Chapter 299 - 215: We All Found the Wrong Opponent_l



Harrison Clark didn’t know much about what was going on over at the conference, but Nora Camp on the other end spontaneously started talking with him again.

“You’re just watching, right?”

She asked.

Harrison replied, “Yes, things don’t seem to be going too well.”

“That’s to be expected. There’s some secret information that ordinary soldiers shouldn’t know, but I think I can tell you.”

“Go ahead.”

“In six months, once the Titan Research Institute has finished deciphering and applying the new gravitational wave field and pseudo-curvature technology to our equipment, the Freedom Front will launch an all-out attack on radium, success or martyrdom. So, the real reason everyone is determined to reject me is that I only have half a year to rebuild the Vertical Formation.”

Harrison thought about it from his perspective, and the decision seemed reasonable.

There was no doubt that the invaders were after humanity.

So, even if the chances were slim and the odds were low, humans had to resolve the radium issue in advance and leave plenty of time to recuperate for the battle.

Death was inevitable, so why care about half a year’s difference?

By resolving the radium issue first and absorbing all its results, humanity might still have a glimmer of hope.

Harrison knew the answer to this core issue because he had experienced it many times, but he didn’t expect that there would be people within the Freedom Front with the foresight and decisive courage to understand the nature of the invaders hidden behind the Solar System Barrier.

“I also know that they think my biggest flaw is that I am not stable enough and too unpredictable. So, they must think that under these circumstances, it’s not appropriate for me to rebuild the Vertical Formation, as this would maintain the stability of each Vertical Formation’s combat power. They will temporarily isolate me or let me be the deputy.”

” But I believe that if I can win the Mars Commander Contest in five months, they will still not hesitate to recommend me as the overall commander of the Mars Legion.”

Harrison thought for a few seconds and replied, “That makes sense.”

“But I just can’t accept it.” Nora’s tone changed, “You don’t think I’m too overbearing and conceited, do you?”

Harrison laughed, “How could I? I know your abilities better than you know them yourself.”

“Huh?”

Harrison suddenly said, “Your favorite song is ‘Self-Combustion’; your favorite movie is ‘Across the Starry Sky’; when you eat cake, you like to triple the sweetness; your most frequent catchphrase is ‘I’m not afraid of death’. Apart from achieving war victory, what you most want to do is give birth to a genius son who can inherit both your command ability and your child’s father’s combat ability.”

Nora was shocked and it took her a long time to respond in astonishment, “How do you know all this? Many soldiers prefer Carrie Thomas’s ‘Sharp edges fully exposed’; I enjoy it too, but ‘Self-Combustion’ just gives me more feelings. And the sweets thing is even more unreasonable; I usually hide away and eat them by myself, so no one can tell by my figure. And there’s more…”

Harrison smiled, “It’s because I’ve been paying attention to you for many years.”

“You’re lying. You haven’t even been at the base for a year, and you’ve only been an Eagle Strike Warrior reserve soldier for two months. You’d never seen me before.”

Harrison laughed again, “Can’t I dream about you in my sleep?”

“Hmm, yes, you can.”

The voice on the other end became quieter and more hesitant.

Even without seeing her, Harrison could guess Nora was probably blushing.

“Anyway, no matter what decision you make, I believe in your correctness. You can go and do it with confidence, and if there’s a huge mistake, I’ll cover for you when I recover. As long as the Titan Research Institute can give me Hawk Armor with enhanced energy storage, even if I have to face three Halo War Beasts at once, I’ll tear them apart for you to see!”

Her voice suddenly grew much louder, “All right! I’ve made up my mind.”

A few minutes later, Gaius and Felix Yeoman, along with other team leaders, returned to the conference room, giving a response that was in line with Nora’s predictions.

In the end, Gaius said, “I’m sorry, Captain Camp, but this decision was taken collectively by the front-line Vertical Formation leaders. You have to face reality.”

Nora shook her head, “I won’t join any Vertical Formation. I don’t need your help rebuilding either. Right now, I have only one request: hold the Mars Commander Contest originally planned for five months from now, earlier! I will prove my abilities in the competition. Then, those who are willing to follow me will naturally come. Given the great sacrifices my Giant Wave Vertical Team has made to capture the chips, you can’t even agree to such a small request, can you?”

After a brief discussion, Nora’s proposal was accepted.

With the entire Mars Base mobilized, preparations were underway for what could be humanity’s last planetary commander military simulation competition.

The contest would take place in three days, lasting three days, with all Mars commanders participating.

The competition format would involve randomly selecting two commanders to face off.

The specific contest would involve both sides conducting three small, medium, and large-scale battles in a data simulation system.

The Mars Super Brain Center would evaluate their overall performance in the competition, determining the winner and loser.

Winners would advance, losers would be eliminated.

When competition reached the final stage with 512 commanders left, the Super Brain Center’s scoring criteria would become more complex and detailed, selecting leadership teams for both the overall and regional commands based on overall scores, placing each individual in the most suitable position..
