Gundam UC Hunting Time

"I haven't encountered it, and besides, it's wartime now."

"In that case..."

Rachel hadn't finished speaking when the communicator beside her rang. She glanced at the screen, her shoulders immediately slumped, and she gave Lin Xingyuan a cute shrug, stuck out her tongue, and winked.

"There's really no other way."

She then tightened the zipper on her chest, picked up the communicator, and the blush on her face disappeared as if in a joke, as if the drunkenness just now was only Lin Xingyuan's illusion.

[She truly is a mature woman!]

The viewers in the live chat immediately started calling her "sister," which was quite pathetic.

The communication was quickly established. Rachel responded with a businesslike tone, then widened her eyes in surprise before handing the communicator to Lin Xingyuan.

"It's for you."

Lin Xingyuan took the microphone with a puzzled look and revealed his identity.

"I am Lin Xingyuan."

"Military ID: EAN****952, Captain Lin Xingyuan, hereby relaying orders from headquarters: the transport plane bound for Gabro will depart at 16:00 today. Please assemble one hour prior to departure to board and wait. Repeat—"

Lin Xingyuan was taken aback when the other party gave the notification in a businesslike tone.

"To Gabro?"

2499 words, that's not considered filler, right?

Thank you all for your support, I will work hard!

Chapter Ninety-Two: Ireland, you schemed against me!

[Going to Jabro at this time, they're probably going to receive a Gundam, right?]

Which unit will it be?

[I'm afraid he's going to pilot the Sixth Brother. The Sixth Brother himself is fine, except for his two shoulder cannons, which are a bit of a pain.]

The barrage of comments started with enthusiastic analysis and discussion again, and Lin Xingyuan felt the same way until he saw the comment from ID: Wufeihei.

Could this be a trap set by Ireland?

That's why they say the GM is a bastard, but the chat is full of heroes.

Upon seeing this comment, Lin Xingyuan's feverish mind immediately calmed down.

I was originally thinking of just leaving, since I wouldn't be able to get revenge on Ireland, but they came first.

What should we do?

Lin Xingyuan's face darkened, and Rachel looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Are you alright? Is there some bad news?"

"No, where is General Rebil?"

Lin Xingyuan shook his head and decided to ask the old man to set up a scheme to turn the tables on him.

"They should be on the USS Patton. What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I'm leaving now, so I should say goodbye to His Excellency the General."

Lin Xingyuan smiled.

Rebil was undoubtedly very busy. As the supreme commander of the Federation Army, even though he had just dealt a major blow to the enemy, he still had endless work to do. As a result, the order officer on duty today kept refusing Lin Xingyuan's request for a meeting, which made him suspect that the guy was acting on Ireland's orders.

For a moment, he was at a loss. Lin Xingyuan could only wait in the lobby until the black staff officer who had picked him up earlier passed by with documents in his hand, and things took a turn for the better. At this time, there were less than two hours left before the transport plane took off—in fact, if Lin Xingyuan hadn't just achieved a dazzling victory, had high prestige, and been Rebil's 'favorite general,' the black staff officer probably wouldn't have risked helping him.

This shows that having a high reputation is indeed very beneficial.

"General Rebil has five minutes."

As they left the office, the Black staff officer, Bill, whispered a reminder to Lin Xingyuan.

"Thank you very much, Major."

Lin Xingyuan shook hands with him gratefully, straightened his uniform, and walked into General Rebil's office with renewed vigor. However, as soon as he entered, he saw Ireland sitting opposite General Rebil, and his heart sank.

Why is he everywhere?!

It would be strange if there weren't ghosts here!

The barrage of insults started immediately. Lin Xingyuan composed himself, suppressed his disgust, saluted him, and then turned to General Reibill.

"Your Mightiness."

"...Sorry, I won't even give you time to rest. Gabriel has already made preparations. Once you get there, you'll have endless work to do. Ugh, really."

An empty coffee cup sat on the table, and the ashtray was full of cigarette butts. General Reibir looked tired, but his mind was still clear and his energy was high. This made Lin Xingyuan sigh, "Indeed, since ancient times, no one who can sit in this position has not been a superhuman."

"No, Luna 2 is surrounded by the Zeon forces, and my comrades are all waiting for good news from me. How can I rest in peace? General, you are the leader of the Federation forces, you must take care of your health."

Lin Xingyuan said seriously, and the comments section immediately started to complain.

[To be able to utter such high-sounding words without batting an eye, don't you think this PL has the potential to become a treacherous minister?]

Indeed, it gives off a grandma-like hairstyle vibe.

He's just not that handsome.

It's unnecessary to say he's not that handsome!

Lin Xingyuan rolled his eyes inwardly, when Rebil finally asked.

"Captain, you came all this way and waited for so long, it can't be just to say goodbye, right?"

“It’s like this.” Lin Xingyuan quickly said what he had prepared: “I have a bad feeling about this flight.”

"A bad feeling?" Rebil frowned.

"Yes, my intuition tells me that this flight may encounter unpredictable dangers."

"A premonition? Intuition? Are you kidding me?" Ireland looked at Lin Xingyuan with displeasure. He scoffed, "Captain, the way you talk is just like the new humans in Zeon's propaganda."

Newtypes are the focus of Zeon's propaganda, and on the Federation side, they are considered extremely politically incorrect. Ireland's ability to label people is truly impressive; even Lin Xingyuan is somewhat impressed by him.

However, he ignored Ireland and stared intently at Rebil.

"I am not afraid of danger, but I do not want to lose the opportunity to continue fighting against the Zeon army."

"...Really? Is this a warrior's intuition?"

Rebil stared at Lin Xingyuan's eyes with a scrutinizing gaze, casually categorizing his 'premonition' as 'warrior intuition', his protectiveness was obvious.

"Yes."

"I understand. There will be two shuttles with the same number that will take different routes. Just follow your intuition and choose which one to take."

Rebil nodded and immediately made arrangements.

Become!

Lin Xingyuan was overjoyed. He stood at attention, saluted, and took his leave. He first went to the Delta Squad's base to say goodbye to everyone, and then got into a jeep to go to the airport.

The Belgrade base, which had just won a battle, was very busy. Transport planes carrying troops and supplies were constantly taking off and landing. It was crowded and noisy. The jeep drove through the traffic and arrived at the designated boarding position, where two Sky Disc transport planes with the same number were already waiting.

Thank you, goodbye.

Lin Xingyuan picked up his bag and was about to leave when Rachel, who was driving, stopped him.

"Captain!"

She gestured for Lin Xingyuan to come closer, took off her glasses, and then kissed him. It wasn't a light, innocent kiss like Noelle's, but a real, adult kiss.

The ground crew nearby couldn't help but whistle at the sight. Rachel didn't care. After the kiss, she licked her lips and gave Lin Xingyuan a charming wink.

"It's a real shame we didn't have time to spend more time together. But we'll be heading back to Gabro soon, so we can take care of the rest then. Have a safe trip!"

Having sown the seeds of expectation and said her goodbyes, Rachel drove away with a flourish, befitting a mature woman.

But Lin Xingyuan only thought she was kind of cute.

"I'll be looking forward to it."

He felt a surge of satisfaction, waved to the departing jeep, then turned and walked towards the transport plane. He looked around, trying to sense his surroundings, but found that the abilities of the new humans didn't offer him any clues.

Or rather, it seems that either option is risky.

Lin Xingyuan subconsciously looked up, searching for a suspicious communication device in the air—thanks to the interference of the Minovsky particles, Ireland had to send someone by plane to communicate with Mark Bay.

However, there were so many planes in the sky that it was impossible to distinguish them at the moment.

He looked away and suddenly noticed several FF-3 Swordfish on the nearby aircraft. These were interceptors developed by the Earth Federation Forces for use within the atmosphere. They were the basic models of the FF-S3 Swordfish, with the rocket engines removed and the fuselage and wing shapes modified to reduce the risk of stalling. However, they were no different from the space models in terms of operation.

The pilots are preparing for takeoff, and several ground crew members are attaching auxiliary fuel tanks to the swordfish, making it look like they are about to embark on a long-range mission.

"Are they going to escort the transport plane?"

A thought struck him, and he stepped forward to inquire. Sure enough, he received an affirmative answer. It seemed that Rebil had made very thoughtful arrangements. Grateful, he rolled his eyes and went up to the pilot to strike up a conversation.

It's burned out, please support me!

Chapter Ninety-Three: Reunion at the Gabro Base

The attack came as expected.

Six Zeon Dopps launched a surprise attack from the direction of the setting sun, two more than the escorting Swordfish.

Lin Xingyuan sat in the cockpit of the Swordfish, admiring his own foresight.

"The escort mission has turned into a combat mission, what should we do? Is the ACE of the universe going to run away?"

The pilot of the other Swordfish joked with Lin Xingyuan without any fear. Because the colony where Zeon was located had no real sky, Zeon engineers lacked the aerodynamic knowledge necessary to develop fighter jets. As a result, the Dopp developed was very different from traditional aircraft, appearing somewhat strange. It even required attitude nozzles to ensure maneuverability, and its cruising speed and climb performance were not outstanding. This kind of fighter jet was really not up to par and often lost to the Federation Air Force in air combat.

"Don't underestimate me, I'm also a former Swordfish pilot."

If it were Aslan, with his stubborn personality, he would probably be holding his breath by now. But Lin Xingyuan, being a former pilot, knew these free spirits very well and didn't care about such jokes at all, taking the initiative to maneuver and engage the enemy.

"Haha, well done, guys, we can't fall behind!"

Four Swordfish bravely confronted the Zeon forces' Dop. Dop immediately dispatched four of his units to fight back, while the remaining two attacked the Sky Disc transport plane.

Do you think I'm Yamamoto Isoroku?

Lin Xingyuan, having cheated his way into boarding the Swordfish fighter jet, couldn't let the Zeon forces kill the Swordfish pilots inside the spaceship. He immediately pushed the throttle valve hard, quickly rolled, and took the lead in the turn, destroying a Dopp in a single exchange, earning cheers from the Swordfish pilots. Then, with a J-turn drift, he completed the turn in less than ten seconds, vividly demonstrating the value of his two gene enhancements.

"Hey! Did he just poop 12 gigabytes?"

Do you want to commit suicide?

Upon witnessing this, the Swordfish pilot couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Don't worry, it's no problem."

Seeing its companion shot down, another Dopp abandoned its attack on the Sky Disc and headed straight for Lin Xingyuan. Lin Xingyuan made a sharp turn and reversed before the enemy plane entered its attack path. The enemy plane swept past behind the Swordfish, missing its chance to attack. Lin Xingyuan then pulled up its nose, causing the enemy plane to turn and smoothly land in front of Lin Xingyuan. It tried to turn around, but it was too late, and Lin Xingyuan seized the opportunity to shoot it down.

After easily taking down two aircraft and relieving the crisis of the Sky Disc transport plane, Lin Xingyuan returned to the squadron and, in coordination with another Swordfish, hit the third Dopp in a series of crossfires.
