Chu feels that it is really inconvenient to act with a large force. His own system has developed to the point where he no longer needs logistics and can act independently for a period of time.

It would be more convenient if I act alone, but how do I tell Dongya?

"General Tian, ​​can East Asia send a freighter to take me to the vicinity of North Africa? I want to drive the Heretic to the Archangel myself."

"Isn't this too dangerous?" Tian Jianshe objected a little, but didn't know how to refute. After all, sending a fleet to ZAFT's sphere of influence would be a suicide mission, and he was worried about Lin Chu being alone.

"General, it's okay. I'm an ace pilot. With the heretic here, it's safer for me to go alone. If you can't defeat me, I can run away."

Lin Chu looked at Tian Jianshe with longing eyes. He still had to rely on system tasks to rise. If Dongya really opposed it, he could only sneak away. The Archangel was the main thing.

Tian Jianshe understood that he could not stop Lin Chu, because his side was just a force that Lin Chu had just met, and the other side was Lin Chu's friends.

After thinking for a while, Tian Jianshe agreed to Lin Chu, because Lin Chu had brought a lot of things to him. If he stopped him, it would only make Lin Chu feel resentful. He had to trust him so that Lin Chu could truly recognize him.

"Okay, then I'll give this Heretic to you. Tell me anything you need, and I'll have people prepare it on the merchant ship. I'll send a caravan to cover you, and the caravan will dock at the Equatorial Union. If you can't defeat them, run to join the caravan immediately. The South China Sea Fleet's submarine detachment will also be in the Equatorial Union waters to pick you up."

"Thank you General!"

"Anyway, remember to be safe. If you can't win, come back quickly." Tian Jianshe patted Lin Chu's shoulder and gave him the greatest support he could.

Gibraltar Base

After ZAFT noticed the small moves of the Earth United Atlantic Federation, it immediately began to send small forces to important bases on Earth.

Izak and Diego also brought the Storm Gundam down to the Gibraltar base. White-haired and Diego finally saw Athrun, who had just recovered from his injuries, at the Gibraltar base.

"Hmph, at least he's not dead." Yitzhak saw Aslan and snorted.

"You have already avenged Nicol, don't think too much." Diego patted Aslan's shoulder.

"This time, let's shoot down the ship as well." Baimao said fiercely.

Aslan did not speak, and he was not very excited to hear the news of chasing the Archangel again. He looked a little depressed.

Recalling the news from the Gibraltar base the day before yesterday, Long Legs landed in the North African desert, and the other shuttle landed on the sea near Victoria. After sending people to investigate, they found that all those on board were refugees from the Heliopolis satellite who were taken in by Long Legs. There were adjusters and natural persons, and they had all been sent to Orb.

If we duel, the wreckage has already fallen into the southern waters of the East Asian Republic.

After meeting Yizhak and the others, Aslan continued to return to his dormitory, holding his head in pain and recalling the replay of Nigel's death, as well as the scene of the duel where the machine turned around to protect the shuttle...

Is it about to start again?

war…

In order to achieve absolute suppression, ZAFT continuously invested in cutting-edge Gates machines. Gibraltar began to become noisy. Aslan looked at the busy Gibraltar base in confusion.

In the desert, in the town of Tasiel, Bakilulu took out the compressed biscuits she had on her and gave them to a crying child. Then things got out of control and all the children gathered around her and looked at Bakilulu eagerly.

Bakilulu was a little at a loss for a moment. Seeing this, Maru asked someone to bring some food from the Archangel. Tasiel's food and weapons were burned by the tigers. If they ignored these people, they would not starve to death with the Desert Dawn organization around, but they would at least be hungry for a while, and children could not bear it.

Bakilulu, Mariu and Mu were distributing food to the people. It wasn't much, but it should be enough to last for the next two days. The Archangel had already been fully loaded with supplies from the Eighth Fleet, so it wouldn't hurt to distribute some food to these civilians now.

"I heard that Lieutenant Lin Chu got along very well with those children before." Malu suddenly said as she looked at the gentle expression on Bakilulu's face when she was with the children.

"Ah?" Bakilulu was unable to react for a moment, but then she understood what Mari meant. He was trying to comfort her.

"Is that so?" Looking at the happy children in the town of Tasiel after getting food, Baki Lulu seemed to understand what Lin Chu had done.

At this time, Kira, Cagalli and others also came back. The people who had been clamoring to chase the tiger before "Desert Dawn" stopped talking, because their dead comrades were lying on the stretcher covered with white cloth behind them.

The family members threw themselves on the bodies and cried, some children were at a loss, and some sensible children had hatred in their eyes.

The unstoppable war brings endless suffering.
