Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang and the team gathered in a meeting room back at Amelia's house. Charlotte has received the notification from the general council that the board has been challenged by a group of young soldiers, who were not satisfied with the decisions taken by the seniors.

Shi Lang was sitting on the head position on the table, Amelia on his right and Rosa on his left, with Quinn, Jenkins, and Darcx also being there. Amelia asked, "What have you done? Please tell me that you know a way around this, and you did not say it all in the heat of the moment?"

She could not believe that Shi Lang will say something like this. Shi Lang asked, "You do not have to follow me if I lost."

Amelia raised her eyebrow and slapped him across the face.

SPLAT!!!

The sound was crisp, Amelia said sonorously, "What the fuck is wrong with you? Do you think I am asking this for my sake? You dumbass, it is because of your parents, what will they do?"

Shi Lang covered his palm and said, "You know I did not mean that, oww it hurts babe."

He turned around to look at Rosa and said, "Headteacher, you have to support me if I am wronged in the future."

Darcx chuckled and Jenkins sighed, the latter said, "Oi, do you have a plan, if you do, then tell us, we are not like you in terms of patience."

Shi Lang sighed and put up a serious face, he said, "You do not need to worry, I have a way. Your father only selected the stakes, the mode of the game will depend on us."

Quinn raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you plan to do?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I have called over Commander Silence since the government has disclosed the existence of the secret divisions, it is time they get a place on the table and the right to decide what path should be taken in the future.

During our travels, we have seen how blessed we are to have a secret division. What I plan is not to make them mainstream, they will still be independent, but based on the experience and information they have at hand, it will be helpful in the long run."

The others nodded, Rosa asked, "I would like to know more about the battle modes that you like."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "How about we discuss that when all the players are here?"

Rosa nodded and the people began to wait. Outside the sealed room, Shi John and Luna were already exploding, Shi Lang had already told them what was going to happen in the future and he had also told them why he did this.

They could not believe that their son would barge inside the parliament and trash the general council, this was a bit too gutsy and just a few minutes ago, the general council had announced that they were going to hold a mock battle tomorrow at twelve hundred hours. The whole federation was trembling, the reason was that the challenge was taken up by the entire general council except for General Charlotte Knight.

...

Back inside the room, after an hour, Commander Silence had come over and was now sitting in the head chair as Shi Lang stood behind her. She asked, "Ace, what's the play?"

Shi Lang was still her subordinate so the boy will follow the rules completely, and only Instructor Rosa was sitting at the table. The young man said, "I plan to take them down in two departments. One is a fleet battle, and the second is hand-to-hand combat."

Commander Silence raised her head and asked, "Are you sure?"

Shi Lang smirked and said, "Boss, when have you seen me, bet on something I was not sure to do?"

Archie Arkham nodded and asked, "What do you have in mind?"

Shi Lang said, "We will divide the ..."

Shi Lang began to explain his plan and the people picked up the momentum, the planning was simple, and it was so simple that the team did not expect it to be like this, and not only that, if they, who knew Shi Lang so well could not see this coming, how will the enemy be able to prevent this from happening.

After a couple of hours, everyone took a little break to think and process the stuff they had gone through. Shi Lang was also leaning against Amelia's shoulder in the living room, Luna said, "Why don't you just lay in her lap?"

"Her dress will wrinkle.", said Shi Lang.

Amelia blushed slightly and said, "I do not mind."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I know baby."

These two were completely out of the context at this moment but who cared. Luna wanted to reprimand the young man for the rashness he has displayed. However, Shi Lang had pushed forward Amelia, who played the cute little girl and became his shield.

Luna did not have the heart to scold them anymore when Amelia held her hands and said, "Mom, can you trust us?"

The actions were so well, that sometimes Shi Lang even thought that this was Amelia's special ability and not turning invisible.

After the break was over, the people regrouped inside the meeting room and Archie Arkham said, "Ace, I have called over the commanders of other secret divisions and they also want in, however, they will not sit at the table if they won. They just want access for independent missions."

Shi Lang said, "I will say only one thing boss, these missions must be screened first and then they can carry on if no objections are made."

Archie Arkham nodded and she was about to stand up and leave when Quinn asked, "Captain, I want to ask why did the generals agree to such an absurd idea? I mean why risk your superiority?"

Shi Lang nodded and then said, "It could be either an attempt to make their presence and strength known to the world, after all, cultivation is dawning again and they want to cease the skies and make it belong to themselves.

Another explanation is that the First General is seeking this change in the general council, after all, if the cultivating populace found out that they were suppressed by the people they believed in for so long, the outbreak of rebellion will destroy the prosperous Federation. Am I right, Commander, HeadTeacher?"

The two people thought and then after exchanging a glance they nodded. They also agreed with the two suggestions. They were highly plausible. After all, the first General was too big of a name, and he must not have entertained such an absurd idea if he did not have any deeper reasons.

Rosa Blues said, "I can understand that you want me, Quinn, Amelia, and the two boys to deal with the fleet battle, and you and commander silence with her comrades will be taking on the hand-to-hand combat. But Commander Silence has only called in for two people.  We are still outnumbered."

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Commander Silence, will stage up with me to take down three people from the hand to hand combat. You all will hold the balls of the fleet battle with the aid called over by her. The reason is, that those old people have too much individual experience, we do not need to tangle up in their tactics.

So, busy them up with the fleet battle, I will take the First general and another one if the Commander fails. The rest of the plan stays the same."

The people did not have any objections. This way their burden will be lower. Amelia said, "We have to face against eleven people, including the two people called over by Commander Silence, it makes us nine.  I have a special ability that is better suited for combat than fleet battle. Quinn is the same, you know that. They need an operator, so Jenkins and Darcx will suffice. Why do you want to play alone?"

Jenkins said, "Hey, I have my skills for battle hand to hand, and that comment hurt."

No one paid any heed to him while Darcx was pretty chill with this. Archie Arkham said, "Ace, we can have them try, the plan will still work smoothly. Also, if you put in too many old people to watch over the fleet battle, they will put up great resistance, fleet battle does not have any use for those with higher cultivation."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Well, then we can skip plan A and directly go to the alternative. Jenks, Darcx, Amy, Quinn, and I will go to the hand-to-hand combat directly. It will be a last-man stand game as we discussed. We will just have to get the others on the table with different methods."

Archie Arkham nodded and said, "Sometimes, doing what the enemy expects is very helpful, it will reduce the load on your shoulders. Understood?"

"Yes, Boss.", said Shi Lang.
