Great, we're doomed now!

Just then, an exceptionally swift black shadow dodged all the firepower and, like a slippery eel, rushed straight towards the tent on the left side of the camp. The person inside was none other than Sawai Soichiro!

"Secretary-General!" Daigo Madoka, a member of the transportation team, happened to witness this dramatic scene and ran towards Sawai's tent without hesitation.

The tent flap was suddenly ripped open, and a dark figure rushed in, bringing with it a foul stench!

Daigo's heart leaped into his throat. He could even imagine the scene of Mr. Sawai being murdered in the next second. He quickened his pace and rushed towards the tent entrance without regard for anything else.

However, the expected scream did not come. Just as she was about to enter, a warning sounded in her mind—

boom!

Like a cannonball, the dark figure that had just rushed in was sent flying backward at an even faster speed than when it went in!

It was as if he had been hit head-on by an invisible high-speed truck, crashing heavily onto the open ground in the center of the camp, rolling several times before stopping, and lying limp and motionless on the ground.

Daigo suddenly stopped in his tracks, staring in astonishment at the tent entrance.

Inside the tent, Sawai Soichiro's bare back muscles were exposed, and he was holding a charred human-shaped object in his hand.

It seems that he was attacked by more than one vampire, and it's even possible that he was the first one attacked.

However, Sawai was completely unharmed. His expression was calm and composed, though his breathing was slightly rapid.

Hearing the commotion, Sawai Soichiro turned around and saw a young TPC staff member rushing towards him. After sensing the other person's emotions, he immediately smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you for coming to save me."

"Oh, this is my duty...?" Daigo blinked, feeling that something was not quite right in how things were going.

Does this... look like it needs rescue?

Sawai glanced at the chaotic battle outside, then looked at Daigo, who was standing frozen in the doorway, and said in a deep voice, "Don't get distracted, the battle isn't over yet!"

Daigo snapped to attention and quickly replied, "Yes!"

He picked up the laser gun and stood guard at the door, his mind filled with shock and confusion: What just happened?

There was no one else in the tent. Who was that enemy that flew away...?

"follow me!"

Sawai's voice startled Daigo, and before he could turn around, he saw a fearless figure walk past him.

With his graying hair, Sawai Soichiro strode into the night, laser gun in hand, and fired a shot at the charging vampire.

"Ahhhh!"

This attack was exceptionally effective; the vampire was instantly engulfed in flames and quickly turned to ashes.

At this moment, Daigo, who was still shooting to cover Sawai, discovered that the secretary-general's marksmanship was incredibly accurate. He was as calm and collected as a veteran on the battlefield, and almost everyone he hit died quickly. In a short period of time, he eliminated double-digit numbers of enemies.

This had a reversal effect on the outcome of local battles, and the vampires' offensive quickly faltered.

"Secretary-General? Wow, that's amazing..."

Daigo was now completely at ease with Sawai—this middle-aged man was even stronger than him!

He turned back to focus on the fight, hitting the enemy several times, but only managing to tear their skin open. He couldn't help but wonder: Sawai was clearly using the same model of gun,

—If he had the chance to observe carefully, he would have discovered that Sawai had fixed a red crystal to the front of the gun. Each time he fired, a faint light would be emitted from his hand, which would be absorbed by the crystal and then fired out along with the laser.

However, the battlefield was clearly not a good place for thinking. A vampire ambushed him, but he nimbly dodged it and they engaged in a prolonged battle. His opponent was far stronger than him, and Daigo himself was not from a military background, so he couldn't think of a way to break the deadlock for the time being.

But he was extremely resilient and did not back down in this situation, always persevering.

bass!

bass!

bass!

Finally, several thick lampposts shone down, illuminating the entire battlefield. The sharp wind pressure disrupted everything, and the vampires illuminated by the lights immediately let out painful screams, covering their faces with their hands.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Daigo suddenly exerted his strength, kicking the enemy away and hitting him with two consecutive shots!

Strangely, the vampire's defenses seemed to weaken after being exposed to the light, and the two shots pierced through it. With its heart destroyed, the vampire fell backward, and then a huge fire engulfed its body...

Daigo watched this scene with a furrowed brow—he was still a novice and not very comfortable killing "humanoid creatures".

Immediately afterwards, a radiant silver figure descended from the sky, right in front of Daigo. The giant's shadow, bathed in light, covered him, and he could see the sharp lines carved by the chisel when he looked up.

call--

The scorching air swept away the chill, its imposing presence like that of a god. But it brought not grace, but rather the brutal force of iron and fire!

Bang!

The enormous roar almost shattered Daigo's eardrums, and a vampire was instantly pulverized!

The powerful body, capable of withstanding lasers, was shattered into pieces of varying sizes by the pure kinetic energy impact, mixing with rocks and soil, leaving deep craters on the ground.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

A continuous roar echoed in everyone's ears, and brilliant crimson flames bloomed in the night sky. Vampires fled in all directions, their vulnerable appearance a far cry from their previous state.

"This is……"

Daigo opened his eyes wide, tilted his head back, and looked at the steel giant who crushed the entire scene with absolute violence.

"Humanoid mechs...so powerful!"

Just like any man would react, a flame of longing ignited in Daigo's eyes!

The enemy suffered a complete defeat, with most of them killed by the silver Gundam, and only a few lucky ones managing to escape into the forest.

Ye Shou had no intention of pursuing them. After confirming that the battlefield had been cleared, he detached himself from the cockpit and jumped directly off [Bayeri] onto the ground.

Looking up, Ye Shou saw a dumbfounded staff member standing in front of him, seemingly intimidated by the Gundam's posture. He patted the staff member on the shoulder and nodded to the young man who was fighting the vampire to the end.

Then, his gaze swept past the man and quickly across the entire scene. Seeing that Ze Jing was unharmed and was smiling and greeting him while carrying a long spear, Ye Shou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon receiving the news, he immediately activated [Bayeri], searching along the path indicated by the Holy Grail mark, and thankfully, nothing went wrong...

"Ye Shou, you've come at just the right time. If you had come any later, my old bones wouldn't have been able to hold on."

Sawai put down the gun, immediately showing signs of fatigue, as if he lacked energy, and took the opportunity to remove the red stone from the gun.

"I haven't had any real combat experience in a long time, I'm completely out of it... I was saved by this guy."

—He pointed to Daigo, who was wearing a Ministry of Transport uniform.

"I've already sent the signal, and the reinforcements will be here soon. You'll be able to get some rest in the city by tomorrow morning."

He turned around and smiled at the staff in front of him: "You've all worked so hard this time, especially saving Uncle Sawai... Hmm?"

"This person has a very good appearance," Ye Shou's eyes lit up.

I hadn't looked closely before, and this uniform seems quite common, but now that I've observed it more carefully...

"Don't be afraid, this big guy is our new weapon... By the way, I'm Kuze Yoru, also a member of TPC, and you are?"

"Kuze... Oh, it's you!"

Daigo was very familiar with the name. Not to mention the deep impression the Japanese had of the Kuze Group, just considering that the conglomerate that supported half of TPC, the people inside were basically aware of the weight of "Kuze".

Even knowing that this was an important person, Daigo was not particularly frightened. He just looked at Ye Shou with gratitude and said with a hearty smile, "Thank you for your timely rescue. I am Madoka Daigo. You saved my life this time."

"!"

Ye Shou blinked, paused for two seconds, and then laughed.

"Hmm... Daigo..."

"Um, is there something wrong with my name?"

"No, I just think you have a good appearance, like you'd make a good human being~"

"Human, human what?"

Chapter 210: Daigo, Become a Gundam Pilot! (4K)

"I see. The 'human host' is a setting in this game. Alien invasion and human extinction. In the first game, the human host's apparent identity was that of an alien invader, but in reality, he was a human pilot who had been puppetd. In the second game, he was freed by the protagonist, gained free will, and became a powerful NPC who piloted a mecha, leading a small number of survivors to escape from the slave city... It sounds very interesting."

But what did he mean by saying I was suitable to be a human host? Did he want to recruit me as a pilot?

Daigo felt a little excited: he did have a dream of flying.

Unlike Shinjo, Munakata, and Ikumi, who have impressive resumes and formal training, Daigo did not graduate from a prestigious school and studied architectural design, which has nothing to do with his current job.

From elementary school to high school, the teachers' comments for Daigo were:

This student is full of love for life, has a positive attitude towards learning, and gets along well with classmates. However, he lacks planning and purpose, and has an overly relaxed attitude of taking things as they come.

Some people travel to reach their destination, while others stop to appreciate the scenery and are not too fixated on their goal—Daigo belongs to the latter.

It can be said that he had no direction for the first twenty years of his life. He was just an ordinary person trying to enjoy life. The only time he was touched was after the release of ALO: Full Thrill. Daigo also tried it out and fell in love with "flying". It was as if his soul was liberated and he instantly felt like he had found his calling.

As for how he came into contact with TPC, how he applied to be a pilot but was rejected, and how he was assigned to the transport team for further training, that's another story.

In short, he was lucky. Although he was not selected because of his academic qualifications, he did not complain and is now working hard towards the internal recommendation quota.

However, witnessing the silver mech descend from the sky last night and instantly suppress the enemy with its divine power caused a subtle change in his thoughts:

Real men really do pilot mechs!

If Ye Shou were willing to give him a chance, he would be overjoyed.

"Open the door! Daigo, you've been caught!"

"what?"

Daigo got up and opened the door to the hotel room. A blinding beam of light shone in, making it hard for him to open his eyes. Then Shinjo, holding a flashlight, rushed in, turned Daigo around, and pressed something hard against his waist.

"Tell me quickly, what's your purpose in infiltrating the group?!"

"New...New City?" Daigo was bewildered. "What purpose do I have? What's going on?"

"You dishonest fellow, you need to be taught a lesson. Talk to me now!"

Shinjo flipped him over to face up again and said fiercely, "Are you—"

As the black wrapping paper was unwrapped, the aroma flowed into Daigo's nasal cavity along with the warmth, and the scent of spices made his nose itch uncontrollably.

"—Wouldn't you like this fragrant, piping hot, delicious, and not-too-spicy Brazilian barbecue flatbread?"

"……what?"

"What do you mean 'oh'? This is for you!"

Shinjo's expression changed, and with a grin, he tossed the pancake, still in its packaging, to Daigo before barging into his room without any ceremony.
