Gundam UC Hunting Time

Comments: [If PL does this, what if Shirou Hitada is too skilled and kills Aina in the first battle?]

"team leader!?"

Amada Shirou was startled and rushed forward to help Hayashi Seiyuan. Hayashi Seiyuan left with a single sentence, as if fleeing from something, and quickly departed.

"I was just joking! Forget about it!"

Chapter 72 Battle Inside the Satellite

With its thrusters firing at maximum power, accompanied by a violent push, the black Zani flew out of the Columbus-class and sped forward. Lin Xingyuan looked back and saw the Io and Bianca aircraft following behind. Behind them were swarms of specially equipped iron balls. The lead iron ball had two long, thin antennas on its head, and its shield was painted with a sword piercing the Zeon insignia. It was the aircraft of Lieutenant Hillary, the commander of the 101st Flight Group.

"Lieutenant Hillary, are you alright?"

As a seasoned veteran, Lin Xingyuan immediately noticed her distracted state from the aircraft's flight posture. Realizing the gravity of the situation, he promptly sent a communication message to his supervisor. There was a moment of silence before a curt reply.

"...I'm fine, please don't worry."

"That's good. Report any problems immediately."

Mistaking the other party's attitude as embarrassment and emotional outburst, Lin Xingyuan didn't delve deeper. He confirmed the formation and began accelerating. At the same time, the other squadrons also launched from their carriers, their scattered attacks eventually forming a formidable wave. Immediately afterward, the Space Force's assault fleet opened fire first. Particle cannons ripped through the tranquility of space, accurately hitting the patrolling Zeon ship, piercing its armor, and causing an explosion!

The Zeon forces stationed there only then realized that the concentration of Minovsky particles in the current space had exceeded celestial levels. The damaged warships frantically tried to evade, but were immediately hit and pierced by successive beams of light. The Federation gunners finally demonstrated their skill and tactics once again, while the Zeon forces hurriedly sounded the alarm, turned their guns, and launched mobile suits.

The battle has finally begun.

The black Zani sped toward the Zeon Zaku that was hastily coming to meet it. Bianca behind it raised its cannon and fired first. The enemy plane immediately evaded, but was immediately pierced through the cockpit by the light-speed shot that followed.

The enemy plane, severed in two at the waist, emitted a dazzling light that completely engulfed the remains. Bianca glanced at the distance between them and was secretly surprised.

That was a really good shot! Was it because it was a beam weapon?

"Captain, can I borrow it next time?"

She continued aiming and firing while shamelessly begging. The Zaku's shells struck her mobile suit's shield with terrifying bangs.

"Then you just wait."

Lin Xingyuan chuckled and continued firing, hitting the target again; his aim was surprisingly good. Another Zaku maneuvered around and fired from the side. Lin Xingyuan parried with his shield, while the Gatling gun on his shoulder fired over the shield. The line of fire seemed to pull the two aircraft together, firmly holding the enemy in place. Io seized the opportunity to move forward and swiftly cut it down. The three enemy aircraft that had launched the initial attack were thus quickly annihilated.

However, the Zeon fleet successfully got moving, accelerating while exchanging fire with the Federation forces, gradually moving away from the colony. At this time, other mobile suit teams and special armored iron teams also joined the attack, exchanging fire with the Zeon Zaku that had been urgently deployed.

After counting the number of enemy aircraft, it was less than expected, well within the range that the MS and the special iron ball team could handle. Based on this, Lin Xingyuan made a judgment and led his team and the special iron ball team to Amada Shiro to head towards the colony satellite.

At the colony's port, several Zaku escorted a Musei as it departed, likely having hastily mobilized after receiving a combat alert, preparing to join the battle. Lin Xingyuan immediately led his squadron to turn, flying close to the colony's outer wall, firing beams at the unsuspecting enemy ship from an angle that would not damage the colony. The beams accurately struck the Musei's main guns, neutralizing its combat capabilities without affecting its navigation. The escorting Zaku reacted only then, but it was too late.

Three Zanis, carrying five iron balls, calmly aimed, fired, evaded, searched for the enemy, and aimed again, shooting down the Zaku in succession.

[Great rhythm!]

Why do I feel a strange sense of security?

This is the true fighting power of an elite pilot!

The viewers were deeply moved, and Lin Xingyuan felt the same way. Suddenly, the machine received a directional laser communication. He clicked on it and found that it was an external intelligence report, probably sent by intelligence personnel lurking in the satellite.

"Intelligence has arrived; there are three Zaku on this satellite. Shirou, Musai is yours now. Drive it away. Bianca, Io, come in with me!"

Leaving the battle to Amada Shirou and his special iron team, Lin Xingyuan took Io and Bianca and flew towards the port of the colony.

"Fighting in a colony...wouldn't none of my weapons be usable?"

In the blink of an eye, three Zanis flew into the port of the colony satellite. Looking at the surrounding situation, Bianca suddenly became nervous.

These structures appear sturdy, but only in the case of relatively severe collisions; they cannot withstand a casual strike from the heavy firepower of her mech's equipment.

"At least it can serve as a target for attracting attention."

Io joked, and Bianca glared at his machine in annoyance.

"Shut up! Don't say such unlucky things!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a gust of air rushed over, causing the three Zani to shake violently—because the Zeon army had left in such a hurry, the gates leading from the port to the colony had not been closed!

"Damn Zeon bastards!"

In space, air is extremely precious, and it's even taxed!

Seeing this, Io couldn't help but curse. After all three machines had entered the colony through the gate, it immediately stepped forward and manually closed the gate. Lin Xing, who had 'transmigrated' here, was completely absorbed in seeing the colony for the first time.

Inside the colossal cylindrical structure, greenery and urban architecture complement each other, separated by an artificial mirrored ocean that extends to both sides before converging again on the other side. White mist rises from the center of the cylinder, forming the shape of clouds. This magnificent scene was built entirely by humankind from scratch, a true marvel of human engineering!

It's strange that a civilization capable of creating something like this can't solve Earth's environmental problems.

That's true, but humans can't stay on Earth forever.

The Distortion of Dreams

The comments section was also filled with amazement, but this brief lapse in concentration caused Lin Xingyuan to overlook the warning.

"Captain! Watch out!"

Bianca shouted a warning, and with the detector's warning sound, Lin Xingyuan looked down and saw black dots approaching. Zooming in, he discovered that someone on the ground was trying to attack them with wire-guided surface-to-air missiles.

Is there some mistake?

Recalling scenes like this, usually seen on invading villains, Lin Xingyuan couldn't help but scoff. He then activated the head-mounted machine gun to intercept the incoming missiles—at this moment, the advantage of the small-caliber head-mounted cannon became apparent. 25mm shells poured out, hitting quickly and accurately without damaging ground structures. He then swiftly lowered his altitude, extending the line of fire of the head-mounted cannon to destroy the missile launcher.

The Zeon soldiers on the ground fled in terror, but Lin Xingyuan ignored them and quickly scanned the ground. He soon spotted the three Zaku mentioned in the intelligence report, scattered in different locations in the colony, clearly acting as 'military police'. One of them had already activated its thrusters and jumped up to meet the attack.

"Tsk."

Fearing that the shells might fly to the other side of the colony and harm innocent people, Lin Xingyuan could only use his shield to block them. Io immediately unfolded his Zaku Axe and rushed towards the enemy aircraft.

"Leave it to me."

At this moment, two other Zaku tanks also spotted them and gradually approached while taking turns firing at them. Bianca raised his cannon to aim, but then cursed in frustration, fearing he might damage the ground.

"I knew this would happen, Io, you bastard, level three!"

"Very good, keep it like this—"

Lin Xingyuan gave the order ruthlessly. In fact, he knew that the MS should be equipped with weapons such as gel bombs and nets—the comments had reminded him of this. However, at this stage, the Federation didn't even have many decent MS. They were just piecing together existing machines and hadn't considered these details at all. He had also made suggestions when he received the mission, but there was simply no time to produce them. He could only rely on his courage and technical skills to forge ahead.

The black Zani quickly descended and rushed towards one of the Zaku. The Zaku was also moving at high speed. Upon noticing Lin Xingyuan approaching, it immediately turned its cannon and fired.

Normally, getting hit in the face by a shell is a bad outcome, but Lin Xingyuan was under orders and couldn't dodge. However, this wasn't a problem. He activated the wire-controlled missile on his left shoulder and fired at the target. The enemy plane immediately scrambled to avoid it, but this played right into his hands. The black Zani landed, turned, aimed, and fired in one fluid motion. The enemy plane's cannon, arms, and torso were hit almost simultaneously, with every shot hitting its mark. It crashed back to the ground faster than it had jumped, its single eye immediately going out. The missile was just a decoy; it flew in a parabolic arc and fell without ever exploding.

Having succeeded in his attack, Lin Xingyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He cut the wire, but before he could even experience the long-lost gravity, another Zaku came hurtling towards him, completely ignoring Bianca above him. It was clear that the other side was wary of the satellite and would not fire.

Cars on the road were crushed by the Zaku's massive feet, and the spent shell casings smashed deep craters in the ground. The fleeing crowd scattered in panic, and the enemy used firearms without restraint. 120mm shells landed one after another around Lin Xingyuan. Debris from buildings and roads, as well as exploding soil, flew around him. The outer wall of the colony was even exposed in the crater. Lin Xingyuan raised his shield to defend himself, but when he saw the enemy drop the machine gun and raise the rocket launcher, his mind went blank.

"Damn it! Nazi dogs!"

"How dare they use rocket launchers in a colony satellite!" he cursed, activated the thrusters, and leaped upwards. The Zaku followed, moving its cannon muzzle and firing rockets. Lin Xingyuan immediately used his head-mounted machine gun to intercept, detonating the rocket in mid-air. Then, using the smoke and flames of the explosion as cover, he charged forward from below, landing directly and crashing into the unsuspecting enemy aircraft.

With a loud bang—

The two machines collided violently, but it did not affect Lin Xingyuan's operation in the slightest. He simultaneously drew his electric-heated saber, aimed, and thrust it forward. The Zaku's armor immediately melted and separated like butter, revealing the pilot inside. Without hesitation, Lin Xingyuan continued to exert force, and the blade directly pierced into the cockpit, vaporizing the pilot and destroying the machine's control system, but without going any further, perfectly avoiding the possibility of detonating the nuclear fusion reactor.

Get it!

Lin Xingyuan drew his electric-heated military knife, took a few steps back, and the steel giant, as if atonement, knelt down, lunged forward, and its single eye went out, remaining motionless as if dead.

Chapter 73 Flanagan Passes By

With the crisis averted, Lin Xingyuan put away his thermal saber, looked around at the surroundings, and suddenly felt a strange unease.

"what?"

I had a feeling that someone was watching me, but the feeling was very ambiguous and vague. Just as I was wondering about it, a few comments suddenly flashed in my field of vision.

Speaking of which, isn't Zeon's famous Newtype Research Institute, the Flanagan Organization, located in Side 6?

Is the Baldur Bay colony a satellite of this place?

The Zeon army's NT!?

Lin Xingyuan was startled and took off, searching through the airspace above the colony, while the barrage of comments continued to refresh.

[Speaking of which, besides researching Newtype phenomena, the Flanagan Organization is also responsible for developing Newtype-specific weapons, conducting Newtype testing and recruitment, and training Newtypes to use their abilities. The Newtype-specific mobile suit MAN-08 Elmes was also developed here.]

Did the PL sense something?

[That's normal. Insight is already LV4+, it's not surprising that it will awaken at any time.]

Now he was even more certain that he was being watched by the NT. However, just as the comments said, he had not yet awakened. The colony was too big and had a large population. In addition, the residents had all gone into the air-raid shelters to hide because of the war, so it was impossible to find him in a short time.

"team leader?"

Bianca and Io found it strange to see Lin Xingyuan wandering around the colony like a headless fly, not looking on guard, but rather searching for something.

"what are you doing?"

"We should go."

"..."

Lin Xingyuan finally stopped. Given Amuro's post-war experiences and the Federation's attitude towards the New Humans, he could not reveal the truth to the two of them, and of course, he could not inform the Federation Army about the Flanagan Organization.

However, with such a treasure right before his eyes, yet unable to seize it, he couldn't help but feel anxious—partly because of Durandal. According to the clues, Durandal should reunite with him in an appropriate way, and considering his status as a genetic expert, appearing at the Flanagan Institute was the most likely scenario. If not here, then perhaps in Augusta on Earth?

"nothing."

Perhaps those new humans don't want to see themselves.

Lin Xingyuan smiled helplessly and piloted his aircraft away from the satellite.

The mobile suits inside the colony were rendered ineffective one after another. Although this inevitably caused some minor damage, it did not endanger the overall safety of the colony.

Outside the colony, the Zeon mobile suit fleet also fell victim to the Federation's Zani and several times their number of special-equipped iron balls. Without the cover of the mobile suit fleet, the Zeon forces immediately exposed their weakness in fleet construction. Their fleet, primarily composed of second-rate battleships like the Musai, was no match for the Federation's Magellan and Salamis-class destroyers, and quickly retreated due to heavy damage.

The Space Force's successful strike fully demonstrated the correctness of their current tactics. They didn't even need mobile units to annihilate the enemy's MS squad; simply engaging them was enough to defeat the Zeon forces head-on. Later, the fleet commander met with the management of Side 6, reaching some shady deals before turning back.

Lin Xingyuan later learned that his battle with the three Zaku had indeed been witnessed by several Zeon Newtype test subjects from the Flanagan Organization. However, for some reason, these Newtype test subjects instinctively resisted him and dared not show themselves or approach him.

But that's a story for another time.

After this battle, the Space Force finally had a respectable achievement, greatly boosting morale. Upon hearing the news, the high-ranking officials of the various neutral sides, fearing future repercussions, secretly increased their material and personnel support for Luna 2, greatly improving Luna 2's supply situation and increasing its production efficiency.

Of course, Zeon responded by quickly increasing patrols and reconnaissance. For a time, intense and frequent small-scale battles erupted between the two sides in the space surrounding Luna II. "Today you attack my supply ship, tomorrow I'll destroy your minelayer," Lin Xingyuan was constantly busy, receiving orders for emergency sorties.

but--

There's no point in winning against ordinary mobile suits—after launching several attacks, Lin Xingyuan found himself having thoughts similar to Xia's.

Perhaps it was because his experience points were increasing too slowly, and there were fewer comments, donations, and votes, or perhaps it was simply because he missed the adrenaline rush, the tension and excitement of being on the brink of death, where life and death hung in the balance, that he found himself beginning to crave fighting powerful opponents, at least those of Joni and Char.

"Am I actually a battle maniac?"

He couldn't help but fall into self-doubt, and Sergeant Mei, without looking up, offered his advice while checking the body's systems.

"I suggest you see a psychologist."

"Huh?" Lin Xingyuan was taken aback and hurriedly waved his hand: "It's not what you think, this is... yes, it's something called martial virtue. A master will have this feeling. Look at me now, I'm definitely the ace of ace!"
