Ace Of Terrans

201 Mock Battle.



Shi Lang and the rest spend the night in Amelia’s house and then they all began to dress up to go to the parliament and hold the mock battle. The team regrouped at the dining table and Charlotte Knight personally came forward to serve them a sumptuous meal.

They were going to commute with a proper convoy provided to the mock battle contenders. Shi Lang came out of the house with the team in tow. Archie Arkham was wearing her secret division combat uniform with her face covered with the mask.

Shi Lang said, “Boss, we need to find a better alternative for the masks, this way you will not be able to get out much, also, identities also need to be sorted.”

The lady in black turned to look at him and said, “You say it as if we have already won the mock battle.”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “Belief in yourself boss, that is the key.”

He chuckled and the people got on the vehicles. After last night, Archie Arkham had asked her friends to stay on standby, since the kids would face all the generals by themselves. The decision was unanimous, and they had decided to give up on the fleet battle round.

The convoy departed and after a few hours, they arrived at the parliament. The higher-ups had declared today a holiday all over the federation. They did this in order to let the people watch how heroic they all were.

Shi Lang and the rest of the people got down from the vehicle and they moved inside the building. They found a lot of drones pointed at their faces, this event was going to be telecasted live. The team did not care about these things, they walked calmly and found that the generals were also waiting for them near the reception counter.

Shi Lang and the people came to stand in front of the general council and they all saluted their seniors. General Edwards returned the salute followed by the other generals, they had to keep the dignity of the military discipline intact.

General Edwards asked, “How would you like to have a battle with us?”

He did not ask why there were only seven of them. He did not care, the press release earlier had cleared the fact that the contenders had been given a chance to recruit teammates whether they are successful or not will not affect the proceedings. If the team could not gather more support and they tried to use that as the grounds for unfairness, they will all be court-martialed and discharged from their duties.

This was why when the First General asked this question Shi Lang replied, “Close Combat battles, all in the real world, at the same time, it will be the last man standing style.  Any contender on the stage will not be allowed to step down until they have not lost a fight.”

The people at the sides were shocked, and even the generals were shocked. Some wanted to laugh at the stupidity of these youngsters, but they held it in. The first general did not ask them if they were sure, he nodded and said, “The battle will be held out in the open, that way we will have more space to deal with each other.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Yes.”

Then a soldier from the side came over and after a salute escorted the people outside the parliament building from a gateway on the side. The door opened in a garden, Jenkins said, “I have been here once, this is where the generals fight and spar with each other.”

His voice was low and heard by all the team members. Commander Silence said, “Ace, be careful.”

Shi Lang nodded and they all stood up in a queue at the side of the ground. The generals also did the same. They had a computer playing the referee rules, with a buzzing hooter sound, the first general said, “May the best one win.”

Shi Lang replied, “Godspeed.”

He cast a gaze at Darcx as the youngest will go first. The latter did not refute and came to stand in the clear center of the garden. The first general said, “The first contender is Tidal Gaha.”

Tidal Gaha, a general in the fleet, was well decorated and was responsible for the twelfth fleet of the Terran army. His strength was half step inside ninth level. He was known for his aggressive style.

Tidal Gaha stepped forward with a proud expression. The cameras were all focused on the center of the field where two people stood in front of each other. Tidal said, “If I share my wisdom with you, you better give up before you get severely injured.”

Darcx sighed and assumed the battle stance, he did not wish to have a dialog with this guy. The computer system spoke up in a female voice, “The first battle, begins.”

The old general suddenly stood up with a great momentum radiating from his body, this was the reason why the juniors did not prevail over the seniors, the accumulated momentum. While the people at the sidelines were feeling inspired, Awed by the old general, Darcx looked very calm. He said, “Sir, can you take away the medals? I do not want to damage them.”

The general was wearing his military coat, gilded with medals. The old man snorted and said, “You will not be able to touch me, let’s go. If you do not take the initiative to attack me, I will do it myself.”

Darcx nodded and said, “I welcome your advance.”

The general was irked and then he charged forward. The old man was so fast that he left behind an afterimage. Darcx ducked his head and then took a step forward. The people thought he was attacking the air, but as the young man threw a punch, the body of the old man appeared directly on a collision course out of nowhere.

The attack connected to the ribs of the old general on the left side, and then he let out a grunt. Darcx did not give the enemy any time to regain his pace and launched a barrage of punches. The attacks were all precise. Tidal Gaha tried to protect his chest, but Darcx hit him in the body, and when he tried to save the body, the face was dropped with bombs.

Tidal Gaha was suppressed using the most basic combat style in the military handbook and the people were shocked by the ferociousness of this youth. Did the momentum from the old man not affect him? Did he really not fear anything?

The two teams watched the matches in silence, but the general council was having huge waves in their hearts. They did not expect this kid to strongarm their comrade.

On the battlefield, Darcx had gotten complete control of the rhythm and his body was moving as if he was dancing. The old general was not simply going to go down, he was stronger than Darcx in terms of the Terran cultivation system, and using his experience, the old general has learned the attack pattern displayed by the youth in front of him.

Tidal Gaha had begun his counter-attacks, and the damage he left was significant. Darcx had slowed down after taking a mutual uppercut from the old man. This was the ability of the old man, he could control the speed of objects he had touched.

Darcx sighed and began to use his ability as well. The boy was similar to the rest of them, his abilities have grown to the point where he could even tell if the thoughts of the people were a lie or not.

He had begun to predict if the punches and attacks thrown at him were fake or true. The general was having a hard time, every ability had a run-out time. That time for him has arrived at this moment.

Tidal Gaha raised his right leg and kicked the youth in front of him in the head, however, Darcx was prepared and he ducked. The kick passed above his head and Darcx closed in on the opponent, he grappled the guy as soon as he came to tackle the enemy from the back.

The take down came unexpectedly and Darcx had knocked him out. The computer system announced, “The battle has ended, winner, Captain Darcx.”

Tidal Gaha lay on the floor, he could not believe that this boy would be able to pull off something like this, he wanted to yell injustice and wanted to put up some excuse but a cold stare made him swallow hard and said, “I apologize.”

That said, the second contender from the General Team had stepped up, and looked at Darcx we a sab expression. The guy sighed and said, “Anything you want to say, Sir?”

The other party nodded and said, “Yes, are you okay with firearms?”

Darcx nodded and said, “Thank you I am fine with them.”
