Immortal Soul of Steel

"Moreover...the energy of this machine has also reached its bottom. There is nothing we can do anymore."

Almost as soon as Lin Youde finished speaking, a system prompt appeared in front of Lin Youde.

[The hidden mission has been completed! 】

Quickly opening the mission interface, mission information appeared in front of Lin Youde.

Lux also rested her chin on Lin Youde's shoulder and started to read.

—Task interface—

(√)Hidden mission: Unexpected disaster

Mission description: Due to the invitation of P.L.A.N.T. Speaker, Durandal, Lux and Lux ​​went to visit the launching ceremony of the new ship, but were attacked. And encountering a life-threatening crisis is really an unreasonable disaster.

Mission requirements: Protect Lux from surviving this battle.

Mission reward: "Adjuster·Talent Card"*1

(√)Hidden mission: perfect support

Mission requirements: Help Pulse Gundam repel Gaia Gundam, Chaos Gundam, and Abyss Gundam without suffering any attacks.

Mission reward: "Adjuster·Talent Card"*1, Gaia Gundam, Chaos Gundam, Abyss Gundam, Sword-mounted Pulse Gundam body data, choose one from four.

——

Lin Youde's eyes lit up when he looked at the reward for this mission.

"Come on, come on, isn't the mission reward coming?"

"I have obtained two adjuster talent cards, and Kasbar's request has been completed. Grungast Three Styles has been successfully obtained."

"By the way, it also comes with a piece of body information. It's not worth taking such a big risk to come here to make soy sauce."

"Sure enough, opportunities and risks coexist, and there are rewards."

Lux looked at the two hidden tasks that Lin Youde had completed and asked happily.

"So, Youde, which body's information are you going to choose?"

Lin Youde touched his chin and replied: "Sword-equipped Pulse Gundam."

"According to my previous pattern of receiving hidden mission rewards, if I find an opportunity to defeat or capture the other three Gundams, I should also be able to obtain the information on those three Gundams."

"On the contrary, Durandal will probably hide the only remaining Pulse Gundam and prevent us from getting it."

"It's actually a good opportunity to directly obtain information about Pulse Gundam from here."

Lux nodded slightly and agreed.

After receiving the reward casually, Lin Youde looked up and watched two Zaku Warriors, one white and one red, flying in the direction where the four Gundams had just left.

Lux also saw this scene and asked: "Is that... going to support the Pulse Gundam?"

Lin Youde nodded: "That's right. Although the pilot of the Pulse Gundam is impulsive, as long as the commander is not a fool, he will know how much he will suffer if he lets one Pulse Gundam fight the other three."

"Furthermore, the configuration of the Sword-mounted Pulse Gundam is similar to that of the Sword-mounted Strike Gundam. They are both specialized types for close combat."

"Fighting air combat with this configuration is simply suicidal."

"If we don't provide support at this time, I'm afraid the Pulse Gundam will be lost."

Lin Youde shook his head and controlled the Zaku warrior to walk to the edge of the battlefield.

Lux looked at the display with interest, the four fighting Gundams and the two supporting Zaku Warriors, and asked while watching.

"Where should we go next?"

Lin Youde looked around and returned.

"As I said just now, find a way to get to the new ship."

"My Freedom Gundam is still on that ship."

"In the future, as long as the ZAFT army cannot capture the three Gundams, then, if nothing else, it will turn into a new type of ship carrying the Pulse Gundam to pursue the three stolen Gundams."

Lux tilted her head: "The situation seems to have changed with Youde at that time? But it doesn't seem to have changed."

Lin Youde smiled and said: "Yes, although the ZAFT army is still chasing the United Earth Army, this time it is the United Earth Army that snatches the Gundam."

"The positions of both sides have reversed, but their identities have not changed. The pursuing side and the pursued side are still the same as I was back then."

Lux tapped her lips with her finger: "So, you suspect that the main trigger point of the hidden mission is on the new type of ship responsible for the pursuit?"

Lin Youde nodded: "Yes, after all, this is the only clear point that triggers the event."

"If you want to complete missions, it's better to go to a new type of ship."

"Furthermore, I am also curious about the true purpose of the troops who snatched the Gundam."

"Are those guys from the Earth Alliance? Or are they just terrorists?"

"I still feel uneasy because I don't understand it... Oh, I found it. Is that the new ZAFT ship we want to see this time, the Minerva?"

Lux turned to look at another screen: "This is... the Minerva? Is it the Goddess of Wisdom?"

"It seems to be very different from the Archangel and Eternity."

Lin Youde nodded: "There is a big difference in appearance, but I don't know how big the gap will be in terms of combat effectiveness."

"The new ship that was rebuilt after more than a year should be very powerful, right?"

To this, Lux nodded in agreement.

But Lin Youde secretly complained: "Although the Minerva was in the original work, due to major changes in the script, it was overturned by the old Archangel. It was simply a shame for a new type of ship." ’

'But after the script was overhauled, many things became very strange, and it seemed not good to dwell on this. ’

Lux looked at the Minerva getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but wonder: "But, how are we going to get up?"

Before Lin Youde could answer, the ejection hatch of the Minerva opened.

Lin Youde glanced at the red Zaku warrior in the sky, which was gliding towards the Minerva with billowing smoke, and couldn't help but laugh.

"When I open sesame, won't the door open?"

Lux gave Lin Youde an angry blow and said, "Stop making trouble and be serious."

After the red Zaku warrior crash-landed into the Minerva, Lin Youde also controlled the green Zaku warrior to use the thruster to make a big jump and fly into the ejection channel.

As the red Zaku warrior walked to the tarmac, the cockpit door opened, and a beautiful girl with burgundy short hair wearing a red ZAFT military uniform walked out of the cockpit.

Looking at this girl, Lin Youde silently read her name in his heart.

‘Luna Maria Hawke. ’

Lin Youde recognized this popular girl who was very eye-catching in the original work and was paired with the protagonists written by many fan authors by default in many "Gundam SEED" fan stories.

"Luna!"

The people in the maintenance team seemed to know Luna, and they all gathered around her when they saw her coming down.

Lin Youde controlled the machine body and parked next to the red Zaku Warrior. He also opened the cockpit, walked out with Lux in his arms, and landed on the ground on a rope.

As soon as the two of them landed, exclamations of exclamation rang out in Gnaku.

"Miss Lux?"

"Prince Kira?"

"How can it be……"

Luna turned her head and looked at Lin Youde and Lux, her whole body was stunned.

"Miss Lux and...Prince Kira?"
