Gundam UC Hunting Time

The three enemy planes that had passed by began to turn and maneuver—unlike the Zaku, which moved on two legs, the Doma, which moved using a hovercraft, had a frighteningly large 'turning radius'.

Lin Xingyuan decisively launched a smoke grenade—fortunately, this equipment was independently powered and had not been damaged in the explosion.

The smoke quickly obscured the area around Lu Gao, and in the cockpit of the leading test vehicle, Colonel Frederick Cranberry smirked.

"Hmph, a death throes!"

Just as they were about to pull the trigger of the rocket launcher, they discovered that they were running out of ammunition.

He knew that close combat made him vulnerable to being attacked, so he made a quick decision.

"All aircraft, pay attention to your remaining ammunition. When dealing with a cornered beast, don't rush to attack. Surround it, and once the smoke clears, send the Black Death to meet the real Death!"

"oh--!!"

Feeling confident of victory, the Zeon pilots were in high spirits. During this precious time, Lin Xingyuan used his emergency troubleshooting skills to successfully and swiftly reboot his mobile suit at an astonishing speed. The Black Land High's nuclear fusion reactor roared to life again, granting the mobile suit boundless power. The red viewfinders of its eyes lit up once more, regaining the sharpness befitting a hunter.

On the screen, the red warning message faded, and the cold light from the screen reflected on Lin Xingyuan's face, his eyes dark and cold.

It's past midnight!

Chapter 130 The Black Reaper with Golden Eyes (Bonus Chapter as a token of gratitude)

The relentless barrage of rockets forced Lilith's Ground Gundam out of the base and into a thicket of bushes several kilometers away.

Enemy aircraft approached from three sides. Two were Zaku, and one she had never seen before, but she recognized—Lin Xingyuan had mentioned it in pilot training; the onboard AI had automatically provided identification information. It was a pre-production model of the Gough. It was a ground-based aircraft developed by Zeon for its invasion of Earth, and its performance indeed surpassed that of the Zaku.

Three against one.

It seemed like an unfavorable situation, but Lilith Aiden showed no fear whatsoever.

"Antares! Antares, can you hear me?"

Anita's anxious voice came through the earpiece; the fiber optic cable hadn't broken during that maneuver.

As expected of the captain, he's come up with something great.

"Yes, I heard you."

"Great! I see you're low on weapons and ammunition. Where are you? We'll go provide support right away."

"No need! Leave this to me, go support the others."

The guidance from Lin Xingyuan filled Lilith's heart with an incredible sense of security.

No matter who the enemy is, no matter how many there are, it doesn't matter! I will kill them all without leaving a single one alive!

"Black Reaper! Do you hear me? I am Ki Helmut of the Magasiia Squadron. Today, let's avenge the destruction of our machines and the killing of our captain!"

The enemy pilot declared war through a loudspeaker, and immediately the mass-produced Gouf in the front center raised its machine gun and fired at the black Ground Gundam, while the Zaku on both sides also aimed with their rocket launchers and surrounded it.

however--

Ignoring the other party's nonsense, Lilith pushed the control stick with fighting spirit and stepped on the pedal. The Ground Combat Gundam immediately leaped up with the help of the jet thrusters and charged directly at the enemy aircraft.

All the shells hit empty air. The enemy pilots did not expect her to move so fast, nor did they expect her to be so reckless. They were a step too slow to react, so the rockets fired by the two Zakus that followed flew to unrelated places. The black Ground Combat Gundam approached the mass-produced Gouf almost in the blink of an eye.

"Die—!"

Staring at the enemy aircraft that was zooming in on the screen, Lilith's roar was filled with hatred as she swung her beam torch.

"This guy!?"

Piloting the Gouf, Ki was intimidated by the imposing presence of the Black Ground Combat Gundam and dared not engage in a direct confrontation. He hastily retreated to avoid it and opened fire with his machine gun. However, he saw that the specially prepared armor-piercing rounds that hit the Black Ground Combat Gundam were actually deflected by its armor!

"How is that possible!?"

The black Ground Gundam thus forcibly approached the mass-produced Goof, and then fiercely opened fire with the 37mm machine gun in its head and the 60mm machine gun in its arms.

Faced with such fierce and dense barrage, in a moment of haste, the mass-produced Gouf could only retreat to avoid it while subconsciously raising his arm to protect his vulnerable head viewfinder and exposed power tubes. However, this rash action resulted in his chest being wide open, revealing a vulnerability.

The black Ground Fighter Gundam landed, glided, and narrowly avoided the crossfire of two Zaku. Then it thrust again, its back thrusters blowing up water and blasting out a large amount of steam, like an old-fashioned steam locomotive, speeding and roaring, approaching with an indomitable momentum, and wielding its beam torch blade!

What an ingenious use of propulsion!

Witnessing this scene, even the Zeon pilots, who were enemies, had to admit it.

boom--

Lightning flashed through the dark clouds, and thunder rumbled across the sky.

The beam torch flashed, and Gouf's machine gun and arm detached from the machine, spinning as they flew away. The chest armor was torn open, revealing the pilot's figure.

The black Ground Gundam landed successfully with a single strike, landing on its knees and sliding forward on the muddy ground due to inertia.

"not good--"

Having lost an arm and his weapon, the pilot of the early mass-produced Gouf paled. Gone was the initial fervent fighting spirit; instead, a chilling dread gripped him. He slammed on the pedals, leaping back to evade and regroup. The two Zaku pilots, working in perfect coordination, immediately fired their rocket launchers, but due to the Black Ground Gundam's momentum, they slid to their knees and missed again. Fortunately, they still managed to cover the early mass-produced Gouf's safe landing.

"Captain/Ki! Are you alright!?"

"It's nothing, damn it—"

Once he regained his footing on the ground, Kigan, piloting the early-production Gouf, cursed under his breath before staring directly into the exceptionally bright golden viewfinder of the black Ground Combat Gundam. Those eyes, almost like those of a feline predator, seemed to be sending him this message—

Don't even think about escaping!

I'll bite your throat and make you stop breathing completely!

The next second, the black Ground Combat Gundam, which had not yet stopped gliding, once again emitted propulsion beams from its back. The machine rose into the air as it glided, its dark outline almost blending into the surrounding environment under the gloomy sky, like an infinitely large cloak. The beam torch in its hand was like the scythe of death.

"This is... the Black Reaper!?"

In an instant, intense fear overwhelmed Ki's fighting spirit. Spurred by the sudden feeling of defeat, he used his remaining arm to pull out the Zaku Battle Axe from the mass-produced Guff equipment, hurled it at the approaching Black Land High, and then turned and fled.

The red-hot battle axe cleaved through the humid air, spinning as it came crashing down.

The black ground-based Gundam swung its shield to block, sending the battle axe flying. The axe crashed to the ground, releasing steam before quickly dimming.

The two Zaku beside them went berserk, emptying their rocket magazines before they could reload, and then fired their machine guns at the black ground combat Gundam of the mass-produced Gouf that was advancing ahead. However, the shells either landed in the air or hit the shields and bounced off.

In the blink of an eye, the black Land Rover approached the mass-produced Gouf with its back to him, unleashing a beam torch blade with a clean and decisive horizontal sweep followed by a diagonal slash.

The scorching blade swept across the mass-produced Gouf, then cut in from the right shoulder, sweeping across the torso and thrusters, and exiting from the left waist, severing it in two or three pieces!

"boom--"

The thruster fuel was detonated by the light blade, and the enemy aircraft, which had been broken in two from shoulder to waist, split up, with each wreckage falling to the ground. The pilots were killed instantly.

"One machine!"

The mass-produced Gouf exploded behind him, and the black Ground Gundam, which had been flying past, landed on one knee again. Then, with its shield tip piercing the ground, it used a stroke of genius to slow down and change direction, leaving the two Zaku shells behind and completing the head-on confrontation.

"team leader!"

Seeing this, the two Zagu tanks were furious. They jumped up and took turns firing, gradually closing in while engaging in pinpoint fire.

Without dodging or retreating, Lilith's black ground combat Gundam remained kneeling, using her hand and shoulder shields to withstand the attacks from the two Zaku.

The Zaku machine gun shells were unlikely to inflict fatal damage on the Luna Titanium Alloy; they would definitely use rockets and Zaku Axes—this was the Newtype's intuition that told Lilith. So, amidst the dense barrage of shells, she calmly maintained her lying-in stance. Until the two Zakus that had emptied their ammunition trays landed, one discarded its machine gun and pulled out its axe, while the other raised its rocket launcher.

"Now!"

Black Land High suddenly drew her beam rifle from her waistband and fired at an enemy aircraft that was reloading its rocket launcher—because she preferred close combat, her beam rifle still had enough energy left after a battle.

The Zaku, wielding a rocket launcher, was first pierced in the right leg by a beam, causing its body to tilt to the side. Then, another beam pierced its chest, causing the mobile suit to fall backward, bounce on the ground, tumble, and explode. The Zaku pilot, holding a battle axe, turned around in astonishment. Just then, the lurking black Land Gundam pounced forward, firing a propelled armor-piercing cone from under its shield.

Zaku hastily spun to the side to block, but the armor-piercing spike that had pierced the shield exploded abruptly, shattering the shield along with it, leaving his exposed torso completely unprotected. Black Land High used the force of the explosion to slam down, its beam torch slashing down with the sharpness to end everything!

Thank you for the donations and monthly tickets! It's hard to copy the ID on the computer, but anyway, thank you all for your support. Actually, the subscription rate for this book is pretty good, it's been steadily increasing. The subscription-to-collection ratio is too good to be precise, it's just too good. Seeing the results has made my resolve much stronger. So, I'm adding an extra chapter!

The Zeon squad only received one new mobile suit; the other two were repaired Zakus. At the time, the chubby uncle had six transport planes, three of which were hit, one was damaged, and the other two were burned, so three could be repaired. Zeon didn't have many mobile suits available for them at this point.

Chapter 131 Shirley Paige is not good at fighting.

Among the trees on the hill—

Drop drop-

The alarm has been going off non-stop since just now.

Shirley Page glanced at the alarm message, which showed the coordinates of enemy aircraft scattered in three directions, with the closest being only 400 meters away.

How long-winded! I've already seen it!

The worthless hints reminded her of her previous manager who only talked nonsense—if it were Captain Lin Xingyuan, he would never say such useless things, but would directly tell her what to do.

Shells whizzed by—not rockets, the kind you could take head-on. Shirley Page skillfully maneuvered the Marine GM, whose balance had been compromised by the muddy hillside, sidestepping to minimize the area exposed to the shells, raising her shield in a defensive stance, and steadily blocking the incoming shells. The next second—

Clang!

The powerful impact traveled through the shield to the cockpit; the shells did not explode but were deflected, indicating that the enemy aircraft used armor-piercing shells.

Shirley Page quickly adjusted her aircraft's attitude and fired the three remaining rockets from her shoulder-mounted rocket pod, distributing them precisely to the three enemy aircraft, not to hit them, but to disrupt their rhythm. Just as the enemy aircraft jumped to evade, she spotted the nearest Zaku on her flank and immediately raised her machine gun to fire from above her shield.

The enemy plane in motion was hit, and intense sparks flew everywhere—it seemed that the shell had hit the enemy's shield. But then the enemy plane went out of control and crashed to the ground, sliding several meters before exploding with a bang. Clearly, it had hit more than just the shield.

Your biggest problem is that your attacks are too direct—the captain was right after all!

With a faint smile playing on her lips, Shirley Page, having landed her first blow, immediately discarded the machine gun, now empty of ammunition, to lighten her load and swiftly moved down the slope.

With an unparalleled sense of balance, she lowered the aircraft's center of gravity to stabilize her posture. The Ground GM leaped and slid down the slope, almost like a skier, leaving behind all the shells and rockets that came like an avalanche from behind.

"That's it! That's it!"

With a one in four chance, I actually encountered it!

Beneath the disguise of a Zaku G, in the cockpit of what was actually a Gough experimental aircraft, Vincent confirmed from the clean and efficient handling of the Ground GM that it was the enemy aircraft that had killed his captain that day—and now, it had killed his teammate once again.

Even with doubts about the war, Vincent was now determined: he had to kill this enemy no matter what!

"Annie! Go around her!"

"learn!"

As he gave the order, his teammate Annie Rosenheim immediately turned to the other side. With its superior maneuverability compared to the Zaku, the first mass-produced Gouf easily moved up the slope and opened fire on the enemy aircraft.

"He's a good player."

Shirley Page skillfully avoided the bullets by taking advantage of the terrain, and made a judgment with just a glance—not only was the aircraft's performance excellent, but the pilot's reaction was also exceptionally sharp.

Immediately afterwards, the alarm sounded again from behind, and another enemy aircraft launched a rocket—it must have been the enemy's captain's plane.

Shirley Page immediately jumped to avoid the rocket, while simultaneously turning to fire at the enemy aircraft on her flank. Unexpectedly, the mass-produced Goof had anticipated this and deftly maneuvered its thrusters to jump, easily dodging the beam; even when she immediately fired a second shot, the enemy aircraft still calmly avoided it.

This was no ordinary level of keen insight, which reminded her of Lilith—during their simulated battles, Lilith could occasionally make such "prophetic" predictions.

An ordinary driver would probably be no match for such an opponent, but—

I won the simulated battle!
