Gundam Super G Universe

Chapter 115 Brad and Char Met a Ghost

Haman announced that he would take Red and the others to meet Minerva Lao Zabi first. Red didn't care about this. After all, Minerva was still a little girl who knew nothing, and he was not Brado, who had to take care of a child in the mothership every day.

But Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew still wanted to meet the old leader's daughter, so the three of them, who had been expressionless and disdainful when Red and Harman were talking, suddenly became interested.

Harman saw everything. Red was a new human like himself, and although they were attracted to each other, they were also wary of each other. When experienced new humans met, both sides would be careful of each other's mind reading, so Harman was not surprised that Red's mood did not change much.

But the attitude of the Black Tristars is still easy to understand. Even if Harman is not a new human, he can tell from their micro-expressions that the three of them still care about Minerva.

As the door opened, Red and the other four could also see the scene inside.

This is a huge space that can serve as a hangar. Based on the ancient European royal court, an ancient European king's audience hall was built inside the ship. There are even cranes flying in the room.

Red still gave the same evaluation. To pull off this trick in a huge mothership, either the person is really rich enough to squander his wealth at will, or he has no chance of survival.

At this moment, looking at Minerva Lao Zabi sitting upright on the most conspicuous throne in the hall, Red felt that she was very pitiful, a nine-year-old girl, still in elementary school, sitting in this place. Now, this throne is like her seat in the classroom.

And around this seat, that is, the edge of the hall, there were soldiers wearing Zeon military uniforms.

It's a pity that none of these soldiers might truly submit to Minerva Lao Zabi. All of them were looking at the girl's academy teacher at this time, putting a lot of pressure on her.

Red didn't need to explain this, Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew could see it. Red could feel that their anger was accumulating after the door was opened.

As Haman led the way and approached Minerva Lao Zabi, Red and the other four could see that she was suppressing her trembling of fear.

Because the momentum of Red and his four companions was quite strong. After all, all five of them had walked out of a battlefield full of corpses and blood.

Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew were already angrily looking for people they knew in the Zeon army. They wanted to beat them up, and they were too disdainful to beat the new recruits here, so they had to beat the old ones.

As if he hadn't noticed the change in the mood of the five people behind him, Harman entered into performance mode and turned around to formally declare:

"This is the legitimate heir of the Zabi family, His Highness Minerva Rao Zabi."

As Harman spoke, Minerva obviously reflexively entered the performance mode. Her body stopped shaking instantly, and she called the maid next to her and whispered something.

This was obviously a trick to prevent Minerva from being asked questions directly and having unprepared lines. Everything was relayed by others so that Minerva would not be confused by the questions and show a scared expression.

So, after the servant came to Haman and whispered a few words, Haman loudly declared:

"Minerva-sama said she is happy to welcome back the heroes of Zeon."

Red no longer wanted to perform comedy with Harman, so he walked slowly towards Minerva and said
"I want to verify my identity. You know the nature of my previous job (the captain of a secret special forces unit assigned by the system)."

As Red walked forward, the soldiers behind Harman were about to raise their guns, but Harman stopped them. She believed that Red would not do something irrational in public. Besides, it was okay to deceive other people about Minerva's situation, but it was a bit funny to deceive the person in front of her.

Red walked all the way to about two meters in front of Minerva, and then stopped moving forward. Minerva was already very scared, and Red didn't want to really scare the little girl to tears.

After pretending to look at it carefully, Red turned around and said

"It's His Highness Minerva Rao Zabi."

As Red spoke, he quietly gave Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew a gesture to let them play freely.

The three men decisively stopped acting after receiving the order. They had already found the person to question, and simply ignored Haman, and walked towards the Neo Zeon officers who were watching on the side with great momentum.

Seeing these three men approaching aggressively, the Neo Zeon recruits instinctively wanted to raise their guns.

But the old men around the new recruits simply pressed down their guns and watched the Black Tri-Stars approach with a smile.

Gaia took the lead at this time, grabbed an officer by the collar and brought him in front of him, yelling

"I know you. You were a guard of honor in Dozle Zabi-sama's personal guard. Tell me, what's going on with Her Highness Minerva? What made you let her sit in that position when she was only nine years old? Are you worthy of being promoted by Dozle Zabi-sama? Ah!!"

Unlike the original story where Char got so angry that he attacked, a group of Neo Zeon people held Char down. Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew were almost about to actually attack someone, but the old Zeon soldiers around them still suppressed the recruits' thoughts of attacking.

Because to them, Char was a traitor who joined the Earth Federation, while Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew were their own people, and these veterans could understand their anger.

However, Red would not let Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew really have a big fight in the hall. Now he just wanted these three to play the good guy and he would play the bad guy.

So when Gaia was about to hit someone, Red spoke up.
"Gaia, Ortega, Matthew, the three of you, don't fight in front of the children! The people here have traveled to Axis, where resources are scarce. In that place, everyone needs to play a role in exchange for a chance to survive.

This is also true for His Highness Minerva. Having lost the protection of his parents and all the elders, it is already a good job to play the role of a spiritual totem. "

After that, Red turned to Harman and said
"Even though I just said that, Ms. Hamman, I don't think your arrangement with Her Highness Minerva is reasonable. But considering that you are the same, shouldering the responsibility of the entire Axis when you were a teenager, I won't blame you. After all, I gave up everything in Zeon and established a mercenary group to keep some old brothers together."

Red's words were indeed meant to improve Harman's favorability. After all, being defiant was part of it, but he couldn't let her feel that he was completely out of control. The balance in between was very delicate, and Red was also testing it at this time.

However, Red did not expect that his words were actually too harsh. Only Harman herself knew the pressure in her heart, so she was easily emotional and yandere. This was all caused by the pressure on her body that was not something she could bear at her age.

Therefore, Red's recognition now can be said to have touched Harman's softest heart, and her favorability towards him instantly increased, because she felt that Red was a person who could understand her difficulties, rather than a bastard who would come up and question and find fault in a condescending manner.

So Harman smiled sincerely and replied:

"I am very pleased that you can understand my difficulties, Colonel Reid. So I personally hope that you can return. I believe that by then, Her Highness Minerva's situation and pressure will be much less."

Red still did not intend to respond directly to Harman's solicitation, but said
"I understand, but I'm not going to change my mind. In this war, let's show each other our strengths. Harman, you don't have to perform better than us. After all, the environments we developed in are very different.

But don't expect me to stay if you perform poorly. Most of my men have died once before and are still alive today. I don't want them to die again because of other people's stupidity. This is my responsibility."

There was nothing wrong with what Red said. Neither Haman nor the Neo Zeon officers around him showed any dissatisfaction. This was the decision a leader should make. Now the Zabi family revivalists in Axis were considering whether to add Red to the list of future Neo Zeon leaders. After all, based on his performance this time, Colonel Red seemed to be more mature and reliable than Haman, and he also had powerful old Zeon soldiers under him.

Moreover, the Zabi family revivalists have already made a simple analysis of the machine driven by Red and his five companions. Although the cockpit cannot be opened, the armor seems to be a new material with extremely strong performance. This proves that Colonel Red actually has strong research and development capabilities. The people who came today may just be the tip of the iceberg of his organization.

Harman had decided to take things slow, so he walked up to Red confidently and said,

"I think I can conquer you. It just so happens that Augu has sent someone to look for me. Do you want to go and see the messenger together and see how I deal with external things first?"

Reid had no objection to this and said to the Black Tri-Stars

"Gaia, Ortega, Matthew, go back to the ship and get some pudding and juice. Ask Angie directly. She brought some over. Give it to Her Highness Minerva. The little girl should like these things.

Then bring Dr. Lei along as well, he has a close relationship with the people of Augu."

Gaia, Ortega and Matthew naturally had no objection. Gaia replied, "Yes, boss," and left with his two brothers.

The Neo Zeon officers would not stop the three men, and Red followed Haman to meet Camus.

Hamman brought Minerva to perform this comeback drama in this space with clear purposes. First, he wanted to absorb the remnants of the old Zeon who were still active in the Earth's circle; second, he wanted to attract the attention of the Titans and AEUG, who were already at their wits' end.

Haman wants to play both sides to create conditions for the return of Neo Zeon and Axis.

So she never thought of rejecting Aug's meeting, and took Red to meet Camus in a small room in the hangar.

After receiving the initial conditions given by Augu, Harman smiled and said
"Okay, I understand, but your delegation doesn't need to come. I will go directly to the Argama for the talks."

At this moment, Harman's tone was so gentle that Camus was stunned. He said that he remembered that this man was not like this the last time they met.

Harman obviously sensed Camus's confusion, and Red was right behind her. She didn't want Red to think that she was a mean person in front of others, so she took the initiative to explain.
"You don't have to be like this. I'm not an arrogant person. I will treat you politely in a normal meeting."

Seeing that his task was completed so easily, Camus felt a lot more relaxed. He took the initiative to say that he would wait on the deck and then left.

At this time, Harman's confidant saw Camus leave and directly reminded him
"Lord Harman, isn't this too risky?"

In response to this question, Harman looked at Reid and smiled.
"With Colonel Reid here, I think my safety can be guaranteed."

Red said this was a good opportunity to watch the show, and since Harman was the leader of the camp, Red would not let her fall easily, so he replied calmly.
"Of course. After all, I choose to stand on your side in this war. There is no such thing as losing the commander before the war even starts. I will ensure your safe return."

Harman likes men who are confident and not overbearing, so she said to her confidant

"You heard me, Colonel Red will protect me. I believe in his ability as a former commander of a secret special forces unit."

Since Haman said so, his confidants naturally had nothing to say.

After waiting for the Black Tri-Stars to return with Dessert and Tim Ray, Haman announced his departure.

Cabini flew in the first group, Red and his five companions flew in the second group, and there were eight Gaza C guards around them.

However, since Red was following him this time, Harman did not try to do such dangerous moves as flying close to the bridge, so as not to make Red feel childish. Instead, he honestly entered the hangar.

However, due to the large number of machines, the hangar of the Argama obviously could not stop. So except for Red's Secret Thunder and Haman's Cabini, everyone else's machines could only stop on the flight decks on the left and right sides of the Argama, and then float into the hangar.

After everyone regrouped, Red, Harman and his party, led by Camus, headed to the bridge for talks.

However, as soon as Red and his companions entered the bridge, Char, who was using the alias of Kovatro Bajina, immediately took off his glasses, and his eyes almost popped out, and he said in a lost voice as if he had seen a ghost.

"Gaia! Ortega! Matthew! Are you three still alive??"

The captain of the Argama, Brad Noa, had the same reaction as Char. He also thought he had seen a ghost and shouted:
"Dr. Tim Ray, you... you're not dead?"

With these two people yelling, the conversation naturally went off topic.

Gaia, Ortega, and Matthew all looked nostalgic when they saw Char. They didn't know that Char had contributed a lot to the destruction of old Zeon, so they surrounded him in a friendly manner, patted Char on the shoulder and said hello.
"Major Char, it's been a long time since we last met. You finally took off your mask. It's worth it for us to get out of hell and see our old friend again."

At the same time, Tim Ray also walked towards Captain Bradley. He knew Bradley, after all, they had met when developing the RX-78. Later, his son still worked under this man.

So Tim Ray also came out and held out his hand.
"Lieutenant Brado, no, now Captain Brado. Although things are complicated, I am not a ghost. I just have to hide and cannot show up. By the way, do you know anything about Amuro? Is he okay?"

After Captain Bradley shook hands with Tim Ray, he could only admit that the person in front of him was indeed alive. He said that there seemed to be a hidden story behind Tim Ray's death. He was almost scared to death just now.

So Captain Bradley said as if he had met an old friend.

"Dr. Tim Ray, it's been a long time. No, I should say that seeing you alive is the best thing that has happened during this period. Amuro is on Earth, he is doing well, and he is also a member of the AEUG now."

Tim Ray smiled with relief when he received the news that Amuro was safe, and without saying anything more, he shook hands and returned behind Red.

Seeing that Tim Ray had gone back, the Black Tri-Stars ignored Char who was still confused and turned back behind Red.

In doing so, Red attracted the attention of everyone on the bridge of the Argama.

Red said, "Why are you all looking at me? I'm just here to watch the show." But the people on the other side were obviously waiting for him to speak, so he could only say

"Don't look at me. Miss Hamman is the one you want to discuss this with. She is the leader of Neo Zeon. My team and I are just bodyguards right now."

After saying that, Red took a step back and moved away from Harman to her side and behind.
