The federal team landed on the ground and they all rushed away from the spot. As they were running, Shi Lang commanded, “Ryan, deploy detection probes. James set up sensory formations.”
In the past days, they had all received various sorts of training in the simulation realm, James had shown good aptitude in the subject of array formation. Thus, he learned how to cast spirit arrays. After hearing the command, the two people broke away from the team and began to execute the orders.
Ryan was deploying detection probes, a device that looked like metal beads, as big as a ball bearing. He was dropping them every fifty meters while running in a circle. Shi Lang and all have decided to cover up an area of two kilometers.
The two people were doing just that. Although compared to Ryan, James was moving at a much slower pace, his task was delicate as well.
He was carving circles and patterns on the trees. Then he would drill out the center of the circle, and insert a tiny spirit stone inside it. Spirit stones were the crystallized spiritual energy, so the stone could be divided and it will still retain the energy inside it.
James carved the formations and Shi Lang led the team to the center of their decided area. While they were in the air, he had commanded the computer in his suit to highlight two kilometers and to notify him when they arrive at the mid-point.
He did not select the area at the point of deployment because they were at the border of the zone. They could not move around much in those shallow trees. The system beeped and they all stopped abruptly. The performance of the federal team was akin to a bot unit. They were not wasting a single moment.
…
Outside the arena, the people were still wondering how this team was so fast and decisive, they even took down a team in mid-air. A few people had even tagged the federal team as the underdogs. They all searched for details of this team quickly.
The attitude of the federal team, to be compassionate towards their opponents was a rarely witnessed one, and thus they become even more famous. The tech team and the administrators were watching the proceeding fight in the gathering hall, with indifferent faces.
They did not pay attention to the news circulating outside but focused on their team. Suddenly, a boy walked over, Jane looked at the boy and asked, “Anything I can help you with?”
She was using the galactic translator and the boy was surprised. He regained his composure as the rest of the team slowly focused their gazes on him, and the boy asked, “Can I take a picture with you all?”

The federal team was surprised and they scrutinized the boy deeply. Their actions made the boy shiver and think that he might have offended them, and just as he was about to apologize, he heard a calm and gentle voice, “Can you tell us, why you wish to click a picture with us?”
The boy was dressed in the uniform of the galactic council staff and they could tell that he was one of the people responsible for little things here. He nodded and said with a stammer, “Sir… that you might not know, but your team is very popular and I wanted to click a picture with you all so that I can show it to my friends.”
Matthews opened his eyes wide and asked, “We are popular? Who says so?”
The boy found that these fierce people were not actually fierce, so he turned his communicator to public mode and showed them the news feed. It was filled with the news of the federal team. The ten people felt very flattered by this, but it was just a fleeting moment. Jane said, “Calm down, do not falter.”
Lucas gazed at her, and asked, “Wife, do you not like vanity anymore?”
Jane rolled her eyes and said, “I do, but this amount is not going to satisfy my greed for it. Now, take a picture, and go back to the rooms, Lang will be pissed if we put up airs.”
The team nodded, clicked the picture with the boy, and then left the place quickly, they really did not want to attract attention and they could watch the battle telecast inside their rooms.
The technical teams were needed for the mecha rounds and repair work, while they could also act like substitutes in the battles. As for the administrators, they were the trumps to save lives in the initial rounds.
…
Shi Lang and the team stood in the center of the marked area and James and Ryan regrouped with them. The young general said, “Four sentries, two patrols, and one rapid response team. Move.”
The words were concise and the team acted quickly. The four big trees became the nests for James, Olivia, Krute, and Martha.
Steel teamed up with Sophia for patrol, the second team was Jack and Carlos. Ryan was left with Shi Lang. The former was feeling very excited to have a chance to fight side by side with his leader. However, more than joy, he was anxious, because Shi Lang was a tank and he was a pistol.
They all were moving at regular intervals to avoid getting disqualified for breaking rules. After an hour Shi Lang said, “I will go out.”
This shocked the whole team. They could not understand why the general passed such a command. Shi Lang said, “I am just getting too bored.”
The rest of the team was rendered speechless. Ryan said, “If only we knew how the people are proceeding outside.”
The rest of the team nodded, and suddenly, Martha said, “Boss, movement spotted, five men team, rushing in quickly, they have heavy weapons, will break through the sensory range in two minutes.”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “Rest stay the same, Ryan on me.”
Ryan replied, “Hoorah.”
…
Five people were rushing towards the zone, and they could be heard talking with each other, “That team is camping here, if not for the thermal scans we would have missed them.”
Another person said, “They are six, and we are five. They outnumber us.”
“It is just one more than us, do not doubt yourself. We are about to reach them, get ready.”, said the man in the lead.
Suddenly, the group came to a stop, in front of them stood two men with suits and a visor on their faces. The leader did not waste time and said, “Fire.”
The motive was simple, they would kill the enemy without wasting any time, what were these two thinking about coming over to intercept them? This team had deployed sky drones, to detect the enemy. They thought a group of six people was camping there, but they could not see the snipers through the illusion array’s
It can be said that the body will still emit heat, but with a layer of spirit energy wrapping around them, it could bypass the clutches of technology.
The team raised their guns and fired phaser beams at the two in front of them, but Shi Lang and Ryan both vanished from their sights. However, the phaser beams were still fired as this team could still manage to track the activity of the two.
As they moved at high-speed, Shi Lang and Ryan left some signs on the ground and that gave this group a chance to keep up. Well, they were good, but if they knew that the signs were left there deliberately to attract their attention, what would they do? In the meantime, the snipers had all taken position and their muzzles were aiming at four different men from the enemy team.
Shi Lang was not a fool to go and take down the five people alone even if he could, that would attract too much attention, so he suppressed his excitement and played bait with Ryan.
As the two people moved behind the group of five people, and the enemy exposed their backs to the snipers, Shi Lang said, “Fire.”
They had expected this team to have taken some precaution against sneak attacks, but they had overestimated the enemy. The four shots hit the targets cleanly, and the captain was stunned, which caused him to lag for a moment. He wanted to roll down on the ground, but just when he jumped, and bent his body, a phaser beam went through his head.
Shi Lang fired the final shot. He did not show compassion to this group, they had targeted them with live fire, and he was not a fool to play a goody two shoes. He already knew that his previous mercy made the people think they were innocent, well, time to break the norms.
At this moment, a message sounded in the comms, “Parameter breach on the western side.”
Shi Lang replied, “All teams defend, we will flank. Ryan lets go.”
