"Major, the annoying flies are gone!" The adjutant walked into the office and reported respectfully to McKillis Farid.

"That's good!" McKillis Farid really didn't like these so-called representatives very much at this time.

If the bigwigs of their respective forces came in person, McKillis Fadri would have to give face, but these are just errands for gifts, and not returning their gifts will be considered face.

But this attitude does not sound like this to Colonel Seg Anse, the head of the Mars Branch.

Because the adjutant called these gift-givers "flies", even he, a colonel with a rank two levels higher than McKillis Fadri, would not dare to say such a thing!

Because these people are all high-level leaders of the major forces, if they are offended, it will still have a great impact on the work of him, the head of the Galarhorn Mars branch. Although his life was not in danger, he was a soldier of Gjallarhorn.

But the identity of this soldier doesn't seem to be very safe, isn't this Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes who is passing by temporarily?

"Major, this is not the earth, the various forces are complicated, don't offend too much, after all, ······" Colonel Seg Anse did not continue, believing that McKillis Farid understood what he meant.

"Colonel Anse, although I am of a lower rank than you, it seems that my work is not your turn to command?" McKillis Farid chuckled, but the smile was a little scary.

That's right, in terms of rank, McKillis Farid is only a major, while Seger Anse is a colonel, and there is a full two ranks difference in rank.

However, McKillis Farid is not an ordinary major, but a special major of the secret service, and his status position in Mars this time is "overseer".

Of course, the minimum military rank that can become a Martian patrol overseer is at least a major or above.

With McKillis Farid's current merits, he should actually be promoted to lieutenant colonel, but Gjallhorn's internal staff doesn't want McKillis Farid to be promoted too quickly. After all, he now almost mastered the resources of the two seven-star families, which made the other five seven-star families a little jealous.

No, he took the opportunity to find an excuse to arrange McKillis Farid to the Martian sphere, the purpose of which was naturally to make McKillis Farid unable to fully grasp the resources of the Fadri family and the Baduwin family.

It is precisely with this background that even in the face of McKillis Farid, who is lower in rank than himself, Colonel Seg Anse can only dare to be angry.

"I wonder what Lieutenant Colonel Anse thinks about Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes?" McKillis Farid immediately changed the subject, not wanting to offend the head of the Martian branch too much.

After all, the person in front of him is the first brother of the Martian branch, although he is a colonel who has just been promoted, but he has also been serving on the Martian side before, and it would be best if he could win him over. However, with McKillis Farid's identity and ambitions, it is naturally impossible to put his posture too low. If you don't have a little bit of the demeanor of a king, even if the other party agrees with his own ideas, he will not agree with him as a person.

"Superintendent Farid, detailed information on this matter has been reported······ Colonel Anse did not want to call Major McKillis Farrid his rank, only his position. After all, a senior officer reports to his subordinates, and it seems that he has lost his identity, so he still calls the other party's position, which will sound more face-saving.

As for the disappearance of Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes, Colonel Seg Anse was also deeply helpless.

He's only been in office for a few months, and the result?

An inspector has disappeared on his turf, and has been investigating for more than a week, and there has been no progress?

What does this make the Earth HQ think? Battle

At best, he is just questioning his personal ability, and if it is serious enough to suspect that he is behind this matter, it will be a crime of rebellion.

"This is not like the behavior of ordinary terrorists······ Is it intended to target Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes' forces? "McKillis Farid couldn't find any clues from the information.

The location of Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes' disappearance has basically been determined to be in an asteroid field, but the scope is too vast. According to the investigation, Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes did not offend anyone during his tenure as the superintendent of the Mars patrol.

If there is one offense, it is the task of hunting down a terrorist.

According to the investigation, there is no force behind the terrorist, including the black market for the sale of weapons to him, which has been investigated, but no valuable clues have been found.

And in the area where Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes and the terrorists fought, Colonel Seg Anse also sent troops to search for several days early, but nothing was found at all.

Nothing was found except for the wreckage of the enemy warship and the MS fuselage, but it was learned from the last contact with Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes. Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes' battleship had sent a message to the base of their branch after completing this mission.

Of course, because of communication problems, it is normal to have a delay of dozens of minutes, or an hour or two.

The search force has also expanded the search area by thousands of kilometers, but there is still no discovery.

How far can a battleship, which has just completed its mission, move in the absence of special circumstances?

Under normal circumstances, they will choose to return to the base, or patrol the nearby area, which is definitely not very fast and the range is not large. Even if it takes half a day to sail, it will definitely not exceed a thousand kilometers!

"What is the current scope of the search?" McKillis Farid asked curiously, the information only said that the search force had been working for four or five days, but did not mention the scope of the search.

"Taking Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes' last place of engagement as Lieutenant Colonel, it has exceeded the range of six hundred kilometers!"

At the speed of a warship, if it is only a patrol, the voyage of 600 kilometers is only two or three hours, and if the speed is a little slower, it may be more than four hours. But if it's fast, it probably won't take an hour.

"Colonel Anse, expand the search range to a thousand kilometers! However, you can pause the search on the periphery! McKillis Farid smiled and said.

Searching the periphery of the asteroid belt?

This seems like a bit of a waste of resources!

If Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes really discovered something and was attacked, the chances of such a thing happening on the periphery of the asteroid field are not high. But it's not the same if it's deep, it's a great place to hide.

After all, Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes completed his mission near the periphery, and McKillis Farid basically ruled out that it was a relationship of interest that led to Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes' disappearance.

The forces that can take out Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes must not be weak. And people with this strength are basically smart people, but they can't offend the entire Gjallarhorn for a little profit, and it's also because of an officer who will leave the Martian circle at any time.
