The shining Shoko Toyokawa

"Nina, are you really not going to give it another thought?"

Subaru's simulation chamber is adjacent to Nina's, and someone else is currently using the chamber.

The black-haired 'young lady' looked around nervously for a moment before advising the girl trapped in the 'bandit den'.

"Kaius has nearly a hundred warships, equipped with the Federation's most advanced mobile suits, and many of the Federation's elite pilots.

They are not the pilots in Nyx-13 who have almost no actual combat experience.

It's also not like the subsequent ship-to-ship battles, where the troops you encounter are only equipped with pitiful machines like the GM 2.

In the battle after this, you might really die!"

"I know," the girl said calmly, as if she didn't care at all. "Everyone has died before, so I won't be any different..."

Subaru was almost speechless, his whole body looked like a young plant wilted in the sun.

"You can't win, idiot! The gap in strength between the moderates, the Thornless, and the radicals represented by Caius, is simply too great!

The radicals naturally have the support of most of the army, but what about Wu Ci?

What else do you have besides passion?

You don't even have enough pilots to operate mobile suits, so you're here, right?

How can such an organization defeat Caius?"

"You know you'll win... before you fight?"

Nina stared at Subaru and asked, "You have to know you'll win in order to fight?"

"Because you know you're likely to lose, you give up, surrender, and do nothing?"

"It's your freedom to choose what you want, but please don't tell me what to do!"

At this moment, the simulation cabin in front of Rencai opened, and a tall man with several scars on his face, who looked tough at first glance, walked out. He strode up to the girl and looked down at her.

The girl showed no sign of weakness, straightened her waist and looked at him.

"Well, my friend recently injured his back, so please forgive me for looking a little arrogant!"

Subaru subconsciously pulled the girl, fearing that he would make a mistake again and PK with the strong man.

"I think she's fine!" The burly man snorted and said indignantly, "You little brat, let's see who the real hero is now!"

This burly man was none other than George Martin, the retired veteran whom Rencai and Maya first met yesterday.

Unlike yesterday's greasy work clothes, today he was wearing his military uniform.

It was a uniform that was different from the Federation Army's uniform. The main color was military green, simple and capable, and easy to move around in. It was the uniform of the Earth Unified Army.

Now the Earth Unified Army has been disbanded and reorganized into the Earth Federation Army.

This uniform is no longer considered active duty equipment, except for some veterans who still keep it.

It is commonly found in the collections of some military fans.

"Okay!"

Under Subaru's devastated gaze, the girl accepted the challenge without hesitation.

"Let me try. Has the former Gaulish Tiger now become a sick cat?"

'The Tiger of Gaul?!'

Subaru looked at the girl with some admiration;

For those who like to study MS battles, or even ordinary people who only watch short videos, many people know the name of the Gaul Tiger.

He was not born in Gaul, but he had made great military achievements in Gaul. A modified Tiger killed the more advanced mobile suits of the anti-unification army and set a record of 20+ mobile suits in the battles in Gaul alone.

In the subsequent Battle of Britain, he also made great contributions.

Many bloggers that Subaru likes to read have commented on him: if his country had not wavered in the Unified War, and he had entered the front line earlier, the number of MS kills he would have achieved would have multiplied several times.

An and Subaru disagreed with this statement. In the cruel battlefield, there were many aces and even super aces killed by stray bullets.

If he had joined earlier, he might have fallen before becoming the 'Tiger of Gaul'.

Although this is true from a universal perspective, it does not affect Subaru's admiration for this elite pilot.

For an elite driver like this, beating a young rookie would be a piece of cake!

How can I lose when a dragon hits my face?! Tell me how I lose?!

Chapter 32: It doesn’t matter, we will win!

Subaru quickly entered his own simulation cabin.

"Okay, who will be my first enemy?"

This "young lady" has a hobby that is consistent with her status, but not quite.

Due to the tense situation and wars in recent years, more reserve and active MS pilots are needed. With the strong support of various countries, MS competitions have

It has become a popular sporting event. It is said that various MS-related companies on the moon are planning to hold a physical MS competition.

Just like the old F1 racing events, mobile suits manufactured by various companies compete on the track (physical),

However, because it is too expensive and dangerous, this kind of physical battle between real people operating MS only exists in urban legends.

The current level of MS competition is about the same as that of equestrianism in the old days. Most enthusiasts cannot afford to buy their own simulators.

Subaru, this little rich woman, is the type who can afford it and whose family doesn't care too much about her.

If we only talk about playing simulated battles with AI, her skills can be said to be quite good.

But I have very little experience fighting with real people.

Therefore, after winning three games in a row, she felt incredible, but also built up a little confidence.

"Maybe I'm a genius too, who knows, hehe..."

"Anhe, are you ready? If you are, let's get started."

Looking at the blonde girl wearing a mask in the communication, Subaru's mouth corners were harder to suppress than AK.

Although the older sister opposite was wearing a mask, if you are someone who pays attention to the news about MS, I'm afraid many people would recognize her——

One of the former vice presidents of East Asia Heavy Industries, Sanjiao Chuhua.

In Subaru's stereotype, the vice president must be very busy every day, so how could he have time for driving simulation?

This wave, this wave has the advantage on my side!

"I'm ready,"

With her confirmation, the game began.

This is a map that is very familiar to anyone who has purchased a simulator in the past two years or upgraded their system.

Aurora, the burning star of hope!

This map is based on a real battle, the Battle of Aurora.

At that time, each major country had independently or cooperatively produced thermonuclear engines and spacecraft on a large scale.

Aurora, the star of hope between the Earth and the Moon, is still the only base in space where humans can stay for a long time.

Even the crew members who develop the moon, after working in the microgravity environment of the moon for a long time, have to return to Aurora and recuperate in a simulated gravity environment for a period of time before they can go back to work.

At that time, the importance of Aurora was self-evident. The Aurora Colony Satellite Management Committee was composed of personnel from various countries. They charged equal fees based on the space missions and the number of recuperation personnel of each country.

However, America and some of its allies were fighting for space dominance. As they fought hard to gain space territory, they gradually fell behind. So they set their sights on Aurora.

February 14, 2027

Just as people on Earth and in space were immersed in the romantic atmosphere of Valentine's Day, the battle for Aurora broke out.

In this battle, the control of Aurora, the star of hope, was nearly taken away by America several times.

Fierce conflicts broke out between the Multinational Alliance and America in space and in the colonies.

In the end, the war resulted in nearly 100,000 casualties and ended with the victory of the multinational alliance.

But what is even more terrifying is that in this war that lasted less than a month, America had planned to drop several asteroids with a diameter of more than 100 meters on the heads of the enemy countries.

Moreover, these asteroids have been deployed and are waiting for the order from the commander-in-chief.

Unlike in science fiction movies, such weapons, once they begin to accelerate outside the atmosphere and spread Minovsky particles, cannot be intercepted at long distances.

As for intercepting it within the atmosphere, forget it. Even without Minovsky particles, such a supermassive weapon would have a speed of over Mach 50, and because its surface is not smooth, its trajectory within the atmosphere is difficult to predict, making it impossible to intercept.

After the incident was exposed, the multinational alliance and most of the people finally no longer had any illusions. People shouted to turn "them" into "us".

A more brutal unification war has begun...

At this time, the Aurora in the simulation cabin was burning fiercely. Not only the living area, but also the forest was swept into it. The fire extinguishing system failed in the battle, and the wreckage of MS was everywhere.

In this map, there are no restrictions on means. The first one to kill the enemy wins.

Of course, in order to determine the outcome as quickly as possible, this map is not more than 40 kilometers in size, and the enemy and our MS are confined to a circular area.

Although both sides are randomly refreshed, as long as there is a big move, if you are refreshed to the "sky" continent, you will be discovered as soon as you move. Only in a simulated battle can the enemy be so easily discovered.

Subaru's eyes first swept across the two 'continents' and 'sky' above him.

I didn't see any movement, so I started the MS carefully.

But when she was looking around in a daze in the burning forest, she suddenly met Chu Hua who was walking up the hillside.

Subaru was stunned for a moment, then quickly aimed and fired at the enemy plane hundreds of meters away.

But Chuhua's reaction was much faster than hers. Almost at the same time as he discovered Subaru, he lowered his machine and hid under the slope.

The girl's first beam of light, as expected, missed.

"Don't try to escape!"

The girl quickly maneuvered the plane to jump up, but there was no enemy plane behind the slope!

"not good!"

Subaru realized something was wrong and was about to descend when his vision was instantly covered by a white light.

If it had been a real fight, she would have been dead.

"Never attack if the enemy knows your position and you are unsure of his."

Chu Hua's voice on the line was calm, as if winning was a matter of course.

In fact, it is true. If you can't open MS well, how can you be a qualified 'entrepreneur'?

Once, someone refused to pay the balance after receiving the MS. At that time, because he had lost an important person, a certain blond entrepreneur was extremely manic. He said nothing, but just went back in his MS to reason with the old man.

This entrepreneur seems to think that the technology of opening MS is also part of the measure of whether a person is strong.

So, work harder than anyone else.

"I understand, Miss Triangle..."

This has been going on for seven years.

Subaru said dejectedly, "Next time, I'll be more careful."

The communication between the two was disconnected, and the simulation cabin returned to the initial interface.

The players have a few minutes to rest and prepare for the next battle.

"It doesn't matter, we will win!"

The black-haired girl encouraged herself, adjusted her mentality, and prepared for the next game.

But when it came to the part where the contestants were 'saying harsh words' to each other, she couldn't hold it in any longer.

Just because the opponent who appeared in the communication was too beautiful... What the hell!?

"Anhe, are you ready?"
