Chapter 611: Who is Dragon Spear fighting for?

By driving this special ship, agents do not have to worry about being caught even when sailing in outer space in enemy-occupied areas.

On the one hand, it is fast and flexible, and it is not easy to catch it by sending ships.

On the other hand, and most importantly, its total length is only a few dozen meters. With the help of anti-reconnaissance equipment, it can come and go without a trace.

Anti-reconnaissance equipment is generally not very useful on normal ships. They are too big. When they are in action, it is okay during normal navigation. However, when they are traveling through the star realm, as long as the astropathic tower for observation is not too bad and the astropath's level is not too poor, the role of anti-reconnaissance equipment is relatively limited. At most, it will delay the observation results and cause some deviations in the judgment of the specific location.

But on a spy boat, that almost makes it invisible.

As long as you don't drive the ship into the face of enemy ships, generally nothing will happen.

Even if they were traveling through the Star Realm Tunnel, the other party would set up checkpoints and even star fortresses at the jump point. However, the jump point was a "point" in theory, but in reality, it was as big as seven or eight, a dozen or even dozens of stars stacked together.

It is impossible for checkpoints and star forts to lock all locations.

If a large ship comes, it will definitely be detected; but if a small 80-meter boat with anti-reconnaissance equipment is located several stars away, it is really not easy to be caught.

Of course, this is not absolute.

Several of Amanda's colleagues were discovered while they were shuttling back and forth.

Even if they are discovered, they will not necessarily be caught. Although the flexible, small and fast agent ships are vulnerable, as long as they can run far away and create some distance, and then put their anti-reconnaissance equipment back into use, they can often break free from the lock and escape.

Only a few dozen unlucky guys died on the spot; no one was captured.

Although she encountered some dangers along the way, she finally arrived at the Western Front safely.

The spy ship can quietly sneak into some planets that are not well-defended. After all, most planets do not have a monitoring system that covers the entire orbital airspace. Sneak into the atmosphere with the stealth function at a relatively slow speed, find an unmanned surface to stop the ship, turn on the simulacrum system, and then use local materials to cover the ship. That's basically it.

There was not just Amanda on the ship, but a total of five agents, each with different specialties and even from different departments. Amanda didn't know any of them.

But it didn't matter, they were now on the same boat, sharing weal and woe. And she was the captain of this operation.

Five agents began to act. They used sophisticated astropathic equipment to eavesdrop on astropathic communications. They stopped and observed in various key areas of the planet. They tried to integrate into the local society and collect intelligence...

After completing intelligence gathering on a planet, they would retrieve their hidden ships, leave the planet, and head to their next destination.

This process usually doesn't take long. In most worlds, there is actually no particularly great intelligence value. It's nothing more than observing the local situation, evaluating it, and then compiling it into a book and sending it back to the nest.

Amanda's original goal was to go to the Magre Universe. Once there, she could collect first-hand intelligence. Otherwise, the Alliance would have to rely on the Empire to obtain intelligence about Magre. Not to mention whether the information they provided was accurate, the Alliance was not satisfied with its timeliness.

It is better to have your own agents to collect intelligence in a targeted manner according to your needs.

However, on the way, they passed by a planet where the Spear of the Dragon King was temporarily stationed. Amanda became interested in this chapter, and she took the initiative to integrate into the local society, forged an identity, and then used this fake identity to sneak in as a servant and mortal consultant of the chapter when the Spear of the Dragon King was recruiting people on the native world.

The risk of her action was very high, but she was not afraid. Her other four comrades had already left on the spacecraft, leaving only her. Even if she failed, she would not expose others.

Becoming a servant of a Space Marine Chapter is a very dangerous thing. Even if you exclude some Chapters that do not treat mortals as human beings, most Chapters are actually quite indifferent to mortals. It is not easy to make some trouble in a Chapter. But the Spear of the Dragon King is not like that. The blood inherited from the Dragon Legion makes them, like the mother Chapter, one of the few Chapters that respects mortals very much. This gives Amanda an opportunity.

Her fake identity was actually quite easy to expose, but after careful analysis, it didn't really matter. As long as she successfully infiltrated the regiment, she would leave the planet soon, so it wouldn't matter if the locals exposed her.

Of course, she might not be able to successfully join the battle group. But in general, she has more advantages than most candidates on her native planet. She is an elite agent trained by the Alliance and has participated in the work of subverting a planet's government with remarkable results.

It's not that she is too conceited, but she just wants to ask: In such an ordinary civilized world in the electrical age, how many elites like her can be found?
She is a rare talent in the entire league!

And the fact was, she was selected as expected, and with her sufficient knowledge, having worked for the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, having traveled between many worlds, having broad knowledge, and possessing profound insights, she successfully attracted the attention of a company commander in the chapter, and broke away from the identity of an ordinary mortal servant of the chapter, and was often summoned by the top leaders of the Spear of the Dragon King as a consultant.

At first, they mainly consulted about the local customs and practices of the local area and the surrounding world. Amanda answered these questions fluently - the intelligence she had collected on various planets along the way played a very reliable role at this time.

Later, her deep understanding of the current situation, especially her deep understanding of the Alliance, made her stand out even more. The Space Marines were surprised to find that this consultant, in addition to providing some intelligence, could often provide very valuable insights into the current situation and some of the Space Marines' puzzled issues.

They began to ask Amanda for advice on more things. Not completely following her advice, but at least listening to her, maybe it would inspire more ideas.

It was also during this process that Amanda gained a deep understanding of the Spear of the Dragon King.

She found out the causes and consequences of their involvement in this war;

She also learned about the history of the chapter and its culture. These two points are crucial, meaning that Amanda can understand the way of thinking of the Dragon King's Spears.

Therefore, Amanda can understand the difficulties they are facing and the struggles in their hearts.

In fact, the Spear of the Dragon King did not want to participate in this war at all. From the very beginning, they just wanted to mediate, help Iron Armor, and "reason" with the Empire. They never thought of having a life-and-death battle with the many imperial forces that came to encircle and suppress them on a battlefield of mutual annihilation.

At the same time, Tiejia completely concealed from them the fact that they were using the insect swarm. In fact, even since the insects had corrupted everywhere, the mentality of the Dragon King's Spear had changed.

First: 'It is impossible for there to be widespread pest damage and corruption, it must be a rumor slandering us'.

Then: 'It seems to be true, but it couldn't have been done by Iron Armor. The Zerg threat has become greater, so let's stop fighting.'

The latest is: 'It's possible that Tiekai did it, but it shouldn't be... What should we do? '

The above is the change in their mentality.

Amanda jumped at the chance.

In fact, the Spear of the Dragon King took the initiative to move south without any orders, and Amanda's encouragement was indispensable.

Along the way, they had seen too many tragic scenes of insect infestation, and seeing that the main force of the Iron Armor had never been found, their hesitation became more and more intense. Until now, Amanda felt that the time was ripe.

……

Walking in the aisle in front of the ship's throne, Amanda kept weighing what she was going to say in her mind.

Before I knew it, I had arrived in front of the heavy door.

The Space Marine who had led him all the way stopped, turned around, and asked hesitantly: "Amanda, have you really thought it through? Once you take this step, there is no turning back. I'm not sure what the Chapter Master will do. He may just kill you."

The one who warned Amanda was Ricardo Lazio, the captain of the 4th Company of the Dragon King's Spear.

Amanda had already revealed her identity to the company commander.

This was her carefully selected target. Ricardo was the most wavering one among the senior members of the Chapter. He had been against following Iron Armor and opposing the Empire from the very beginning. At the same time, he might be the softest one among the Dragon King's Spears, who were generally soft-hearted.

She was sure that there was an 80% chance that he would not betray her and would actively help her, provided that she did not do anything to harm the Spear of the Dragon King, or did so without letting him know.

The facts were just as Amanda expected.

Ricardo did not report her, and he was very interested in contacting the Alliance to give the Spear of the Dragon King a chance to restore order.

In his opinion, this was to save the entire regiment. If they followed Iron Armor down this path, the ultimate result would be their own destruction.

So, he was willing to help Amanda spread these ideas throughout the chapter.

The effect was very good, and they won over some people. Those who accepted their ideas would occasionally instill such ideas in others, even in front of the Dragon King's Spear Chapter Leader - Tai Shichen.

This is one of the reasons why Amanda decided to reveal her cards at this time.

There has been a lot of preparation before.

Amanda looked up at Ricardo's worried face and smiled firmly: "Of course, I know exactly what I'm doing."

"Well... I wish you good luck then."

After saying that, Ricardo turned around and pushed the door open.

Amanda nodded slightly, then walked inside with her head held high.

Tai Shichen, the wielder of Dragon Spear, was sitting at his own desk. He looked up when he heard the door open, and smiled when he saw Amanda: "Our know-it-all consultant is here, and dear Ricardo, hello."

His attitude was mild.

"Hello, Captain Tai Shizhan." Amanda bowed slightly to show her respect.

"Is there anything you want to tell me today?"

"Yes." Looking up again, Amanda said, "I am here on behalf of the Imperial Marshal, the Commander-in-Chief of the Southern Front of the Empire, and the Governor of the Alliance, Gu Hang. I hope that the Spear of the Dragon King will not move forward, but protect the safety of the surrounding human worlds and wait for the Alliance army to arrive and take over these planets. The Spear of the Dragon King will also receive a fair trial later."

After hearing these words, no matter how gentle Taishichen's temperament was, he couldn't keep a smile on his face.

He sighed and said, "Ah... Ms. Amanda, I'm surprised that you're a spy for the Alliance."

After saying that, he paused, looked at Ricardo Lazio who was standing behind Amanda like a bodyguard, and asked again: "How many of you are standing over there?"

He is certainly not a fool.

Just look at Ricardo and you'll know everything.

Amanda came to show her cards, of course she had something to rely on.

Ricardo looked a little embarrassed and opened his mouth to speak, but Amanda raised her hand to block him.

Amanda said, "Please don't misunderstand me. This is not a coup, and I have no ill intentions. If the Chapter Master wants to treat me as a spy, I will not hesitate to be killed."

Her words successfully attracted Tai Shichen's attention, and he said, "I will do that. I'm sorry, Ms. Amanda, you shouldn't have appeared in front of me and exposed everything. Now, let me hear what else you want to say before you die?"

He said cruel words that threatened to kill people, but in reality, he didn't move at all.

Amanda knew that she had already won half the battle since Tai Shichen had not pulled out a gun and shot her on the spot.

"It's true that I'm a spy, but these days, I've asked myself that I haven't done anything to let down the Dragon King's Spear. As we've been together day and night, I know exactly what kind of people you are. You never want to be enemies of the Empire, nor do you want to betray humanity, and you've never betrayed the Emperor."

"On the contrary, in my eyes, every warrior of the Dragon King's Spear is unique. You are not only the protectors of mankind, but also friends; you are passionate, brave, and uphold justice."

"That is why the Dragon King's Spear should never be broken here."

"If the Spear of the Dragon King is to perish one day, how would you like it to be recorded in history?"

"During the Ironclad Rebellion, you betrayed the Emperor, became a traitor, aided the tyrant, helped the inhumane Humphrey Paul, spread the hive disaster to countless human worlds, and were an accomplice in the devouring of countless worlds. You were a despicable person who degenerated to the point of assisting the Zerg aliens in devouring humans?"

"Or should we restore order, make the right decision, and join the alliance to save the countless people who are about to die in the mouth of insects, and finally atone for our sins?"

"These choices are all up to you. Who does Dragon Spear fight for?"
