Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang and Cara dealt with the things of the court for a whole day and finally managed to cut down the piling mountain of tasks, then they went to the holding facility where Kilo was held. The person had given up the hope to live on and was kept in a medical bay on life support. His ending will be decided by Cara and no one else.

It has been three days since he placed Kilo in a barrier and isolated him. The team and everyone else should have regained their sobriety and Commander Silence has been undergoing therapy by OB-One. According to the reports of the bot, Archie Arkham has recovered rather quickly thanks to her mental fortitude. This was also the reason why she was able to trigger the distress signal.

Cara looked at how backward the place was and she sighed, “No wonder we were unable to track this place. I wonder how the mind of this guy was working.”

Shi Lang said, “It was working strong enough to keep all the people under his control.”

Cara snorted and said, “This guy could have played a much more important role if he was given a chance.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Well, everyone has their own thoughts, you wanted him to have a higher standing in the world, while he wished to live his life as a humble person from a tribal clan. He wished to live a regret-free life, but some greedy people destroyed his life for their momentary bliss.”

Cara nodded and said, “It was indeed a pity. Well, forget about these things, I will deal with it. What is the status of your people?”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “They might have recovered, I am waiting for OB-One to conduct the final report.”

Cara nodded and they made their way to the holding cells. They did not have much to talk about, Zyra was looking around curiously, and said, “You humans and beastmen are all twisted in your brains. I have no idea what to say, the laws of the jungle are very straight, if only your secular world was like this.”

Shi Lang chuckled and said, “It is just a sophisticated jungle, you just do not know it yet. Cara, if you have time, go ahead and visit the galactic council headquarters, the blue star.”

Cara nodded and said, “You must have gained a lot.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “I did a lot of technological knowledge. I am still lacking in comparison to you when it comes to technical details. I guarantee it, one trip and you will definitely be able to upgrade the level of the entire Arcadia.”

Cara looked at him and found that his eyes were filled with seriousness. She nodded and said, “Fine, I will put it on my schedule.”

Shi Lang said, “Inform me at that time, and I will have Shashi, the Terran representative coordinate with you. Though, keep a low profile. The strength level of our territories is not something that can gain us standing in the eyes of those big shots.”

Cara nodded, and said, “I see, I will keep it in mind.”

Shi Lang smiled and nodded, they have arrived at the holding capacity and found OB-One standing in front of the cells. He greeted him and said, “Sire, the reports you asked for.”

The young man took the reports and after checking them he said, “Good, have them come out.”

OB-One nodded and went on to open the cells. Soon, the corridor was filled with groaning sounds. Milo’s voice sounded, “Eh, did the boss finally revitalize his conscience?”

Sonic chuckled and said, “Milo, if the boss hears you, he will definitely give you a session of nightmare-level training.”

Milo shivered and said, “You bastard, don’t curse me.”

Sparrow chuckled and said, “I would love that, been too long since we stretched out limbs.”

Shi Lang sneered and said, “Granted, you all will go spend some time in Tartarus, for the next month.”

The ace division people had just come out of their cells and they were shocked to hear this cold voice, Milo shivered and said, “No, boss, please, forgive me. You can throw in that female gorilla but do not send me there. I am a Terran, I need rest.”

Shi Lang sighed and said, “To think I was about to send you down to the ninth level and have a go with me at my best, oh, what a pity.”

The people were stunned, Milo came up to Shi Lang, then directly hugged his thigh, and said, “Boss, you are my god. I will do my best to reach the ninth floor, please give us a chance to bask in your glory.”

Shi Lang felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth and tried to shake this guy off. However, this guy was like a dog-skin plaster. A calm voice sounded from the end of the holding cell corridor, “Finally, can we go home and take a shower first?”

Shi Lang was looking at this person directly without blinking his eyes. He looked down and Milo and said, “I will break all your teeth if you did not let go.”

Milo could tell that he was serious, the crimson eyes were shockingly cold. He obediently let go of the leg and Shi Lang walked to the end of the corridor, disregarding everyone, he took Amelia in his embrace. Amelia did not find it odd, she has been worried about him, ever since he left for the galactic showdown.

She coiled her arms around his waist and said, “I missed you too.”

Shi Lang nodded and let out a hum. He said, “I did too. It has been hard on you.”

Amelia hummed as she snuggled close to his neck, and Cara said in a low voice, “You people, grow some conscience, give them some space, no wonder you people are still single.”

The rest of the team turned dark-faced. They all scurried away slowly, Amelia and Shi Lang did not commit any act of affection, except hugging each other. They just wanted to confide in each other. Console each other with silence.

After a few minutes, the two broke up from the embrace. They held hands and walked out of the corridor, and Amelia said, “Can we go on a vacation?”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Yes, we need to take a vacation.”

Amelia nodded, she was very satisfied with his answer, unlike typical men, he did not use the work as an excuse. They all came out, and Cara took them to the imperial palace where she got them rooms to stay and rest. The team cherished this chance, Shi Lang and Amelia had their much-needed ‘we’ time and they did not come out of the room for two whole days.

Cultivator physique, you know. After they came out, Shi Lang instructed OB-One to copy a set of information they had grabbed from the Blue star and gave it to Amelia. Commander Silence came back a day after the ace division, with the rest of her team. They had all been turned into mindless machines that went around the empire to carry out hits on the people that were declared enemies by the Left Minister.

Well, this was a good deed, these people were all scourges, and Cara wanted to get rid of them either way. The teams boarded the warship and departed for the Federation. Archie Arkham asked, “What happened to your competition?”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “Managed to get by.”

He did not act cocky in front of Archie Arkham, despite his status or rank. She was someone he admired and looked up to when it came to working. Been able to stand at the helm of the secret divisions for a few years, and at such a young age. This was not something that a lot of people could do.

Ryan looked at Shi Lang from the side and revealed a surprised expression, he knew that the person sitting with the black mask was a high-ranking officer. However, Shi Lang was the first general, how could he be so humble? Where is the usual alpha attitude of the boss?

Archie Arkham caught this and asked Ryan directly, “Lieutenant, tell me what happened there and do not miss out on any details.”

The rest of the people also leaned towards the side, as Ryan looked at Shi Lang, who nodded and said, “Go on.”

Ryan narrated the battles and the plights with great detail, he did not exaggerate anything in the battle, but the people were still unable to digest it. When they were told how the team was kidnapped and they managed to turn over things, the people were shocked and surprised, finally, they let out deep breaths.

Amidst their laughter and conversations, they arrived at the federal space station and boarded the small vessels to return home. The first thing Shi Lang did was to call in for a vacation. This was the peace time, before a new battle began.
