Gundam: From Piece to Player

"Dad, are you comfortable letting Banagher pilot a mobile suit to take on an enemy squadron?"

“Gibao needs to learn to fight independently. This level of enemy can put pressure on him and serve as a good test... In addition, there are reliable people watching over him, so I don’t need to worry,” Kalmar said.

Is someone watching?

Wasn't Banagher the only one who boarded the plane?

Liao couldn't figure out what his all-powerful father was up to, so he could only focus his attention on Alice.

Alice has infiltrated the research institute building, preparing to make contact with a researcher who has had a change of heart.

Chapter 291 Terminator Alice

"Liao, don't you think this contact person is incredibly eloquent? Did he manage to turn several bodyguards against him just by talking?"

"What?"

Alice arrived near the docking point.

Ryo saw a scene through Alice's shared vision, using the display screen on the backpack-shaped Zida.

The informant was a Japanese woman dressed in a suit and trousers uniform with an identification tag. Her name was Osaki Ruiko. She was in charge of compiling the memories of Murasame-type enhanced humans and was a sympathizer of the enhanced humans.

She waited, looking around at several large factory buildings that were over fifteen meters high; this was indeed the docking point that Mark Bay had mentioned earlier.

Meanwhile, Alice's thermal imaging visual sharing also allowed Liao to see several people kneeling or lying down in the distant lighthouse, holding "metal" in their hands.

Liao also came to understand the current situation.

It's hard to blame General Mark Bay for the problems with his informants, and it's also unrealistic to expect them to have received adequate counter-surveillance training.

This researcher was bait, and she may not have known it, or she may have known but was forced to continue because of her life.

"Sister Alice, could you quietly take down a few points?"

"I can, but they're too far apart. I can't process them all in a minute, and if I do, it will immediately trigger the research institute's alarm."

"Okay, let's go with Plan B."

"receive."

Alice picked up the invisible multi-legged support platform and patted it. Several tiny flying insects, each about 5mm in size, flew out of the platform and fluttered towards Ruiko Osaki's uniform, hiding inside the gap in the collar.

When Osaki Ruiko picked up her phone again, she saw...

The goods were lost at sea due to the storm; the transaction has been rescheduled for tomorrow.

"Damn it, are they playing me for a fool?" Ruiko gripped the communicator tightly, clearly furious at the sight.

Even though you can't hear what they're saying, you can tell what they're saying just by looking at their lip movements.

Liao sighed, "What a muddle-headed liaison!"

Tears turned and headed towards the office building. Just as she entered the building, a pair of hands reached out from the darkness of the corridor and choked her from behind.

"Manager Daqi, it's not good to skip work during the workday."

"Manager Hamil, what are you trying to do?"

When Ruiko realized that the person who came was Zinko Hamil, the head of security at the research institute, she struggled, but he only used a little force to make her lose the ability to resist.

Several guards who had been lying in ambush using sniper weapons also came out.

"Take her to the interrogation room and torture her with truth serum; we're sure to get some information out of her," Zinko ordered.

"clear."

Jinko then took the elevator to the main building, thinking that he should report to the director as soon as possible... External forces were invading, so it would be better to get the director to retreat as soon as possible.

Just as he turned a corner, he ran into a strange girl who was aiming a gun at him.

Who are you? How did you get in?

The security supervisor instinctively reached for his gun.

Two seconds later, a body with red and white fluid oozing from its forehead was thrown into the empty fire escape stairwell, where it rolled due to gravity.

Upon re-entering the room, Alice, disguised by her battle suit, transformed into the appearance of "Zinko Hamil".

He picked up the walkie-talkie he had seized from the other party and spoke in a male voice similar to Jinko's: "Squad leaders, listen up! Due to unforeseen circumstances, today's escort and defense deployment will be changed as follows..."

Outside the factory, the second batch of combat companies, dressed in exoskeleton suits, began their infiltration operations, and the base's electronic locks were opened.

Yuri glanced at the cameras in front of him and saw that they had been completely hacked.

"That's really simple."

As Yuri, who was at the back and watching the troops pour in, couldn't help but think... was Ryo trying to make them feel involved?

It feels like the AI ​​named Alice is enough to accomplish the tasks of "physically disconnecting the internet, copying data," and "capturing scientists."

"General Yuri, you must be careful. Although Alice's 'command' will make the enemy's information transparent, the enemy may also directly summon enhanced humans to launch defense and offense," Liao continued to remind them under the communication command.

"Understood, I'll leave it to you then."

On the other side, Karma, piloting Cupid, stood on the back of Red October, watching Banagher's performance.

The Zaku 3 was steadily gaining altitude. Banagher, piloting his machine, hadn't fired a single shot, watching as two pumpkin pie-shaped machines, flying at high speed in the air, crossed paths and launched an attack on him. Then, the beams were split apart by the two shields.

The enemy's beam rifle, which fired a square beam, looked rather unusual.

Banagher dodged what he could, and for what he couldn't, he used his I-position to take the hit head-on.

"Sister Yasna, why can this round cake fly? Does it have a Minovsky particle flight device, or does it fly because of a strong brick?"

"...This is a lifting body structure, right? You can take a look. The main offensive method of this machine is the beam rifle in MA mode. Although it looks like it can transform, its mobility is greatly reduced when it transforms into MS mode. The battle can be ended the moment it transforms into humanoid form."

"You know so much, Sister Yasna."

To outsiders, it seemed as if Banagher was talking to himself.

However, with the activation of the Mecha-Symbo device, Yasna, who is hidden inside him, can also communicate with him in real time.

In normal circumstances, Banagher could only communicate with the other person in his dreams.

Of course, when fighting alongside her, one can achieve more than just that—

"Agis, this machine should be a long-range specialized machine. It has strong long-range defense capabilities, but it probably isn't good at close combat."

"learn!"

Argis nodded, piloting the Ashima closer. Under Bran's cover, it quickly transformed into a mobile suit and threw a punch at the Zaku 3.

The first batch of Ashima were designed to focus on solving the transformation mechanism, and their only weapon was a beam rifle (enough to deal with most guerrillas). In addition, due to cost considerations, they were not equipped with a beam saber.

Considering the potential predicament in close combat, the designers also incorporated some clever ideas. Ashima's hands are not just for decoration; they are designed to be larger and more robust than those of ordinary mechs, and a larger fist can cause greater destructive power.

Looking at the huge fist swinging towards them,

Somewhat bewildered, Banagher switched his main weapon to a beam saber and, in the instant he dodged the punch, thrust the beam saber into the enemy's waist.

Ashima exploded in response, and Agis was shattered by the self-destruction of his machine before he could even say his last words.

"Ajis, damn it!"

Bran was filled with remorse upon seeing this.

Seeing this, Zaku 3 continued its bombardment of him.

With the control of 10 attitude nozzles, the pumpkin pie in MA mode twisted like a small flying saucer, creating a noodle-like flight trajectory.

Banagher took aim and realized that it was indeed difficult to hit.

Chapter 292 Terminator Alice Continued

However, without warning, the heat from the Super Mega Particle Cannon grazed the leading edge wing, instantly causing the machine to lose its balance and begin to tumble rapidly... In contrast, the Space Alliance used a Helium-3 levitation backpack system on the Flying Tiger and Strong Reconnaissance Zaku III... This technological gap, in turn, began to affect combat performance.

The lifting body structure of Ashima in its flying saucer form is very fragile. Once its shape is destroyed, its own thrust will not be able to support its high-speed movement in mid-air.

To prevent the machine from falling from a great height, Bran had to transform in mid-air to stabilize his body.

Within the 0.5 seconds that the transformation stalled, a beam of light swept towards the lower part of the machine, engulfing the thermonuclear jet engine and causing a violent combustion.

At this point, you can win even if you leave it alone.

The area beneath the cockpit had melted, and Bran had no chance of escaping. Seeing this, Banagher raised his super beam rifle and fired another shot at the unbalanced Ashima.

Let this guy who caused trouble for the Big Three in another timeline have a clean and quick death.

After taking down the two "Pumpkin Pancake" tanks, the Zaku III began to descend and attack the seven Riot Control GM tanks on the ground.

"I am Galio, will you surrender or not?"

"We will fight to the last moment." Karma's words were heard at the Okinawa base, and the reply was still "Wood," who would fight to the very end.

Then we can't blame him... Let's just tear this place down.

It was only a matter of time before the Okinawa base was swept away, and the commotion there finally alerted Dr. Murasame.

The walkie-talkie was ringing, and "Jinke" answered the signal.

A deep male voice came from the other end of the signal.

"Zinko, the fighting at the base is fierce. Is the force the mole is contacting related to the mastermind behind this attack?"

Alice, through analysis of the recordings stored in the walkie-talkie, has determined that her target is Dr. Murasame.

"I've brought the mole back, and I'm going to interrogate him using truth serum."

"There's no reason they would know. Could there be another mole among them?"

Alice did not answer, and the next second, gunshots rang out in the research institute.

It seems that plans can't keep up with changes; not everyone followed "Jinke's" orders, resulting in some slipping through the net.

"What's going on?" Dr. Murasame began to have doubts.

Alice checked the current situation and found that the support platform had set up an electronic interference zone near the hard drive storage area where the target data was stored.

The plan to remotely delete or format the device, or to use remote-controlled explosives, is no longer feasible... However, physical safeguards are still insufficient, as the enemy may use MS or MA devices to directly cause damage.

Alice uses remote signal location to discover that the enemy is at three helicopter landing pads.

She threw the communicator to the ground, then picked up a newly seized pistol and fired a few shots into the air... making the other side mistakenly believe that the security chief was in the middle of a battle.
