Amelia opened her eyes and she stood up from the ground, just when her nose was flooded with the smell of filthy impurities, Shi Lang waved his hand, and the sticky things were all flunked away. Amelia said, “My body feels so light all of a sudden.”
Shi Lang only smiled and said, “Try to control that warm feeling, concentrate the energy inside your foot and then stomp the floor.”
Amelia nodded and then she focused the energy on the sole of her foot, and then she stomped on the ground. The rocky surface under the feet was instantly filled with cracks, Shi Lang said, “What do you feel?”
Amelia gawked at him and asked, “How is thispared to your strength?”
Shi Lang smiled and said, “One-tenth.”
The next moment, he stomped and a crater with a radius of five meters appeared. The boy said, “This is a conservative effort.”
Amelia took a deep breath and said, “Lang, I want to be stronger. How do I?”
Shi Lang said, “That warm current, absorb that as much as you can, however, do not be too eager to improve, there is a significant risk of ending up crippled if you were too pushy with yourself.”
Amelia nodded and said, “What about others?”
Shi Lang said, “I will teach them after you have gotten used to this.”
Amelia nodded and said, “As you say, how about we go back to the camp, the others might get worried.”
Shi Lang nodded and then he carried the girl in a princess embrace and the two vanished from the spot. On the way back to the camp, Amelia asked, “Tell me, can you fly?”
Shi Lang was surprised at first but then after recalling the old life, he said, “Yes, one day in the future.”
Amelia was surprised by how definitive the statement was but she did not say anything to him. The people arrived back at the camp and Shi Lang spotted the ck pce was reced by a white and blue pce. The boy nodded and said, “She has good taste.”
He put Amelia down and said, “You should go and warm up with the spirit energy, I will go and check on the others.”
Amelia nodded and entered the camp as Shi Lang made his way to the biggest tent at the campsite. He spotted two Arcadian soldiers standing at the entrance and they were looking at the masked figure with a strong sense of vignce. Shi Lang said, “Your Excellency, may I enter?”
“Oh, finally someone decided toe out and see me. I thought you have forgotten me. Come in.”, said the girl, and Shi Lang walked inside the tent.
He found that General Rui was also sitting beside the young girl. Shi Lang nodded to him and came to stand beside the little girl who was profusely working on a holp. Shi Lang asked, “What are you doing?”
The girl said, “Checking up if any of the targets seeded in fleeing.”
Shi Lang shook his head and said, “You are skillful but not efficient. Design an algorithm that will check whether the target has been shot dead or not.”
Cara raised her head and asked, “How?”
The boy said, “Your people carry a body cam?”
Cara nodded and Shi Lang said, “General Rui, if you can, please equip the people with equipment that can scan for life signs as well. After the soldier has taken a hit on the target then have them scan the person with life scanners. The target will have no sign of life and then the algorithm will eliminate the person from the live target files.”
General Rui nodded and said, “Do not worry, they all use the life scanner already.”
Cara nodded and said, “You sure have a lot of experience in this.”
Shi Lang did not reply but asked, “What have you done to make sure that these hits leave a direct impact on the hearts of the people and that the future officials do not make the same mistake?”
Cara said, “Ummm, I do not know, but killing them is not enough?”
Shi Lang shook his head. He said, “Let me takemand?”
The girl thought and said, “Well, you are my aid, so I can tell you to deal with a few things on my behalf. Come help me.”
Shi Lang looked at the other side and found Rosa looking at him. He said, “Ry amand to all the operators outside. As soon as they have the target in sight, they must record the scene and leave nothing out. Also, tell them all to move now. Does not matter where they are, I want every operator to have the visual on their targets.”
Rosa nodded and began to ry themand, she was using an ount of General Rui. After five minutes she said, “Themand is out, they are moving.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “I want you to tell them to take down the targets within ten minutes after themand is passed.”
Rosa raised her head and asked, “What do you intend on doing?”
Shi Lang said, “Waves of blood to wash away the sins. After the flood recedes, we will have a clean ground toy a firm foundation.”
General Rui could tell what Shi Lang intended to do. Rosa nodded and then themand was passed. Shi Lang found that the efficiency of the troops outside was good and they all finished the tasks just as they were told.
Shi Lang said, “Contact with the biggest media channel of the empire.”
General Rui opened his eyes wide. He did not know what to say. Rosa said, “Do you intend to telecast the videos?”
Shi Lang nodded and after he cast a gaze at the little girl, he said, “I want the empire to know, that this girl will not let them down.”
Rosa gulped and was about to hook up with the guys from the media when the general spoke up, “We have a broadcasting room for the people from the imperial pce to contact the empire, and it includes every device avable.”
Shi Lang raised his eyebrow and said, “You all surely are sneaky rats.”
He turned to look at Cara and said, “Cara, you need to dress up and tell the world your story and after that…” he leaned in and whispered something in her ears. The people could not figure out if it was a good thing or a bad one as the girl was shocked at first and then smiling.
Cara delegated all the work to Rosa and General Rui and then she walked out of the camp. The biggest unit was dedicated to working. General Rui asked, “What do you intend to do?”
Shi Lang said, “To change the empire as you and others have known it. Only when you change the views will you have a better future.”
General Rui raised his eyebrow and asked, “How do you conclude that our ways are wed? Not every culture is the same as the other.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “I agree, but do you think a culture where women are suppressed and looked at as an object to satisfy the lust of a man is a good culture? If one day somedy picked up a knife and castrated a man, do you know what will happen? The empire will have a sexual civil war and then your culture wille to an end.”
His crude remark made no difference to Rosa, she was used to his absurdness but the general was ashamed, he was gnawing his teeth, however, when he thought about it with some focus, he found that what Shi Lang said was actually possible. He could not help but gulp a mouthful of saliva with some curses mixed with it. (I tell you it is a bitter blend)
After a few minutes, Cara came back inside the unit and she was dressed in a grey and gold dress. The dress was designed with nanotechnology. Shi Lang looked at her and smiled behind his mask. The girl had the demeanor of an empress.
She bowed to Shi Lang like a noble and the boy returned the gesture. He said, “The videos have beenpiled and they have been put together into a string. Now you only need to deliver it.”
The girl nodded and General Rui asked a technician toe over and have them connect to the system called the Decree.
It only took five minutes toplete the setup and Cara was connected to every device in the empire. The technician nodded to her and Cara said, “Hello citizens of Arcadia. I am your empress Cara Mia. I know that all of you must be thinking of that ugly tyrant with his big crown as your ruler but unfortunately, my biological father, my half brothers with the imperial family, all have been executed. Arcadia no longer has a royal family, however, you have a change.
That change is me.”
The people on the other side became curious and they were watching the broadcast with even more scrutiny.
