Ace Of Terrans

He took a deep breath after carefully judging the lethality of the attack. It seems as if the arcadian prince wanted to kill him or any Terran that he could before he was put down. Shi Lang would have fulfilled his last wish but he was not yet so generous. As the claw attack passed over his head, Shi Lang weaved his body to the side, and with a bang, a punch landed right on the ribcage of the enemy.

The punch was compact and Shi Lang has made sure to put his whole body behind it. The Arcadian prince did not expect the impact to be so, rattling.

…

Jenkins was watching from the outside, he said, “He will go all out.”

Darcx looked at him and asked, “Why is your face so dark?”

Amelia smirked and said, “Bad memories.”

…

Shi Lang had landed a punch and he did not intend to let his enemy rest. The next moment he punched the Arcadian prince in the abdomen with his right fist, making the guy keel over, Shi Lang made his diaphragm spasm. Without the movement in Diaphragm, it was impossible to breathe.

With the breathing disrupted the attempt to counterattack was futile. Shi Lang did not hesitate, his next punch was a strong right directly hitting the chin of the enemy. The body was straight once again, but the Arcadian price could not react, he was out of breath, and his motor neurons were disorientated from the uppercut just now.

Shi Lang took another compact left fist directly where there would be the liver in the human body. Although the body of the Arcadian prince seemed to be as strong as iron. Shi Lang was not lesser either. He started to increase his speed, and after five blows, before the arcadian prince could ever register an attack, Shi Lang had broken the spine of the prince.

The Arcadian was in a shape that he did not expect, the fight was being telecasted around the whole fleet. Shi Lang was so strong that he did not provide the other party with a chance to counter at all.

That was not all, Shi Lang had a clear motive in his mind, which was to kill this guy. Yes, they got a lot of data but that was not too much, it was more like beat you before kill you session. The aracadian prince lay on the floor with his spine broken, groaning in pain. Shi Lang stood beside the prince, he took hold of the back of the head of the prince, placed his other hand below the chin of the prey.

Then with a click the neck was snapped and the prince gained eternal freedom. Shi Lang stood up and stretched his body and walked out of he holding cell. He cast a gaze at Amelia and the girl nodded. The whole fight has been telecasted to a special channel leading to the display in front of a little girl sitting back at Nestia.

Cara was left to at the Nestia for safety reasons. Well they still did not believe her completely. What if she decided to play with a bomb on the command ship and killed a thousands of their troops as a game?

Shi Lang and he group then came to there personal rooms, they were going to prepare for departure. The destination was Arcadia, and the task was to assassinate the imperial family without raising the alarm. If the galactic council found them to be nosy in the matter, and if they found that the allied forces took actions in the shadow, they will be sanctioned.

The sound of a sanction was never liked by the wise and the fools all the same. The team geared up and they selected a small Arcadian ship from the captured vessels. This was the safest way to avoid the patrols on the way, if their were any. However, the biggest problem was that th people did not know how to speak Arcadian.

So, Shi Lang asked the Neomonian princess to find them one of the people who knew how to speak and understands Arcadian language. He stated, “I do not want someone perfect, just enough to know the brought meaning on the things the Natives say.”

Nexa nodded and within ten minutes she screened the information of the few people rated better than her and in the end she said, “Shusha Ace, the person I selected for you is a male, I hope you can accommodate him.”

Shi Lang almost blurted out, ‘what is it supposed to mean?’ but due to the time constraint he gave up on the further entanglement and said, “Tell thsi person to report at vessel C24. He has twenty minutes.”

That said, the communication was terminated. Shi Lang reported to Archie Arkham and Stevenson about what he hand on mind and the people nodded in understanding.

In the end of the meeting, Stevenson said, “Ace, do what you deem necessary. Understand?”

The people nodded and then Shi Lang and his team were given the permission to take off. They space jumped to reach their vessel. After confirming that the ship was not rigged by any trap or something. Shi Lang and Quinn took the pilot seat.

They were going to be controlling the vehicle. Just when twenty minutes were about to finish, Jenkins said, “Your interpreter has arrived.”

Shi Lang said, “About time. Let him on board, Jenks, brief him.”

Jenkins nodded and said, “Aye Aye captain.”

The neomonian got onboard with a goofy smile but sensing the solemnity of the vibes made him silent. He could tell from the gazes of the people on board that they will not hesitate killing him if he did not realize the gravity of the situation.

Shi Lang waited for a few minutes and when Jenkins was done telling the basic details to the person, he ignited the ship and controlled the ship to get away from the numbers of other ships, and when they were in a open space, the vessel did a space jump.

(There are two sort of space jumps. One is the ship’s capability to travel long distances in a blink, the other one is to jump as an individual from point A to point B)

Shi Lang and the team did not find any patrol on the way, and this was even more pedantic that running into complete fleet. Darcx asked, “Could it be that the survivors have reached back at the Arcadian capital?”

Amelia nodded and said, “Most likely, that should be the case. It could be that after losing a whole fleet, they have started to regroup?”

Shi Lang nodded but after recharging the spaceship was put into a space jump again. They were making a beeline to the capital of the Arcadian Empire. Suddenly, Shi Lang adjusted the course, and Quinn asked, “What are you doing?”

Shi Lang said, “We take cover in the shadow of the moon, and then wait for an optimal timing to invade the planet.”

The people nodded, they hid in the plane sight, after six hours, Darcx said, “Whoa, captain, look at that.”

Shi Lang woke up and spotted movement, Jenkins leaned over to his shoulder to watch what was going on and Amelia said, “They are rallying all the troops to move ahead and form a defensive parameter around Arcadia.”

She pointed a finger at the Neomonian guy. Shi Lang nodded and said, “This is our chance.”

Quinn asked, “What do you intend to do?”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “When they are half way between us and the planet, we go to space jump and place ourselves behind them.”

Quinn chuckled and said, “You finally got the spirit to do the lob maneuver.”

The people did not understand what they meant but they had a bad feeling about this. Quinn said, “Kids, strap in. Mommy will take you all on a roller coaster.”

Shi Lang chuckled and then began to input the formula for the space dive in the system that controlled the trajectory of the vessel during a space jump. As they did the enemy ships have began to from an all-round parameter around the planet.

It was like a web of spaceships. Shi Lang and Quinn were to get through the holes in the web at a high speed to be undetected. Quinn said, “Captainnnn….”

She was reminding him that the enemy is coming closer, and Shi Lang said, “Done.”

Quinn pushed the lever forward to the limit and the ship vanished from its spot.

…

After a minute, Shi Lang and the rest were lying next to a crashed space ship. They were all shakened. However, this was a cost to get through undetected. Shi Lang regained some energy and took off his mask to catch some breath, as he inhaled and exhaled heavily, his eyes opened wide. This expression, no one would have ever witnessed on his face.

In his eyes, there was a hint of mania. Shi Lang sat up and mumbled, “Spirit.” as his body trembled.
