Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1356 The Claw Man Arrives

"Over there! Spare parts for Gunblasta Unit 4 have arrived! Take them!"

"V Gundam 2's arm has been connected, check the system!"

"Where are the spare parts for R-1? Why haven't they been delivered yet?!"

"Get out of the way! Don't block the road!"

Drei Kreuz has arrived at the GGG orbital base, and the supply of materials is in full swing. At the same time, the maintenance of the machine is also going on. This time, it is the most serious time since the establishment of Drei Kreuz, no, it should be the most serious time since the launch of [Dreistliga]. Although there are no casualties, almost all MS units are damaged, including the King Zhan Ya and King Kai, which are still fighting at the end. They also need major repairs. That is, [Dawn Erstellen (Creation)] and other successfully awakened [Dawn series] and the three demons of Shido Guang, Ryuki Hai, and Fenghuangji Feng do not need to be repaired. The former is completely regenerated, and the latter is repairing itself.

Although Ando Masaki's Sebasta is also a demon god and its overall core has not been thoroughly studied, its mechanical structure can still be directly repaired.

"Colonel Yang Hui! Could you please come and take a look over here?" The maintenance personnel in charge of maintaining the R-3 was called Yang Hui.

"Wait a minute." Yang Hui quickly checked all the systems of V Gundam Unit 1, and after confirming that everything was correct, he walked over and took the PAD to take a look. "What's the problem?"

"We are unable to adjust the adaptability of the T-link system and the psychoframe, so we have to trouble you." The maintenance worker scratched the back of his head, feeling very embarrassed.

“R-1也存在相同的问题？”同时搭载了T-Link和精神感应框架的机体有R-1和R-3，R-3出了问题，R-1多半也跑不掉。

"This..." The maintenance personnel pointed to the R-1 not far away. Yang Hui looked in the direction of his finger and understood what he meant.

Although the R-1 is a light MS like the R-3, and the armor is not heavy, the R-3 has the GN Super Dragoon, which is both offensive and defensive. In addition, the R-1's deformation structure is more fragile, so it is still under overhaul and has not yet reached the stage of the T-Link system and psychoframe.

"Leave three of you with me to handle R-3, and the rest of you go to R-1. Make sure you complete the rest of the preparations for R-1 before I finish my work here."

"Yes!"XN
Yang Hui is now the chief person in charge of the maintenance team. He is responsible for all the maintenance work, priority sorting, and personnel scheduling of all machines, including all the maintenance work of the [White Fortress]. It is Yang Hui's command that makes everyone less flustered, especially the members of the [Drestriga]. After all, it is also the first time for them to come into contact with such a tense and huge work.

"It's really busy." While Yang Hui and three others were busy with the maintenance work of R-3, Graham was drinking a can of drink in his hand and teasing Yang Hui leisurely.

"If you know I'm busy, just stay away and don't disturb me while I work." Yang Hui cursed angrily.

"I'm here to tell you that Cruz wants to talk to you about something. He called you but you didn't answer, so he asked me to come and see what's going on." Graham said with a smile.

Hearing this, Yang Hui's hands suddenly paused, and then he immediately returned to work without even looking at Graham: "Are you anxious?"

"A little bit." Graham drank his drink in one gulp and said, "I told him that you are very busy right now, but he still asked me to tell you to find time to call him back."

"..." Yang Hui was silent for a moment, then he sped up his movements. He set up the maintenance process in two or three minutes and called the three maintenance personnel who stayed behind. "I have already set up the basic process. After completion, focus on checking the connection nodes No. 3, No. 15, No. 51, and No. 99, as well as the electronic systems in Areas A, C, and F. If there are any problems, call Jie over. He should be able to handle it. If he can't handle it, leave it alone until I come back to handle it."

"Understood." X3
The three maintenance personnel also expressed their understanding of Yang Hui's sudden departure. After all, Yang Hui was not a full-time maintenance personnel, and he participated in the maintenance work only to help. It was really embarrassing that they couldn't even do their own job well. Asking for more would be asking for too much.

After arranging other tasks, Yang Hui followed Graham back to the room, took out his PAD and called Cruz back.

"Are you free?" The screen lit up and the same playful smiley face appeared.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I have a lot of things to do here." Yang Hui scolded with a smile. These people would make fun of him whenever they got the chance.

"Okay, okay, these are obviously trivial matters that you have created for yourself." Kreuzer shrugged. Yang Hui could completely ignore these things, and he didn't have to stay in Drei Kreuz all the time. Whether he was in charge of the overall situation or as a top combat force to support all parties, it would be much easier than it is now. "Okay, okay, let's talk business. When are you coming to Phnom Penh?"

"Are you in trouble?" Yang Hui raised his eyebrows. Is the hook claw man so difficult to deal with? He can actually make Cruze lose face!
"It's okay. The other party knows that we have been following them, so they are not in a hurry. Both sides maintain a tacit understanding. If nothing unexpected happens... they are also waiting for you to come to Phnom Penh." Cruze said with a serious expression.

"Waiting for us?" Yang Hui frowned. So far, Fan and Wendy were the only ones who were anxious about Drei Kreuz and the Claw Man. Were they waiting for them to arrive in Phnom Penh? Or... "Yes, they didn't mean to avoid us at all. They didn't care even if we got close to eavesdrop. My men reported to me that the Claw Man and his gang were waiting for you to arrive in Phnom Penh, so they didn't leave and mentioned the existence of the door."

"Door?"

"Yes, the doors are connected in series. When you go to Phnom Penh, you will know which door will be opened. Of course, these are all my speculations and are for reference only." Cruze shrugged. Although the other party did not shy away from letting his men gather intelligence and was even very happy to hand it over with both hands, the intelligence Cruze could get was only fragmented fragments, and these fragments were delivered to him by the enemy on his own initiative.

As an excellent intelligence officer, Cruze naturally possesses the excellent quality unique to intelligence officers - suspicion.

Cruze also had to wonder whether this information was false information deliberately released by the other party, or even whether it was deliberately released by the other party to lure [Drestriga] to reach Phnom Penh faster in order to achieve some ulterior motives.

Therefore, Cruze also emphasized that what he said were just speculations based on the existing intelligence, which did not represent the final results and could only be used as a reference.

"Why don't you just arrest them?" Yang Hui questioned Cruze. No matter what the Hook Claw Man's conspiracy was, as long as they were arrested, wouldn't all the problems be solved? Yang Hui really didn't think they had the ability to cause trouble under the captivity of the Promise Legion.

"It's because of their fearless attitude that I don't dare to act rashly." Cruze sighed. He was defeated this time. He felt that he was being played around by them. He was very frustrated and angry. "So I came to ask you, do you want to catch them? If you want to catch them, I will do it myself. What do they have in their hands... mecha armor, right? I'm looking forward to whether they can be a match for Dominieren (the master)."

"Arrest him immediately." Yang Hui gave the order without hesitation.

"Understood... Looks like there's no need to arrest him." A gleam of anticipation flashed in Cruze's eyes. After coming to this world, he had only one chance to do it himself, and that was when he used Shinjo Ken as bait. As a result, the other party only sent a large number of criminal robots at the soldier level. There were two super AI criminals, but they were obviously unfinished products. They were easily turned into puppets by [Dominieren (Domination)]. Even Viktim, the mastermind behind the scenes, was caught. It was not fun at all.

As a result, when he was halfway through his words and was about to leave, he saw the group of men with hook claws walking towards him with smiles on their faces, which piqued his interest.

"...The other party came to our door?" Yang Hui had a guess when he saw through the screen that Cruze's eyes were fixed on the front.

"Yes, the attitude is very friendly. It seems that you are here to make friends." Cruze teased and waved to the other party in a friendly manner.

"Then I'll leave it to you. Catch them all. Keep the man with the hook claws. Oh, yes, keep the man named Michael. You can leave the others as you like." Yang Hui ordered. The man with the hook claws was left for Fan, as it was a promise to him. Michael was Wendy's brother, and they would know what the final result would be after Wendy had come into contact with him.

"I understand."

……

Earth, Phnom Penh. Cruze hung up the phone and looked at the group of people with hook claws in front of him with interest. In addition to the hook claws man and Michael mentioned by Yang Hui, there was also a seemingly quiet woman, two burly men, and a pair of twin children.

"Amazing, Mr. Hook Claw Man, you actually found my location and came to me safely." Cruze applauded the Hook Claw Man, he did not reveal his location.

"Thank you for the compliment, sir. You have never concealed your location, and... didn't you send away the other guards just to welcome our comrades?" The man with the hooked claws bowed very gentlemanly, his voice full of bewitching.

"Haha, interesting." Cruze's mouth curled up dangerously. He did not deliberately hide his position, and even sent away the guards who were there in the open and in the dark. He originally planned to use himself as bait to lure the Claw Man and his gang to assassinate him.

The result was mixed. The Hook Claw Man and his gang did come, but they were not here to assassinate him. It seemed... they really came to make friends.

"You are a very good person. I can feel the enthusiasm hidden beneath the mask. Our paths must intersect somewhere, so... I'm here to make friends with you, very good friends." The man with the hooked claws didn't consider himself an outsider at all. He came to Cruze very rudely, pulled over a chair and sat down.

"Haha, to be honest, you are the first person to praise me as a good person." Cruze smiled jokingly. Even among his companions in the Promise Legion, few people classified him as a good person, and no one directly praised him as a good person.

"Doesn't this prove that we can be good friends? Sir...ah! Sorry, sorry, I am so rude. I haven't asked for your name yet."

"Isn't it proper etiquette to introduce yourself before asking someone's name? I don't like calling my friend 'Hook Claw Man' all the time."
