Chapter 108 Two Daughters
"The electronic module of shield generator No. 8 is blocked by cosmic dust. Is it available now?"
Driving his own Xigu, He Kui was debugging it outside Boyaz.
The shield on Xigu's left arm has now become a multi-functional component for maintenance.
"The signal is happening normally, no problem."
Shihe's voice came from the communication.
At this moment, a not-so-urgent call suddenly came from He Kui's seat.
"There is a ZAFT Loracia-class freighter sending out a distress call."
Shihe also received the signal inside the fortress.
"It should be the joint forces from yesterday."
Hearing Shihe's words, He Kui's mouth twitched.
A cargo ship is no match for the enemy. If they set out from the base now, the ship might have turned into cosmic dust by the time they arrive.
Now he is the only machine working outside, and the Iron Wall Team is guarding him.
But he wasn't sure if it was a trap.
He is not a savior and cannot save everyone.
Just when He Kui was thinking about how to keep his balance, a signal similar to a last will from an old man was transmitted into the machine along with the distress signal.
"We are the Orion, a Lorasia-class ship of ZAFT. I am Captain Jerome Hawke. If I die, please tell my daughters, Meiling and Lunamaria, that I love them."
The signal was intermittently received by Xi Gu's enhanced radar and transmitted to He Kui's communication.
"Hawk."
If I remember correctly, there seemed to be two girls with the same name in the drama.
If that's the case, based on Lux's situation, perhaps they also have skills.
He Kui gritted his teeth and thought that it would not be too difficult to just help with the defense, and they were just going ahead, support would come from the rear, and it would only take a few minutes at most.
Even if it was a trap, he was confident that he could get out of it.
"Captain Iron Wall?"
He Kui's communication was connected to the iron wall nearby.
"Director He, my mission is to protect your safety."
"Of course, if you insist on going, we can only follow you."
Although Tiebi said this, the momentum in his tone was much greater than He Kui's.
"Then let's go. Just help block them for a while."
After saying that, Xigu's red single eye locked onto the location of the distress signal in the distance.
The universe was still pitch black, and there was no sign that a battle was taking place over there.
Since the decision was made, there was no further delay. He Kui drove the Xigu at full speed under the cover of several surrounding aircraft and soon arrived at the area where the distress signal was sent.
The ship was a Lorasia-class ship as the signal said. At this moment, its engine was constantly exploding and it looked like it had little power left.
Although the three Jinns were guarding near the Lorasia-class, they were besieged by Mobius that were five times their number and had no time to take care of the mothership.
Just after they arrived, the belly hangar of the Lorasia class was hit by a missile and an explosion occurred.
"How's it going?"
After establishing communication with the Lorasia class, He Kui asked directly without any courtesy.
"The integrity of the hull has dropped by 45%, and the engine power is only 35%. We have been locked by the Nelson-class main guns. You should evacuate quickly."
The captain's despair reached He Kui's ears.
Just as he finished speaking, he saw the muzzle of the opponent's Nelson-class beam cannon light up dazzlingly at the same time.
The huge amount of energy silently gathered into green beams that cut through the dark space, like long spears, stabbing at the ships.
At this critical moment, He Kui's Xi Gu also started to move.
The powerful engine emitted a deep blue light, and the anti-beam shield in the right hand was raised at the same time, quickly blocking the command room of the Lorasia class.
The huge green beams were all absorbed by He Kui's shield, leaving only a hot red light on the smooth surface of the shield. The Alliance also knew the identity of the blue Sigu, and saw that the missiles on the surrounding Drake-class began to lock and fire at He Kui. On the other side, a full ten Mobius were also approaching He Kui.
The good news is that this probably isn't a trap.
The bad news is that he was still targeted because of this special paint job.
Using his shoulder shield to block the cannon fire from Mobius, He Kui fired the Vulcan cannon on his arm at the same time.
Countless bullets poured down on the Mobius body like violent raindrops, creating sparks and then exploding.
Tiebi and others also arrived at this time and helped He Kui block the attacks from both sides.
"Reinforcements are coming."
He Kui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the signal in the distance.
The two sides did not fight for long. Seeing that the fleet from Boyaz was about to arrive, the joint forces quickly turned around and withdrew.
However, the crisis has not been resolved yet. Just after the joint ship left, the hull of the Lorasia-class ship exploded violently again.
"The integrity of the ship cannot be maintained. The explosion in the engine will cause a chain reaction and lead to a simultaneous explosion."
He Kui murmured as he analyzed.
Without the resistance of the atmosphere, the chain reaction caused by the explosion would be extremely violent. Once the engine was completely out of control, the entire ship would definitely be destroyed in an instant.
"Send me the hull info."
"Okay."
The captain quickly agreed to the offer from this tough guy who showed up out of nowhere.
Based on the schematic diagram, He Kui quickly located the most severely damaged part of the entire engine system.
"Maintain the ship's attitude, shut down the main control system, and cut off the auxiliary power supply."
"Ok."
Perhaps it was He Kui's calm commanding voice that worked, and the captain regained his composure at this time.
Seeing that the entire battleship had come to a standstill, He Kui used his Xigu arm to forcibly open the casing of the engine system. The MS's mechanical arm penetrated into the exposed complex electronic circuits of the engine system, and the welding gun in his hand emitted bursts of dazzling flames.
Finally, they dragged the Lorasia-class merchant ship, which was unable to move but had not exploded, back to the port.
"When I looked at the machine, I wondered if it was you, Director He."
The captain was wearing a slim black suit and had short red hair. He held He Kui's hand tightly and enthusiastically.
"My name is Jeremy Hawke"
"Easy to do."
"No, this is a life-saving grace."
Hawke said excitedly with slightly moist eyes as he thought that he might never be able to go back to see his family again.
"Director He, could you please leave us your contact information so we can repay you?"
Hawke said this not only out of a sincere desire to repay his gratitude, but also out of selfishness. After all, when He Kui was awarded the medal that day, it was broadcast live on the entire PLANT.
At this time, He Kui was still quite well-known in PLANT.
As the saying goes, the number of choices you have in life is determined by your own network of connections.
And if they make friends with He Kui, they will have one more path, or even several more.
"Then contact me later."
Hearing Hawke say this, He Kui nodded in agreement.
He wanted to see if the two Hawks could provide him with some skills.
The two of them hit it off immediately.
"Ok!"
