Machine Lion Roar

Zeon's secret base, underground hangar.

Ina, with a trace of fatigue on her face, walked out of the cockpit of Apsalas.

Before she had time to take off her helmet, she was stopped by the approaching Kinhas.

"Aina. What's the situation?"

A trace of unnoticeable concern flashed in Kinhas' eyes, but Aina, who raised her hand and took off her helmet, did not see the trace of concern, but just nodded slightly.

"Well, the operation is normal. The energy output is very stable. To be honest, this is more stable than the previous reactor. Brother, it seems that Apsalas can move to the next stage."

"Yeah. I know this. What I want to know now is whether Aina is uncomfortable in your body?"

But Kinhas didn't care about this.

As the designer of Apsalas, he naturally knows the limits that Apsalas can reach now.The only thing he cares about is whether the V engine secretly transported by the mysterious MISS.Q will have any adverse effects on Aina.

"Body?" Aina was taken aback, after raising her hand subconsciously, she shook her head.

"No. My body is very good."

At this time, before Kenias could speak, a lazy voice sounded.

"It's really disappointing! I didn't expect Major General Kinhas to be such a suspicious man. You know, such a man won't be liked by too many women."

"Ms. MISS.Q!?"

Upon hearing this voice, Kinas' face changed, and then he showed a respectful look, turning around and bending slightly in the direction of the sound.

"Good afternoon. Ms. MISS.Q."

"Good afternoon. Major General Kinhas."

Under Aina's gaze, a tall woman wearing Zeon women's military uniform really leaned on the door and looked here with a smile on her face.

It seems to have caught Aina's gaze, and the woman with long flame-like hair also looked at Aina and sent out a friendly greeting first.

"Good afternoon. Are you the sister of Major General Kinhas, Aina Sakhalin? First time! I am MISS.Q. I'm very sorry! For some reason, I cannot disclose my real name at will."

"MISS.Q?"

In fact, Aina had heard this rather weird name from Kinhas when the latest Apsaras was off the assembly line.

But Aina didn't make too many or even unnecessary associations.Because she knew that the woman who only used MISS.Q to show her lost in the X3 engine is now the key to the success of the Apsalas project.

"What? Miss Aina still finds the name MISS.Q unacceptable?"

Seeing the strange flash on Aina's face, the fiery red woman just smiled and said casually.

"No. It's rude. Ms. MISS.Q. This is Aina Sakhalin. First time meeting! Very nice to meet you."

At this moment, Aina fully demonstrated her words and deeds as a famous lady.Even if the Sakhalin family is present, only Aina and Kinhas remain.

With a smile on his face, MISS.Q stretched out his hand and shook Aina, then looked up at Apsalas, who was being surrounded by many maintenance personnel and began to carry out maintenance and improvement according to the plan.

"Aina, can you call it this way? How does Apsalas drive? It looks like this big guy is very heavy."

Aina thought for a while, then said:

"In fact, when I first started, I had the same idea as Ms. MISS.Q, but when I actually drove it, I found that it was far more flexible than I imagined. In addition, the new V engine this time at least makes Ah Psaras’ maneuverability has increased by 30%."

"Oh? In that case, I'm relieved too! At least, the current Apsaras has not lived up to the expectations of Chief Kilian. Aina, you are also tired. Go back and rest first."

MISS.Q nodded, and while approving Aina's opinion, she also advised Aina to take a break.

Aina glanced at Kinhas, and when she realized that her brother had the same opinion, she nodded obediently and turned to leave.But, before Aina took a few steps away, MISS.Q suddenly said:

"Oh, yes! Aina, don't forget to feed your kitty when you are resting, so that the cute kitty will run out of the room because of hunger and look for food everywhere."

"Eh? Kitten? Is that the kitten I adopted?" Aina was taken aback and looked at Kinias subconsciously.

Kinas nodded silently, and echoed MISS.Q's words: "Yes. Aina. I know the job of testing Apsalas is very hard, but at least you have to take care of the kitten. "

Hearing this, Aina nodded.

"I see. Brother, Ms. MISS.Q, I assure you that I will take care of my kitten."

"Did the kitten run out?"

While leaving the underground hangar, Aina couldn't help but ask this question in her mind.However, this question did not last long before it was dispelled by a group of people who turned from another channel.

"Miss Ina!"

As soon as we met, the burly man walking in the front was Norris Bakard who became Aina’s guard during the previous battle.

"Norris. You are here. This time the guard has worked hard for you."

During the multiple test flights of Apsalas after the successful installation of the V engine, Norris faithfully piloted the Rugen tactical reconnaissance aircraft in front to provide Apsalas with real-time aeronautical information.

"No. This is what I should do. Miss Ina."

As always, in the face of Aina's gratitude, Norris did not show too much emotion, but had a strict face and said unchanging words.

"Really? According to today's test results, I am afraid that the first stage has been completed. In the days to come, you have to rely on your strength. Norris."

"Yes! I will do my best to protect Miss Ina."

After Norris took the many soldiers standing behind him, standing at attention and saluting, he spoke again:

"Miss Aina. Before you walked fast, Major General Kinhas has not had time to inform you that there will be a celebration party tonight."

"Celebration party?"

Aina was taken aback for a moment, but was relieved soon.

Now that the V engine has confirmed its powerful power, Apsalas naturally also meets the conditions for entering the next stage.

Do not.

It should be said that after the V engine became a part of Apsalas, Apsalas was enough to surpass most of the plans and enter the final plan.

As the test pilot of Apsaras, Aina knew this very well.

When countless thoughts flew past Aina's mind, Aina just nodded lightly.

"I see. Norris, I will be there on time."

"Yes! Miss Ina. Please feel free to rest. Let us take care of it here!"

"Well, please! Norris."

Saying goodbye to Norris, Aina, who returned to the room, started looking around for the first time.

As a result, Aina saw at a glance the little cat running around in the mouth of MISS.Q and Kinhas, lying quietly on the small bed Aina had prepared earlier.

"kitten?"

Ina tried to shout.

Seeing that the pure white cat's ears trembled slightly, he raised his head and glanced at Ina, then lay his head down on the small bed, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Upon seeing this, Aina was not surprised.

After all, before coming here, she had seen cats raised by other clan elders have similar behaviors. Therefore, Aina also summarized the behavior of pure white cats at this moment.

However, Aina didn't know that this pure white cat was watching Aina secretly.

"Not affected? When did that woman become so kind."

The pure white cat opened his eyes slightly and secretly observed Aina who was cleaning the room.For a long time, the pure white cat still couldn't feel from Aina's body that it should, no, it was a certain energy fluctuation that she absolutely felt.

In doubt, the pure white cat raised his head and looked at Aina who was cleaning the room again.

And Aina, who was cleaning the room, also noticed the pure white cat's sight.

"Kitten, what's the matter? Are you hungry?"

After Aina looked at the pure white cat who raised her head to look at her, she immediately took out a pack of unopened cat food from the drawer next to her.

"Do you want to eat? Kitten."

Aina shook the cat food. While shaking the cat food in the package, she tried to attract the pure white cat.

The next second, the pure white cat lying on the small bed moved.

It stood up, jumped slightly from Xiaochuangshan to Aina's feet, then circled the book circle around Aina, and glanced at the rattling cat food bag under Aina's shaking. He walked out the door without looking back.

"Hey, wait! Kitty. There's food here! Don't go out!"

The pure white cat walked freely, but Aina looked at the cat food in her hand in surprise, and quickly tried to call the pure white cat.The result can be imagined.

When Aina chased out the door, the pure white cat had already disappeared in the aisle.

"I ran away so soon."

Looking at the aisle with no one on either side, Aina could only hold the cat food in her hand, close the door, and prepare the clothes she would wear for the evening celebration banquet.

He turned his eyes back to the pure white cat, which is the white cat zero body.

Before, it noticed the whole process of the sudden resurrection of the Apsaras, which was smashed by Kinhas and encountered Lei Mingkai and others, when it was about to fail because of the lack of a reactor.

However, even though White Cat Zero has witnessed the whole process, due to the existence of a certain woman, White Cat Zero does not dare to get too close.In the previous encounter, White Cat Zero was not sure if the other party had seen its identity.

After all, in the memory of the White Cat Zero, this weak and poor cat body was formed after the collapse of the hometown world and the living in the world of Lelouch.

however.

Regardless of whether the other party has seen his identity or not, White Cat Zero must go to the underground hangar in person to see the engine installed on Apsalas with his own eyes.

Along the way, the white cat zero-style familiarity swiftly moved to the underground hangar along the pipeline on the ceiling.

In the aisle below, from time to time pass by soldiers pushing drinks and food.In this secret base that has begun to implement material control, perhaps this is an opportunity to open up an appetite to eat delicious food.

Therefore, while pushing the dining car and laughing about what new life will be ushered in after the completion of the Apsalas project, the soldiers didn’t find the little one that sneaked all the way from the overhead pipeline to the underground hangar. White cat.

"It should be here."

Along the intricate pipeline, the White Cat Zero quickly came to a huge space. On the dome 100 meters above the ground, there was a huge screen door with a diameter of at least 30 meters.

White Cat Zero-style stared at him. In the center of this huge space, was the target of White Cat Zero-style trip, Apsalas.

Now, just half an hour before the celebration banquet, all the R&D personnel who participated in the celebration banquet have put aside their work and headed to the large conference hall where the celebration banquet was held.Stay here, and only those Zeon soldiers on daily rotation.

The White Cat Zero-style glanced randomly, and he had already figured out the number of soldiers scattered around.

"Is it just less than ten people? Really careless!"

The white cat raised its front paws in zero form, leaped suddenly, and jumped directly from the pipeline on the ceiling to the wooden box placed below.

"Who!"

Although there were less than ten people guarding Apsalas, their alertness was very high. The White Cat Zero only stepped on the wooden box lightly and was discovered by these people.

However, these alert soldiers couldn't help lowering their muzzles after seeing the appearance of White Cat Zero.

"What! It turned out to be Miss Aina's cat. Gee! Kitty, why didn't you go to enjoy the banquet with Miss Aina, but came here instead. Is it possible that you came here to catch the mouse?"

After seeing White Cat Zero, one of the soldiers said something that made others laugh.

"Hahahaha! What are you talking about? Where did the mice come from here? It's all a mess of gasoline! If it were me, I would rather choose a banquet with a delicious aroma than here!!"

Sitting on the wooden box, the white cat calmly looked at these Zeon soldiers who were talking and laughing with each other to pass the time, then got up, jumped from the wooden box to the ground, and walked towards Apsalas. .

"Hey! Kitty. Don't go there! It's not your cat climbing frame!"

As soon as the soldier who ridiculed White Cat Zero Style saw White Cat Zero Style walking towards Apsalas, he immediately took a few steps forward and stopped in front of White Cat Zero Style.

However, what he ushered in was nothing but the white cat's zero ignorance.

"Hey! Wait! That's not where you can go!"

Seeing that he was ignored by a little kitten, the soldier immediately started to try to pinch the neck of the pure white cat's fate.

As a result, what was ushered in was nothing but the white cat's zero-style paw.

"Huh!"

The cold light flashed, and the back of the Zeon soldier who tried to catch the white cat in Zero Form suddenly became bloody.

"Ah!! My hand!!"

The sore part of the torn flesh and skin instantly penetrated the Zeon soldier's mind, causing him to drop the idea of ​​trying to catch the white cat on the spot, leaving him holding the bloody right hand repeatedly and howling.

As everyone knows, this is already the white cat's zero-style paws.

If the white cat zero-style waved its paws in accordance with the powerful force of the body, even if it was only one ten thousandth, the Zeon soldier would have died.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

Suddenly, there was a muffled sound one after another--the sound of the Zeon soldiers stationed here falling to the ground.

Even the Zeon soldier holding his bloody right hand inevitably rolled his eyes and fell to the ground without warning.

This is not done by White Cat Zero, but by someone else.

A cold light flashed in the white cat Zero's eyes, jumped, jumped onto the lift of Apsalas between several takeoffs and landings, and looked back at a dim corner.

"Da! Da! Da!"

With the sound of heavy footsteps stomping on the ground, a figure shrouded in a huge cloak, visually at least two meters tall, slowly walked out of the shadow.

Under this cloak, White Cat Zero cannot see the real face of this figure clearly.

The only thing he knew was that under the hood that concealed his face, there was a pupil shining with red light, and that cold breath that was not a human being.

"Isn't it a living body?"

The white cat's zero-style claws flashed, and the front claws that could break the gold and iron suddenly popped out.
