Chapter 106: The Advance Team Arrives, Gifts Come, Enemies Come
After leaving the wreckage of Junius 7, even those on the Archangel who were not good at reading the air instinctively sensed a slight low pressure in the past few days.

But isn't everything on this ship in good working order?

With a man like Captain Wang Hu with an outstanding record guarding it, this ship is as stable as a rock. What could be wrong?

Unfortunately, no one who knew the inside story was willing to explain to these ordinary members' confusion.

This is very similar to the world we live in, where ordinary people are always the last to know key information.

Or maybe they will never know.

And this depressing atmosphere continued until a piece of news came.

"Have you heard?" A man in the living area couldn't wait to grab a passerby and shouted.

"what news?"

Because of the depressing atmosphere, the passerby didn't want to get involved, but he was being dragged and couldn't leave.

So he had to deal with the other party impatiently.

After waiting for this crazy man to finish speaking, he escaped and quickly returned to his cabin.

"Advance team! Come and meet our advance team!"

The man was so happy that he shared this great news with impatient passers-by.

"Advance team?" The impatient passerby's voice also rose eight octaves. He was also so happy about the news that he almost jumped up.

"Where did the advance team come from? Are you kidding me? How did you get in touch with them? Isn't the universe full of interference?"

Then, fearing that the man was deceiving him, the passerby grabbed him tightly and refused to let him go until he explained clearly.

"Aren't you in a hurry?"

At this time, the man put on airs, stared at the passers-by with squinted eyes and asked.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Originally, the man wanted to wait for the passerby to beg him before he told him.

But faced with this news, how could passers-by still have the mood to talk to him about the ways of the world?

The passerby couldn't help but put a little more strength in holding the man's hand and asked anxiously.

As it concerned a person's life and death, the people nearby who had heard the conversation gathered around and urged the man on with angry eyes.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." The man saw that he was going to offend everyone, so he had no choice but to preach honestly.

"Didn't we stop briefly at Artemis Fortress before? It was at that time that the Archangel sent a communication to the United Forces Headquarters."

"Although the Artemis Fortress was breached by the damned Adjusters."

"But the Allied fleet that went to rescue the survivors of the fortress used this as an excuse to send a small fleet to search for us!"

"Oh, oh, oh! That's it!"

After listening to the well-reasoned analysis, everyone's emotions became even more excited, but this is not the end yet!

The man held his head high with pride as he continued speaking.

"Not only did the Atlantic Federation send a fleet to rescue us, the East Asian Army also sent a battleship to follow!"

"What?" Everyone exclaimed, their emotions becoming even more excited than before.

The appearance of the advance team was good news, but the people on the ship were also aware of the Atlantic Federation Army's battle record, and that the ship was still being pursued by ZAFT.

It can be said that the advance team is the plum that quenches thirst, but the warship of the East Asian Army is the water that quenches thirst!

Comparing with the patron saint Wang Hu on the ship, the ordinary citizens of Orb who took refuge on the ship obviously believed more in the East Asian Army to which Wang Hu belonged!
Even more trusted than the army of his own country, Orb!
"Kira, did you hear that?" As an ordinary person, Kaz wanted to rush into the crowd and celebrate with those people.

But Thor and the others around him didn't go, and he was embarrassed to go alone, so he had to speak in an encouraging tone.

"Hmm." Kira replied listlessly while stirring the drink in the cup with a spoon.

"Kira?" Kaz was so excited, but it was as if a bucket of water was poured on his head. He sat down with an unnatural expression.

"Kira, what happened?"

As Kira's good friend, Thor had actually noticed something strange about him a long time ago.

He became unhappy ever since Kira and Frey followed Wang Hu to the bridge!

If it weren't for the fact that Kira was just in a bad mental state, it would have been clear that it was not because of Wang Hu.

Thor has long wanted to confront Wang Hu face to face and ask him what he had done to Kira!

"Frei!" At this time, Saiyi, who was supposed to be on duty on the bridge, ran over excitedly.

He spoke to Fulei, who was sitting at the corner of the table, with a hint of joy in his tone.

"Your father is also in the advance team this time!"

Hearing Sai's words, who seemed to be asking for credit, Frey suddenly raised her head with great joy.

"Is father also in that fleet?"

"Yes, yes, Deputy Foreign Minister Alstar is in that fleet. Fulei, you will meet your father soon!"

The nodding was like a chick pecking at rice, and Saiyi affirmed repeatedly.

"Great." Except for that time in the bridge, when his true nature was exposed in front of a limited number of people.

Now there is a new competitor, Lux, on the ship, and Frey has an unusually strong aura of a goddess.

With her hands crossed in front of her chest, Frey gave Sai a perfect goddess smile.

Intoxicated by Frey's smile, looking at her brilliant smile, Saiyi felt like he was about to melt.

In an instant, he forgot about the fact that Frey and Kira were called to the bridge alone.

"Oh." Staring at Saiyi's appearance and then looking at Frey with a bright smile, Kira sighed softly.

Saiyi, Saiyi, you don't know how scary Fulei is, or maybe all beautiful women in this world are scary! It's like once bitten by a snake, you'll be afraid of ropes for ten years.

Kira felt from the bottom of his heart that both Frey and Lacus were so scary that they were not something a normal person could handle.

"Kira." You don't look for trouble, but trouble looks for you.

Suddenly, when no one expected it, Frey shouted to Kira who was looking down with a melancholy look.

"What's the matter? Frey?" Kira asked blankly, looking up.

"Frei?" Saiyi's face froze. He also wanted to know why Frei was looking for Kira.

"These three people?"

Thor, Milia, and Kaz looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

Some are worried, some are curious, and some want to have some fun.

"Come with me." Frey stood up and took Kira's hand. She had no intention of explaining to others.

Ignoring the inquiring and sad looks from the people behind her, Frey just held Kira's hand and disappeared from everyone's sight.

“Thank you so much for coming out to support us, it’s really great.”

On the bridge of the Archangel, Captain Mariu expressed his gratitude to the commander of the advance team whom he had finally contacted.

After Alsda's nice and businesslike words, he still asked to meet his precious daughter as he did in the original timeline.

It was reduced to meaningless greetings until members of the East Asian Army, who came to reinforce the Archangel, appeared.

This is some nutritious content.

"Captain Wang Hu, I'm honored to see that you are all right. Your achievements are well known."

A man with the rank of lieutenant appeared on the screen. He had a bright smile and looked like a positive and likable character.

However, everyone on the bridge of the Archangel had an expression of "as expected", which was exactly the stereotypical image of East Asian soldiers.

Wang Hu and Li Chengzhi's faces twitched, as if they really didn't want to see this person.

"What's wrong? Captain Wang Hu?"

His smile revealed two rows of white teeth, and the youthful radiance of the visitor was almost spreading across the battleship and the universe to the bridge of the Archangel.

"I brought you a special gift from above, if you don't want it I can use it myself!"

"A special gift?" Malu and the others' curiosity was aroused. What kind of gift did Wang Hu's superiors, the top brass of the East Asian Army, give him?

Is it a commendation or a medal, or a promotion in military rank?

"No, thank you." Wang Hu said decisively without even a hint of hesitation.

"If you like, you can use it. You can leave now. The Atlantic Federation Army's advance team is enough."

Something happened that shocked Malu and the others. Faced with the so-called gift from the upper class, Wang Hu actually said no directly.

"Really not?"

The man looked unmoved, but still maintained his bright smile as he questioned Wang Hu.

"No, and nice to meet you."

Wang Hu continued to maintain his original attitude. After he finished speaking, he even took two steps. He came to the communications officer and directly cut off contact with the other party.

"Captain Wang Hu?" Seeing Wang Hu's different attitude from usual, the irrepressible inquiring look in Mu's eyes almost poked Wang Hu's face.

"Who is this new East Asian military colleague? You seem very unhappy to see him?"

"Thank you, I'm not familiar with you."

After three consecutive denials, Wang Hu changed the topic in a lightning speed.

"Get ready for the battle ahead."

"Fight?" Mu almost sprained his waist because of Wang Hu's sudden turn. He kept staring at Wang Hu.

"Hey, if you don't want to say it, just don't say it. There's no need to be so alarmist, right?"

"Remember the captured reconnaissance machine, Jinen? They are here to search for Lux, the daughter of Speaker Kulain."

"Common sense says that Lux hasn't been found and Jinn hasn't returned. How would you feel?"

Their faces turned serious, and the others no longer thought about finding out gossip about Wang Hu. No one had thought of this in the original timeline.

Therefore, at this moment, he was still foolishly dreaming of joining up with the advance team and then returning safely to the ranks of the Allied Forces.

But after Wang Hu's reminder, they finally realized the threat they had ignored.

"Who could be coming? There shouldn't be many people in the search party, right?"

With a hint of luck, Malu asked expectantly.

"Who knows?" Wang Hu said with a smile on his face, shrugging his shoulders.

"Maybe he is still our old friend."

"This" When Mu heard the word old friend, his first reaction was Cruze.

But he lost so badly last time, can he make a comeback so quickly?

And is there really enough time?
"Don't be too optimistic." Just by looking at everyone's reactions, Wang Hu knew what they were thinking.

“Always planning for the worst-case scenario will help us avoid being caught off guard when facing danger.”

"Mu, come with me. I have something to give you. I believe that thing will be of great help to our next journey."

"For me?" Mu pointed at his nose, flattered.

Wang Hu gave me a gift? How bizarre!
