Chapter 221 Lux is not impossible to consider
The inauguration ceremony was similar to Erin's.

The only difference is that this time, two people were appointed as new directors of the design bureau.

As an integrated design bureau, they currently have three directors.

It can be said that the balance within the design bureau was maintained.

According to the Defense Committee, the three of them were led by Erin.

However, it is not a monopoly, but a voting system.

Of course, this situation is simply the home court for the Heilan Design Bureau, with two of the three directors standing together.

Even the district chief is the same.

This is also the common idea and goal that the three of them share after they became a team.

Now it can be considered as a preliminary realization.

After taking control of the design bureau, their position in ZAFT will become more and more stable.

"Congratulations~ Director He, this time you are officially Director He~"

Lux chuckled.

"Thank you."

"I didn't do anything. Director He is just too polite."

Lux said this with a playful look around, and put her cherry lips close to He Kui's ear. The warm breeze blew into He Kui's cochlea.

"Would it be convenient for us to talk alone? There are too many people here."

Indeed, they were still in the main venue, not to mention that the two of them were already conspicuous, so it was not a good place to talk.

"Come on, I'll take you to a quiet place."

He Kui didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that there was a different kind of temptation in the girl’s voice.

It must be an illusion.

After all, it seems that the favorability still hasn't improved.

He Kui followed Lux ​​from the main venue to an ordinary room in the backstage.

"He Kui, what are your future plans?"

After bringing the person to the room, Lux said softly.

"You should have a plan, right? About the future of the Adjuster."

".Lux flattered me."

"Aren't we friends~?"

Lux blinked and asked.

"Yeah, but I don't really have a plan. Just surviving is already a lot of work, isn't it?"

Hearing He Kui's words, Lux was stunned for a moment, and then quickly raised a beautiful smile.

"You're right, it's about survival."

“It’s so hard just to survive.”

"Does Director He like Lux?"

"what?"

He Kui, startled by the sudden question, twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

Urgent, how should I answer this?

If it was an ordinary girl, He Kui could guess roughly what she was like, but this was Lux.

He could not guess what she was thinking even if he used up all his hair.

"Do you like Lux? Didn't He Kui say before that he was a fan of Lux?"

Lux's round eyes seemed a little aggrieved, which made people feel distressed.

“I’m a fan.”

Subconsciously, He Kui spoke words of comfort.

"So you like Lux, right?"

"Ah."

No matter what, the favorability level needs to be improved anyway.

"If He Kui can bring peace to the Adjusters, Lux might consider it~"

Lux chuckled.

Although it was strange for a reserved girl to say this, it was this strange charm that made He Kui's heart beat wildly.

He... Was he seduced by Lux?
He Kui subconsciously looked at the favorability of the virtual frame, and it was already eighty.

So Lux is serious?
"What do you think, He Kui?"

As Lux spoke, she moved closer to He Kui, and their bodies were almost touching.

The pure and charming scent of the girl continuously rushed into He Kui's mind from his nose.

She didn't ask about Shihe and Su Lei's situation. There was no doubt that Lux was confident that she could win the battle for He Kui.

"Yeah, I'll try my best."

"You are so cautious, but I am waiting for good news from Director He."

"Lacus."

So now that his position is becoming more stable, he should be able to find Lux ​​to take a step forward.
But first we have to make the new Gundam.

He does have the data for the assault, but it is definitely not enough. Although it is a test machine before mass production, its basic capabilities are still better than Gates.

To achieve this in a stand-alone state, the body structure is very important first.

Just like the magic crab, different structures can be combined in a specific way to get the optimal solution for defense.

However, he currently has no system support, and AI capabilities are not sufficient to handle the simulation of such large data.

Two months
In his new office, He Kui looked out the window at the clear blue sky and the beautiful blue clouds covering the area near the central elevator and sighed.

The clouds that seemed unattainable before now seemed to be getting closer and closer.

Clouds are, and so are people.

However, there are limits to the clouds in the colony.

And he was approaching that limit.

He may go into politics next.

If he uses the reputation he has cultivated here and becomes Speaker, many of his ideas can be realized.

Whether it is Cruze or Durandal.

Many problems can be easily solved under the peak power.

Retracting his gaze, He Kui arrived at the underground secret factory without any obstruction. "Erin."

"Why come here if you don't want to enjoy your authority?"

Erin looked at the person who came and smiled, saying that only when two people are familiar with each other can they make such a joke.

"We have to start working eventually."

He Kui shrugged.

"How is the driver's adaptability?"

"Sara's son seems to have adapted well to the Justice Gundam."

Erin placed the tablet recording the virtual machine test data in front of He Kui.

"As expected, except for Athrun, no one else can use the full power of the machine."

Although several of them are able to operate the machine, only Aslan can use 80% of the machine.

As for others, even Isaac can still only use about 65% of his ability.

But Aslan will explode, and after that he will be able to reach 100%.

He is indeed the strongest warrior among the Adjusters.

"Let's find another driver."

"About this, I see the National Defense Committee seems to have called in some pilots from the special forces."

"understood."

We still need to let the National Defense Committee carefully consider Marlene and Ash Gray.

Although the current machine doesn't have room for many people, but what if?

He didn't want to put someone who had murderous intentions towards him on the latest test machine.

It is too ironic that the weapon he developed killed him.

"The mobile shield is ready for installation. I plan to test it on Gates first before using it on the test machine."

He Kui said softly.

Maybe he could make this defensive shield into a backpack and use it on a new machine, just like the Akatsuki Gundam.

"No problem, this is also your skill."

As Erin finished her words, Diego's voice came from the free communication system in the test site.

"Director He, when are you coming to spar with me?"

"Then let's wait for an opportunity."

Having just exchanged a few moves with them near the coast of Orb, He Kui was not interested in this for the time being.

"Ok."

After all, he is now the director, and Diego did not make a fuss about having a game.

"Let's go eat together sometime."

"no problem."

He Kui agreed and quickly left the design bureau.

As a director, He Kui is now not only responsible to the National Defense Council, but is also the big brother in his own territory.

No need to worry about absenteeism at all.

In other words, as long as you can produce results, the National Defense Committee will see it.

Sarah and the other two don't care at all what He Kui does.

He said that it was possible to go and collect materials for the new machine.

In this way, He Kui soon arrived at his own asteroid company.

It was still the same port, but Cagalli didn't run over here today.

Probably on the plantation.

He Kui did not go to find Cagalli first, but came to a very secret warehouse.

Some of the components here are not up to standard, or do not meet the experimental parameters, and according to the original regulations they have to be disposed of.

He hacked it down.

The process is very simple.

The employees he uses to run this company include Hoss, who were all members of the beam team at the beginning and have become his core.

First, he handed the processing work to the people in the beam group, and then after a series of turnover and laundering, he got the parts here.

It might not work in other places, but in the Design Bureau, the place he has run from the beginning to now, he can do it.

However, it will take some time to assemble these parts into a complete machine.

These parts were arranged in different categories. There were two Gates heads, and the radar components inside did not meet the standards, but they could be used after a slight replacement.

The body frame is also Gates's frame.
It's okay for Gates to make a profit, but he really doesn't dare to make a profit for justice and freedom.

Moreover, the skeleton structure of nuclear power plants is slightly different from that of battery power plants.

"I can barely put together a Gates."

But the difference is that this is a Gates that can use phantom particles. The phantom particles covering the entire fuselage are the ones he has been slowly pulling out since he discovered the phantom particles.

There are a few lightsabers left here, and a few quantum virus experiments left over there.

The amount stored now is just enough to cover one machine.

I originally planned to keep it for making my own Gundam in the future.

But there is no way now.

Now that he is the director, it is even easier for him to find some blackmail information.

I don't know if the game defense shield can be hacked.

You still have to eat your meals step by step.

Breaking away from his beautiful fantasy, He Kui quietly began his work.

For him who is S-class, everything is a piece of cake.

With the help of the small MS, the Gates began to be reassembled from its parts at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It only took half a day to complete the main assembly.

The next step is to cover the phantom particles, which requires reforging every nano-crystal of the phantom particles.

"It will take another three days, just enough to test the effect of the force field."

Although perfect modulation is not yet possible, it is still possible to use existing theories to slightly improve the battery energy diffusion efficiency, increase the energy storage capacity and the charging and discharging efficiency.

"Well, we're done. Let's go back to find our parents and Cagalli."
