An advanced guide for experienced modelers, from building blocks to hand-building Gundams

"...I still get scared." Kaz scratched his head, feeling a little ashamed. "Every time I see those enemies with weapons drawn and standing right in front of me, even if they don't notice me, I get scared and want to run away..."

"That's normal, Kaz." Frey sighed, recalling the scene when she landed on Earth. "When I saw that anti-ship missile flying in front of me when I landed on Earth, I was so scared that I couldn't walk."

"But, Kaz, I saw something online." Frey gave Kaz a thumbs-up. "So-called courage is actually a form of fear. It's like being so scared that it forces your body to act... Maybe that's what it means?"

"...Ha, if I could move..." Kaz wanted to say something, but suddenly there was a scream of surprise from the crowd.

A mobile suit carrying a mobile suit flew over them, stirring up a fierce gust of wind. As it passed a hillside not far away, a purple mobile suit jumped off the mobile suit and landed on the hillside.

Although the barrel of the purple giant's gun on his left shoulder was cut open, causing him to stagger as if he had hit a trip wire when he landed, he quickly adjusted his center and fired at the nearest M1 Heretic.

The remaining M1 Heretics quickly surrounded the mobile suit, continuously firing at it. However, the difference in pilot skills and the performance of the mobile suit meant they were quickly defeated and exploded into pieces.

One of the M1 Heretic's head-mounted monitors was blown to the side of the highway. The violent impact and noise caused panic among the crowd.

"Is that... an Earth Army mobile suit?" Seeing the situation before him, Kaz swallowed subconsciously. "How did it get dropped here?!"

"It looks like they're planning to penetrate behind enemy lines and then outflank the defenses." George, who had spent some time in the Eighth Fleet searching for Frey, had a basic understanding of tactics. "Don't worry, their target must be the mass accelerator. And since we're so many here, they won't dare fire at us."

Just now, George just chatted with Kaz's parents for a few minutes and roughly understood the current situation. There is no doubt that Orb, which has almost no strategic depth, will definitely not be able to withstand the attack of the Earth Army.

But was he going to be defeated like this and give up the mass accelerator? That didn't seem like the character of the "old lion"...

"Wait... wait! There are still people on that mountain!" At this time, Kaz saw four figures on the hillside running towards the mass accelerator.

It seemed that the pilot of one of the M1 Heretics also discovered the figure running towards the mass accelerator on the hillside, and decisively gave up relying on the terrain to deal with the Earth Army's G-Force, and instead rushed towards the G-Force.

"Wait! Muzzle! His muzzle is..." It seemed to be a passive ability brought by Kaz's strong desire to survive. He noticed the direction of the beam muzzle in Calamity's hand.

If we follow that position... we will definitely hit those people.

As expected, with the firing of two beams, the M1 Heretic was undoubtedly destroyed. However, the storm stirred up by the other explosion affected the four figures.

One of the people, dressed in white, was blown away and rolled down the hill.

"Kaz, don't go over there. There's nothing we can do right now!" Even though they already knew their son's personality, Kaz's parents tried to dissuade him. "All we can do now is watch. Leave the rest to the army."

...Do you really want to just watch like this?

Kaz once again questioned himself in his heart.

Watching Kira fight in pain, watching his companions fight on the battlefield, watching the young man in front of him lose his family... It seemed that he had been watching all the time, looking for the safest corner like a coward.

The name of a strong man... Mr. Ross, how can a coward like me be a strong man?

"There are things you can do..."

"Like a man..."

But I'm so scared, that guy, that Earth Army mobile suit, he's still there! My legs are a little weak...

If only the place where he fell was closer to here... so I could pull him over...

Closer... Closer...

Unconsciously, in the chaos of the crowd, Kaz approached the highway fence, and his hands were gripping the fence so hard that they turned white.

"...Bravery is actually a form of fear."

so afraid……

Subconsciously, Kaz put down the luggage in his hands and crossed the fence.

"Kaz! Come back soon!" At this time, Frey noticed Kaz running towards the young man in white.

I was so scared...really scared. My legs were so weak that I could hardly feel them.

But ah, why...

"Why? My body ran out subconsciously, ahhh!" Kaz shouted, venting his fear.

Yes... now he probably knows what he is afraid of.

He was not afraid of the vicious enemy, he was just afraid of the loss of life, his own life, the lives of his companions... even the life of a stranger in front of him.

Looking at the giant-like MS in front of him, which cast its gaze at the young man in white clothes and himself, Kaz felt that his heart was about to stop beating out of fear.

Suddenly, a streak of red light fell from the sky.

The purple MS that was originally showing off its might had its only remaining weapons cut off in an instant. In Kaz's eyes, the slightly evil head monitor was also split in half horizontally.

"Narrator!" Kaz, who had been cursing himself for his sudden rush of passion, suddenly saw the familiar machine before him. "Mr. Ross?!"

Although he didn't know why, the Narrative Gundam's armor turned red again, but a sense of security suddenly surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

Then, he watched as the narrator quickly pierced the cockpit of the purple "giant" with his beam saber until the battery pack had problems and began to emit dazzling, firework-like flames.

Kaz gritted his teeth and ran to the young man in white who was staring at the narration of Gundam in a daze.

"Don't just stand there! That mobile suit's battery is about to explode! Go!"

……

Shin Asuka felt that everything today was terrible.

In the past, he was just an ordinary adjuster, living an ordinary and dull life in Orb with his parents and sister. But everything changed after the war between the Earth Army and ZAFT.

First the atmosphere became tense, then Orb issued an evacuation notice, and the Earth Army attacked Orb... Now even his beloved family members were killed by the Earth Army.

Anger, an anger so hot that it was about to burn the bird to ashes, surged from the depths of his heart.

"Ge...Brother...it hurts..." In Fei Niao's arms, the petite body that no longer resembles a human was crying out with the last bit of strength it had.

"Mayu, it's okay, breathe, breathe, keep breathing... You will be fine, don't sleep, okay..." Asuka's right hand was holding Mayu's cell phone tightly, and it was even trembling a little.

Fei Niao raised his head and looked at the arrogant purple "giant" in front of him. The hatred in his eyes was almost condensed into substance.

"Kill you... kill you... absolutely, kill you all!"

Just when this purple "giant" was about to wipe out the enemy completely, another white "giant" with a red stream of light rushed into the battlefield.

The purple "giant" clearly had Orb's M1 Heretic at his fingertips, but when faced with the attack of the white "giant" in front of him, he seemed as weak as a child.

The evil spirit's head was severed, its weapons destroyed, until the white "giant" pierced the purple giant's cockpit with its beam saber. As if the evil spirit contained within had died, dissipating into golden particles of light, the chest pierced by the white "giant" erupted with sparks like fireworks.

In the firelight, the white "giant" turned around and looked down at the earth, as if feeling sad for what had just happened.

Asuka looked at the face of the white "giant" and couldn't help but be stunned.

Suddenly, Asuka felt a strong tap on his shoulder.

"Don't just stand there! That mobile suit's battery is about to explode! Go!"

……

"Move aside, move aside!"

Just when everyone was focused on the disaster, Kaz rushed out, making the hearts of Kaz's family and Frey's family almost lift. Kaz's mother almost fainted.

But with the entrance of the Narrative Gundam, the story ended without incident. The Disaster didn't explode, but simply fell to the ground with a burst of fireworks.

However, the sharp-eyed Frey saw the young man beside Kaz and the bloody figure in his arms, whose limbs were twisted and broken.

Suppressing the panic in her heart, Frey subconsciously took out the clothes from her backpack and placed them on the ground.

"Put her here quickly!" Seeing that the blood-stained young man held a seriously injured and dying girl in his arms, Frey heaved a sigh of relief and gritted her teeth.

He breathed a sigh of relief because his clothes were just enough to cushion the seriously injured little girl and prevent her from touching the ground.

At this time, the girl's condition was not optimistic. To be honest, even if Frey served as a medic on the Archangel, she was not sure she could save the girl's life.

"Bandage...bandage..." The situation was urgent, and Frey took out the medical alcohol and bandages from her backpack, which were things she usually carried with her.

"Ambulance! How long until the ambulance arrives?!"

"Two minutes, two more minutes!" Kaz's father called an ambulance after seeing that there were seriously injured people.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! There are seriously injured people here! Don't block the ambulance's passage!" George was already shouting loudly at this time, trying to clear an emergency passage in the chaotic crowd for the ambulance to pass through.

"Mayu... Mayu... Two more minutes, two more minutes... Don't sleep, okay? Please, don't sleep..." Fei Niao, covered in blood, stroked Mayu's bloody face with trembling hands, and his tone seemed to be begging the girl named Mayu to live.

"It will hurt! Bear with it!" Looking at the wound in front of her where the bones were exposed, Frey frowned and poured alcohol on it.

Normally, the wound should be cleaned first, but there is not much time and conditions now. Everyone is racing against death, and saving the girl's life is the first priority.

"Brother...it hurts..." The girl, who had felt numb all over her body, seemed to be stimulated by the alcohol and became a little more sober.

Looking at the miserable state of his sister, Fei Niao felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife, and the blazing flames seemed to burst out from the cracks.

Fulei moved quickly, and the girl's broken limbs and wounds were wrapped in gauze, temporarily stopping the bleeding.

At this moment, a shrill sound was heard and a white ambulance stopped in front of them.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please leave the rest to us!" Two figures wearing bulletproof vests jumped out of the car and carried away the girl wrapped in bandages and the young man in white covered in blood on a stretcher.

When Fulei looked at her bloody hands and her blood-soaked dress, a sense of "unreality" rose from the bottom of her heart.

"You did it, you saved a life, I'm proud of you, Fleur." George, sweating profusely, reached out and wiped the blood off Fleur's face with his sleeve, not caring at all that his expensive suit became dirty.

"Yes... I did it... This is what I can do..." Fleur raised her head and looked at George. "Dad, shouldn't you be angry and watch them die? They are obviously adjusters..."

"But before this, they were all human." George stopped Frey and placed his hands on her shoulders. "This is a truth I finally understood after being assassinated by a natural person, protected by an adjuster, and finally resigned from my position. I pondered it for a long time."

"Besides, if you want to save her, it's your decision." George looked into Fulei's eyes. "Dad will always support you."

"I see..." Frey sighed, "Just now...Kaz was so brave."

"Yeah, he immediately ran out to grab people, and we couldn't stop him..." George sighed, "It seems like he has grown up a little..."

Fulei didn't say anything, but just quietly looked at the completely empty bottle of medical alcohol in her hand.

"Dad..." Fleur raised her head and looked at George. "I saved someone... I'm very happy."

"But...even if I become a doctor, there's a limit to how many people I can save."

"...What do you want to say?" George was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't quite understand what Frey was thinking.

"Please teach me how to save more people." Fulei's eyes were firm, as if she had already decided on her next path. "You know what I'm talking about, right, Dad?"

George looked at Fleur in front of him with a dazed look in his eyes, as if he saw his past self.

As a former civil servant, George is very worldly-wise. How come he can't understand what his daughter wants to do?

After thinking for a while, George sighed.

"...I understand, but you don't have to copy what I teach you, Fleur. Remember to have your own ideas."

In an instant, George straightened his back. Even though his expensive suit was stained with blood, he looked taller, as if the Atlantic affairs officer of the past had returned.

"Dad will always support you."

"……Um."

PS: Today’s update.

This chapter mainly attempts to shape Kaz and write about Frey's changes.

In my opinion, the character of Kaz could have been further developed. It's a pity that he was just like everyone else in the movie when everyone else had changed.

Obviously, if we could just portray Kaz's outburst of fear, he might become a vivid character, but perhaps due to the length of the story, his character remains "cowardly".

So I tried it myself. Uh... maybe the character design is a little off? But for a secondary creation, this kind of supporting role is the most suitable. From a small perspective, describing people's feelings when seeing MS is also a unique experience... maybe?

Volume 70: Chapter : Part-time Worker Asuka: Just Wants to Make Money

“Olga!!!”

Watching the disaster being destroyed in front of his eyes, Krot's eyes widened and his expression was a little stunned.

Although on the surface, the three of them disliked each other and were almost on the verge of fighting, the relationship between them was still good.

After all, they came out of the pile of corpses in the laboratory together, so there must be some feelings between them.

"Ahem... um..." Just as Krot was still thinking about revenge for Olga, he felt obvious discomfort in his body. Some kind of withdrawal suddenly came over him, causing his thinking to be interrupted in an instant.

"...Damn it!!" In the end, he could only curse while fleeing under the cover of his dagger under the shooting of freedom and justice.

"Tsk..."

Murtagh, aboard the Earth Fleet's flagship, frowned as he watched the battle unfold. Clearly, the combined assault of the Enhanced Human and Wetware forces on Orb had yielded disappointing results.

"The situation is very unfavorable right now. What are your suggestions, Councillor Azrael?" The captain of the flagship could clearly see the situation had become a stalemate. The enemy had two specialized aircraft and their ace pilots, while one of their own had been destroyed and two had been crippled. In this situation, retreat and regrouping were the best options. "I suggest retreating and awaiting the arrival of the supporting fleet before launching another attack."
