Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang and the girl with golden hair stood opposite each other and the young man asked, "Your name?"

The girl did not reply, she was looking at him coldly with her blue eye. The other eye was covered with a black eyepatch. Her battle suit was very sleek, and it seemed to be better than what the rest of his enemies wore. However, this did not phase him one bit. He sighed and said, "Do you have to be so cold? You are about to claim my life, you owe me this much."

The girl did not let it show on her face, but her eye fluctuated, and she said, "I do not owe anyone anything. Do you understand? Now come and die for me."

The next moment, the girl vanished from her spot and Shi Lang tilted his neck to the side and to a sidestep. He sensed a blade passing in front of him. The strike reached him before the opponent did, he mumbled, "Sword intent. Given the cold, your intent is that of hatred. How disappointing."

As soon as his words dropped, the girl appeared in front of him, and without letting go of the opportunity the young man punched the lady in her sides and the impact flung the lady far in the distance. Shi Lang nodded and said, "Your battle suit is nice."

The girl did a somersault as she stood up on her feet, but she was panting. This punch aimed at her liver, and the impact was like ripples. She was surprised to see that this battle suit could not negate the shock of the punch completely. She heard the comment and her lips twitched.

Shi Lang asked, "Are you one of the top players of the Ikeras? Do you know where you people obtain your Bodix? You just have to tell me the location and you will be safe, I will not let you die or get detected."

His tone was calm, and his gaze was colder than before. The girl did not seem to care about the slight change and then she attacked him again, this time she held a handgun and shot him while she rushed at him with her sword.

Shi Lang was moving around like a ghost, dodging the phaser beams and then clashing with the lady. He said, "You should stop, or I will have your pride crushed under my feet."

His voice was cold and his gaze was indifferent. Till now, Shi Lang had yet to attack the girl, but since she did not listen to his warning. He moved against her, his shura sword shivered and a sharp sound of excitement echoed in the surrounding. The next moment, an invisible slash was made. This attack was aimed directly at the girl.

The enemy was surprised, she did not expect him to attack so fiercely from the first attack. She gripped her blade and attacked the incoming sword slash with an attack of her own. However, the result was not something she expected, Shi Lang had a sword intent that was more refined and concentrated.

Shi Lang's slash broke past the attack of the girl and passed by the left of her neck and a bunch of hair strands was cut cleanly. Shi Lang did not wait for her to recover from the shock he rushed to the lady, the next moment, the hilt of his sword bestowed a blessing of life on the girl. She was knocked out cold with just one blow.

Then the young general carried her on his shoulder and mumbled, "What a facade."

The eyepatch on her eye was just an accessory. He sighed and vanished from his spot. The next moment he appeared outside the encirclement of the Ikeras. He used his communicator and contacted Jill. The lady sent him the coordinates and he made his way over.

After a few minutes, the team regrouped inside a cave they had dug out. Shi Lang walked in and grabbing the ankle of the lady on his shoulder, he flung her right into the wall. He was in a state of indifference and he was annoyed at this woman for acting like a big shot. The ace division shivered and Shi Lang said, "Wake her up, I want to ask her questions."

Then he sat down on the ground while the team began to wake up the lady while maintaining as much silence as they could. Crystal was shivering from the aura Shi Lang radiated at this moment. After a few seconds, the lady woke up and was surprised that she was surrounded by so many people and they all were looking at her as if she was some prey.

Suddenly she realized that her vision was clearer than before and she touched her eye and screamed loudly. She looked at Shi Lang, who was sitting in front of her and said, "You bastard, how dare you take off my eyepatch. Return it, give it back I said."

Shi Lang opened his eyes and said, "You are a bit too noisy."

Then his eyes flashed and the girl turned silent. The others gulped and moved back to almost stick to the wall. Shi Lang asked, "Who are you in the Ikeras clan?"

The lady replied, "I am the captain of the security forces of the clan."

"Do you know where the Bodix is acquired from?", asked Shi Lang.

The lady replied, "No."

The team thought this was a wasted effort, but Shi Lang asked, "Do you know someone who might?"

"Yes.", was the reply.

Shi Lang asked, "Who?"

The girl replied, "My guide, or handler. Mister Chinat, is a high-ranking member of the family and owns a share in the mecha plant."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Contact him and find where the Bodix is found."

The girl nodded and used her communicator to call back to her handler. The call was connected and the other party said, "Tril, is the mission complete?"

Tril replied, "Yes, Sir. However, this guy was looking for the bodix reserve on the Mayta planet."

The man replied in surprise, "What? Do you mean there is Bodix on Mayta planet? What else do you know?"

Tril replied, "Sir, I did not get the chance to interrogate him properly, but I would like to confirm if the original reserve is protected, how long are we going to trust those paid dogs."

The person replied, "Yes, I am reassigning you to the Befil planet. Go and lead those rowdy mercs in order."

Tril thanked the person and disconnected the call. Shi Lang stood up from his position, waved his hand like a blade and the girl was beheaded, he said, "Let's go, we have a location."

...

Shi Lang and the rest of the team rushed to another city, they boarded a commercial ship and booked a ticket for the planet near the one they were targeting. These commercial ships were too oversized, so the people will be dropped in specialized drop pods. fifty people per drop pod. However, Shi Lang and the rest booked a special pod, and only they were going to ride in it.

As they sat inside the pod, Shi Lang said, "Aran, break the code, I want this taxi to land on Befil. Even if it does not land, it should get us through the atmosphere."

Aran nodded and began working. Crystal asked, "Boss, will we not be detected by the ground forces?"

Sparrow shook her head and said, 'Next time, be alert in the mission brief, Crystal.'

The girl nodded and Sparrow said, "They do not have any satellites here. This place is listed as toxic and unfavorable for living."

Crystal nodded and understood that the enemy was hiding in plain sight. She said, "These Ikeras are quite cunning, to think they can fool the council like this."

Shi Lang leaned back in his chair, and said, "Indeed, but what if all this gets out?"

Sonic shook his head, "The council might sanction the Ikeras but that's it."

Shi Lang said, "Get to the public, before the council?"

The people were shocked, and many of them recalled that this guy had a name after Shura. Aran said, "Boss, I broke through. We can dive in ten minutes."

Shi Lang nodded and in the meantime, he contacted Harley.

...

The lady was sitting in her bathtub when the communicator rang. She accepted the call on audio-only mode and Shi Lang's voice sounded, "Befil planet. We are barging in, please send a lift off soon."

Harley asked, "What do you mean, lift off?"

Shi Lang replied, "I will not use the merc ship and also, I need a secure channel to give the Ikeras a gift."

Harley sighed and asked, "What is it?"

"Confessions of the Mercenaries.", said Shi Lang.

Harley was in doubt and wanted to ask why would the mercenaries confess, but Shi Lang had disconnected the call. Aran said, "Boss, we can go."

Shi Lang nodded and the drop pod undocked and flew to Befil planet, leaving behind a blue tail of fire and a shocked control room of the commercial ship.
