Chapter 829: Guests

(The VIP group is planning to set up one. I don’t know how the general VIP group is restricted, whether it’s full subscription or what, haha. {щww{suimеng][lā})

Although there is actually not much difference between Orb sending three fleets and sending all the troops, what he will face at the beginning will be a union that has not yet collapsed. In essence, Orb who upholds neutrality has already violated the concept , but fortunately there is still such a chastity archway to deal with LOGOS, so as long as the troops are sent to focus on the LOGOS forces that can be determined, it can be regarded as a good fig leaf and a reasonable reason.

But if after a period of buffering, all those who should leave the alliance leave the alliance, then the remaining alliances can naturally be regarded as all LOGOS forces. Although it seems a little unnecessary, but reputation, ideas, and politics still need a fig leaf that can be justified.

Durandal understands Xiao Ran's concerns, and also understands Xiao Ran's thoughts. At the same time, through such a decision, Xiao Ran explained to the world that United is not Aub's enemy, and Aub never wanted to go against the idea of ​​neutrality and join ZAFT The faction of the camp is the same as dealing with the alliance. Orb only sends troops to deal with LOGOS, an organization that disturbs the world. It is for the peace of the whole world and he has no choice. It is the combined forces that left the United and transferred to Orb or ZAFT to jointly identify the rest of the United as forces controlled by LOGOS. Then Orb sent all his troops at that time, which is a bit like ZAFT, United and Orb united to deal with the bad guys. up.

Anyway, what is the real situation in this world will always be known to only a few people, as long as you make a gesture to be seen by those who don't know the truth, it will be fine.

And today's Orb, in fact, sending three fleets is not a small force. Although Orb's power has been strengthened after reunification with the Heavenly Pillar, but that part is basically the combat power of the universe. The same is true of the strength of the side. Before the battle between Orb and United, the three fleets were almost as strong as the seventh floor of Orb, but after being supplemented by so many United captured warships, the three fleets also It's almost half of Orb's combat power now.

Being able to send so many troops out, at least for Durandal, who has never let down his vigilance against Orb, is indeed a very sincere ratio.

And then, Xiao Ran and Durandal had a heated discussion about the benefits of the war, and finally set the ratio as three to one, ZAFT three, Aub one, Aub seems to get too little, But in fact, if you count the ratio of sending troops, it is really not a lot at all, but Durandal and Xiao Ran also know that such a ratio can be implemented in the initial stage at most. After the collapse of the parties, it is natural that whoever grabs it belongs to whoever it is, and they don't care about these things, and Xiao Ran and Durandal are naturally tacit about this point with smiles on their faces.

Durandal needs to enrich his own strength, and after the alliance is settled, he will remove the obstacle of Orb, while Xiao Ran also needs time and resources, waiting for the alliance to collapse, and then he will try to trick Durandal. Both sides are calculating each other, but it seems They are very close, but they have reached a close cooperation of solidarity, and the two fox-like guys make it impossible for others to see their true thoughts. However, Xiao Ran definitely holds more trump cards than Durandal, and can influence , Lux who influenced ZAFT, Kruse who knew Durandal deeply, Zhen Asuka and Lei who were regarded as trump cards by Durandal, and now Xiao Ran was really looking forward to the days after the alliance quickly disintegrated.

But Xiao Ran was not sure whether the old fox, Durandal, would plan any fate when he was in Orb, but with Durandal's treachery, he would definitely try to mess himself up first, and put Aub first After becoming the enemy of the world, he will announce the destiny plan.

After talking about the things that should be discussed, the next thing will naturally be done by the people below. Durandal led Xiao Ran to start visiting the Gibraltar base. Durandal didn't care about the issue of secrecy at all. Wherever it is important, take Xiao Ran wherever it is important, even Xiao Ran has to say such a word of obedience to Durandal, in order to make himself feel at ease, he can do things that ordinary people can't do, until after wandering around for a long time before personally After sending Xiao Ran back to the door of the room, he left and returned to his own residence.

In the early morning of the next day, there was a knock on the door of Xiao Ran's room. After the attendants opened them, Aslan in red walked into Xiao Ran's suite with a man and a woman. However, he had just opened his eyes, and it wasn't until his followers reported Aslan's visit that Xiao Ran started tidying up in a leisurely manner.

After Xiao Ran walked to the living room of the suite refreshed and clean, he saw Aslan and the three of them sitting on chairs looking very formal. Except for Aslan, the one who came with him was Xiao Ran once Heine, whom I had seen in Orb, had a long-standing friendship with his daimyo, but today was the first time I saw Luna Maria ****.

After Xiao Ran appeared, Aslan, Heine, and Luna Maria hurriedly stood up and saluted Xiao Ran. Judging from Luna Maria's expression, this girl also seemed a little nervous now, with two eyes What exudes is even more unstoppable curiosity.

"Master Xiao Ran, good morning, please forgive me if I take the liberty to disturb you."

"Hehe." Xiao Ran shook his head with a smile, waved his hand to signal the three of them to sit down, and he also sat opposite to the three of them: "Then there should be something to do if you come here early, if you are not in a hurry, take advantage of this time to have a good time together." How about breakfast."

As he said that, Xiao Ran nodded to the attendants in the room, and the attendants walked out of the suite directly to make arrangements. Aslan originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that Xiao Ran had sent people down to make arrangements, he also nodded with a wry smile : "Then respect is worse than obedience."

"You're still as polite as me." Xiao Ran smiled, looked at Heine, and said, "Heine, it's been a long time since we last said goodbye, did you have any dissatisfaction in Orb before? Tell me next time if you're in Orb, I'll make sure they correct it."

Heine shook her head quickly when she heard Xiao Ran's words, and said with a smile: "I am very honored to entertain you arranged by the lord, the time in Orb was the most relaxing time for me, I don't have to worry about anything, and I don't have to think about it." I feel very relaxed watching the battle, and I also asked Aslan to bring me here this time to express my gratitude to my lord, and at the same time, to express my gratitude to my lord for allowing the Lord Angel to help the Minerva."

Saying that, Heine also stood up and bowed to Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran also waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Sit down quickly, as long as you are satisfied with your time in Orb, lest that fellow Durandal blame me Even if he can’t take good care of his people, then I’ll really be ashamed to see others. Hehe, as for the matter of the Minerva, it’s just a coincidence. After all, ZAFT is our partner, so of course we won’t just sit and watch the Minerva. The Neva is in danger, there is nothing to say about it, by the way, this lady, you don’t want to introduce it.”

Luna Maria quickly stood up, pressed her skirt with both hands and bent slightly towards Xiao Ran: "Master Xiao Ran, hello, my name is Luna Maria ****, I have always admired you very much, the speaker has always told us that the world is So the short-lived peace is all because of your own efforts to organize the war between the United Nations and ZAFT. I am very happy to see you today. Before meeting you, you thought you must be a very dignified person. Now I know you I was also a little surprised that he was so kind."

"Luna Maria, hello." Xiao Ran nodded with a smile, and said in surprise: "It's really surprising that Durandal would praise me like this. Your speaker is really absurd. The reason why The war can be stopped, not only because of me alone, Aslan by your side, that Princess Lacus Klein, some neutral organizations who are unwilling to continue the war, such as the Waste Merchant Union, D.S.S.D Deep Universe Development Organization But they all gave a lot of support, if it was just me, I am afraid that even if I was exhausted, I would not be able to prevent the war from stopping, haha."

Xiao Ran's words made the three of them smile, and Xiao Ran's gentleness also made Lunamaria's nervous heart completely relaxed. Compared with Durandal, Xiao Ran's gentleness can make people feel really close. Although Randall usually behaved very gentle, but that kind of gentleness still revealed a kind of aura of a superior, which was completely different from Xiao Ran's gentleness with a smile.

At least in a short period of contact, Luna Maria already felt that Xiao Ran was a very gentle person, but she also couldn't understand why a person who was so gentle in private would turn out to be so tough when facing national affairs, but thinking about it Thinking of Aub's dire situation, Luna Maria seemed to understand why Xiao Ran was so tough.

Xiao Ran chatted a few gossips with the three of them, Luna Maria kept covering her mouth and smiled relaxedly, and Heine, who had already known Xiao Ran and gradually became familiar with Xiao Ran, also relaxed a lot. Showing his original character, Xiao Ran kept looking at Aslan's expression that wanted to speak but couldn't find a chance to speak, and asked with a slight smile, "By the way, are you here to tell me something?"

Hearing Xiao Ran's question, Aslan also heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "That's right, because Speaker Durandal has some things to deal with, he asked me, who is familiar with the adults, to come and tell the adults that the press conference and The speech has been confirmed at two o'clock in the afternoon, please arrive at the scene early and don't miss it."
