Across countless worlds: Yearning to become a giant of light.

Chapter 29 [Interlude] Teresa's New Mecha

Just as Chen Lin returned to the Tiga universe and encountered a series of unexpected events, Chen Lin, who had traveled to the Gundam UC.0079 universe, was Teresa Ereshkigal. The One Year War in which she was living was coming to an end.

This was December 2nd, UC.0079.

In order to break the deadlock in the war, seize control of the universe, and thus achieve final victory in the war, the Federation Forces devised and launched Operation Star One.

The Federation's Second Combined Fleet, commanded by General Tiam, departed from Jabro and headed toward Luna II.

Two days later, Amuro's White Fortress was reorganized into the Thirteenth Independent Mobile Force and sent to space to participate in the war.

On December 5th, the Second Combined Fleet entered Luna II Base and merged with the Federation fleet stationed there. As one of the ace pilots serving in that fleet, Teresa was naturally transferred to the Federation Second Combined Fleet.

In addition, she also received a new mech approved by the higher authorities.

"Sergeant Teresa, um... your new mobile suit has arrived. Please... go and test it out..."

Even though the girl in front of him looked about the same age as his daughter, the mechanic still found it difficult to remain calm in her presence, even though it was the first time he had met Denise.

Just as the rumors say, simply standing in front of her, one can feel death following closely by.

No wonder the Zeon pilots called her...

Hella.

Meaning: Goddess of Death.

"Ah."

Denise replied calmly.

Teresa could sense the thoughts in this maintenance engineer who had just been sent from the Second Combined Fleet, but unlike the newly awakened humans, she did not become angry due to her extreme sensitivity.

Gripping the drive handle of the passage, Teresa moved quickly toward the MS hangar under light gravity.

The federal sergeants who passed by instinctively lowered their heads when they saw Denise. Although they dared not look her in the eye, they still greeted her politely.

"Hello to you all..."

She answered each of these questions one by one.

The reactions they received were naturally one of 'being flattered'. Even the maintenance worker following behind them was a little surprised that this rumored killer was actually so easy to talk to.
Denise didn't offer any explanation; she was already used to this situation.

Upon arriving at the hangar, the maintenance crew and Federation soldiers around her stopped what they were doing when they saw Teresa, and began whispering among themselves after she left.

"She is... Hela?"

"It is said to be even more terrifying than the Gundam pilot of the White Horse. Apparently, it is because it is too powerful that it has been ordered by its superiors to only engage in small-scale battles and will only be sent out to participate in the main battlefield when necessary."

"Eh! Is that so?"

"Not only that, I also heard that she came from a high-ranking family in the Federation, and that she lost everything because the damned Zeon destroyed Sydney with a colony satellite, which led her to join the army."

"This seems to be classified... How did you find out?"

"My sister is the mistress of a high-ranking official in the Federation."

With such an incredibly capable older sister, why don't you go and marry into a wealthier family?
On the other side, Denise didn't even need the mechanic to lead the way; she found the exclusive mecha provided to her by the Federation directly.

NGM-01 [Special Edition]
Overall height: 17 meters

Body weight: 40.2 tons

Total weight: 65.7 tons

Armor material: Luna titanium alloy
Engine power: 1450kW
Thruster thrust: 185000 kg
Sensor effective radius: 6000 meters

The specially designed experimental machine, painted in gray-silver and police black, has a more refined and lightweight design, making it completely different from the stiff-looking ragtag soldiers around it.

Rather, it's more like a Gundam shaped like a sunglasses machine!
"This machine was specially designed based on your previous combat data."

The mechanic standing nearby raised his hand to explain.

Because Teresa's piloting style is geared towards highly agile and maneuverable beyond-visual-range combat, in addition to the protective measures required for the core cockpit, the limbs have been enhanced with increased flexibility while reducing protection, in order to ensure that the machine can keep up with Teresa's reaction capabilities.

In addition to the standard 60mm Vulcan cannons x2 and two beam sabers, there is a close-range combat beam cannon mounted on the left shoulder and a folding close-range combat beam spray gun on the right shoulder. If it weren't for the machine's weak armor and low survivability, these two external close-range combat weapons would be completely unnecessary.

As for the main weapon...

It is a high-energy beam rifle with a long-range capability, also custom-made for Teresa. The barrel length alone is almost longer than the height of the mobile suit.

It uses a magazine for power, so it doesn't require additional energy from the machine. However, the downside is that it can't be used after the magazine is empty.

After listening to the explanation, Denise entered the cockpit and turned on the power.

buzzing...

"Is this the cockpit of the 360-degree surveillance system?"

Did they implement the technology from the Gundam NT1 here first?

Denise did a quick test of the operating system and found that it could indeed keep up with her reaction speed.

I just don't know if the actual actions can keep up.

"How is it, Sergeant Teresa?"

The maintenance mechanic standing outside the cockpit asked with some curiosity.

"Everything is fine, it just needs a little tweaking."

The uncle was somewhat taken aback upon hearing this.

When he first saw the data for this machine, he thought the designer had made a mistake; this kind of thing was completely unpilotable by humans.

It was so fast that it exceeded the limits of what a normal human could react to.

But seeing how easily the girl in front of him could keep up with the operating system's reaction speed, he had to admit that there really were such people in the world.

Is this what they call...?

Are they a new kind of human?

Teresa: ...

12 month 20 day.

In the early morning, the Federation's Third Fleet, led by Colonel Vulcan, departed from Luna II to serve as the vanguard of the first step of Operation Star One—the Solomon Campaign. The Fifth and Ninth Fleets also departed shortly afterward.

On the 22nd, General Tiam led the Second Combined Fleet, along with the Second, Eleventh, and Thirteenth Fleets, from the Luna II to Fort Solomon.

During this time, Denise was getting used to her new body.

Denise slowly closed her eyes in the cockpit.

"I feel it now……"

Since entering this space, she has been able to sense two very strong beings and one half-baked being.

“Amro Ray, Char Aznable, and Lara Shin.”

The real beginning of the feud between the mule and the duck.

And the birth of the cosmic ghost.

"How about we save Lala Sin?"

Suddenly, Dinisa had a flash of inspiration.

If he saves Lala, it's the same as saving Mule's spiritual girlfriend and Char's mother. This would not only prevent Mule from being unable to go to space, but Char, with his mother's power, might actually be willing to fully enter the political arena and become a 'clown'.

"Sigh... I'm daydreaming again."

I fell asleep without even realizing it while I was coding.
