Then you have to spend a lot of money to buy it-and this is what happened in the end.

As for why the two of them came here...

Luo Dongchuan recalled his experience so far.

——When the Wolfe team disbanded, the members had a little discussion.

The end result is that they don't intend to just wait in vain back on Earth.

Instead, choose to exert your own initiative as much as possible——

Before Red One returns, learn as much as possible about the various situations in this world and the forces intertwined behind them, so as to facilitate future operations.

Cobatro said that he wanted to inquire about some information in the Human Revolutionary League.

Wolf, who went to the EU, said he was very concerned about the encounter that happened that day.

And Luo Dongchuan and Feluti came to the Middle East where the forces are complicated.

I plan to start from here and collect some useful information for myself...

…this is the ideal situation.

Who would have thought that being a mercenary is just for the purpose of collecting information, and it's just a play on the spot——

In the end, it was really because of Feluti that he was forced to spend a huge sum of money to buy a combat mobile suit.

He also owed a debt because of this, which is to the extent that he needs to earn a commission within a few days to pay it off.

And in order to quickly accept the task, their preparations had to be hasty...

It has come to such a point.

"...Hey. All right."

And that's where the memories end.Luo Dongchuan sighed for an unknown number of times today.

But he didn't continue to preach.

After all, he has a certain pedantic reserve as an adult, and he doesn't really want to pull down to vent his anger on children.

Re-boarding the body, he used the few energy sources again to send weak electric wave messages to the surroundings.

He was a little hopeless at first——

"...we hear you. Please tell us where you are. Go to the rescue now!"

But in the end, I heard such a message from the communication loop...?

***

After counting 10 minutes.

"...so. Are you really... er. fledgling mercenaries?"

Back at the camp, looking at the familiar object in front of him, Yu Xiao's gaze was a little strange.

After he and Ai Ji picked up the two people, he also learned the whole picture of the incident from Luo Dongchuan - of course, he didn't say anything about the Red One.

He just pretended that the person next to him was a son of some rich family who used his family savings to get angry and wanted to become a mercenary, and he was his bodyguard.But this does not prevent Yu Xiao from knowing the whole picture of the matter - after all, the body of the red one is himself.

"...Yeah. That's right! That's it."

And I saw Luo Dongchuan smiling with his arms crossed.One sentence even had to be answered three times.

From time to time, he gently touched Feluti with his arm, signaling that she should also put on a grateful expression.

"So, what's your destination?"

Aiji was also pondering and asking questions at this time.From his body, one can see a subtle questioning atmosphere of "why do I always encounter such accidents these days...".

"It's VTX. VTX Consolidated."

To this, Luo Dongchuan also answered neatly.

"Is that so—it seems that we are in the same direction. However, since you are new mercenaries...why did you receive the VTX order?"

Yu Xiao then asked.He did remember that when the wise old man released the mission, he specially emphasized the three words "strength".

Although the driving skills of the two people in front of me are trustworthy-but they have no background and no reputation.

If you want to take such a list, I'm afraid it's still a little short.

"Ah. Haven't you heard of it?"

As for this, Luo Dongchuan's expression revealed a bit of surprise.He went on to explain:

"...VTX Consolidated Enterprises has recently widely released recruitment requirements throughout the industry. The conditions are excellent, and even new... um, newcomer mercenaries like us will give generous treatment without discrimination. In fact, When we signed up, the number of people convened seemed to have reached four digits..."

However, this seemingly steady answer aroused a little uneasiness in Yu Xiao's heart.

VTX... On the one hand, it is talking about gathering "capable" elites.

On the other hand, it is unconditional to assemble such a large-scale force.

This... I'm afraid it's not just a simple security guarantee, or one or two armed conflicts.

This time, the opponent they have to deal with.What kind of guy is it...?

Chapter 160 The Fourth Track Elevator

...However, even if the bottom of my heart is full of worries.

But you can't let this emotion control your actions.

Yu Xiao immediately calmed down, and turned to settle Luo Dongchuan and Fei Luti with Ai Ji.

And it's almost time for the shift change——looking at from the tent

Unexpectedly, these two guys quickly agreed to take each other for a ride.

The action in "Machine Warfare VS", after all, cannot replace the rest of real life.

Walking out of the single room of the Siegfried system, you can reach his bedroom after a few corners.

The living space in the dormitory inside Alves is quite narrow.The interior structure without windows gives a somewhat depressing feeling.

Even the bed is similar to the structure of the wooden bed in the student dormitory in Yu Xiao's previous life.

…Honestly speaking, as a bedroom, the atmosphere can be said to be extremely bad.

——But for Yu Xiao, here is still a place where he can fall asleep easily.

***

The next day.

——The result of his inquiries to Kalinin later was that the members in charge of the V operation would complete the transfer of personnel around the afternoon, and then assemble in the hangar.

So at this moment, Yu Xiao thinks that he still has a considerable amount of time to spend in the Siegfried system.

And after he re-entered the equipment wrapped in red jelly, Yu Xiao at this time had long since lost the previous discomfort.

He just closed his eyes silently, waiting for the Siegfried system to deeply synchronize his thoughts with his clone in the distance.

When he opened his eyes again—

Yu Xiao was already on top of the shaking transport vehicle.Because of the time difference, there is only a faint light and shadow on the desert sky at this moment.

Choosing to start marching when the sky is just dawn, I am afraid this is also an indispensable race against the clock.

"Oh. Are you awake?"

And aware of his movements, Ai Ji, who was driving the car, asked casually.

"Well... Good morning, Brother Aiji."

"Good morning. But I thought you'd sleep a little longer."

Unremarkable conversation.But Yu Xiao also got some useful information from it.

It seems that when I am not deeply synchronized with here.

The fictional personality that takes over the domination of the body will act in the plan that "produces the least problem".

Sleep if you can, and don't cause topics if you can. …Indeed, that's what makes people less suspicious.

[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who has known me for ten years, the source app!It’s really easy to use. I use it to read and listen to books to pass the time while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here]

Yu Xiao then turned his head and looked forward.

The feeling of what one sees... first of all, it is very different.

I saw the building complex in front of me, revealing the sense of technology of the future city everywhere.

And so rich and prosperous that it can be said that it is out of tune with the surrounding desert.

Among them -

Whether it was the Oriental Pearl Tower that Yu Xiao had seen in his previous life, or the Burj Khalifa that he had only heard about in rumors and videos, I am afraid that under this building, they all showed a somewhat eclipsed look.

"Wow. The one in front is...?"

And Yu Xiao couldn't help asking this question.

"—That's the branch of VTX in this area. What, you were surprised?"

"... a little bit."

"Hey. There is no way. After all, for you who have lost your memory, this is the first time you have seen such a huge enterprise. From the factory to the dormitory to the office, it is the result of gathering in one place. That's it."

"That's right...then, what is the 'tower' in the middle?"

"That tower."

Edge shrugged.

"—It used to exist here. The remains of the 'fourth track elevator'."

"The fourth track elevator...?"

Regarding this, Yu Xiao asked with great interest.

After all, in his memory, there are only three orbital elevators in the world view of "Gundam 00".belong to the three major countries in the world.

And indeed, in the original plot in the Middle East, there are indeed plans to build additional orbital elevators.

But because of various reasons, in the end it only stopped at the level of the design plan...

However, in this world, has it been put into practice by anyone?

"Yeah. 'Orbital elevator' and the like, do you have any impressions now, Akatsuki?"

"...I still know a little bit about the basics. Is it a space resource development facility once owned by the three major powers?"

Yu Xiao nodded.Indicated that Aiji can continue to explain.

"That's right. And... the building over there is the fourth orbital elevator independent of the three major powers—if it can be built."

"Beyond the three major countries?"

"That's right. It's just like what you see now. This track elevator belongs to the VTX joint venture... To be precise, it belongs to its president, Dharma Godwin."

Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Aiji also narrated the relevant information.

"It was first funded and established by him. As a part of the so-called "Earth Defense Force" plan-it is intended to build an orbital elevator that is truly open to the world and has no borders."

"It went very smoothly at the beginning. With the reputation of the battle hero and the profitable vision of the orbital elevator business, indeed... it has attracted many people who are willing to participate in the investment. Even the always staid Azadistan, I also agree to donate a piece of soil suitable for building track elevators to VTX free of charge—”

"...But problems also occurred not long after. The overly complicated sources and flows of funds have brought the construction of the track elevator to a stalemate, and there seem to be quite serious disputes about the distribution of benefits after its completion. I will not give specific details. It's clear...but in the end the funding chain broke. The whole building has also become an unfinished project..."

"And soon there is no need to continue. Because the arrival of Phystom, the three orbital elevators that were formed were destroyed together. However, this semi-finished product, because it did not reach the attack height of Phystom, was lucky to escape one Jie. There are even rumors that if human beings want to go into space again in the future, they may have to start from this."

"...but there wasn't much to do after that. It's just that VTX will definitely not give up the infrastructure construction in this area that has been completed, so it simply built a branch on the spot and continued to maintain the track elevator. Inheritance. Needless to say, that President Dharma is quite far-sighted—because in the future, most of the Eurasian continent will be reduced to a battlefield due to Beta's aggression."

"…I see."

Hearing that this was neither a short nor a long story, Yu Xiao nodded slightly.

And his gaze once again stared at the engineering relics of the orbital elevator not far away.

The scene of this unfinished Tianzhu ruins standing on the wilderness, in his eyes at the moment, is so magnificent that it looks like a caricature.

"The vehicle in front. Please stop. If you entrust relevant personnel, please show your valid certificate and cooperate with us to check. Repeat, the vehicle in front, please stop—"

At this time, the sound from the loudspeaker also reached the ears of everyone present.
