Chapter 83: This Is Not the Life I Want
Shortly after Alice noticed someone approaching, Hambrabies noticed too. Just as Ade was still guessing who it could be, a familiar voice rang through the channel, "Who are these people? Why are they attacking you?"
Incidentally, the channel Villkiss and the girls were using was not the same channel as the common public channel of this world, Ange they didn't even know what the international public channel was. That's why she didn't chat with the pilot of Unicorn Gundam last time; maybe both sides had spoken but couldn't hear each other.
"I-" he almost couldn't hold back a curse, "What are you doing here? Get back! I don't need you here!"
"Hey, you are obviously being beaten! I came to help you, but what is your attitude!" Ange responded defiantly, "Who did you offend? Why are the three of them beating you?"
At this point, in the field of vision, Ade could already see Villkiss in the form of a small plane flying around the three Hambrabis at high speed. One Hambrabi came to attack Villkiss, but the small plane was very fast, and the Hambrabi couldn't hit it at all.
"My haters, it's none of your business!" Ade was shocked by Ange's moves of dodging the attacks, "Your Villkiss was even shot down by a Gatling, what can you help me? Just come to die here? Hurry back, your presence itself is the antonym of help!"
"I come to help me, that's too much to say that!" Ange weaved in and out of the fire network formed by the three Hambrabis, trying to close the distance, "Last time, I didn't know there was such a thing as Gatling cannon, this time, I won't commit such a low-level-"
"Beware of its hands! It can shoot hook claws with steel cable!" Almost at the same time as Ade said, the Hambrabi stretched out its arm and shot a hook claw at Villkiss. Ange flipped over to avoid being tied up in a shocking way. "The steel cable has electricity. You will be finished if it hit you."
"Why don't you say it earlier? I almost got hit." Villkiss hurried to pull away, then began to circle around the three Hambrabis irregularly again, "are you worried about me and afraid that I would be hit down?"
"No!" Ade stormed, "No bullshit!"
"Uh, tsundere?"
"Don't take my words and use it on me!" He tried to snipe the Hambrabi that was chasing Villkiss to relieve her pressure, but Yazan quickly strengthed his firepower to counter-pressure him, leaving him no time to take care of Ange, "This is my feud with them, besides, I'm about to win, no need for you to worry about me."
"You were obviously just being beat and couldn't fight back, weren't you? I'm not blind." Villkiss did irregular maneuvers in the air and its machine gun could pose little threat to the Hambrabi, "Anyway, I'm not leaving. Watch it yourself."
"How unreasonable you are! Where's your intelligence?!" Ade chided her, but Ange simply ignored him, " Friday, listen to my command."
"That's right! What are you doing early? Wasting everyone's time!" Ange's voice contained uncoverable joy, "Why don't you just accept the goodwill of others? You can't live alone, for example, if you have three enemies driving robots to attack you, you can't take them out by yourself, right?"
" I'll teach you a lesson when it's over, you've forgotten the fear of being dominated by the intelligence." Ade reported several locations in a row, "These are the main and backup cameras. Are you good at shooting? Try to shoot them off."
"Am I good at shooting?" Ange proudly bragged, "To tell you the truth, I'm good at both long-range combat and close combat, and every time I fought with my teammates, I had to restrain myself for not giving a blow to their self-confidence. And my physical combat skill, you have already experienced it first hand. Maybe you can experience it again later?"
Ange chatted while turning Villkiss into its human form and beginning to shoot at the Hambrabi. The opponent was a bit arrogant, giving up evasion and starting to shoot at her. Ange deftly returned fire while avoiding its attacks, and blasted the Hambrabi's main camera in one shot, followed by the several secondary cameras that exploded as well.
"Are ACEs everywhere these days?" Ange's shooting skill stunned him, "Friday, stand away!"
Villkiss, who was about to approach the Hambrabi, quickly pulled back and Hyzenthlays' VSBR was changed from its continuous fire mode to its high power shooting mode. The thick particle beam whistled and tore the Hambrabi into pieces. Its armor was no different from the paper in front of the VSBR in its high power shooting mode.
After that, the long-bladed rifle entered its cool-down mode, Ade topped up the beam shield and started running all over the place.
"My parts!" Ade heartbreakingly watched the wreckage of Hambrabi sink into the sea, "With it, I can repair my Gundam soon! Now it all sank into the water."
"You're not a bad shot, huh? But aren't you a doctor?" Ange's surprised voice rang through the channel, "But your close combat skill is so weak, yes, it makes sense, acceptable."
"I'm really sorry for I have weak close combat skills!" He replied in an annoyed tone, "Be careful to keep your distance and wait for the reaction of the other two before making a judgment."
Here Yazan had three options in front of him: first, his teammate and he try to destroy Villkiss first against Hyzenthlays sniper, which is simply equal to suicide; second, let his teammate deal with Hyzenthlays while he tried his best to destroy Villkiss; third, he himself continues to confront Hyzenthlays and let his teammate take out Villkiss.
"Why is Lingus so good at shooting? Isn't he a researcher? Cooper, you can't suppress him in the shooting." Yazan made a quick decision, "That strange small mech is very nimble, don't be careless like Hassa."
"Yes, Captain! I will avenge Hassa!"
Then Cooper's Hambrabi continued to fight Villkiss. Yazan chose to lower his altitude to put more pressure on the Hyzenthlays. Yazan is worthy of being a top ACE, his superb skills, keen intuition, rich experience, and excellent tactical judgment put Ade under more than the usual pressure.
"Friday, this guy is too strong! I can't be distracted to take care of you, cheer yourself." After saying that, Ade put his attention completely on Yazan, "Alice, watch Ange's side, let me know immediately if anything happened."
" Okay, Ade." Alice's virtual image appeared in the corner of the screen with a look of trying to say something and finally disappeared silently.
Ange turned Villkiss into the form of a small plane, it started to circle around Cooper's Hambrabi, shooting every now and then to test the opposite's skill. Her conclusion was that this person's driving skill was similar to the one just now. But this time, the other side was very alert, and it was difficult to hit the cameras again.
"Are all the Normas out there diving such powerful machines? It's a miracle that Misurugi hasn't been wiped out from the map by now." Ange muttered to herself, "How can I hit it down?"
Villkiss' assault rifle and large sword were completely unable to cause damage to Hambrabi, then there is only one choice.
"Ade, where's the cockpit of this thing?" She opened the channel and inquired, "I have an idea."
"On the torso, what do you want?" Ade sounded quite anxious, which made Ange very satisfied, "Watch out for the beam saber! It will vaporize you if you get rubbed by it. Don't mess around!"
"Oh, I see it." Her reply was full of confidence, "You focus on that one, I'll come over to help you after I get down of this one."
She turned Villkiss into the human form and continued to point shoot at the cameras. The Hambrabi avoided with ease. But that wasn't her aim, leaning into the gap in the shooting, Villkiss continued to approach the Hambrabi. The other side put away the rifle to take out a laser-sword-like thing. This is the beam saber, right?
"Vaporize when you get rubbed by it?" Ange continued to approach, "Then do not get rubbed by it."
Hambrabi also has two on-board beam cannons firing, plus the beam saber in the hand, it is on alert at both near and far range. Ange circled around it again, the other side finally couldn't keep up with the speed and revealed its weakness. Seizing this opportunity, Villkiss approached from behind, but the other side behaved as if it had an eye on its back, shooting a hook claw at her and it wrapped around Villkiss in a moment.
"How did he see me?" Before Ange figures out an answer, the strong electric current from the steel cable had been transmitted to her body along Villkiss. She can't help but let out a sad cry, "Yahhh-!"
"Ange! Ange!" The anxious cry of someone came over the channel, "I'll be right over!"
" I'm fine." She forced herself to endure the pain of the electric current, and clenched her teeth, "Don't you get distracted!"
Villkiss was pulled rapidly towards Hambrabi, the power gap between the two sides was too great, although Villkiss struggled, it couldn't get rid of the steel cable and got closer and closer to the beam saber.
"Tsk, just what I wanted!" Ange bided her time and suddenly accelerated with all her might when Villkiss was about to be cut by the beam saber. Villkiss avoided the beam saber in the nick of time and crash hard into Hambrabi's arms. The next moment, Villkiss kicked Hambrabi backward to the limit distance of the steel cable. A cluster of ice burst near the Hambrabi's cockpit, which straightly fell into the sea after that. Due to the connection of the steel cable, Villkiss was also dragged into the sea with it.
"Ange, Ange!" Ade looked at the screen and called out anxiously, but because of Yazan, he couldn't go over there, "Ange!"
Moments later, Villkiss break the water and jumped onto the surface of the sea, and a reassuring voice rang out on the channel, "I wouldn't like a scum like you even if you shouted so loud!"
" don't get a big head. I have said that I'm not interested in big tits, low IQ, violent woman." He sneered as he let out a long sigh of relief, "Hurry up and come over here! Let's take out this Mr. Beast first."
At this time, Yazan's Hambrabi suddenly shot violently. As Hyzenthlays dodged its attack, it quickly transformed into its MA form, and then flew at full speed towards the sky. Before Ade reacted, it had almost disappeared from his vision. He fired a few shots, but none of them hit the target.
"Uh, ran away?" He froze in place, "Hey, you're an ACE! How come you ran away?"
"Phew, fortunately, he ran away." The voice coming from the channel sounded a little weak, "Ade, come here for a second."
When Villkiss landed on the shore, Alice was on guard as Ade walked quickly to Villkiss and opened the cockpit. Ange was still wearing the revealing pilot suit, but her body was dripping wet. She rolled out of the cockpit and suddenly fell forward on her feet. Ade grabbed her quickly and let her fall into his arms.
"Friday?" He felt the soft body in his arms, "What's wrong? Hey, you're an existence that can kill a cow with one punch, don't scare me."
"I'm a little numb from being electrocuted for so long. Let me rest a little." Ange leaned against him weakly and even her tone had become weak, "And, Ange, not Friday."
He hesitated for a while, then picked Ange up and drove her back to his cabin and put her on the bed, then dried the water off of her with the animal fur on the bed. Ange lay lazily on the bed, letting him do everything for her.
"It actually has nothing to do with you." Ade was careful not to touch the sensitive parts of her body, "I could have done it alone, look, you almost died."
"You saved my life once, and I still owe you a favor." Ange looked at him, felt a little embarrassed, and looked away, "I warned you, don't take advantage of me!"
"Didn't I say it? You just need to keep it a secret for me. That's all the cost." He tossed the wet fur aside and sat across Ange, looking into her eyes, "So, am I owe you a favor now?"
"Hmph, it's your business to think that way, mine is paid off anyway." Ange puffed up her cheeks and glared at him, "It was you who forced me to pay it back, now you know how I felt too."
Unable to calm down looking at her eyes, Ade simply stood up and walked towards the door, "I'll go boil some hot water for you, wait."
A short time later, the young girl sat up in bed, holding a glass of water with both hands.
"Do you need some cool water?"
"No." Ange shook her head, "That's fine, I want something hot."
The young girl lowered her head and took a small sip. The huge contrast between her quiet appearance and her usual appearance made Ade drift off. He took a few deep breaths to wake himself up quickly.
After drinking the water, Ange jumped off the bed and returned to her usual energetic self. She stretched unimaginatively and strode out of the room with confidence. Ade followed her silently.
"What are you going to do next?" Ange turned her back on him and looked up at Hyzenthlays, "There's still a month or so before this big guy can fly, right? The one who ran away must have gone back to call reinforcements. I have returned the favor, and I won't save you the next time."
"I don't know. But I'm so smart, I'm sure I can think of a way."
"Well, I have a suggestion." Ange turned around, "Do you want to come with me to Arsenal?"
" What do you mean?" Ade thought he had misheard.
"Arsenal is not exposed, I have a way to make you safe over there, and this method has worked on Momoka. By the way, Momoka is the maid you have been longing for, and she has really appeared. I'm warning you, she's an important family member of mine, you can't do anything to her." Ange muttered, "The only downside is that you're going to owe me another favor, but that's your business, I don't care."
"No way." Ade refused, "If I go, what about my MS? I can't let you detain me and confiscate my weapons."
"Can't your MS move by itself? It has just been moving by itself, right? I saw it with my own eyes, don't fool me." Ange pointed at Hyzenthlays, "When the time comes, you can just run away. Is there anyone else who can stop you?"
"That sounds reasonable." Ade was in a tangle, "But I felt like something was wrong."
"Are you a man? Why are you so irresolute?!" Ange impatiently subdued him at once, carried him up, and headed for the coast, "Don't think about it, I decided for you."
" Hey?" Ade blinked and found himself already being carried by Ange, "You're a girl, right? What kind of girl would do that?! Alice, don't shoot!"
The VSBR was already aimed at Ange, and the loud alarm in his head told him that as soon as Ange let go of him, she would be dead for sure.
"Alice?" Ange drew out her gun and looked back alertly, "There's no one there, who are you talking about?"
"Uh, I'm talking to that MS." He could only explain in this way, "Your actions triggered the automatic defenses."
"But it can't attack me while I have you, right?" Ange nodded in realization and continued to move, "Did you name your MS Alice? You might be even more of a beast than I thought."
"And I'm kidnapped by you?" Ade struggled.
"Hey! Don't move!" Ange was annoyed, "You touched me again! You're really just taking advantage of me, aren't you!"
"Nonsense! How can you defile my innocence like this? I'm not interested in big boobs at all!" Ade assured with conviction, "So now you're going to forcefully take me to an island with only all kinds of beautiful girls, who run around all day with this shameless uniform you are wearing now?"
"I kind of regret it now."
"Then hurry up and let go of me!" He shouted angrily, "This is not the life I want!"
