Machine Lion Roar

"A civilization we never knew?!"

Under Yang Nuowen's narration, Gomez and Milad frowned.

After waiting for a while, Gomez said:

"That's it for today! Millard, Director Yang Nuowen..."

Gomeston paused, then looked back at Lei Mingkai who had been silent.

"And our hero, Lieutenant Lei Mingkai, go back to rest first! I believe that the battle just now made you tired."

This is undoubtedly an eviction order that cannot be refused.

But Milad and Lei Mingkai had no objections, and Lei Mingkai even took action to drag Yang Nuowen away, who was reluctant to leave.

After several struggles, Yang Nuowen, who tried to stay, finally got on the elevator leading to the ground and finally recovered.

"Colon Millard. Is this serious?"

Yang Nuowen recalled what he had just said, and only then did he realize what the speech represented.

"probably."

Millard didn't say it clearly, but after a casual response, he waited quietly for the elevator to return to the ground.

It wasn't until the elevator reached the ground that Milad stopped Lei Mingkai who wanted to leave with Yang Nuowen.

"Second Lieutenant, come with me."

Milad, who didn't know why he stopped Lei Mingkai, turned around and walked to another elevator on his own.

That's the elevator to the floor where Millard's office is located.

It wasn't until the elevator separated Milad and Lei Mingkai from the outside world that Milad, who was facing Lei Mingkai, slowly spoke.

"Second Lieutenant Lei Mingkai. Do you think we still need pilots fighting on the front line now?"

With this opening, Lei Mingkai knew what Millard was going to say next.

The success of GHOST-X9 has threatened the existence of manned aircraft and pilots who drive them.

Especially when the upper strata of the integration of the Earth are facing a high casualty rate even in the period of the Great Galactic Immigration, the balance in the heart may already be strong in combat performance, even if it is destroyed, it will not let it. The drone where the precious pilot died was tilted.

Of course, there is another more important factor.

That is, in the past few decades, when encountering a powerful and terrifying backbone fleet, the ship group encountered with it is basically only an end.

Under such a severe situation, the Supernova Project and the birth of GHOST-X9 will naturally be affected by it.

Lei Mingkai weighed it in his mind before carefully expressing his thoughts.

"Colonel. I don't know the answer to this question. But I know that our human footsteps have already set foot in every corner of the galaxy. Then, it also represents the most elite group of human beings, and naturally it has to be discovered. , Or the alien civilization that is about to be discovered fights against the idea of ​​human beings from the earth and the unity of the earth."

At the end, Lei Mingkai also added one sentence.

"Compared with cold machinery, pilots who are capable of driving and can talk and laugh are more able to communicate with discovered civilizations, and get a better impression."

Lei Mingkai's words made Milad nodded.

Although Milad felt that Lei Mingkai had something in his words, it was also his judgment on the direction of the future integration of the earth.

"Yes. No matter how the times change, our latest sharp fighters always need to be piloted by the most powerful pilots among us. Only in this way can the concept of unity of our planet be spread to every part of the galaxy. corner."

"Colonel. Things have changed?"

Lei Mingkai asked knowingly.

Milad was silent.

Through the layer of glass, watching the sun gradually sinking into the mountains.

"Yes. The supernova project may have come to an end. Lieutenant Lei Mingkai, before the attack, General Gomes had already ordered me to disband the YF21 and YF19 development teams on the spot."

"Is that the drone? GHOST-X9."

When Lei Mingkai spoke, Milad was surprised.

Although the test site of GHOST-X9 was in the New Edward Flight Test Center, it entered the space test stage due to confidential work and short-to-nearly short ground tests. Even in the New Edward Flight Test Center, you can know X9 There are very few people.

"Second Lieutenant. You really surprised me! All aspects."

Speaking of the last, Milad looked at Lei Mingkai quite deeply.

Facing the inquiring gaze, Lei Mingkai answered calmly.

"As a pilot, it is necessary to have a detailed understanding of the enemies that may be faced in the future."

"Oh?"

Millard raised his eyebrows, and his conversation changed, as if to mention casually.

"The gendarmerie seems to have been a little idle recently."

"Well, this situation is busy enough for them now."

Lei Mingkai's gaze fell on the tarmac where the broken VF11 and VF4 were parked outside.

Among those who came and went, those with helmets printed with the word gendarme were particularly eye-catching.

"Huh. Just playing tricks. Lieutenant. Compared to you, Yong Dyson is much simpler."

Milad snorted, but his eyes didn't want to pursue the meaning of Lei Mingkai's words.

"The lieutenant's mind probably left flying and picking up girls. So, his behavior is easy to understand."

Lei Mingkai replied casually, but Millard replied with this unexpectedly.

"So, what about you? Second lieutenant. From the first day I saw you, I felt that you didn't explain it. Although I have not driven the YF21 myself, I know that if the YF21 has not passed the course of at least 120 hours, It’s impossible to get a driving license. And you? Ensign, how many hours of training did you have before?"

When Lei Mingkai boarded the plane for the first time, he successfully drove the amazing deeds of YF21 lift-off. After all, Millard took it out and asked Lei Mingkai as a doubt.

"Probably, I am a genius!"

In this regard, Lei Mingkai just smiled lightly and confidently claimed that he was a genius.

"Genius? Huh! It sounds like the same thing."

With a cold snort, the elevator that Milad and Lei Mingkai took finally reached the destination floor.

"Let’s stop here! Second Lieutenant. I will inform Yang Nuowen and Yong Dyson of this news later. As for that, it’s up to you. Whether it’s Director Garut or the team members. ."

"To understanding."

However, at the moment when the elevator doors were completely closed, Lei Mingkai heard Millard's sigh.

"Hopefully, there is still a chance!"

"Kay, what is he talking about?"

The zero voice of the white cat rang in Lei Mingkai's mind.

"It refers to Gam. Milad means that because of Gam, the earth unity side may change its mind."

Just now, General Gomes relentlessly chased guests, and it was most likely because of the appearance of Gamm that he wanted to contact the Earth Integration Headquarters directly.

It's just that it's the 30th anniversary now!

Coupled with the service of GHOST-X9, even if there is a response from the Earth Integration, it will not reply until the 30th anniversary is over.

But this period of time was the most important event that affected the development of later generations.

Thinking of this, Lei Mingkai patted the zero pose of the white cat lying on his shoulder.

"Forget it! You don't have to think about it. The next thing will turn all these unnecessary things into nothing."

The white cat's zero-type gaze changed, and then it became serious.

"The hands and feet I made on that X9 drone should not be discovered. It's just that those enemies named Gamm will appear again. Even if the humans here don't know where they came from, We should also have general goals."

"Well. If Gamm's arrival is not an accident, then they should be related to that MISS.E."

As the 30th anniversary of the victory of the First Star War is approaching, people living in the Earth circle have come to this MACROSS city built by the remaining humans since the end of the First Star War. Among them, waiting for the arrival of the anniversary.

In the sky, a helicopter is traversing MACROSS city according to the original flight trajectory, heading to the MACROSS city center, which stands in the center of the MACROSS city. Since the first interstellar war has survived, MACROSS-SDF1, the symbol of the Earth Unity Army.

"MISS.E, Miss Mia. In front of us is our humanity, the symbol of the unity of the earth, MACROSS-SDF1. Thanks to its protection, mankind has a chance to survive the first interstellar war."

Sitting in the helicopter, Matthew kept introducing the huge mountain-like battleship ahead to the two women sitting opposite him.

"SDF1! I really miss it!"

Suddenly, MISS.E's sigh made Matthew stunned.

Immediately, he smiled.

"It turns out that MISS.E has been to Macross before. Have you seen SDF1 here?"

MISS.E didn't deny it, but didn't admit it either, just said something quietly.

"Yes! I've seen it up close."

Then, instead of waiting for Matthew to speak, she took the lead in changing the subject.

"That's right. How about your relationship provider? Why didn't you see her?"

"Miss Mei Weng? Oh, she still has some things to deal with in Eden. I saw that there are still a few days before the memorial ceremony, so I let her handle the matter by herself before coming to Earth.

"is it?"

MISS.E nodded slightly.

"Then, let her come quickly! Otherwise you will miss the good show."

Matthew glanced deeply at SDF1 in the distance, then nodded slightly.

"Yes! You can never miss a good show."

But Mei Weng in the topic of Matthew and MISS.E is embarrassed at this moment.

In the old iron triangle, she was the only one standing alone in the waiting area, waiting for the space flight to the earth.

Originally, Yong Dyson had come to see him off.

But just now, Yong Dyson received a sudden call, dropped a few irrelevant words, turned around and disappeared into the waiting area on the spot.

Although Yong Dyson didn't say it explicitly, Mei Weng had already guessed that he could snatch Yong Dyson away from her. I am afraid that only flying.

And Garut?

Mei Weng looked down at the paper pinched by him.

"Sorry! Mei Weng. I remember!"

A short line of words has already explained why Garut did not come to see him off at this moment.

With sorrow, Mei Weng, who left Eden and headed to Earth, didn't know that Sharon, who was based on her feelings, was already on Earth waiting for her self-investment.
