Ace Of Terrans

The spaceship from the Strike Force landed on the spaceport at Federation and Commander Silence watched as the Ace Division came down from it shortly after. Archie Arkham was not the chairperson of the General Council, and she was contacted by Jill to cordon off the region. They did not want the people to find that Shi Lang was injured.

Jill led the team forward and saluted Commander Silence and the latter asked, “Lang?”

Jill gestured towards the back where Sonic and Ajax were pushing down a med bay and Mitsu was monitoring Shi Lang. Commander Silence nodded and walked over to see him. She looked at Shi Lang’s face through her visor and asked, “How is he?”

Mitsu replied, “The condition is stable, the brain is active, but he is not awake, as if in deep meditation.”

Commander Silence nodded and then she cast a gaze at Crystal, after a second she said, “Take him to the Shadow Executioner base. I will arrange for his old team to look after him. Mitsu can follow him, I have informed his wife, and she will be over there quickly to check on him as well. Jill, escort the guest to the Sherat hotel, she will stay there until General Shi Lang does not wake up.”

Jill nodded and then left with Crystal and the rest, while Sonic and Ajax loaded the med bay inside a specialized vehicle, then Mitsu sat inside the vehicle with Commander Silence sat in the driver’s seat and Mitsu in the passenger. The vehicle started and after a few minutes, Commander Silence asked, “What do you think is happening to him?”

Mitsu replied, “He is in a deep cultivation state. His body started absorbing spirit energy as soon as it came into contact with the spirit stones.”

Her tone was calm and deep, and Commander Silence nodded. She drove the vehicle into the base camp of the Shadow Executioners, and soon they got off. However, like she told the people of the ace division, she had not arranged for anyone to look after Shi Lang, instead, he was taken to an isolated cottage.

The officer got off the car, and so did Mitsu. They both were strong enough to take out the med bay from the back of the vehicle and then pushed it inside the cottage. Commander Silence said, “You wait here, Amelia will be over soon. As for a team to look after him, I did not want to expose him to anyone in this condition.”

Mitsu nodded and said, “I understand, you do not have to explain anything to me, Commander.”

Commander Silence nodded and then after gazing at Shi Lang for a bit she left. Then Mitsu sat down on a chair, and after ten minutes, Amelia arrived. She did not seem to be informed about why she was being called here. When she saw Mitsu inside the cottage, then Shi Lang inside the med bay, she was shocked.

She rushed over, and Mitsu stood up from her chair as she said, “He is stable, all vitals under normal range.”

Amelia did not seem to hear, but she gradually regained her composure and said, “What happened?”

Mitsu began to describe the entire event and Amelia kept nodding. She did not think Shi Lang needed to go this far, but she needed to check one more thing before she could say anything. She placed her index finger in the center of his brow and then began to probe his soul with her own. She was also in the middle of the primordial soul realm.

Amelia sensed his soul awake and active. They communicated in an odd code of soul energy vibrations and she understood what was going on. This sort of communication was only possible when the soul of the other person was very close to you and in this case, it was a couple.

The lady heaved a sigh of relief after this confirmation and then she said, “He will be fine in a few days, just feed him some spirit energy. I will set up a spirit gathering array here for that purpose. I want to stay over, but the people at school will ask me stuff, and you know that they might be able to figure things out.  The family might panic so, I will depend on you, Mitsu.”

Mitsu nodded and said, “It is alright, sister-in-law. I will look after the boss. You can leave.”

Amelia caressed Shi Lang’s face once and then she left after hugging and thanking Mitsu. The spirit gathering array was set up outside with the cottage placed in the center. The effect was good, and Shi Lang was able to absorb the energy faster.

…

Hotel Sherat where Crystal was staying with Jill was a high-end hotel and had every luxurious service that one might wish for. Crystal lay in her bed with her eyes locked on the ceiling. She was bored and asked Jill, who had just come out of a shower, “Big Sis Jill, who was that lady, I can tell that her cultivation realm is golden core or core condensation realm level, however, the aura she had was too murderous.”

Jill sighed and said, “That was Commander Silence. She is the leader of the military power of the federation now. She was also the first commanding officer of General Shi back when he was a rookie. The number of corpses she has left behind to reach this level is not something I could compare even now.”

Crystal was shocked and said, “Why did you not introduce me to her then?”

Jill smirked and said, “I had already filed a report to her that you were a suspicious character. Given your prowess of charm and mind control, no one is allowed to get closer to you until the boss wakes up.”

Crystal nodded and said, “Fine, I understand, but let me meet Amelia. Please.”

Jill shook her head and said, “Not yet, you need to wait for that to happen.”

Just then the door was knocked and Jill tightened her robe to check who it was. When she opened the door, she found that Amelia was standing outside the door. Jill wanted to ask her something when the lady said, “Can I come in?”

Jill subconsciously moved to the side and Amelia walked inside. She had come here right after meeting Shi Lang. She looked at Crystal, who was now sitting on the bed, with her eyes open wide. Amelia looked at her and said, “I am Amelia Shi Lang. Wife of your commanding officer, Shi Lang. Nice to meet you.”

This was her best look when she met strangers, and that too aliens. Crystal nodded and with a bow, she said, “I am sorry for all the trouble.”

Amelia replied, “You troubled, him, why apologise to me?”

Crystal said, “Because somewhere I think I betrayed his trust when I hid my true identity from him.”

Amelia smiled and said, “I see, then I would say you need to wait for him to wake up to apologize about it at all.”

Crystal nodded and Amelia said, “Long time no see, Jill.”

Jill smiled bitterly and said, “I should have been stronger to help him against those mechas.”

Amelia shook her head and said, “Calm down. You know he will beat you up for this?”

Jill nodded and Amelia shook her head. She told him about Shi Lang’s deep meditative state and assured them he is okay, but it will take a few days before he woke up. The ladies understood and then after this, Crystal was interrogated to acquire the proof of her identity and all.

Crystal cooperated and then she answered all the questions asked. Amelia nodded and then after a quick word she left the hotel. She passed the information to Archie Arkham.

…

Shi Lang was fighting inside the Shura realm, unaware of what was going on outside. His spiritual body would fall and suffer from time to time. However, he never gave up. He kept at it, and eventually, his skills increased. One day outside was ten years inside this space, and he had spent two days already, yet the enemies did not seem to end.

His battle lust was at its peak, and in the beginning, he fought like a maniac, but as time passed, he gradually calmed down, and his skills became even sharper. This was the effect of his training, and the color of his hair turned darker crimson with every passing moment.

Shi Lang did not stop and then soon he came to the level where he was almost invincible. Outside seven days have passed and he has spent seventy years in the Shura Realm. This was a time period that could change people inside out.

…

It had been ten days since, Shi Lang entered the Shura Realm, and suddenly, the spiritual pressure in his body began to climb higher and higher. Mitsu was surprised and she informed Amelia right away along with Commander Silence. She did not know what was happening, but she needed help and so she asked for it.
