The Master Chief had subconsciously thought of Cortana as his girlfriend, at first just because it would make Cortana more cooperative, but then it became a little more complicated. And since Cortana has no body, he doesn't need to affect the cooperation and even the mission because of the ambiguous relationship between the two.
Now, Kelly has suddenly reappeared in his life, and although he is emotionally eager to continue the first string, a sense of responsibility is urging him to let go quickly. Don't make an already complex task more complex.
"No, John, it's not complicated, I've figured it out over the years! We are all Spartan warriors, honor and command determine our fate, we cannot determine our past and future, and one day, we will all die on a remote battlefield somewhere. ”
Kelly said as he pulled out a multi-tool plier out of nowhere and began to help the Master Chief remove the armor from his body, her movements were very sharp, and she had obviously practiced this skill over the years. Although the Master Chief wanted to refuse, he did not make any objections in the end.
"Sad, isn't it? We're the most powerful warriors in the galaxy, but duty is what separates us for a long time..."Kelly said, removing the Master Chief's breastplate and throwing it to the ground. As she spoke, tears even appeared in her eyes, as if she was nostalgic for the time she had lost over the years that she should have spent with Master Chief. The Master Chief Commander, who was still hesitating to push her away, stopped what he was doing. Kelly leaned closer to continue talking.
"But all these constraints of responsibility can't erase our feelings, and we can still choose who to be with and how we spend our time until then!" Kelly ended with these words, and kissed the Master Chief on the lips again.
The Master Chief had decided for the time being that he would not think about any more missions, as Kelly had whispered to him as he had disassembled his armor. Said that she could reinstall it afterwards without worrying about putting on her armor again.
Eventually, Kelly removed all the armor from Master Chief and pulled him to the bed to slowly "catch up". Anyway, in the first few hours after departure, the Amber they took was hiding their course trajectory from a long way, and it was impossible to encounter the Covenant at this stage.
At about the same time, Cortana was in Cambridge discussing with Captain Miranda about changing the course. Shortly after leaving the solar system, they received a message from the other troops. The Covenant's pursuit fleet is too close to the solar system. They had to make a big circle to get back to the planetary system where Ring 04 is located.
This detour takes two days longer than expected before departure to reach the first target point. Now is the critical moment of the race against time, the sooner they find the space-time expedition, the sooner they can hope to pull in foreign help.
While they were discussing the route, the two expedition members lurking on the ship sent the Amber's coordinates in the blind spot. The Pegasos, a few hundred light-years away, immediately received the coordinates and a short message from them.
This news finally ran to Damien through several levels of the chain of command, and was handed over by him to Shen Chao, the chief captain. After seeing the Amber set sail ahead of schedule and looking for himself, Shen Chao was a little surprised. He had always thought that UNSC would not show its intention to cooperate so quickly.
In fact, according to his initial predictions, at this stage, the UNSC's greatest possibility is to refuse to trust the expedition's survival. So. He did not set aside time to meet with any UNSC representatives, as he was busy completing his engagement with the kamikaze.
: "Send the Hummingbird to meet the Amber, and the fleet's course remains the same. Our main goal is still to help the kamikaze martyrs! Shen Chao gave such an order, and he sent the only frigate that specializes in infiltration missions in the fleet formation to return to the galaxy where the wreckage of Ring 04 is located to wait for the UNSC representative, while the fleet he himself led continued to cruise in the target galaxy.
The system they are now in is an unnamed galaxy located outside the Covenant's borders, where a small group of opponents from within the Covenant gathers to spread all sorts of rhetoric advocating the division of the Covenant under the leadership of a renegade elite.
Follow the plot progression. In the coming days, the kamikaze Martyrs will lead a large group of elite Covenant special forces to capture the facilities here. Kill one of the elite high-ranking warriors who has been accused of being a traitor to the Covenant to end this partial rebellion.
Of course, after learning about the conspiracy of the Covenant's High Prophets, the kamikaze Martyrs already knew that this so-called "traitor" was actually just a man who, like himself, had discovered the truth and tried to remedy it.
He will not kill this elite warrior like in the plot, but instead he will save and unite with this man to uncover the conspiracy of the prophets. Of course. This will not be easy, as he still lacks direct evidence against the Supreme Prophets, and it is unlikely that he will turn his own special forces members against him.
And he needed to complete this task in order to gain the trust of the prophets, so that he could gain greater freedom of movement and finally get the evidence he needed. To achieve all of these goals. He alone will never be able to do it.
It would also be too dangerous to transfer his former subordinates, who had just been secretly organized. That would probably be discovered and destroyed by the High Prophets. After all, he is now theoretically still in the "probationary period". The High Prophets must have had many doubts about him.
And that's why the expedition team is here, the Covenant's special forces come and go, and only the expedition team has the ability to track and ambush all the personnel here. If they do this, they will have a good chance of hastening the outbreak of the Covenant's civil strife. And that's always one of their main goals!
Hundreds of light-years away, in the City of Fraternity, the kamikaze martyr was making the final preparations before the attack, and the scars on his body had basically healed, and he put on a gorgeous kamikaze martyr special armor and a weapon, and joined up with other troops involved in this operation in a special military port.
The Covenant's intelligence services have found the "traitor" they are trying to eliminate, and as the new kamikaze, he is tasked with leading a team of elite special forces to carry out a decapitation operation, killing their leaders before the traitors can react, and disintegrating the forces involved in this local rebellion from within.
This simple and violent method is also in line with the Covenant's usual style. Regardless of the cause of the ethnic or regional rebellion, the Covenant's solution has always been to suppress it by force, not to try to resolve the inherent economic contradictions through administrative means, let alone engage in dialogue on an equal footing.
In the early days of the Covenant, this method was very effective, and it succeeded in defeating many low-tech races. But as more and more races joined. Racial and economic tensions within the Covenant are becoming more and more apparent.
Due to the rapid population development, the Covenant's organizational structure has become increasingly bloated and inefficient. Civil strife is becoming more and more frequent, long before encountering the UNSC, the Covenant has been on the verge of splitting, and if it were not for the long-term war with humanity to suppress these internal contradictions, the Covenant would have disintegrated by now.
Their assassination target this time is not in the core area of the rebel forces, so there is no need to send a fleet to clear it, and the task of the kamikaze martyrs is to lead the group of special forces members in front of them to quietly take out the target and resolve the local crisis within the Star Alliance.
"This armor fits your body perfectly. Kamikaze martyrs. But it can't hide the stigma on your chest. A high-ranking elite commander who was responsible for leading the special forces greeted the kamikaze martyrs unceremoniously as soon as he saw them.
He is a typical high-level elite warrior with outstanding combat achievements, loyal to the Covenant, and wears the Covenant's most advanced combat armor. The special forces he led were mainly composed of members of the elite clan, and there were also some elite boar beast units that specialized in flying combat.
Successive kamikaze martyrs were written off from their personal records and helmets to ensure that they could concentrate on their "sacred" duties. Execute the will of the prophets.
So the elite commander who came to pick him up and was responsible for assisting him didn't know the previous identity of the new kamikaze martyr. However, he stumbled upon a wound peeking through the gap in the kamikaze martyr's breastplate. Only then did I remember the golden armor elite who was publicly tortured a few days ago.
"Nothing can help me hide this mark of shame, but I'm not that person anymore!" The kamikaze Martyr looked up into the other's eyes and replied word by word.
is different from the plot, there is no shame in his tone at this time, but a trace of pride. For the only thing he felt ashamed of was that he had not been able to see through the lies of the High Prophets earlier, not that the Ring had been destroyed.
As for the mark on his chest, it seemed to him now more like a medal of honor than a disgrace. This understanding is naturally quite different from the mainstream values of the Star Alliance. The elite warriors on the other side saw that he had no remorse in the slightest, and couldn't help but have doubts about the choice of the Supreme Prophets.
However, the order for their actions has already come down, and there is no time to question the candidate for this new kamikaze martyr. Therefore, this elite special forces commander can only put two cruel words to let the other party pay attention to his words and deeds.
"Hmph, you may be a kamikaze martyr. By the will of the High Prophets. But these are my people, their lives are important to me, but yours is not! ”
"I don't care! The kamikaze Martyrs returned the favor in an equally unfriendly tone. In the past, he was also the kind of foolish man who was loyal to the highest prophets, who only knew how to fight. But now, his energy was focused on how to overthrow the High Prophets. These foolish and prophetic people seemed particularly hateful to him, only slightly better than the ghost-faced beasts who tried to replace the elites in the Covenant.
