Chapter 403 Xingyue is a girl(1/2)
Han Li, Jackson, and Yu Ren, the three ace mecha warriors who came to support in the name of Galaxy Team, left after arriving at Base Five.
There was no farewell ceremony, not even a farewell.
This is the normal way for people on alien planets to get along. People who are similar rarely meet, and people who are unwilling to be separated have to separate for various reasons.
It really corresponds to that poem, it’s hard to say goodbye when we meet.
Ji Xinghe did not show affection for his children. When he returned to Base 5, he immediately wanted to go straight to the mechanical repair area, but the medical staff begged him to go to his isolation ward.
Among them, Ji Rong Xinyue's attitude played a major role.
"There is no problem with physical function."
"The radiation levels have completely disappeared."
"This is so unscientific."
The exclamations of the medical staff were a little weak. They had marveled at Ji Xinghe too many times these days, so this miracle that should have kept them awake at night seemed a bit ordinary inexplicably.
After getting the physical report, Ji Xinghe was finally free.
This time he did not listen to Ji Rong Xinyue's words and go back to rest, but went to the machine repair area again.
Ji Rong Xinyue followed closely beside him, holding his hand and unwilling to let go.
It's been a long time since she held Ji Xinghe's hand like this, because Ji Xinghe had to wear radiation-proof clothing before, but now the radiation levels have all disappeared, and the radiation in Ji Xinghe's body can no longer affect her.
No one can make me let go of my grandfather's hand.
Ji Rong Xinyue, who was thinking this way, took the initiative to let go of her hand when Ji Xinghe led her to Xingyue.
Xingyue, who had been transported back, was standing quietly in the No. 66 machine repair area of Ji Xinghe.
It looks much better than her last scene on the battlefield. The dust on her body has been cleaned away, and some exposed parts have been temporarily processed.
But because of Ji Xinghe's instructions, the mechanics in the No. 66 mechanical repair area did not do any more processing, and did not even conduct a comprehensive inspection of Xingyue.
This explanation is not surprising. As a professional mechanic and the person in charge of the No. 66 mechanical repair area, Ji Xinghe has absolutely every reason to repair his own mecha with his own hands.
Xingyue still looks like a skeleton, but it no longer feels shabby. It is a bit primitive, but it is a high-tech crystallization of mechanical engineering. To describe it in one word, it is - cyberpunk.
"Grandpa, can Xingyue be repaired?"
Ji Rong Xinyue asked a question that she shouldn't ask, not because she didn't believe in Ji Xinghe's mechanical repair ability, but because she cared too much about Xingyue.
"Of course." Ji Xinghe's tone was very sure: "Xingyue can not only be repaired, but also stronger than before."
"That's great. Grandpa, if you're not tired, then hurry up and fix Xingyue."
"..."
Is this the same good granddaughter who almost cried just now just to let herself go back to rest?
If Xingyue hadn't saved Ji Xinghe's life and saved the lives of many, many people, Ji Xinghe might have delayed repairing Xingyue.
It's just maybe, and the possibility is extremely low.
In Ji Xinghe's opinion, the importance of Xingyue is far greater than that of him, especially in the defensive battle in the No. 5 base theater.
What Xingyue can do far exceeds what Ji Xinghe can do.
The so-called Ji Xinghe challenge, if only Ji Xinghe himself could do it, but after completing the Ji Xinghe challenge, he would never have the energy to participate in the war on the Vulture Mountain.
At most, it can be used as a mascot or a banner.
Then more people will die, and the war at Vulture Mountain will change as a result, making it almost impossible for the Federation to win.
Han Li, Jackson, and Yu Ren, three active ace mecha warriors who are expected to become galaxy-class mecha warriors, came to support the Vulture Mountain battlefield regardless of their own war zones and battlefields. It can be described as being ordered in the face of danger.
What they were afraid of was that Ji Xinghe couldn't be beaten. What they were afraid of was that the two Duke-class Imperial mechas were going to kill Ji Xinghe, or they were going to massacre the Federation mecha warriors on the Vulture Mountain just like how Ji Xinghe massacred the conventional Imperial mechas.
What's even more scary is that the jump gate was closed early and most of it was destroyed.
If Ji Xinghe cannot fight, there will definitely be new Duke-class mechas appearing on the Vulture Mountain battlefield, and even Ada Kang will come to the Vulture Mountain battlefield in person.
Even if they don't come, if only double-digit Marquis-level and Earl-level mechas are sent, the outcome of the battle at Vulture Mountain will be very different.
Therefore, Ji Xinghe must repair Xingyue as soon as possible due to emotions and reasons.
He didn't even have time to hold a post-war meeting and receive commendations for his meritorious service. Of course, this was also related to the fact that the war had not been completely calmed down, the relevant statistical reports had not been integrated, and a large number of combatants needed to rest.
"There is no need to repair Xingyue's body anymore."
Ji Xinghe touched Ji Rong Xinyue's head and said softly: "Grandpa will use tungsten steel alloy to build a full body for Xingyue, and then Xingyue will look brand new."
Ji Rong Xinyue looked surprised: "Tungsten steel alloy? Do we have more tungsten steel alloy?"
"Yes, the tungsten steel alloy grandpa has now can build four mechas."
Of the five Duke-class Imperial mechas that appeared on the battlefield at Vulture Mountain, four were destroyed by Ji Xinghe and one was destroyed by Yu Ren.
Yu Ren, a genius mecha warrior who was promoted to an ace mecha warrior faster than Ji Xinghe, became the seventh person in the Federation to defeat the duke class after Li Yuanba, Ji Xinghe, Han Li, Kai Dilin, Luo Weiqi, and Jackson.
Federation MechaWarriors of the Imperial Mecha.
It is worth mentioning that Cadilin and Rowitch were able to defeat the Duke-class Imperial mecha, and it was also because of Ji Xinghe that they appeared on the alien battlefield in front of the battle challenge.
Although the 'Ji Xinghe Challenge' they launched was rejected by the empire, the challenge they launched before was not rejected.
Therefore, four of the five Duke-class Imperial mechas captured belonged to Ji Xinghe.
"There are so many. Grandpa is so awesome."
After Ji Rong Xinyue praised her, her expression became a little hesitant.
"What's wrong, Xinxin?"
"Grandpa, can you fix Xingyue's body? I don't want to see her like this."
"Okay, then grandpa will also repair Xingyue's body."
He just said it, Ji Xinghe immediately began to check Xingyue's body.
At this time, the mechanics who had been quiet for a while began to help at Ji Xinghe's request.
When Ji Xinghe left Base 5, recuperated from illness, and joined the war, the professional mechanic in charge of Mechanical Repair Area No. 66 couldn't help but remind him.
"Master, many of the parts that were blown away when Xingyue was overclocked have not been recovered, and some are completely unusable. If we want to completely repair them, we need to rebuild those parts."
This made Ji Xinghe hesitate.
Xingyue is a special model. In this case, if you want to repair it as soon as possible, you will need to occupy part of the machine repair resources.
However, the machine repair resources at Base No. 5 are actually very scarce now. There are only less than two hundred mechas left, and some of them are carrier-based aircraft. It is impossible to stay at Base No. 5 all the time.
The repair of damaged mechas, the manufacturing of new mechas, the transformation of a large number of imperial mechas, and the comprehensive repair of Xingyue that will no longer participate in the war means that Base 5 will lose three or four mechas.
This account is easy to calculate and not cost-effective.
"Then let's stop practicing it."
Ji Rong Xinyue was a little reluctant to let go, but she was really sensible.
"Actually, it can be transported back to Azure Star for repair."
In the No. 66 machine repair area, Su He, who was like a robot, suddenly spoke.
He was still wearing a personal exoskeleton armor, even if Ji Xinghe was there.
"People from the Propaganda Department mentioned to me before that they wanted to send back some commemorative items related to Lao Ji for publicity, such as the mechas that Lao Ji drove. But Lao Ji was so good at fighting that his mechas
A is not damaged enough to need to be transported back to the Blue Star."
Su He pondered for a moment, then continued: "I asked, the Champion can be repaired and is worthy of being repaired, so if you just don't want to see Xingyue like this, you can send it back to Azure Star for repair."
Ji Rong Xinyue immediately looked at Ji Xinghe, and Ji Xinghe also looked at Ji Rong Xinyue.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and understood each other's meaning. Then Ji Rong Xinyue looked at her bracelet and nodded to Ji Xinghe in a vague way.
"Okay, then send Xingyue back for repair."
Xingyue's real body is his intelligent core, and his body is just an external object, just like the wooden mannequin he used to be Ji Xinghe's sparring partner.
There is no need for repair or upgrade of the intelligent core, so it must be removed and installed on Xingyue's new body.
"Where are the knives?" Su He asked again, "Those four knives shouldn't be suitable for the brand new Xingyue, right? Others can't be used either."
Xingyue's four knives are all short knives, only more than one meter long. They are more like cold weapons suitable for human beings. For the relatively large mecha, only Ji Xinghe can use them.
"It's not suitable. The new Xingyue will use part of the design of the general's armor, and the short sword is no longer suitable. Moreover, the performance of tungsten steel will weaken as the number of times it is remanufactured increases..."
Ji Xinghe said the reasons he could tell, but what he was thinking about was that the form of war on the alien planet was not optimistic, and there were some conflicts within the federation.
"Send Xingyue and the knife back together."
"good."
Su He responded and then suggested: "Old Ji, there is a lot of tungsten steel you seized this time. The Xingyue machine is not that big in its overclocked state. Why don't you take some of it and send it back to Azure Star so they can use it to build it?"
Xingyue’s overclocking form?”
Hearing these words, Ji Xinghe looked at Su He.
With another glance, everyone understood what the other person meant.
