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

Fortunately, Arnold's skilled driving skills allowed the Archangel to narrowly avoid the attack area of ​​the ten large beam cannons.

"Huh... good news, the giant MA maker that attacked Orb has been found." Looking at the thrilling scene in front of him, Mu subconsciously tightened his grip on the joystick.

He looked at the three giant MAs with a complicated tone.

"Bad news, we're going to play three of those things."

PS: Today's update

Volume 100: Chapter Unicorn: Take My Beam Magnum!

"While the destruction is buying us time, activate the mobile suit quickly!"

The blue cosmos at the port of Turlington were in chaos, but at least the dagger in the warehouse was able to start up with some effort.

"What about the Findersen Kingdom?! Any news?"

"They say they're gathering troops..."

"Then tell them to hurry up, otherwise this warship will enter their country!"

Although there was only one battleship, the Archangel, and two MSs coming to attack, the Archangel class is now a well-known assault landing ship type in the Earth Army, and its ability to tear through the defense line is unparalleled. These Blue Cosmos have no confidence in maintaining the defense line with this combination.

Compared with the dire situation in the port of Trinton, the troops of the Kingdom of Findersen appeared to be in good order.

On the surface, the Findersen Kingdom cooperated with Blue Cosmos under the pretext of "a country supporting ZAFT's defection", so they openly used the color-changed King and Dean, which was also known to the Earth Army.

Originally, a warehouse in the port of Trinton was filled with daggers provided by the Earth Army to support the Kingdom of Findersen. These daggers had just been transported here to be replaced by the Kingdom of Findersen, but the surprise attack by the Archangel disrupted the plan, and Blue Cosmos had no choice but to activate the daggers in the warehouse to counterattack.

"Huh... there's a sense of danger..."

Unlike his other companions who were excited about the upcoming battle, Shura, who was sitting in the cockpit of the Black Knight, kept a solemn expression.

"Shura, what have you been doing? It's unlike you to be so quiet today." At this moment, a companion's voice came over the communication line, "Shouldn't you be heading to the battlefield right now?"

"Be careful, this is not a robot in the simulation training!" Shura said loudly into the communicator.

"Yes, yes, you are the captain and you have the final say."

"Xula, what a nagging mother."

The nonchalant voices of his companions rang out over the communication line, and the "murderous intent" that Shura felt at this moment seemed to be getting stronger.

"Zizizi... Everyone, the Blue Cosmos in Turlington Harbor seems to be struggling. It's your turn." Orphee's voice came over the communication line. "No matter what, show the invaders the strength of the Findersen Kingdom!"

Ten black knights quickly started up, and a single scarlet eye appeared on their medieval heads.

"Black Knight Squadron, attack!" Shura ordered over the comms, stepping on the pedal. "Don't forget what you've trained!"

……

At this time in the port of Trinton, the three huge MAs seemed to know that the super-large twin beam cannons were of little use to the extremely flexible Archangel. In addition, the most important beam deflection device had not been equipped yet. It was really not sensible to continue to maintain the MA form under the enemy's heavy firepower.

So, they all made the same move in unison.

The waist and legs under the disc-shaped backpack flipped forward and backward, and the huge disc-shaped backpack was unfastened and moved to the back, revealing the... giant MS inside?

"It looks like the giant mobile suit that attacked Orb last time was made here." Seeing the familiar giant style and the large number of beam weapon muzzles on these giant mobile suits, Ross guessed where the Shambro came from.

"Mu, I'll deal with them, you deal with the other machines in Turlington Harbor!"

"Understood, it's target time, Blue Cosmos guys!" Mu skillfully put the crosshairs on a dagger standing at the port and pulled the trigger. "You'll get rid of them quickly, right, Ross?"

The thick beam of light destroyed the Dagger easily. A Dagger that came out of the warehouse behind it happened to catch the beam, and both Daggers were blown into pieces on the ground.

"Honestly, I don't know." Ross pushed the joystick and flew towards the three Destroyers in the air. "Rather, we're facing the Blue Cosmos in the port of Trinton and the forces from the Kingdom of Findersen that may appear later. I can deal with them in the Unicorn, but I'm not confident that the Archangel will remain unscathed."

"That means the Archangel will be damaged, right?" Mu grinned and pulled the trigger. The thick beam of light once again accurately blew up a dagger. "But no matter how damaged the Archangel is, it won't be worse than when it was evacuated from the Alaska base. After all..."

"Stop talking, be careful of your bad mouth!" After hearing Mu's words, Rhodes interrupted Mu from continuing to talk about this topic.

"The mission has changed. The reconnaissance mission is no longer possible. Destroy the factory where these blue cosmos manufacture giant MAs, and then we will retreat!" Malu's voice sounded in the communication.

At this time, the three destruction machines also took action.

They raised their hands, revealing the muzzles of guns in their fingers. 30 green beams shot out from their fingers, weaving into a web of death, covering the approaching unicorn.

But it seemed that because they were not familiar with this machine, several Daggers died at the hands of Destruction.

"This level of firepower..." Ross controlled the Unicorn, constantly adjusting its direction in the air, like a nimble fish, slipping through the gaps between these moving "threads." "...it's far inferior to the Nichirin ν Gundam!"

"Hirin Gyuu... What kind of machine is Gundam? Is it someone you know?" Mu's slightly confused voice sounded over the communication.

"Shut up, I'm operating it!" Ross changed direction, brushed past a destroyer that was grabbing his right hand, activated the beam saber on his left arm, and extended a beam saber from his forearm.

The unicorn flew around the arm in front of it and cut off the destroyed right arm. The color of the melted metal could be seen at the broken part.

Maintaining an extremely fast speed, the Unicorn dodged the green beams shot out from the small rotating beam cannon on the backpack and successfully arrived on top of Destruction.

If he shot directly at the cockpit at the center of the Destruction in the direction it was facing, the Beam Magnum might pass through the Destruction and hit the distant city of Findersen. If he attacked from behind the Destruction, it might hit the Archangel. Both of these results were unacceptable to Ross, so he could only attack from above the Destruction.

As the Beam Magnum briefly charged, the Destruction with its right hand severed raised its head and looked at the Unicorn, as if preparing to attack Ross with the cannon in its mouth.

A fierce particle beam gushed out from the sphere at the muzzle of the beam magnum. The head of the Destroyer, which had just lit up the ray for aiming, was hit accurately by the thick beam. The heavy armor was quickly dissolved, and the pilot in the cockpit was swallowed up by the beam before he could utter his last words.

The Destroyer seemed to have lost all ability to move, allowing the Magnum Beam to penetrate its entire body and directly hit the ground. Purple electricity surrounded the beam, continuously cutting the broken body, leaving behind a series of thin, irregular marks of melted metal.

As the beam magnum output ended, the destruction machine continued to drop various broken parts due to the cutting of purple electric current, and eventually turned into a pile of wreckage.

The next second, the unicorn raised the shield on his left hand and unfolded it. A beam shield appeared in front of the shield. Then, the red and white beams hit the beam shield heavily, splashing like high-pressure water hitting a boulder.

The scattered beams of light hit the ground, leaving traces. Many Blue Cosmos operating the anti-aircraft turrets were swept by the splashing beams and disappeared from this world without even having time to scream.

"Output power is normal... Very good, let's just push on!" Rhodes glanced at the aircraft's status on the touch screen and stepped on the pedal.

The Unicorn kept its beam shield unfolded, and the flames ejected from the propulsion backpack became thicker. With a shield charge, it continued to approach destruction, despite the resistance of the Siren Monster's multiple cannons hitting the beam shield.

Although these destroyers look very large, due to some adaptation issues and some technical difficulties, they are not equipped with Aurora nuclear reactors, and still use a battery stacking method similar to Shangbro to maintain endurance.

The problem this raises is that, except for some small-caliber beam weapons that can be used continuously, the Kraken Monster multiple cannons on their chests and heads cannot be used for long periods of time.

As the Kraken Monster's multiple cannons entered the charging and cooling phase, the Destruction driver could only use his fingers and the beam cannon on his backpack to continue attacking the Unicorn.

At the same time, another Destroyer fired the Kraken Monster's multiple cannon on its chest at the Unicorn that was traveling in the rain of beams. The four six-barreled large-caliber missile launchers on its backpack also fired all the missiles, which flew towards the Unicorn.

It can be said that the Earth Army's design of the Destroyer is very good in terms of firepower. Two Destroyers can already have the saturation firepower strike capability of an entire fleet. However, in terms of mobility, it is completely unsatisfactory.

The Unicorn kept its beam shield deployed, its posture-adjusting nozzles operating continuously, bypassing the Kraken's multiple cannons attacking from the side. It used the Vulcan cannon on its head to detonate several missiles that passed through the beam rain. Finally, after raising its beam shield to block a few beams, it flew through the dense beam rain and flew to the lower left of its target, Destruction.

If the speed of this destruction was a little faster, perhaps it could continue to suppress the unicorn.

But what Ross saw was the weakness of these Destroyers. He discovered it when he attacked the first Destroyer just now. These Destroyers were a little slow even to raise their heads. And now Ross passed through the firepower net of this Destroyer at such a fast speed that his left hand did not have time to turn around and continue to attack Ross.

And because this Destroyer blocked the other Destroyer's aim at the Unicorn, with one Destroyer missing, the firepower network instantly became sparse.

As if it had eyes on its back, Rhodes' feet kept stepping on the pedals and his hands kept adjusting the position of the joystick. The unicorn made several small changes of direction at low altitude, then rolled over and continued flying in a supine position.

Unicorn raised the beam magnum in his hand, and Ross pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The familiar thick light appeared again, easily piercing through Destruction's left waist, passing through the chest, shooting out from the right shoulder, straight into the sky, forming a purple-red beam of light.

The purple electricity sliced through the Destruction with ease, much of it leaking out from its body, carving gashes across its torso. The current also sliced through the Destruction's head, revealing its internal structure and components destroyed by the current, making it look extremely hideous.

This is what Shura saw when he just flew near the port of Trinton.

……

The once orderly port of Trinton has become dilapidated, with melted steel structures everywhere, and high-energy batteries stored in warehouses exploding.

The huge MS was gradually damaged under the attack of the light beam, and it slowly fell to the ground like a giant with a hollowed-out body. The high-energy battery pack in the disc-shaped backpack began to explode continuously due to the damage, and pieces of armor were blown away.

On the ruined battlefield, the remaining daggers were continuously shooting at the Archangel, but from time to time a thick beam of light would shoot out from the central deck of the Archangel, accurately destroying a dagger.

A large number of rockets were fired from the remaining tanks and flew towards the Archangel, but under the dense anti-aircraft fire, only a few rockets were able to penetrate the fire network and hit the Archangel's armor.

The Archangel's laminated armor was covered in scorch marks from various explosions, appearing damaged, but in reality, the armor remained intact. The dagger's beam, after striking the laminated armor, briefly dissipated the heat and the remaining traces disappeared.

"Rods, the Finderson Kingdom's troops have arrived... Are they black mobile suits?! There are ten of them, and half of them are heading towards you!"

Mirialia's voice came over the comms, and Ross gritted his teeth.

"Tsk, I knew it... Wait a minute, we're dealing with the last giant mobile suit."

The unicorn changed its posture at low altitude, dodging the last destructive beam and flew towards the target.

"I will hold on until you come back. You have to speed up, Ross!" Mu kept firing. With so many enemies including Jin and Dean mixed in, precise aiming was meaningless. He just had to let the sniper gun hit more enemy machines.

"...divide into teams according to the predetermined plan. Team one, follow me. Utilizing the giant mobile suits as a fulcrum, we will advance steadily!" Looking at the scene displayed by the pilot, Shura's face darkened. "Team two, attack the enemy battleships and the mobile suits aboard!"

"Understood!" The teammates responded over the communication. The ten Black Knights skillfully split into two groups. Dean and King, who were carrying anti-ship weapons, followed the five Black Knights and flew towards the Archangel.

Feeling the suddenly denser firepower network, Rhodes controlled the unicorn to continue to maneuver in the attack, flying towards destruction little by little.

In other words, the Unicorn uses a laser nuclear fusion reactor, which allows Ross to maintain such high-intensity maneuvers. If it still uses a battery, it may run out of power soon.

Rhodes glanced at the number of shots left in the magazine and narrowed his eyes.

After rolling to avoid the incoming missile, Unicorn raised the beam magnum in his hand and aimed at the legs of Destruction.

The thick beam of light easily destroyed Destruction's legs. The driver of Destruction had no time to control the backpack to transform, and could only watch Destruction fall to the ground in despair.

This was exactly the effect Ross wanted. After blocking several incoming shells with his shield, Unicorn aimed his gun at the ground in front of him and pulled the trigger.

The falling destruction just hit the thick beam of light. The high-energy beam melted the armor of the last destruction like a hot knife cutting butter, destroying it along with the driver and disc-shaped backpack.

"You bastard!" Although she felt the murderous intent coming from the graceful pure white machine in front of her, when she saw the Blue Cosmos machine, which was the "ally" of the Findersen Kingdom, being destroyed by her because she ignored the Findersen Kingdom's attack, an inexplicable anger diluted her inner worries.

Reaching out and pulling out the heavy-slashing sword from the machine, Shura drove the Black Knight towards the Unicorn.

"This is Ross. Prepare to return to the Archangel for support." After quickly dodging several beam attacks, Ross calmly controlled the Unicorn to remove a magazine from the rear skirt with his left hand, raised the beam magnum in his right hand, and unlocked the magazine's fixing device.

The left hand, which was already holding a magazine, also grasped the empty magazine. After pulling out the empty magazine, it moved slightly and pushed the new magazine into the Beam Magnum. As the mechanical structure of the Beam Magnum operated, the new magazine was also firmly fixed on it, completing the connection.

Unicorn's left hand mounted the empty magazine on the rear skirt armor again. After all, this thing was not cheap to make, and with Ross's current financial strength, he couldn't afford to just throw it away after using it.

As if sensing something, Ross controlled the unicorn to turn suddenly, and the shield, which was originally in an expanded structure, reassembled and blocked a slash.

"I got you!" Shura shouted among the Black Knights, controlling the Black Knights to continue to increase their strength, intending to chop the unicorn away.

But then, he felt something was wrong. Although he had increased the output power so high, the Black Knight's heavy sword did not cut down as expected, but was quickly pushed away.

The flames of the unicorn's propulsion backpack grew larger again, and the white shield, like a locomotive, crashed into the black knight with the heavy sword. The violent vibration made Shura unable to react for a while.

Skilled shield strikes followed one after another, and the huge force knocked the black knight away.

"Aaaaaah..." Shura screamed subconsciously after being hit by the violent impact, but his hands still tightly gripped the joystick.

"Captain!" The voices of teammates were heard in the somewhat chaotic communication. Two Black Knights raised their guns towards the Unicorn and began to aim.

Ross frowned as he felt himself being targeted twice. The beam saber on Unicorn's left forearm extended again, but the power was specially increased, causing the beam saber to almost break through the restraint position and show its violent side.

It's not easy to use the beam magnum at close range. These black MS are very resistant to both live ammunition and beams, and the Vulcan cannon has little effect... In that case, before those two black MS open fire, use the high-powered beam saber to chop up the black ones in front of you!

Thinking of this, the beam saber in Unicorn's left hand drew a perfect arc and slashed towards the cockpit of the Black Knight where Shura was.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Shura subconsciously stepped on the pedal, and the Black Knight's thrusters instantly increased power, raising the position of the body.

The high-powered beam saber smoothly chopped into the Black Knight's waist, and the FT armor was easily torn apart, completely useless in front of the beam saber. Even the thrusters behind the Black Knight were affected by the beam saber, causing an explosion.

The Black Knight was cut in two by the beam saber, but Ross frowned as he looked at the Black Knight whose cut was offset.

Then, the Unicorn kicked the Black Knight who was still in a short-term suspended state. The thrusters on its legs started to work, and the body suddenly moved sideways, avoiding two beams from other Black Knights in the sky.

The Beam Magnum quickly took aim, and a violent torrent of beams shot out from the muzzle, accurately covering a Black Knight.

There was no time to make any sound, only extreme fear. In an instant, the original FT armor was overloaded and the entire Black Knight was melted, without even having time to explode.

The Black Knight, who was closest to the beam, watched in despair as the purple lightning overloaded the FT armor, cut the Black Knight in half, detonated the battery pack, and exploded into a firework in the air.

"It was just a graze..." Shura, who had not yet recovered from the brief confrontation, stared blankly at the scene where his two companions died at the hands of the Unicorn's gun.

The communication was filled with the hoarse screams of my companions, and my mind was filled with the overwhelming fear of my companions.

Finally, the wreckage of the black knight where Shura was located crashed onto the dilapidated ground, causing a violent vibration.

PS: This is the first update today, there will be another one later.

I got some Monster Hunter Wilds cat food for lunch today, and it almost made me die of laughter.

Especially the scene of eating honey cabbage with shrimps, and that mysterious smile, it gives a feeling of "being amused by one's own cooking skills" and "being beaten all day, eating this kind of thing at night feels like life is just like this."
