Armory One is the military base built by Zaft's strongest force.

It has to be said that Durandal has done a very good job in expressing his ideas.

At least after the establishment of Armory One, the Atlantic Federation can't pick any thorns.

"Captain Noel, have you determined the body?"

On the way to the cafeteria, Rika Sita couldn't help asking Noel.

For now, all the new MSs developed by Zaft already have MS test drivers.

So they were really curious about which MS Noel was in charge of, or whether there was a new MS in the R&D base that they hadn't heard of.

Hearing this question, Cornett and Marlene also subconsciously looked at Noel.

Especially Marlene Straw.

He has always been extremely enthusiastic about the Pulse Gundam pilot's position.

If it weren't for the fact that True Asuka was appointed by Speaker Durandal, Marlene Straw would have kicked True Asuka aside long ago.

But even so, he didn't give up his desire for the Pulse Gundam driver's seat.

Now it's just a test after all, and there's still a chance when it's time for driver selection.

But with the arrival of Noel, Malee Straw suddenly felt that this position was getting further and further away from him.

In the eyes of Marlene Straw, Zhen Asuka was just a stinky boy, who was not even proficient in MS technology. To regard him as a competitor was to look up to him.

But if you want to see Noel as a competitor...

Wash and sleep.

In MS driving, there are only two people he admires in his life, one is the Liberty Gundam driver, and the other is Noel.

In MS driving, the strength of these two is enough to make countless drivers look up.

"Probably not, at least I still don't know what body I want to drive."

Noel shook his head.

He really doesn't know what his job is to be responsible for.

As for the MS test driver, this possibility seems too low for Noel.

It's not that he can't be a tester, it's just that he can't be a standard reference to measure the performance of an airframe.

If you want to test the highest performance and combat capability a MS can achieve in the hands of a pilot, then you have no problem with Noel.

But if you want to test whether a MS is friendly to ordinary drivers, you can't find Noel and them.

During the chat, Noel and others soon came to Zaft's internal cafeteria.

I have to mention here that the Zaft military canteen is universal, even the officers and the base commander dine in the same canteen.

Of course, as captains and commanders, they still have all the privileges that are different from ordinary soldiers, such as being able to specify what they want to eat.

But now Noel obviously does not have this privilege.

Thanks to the kindness of Lika Sita and others, Noel didn't go to the queue for dinner, but just found a relatively secluded corner and sat down.

Yet gold always shines.

All the people who dine here are Zaft insiders, so more or less everyone knows Noel Cassia.

"Hey Hey hey!"

A soldier found Noel in the corner, and hurriedly pushed his hand against the teammate who was eating at the same table: "Look at that person over there!"

"what?"

The teammate looked up at the teammate in amazement.

"Is that Captain Noel!?" The soldier who spoke earlier hurriedly asked.

"What Nuo...it seems to be Captain Noel!"

The soldier followed the direction and looked over. Although it was only a profile, it was enough.

"Captain Noel!?"

"I'm going, why is Captain Noel here?"

"Captain Noel is here?"

"Where is where-"

"It's really Captain Noel!"

"I actually saw a real person!"

"What did Captain Noel come to the armory for? Wasn't he expelled from the military?"

"What? You can't come after you've been expelled from the military?"

"I didn't mean that, I was just curious—"

Soon, the canteen, which had many topics, gradually unified the topic.

In fact, strictly speaking, an elite ace can't bring this effect.

Nai He Nuoer had too many things on his back.

The hero of Zaft, the super ace of Zaft, the pilot of the Covenant Gundam, the only one in Zaft who has been officially recognized by the Earth United as the nickname - the Red Death.

Unlike any other yellow flash, doctor, wolf, ripper these soldiers self-proclaimed nicknames.

The nickname of Noel Cassia was determined by the official document issued by the Earth United. According to the game settings, this is already a legendary title.

The current Freedom Gundam pilot also has a nickname - the guardian knight of peace and justice.

These two titles are the only titles with an official background and appear on the military mid-range.

Combined with the somewhat legendary experience of Knoll, it's not surprising that it has this effect.

But they said that, but they didn't bother to bother, just watched from a distance.

Noel is accustomed to this situation, as if this picture has existed since he claimed Covenant Gundam.

Now I just hope that Rika Sita and the others will come to pack up and eat sooner.

"Flying Bird, you are in good shape today, you didn't make a mistake."

"What do you mean there was nothing wrong?"

"Isn't it? You missed the opportunity to fly the shuttle a few days ago."

"Is that an accident, and one mistake in this kind of thing is enough to be a lesson."

"Forget it, but Impulse Gundam is really hard to control."

"It's okay, as long as you're familiar with it."

"It's impossible to say such a thing."

"..."

Just when Nuoer was thinking about it, under the leadership of a white-clothed, three red-clothed men followed into the cafeteria.

Part of the gaze that was directed at Noel also looked over with the appearance of the four.

"Hey, here we go again."

"A group of affiliates."

"I really don't know what's so good about these guys."

"..."

Different from Noel's surprise, emotion and recognition, everyone in the cafeteria obviously had some criticisms about the existence of this group of people.

"Crab head!?"

Nuoer looked over and found that he was an acquaintance.

It wasn't Talia who was coming, and was followed by the yellow-haired man who lost his wallet, Ray Za Barrell.

Standing next to Ray Za Barrell was a boy with long black hair and a red uniform.

Angry young and hot-blooded teenager - True Asuka.

As for the short-haired woman in the red uniform next to Asuka, it should be Lunamaria Hawke.

The other two, a man and a woman in the uniforms of ordinary soldiers—

The woman seems to be called Meilin Hawke, the boy with a little color on his head... What is it called?

Noel couldn't remember for a second.

"Um!?"

Hearing this unfriendly title, Thalia subconsciously frowned and looked over, then—

"Noel!?"

Thalia was stunned, obviously she didn't know Noel's arrival.

"Long time no see Miss Thalia, oh no, you should be called Captain Thalia."

Noel stood up with a smile.

There is still a certain difference between the captain's uniform and the ordinary white uniform.

The most obvious is the decoration on the white clothes.

"It's been a long time indeed, when did you come here?"

Talia saw that Noel didn't have any anger in his heart, whether it was due to Durandal's consideration or his feelings with Noel.

In fact, Thalia treats Noel more as a younger brother.

Speaking of which, the name crab head first appeared from Noel.

It made her depressed for a long time at the beginning, and even the idea of ​​changing her hairstyle appeared.

"Just arrived today."

Noel still has a good impression of Thalia. In fact, in a sense, Thalia and Durandal are also a pair of hard-fought mandarin ducks, victims of marriage law.

Sometimes Noel can't help but think about one thing, if there is no marriage registration law, would Durandal still take this road-

Strictly speaking, the reason why Durandal embarked on the path of destiny plan is that the marriage registration law occupies a large proportion.

Too bad it's just what if.

Thalia nodded and said nothing more.

Turning around and taking Asuka and the others towards the vacant seat in the cafeteria not far from Nuoer.

Lei Za Barrell nodded to Noel and followed quickly.
