The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 52: purchasing their first battle arts

The entrance to the armory was just like the one in their military training base. A middle-aged soldier sat at the counter facing them, he is the armory keeper. They recognized him; he was one of the high-grade soldiers that the captain introduced to them.

Good morning Sergeant Morris, they greeted. We want to check out the armory, Clark added.

Good morning Sergeants, of course you can check it out, he said with a smile after returning the greeting.

Just fill in your names here and the time you came, when you are going out fill in the time also.

Ok, thanks, Clark replied as they quickly filled in their names before entering the armory.

The armory still fascinated Clark on entering despite this not being his first time entering an armory. This armory was clearly more advanced than the one in their military training base. The countless weapons on display were simply mind blowing.

None of the countless weapons and gadgets caught their eye before Clark saw an exotic shield. HIs eyes lit up as he went closer while announcing his discovery to both Leo and Benny. They both quickly came as they laid their eyes on the normal looking bracelet.

Exotic shield was written on top of it, gadgets can be made in many different forms, this shield was made in the form of a bracelet. After wearing it, in a fight you can simply whisper shield and it will materialize in your hand just like a real shield but it is energy powered.

The price was set at 30,000 Spartan credits, Leo said he wanted one so Clark bought for myself and his friend. Benny also bought one, as a high-grade soldier he could not be completely penniless. They continued forward after taking it, they didnt find any other thing of interest so they moved directly to the battle arts section. The other things on display were either too expensive to make them loosen their pockets or too high-end for soldiers of their rank.

They were only allowed here in the battle arts section because they are high-grade soldiers, normal soldiers are restricted from entering here.

There they saw a lot of battle arts on display, battle arts are confidential and strategic resources of a country so they are not allowed to be revealed to the public. Every country has specialists who are dedicated to researching new battle arts as they are very essential to a high-grade soldier. The battle arts are not written in books, they are kept as software and are transferred directly to your implant after purchase.

A soldier is restricted from sending a purchased battle art to another person, not even to another soldier. Clark picked The bullet encyclopedia directly as he already had a batch of stored bullets for the battle art, not only that he liked its versatility and most especially you look cool when using it. Leo picked The frenzied maneuver, this was one of the most commonly used battle arts preferred by melee fighters. Benny picked The deads echo; it was a battle art preferred by ranged specialists as he was one.

After selecting, the 3 Sergeants picked the fingernail sized device as they finally went back to the counter. Battle arts were classified as high-grade military resources, the battle art they choose all cost 100,000 credits or 80,000 military achievement points for one.

Benny asked for a loan from Clark as he didnt have the required credits nor money, Clark borrowed him the money and he promised to pay back. Clark could have given him the money for free as a gift but they actually only knew each other for less than 3 days, he was not a charity center.

They returned to the counter where sergeant Morris processed the devices and sent the information to their implants. After paying they left in high spirits.

Leo and Clark wore the jean trousers, the polo shirt and shoes that Clark bought for the both of them. They looked just like brothers as the odd one Benny trailed behind them. They arrived at the park as Clark finally saw his car up close for the first time.

The car was simply a work of perfection, it was currently black in color but a single button or voice order from Clark can change its color. It took the shape of a sports car but he could also decide to change its shape with just a voice order. It had a key but was just for formality as he could open it with just his voice. Open, Clark ordered as the door immediately slid open.

The car had an A.I who Clark already met through his implant; it could remotely control the car on my orders. The A.I that followed the car was a highly programmed and optimized one, it is an A.I created from peak Spartan technology. Its virtual defense and a lot of its other abilities are close to the cream of the top in the whole Sparta republic.

Good morning master, the A.I greeted sweetly as Clark configured its sound to be like that of an adorable little girl.

Yeah, good morning lily. Clark greeted with a smile as he quickly entered the car, his friends also entered as they admired the interior of the car. He also changed its name to lily as Lilys services back at the hotel during his training was really superb.

Zoom!! Clark started the car as he drove out of the military compound. A lot of soldiers recognized the car as they stared at it with admiration, some with jealousy and others with envy. Clark didnt give a damn about others opinion as he rode out driving straight to the highway. He couldve commanded the A.I to drive but no, he wanted to feel the joy of cruising in his own car on the highway.

Vatican City was pretty far from Delhi city but it suited him better. Zoom!! Clark drove along the highway with speed as he overtook other vehicles swiftly and precisely. As a soldier he was naturally taught on driving skills in case he was in a situation that needs it.

As Clark drove with speed a song from a famous artiste played in the background. Leo and Benny trusted his driving skills so they relaxed despite the speed he was moving out, and it was not like anything would even happen to them if there was an accident, the cars armor was simply a cheat.

Clark drove for over 5 hours before they finally reached Vatican City. He smiled in nostalgia as the familiar looking bridge greeted his sight.

Im home man, he yelled inwardly as he reduced his speed after reaching the crowded city.
