Ace Of Terrans

Shi lang did not expect this lady to be coming at him like this. He did not expect her to come up and give him a challenge. This was something none of the people in the training ground had expected to happen. The guard captain was the captain for a reason.

Ameris took off her jacket and said, “Shusha Ace, I have heard about the abilities you Terrans command. I would very much like to test them.”

Shi Lang tilted his head and asked, “Why shall I accommodate you?”

His remarks surprised the people even more. Ameris did not back off and said, “The others will think of you as a coward.”

“They can think of me how they want to, but it has nothing to do with me, I did not come here to provide you all some satisfaction in life, did I?” retorted Shi Lang.

Ameris nodded and said, “If you fought me without holding back anything, then I will do one thing for you. It could be anything.”

Shi Lang held his chin between his fingers. and said, “Very well, I would like you to fight with all that you have. And I would like to use, cold weapons. Do you agree?”

Ameris was surprised by his demand. She asked, “You better be careful with what you wish for. Sometimes people do not like it very much.”

Shi Lang chuckled and said, “A hunter never goes after a weak prey, Captain Ameris.”

His confident manner made every Neomonian think of him as a maniac. This was not something they would ask for in return. Ameris chuckled after hearing his demand and said, “Very well. I agree, but does Instructor Rosa agree?”

Shi Lang dismissed Rosa’s thoughts of stopping him as he said, “I am the leader of the team, I can decide what I want to do.”

Ameris nodded and asked, “What is the weapon of your choice?”

Shi Lang replied, “Spear will do, and a hand knife.”

The lady nodded and called over a subordinate to get them the weapons. Neomonians used the spear as the first choice of their cold weapons. So, Ameris was more than happy to accommodate him. Terrans were not very worried.

Amelia said, “Fifty Thousand Credits, he will win.” in a flat voice.

An officer from the Neomonian side spoke up, “We do not know what is this credit you speak of, but I can tell that you are all betting. We would like to push for our Captain if you do not mind.”

Quinn chuckled and said, “We are obliged to have you join us. What do you bet on?”

The officer said, “We are hundred palace guards at her majesty’s service. Since our captain is playing against you, we shall all pitch in to meet you on the price.”

Darcx asked, “We do not have many neo coins on us.”

The officer nodded and said, “We have money, but we do not have Terran items. If you all can exchange them for the money, we do not mind. For Example, the dress worn by Shushi Amelia on the ball night.”

The terrans looked at each other and said, “Okay.”

The bet was set and the stakes were decided. Shi Lang did not bother with anything and he swung the spear for a few seconds to get used to the weight of the weapon. He said, “This is a good weapon.”

Ameris nodded and said, “The smiths will be pleased to see you praised them.”

Shi Lang smiled and Rosa said, “Begin.”

Ameris took a big step forward and stabbed the spear at Shi Lang, the speed of the attack was fast. Ameris had loosened her grip to let the spear slide forward, she planned to hold it from the end and turn the attack into a swing if Shi Lang dodged her.

However, the surprise came in a bit too early. When she stabbed forward, Shi Lang held his spear from the middle, and using the shaft he swung the weapon, to counter the incoming stab, and at the same time, he took a step forward.

His face was as cold as if ice. Ameris realized that the boy was not joking at all. He was fighting her with his all, he has taken the initiative to launch an attack right after countering her. She could not even count him properly, because the previous attack from Shi Lang had deflected the spear in her hand.

Ameris decided that it was better for her to move back. She jumped back, but Shi Lang had switched his hold on the shaft, and threw it forward like a javelin. The point of impact happened to be exactly where Ameris would land.

The Neomonians found their hearts to be beating so fast that it was almost exploding. Shi Lang, on the other hand, did not stop, he took out the military combat knife and holding it in a reverse grip, advanced.

Ameris was not so weak. She skillfully stomped her foot on the head of the incoming spear and gained more distance. But the Terran boy was onto her. Ameris realized at this moment that she had lost the initiative.

Shi Lang had closed the distance between them, if she kept holding on to the spear, it will not be of any use, and to take out the knife, the time was not enough. Shi Lang had no intention of giving her any room. The blade in his hand was shining with a cold glint, just like his eyes. For a blink, Ameris could really see the knife stabbing through her abdomen.

All of a sudden, she shouted, “Scutum.”

An icy blue glow radiated from her body and formed a sphere around her. The stabbing attack bounced off the sphere, however, despite the surprise, Shi Lang had no idea to stop. He rushed to the side, picked up his spear, and after holding it from the end, he swung it around.

The Terran camp was surprised, but they did not let it overwhelm them. Turned out Neomonians were not only similar in body structure but also, in terms of abilities. This news must be sent back home.

Shi Lang used the spear, like an extended mace, and hit the icy blue spear with a blunt side. The impact was distributed in form of ripples. Shi Lang did not stop, he kept on swinging his spear to hit the sphere repeatedly. What he wanted to do was to find out the limitations of this sphere.

Abilities could only be used for some time without paying a heavy price. The people in the training field stood stunned at this. Ameris waited for the boy to retract his spear after ten hits, and just when he did, she quickly removed the spear and rushed towards him with a knife in her hand. However, Shi Lang had not thrown away his knife, he only put it back.

At this moment, he drew the knife from the back and decisively threw it at Ameris. The lady only used her own knife to meet the incoming projectile. Shi Lang had aimed at her eyes, as soon as she deflected the knife, she saw the spear incoming at her with an even higher speed.

She turned to the side, and took her eyes off of Shi Lang, the youngster used this opportunity and rushed to her side. Grabbed her neck, and locked her thighs. She was being choked. Rosa said, “Enough.”

Shi Lang woke up. He has entered the war mode. His mind was too engrossed with this battle that he forgot, that he did not need to kill someone. This was the first time something like this happened to him. He loosened his grip and stood up from the ground. He also helped Ameris to get up and bowed to her as he said, “I apologize for the transgressions, Captain.”

Ameris shook her head and said, “I got to learn from you, Shusha Ace. Thank you for going easy on me. If you were given a set of hot weapons, I might have been dead by now.”

Shi Lang shook his head and said, “I am not preficient with hot weapons.”

He bowed and moved back to his team. Putting aside everything, Shi Lang was now worried for his state of mind. He needed to recover his previous self. He needed to meditate. Amelia noticed his peculiarity and asked, “Is something bothering you?”

Shi Lang said after taking a deep breath, “Dig out what was that sphere, I will go back to meditate, my mind just now…”

Amelia pecked his cheek and said, “I know, you entered the state of war. Go rest, you need to control it.”

Shi Lang nodded and went back to the palace with a guard escorting him. It was not that the guy might forget his way, but that he might wander into someplace he was not supposed to. Shi Lang did not bother and came back to the room he was at.

He crossed his legs and sat down to meditate.

…

Outside in the training field, the girls were collecting the bet stakes, and Rosa asked, Ameris, “I have seen some of the Terran people having the ability to shield them, but yours was better compared to them.”

Ameris shook her head and said, “Neomonians can only use this ability when they sense grave danger.”

Rosa nodded. However, she did not believe it. That said the people collected the stakes and after dividing the booty, they all went back to their own rooms. Rosa transmitted what she found from Ameris to Shi Lang on his communicator. While the battles came to an end.

The plan to track down the palace had kicked in.
