Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 591 Missing Intelligence

The time spent in the long-range battle was not long for the audience, but it was quite long for the mechanical dragon and the knowledgeable people on both sides... because behind every offensive and defensive action, there must be an intention, and it was full of details.

The reason is simple: those who don't know what they're doing when they fight, or whose movements are too clumsy, simply can't get into this level of arena.

Seeing Logandau use his rarely used machine displacement function, everyone from the Allied nations felt a jolt of fear. The fact that Achilles could find an opportunity to launch such a threatening missile despite Logandau's fierce offensive pressure already proved his strength.

Alexander muttered under his breath, "This kid usually plays too politely. If he used a suppressive tactic every day, would Achilles be able to fight back?" But he was just saying it; he didn't need Alexei to glare at him. He knew that everyone's style would have different advantages and disadvantages in different situations, so to say that would be asking too much.

Alexei was still looking at the large screen in the command room. Hearing Alexander's words, he was not annoyed. He simply said, "That's just his style. He has his reasons for doing this... Besides, he still has the upper hand in this round of offense and defense with Achilles."

As soon as he finished speaking, the red and white Hercules raised its hand, and a green laser beam shot out. Having finished his counterattack, Logando didn't hesitate either; he swung the mech's arms, and two steel shields popped out, actually reflecting the green laser beam away.

Seeing this, everyone in the Allied command center breathed a sigh of relief, and Alexander even burst into laughter, slamming his fist on the table. The members of the Central Continent team exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

Zhang Jie chuckled: "Good lad, with this kind of awareness and reaction, if he pilots a decent mech, he'll be at the third or even fourth tier of combat power."

Using reflection to counter laser weapons is not a rare tactic... but employing it on the spot without prior intelligence is a considerable test of Mechanical Dragon's skill. The members of the Central Continent Team, who were in the know, naturally didn't hold back their praise when they saw Logandao pull it off.

This green laser, in the movie, is the United States' secret weapon in this war… However, in the film, the Allies learned of its power and prepared accordingly. Tex Conway, the commander of the United States' Mecha Dragons, claimed they were all spies, so there were no secrets to speak of. But the truth is, he was the spy.

Logan had no idea about the green laser. Although the Central Continent team had told him about the plot of the movie, such details couldn't be learned through hearsay. The Allied technicians were also unaware of the green laser; they had simply prepared some laser-protective devices for Logan in advance.

For example, a laser protection layer can be activated during long-range combat. Although this makes the mech appear bulkier, it's ultimately long-range warfare and won't significantly hinder movement. In the words of the technicians, this is a relatively passive defensive measure, essentially designed to counter conventional lasers.

What, you're asking how to handle unconventional lasers? Well, then you can only pile on the materials.

Logan did not use the added protective components; he simply used his own steel shield to deal with the situation... His response was far more ingenious than Alexander's in the movie!

In the United States' command center, there were cries of anguish, with accusations of espionage and such... but the Central Continent Team members in the Allied Forces knew it was impossible. Not far from the Allied Forces' command center, Liu Xi watched the live broadcast and couldn't help but sneer: "Things are getting interesting."

According to the movie's plot, the Allies should have known about the existence of this secret weapon, and Alexander, who fought Achilles in the movie, had made preparations in advance. However, judging from Mu Xiang and his group's interactions with Alexander, he is not the kind of mechanical dragon who likes to use underhanded tactics; such espionage is beneath him, someone obsessed with mechs.

Even Alexei, as the leader, didn't like intelligence... He rarely mentioned it, but recently he's been bringing it up more often because the Allies are preparing for many military operations.

So here's the question: if they don't like these methods, why are they able to obtain so much intelligence so clearly in the movie? In Zhang Jie's words, the leaders on the other side have all become their own people, how many of you can be completely innocent? It can't be that the core figures of the Allied powers are frantically absorbing intelligence while saying, "I'm not interested in these underhanded methods," right?

This was a question that everyone in the Central Continent Team had long held… When Zheng Zha first heard Mu Xiang mention this issue, he naturally said, “It’s simple, the plot has changed!” This certainly wasn’t the answer, and everyone had different guesses about the answer. But now, with the increase or decrease of some influencing factors, the answer has surfaced.

“It is known that this world is controlled by the Celestials… So after the Celestials’ control was eliminated, everything changed, and we can start to think about the connection between the two.” Liu Xi glanced at the computer screen, which displayed strings of unfamiliar characters forming code. This was an extraterrestrial information technology that she was using directly, bypassing many transcoding processes with her True Sense Vision.

“We have confirmed that Tex Conway originally had a single line of contact with the Allies. This line of contact is different from the spies currently operating in the United States, as well as the previous internal spies within the Allies and the United States. This is already a bit strange. Why is Tex Conway independent of the high-level contact line? It would be more appropriate to combine him with it.”

"After we identified the mole and unilaterally suspended the still-active intelligence gathering, there was no further activity from Tex Conway's line; he didn't inform us about the Green Laser. Considering the increase or decrease of all influencing factors, we can draw a conclusion..."

"As an Allied spy, Tex Conway is inevitably involved in the interference of the Celestials. We already suspected he was related to a side storyline, and now, this side storyline can be given even higher priority. Putting Zheng Zha there is still a very good decision."

Liu Xi stopped looking at the live broadcast. Luo Gandao should not lose to Achilles... Achilles will not be manipulated or become a suicide soldier as Luo Gandao thought, because Liu Xi had destroyed all the cognitive interference satellites above the United States from the inside last night through the True Sense Vision.

Mu Xiang left the United States' cognitive interference satellite for two reasons: first, to mislead the referee committee into believing he still had some initiative, thus allowing the Central Continent Team to collect more rewards; and second, to see if Tex Conway would replicate his actions from the movie. The fact that the cognitive interference satellite didn't cause Tex Conway to do so indicates that the factor influencing Tex Conway wasn't the United States' cognitive interference…

Rather, it's the Allied powers' cognitive interference... In other words, it's whether the tribunal still controls the Allied powers.

This is very interesting... Did he know all this, or was he just a tool that was sidelined due to changes in the situation?
Regardless, after obtaining the side quest involving this gladiatorial contest in Logan Road, the Middle Continent team will also receive another one related to Tex Conway.
