Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 105 Meeting with Brad (Please subscribe! Please recommend! Please support!)

After the SV52 slowly slid into the white fortress Gnaku and stopped, Brad and others waiting in the Gnaku were slightly shocked by the appearance of the SV52.

"How come this combat aircraft is somewhat similar to the fighter planes from the old century?"

Brad looked at the appearance of the SV52 and couldn't help but think of several famous fighters from the old century.

Nina, who was the first to board the White Fortress, also stood beside Brad, waiting for the arrival of SV52 and He Ming.

Nina glanced at Brad and others who were attracted by the SV52. With a tap of her feet, she floated to the side of the SV52's cockpit.

The cockpit hatch of the SV52 then opened.

After He Ming gestured to Nina with his thumb, he raised his hand and exerted a little force on the edge of the cockpit, and then he floated out of the cockpit and flew towards Brad and the others.

Nina took over He Ming's position, sat in the cockpit of SV52, and began to perform maintenance work after the battle.

Brad looked at the tacit understanding between the two and couldn't help but nodded secretly.

This tacit understanding can only be cultivated through years of cooperation.

"What's your name? It belongs to the Earth Federation Universe, Major. I'm sorry. Due to confidentiality, I can't reveal the unit's affiliation for the time being."

When He Ming fell in front of Brad and others, he also took the initiative to salute and show his identity.

"Brad Noah. Ensign. I made you laugh! I am the acting captain of this White Fortress. Captain Paul is currently recuperating due to serious injuries."

He Ming nodded, not too entangled in this aspect.

"Then, please grant my and my companions' boarding request. I need to make my way to Luna II."

He Ming paused.

"Of course. On the way to Luna II, I will assist the White Fortress in dealing with the enemies pursuing the ship."

When Brad and others heard this, they all looked at each other.

Obviously.

He Ming's proactive commitment made everyone feel relieved.

Even though the White Fortress had repeatedly repelled the incoming Zeon MSs in the process of leaving SIDE7, the fact was that there was not a single combatant on the White Fortress who had received formal training.

The arrival of He Ming just made up for the embarrassing situation of the White Fortress.

Without thinking much, Brad first saluted He Ming, then lowered his right hand and extended it to He Ming.

"Brad Noah, on behalf of all members of the White Fortress, welcome your arrival. What is your name, Major?"

He Ming reached out and shook it, completing the simple process of boarding approval.

After the two parties exchanged views on the current situation, He Ming looked at SV52 and proactively made a request.

"Lieutenant Brad. I hope that no one except Nina will get close to SV52. That is the secret of the Earth Federation."

"confidential?"

Brad was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the record of SV52 just now.

"Yes. Just like the Gundam, isn't it?"

In fact, when He Ming drove the SV52 into the cockpit of the White Fortress, he had already noticed the existence of the Gundam, Guncannon, and Guntank parked in the Gnaku.

However, He Ming did not show any curiosity.

Anyway, there is plenty of time to follow, so there is no need to pay too much attention to He Ming.

"Okay! I will notify you."

Brad couldn't understand how Nina, a cute-looking girl, could protect SV52 on her own. But that didn't mean that Brad would get to the bottom of it.

Regardless of the reason, Brad didn't want to have a bad relationship with He Ming.

This is the only combatant currently in the White Fortress.

"Major He. Please come with me! Captain, I want to see you."

"it is good!"

He Ming turned around and gestured to Nina to come back later, then followed Brad and left Gnaku.

With the bell secretly guarding her, Nina will definitely be the safest person on this ship.On the way to the old captain's hospital bed, He Ming saw many refugees along the way.

This is different from what He Ming saw in his memory.

"There are so many people."

Brad heard He Ming's muttering and smiled bitterly.

"There's nothing we can do. When Zeon attacked, we took all the civilians near the base into the White Fortress."

"Are you planning to send these people to Luna [-]?"

"Well, that's the plan."

Brad acknowledged He Ming's speculation.

He Ming revealed a possibility that Brad didn't want to see.

"Personally, I'm afraid Luna [-] will not accept these people."

"what?"

Although Brad will become a legend in the years to come, for now, he is just a young man who is forced to take responsibility for the safety of the entire ship and the people on it.

"How is that possible? Earth Federation soldiers cannot just watch people's lives in danger."

He Ming looked around and saw that there were no other people around.

"Luna [-] is the frontline of the Earth Federation's defense against Zeon invasion. Judging from the current situation, Vulcan, the commander of Luna [-], may not accept the people."

Brad was silent.

Brad knew clearly what Luna [-] represented.

"I understand. I'll give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll think of other ways!"

Speaking of this, the two of them fell silent in unison until they saw the captain, Paul Cassius, who was seriously injured and lying on the hospital bed.

"Captain. Who is this Major?"

Brad bent down and called softly.

Paul Cassius's eyelids moved a few times, and he opened his eyes with a painful expression.

"Ah, I'm sorry. I can only meet you in this form. Hello! I am the captain of this ship, Paul Cassius."

What salute response.

"What is my name? Don't worry. I should be the one to say sorry. Due to confidentiality reasons, I cannot disclose the unit I belong to. Please forgive me, Captain."

Paul Cassius nodded slightly, but He Ming could clearly see the cold sweat on his head.

Is it so difficult to do such a simple action?
"I understand. Now, Brad is in charge of commanding the ship."

"Understood. Captain, please take a good rest."

The first meeting between the two parties ended so simply.

After leaving the ward, Brad seemed worried and said nothing.

He Ming felt it, but he didn't ask.

As a person who had just boarded the ship, He Ming should not be too enthusiastic about things on the ship.

Moreover, both sides also have a very embarrassing situation.

That is, the military ranks of both sides are not equal.

Otherwise, the old captain Paul Cassius would not have specifically reminded him at the end of the meeting that Brad was commanding the ship, not He Ming.

"Major. I have a gracious favor."

Standing at the elevator door, Brad finally spoke.

But He Ming had already seen what he was thinking.

"Ensign Brad. Captain Paul has already said that you are commanding this ship. Not me."
