I rely on myself

Chapter 852 Reward
After sending McGillis away, Olga didn't care about her own exhaustion and called together not only Biscuit, Eugene, Mikazuki, Merribet and other members of the Tekkadan, but also Kudelia and Fumitan who had just returned.

Olga told everyone everything she had said to McGillis. For a moment, everyone else was stunned and didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

"...Hey, Olga! This is no joke. Just from listening to the internal power struggle in Gjallarhorn, we know that it is not something that a civilian organization like us can get involved in. And now you say that McGillis has invited us to lend a hand?"

The first person to react was Eugene. The first thing he did was to question whether Olga had been cheated.

Just as he said, although everyone present was very confident about the development of their own Tekkadan, they would not be so arrogant as to be compared with Gjallarhorn, a military organization that had maintained world peace with violence for three hundred years. So after listening, Eugene's first reaction was that McGillis was lying.

"I agree with what Eugene said. The internal power struggle of a behemoth like Gjallarhorn is something we cannot interfere with. Even if they target us a little, like what happened with the Earth branch this time, our Tekkadan will be destroyed if we are not careful."

Bisquet also agreed with Eugene's words and used the incident of the Earth branch as an example. Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

If they didn't understand why the Earth branch encountered this incident before, they understood after listening to Olga's conversation with McGillis. It was for nothing else but a warning.

As expected, the mastermind behind this incident should be Lesdal, and the target of this incident is also McGillis.

Just like McGillis had previously sent troops to interfere in the affairs of the Outer Circle on the pretext that he had not dealt with the affairs of the Mars branch, Lesdal also wanted to provoke a conflict between the two economic circles of Abro and SAU, thereby making McGillis restricted to the Earth and unable to continue to interfere in the situation of the Outer Circle.

The result was just as he expected. Although the conflict between the two major economic circles did not last long, it undoubtedly brought the struggle between the major economic circles directly to the surface, forcing McGillis, as the main person in charge, to pay attention at all times, which tied up most of his energy, making it impossible for him to expand his influence outside the circle by successfully wiping out the Dawn Horizon Group. It can be said that his tactics were very impressive.

As for the Tekkadan, it was just a casual act, and it was also a chance to give the Tekkadan a warning.

"There is another purpose besides this." Olga suddenly spoke up at this time, and everyone's eyes turned to him: "According to the records of the Earth branch, several boxes of magic bullets disappeared. I asked Takaki and the others, and they all said they didn't know. Originally, those were our trump cards specially given to the Earth branch. I'm afraid that somehow Lesdal knew about it, so he took advantage of Nadiche as an insider and stole it away without anyone noticing."

"...!!!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked again. Although they seemed to use magic bullets casually in normal times and a random battle would consume a lot of magic bullets, in fact, everyone in the Tekkadan was well aware of the importance of magic bullets.

In this era where both MS and ships are equipped with nano-layer armor, magic bullets that can easily penetrate nano-layer armor can be said to be a powerful weapon. So even though Olga and the others did nothing on the surface, in fact, the use of each magic bullet is recorded, and applications must be made in advance when it is used.

In this case, several boxes of magic bullets were stolen without anyone noticing, so the answer is obvious.

"To crack it?"

"This is the only possibility."

Bisquet, Eugene, and the others were not stupid and soon realized what was going on. "If that's the case, then we shouldn't get involved in Gjallarhorn's affairs. After all, if even the magic bullet is cracked, then the gap in combat power between us and Gjallarhorn will be even more obvious. If we are not careful, we, the Tekkadan, will become victims."

Bisquet, who had originally been against it, became even more determined at this moment. As for the others, they also began to tend not to participate in this decision.

Olga saw all of this, but she didn't say what she was thinking. Instead, she continued calmly, "Of course, what Bisquet said is indeed very likely to happen, so I told McGillis that I refused at the time, and he gave me a reward that made me hesitate after hearing it."

"Reward? What reward?"

"No matter what the reward is, it's meaningless if there's no chance of getting it, right?"

After hearing what Olga said, everyone else said they couldn't understand. No matter how big the reward was, it would be meaningless if there was no possibility of getting it.

Olga understood this, but he continued, "That is the location of the 'King of Mars'."

"?"xN
Incomprehensible, this is the common thought of others.

"Although Mars appears to be under the control of various economic circles on Earth, it is actually supervised by Gjallarhorn. McGillis promised that as long as we continue to assist him, once we succeed, he will give us the power of the Gjallarhorn Mars branch, which means..."

Having said this, Olga suddenly stopped and looked at Gudelia beside her. At this time, everyone else also realized what the so-called reward was. They were all unable to suppress their excitement, and their breathing became heavy.

Gudelia was no exception. She also realized the meaning and could not hide the shock on her face.

Olga looked at Gudelia and said with an unprecedented seriousness: "My eldest lady's goal has always been the independence of Mars!"

'Mars Independence', just four simple words, but they meant a lot to everyone present.

Especially Olga, Eugene, Bisquet and other members of the Tekkadan. Although most of them may not have been to school, their experience as young soldiers is enough for them to realize that the culprit for the current situation on Mars and their own childhood experiences is none other than the major economic circles and Gjallarhorn that dominate Mars.

But they also understood that they were powerless to change this fact, so both Olga and the other members of the Tekkadan avoided the topic, but now there was a turning point.

A turning point that could change the current situation on Mars has appeared. Faced with this generous "reward", even though they knew it was almost impossible to get it, everyone present, whether it was Eugene or Bisquet, who was usually very rational, were completely unable to extricate themselves at this moment.
