Ace Of Terrans

A new General asked, “Sir, I have heard that you intend to let the secret divisions work side by side with each other. I wonder what that is about.”

This statement made everyone perk up their ears. Shi Lang said, “General Tao, the matter is true. I do want to place both the frontier forces and secret divisions together. The reason is that the secret divisions have too many people who are not working but just training most of the time. Without actual combat, the training will never bear fruit. You all understand that. Right?”

The people around the table nodded. Shi Lang said, “Inside the frontier forces, we have the business division and administrators and technology. The secret division is only made to keep an eye out on all of us and they work independently. What I intend to do is to let a part of secret divisions, transfer to the frontier forces, and battle divisions.

You must all be aware of the calamity we faced against the Arcadians just a few months ago. Do you think it is wise to depend on the allies for a prolonged time? Since we have the resources, then why not assimilate and increase the pool? The people from Secret Divisions will be just a part of the frontier and will help out during war situations. How about?”

Charlotte raised her hand and said, “General, will the secret divisions really have no other motive when they are incorporated with the frontier forces? I have no personal ill-will against them, after all, the job they have is even more arduous than ours, but the impact of a covert interception will have a great impact on our frontier forces.”

Shi Lang shook his head and said, “The frontier forces always report their dark stuff to the secret divisions, so what else are you afraid of? There are twelve fleets, and you should be aware of how many people in the fleets are similar to you, dedicated to the Federation completely. The others need to be smacked into order. The new council is fragile, we cannot afford any infighting at the moment.

Do I also need to remind you of the threat possessed by the dark organizations? If a soldier, who supported these dark organizations went crazy in a war situation, who will be able to contain the damage? The frontier forces are already fighting, suddenly they face a two-pronged attack, at that time only secret divisions can help us. Do you think it is wise to seclude the secret divisions and if a need arises, you should wait for them to fly across the space to help you?”

The point was valid. General Charlotte knew that her son-in-law was a troublemaker, so said, “Those in favor of the motion, raise your left hands. Those against the motion of incorporating the secret divisions with the frontier forces, raise your right hands.”

General Charlotte raised her left hand and then the rest of the people followed. They all raised their left hands. Rather than the risk of letting the council and the fleets fall in disorder, they all understood that the secret division was a better whip to maintain order and avoid the crisis. At the said, Shi Lang said, “The procedure will be left for Commander Silence and her counterparts in the secret divisions. You all can talk to each other about how many people you can accommodate. Do thinks in a smooth fashion, being slower can still be tolerated.”

The council nodded, and the topics shifted, they discussed a lot of things, and then the generals took off to their respective fleets. They had to subdue the deputies. Shi Lang had already told them about the cultivation. They all left and so did Shi Lang. He was worried about the discoveries made by the people moving the spirit vines.

The ship moved through space at a high speed. Shi Lang spent all the time cultivating and meditating inside the hibernation pod. When the ship arrived at the Frontier Spaceport. Shi Lang did not go back to the base but first decided to take a look at the sealed area. The speed of the vehicle was fast and Hayley was an adept driver.

When the two of them arrived, the border was strictly being guarded by the units. They had even erected fences and watch towers for surveillance. His vehicle entered the parameter and he was received by Jenkins. This young man seemed to have taken charge of this site.

Shi Lang got down and asked, “What did you raise such a mess for?”

Jenkins rolled his eyes and said, “Come along, you will be shocked by the discovery.”

They all came to the central command room established by the unit. This place was half a mile away from the main site, and they had been monitoring the place with all sorts of monitoring equipment. Shi Lang looked at the images being displayed on the screen and he was indeed shocked. He asked, “Did you all carry out a terrestrial scan from the satellites?”

Jenkins frowned and shook his head. Shi Lang said, “Conduct one now. Also, someone get me a battle gear.”

Hayley asked in a hurry, “What do you intend to do?”

“Obviously, I need to explore this place. Do not worry, I have a sense of measure. I will not just walk to my death and serve myself on a platter. Just get me a battle gear and Jenks, get that test conducted.” replied Shi Lang.

A soldier quickly came with standard battle gear and Shi Lang swapped it with his uniform. Jenkins said, “The test has been conducted. It does not show anything out of ordinary.”

Shi Lang nodded and put on the helmet. He said, “I am going inside then. You guys will watch the door.”

Jenkins nodded and Hayley said, “You will have to answer a lot of people when you come back, so make sure that you are alive.”

Shi Lang did not listen to them and had already rushed out of the command center. The two people could only focus on monitoring the place with screens.

Shi Lang came to the site and found a deep hole in front of him. The hole was ten meters wide in radius. The young man thought the removal of the root, let this big pit surface and the soil was loosened up.

He took out a phosphorous tube, cracked it, gave it a good shake, and let it fall in the pit. His line of sight followed the tube and saw the light stop after five hundred meters. Shi Lang said, “This is five hundred meters deep. I am going inside.”

Jenkins said, “Godspeed.”

Shi Lang nodded and began to climb down using the nanobot modification on his suit. As he descended the video of the pit walls was being fed to the command centers, Jenkins quickly had all the technicians work on the feed and stop plausible hacking from the envoys of the Galactic Council. They did not trust their guests.

When Shi Lang reached the bottom of the pit. He was using his special ability to sense everything around himself. But the darkness made him a little uncomfortable. He switched on the lights of his suit and also the cameras. He said, “Are you receiving all this?”

Jenkins replied in his earpiece, “Crystal.”

Shi Lang was standing inside a tunnel, the tunnel walls looked like they were laser cut. The young man said, “Could this place be a ruin left by the previous inhabitants of this planet?”

Jenkins said, “I have no idea, are you sure you want to continue going in deeper? We have no prior info you know?”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Jenks, I never knew you were a mom at heart. Even my own mother might not nag me like this.”

Jenkins was surprised by this retort. The juniors all were trying hard to suppress the laughter. Hayley said, “Not everyone can be the careless Daredevil like you right, General?”

“Oh, my Adjutant is a dad, I see, you to make a good match.”, teased Shi Lang. He had no care about what the juniors heard.

He was doing this to keep himself calm inside the dark tunnel. Suddenly, he stopped. In front of him stood a stone door. As high as twenty meters. Shi Lang asked, “Well, seems like we have found some sort of architectural structure. I just hope this place is not filled with dead bodies or zombies.”

Jenkins said, “Have you read too many novels these days?”

The people chuckled. Shi Lang said, “You as a cultivator can say such a thing. I have no idea what to expect from you anymore. Can you send in some light? I cannot see the whole of the door, and until I can, I will not approach this thing.”

Jenkins nodded and deployed drones with light packs. Shi Lang set up the bulbs and then he got a full view of the door. When he saw this, he said, “Can you look at the edges, it has vivid inscriptions, some sort of hieroglyphs. I do not know if pushing this door without knowing the proper meaning will be a good thing or not.”

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. Jenkins noticed his movements on the screen and asked, “What the fuck are you doing, you crazy bastard?”
