Ace Of Terrans

232 End Scene.

Shi Lang had taken his sweet time and when the Adjudicator was done speaking, he placed a spirit stone inside the slot of the console beside his chair. The whole warship was arranged in a way that could act like spirit formation channels. Every ship had one spirit stone in the controller cabin, and when the required number is achieved, the spirit stones resonate on their own.

The spirit energy did not flow in the space, but the spirit stones could make that possible. As soon as the final piece fell into the place, the formation activated. A dim glowing cover of spiritual energy appeared in front of the Terran Fleet. The phaser beams fired by the Zergs were already onto them. These beams moved at the speed of light and collided with the shield in a blink.

However, the impact that everyone feared did not appear. The beams were negated. Shi Lang smiled inside the cabin and said, "Prong one, activate."

The operator nodded and relayed the command to the tug miner ships. They had hundreds of tug mining ships and they all carried at least one asteroid hooked to their lines. When they received the command, they all dived towards the zerg fleet with a gap of a few seconds to avoid collisions. This maneuver was the only thing they had practiced during the past few days. Just when the ships were about to reach the radar range, they will pull up and quickly release the asteroid tied to their ships.

This maneuver was going to be the first attack against the unruly zergs, they attacked before the adjudicators could give the go signal, and thus the Federal Fleet had complete freedom to retaliate in kind.

...

In the monitoring vessel, the subordinates reported to Adjudicator Joru about the actions taken by the Federal Fleet. The two people were surprised, but they did not know what good was hurling rocks at people. However, they were in for a shock.

...

Shi Lang said, "Initiate Second Prong."

The operator relayed the order and then reported the status back to Shi Lang. The asteroids flew through the void, and the zerg ships made adjustments and re-positioned themselves to avoid the rock showers, however, their efforts were wasted.

The fighter ships placed below the Zerg fleet all took action and shot the asteroids, making them explode and the debris turned into stellar artillery. The speed of the flying space rocks was higher than the sound. At this speed, these rocks were capable of damaging the Spaceships. And even if it was not significant, it will surely impact the smart system on the ships.

The zergs will not take the hits standing and will try to maneuver. However, the moment the fire of the Zerg fleet was disrupted. Shi Lang commanded, "Third Prong activate."

The third step was to use complete firepower and take down as many warships of the enemy as they could. To increase the output, they focused on one ship at a time. The entire fleet targeted the same warship, and then they all shot at it at the same time.

The beams flew and they all landed on the warship, the impact was so high that the ships were destroyed to shreds. This continued and the Federal Fleet began to take the lead. The Zergs were left with no option. The fighter ships below aimed at the engines of the Zerg fleet ships, so they were unable to move. However, this was only for the ships that were targeted.

Shi Lang said, "They will put up the last fight, do not give them the chance, concentrate fire on all the ships charging toward us. Also, have the fighters kill their engines."

The fleet followed his command and they found that some of the zerg fleets were indeed breaking apart from their formation and they were charging at them. The concentrated fire diffused the mutual destruction plan.

What was even more, they could not afford to let these stowaways collide with their ships, the spiritual shield will not hold. In reality, the spiritual shield was backed up by the phaser shield and that was why they all survived the onslaught of zerg attacks with no damage. Otherwise, they would have lost a few percent of their attack capabilities.

Shi Lang watched all the things happening with a peaceful expression. He watched the destruction and when the Zerg fleet was almost finished, he said, "Stop attacks, send in the mechs and puppets. No prisoners, and OB-One, have the puppets salvage all they can."

OB-One nodded and said, "Yes sire."

The command was passed and the war was coming to its finale. Amelia asked, "Shall we report to the Parliament?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "It is a task for the Shashi, you all focus on other things. Our term was to completely eradicate the Zergs. I need to find their forces and a way to get through the planetary defenses. This is just the beginning. The sectors in their territory are yet to be conquered and settled."

Hayley and Amelia cast a strange gaze on Shi Lang. The young man was perceptive enough and said, "You may think that I have turned into a cold-blooded conqueror, but that is not the case. The Neomons and the Arcadians have entered into an alliance with the Federation. However, the Zergs are not like this, they treat us like an item of food, and they cannot be trusted. Thus, it is better we take their resources and put them to good use.

I am not a hypocrite, if you criticize this as genocide, then I agree with you. It is a genocide, and I have to do this for the safety of all those back home."

The girls realized that Shi Lang was not doing this for power, he was just doing what was necessary. They calmed down and began to act on the commands quickly. Shi Lang said, "Deputy General Sikar, please make sure that the ground troops are lifted and sent back to base. They need to refresh for the upcoming battles. We will face some strong resistance."

Sikar nodded and said, "I will do it, sir."

...

Adjudicator Karde sighed as he looked at the mechs from the Federation killing the Zergs. He did not wish for things to arrive at this point. Adjudicator Joru said, "You are thinking too much. They were the ones to provoke this hatred from the federation. The three planets in Zerg territory were originally Federation space, however, the Zergs invaded unannounced and slaughtered everyone there. So, this is only justified. The Council cannot get away with partiality you know that very well."

Karde nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "I only wish that Jacuuba can handle this shock. He will be enraged after this news gets to the Council."

Joru nodded and said, "Jacuuba is strong, but that was in the past, he pressurized the council in the name of alliance with the scavengers, this is not going to happen anymore. The Federation will become an example for different civilizations and they will seek a diplomatic connection with them, what for? The weaponry and tactics they displayed today.

Destroying one civilization, the federation has won themselves a golden ticket for the higher chair in the council. This is business and oversight of a true leader."

Karde shook his head and said, "I do not think they thought that deep into the future, however, I have to say that this young general of the Terrans is not a regular card you can play. He is an Ace, that can turn the game in the favor of the Federation anytime. Also, I have some news for you."

Joru asked, "What is it?"

"The team that led the spike charge against the Zergs in the ground battle was led by this young general in person.", as soon as Karde said this, Joru could not hold his temper anymore, and cussed in his native tongue.

Joru sighed after regaining his composure and said, "We can offer him an honorary seat at the Strike Force. What do you think? This will be beneficial for them, and the purpose of the Strike force is not just to fight for the territory, but for the galaxy."

Karde nodded and said, "We shall present this matter to the high table, then we will see."

Joru nodded and agreed with this.

...

In the wide starry sea, a planet was floating among the countless stars, if anyone was to look closely, they will find that this planet was not a regular mass of dirt and water, but it was a ball of metal. This planet was a man-made marvel, the headquarter of the Galactic Council, Primus.

On this planet, inside a luxury room sat a few figures, they all looked like Zergs. However, they had a few distinct features, like some had spikes for eyebrows while some had iron-like scales, while some had big eyes with vertical slits. They were looking at the screen, which was the war status board.

At any given time, hundreds of territorial battles were going around the galaxy. The war status board updated, and a green lizard-like creature stood up.

A fellow lizard-like entity asked, "Jacuuba, this is not the end."

Jacuuba glared at the entity and said, "Say that when your home forces face defeat." then he roared and shouted, "I will tear this Terran bastard."

On the war status board, Shi Lang's name as the Winning general was flashing next to the war status between The Federation and the Zergs.
