An alarm sounded, signaling that a pirate crew was coming to rob the goods.
Long Fei, Li Xiucheng, and two other MS mercenary pilots each piloted their own MS to launch an attack.
Four MS were ejected.
"What's going on? A pirate crew actually came to rob us as a group?" a blue-haired female pilot said.
The pirate group that came to rob them consisted of four ships, all of which were converted cargo ships. Two of the pirate groups had different flags, which indicated that they were different pirate groups.
Most of the mobile suits dispatched were modified engineering mobile suits, while a small number were probably repaired mobile suits that were severely damaged on the battlefield and then put into combat.
Besides MS, there are also some fighter jets that have been phased out.
A single pirate crew wouldn't dare to rob a cargo ship guarded by the Skywing Mercenary Group, but the combination of two pirate crews emboldened them.
The two pirate groups dispatched a total of 40 mobile suits and 8 fighter jets.
Two cargo ships followed closely behind the frigate.
Long Fei was handling ten MS units by himself.
Long Fei, piloting his original Gundam, charged ahead into the pirate crew's mobile suit formation.
Control fired three shots in quick succession, destroying all three mobile suits.
Long Fei's actions immediately caught the attention of many pirate mobile suit pilots. He instantly destroyed three mobile suits, leading the pirates to believe that Long Fei, who piloted the original Gundam, was an ace pilot.
Many of them even locked onto Long Fei by MS pilots.
Countless shells rained down on Long Fei.
As the alarm continued to sound in the cockpit, Long Fei used the pedals and levers to evade. While dodging, Long Fei could also counterattack, taking down an enemy with a single shot.
"Wow, boss is really amazing. The battle has only lasted a minute and you've already taken down ten mobile suits. I've only taken down three so far," said a bald, dark-skinned black man.
"Pani, you're so lame. Most of the enemy's attention was already drawn to the boss, and you've only taken down three. I've taken down five." The blue-haired female mercenary pilot said.
"Avina, you have time to complain about your companions, why don't you focus on helping the boss deal with the other enemies?" Li Xiucheng's accusation came through the video call.
Avina stuck out her tongue and quickly helped her boss deal with the other pirate MS pilots.
Long Fei had switched from a beam rifle to a rocket launcher. He aimed at a fighter jet, pressed the fire button, and hit it with a single shot, causing the fighter jet to explode in a huge blast circle.
Long Fei discovered that the remaining seven fighter jets were about to break out of the battlefield and head towards the cargo ship.
Long Fei immediately switched his weapon to a beam rifle, sprinted at full speed, aimed at the target and fired, firing one shot every two seconds, each shot destroying the fighter jet.
The two pirate captains, seeing that their mobile suits had been destroyed in less than two minutes of combat, immediately issued a retreat signal.
"Tch, how boring, you scared them away so easily," Avina said dismissively.
"The boss's MS beam rifle is much more powerful than the beam rifle used on our GM MS. We might not even be able to take down a MS with one shot, but the boss just blew it up with one shot," Pani said with envy.
"I hope the boss can manufacture a few more of these MS for us. Then our mercenary group will be able to roam freely in this area, and any pirate group will have to give us a wide berth."
"Gentlemen, you're in the mood for idle chatter, why don't you return to the frigate immediately?" Long Fei's question popped up on the video communication screen.
The two men shrank back and quickly maneuvered their mobile suits back to the frigate.
Longfei was not very satisfied with this operation. This level of performance was not enough to test where the Gundam was lacking. Most of the engineering work involved modifying MS, and the actual combat performance was far from ideal, although the pirate crew also had a small number of MS that were standard equipment used by some countries.
However, in terms of overall combat capability, the pirate crew is far inferior to the regular army, especially in terms of MS operation, which is far from ideal. This level of capability is simply insufficient to highlight the power of the Gundam and to identify its shortcomings.
The pirates' fighter jets were outdated and not very fast. Even if someone else piloted the original Gundam, as long as their piloting skills weren't too bad, they could easily shoot down those fighter jets.
For two days, the cargo ship was not attacked by pirate groups and was safely escorted to the Kingdom of Corsoras.
Kosolas is also an independent nation among the space colonies, with only three colonies. Among the many nations, it is only a second-rate country, basically a fifth-rate one.
The total population is less than 4 million.
The Kingdom of Kosoras mainly relies on meteorite mines within its sphere of influence and domestic agricultural products for export as foreign exchange. Its GDP is very low, even more than double that of the Kingdom of Mikaon.
The frigate will undergo repairs in the dock for two days, while waiting for any merchants to come and hire it.
Long Fei rode his motorcycle alone, observing the local customs and conditions of the third colony of Kosoras. He found that the economy and people's livelihood were not good, the surrounding infrastructure was very poor, and he saw many people dressed in tattered clothes sitting idly on the side of the street.
Long Fei decided to go to a more prosperous area, where the economy was better, there were industrial factories and some basic equipment, and he saw some people in work clothes working busily.
Long Fei took out his mobile phone, turned on his specially made communication line, and contacted his factory manager, Simmons.
Are there any other materials that the Simmons factory is lacking?
After receiving Simmons' reply, Long Fei went to the relevant factory to purchase the necessary metal materials.
After visiting several factories and signing several material orders, I notified Simmons to arrange for pickup.
Long Fei checked the time; it was already evening. The sky over the colony was already showing signs of dusk. Many factories had already stopped operating, while some were still working overtime.
Longfei decided to go to the city center to find a restaurant to fill his stomach.
The city center is quite bustling, with some bars and entertainment venues.
After finishing his meal, Long Fei took a walk in the city center to enjoy the scenery, treating it as post-meal exercise.
Arriving at a park, looking at the fountain, Long Fei continued to relax when he heard a voice calling "Little Fei Fei" from not far away.
Long Fei frowned upon hearing the name Xiao Feifei, and his expression turned rather unpleasant. Xiao Feifei was his childhood nickname, and besides his mother, there was another woman who called him that.
She was his aunt, who was fifteen years older than him, but she was like an older sister to him.
Long Fei turned his head in the direction of the sound and saw a beautiful young woman who looked to be in her early twenties staring at him in surprise.
Long Fei never expected to meet his aunt, Long Huijuan, here.
Long Huijuan never expected to run into her nephew, whom she hadn't seen for several years, here.
Long Fei was born into a prominent business family. The head of the family, Long Dingkun, was Long Fei's grandfather. His father, Long Yingxuan, was Long Dingkun's third son. Long Huijuan was the head of the family's fourth child, the youngest child, and the only daughter, who was the head of the family's favorite.
Lung Ying-hsuan was not as good at business as his two older brothers, and his father did not pay much attention to him. Therefore, when Lung Ying-hsuan lived in the Lung family, he had a relatively easy life and was not subject to much restraint.
However, his marriage was arranged by his father, but Lung Ying-hsuan refused his father's arrangement and even had a falling out with him.
Because Lung Ying-hsuan's wife, Wu Chien, was born into a relatively ordinary family. In the context of the Lung family, a family with a history of hundreds of years, she was from a low-end family and not worthy of such a prestigious family.
Lung Ying-hsuan did not receive blessings from the Lung family when he got married, and no member of the Lung family attended his wedding.
Long Huijuan is the daughter of Long Dingkun, who had her late in life. She is very much loved by her father and can be described as a spoiled little princess of the Long family. However, for some reason, this spoiled little princess has a particularly good relationship with her third brother.
When Long Fei was a child who had transmigrated and reincarnated, this aunt often came to visit. As a child, he was often teased by this willful aunt. Long Fei was not an ordinary child either; he had transmigrated and reincarnated into this other world with the soul of an adult.
He also noticed that although Long Huijuan was an aunt, her behavior was like that of an older sister teasing her younger brother.
Moreover, Long Huijuan and her eldest sister Long Kui are not much different in age, with Long Huijuan only being a few years older than her eldest sister.
