I rely on myself

Chapter 870 Afterwards
Although the battle between Gjallarhorn... or more precisely, Eog and his fleet, which had attacked Tabins without authorization, had come to an end, the aftermath of the attack would take a long time to calm down, and the most eye-catching of these was the existence of MA.

Many discerning people can see that the reason Iogu used to attack Tabins was simply a self-directed drama, but this does not affect his strength.

After all, the army led by Iogu was called the Arianhrd Fleet. As Gjallarhorn's most famous and powerful force, no one could refute its strength. However, when Iogu and his men returned to the lunar base, everyone was stunned when they saw their miserable appearance.

Many people could not understand that it was just a crusade against Tabins. Although it was a large organization with 50,000 members, everyone knew that Tabins was mainly a transportation company and its members were basically all women.

Although they have their own armed forces, they are only able to deal with some pirates.

In contrast, Iogu and others had a full fleet, but ended up in such a miserable situation. The reason behind this has to make people curious, even Lesdal is curious.

Although he was very troubled by Iogu's unauthorized actions, he was not really worried that there would be any accidents in the attack on Tabins. After all, the gap in strength was there, so he was very curious about what caused Iogu and the others to be in such an embarrassing state.

Soon, he learned the inside story from Iogu and Julieta.

"MA?"

"Yes, Lord Lesdal, please believe me. We were indeed attacked by the MA. If not, we would not have ended up like this. When we were punishing the hateful Tabins, the MA suddenly attacked us from behind. Because it was too sudden, we suffered heavy losses all of a sudden, and our counterattack was ineffective. We had no choice but to retreat. Please forgive us."

Looking at Lesdal's frowning face, Iogu thought that he didn't believe him, so he hurriedly explained. In the process, he naturally ignored some of his own outrageous behaviors and didn't notice the contemptuous look of Julieta beside him.

Seeing that Iogu was about to continue explaining, Lesdal interrupted impatiently, "Okay, Iogu, I get it. I don't disbelieve you. It's just that the MA, which had completely disappeared after the Calamity War, has reappeared now. Even I can't react for a while after hearing this."

This is not the case. Although Lesdal was indeed very surprised at the reappearance of MA, as a superior he was more concerned about the impact of MA's appearance on the current situation. As for the truth or falsehood that Iogu was worried about, that goes without saying.

Except for Iogu, the other Gjallarhorn soldiers were not blind. So many people saw it and reported it. There were even videos of ships and aircraft. Naturally, Lesdal would not doubt its authenticity.

But before that, Lesdal had to ask Iogu about another matter, so he asked bluntly: "Iogu, compared to MA, I have another thing to ask you before that. Why did you take out Dainsniff from the warehouse and attack Tabins? Tell me, what do you really think!"

When asking this question, the expression on Lesdal's face was extremely serious, and his whole body exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Seeing Lesdal like this, Iogu realized something in his heart, but he didn't react. He just replied: "Lord Lesdal, I am doing this to help you. I have already investigated clearly. Although it is the Tekkadan that assists McGillis on the surface, it is Tabins who protects the Tekkadan and serves as its backer. As long as Tabins disappears, the Tekkadan without protection will be just a group of little devils. There is nothing to be afraid of, right?"

At the end of his speech, Iogu was very excited, as if he was very proud of what he had said. He even felt like a child showing off to a respected elder. Perhaps that is what it should be said.

After hearing this, Lesdal finally understood what Iogu was thinking, and he looked very troubled. Lesdal looked at Iogu, who was still talking to himself with a show-off look on his face, and interrupted him directly: "Okay, Iogu, that's enough, stop it!"

"Uh...Lesdal, sir?" At this moment, no matter how slow he was, looking at Lesdal's appearance, Iogu was more or less aware that he seemed to have messed up again.

"Iogu, as one of the heads of the Seven Star Family, you must understand that Gjallarhorn must show order and restraint to the world. This is all I can say. I hope you understand."

After saying that, Lesdal directly signaled Iogu to leave, completely ignoring Iogu's look as if he wanted to say something.

Although he wanted to say something, Iogu finally did not dare to disobey Lesdal's words and left the room.

As the door closed and Iogu left, Lesdal sighed helplessly and looked at the other party involved, Julieta.

"Sorry for the wait, Julieta."

"No! I should be the one saying this. I'm sorry, Lord Lesdal, I'm the one who disappoints you!"

"It's not disappointing, but since you said so, then tell me. Although I have the report and information below, I still want to hear from you personally about the so-called MA."

The moment she heard the name 'MA', Julieta's expression instantly became serious, and she said seriously: "Yes, Lord Lesdal! The situation at that time was probably......"

From Julieta's own description and the report materials in his hand, Lesdal sorted out the whole incident.

"Is that so? It really deserves to be the culprit that caused the Disaster War three hundred years ago. Just one machine was able to fight against an entire fleet. Although it was suspected of a sneak attack at the beginning, its power cannot be denied."

After Julieta finished her story, Lesdal only felt his headache getting worse. At first, he still held on to some hope, thinking that the reason why they were in such a mess and suffered such a huge loss this time was because of Iogu's help, because there had been a precedent.

And this is indeed the case. Iogu did issue some wrong orders in the battle with MA, but according to Lesdal's speculation, even if Iogu did not make any mistakes, Gjallarhorn's strength at the time was not enough to fight against MA.

Even if he were to replace them, at most the losses would not be so serious, but there would be no possibility of defeating the opponent.
