Ace Of Terrans-Chapter 370 Mission Details.
The ship wrapped through time and space and appeared in space, Shi Lang held his head and said, "What the hell did they come up with to make this engine? It kicks more than a wrap for the first time and to think I counted myself as strong."
Sonic was sprawled on the table and said, "Boss, can we return this thing to them and use ours?"
Shi Lang stood up from the captain's chair and took deep breaths as he said, "I do not want to die on duty. Your sister-in-law is still waiting for me to come back."
The people chuckled a bit and they gradually recovered from the shock of the hyperwrap jump. Shi Lang looked at the fainted Crystal Balley and said, "Jill, wake her up and tell her to run her cultivation sutra to get over the fatigue."
The officer nodded and woke up Crystal. The young snow fox was smart and quickly followed the instructions. Shi Lang said, "Sparrow, organize the details in the meeting room, and call everyone over."
The people of the team were sent to different areas of the ship to monitor them for any faults. The team was all attentive and they were all qualified engineers. Given that the tech of this ship was slightly different they all had been reading the manuals and with their hyper-intelligent brain, they could now manage this heap of metal on their own. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
Five minutes later, the entire ace division was inside the so-called meeting room. They all gathered and Shi Lang said, "Sparrow, start."
Before saying this he did not forget to gaze at Crystal, who was sitting behind Jill. Sparrow nodded and said, "The mission goal is to cease conflict between the two parties. The location is called planet Cega. The conflicted parties identify as the ruling party and the majority of civilians, Cigs, while the other party is called Drigs.
The Cigs are people with humanoid physiques and they all have long ears and blue eyes, born with extraordinary gene variation, they can see up to two kilometers. The drigs are ninety percent similar to Cigs in anatomy but they have a variation. This is caused by a natural gene evolution phenomenon which the Cigs have denied accepting and outcasted these people upon discovery.
The variations could be ranging from sensory enhancement or a visible physical trait, like shorter eats and even eye color other than blue is seen as a variation. The lives of these variants are determined as soon as they are discovered. The Cigs believe in mercy so they provide minimal food and clothes but that is all. The drigs are destined to live a life where they do not have any right to education, medical treatments, or shelter inside the cities ruled by Cigs.
A few years ago the conflict escalated, and a leader from the Cigs violated a variant camp woman. He said that since they had no use, they could be at least of some pleasure. That man was executed publically and all his misdeeds were published publically, but since the facts were bought out by the variant group, the people of the planet did not pay it much mind.
Currently, the Drigs have one major stronghold, they captured the city and killed every Cig that did not surrender, however, women and children were spared. The majority of Variants wished to kill those captives too, but the leader suggested that they try and work together to find a way to co-exist in harmony."
Jill raised a hand, "Who is this leader? He seems to be quite a figure as he is able to manage to keep things down to this point. Also, the cigs are too proud of this report."
The rest of the people nodded, and Sparrow continued, "The leader of the variants is called Salve, well as you said, Captain, the variants are the victims here, but the strike force allowed us to take them down, I have no idea what they were thinking."
Everyone turned their eyes to look at Shi Lang and the man seemed to be not interested in this meeting as he leaned back with his eyes closed.
Crystal frowned and whispered, "Humph, rude creature."
Jill smirked and just then Shi Lang said, "The fact that the variants have control over a weapon of mass destruction is the reason they have been cleared to be taken down. In the entire Cega planet, the number of Variants is concentrated in just one city while the cigs are spread all over.
Do you all think that the goodness of a few hundred thousand out outweighs the lives of a million? Foolish, as long as the Cigs survive they have a chance to grow better. They have followed mercy and allowed the variants to live. Yes, there are a few bad fish in the pond, but what if the majority of opinion is suppressed by the government? After all, leadership thrives on the conflicts of the masses.
Ajax, get me the Cig leadership and have them arrange for a public meeting. At the same time, Jill, Sonic, and Raz, take Crystal Balley with you, meet with the Variant leader, and try to ask him for peace pacts, if he plays over smart, Crystal will charm him and then you will all take possession of the weapon in his possession.
Are you all clear on your instructions?"
The team replied, "Yes Commander."
Shi Lang nodded and said, "Prepare to enter the atmosphere and land. I do not plan to waste much time on this silly thing. Also, do not forget to check for spiritual energy or any herbs that may be helpful."
The team sprung up into action but Crystal kept sitting in her seat. She clenched her fists and asked, "Why must I charm that guy? Why? Am I some tool?"
Shi Lang looked at her and so did the others who was about to leave and the young general said, "When you put on a uniform, you are a tool. So am I, however, how you put yourself to use is what makes the difference. You do not seem to understand that your simple charm might save the lives of those thousands of variants.
The Cigs, humph, I know very well how to topple the governments and make them walk the right path."
Crystal looked at Shi Lang and asked, "What if the weapon falls into the hands of the Cigs? Will they not be able to use it to kill the variants?" 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
Shi Lang shook his head and said, "The weapon of mass destruction was the reason this chaos went so deep, it will be destroyed. Now, I have had enough of a spoon feeding session. Get your self to work or I will put you in an ejection pod and leave you to explore the space. You can ask these guys, I will actually do it."
Crystal shivered and ran out of the room with amnesty to follow Jill while cursing Shi Lang in her heart. The girl did not really understand how Shi Lang was so confident and level-headed in such a confusing situation. She caught up with Jill and asked, "Ummm."
While she was confused about what to address Jill with the lady smiled and said, "You can call me big sis Jill like all these losers."
Crystal blushed slightly and asked, "Big Sister Jill, why do you call him commander?"
Jill replied, "He is not the captain of our team, he is the commander. We were not originally this strong, he was the one who scouted us, and made us what we are today. He is like a teacher and a big brother to us."
Sonic chuckled and said, "Yes, he can be sadistic while training us, but he takes care of us. We have been through life and death on a lot of missions, but never did he leave any of us behind. You might think that we are all fawning over him a bit too much. But let me ask you, have you seen a man who destroyed an entire race for the one he loved?
Or a man who decided to step down from the peak of the mountain for the sake of his loved one?"
Crystal was surprised, and Raz said, "Our commander was the first general of the entire empire, yet he decided to step down and came here because of a conflict. Although he said that it was because he wanted to search for a place that could bring out more of his strength, but the truth is that he was too strong for that place and when you leave people behind they get wary of you. He did not want that. So, he is worth idolizing."
Crystal gulped and asked, "I..."
Jill patted her head and said, "Do not worry kid, you will get to know him better in the future. Now we have a job, try not to mess up or I will have to spank you."
The team integrated Crystal within themselves and took off to deal with the mission. The objective was to stop a war from erupting.
