Chapter 7 Erica Simmons
A few minutes later, the golden aircraft was hoisted from the sea by multiple hanging ropes. It was still emitting white smoke when it was hoisted. Someone quickly recovered the broken parachute and cleaned up the traces. As for it, it had completely sunk.
Naturally, there is no time to search carefully for those things in the water.
The golden heretic who was hoisted up looked extremely miserable. The golden soles of his feet had been broken and the sole propellers were completely damaged.
The legs looked almost at the level of being scrapped. There was no intact piece of armor on the entire body. Coupled with the traces of meltdown when it was lowered, it felt like it was just one step away from being scrapped.
But the final result was still within Xiao Yun's expectation. It was about the same. The impact on Xiao Yun in the cockpit was actually smaller than expected, that is, he suffered some minor impacts.
Xiao Yun actually has a lot of experience in simulating the orbital launch project, at least more than 500 times. Orbital launch is one of the required subjects for Titan pilots. At this point, Xiao Yun can guarantee that no one in the world can
Know better than him.
He really didn't dare to jump off the track while driving the golden machine, but in another situation, he had already broken through the black barrier area and slowed down, and the sea was still below, so he didn't have too many worries.
In fact, in the Titan training subjects, this kind of orbital launch without a landing cabin generally only requires the driver to ensure his own survival, and the damage to the body is not considered at all.
Without considering the integrity of the airframe, using the airframe itself and other conditions to reduce the impact on the pilot is also a basic requirement in the training subjects. Xiao Yun fully met the requirements this time and did a very good job. After all, the only way to survive is to survive.
There is hope that damage to equipment will not be considered at all in the era of space development, and the pilot himself is the more precious existence.
Breaking the water surface tension and entering the sea is also a scoring situation. If there is a slight mistake, the result will be completely different. The real landing point of the golden machine is not the sea surface but the churning waves and foam.
Another reason is the material problem of the Gundam Astray itself. The buffering power of the foamed metal armor is also quite excellent. The bubble structure absorbs impact very well. The damage to the body itself is great, but the impact on Xiao Yun is not.
Not that big.
In addition, the heavy thermal insulation suit he wore further slowed down the impact. I don't know if Luo had already thought about the possibility of unexpected situations, so the impact resistance of the thermal insulation suit prepared for him was unexpected.
Pretty good.
After being hoisted onto the cargo ship, the damaged golden machine was loaded directly into the cargo hold, and the cargo ship quickly turned around and quickly began to sail away from its original position.
Xiao Yun kept looking at the situation outside through the fragmented screen. When the cargo compartment closed and went through the process of darkness and light, Xiao Yun discovered that a man wearing an orange-red coat and light jeans appeared in front of the hanging aircraft.
woman.
When he saw this woman, Xiao Yun also recognized that the other person was Erica Simmons who had just spoken to him. He slowly took off the heavy insulating suit that was not convenient for movement before allowing VT to open the cockpit door.
.
"..."
"VT, open the door."
"It's already open."
Xiao Yun: "..."
VT: "Perhaps the hatch cannot be opened normally due to structural deformation due to impact. You can try kicking the hatch open with force."
Xiao Yun stood up speechlessly, grabbed the handle of the door with both hands and kicked hard towards the hatch several times before successfully opening the hatch.
After the hatch was opened, an elevator came to the side of the open cockpit. Erica Simmons watched Xiao Yun climb down the ladder without saying a word.
It wasn't until Xiao Yun walked in front of her that Erica let out a long sigh, covered her forehead and said helplessly: "You are too messy. Is this the usual style of mercenaries like you?"
Xiao Yun shrugged his shoulders: "I just followed your request and came down as soon as possible. This should be a complete fulfillment of your request."
"That's right..." Erica smiled bitterly and looked up at the shabby golden machine again: "But this machine body is almost useless. After such an impact, let alone the outer armor, it is estimated that the internal
The skeleton is no longer in shape."
After hearing Erica's words, Xiao Yun turned his head and looked at the golden machine. Xiao Yun himself was stunned for a moment when he saw it.
The current appearance of this golden machine is too miserable. It looks like a super battle-damaged version. In addition to the original appearance, everything has become pitch black.
There are cracks and defects all over the body, and various parts of the armor also appear to be broken. They can be placed directly in a museum as a scene decoration.
Xiao Yun groaned: "I think you want this machine as a reference. It can still be used as a reference now, as long as you can get the complete information about the machine, right? But no matter what, now
This machine itself became like this because of your request, so you still need to bear the cost of repairing the machine."
Erica smiled bitterly: "It's really straightforward. We will take on the responsibility of repairing the machine. After all, according to the agreement, this machine itself is also your reward. We will hand it over to you after it has been completely repaired, and there will be no repudiation."
I mean, could you please move your hand away a little? This will make me feel very offended."
Xiao Yun lowered his head and glanced at his right hand resting on the pistol at his waist, and smiled shyly at Erica with sudden realization: "Sorry, sorry, it just makes me feel safer."
Erica shook her head: "Since we are the employer and we have given the conditions of employment, we asked you to take the risk of landing from the universe, so we never thought about breaking our agreement, and I just made such an unreasonable and dangerous request. It's true."
It is our problem, and we will be responsible for the due compensation and maintenance of this machine, and Orb will not ruin his reputation because of this kind of thing."
Xiao Yun smiled slightly: "That would be great."
Erica said: "In addition, we have a small request."
"Please say."
Erica said: "Regarding this mission and this machine, I hope to try not to have anything to do with Orb in the future."
Xiao Yun nodded: "I understand, this is part of the agreement."
"You may need to stay in Orb for a while." Erica nodded and said: "After all, this machine is damaged like this, and it will take a long time to completely repair it. If you don't settle down,
We can also provide you with a place.”
Xiao Yun originally planned to stay in Aub for a while, and said with a smile: "No problem, I just want to have a good vacation in Aub."
Erica smiled slightly: "Thank you very much for your assistance. I hope there will be a chance to cooperate next time. It will take a few hours to get back to Orb. We have prepared a resting place for you on the ship. Please come with me."
