Chapter 1693 The moon is out!

Under the dark night sky, in a base with bright lights and searchlights turned on, various explosions and human screams echoed one after another.

Under such circumstances, two Gundams successfully broke into a certain part of the base.

"Wow, uncle is making too much of a fuss, isn't he? Is this what he meant by attracting firepower?"

"Why do I feel like, you can clear out all the guards here by yourself without us having to do anything?"

Hathaway closed his eyes and sensed Carlod's complaints for a while, then explained while controlling the Cosi Gundam to land.

"Perhaps for him, this level of fighting is just a warm-up to attract firepower?"

"You saw the results of his real serious fighting."

"If we hadn't wanted to rescue people, he could have flattened the base with one attack."

"This level of noise is just right to prevent people in the base from becoming desperate."

"Carlod, take this map, go to this place, and bring the people out. I will guard outside to prevent our machines from being attacked by the guards."

Carlod looked at the map and pistol handed to him by Hathaway with a confused look on his face.

"No way, I'm going to save people? You think I'm a secret agent?"

Hathaway completely ignored Carlod's refusal and responded very directly.

"You have been in the black market for many years. You should know very well how to protect yourself and how to sneak around."

"You must have done a lot of things like digging for treasures in various ruins and selling them for money, so sneaking into a base that is not heavily guarded should be a piece of cake for you."

"So you don't have to pretend in front of me. You are more suitable to carry out this mission than me."

"Don't worry, you will get the reward after the job is done."

"Besides, if you perform well, maybe that uncle will look at you differently and, on a whim, take you in as his apprentice?"

After hearing what Hathaway said, Carlod couldn't help but be moved even though he knew that Hathaway was fooling him.

"Okay, I'll fall for your trick this time. Remember to come back and talk to the uncle for me. If it doesn't work, just teach me a few self-defense moves. His skills are so cool, I really want to learn them."

Hathaway waved his hand: "Go ahead, I'll keep watch for you."

Carlo: "Okay, I'll go then."

As he said that, Carlo jumped off the palm under the Gundam X, climbed into the base through a window, and began to sneak according to the map provided by Hathaway.

I don’t know if it’s because Lin Youde made too much noise at the East Gate, but along the way, Carlod encountered many white-coated researchers and various well-dressed people who were running away with all kinds of information.

But none of them noticed Carlod, who was hiding in the corners or crawling in the exhaust pipe.

Just like that, more than ten minutes later, Carlod arrived in front of a tightly closed door.

He took out the map and checked it several times with the small flashlight in his mouth to make sure he was in the right place. Then, Carlod took out a piece of wire and inserted it into the keyhole of the gate.

After a while, Carlod twisted his arms, and the door, which didn't look very advanced, opened with a click.

As soon as the door opened, Carlod heard a soft and sweet female voice.

"You finally came."

After opening the door, Carlod looked at the beautiful girl with long black hair standing in front of him in front of the door in confusion.

Compared to the calmness of the beautiful girl with long black hair, Carlod was confused for a while before he looked around.

"You don't have to look anymore. There's no one else here. The person you're looking for is me."

Carlod stopped what he was doing, took two steps back in confusion, and looked in awe at the sweet girl in front of him who was about his age.

"Do you know what I'm here for?"

The sweet girl nodded slightly, and Carlod shook his head in horror, asking with his calves trembling.

"monster?"

The girl shook her head.

"immortal?"

The girl shook her head.

"Then... the new humans?"

The girl nodded.

Carlod finally let go of his worries.

"Are all new humans so perverted?"

Carlod muttered something quietly, then suddenly realized that what he said didn't sound very nice and quickly covered his mouth.

Under the girl's gaze, Carlod seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and quickly put down his hand and the wire in his other hand and asked.

"Then... shall we go together?"

The girl replied softly, "Okay."

After saying that, the girl stretched out her hand.

Carlod looked at the girl's clean little hands, then looked at his own hands that were covered with rust and dust. He quickly wiped his hands on his clothes before pulling the girl's hand.

"Then let's go. Be careful not to be ..."

Before she finished her words, the sweet girl said, "Don't worry, everyone in this base has been attracted away by the uncle at the east gate."

"We just need to head this way now, and your partner will come to meet us."

When Carlod heard this, he turned around in surprise and looked at the girl's sweet face.

"How do you know so much?"

The sweet girl replied: "There are new humans among your companions, too."

Carlod slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, that's right, uncle said that the new humans seem to be able to communicate with each other using brain waves."

"Forget it, since you know all this, let's go."

Along the way, the girl followed Carlod very obediently, walking quickly all the way. Without any obstruction, the two arrived at the designated location.

"Carold, take her into the cockpit of the Gundam X. We will retreat immediately. The Earth Federation forces from other bases nearby are coming."

Hathaway's words made Carlod respond on the spot, and he took the girl onto the arm of Gundam X and returned to the cockpit. Then he let Gundam X fly out of the base with Cosier Gundam.

However, as soon as they flew out of the base, the girl suddenly spoke.

"It's too late. The pursuers are coming. Let us go and prepare for battle."

Carlod was confused: "Huh?"

Hathaway looked at Gundam X in surprise. Before he could open his mouth, he saw a beam of white light in the distance falling in a graceful arc onto the open space on his side.

"Do as she says. The pursuers are here."

Hearing Lin Youde say this, Hasavi did as he was told on the spot.

Looking at the three people who seemed to know everything, Carlod, an ordinary person, grabbed his hair in distress.

"So, what's going on? Can you tell me something I can understand? Please take care of me."

In response to this, the sweet girl lay on the seat behind Carlod and whispered.

"The moon is out."

Carlod: “???”

Hathaway: “Do you want to use that?”

Lin Youde: "Then use it. All the conditions are met. Let Carlod see it and let him understand what the Gundam he wants to sell is."

Hearing this, before Carlod could react, the sweet girl behind him stepped forward and said.

"Carlo, press this button."

Carlod was confused: "Ah? This?"

As Carlord pressed the button, the folding wings on the back of Gundam X unfolded on the spot, forming an X shape. At the same time, a gun barrel also unfolded from the back and hung on the shoulder of Gundam X.

Lin Youde: "Carrod, at 9 o'clock, move the muzzle up 45 degrees and aim at the sky."

In the cockpit of Gundam X, a sight appeared on the screen. Although Carlod was confused, he still did as he was told.

Then, he heard the girl next to him whisper.

"please."

Carlod: “???”

Before Carlod could ask.

The next moment, a thin beam of white light shot out from the moon and accurately hit Gundam X's chest.

The sudden burst of light startled Carlod.

But before he could open his mouth to ask, he saw a separate energy bar on the Gundam X's screen instantly fill up from 0% to 100%.

"Hold the grass!?"

As Carlod cursed, the X-folding wings that unfolded behind the Gundam X began to fill and shine with white light.

At the same time, the muzzle of Gundam X began to gather strong white light.

It was at this time that Carlod saw three small spots of light begin to shine and appear in the distant sky.

Carlod looked carefully and found that those were not the shining stars in the night sky, but three huge aircraft carriers with identification lights.

The gun muzzle of Gundam X was aimed squarely at the three aerial carriers.

"No way..."

As Carlod looked shocked, the girl beside him whispered.

"That's all right, Carlo."

"Ah? Oh, you mean to open fire?"

As the girl nodded, Carlod took a deep breath.

Although his basic knowledge of MS was very superficial, he understood that the aircraft carriers in the sky were at least ten kilometers away from here.

At such a long distance, ordinary attacks cannot hit or be effective.

But what Lin Youde and Hathaway said before, as well as the trusting look of the girl beside him, made him not ask any more questions. Instead, he took a deep breath and pulled the trigger.

The next moment, a strong light shot out from the muzzle on Gundam X's shoulder.

In an instant, Carlod's vision was covered by the strong white light.

A beam of white light that was at least 100 meters thick burst out from the ground, transforming into a white light that tore through the night sky, piercing through the entire night sky...

A few seconds later, several small spots of light burst out in the night sky.

The light beam on the shoulder of Gundam X gradually went out, and Carlod clearly saw that the light spots in the sky that originally represented three huge aerial carriers turned into exploding fireworks.

At this moment, Carlod was completely stunned.

"What, what is this?"

The girl next to him answered in a sweet voice.

"Moonlight Cannon. This is the most powerful weapon of this Gundam."

Carlod opened his mouth wide, his face full of shock: "Moonlight Cannon?"

The Shining Gundam was looking at the night sky, and Lin Youde whispered, "That's right, the Moonlight Cannon, which uses the microwave light from satellites launched from the moon to charge and fire satellite microwave cannons, commonly known as the Moonlight Cannon."

"Now, do you know why the Earth Federation wants to seize this Gundam?"

Carlod murmured in confusion: "I probably... figured it out..."

PS: This chapter is from the perspective of Carrod, so some things may be confusing to people who haven't watched Gundam X. I will explain them slowly in the next chapter.
