The Orb army dispatched a fleet, with the flagship Jianyu Thor.
Two young men wearing Orb Army uniforms were pushing and shoving at the door of the cafeteria.
"Thor, don't push me."
The young man in the eyes who was pushed quietly scolded his friend behind him in a low voice.
"Now that things have happened, you should be bold enough to go forward. This is a rare opportunity, Sai!"
Thor pushed his friend while cheering him on.
In the end, Sai could not resist his friend's strength and was pushed into the cafeteria.
His expression was a little flustered, but his eyes quickly locked onto the girl eating in the corner of the cafeteria. The girl was wearing a Union Army uniform that was incompatible with the surrounding Orb uniforms.
For a moment, he had mixed feelings.
He really didn't expect that he would reunite with Frey in this way. He followed the fleet as Orb's pilot, and Frey actually became the liaison officer jointly dispatched to the Orb fleet.
"I really can't stand you!"
Seeing Sai standing there motionless, Thor simply pulled Sai towards Fleur who was dining, and said hello: "Hey, Fleur, it's been a long time, let's have lunch together."
Hearing Thor's voice, Fleur raised her head during the meal and saw her ex-boyfriend Se and Thor, her companion on the Archangel.
"Long time no see, Thor."
She stood up with a smile and said hello, her expression gentle and friendly, not as embarrassed as Sai.
"Well... long time no see."
Sai said hello stiffly, and then Thor forced him into the seat opposite Fleur.
"Sai, you should be eating salmon as usual. Then I'll go over there and line up to get the food. You two can talk first."
Thor said, leaving Sai who was a little at a loss, and went straight to the dining table to receive the meal, leaving the two of them in an awkward atmosphere.
"I didn't expect you to become a liaison officer..."
"I didn't expect you to be in this fleet..."
After a moment of silence, they both spoke at the same time, but stopped at the same time.
Looking at each other and smiling, the originally awkward atmosphere eased a lot, and Sai made a gesture of invitation, "You go ahead and speak."
"You are still such a gentleman." Fleur smiled and praised her ex-boyfriend, and then talked about some of her experiences after leaving Orb.
For example, with the help of his father's old friends, he obtained an official position, participated in the negotiation and signing of Orb's participation in the Earth Security Agreement, and now became a liaison officer and was dispatched to the Orb expedition fleet.
She didn't say much about her experience of meeting Li Boyong and learning the inside story of the Dharma Law Conference from Li Boyong and Wang Liumei.
"So that's it." Sai felt a little emotional for a moment.
"What about you?" Fleur asked.
Sai also briefly talked about his experience after Frey left. Frey already knew about his joining the Orb army when he was in Orb.
It mainly briefly talked about some of Fleur's experiences after leaving, but this experience was inevitably a bit boring. Apart from becoming Murasame's pilot, there was nothing interesting about it.
"It seems that you are doing well, I am happy for you." Fleur did not feel bored, but listened patiently and gave her own evaluation.
When Zai Sai decided to join the Orb Army, she did not make any comments. Because she knew the impact the original knot had on Sai, she was not qualified to make irresponsible remarks.
So this time, Fleur also avoided this topic and did not pretend to express concern for her friend who was about to set foot on the battlefield.
"Hey, how was the chat?"
At this time, Thor came back with two lunches.
For ex-boyfriends and girlfriends who have reunited after a long absence, just give them some space to be alone. If it lasts too long, it will be a bit embarrassing.
Thor felt that he had timed it well, although he joined in the conversation and talked about some topics about other companions.
When the three reunited, the Orb fleet was still sailing north along the east coast of Africa, heading for Suez.
On the other side, Li Boyong was ready to meet with the Archangel.
In the hangar of the USS Jones, Li Boyong was making final preparations before the attack.
"Colonel, the debugging of the new machine body is almost completed, but there may still be flaws, so you must pay attention to them."
Listening to the maintenance squad leader's chatter, Li Boyong looked at the new machine Wang Liumei gave him.
GAT-X370FG, fully equipped Plunder Gundam.
The prototype of this aircraft uses the second batch of G-series improved aircraft in the Actaion Project, the successor of the Predator Gundam - the Orange Predator Gundam. Based on Li Boyong's combat data, a redesigned backpack that is extremely suitable for Li Boyong's fighting style is added. A redesigned variable body after being equipped.
The modified machine uses conventional energy and is equipped with VPS armor.
The weapons are a 100MM beam cannon at the mouth and 80MM cannons on both sides of the head.
The quadruple dual-beam and dual-live-ammunition shield cannon originally equipped on the right hand was removed and replaced with a more lightweight handheld 75MM high-power beam rifle.
The left-hand super spherical crusher was also cancelled, replaced by an MA head anti-beam shield, and two beam sabers were installed on the waist.
The two 115MM railguns on the back flying assembly are retained, but the two 105MM cannons in the MA form are canceled and replaced with two ship-killing knives.
As for the fighting claw in MS form and the short-range plasma cannon on the fighting claw, they have also been removed.
Generally speaking, this fully equipped Plunder Gundam has weaker firepower than the orange Plunder Gundam, but it has correspondingly improved maneuverability and combat operability, and increased combat duration by reducing energy consumption.
It can be said that the machine body is more balanced in performance than the original one, and there are no weird weapons.
"A good machine body." This was the conclusion Li Boyong came to, but he was not completely satisfied. "It's a pity that it lacks a 320MM ultra-high pulse cannon, otherwise it would be even more perfect."
"Don't be ridiculous, Colonel." Hearing Li Boyong's comment, the maintenance squad leader said with a wry smile: "The flight pack on the back of the aircraft still has room to put something like that."
"Haha, I am indeed greedy." Li Boyong laughed and said no more.
Li Boyong took Mirialia aboard the full-suit plunder. After notifying the bridge and the adjutant that he was going to perform a special mission alone, and temporarily entrusting the command of the fleet, he drove the aircraft away from the USS Jones aircraft carrier.
Relying on a total of eight power nozzles on its legs, the fully equipped Plunder successfully took off in MS form. Then, under the control of Li Boyong, the body transformed into MA form and flew towards the agreed-upon location.
About thirty minutes later, Li Boyong arrived at the target location, a small island in the Mediterranean Sea.
He saw the half-kneeling Liberty Gundam on the isolated island and Murasame in the form of a similarly half-kneeling MS. He controlled it to transform back into the MS form, and then slowly landed on the island.
The machine landed slowly, and through the external monitor, Li Boyong clearly saw Natal Baji Lulu in the crowd, wearing an Orb uniform.
