Alien Relic Hunter

…

One hundred and twenty kilometers south of Mukakh base.

The modified stealth bomber quickly flew over the empty wasteland, gradually approaching its intended destination.

Sitting in the main driving seat was Ze Luo. This girl seemed to have a special interest in the mechanical creations on the Ark. As soon as she heard that someone was needed to fly the plane, she immediately volunteered and raised her hand——

So, before Ke Lan and the others set off, there was the following conversation between Ze Luo and Leighton.

Layton: Uh, Ze Luo, you have a driver's license... No, you have always been a 'black account' before, so you should not be able to get a license. Have you ever flown a plane?

Ze Luo: I've passed.

Layton was slightly startled: Have you flown it before? Is it civilian grade or military grade? How many hours of flight time? In my impression, I have never seen you fly an airplane... Could it be that this guy Ke Lan secretly took you to play? of?

Ze Luo: I have flown both civilian and military-grade aircraft. There are 148 types of aircraft I have tried, with a total flight time of 1,100 hours.

Layton: ????

Zeluo: I have flown the BZ-27 'Owl' stealth bomber you are currently modifying many times. The biggest difference between it and the previous generation BZ-26 is that the number of anti-gravity devices has been increased from eight to ten. Six, even if you make various difficult maneuvers in the air, you don't have to worry about stalling. In addition, its wing spoilers have been changed from computer automatic control to AI/manual dual control, and manual commands The priority is always above AI. Even if the aircraft's computer system is completely scrapped, it can still be controlled. At the same time, it also provides a higher operating limit for excellent pilots.

Layton: You...could you have eaten a BZ-27 pilot and absorbed all the memories in his brain?

Just when Layton was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear, Ke Lan walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, Don't take it seriously. When she said she flew an airplane, she meant flying in a software called Flight Simulator. It's been opened.

'Flight Simulator'? Even the cracked version is enough to send the user to jail for thirty years... There are only a few old-fashioned military aircraft to choose from? Leighton said in shock.

Oh, what I found for him is the version used within the Air Force fleet for virtual training. Basically, all officially installed models can fly. Ke Lan added, Not to mention the BZ-27, the latest BZ- She probably flew over 30.”

Is there such a good thing? Damn, I almost forgot. With your authority, it's not easy to get this thing... Remember to give me a copy next time! Layton shouted, waving the wrench in his hand.

Okay...if my permissions haven't been blocked by then.

Uh, forget it then. Layton hesitated immediately, You have probably become the most wanted criminal in Ark now. Not to mention getting such a highly confidential military program, I'm afraid even your personal The accounts have all been frozen. Ugh... The more I talk about it, the more uncomfortable I feel. My account is gone, and there is still a lot of money in it that has not been spent! If I had known better, I should have turned them into parts and tools. …”

Money is just a number. Chi Hanfeng, who was debugging the circuit board, raised his head and glanced at Layton. If human civilization disappears, then this string of numbers is meaningless.

I know, I know, I'm just saying it casually. Layton said with a grimace, The money in my account can only be regarded as a small amount of money... Oh, Fleet Zero is a pity... Damn, it's so expensive Our new warship was reimbursed in vain, and the reason for reimbursement was not due to normal combat... It hurts me to death.

Speak, do you really want this girl Ze Luo to pilot? Chi Hanfeng said seriously, Although Flight Simulator is indeed a software used in the fleet to train pilots, there is a difference between simulation and actual operation. …”

I think there should be no problem. Ke Lan said, Anyway...even if the plane falls from the sky, with her ability, she can still 'fish' it up.

I almost forgot, you are all stupid. Leighton gave Ke Lan a middle finger and continued working.

…

Facts have proved that Ze Luo can indeed fly a plane, and he can fly it quite well.

She could even accurately estimate the stealth radius of the aircraft, and pass through the detection network composed of drones at a very extreme angle - if General Maginot knew afterwards that there was such a stealth bomber, It silently approached and was less than a hundred kilometers away from the base. It is estimated that the officers in the department responsible for managing the drones would inevitably be scolded.

Ke Lan and the others were not discovered until they were only two kilometers away from the Mukach base. At this distance, they could even directly use large-caliber cannons to straf the base. If this was really a plane If it were an enemy bomber, General Maginot's office would have been razed to the ground by now.

Of course, it is impossible to achieve this level of performance with the performance of the Owl stealth bomber itself. The so-called stealth is nothing more than relying on a special coating that can absorb radar waves to avoid radar detection, coupled with the lead-gray color The camouflage coating is used for visual camouflage... But at this distance and height, anyone with a telescope can see the owl flying in the sky. If you want to avoid being discovered, you can become completely invisible. If it's not enough, you must use a stealth method similar to optical camouflage armor.

In fact, the Owl is indeed invisible, but it relies on a one-way space barrier covered by Ze Luo on the fuselage - they inside the barrier can clearly see all the external scenes, and those outside the barrier People can only see the sky and the thick radiation clouds on the other side of the barrier.

If your ability can be used in this way, why didn't you use it when you passed through those drone networks just now? Hound couldn't help but ask, I thought we were going to be discovered several times, and it made me jump with fear.

I just want to challenge myself. Ze Luo replied calmly, Even if we are discovered by a drone, I will immediately wrap the drone with a space barrier to prevent it from transmitting information back. base.

Although Layton is an idiot, I have to admit that he is right - you are all idiots. Hound sighed, It's a pity that there are idiots opposite us, and idiots are right. Damn it, I don’t know who will have the last laugh.”

Just when the hound was sighing, the piercing siren sounded in the Mukach base. Dozens of armed drones quickly took off, surrounding the Owl. Hundreds of automatic air defense doors The cannon also turned its muzzle at the same time, aiming at the suddenly invisible... ah, no, it was a stealth bomber.

Although the Identification Friend or Foe module on the bomber showed that it was a friendly force, the sudden appearance of a stealth bomber of unknown origin over the base was not a normal thing in itself.

Let me ask, is this way of appearing a little too high-profile? Major General Alexander looked at the messy Mukach base below and whispered, If the other party regards us as enemies...

Don't worry, these bird cannons from Mukah can't penetrate Zeluo's space barrier at all. The hound said confidently, This is the effect we want, to kill the fat man's majesty and let him He knows that we are not easy to mess with at all... In this way, this guy will be more self-aware during the negotiations later.

In the Mukach base below, General Maginot also received the news immediately. Under the escort of several guards, he hurriedly ran into the air defense bunker.

What? Is that bomber's Identification Friend or Foe module a friendly force? Maginot shouted breathlessly. This run almost cost him half his life. Before he could sit down and catch his breath, the adjutant had already installed the command module. The tablet at the terminal was handed to his hand.

Next time... Phew... Next time, we must install a walking elevator for the escape tunnel... Maginot took the tablet and asked directly to the adjutant without looking at the screen, You can't take it lightly even if you are a friendly army. Ark. The situation outside is still completely unknown. Don’t trust anyone easily except ourselves... By the way, have you read the identification code of this bomber? Which unit does it belong to?

It was found out... The adjutant hesitated, Yes...

Don't be hesitant, just say it! Maginot patted the female adjutant's tight thigh hard - this was not because he wanted to take advantage of it, but just out of impatience - I have to say that, like Levi, For example, this beautiful female adjutant is simply a useless vase. She can do the clerical work that a secretary does, but she is of no use at all in an emergency.

However, placing Levi in ​​the position of adjutant seemed a bit unfair - Maginot couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's really hard to use people when they are needed... He has worked hard in the garrison for most of his life, and his subordinates can really lead them. There are so few officers who fight with soldiers that they can be counted on one hand.

Moreover, these key officers who could lead troops were all killed in the attacks of the heretical sects...

Don't tell me that this bomber belongs to the Ark Guard Fleet, right? Maginot raised his eyebrows and prayed in his heart: Don't be...don't be...

The Ark garrison fleet has been completely destroyed. Anyone who has seen those photos will not think that any aircraft can survive in that situation. Furthermore, considering that this stealth bomber is like a ghost, it suddenly appears in the sky. Appearing above the base... These two points combined make it difficult for people to doubt whether the pilot flying this plane is actually a human...

No... the adjutant shook his head, This plane belongs to... Fleet Zero. However, a few days ago, Fleet Zero had been identified as rebels and all were annihilated. Only one ship escaped. …”

What did you say? Fleet Zero? Maginot was stunned, then stood up excitedly, Is that the Fleet Zero that defends Yagunaktor?!

Yes... There was a trace of doubt on the adjutant's face, But they have rebelled... They should be the enemy now. Why do you, General, seem a little... happy?

Rebellion...rebellion... General Maginot, who had been in high-level military circles for a long time, quickly calmed down his expression, sat down again, clasped his hands together, and repeated the word rebel over and over again, with a look in his eyes. It is also constantly changing. After almost half a minute, he raised his head and asked, Did anyone on this plane take the initiative to contact us?

No. The adjutant shook his head.

Then did they respond to our inquiry? Maginot asked again.

No. The adjutant continued to shake his head.

Tsk... strange... who could they be? What's the purpose of coming to me?

General, do you want the air defense troops to open fire and shoot down this plane? the adjutant tried to ask.

Don't! Don't! Hearing the adjutant ask this, Maginot suddenly became anxious, They are definitely not enemies! If they were enemies, they would have already dropped the bomb on my head at this distance. I There was no time to hide in the bunker!”

But we can't just continue the stalemate like this, right? the adjutant said, The troops sent by Beiyuan Fortress will arrive here in four hours, and the people from 1045 Base are already on the way. If there is any misunderstanding by then, , if something unexpected happens again, I'm afraid...

Get me connected to the communication tower. I want to talk directly to the people on that plane. Magino said in a deep voice, I think they are here to find me.

Maginot's command terminal was quickly connected to the public communication channel. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by a familiar voice before he even finished half of his sentence: Damn fat man, you are promoted. The back rack is also getting higher and higher? We waited for you for a long time before you dared to say anything? To be honest, did you run into the bunker like shit? Have you changed your pants?

This mean tone reminded Maginot of an annoying face, and then he thought that this was a public communication channel, and everyone in the base could hear it, and his face suddenly became uneasy. , whispered: It's not convenient here, please change the channel to talk.

Okay, how about changing to this one? The next second, the hound's voice rang in Maginot's internal command channel. This is the most confidential communication channel in Mukach Base. Before the key is given, , even the staff officers under Maginot could not enter this channel.

However, people can appear under his nose unnoticed and can decipher this encrypted communication channel. Magino already feels a little numb: Nick... why do you appear here?

I've said many times, don't call me Nick. The hound replied angrily, As for why I appear here, that's not important. What's important is what's going on with the Ark.

Did you also get the news? Maginot was surprised at first, and then overjoyed. Is Yagunaktor also willing to join us?

What to join? This time, the hound was a little confused.

I know you are definitely not rebelling, this must be a misunderstanding!
