Intelligence Agency officials changed the subject, "Before you entered the Abyss Battlefield, do you remember the mission you were given?"
Alex Austin exhaled and answered, "I remember."
"What mission? Repeat it."
"Enter a high-tech civilization and obtain technological data."
"Did you complete it?"
"I was working on it. If we could have won the final battle, I could have acquired technological data from the Sikes Civilization's Descent Faction."
The Intelligence Agency official's tone grew colder, "In other words, you failed."
A failure.
This was the branding thrust upon Alex Austin after his return.
He despised this title, yet he had no way to refute it.
His team had started off quite successfully when they were in the Sikes Civilization.
They could not only complete the challenge tasks but also secret ones.
Especially in the last battle at the Delrimus 3 base—if they could have held the base, they could have attained a higher status with the Descent Faction.
