“This is the mission. The kneeling part is to destroy their Psycho-Frames. As for the Solar Furnaces, don’t destroy them– that’s the 00 Team’s business, nothing to do with us,” Feng Chen said.
Saji asked, “Where are their Psycho-Frames installed?”
Feng Chen replied, “Their Psycho-Frames are different from ours. Their Psycho-Frames are near the Solar Furnaces, so this mission is very difficult. You cannot damage the Solar Furnaces, understand?”
“Understood.” Just as the three were about to rush forward, Feng Chen stopped them. “Don’t be so hasty. We must at least wait until they can’t hold on any longer before we start acting.”
“Oh.”
The Carriers led by Liang Qian Nan began to attack Setsuna and the others, but it seemed none of their attacks hit. Horo still said, “Nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide…”.
The Seravee Gundam also transformed into its humanoid form and began dodging these beams. “Is our Annihilation also written into the plan?”
The Kshatriya raised its GN Cannon, preparing to fire, but as it was aiming, it suddenly “lost power.” “Veda’s support…”
Horo exclaimed, “System malfunction, system malfunction…”
Lockon stated, “No way.”
Hallelujah murmured, “As expected, we are…”
Only Setsuna was particularly distressed, repeatedly crying out, “What’s wrong with you, Exia? Gundam!”
Hallelujah lamented, “We are about to be executed.”
Lockon protested, “What are you talking about? I haven’t even done anything yet.”
Tieria despaired, “Am I… abandoned by Veda…?”
On the enemy side:
“The Gundams’ movements are strange.”
“Is this some kind of trap, or is it…”
Setsuna cried out, “It’s the same as that time. Even though I was piloting the Exia, I couldn’t become the Gundam. I…”
Meanwhile, with Alejandro:
Crazy Li asked, “Do we really have to do this, Mr. Alejandro?”
Alejandro replied, “For world unification, the victory of the United Nations Army is a necessary condition. As long as the GN Drives remain, Celestial Being can be rebuilt at any time. I am a man of deep desires. I want both Earth and Celestial Being…” Ironically, despite being a monitor, he didn’t even know how many Gundams were in Feng Chen’s squad.
On the Ní Yà Jiā Mǎ:
Christina reported, “Gundam systems are down. Veda is interfering.”
Miss Huang asked, “Feng Chen, can you activate the NT-D System?”
Feng Chen answered, “Of course. But when I was installing the systems for them, I discovered a hidden system.”
Miss Huang inquired, “What do you mean?”
Feng Chen explained, “Old Master might have anticipated this long ago, which is why he installed a hidden system on the Gundams. However, it can only be activated under certain conditions. Once those conditions are breached.”
Ian asked, “Won’t these two systems repel each other?”
Feng Chen replied, “I’m not sure about that, but the NT-D will activate automatically in ten seconds. After that, I won’t be concerned with them. Besides, Loy has a mission for us.”
Miss Huang queried, “What mission? Wait, who is Loy?”
Feng Chen explained, “Loy is… um… he’s sort of the commander on the Ní Yà Jiā Mǎ. As for the mission, it’s to retrieve the Psycho-Frames.”
Miss Huang exclaimed, “Psycho-Frames? Don’t we have those?”
Feng Chen responded, “It seems someone forgot about the Phoenix being captured.”
Miss Huang was speechless.
Christina asked, “Miss Huang, what are you talking about?”
Feng Chen instructed, “You, Kankin, take Saji and Louise to the left. Brother Niu Zi, Kshatriya, and I will go to the right. Mission start!”
With Setsuna and the others:
Setsuna lamented, “Is this the end for me… my… life… No! I’m still alive, I’m still alive! Move, Exia! Move, damn it! Gundam!” Truthfully, Feng Chen had already activated the NT-D system, but Setsuna hadn’t noticed.
Feng Chen, rushing over, heard Setsuna’s words and a scene flashed in his mind: “Move, Theo, why aren’t you moving!” Snapping back to reality, he slowly said, “Setsuna, the Gundam is moving, why aren’t you?”
“Feng Chen…” Just as Setsuna finished speaking, the Exia’s cockpit not only lit up but also transformed into a panoramic view. Following this, the external Psycho-Frame of the Exia began to glow. Now, about twenty percent of the Exia’s entire body was Psycho-Frame. The GN Shield also deployed, revealing the red Psycho-Frame within. As for the GN Sword, Feng Chen hadn’t installed it—perhaps he was too lazy, or perhaps he didn’t know how.
Hallelujah exclaimed, “System…”
“It works! Wait, why did the seat change like this? And where’s the control stick?” Lockon discovered that the control sticks were all gone, and he was lying down.
Hallelujah added, “Yeah, but it seems the Gundam can now attack following our thoughts.”
Feng Chen proudly declared, “That’s right. This is the power of the Psycho-Frame. How is it? This system is from our Unicorn Gundam. You guys should just be happy about it.”
Lockon questioned, “Huh? Your system? Could it be that you guys…”
Feng Chen confirmed, “That’s right. I foresaw that something like this might happen, so I installed a backup system for you. Not only that, but I also installed more Psycho-Frames. While they might not be as advanced as our Unicorn’s, they should be enough. However, the downside is that you might experience discomfort, as the movements rely on your thoughts.”
...
Ian reported, “Feng Chen, Tieria’s system switch-over failed.”
Feng Chen replied, “Huh? It’s fine. NT-D can be switched over by force.”
Ian asked, “What do you mean?”
Feng Chen destroyed a GouF and explained, “What I mean is that the NT-D system forcibly inserts itself, pushing out the original system, but it will cause some damage to the original system.”
Ian pondered, “So, is this the only way?”
Feng Chen dodged the beams fired by the GouFs and said, “No, no, no. When I was installing their systems, I knew they had another system called Trans-AM. I’m not sure about the specific trigger conditions yet. Alright, let’s start the countdown: Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!” As soon as he finished counting, the Kshatriya began to move. “What do you think? Amazing, right? I think so too.”
...
Don’t you think there’s more? Well, I’ll write another chapter. Pancake wishes everyone a Happy New Year, congratulations and prosperity, and may you have abundance every year.
