Chen Yi looked at the drone in front of him, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He couldn't wait to see the result of his latest creation. He quickly connected the drone to his computer and uploaded the avionics control program he had manually written.
Next, he carefully connected the pure, original, unadjusted battery, which had a theoretical safety attribute of 10 but an actual safety attribute of only 1.4, in series.
"Phew, it didn't explode. Looks like my tech is better than Samsung's Note 7," Chen Yi joked, relieved that the battery had been successfully installed without any expected smoke, fire, or explosion.
He then picked up the solar panel next to him, boosted and rectified it, and connected it to the battery's charging port. The drone's attributes were as follows:
[Item: Ion Propulsion Drone]
[Attributes: Energy x42.1(!), Speed x1.6, Mass x21, Stability x2.6, Strength x14, Communication x12.5, Radar Imaging x10.6, Avionics x34.5, Aesthetics x3.8, Endurance Replenishment x4.6]
[Consciousness Wave: 6801203]
[Note: This is a uniquely designed ion propulsion aircraft, but unfortunately, its unsafe and unstable energy core makes it full of danger. The cumbersome endurance replenishment module also causes stability, speed, aesthetics, and other attributes to decline. Perhaps, you can find a way to adhere the film to the fuselage surface, which might bring you some surprises.]
Chen Yi took a few steps back, ensuring he was at the maximum safe distance for attribute adjustment. He then activated the attribute adjustment function, and a colorful light enveloped the drone with the solar panel on its back.
After more than ten seconds, the light dissipated, and the original thick, hard, square monocrystalline silicon solar panel disappeared, replaced by a special, semi-transparent black film. Faint golden threads spread across the film, forming small nodes like slime mold, eventually converging into two wires that connected to the drone's charging port.
"This looks a bit like the flexible circuit board inside those old membrane keyboards," Chen Yi observed, checking the drone's attributes:
[Item: Ion Propulsion Drone]
[Attributes: Energy x21.1(!), Speed x2.6, Mass x21, Stability x2.6, Strength x14, Communication x12.5, Radar Imaging x10.6, Avionics x34.5, Aesthetics x4.8, Endurance Recharge x24.6]
[Consciousness Wave: 6790203]
[Detected an attribute exceeding its initial value. Do you wish to read the information? Yes/No!]
[Note: This is a uniquely designed ion propulsion aircraft, but unfortunately, its unsafe and unstable energy core makes it full of danger. The thin endurance replenishment module also causes its stability, speed, aesthetics, and other attributes to decline. Perhaps, you can find a way to adhere the film to the fuselage surface, which might bring you some surprises.]
Chen Yi looked at the evaluation in the notes, not rushing to read the information. Instead, he took out a piece of monocrystalline silicon solar panel, connected it to a high-precision current and power meter, and placed it under the sun on the balcony. He then connected the solar film to the same current and power meter, spreading them out together with the monocrystalline silicon solar panel on the balcony to bask in the sunlight.
Five minutes later, Chen Yi recorded the power values of the single solar panel and the solar cell film, then measured their areas to finally derive their solar energy conversion efficiencies. "After calculation, per unit area, the average power of the battery film over ten minutes is 42 watts, and the power of the monocrystalline silicon solar panel over ten minutes is 21 watts. Compared to the actual 18% solar energy conversion rate of most monocrystalline silicon solar panels, this battery film's solar energy conversion rate has reached 35.9%."
Looking at the calculated numbers, Chen Yi shook his head in disappointment. "Read information."
Dense information appeared in Chen Yi's mind, revealing a thin-film semiconductor material produced by chemical deposition with a light-concentrating structure, along with corresponding processes for slicing, stringing, splicing, laminating, and compound encapsulation. The process was very ordinary, but the real essence was this special semiconductor material.
Common polycrystalline silicon or monocrystalline silicon solar panels convert light energy into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect of semiconductors

Chen Yi looked at the attributes of the Photonic Stealth Drone, feeling a mix of satisfaction and unease. The energy attribute had increased significantly, but the instability was also alarming. He decided to test it immediately to see if it could handle the increased energy.
He carried the drone to the open space behind the warehouse, set up the launch platform, and connected it to the drone. After a series of checks, he activated the engine and prepared for takeoff.
The drone's engine hummed, and the propellers spun up. Chen Yi monitored the engine's output and energy consumption, ensuring everything was within acceptable limits. He then initiated the takeoff sequence.
The drone lifted off the ground, and Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief. The first test was successful, and the drone was stable in the air. He began to test its maneuverability, pushing it to its limits.
The drone responded well, performing barrel rolls, loops, and steep climbs with ease. Chen Yi was impressed with its agility, but he knew he couldn't push it too hard. The unstable energy could cause an explosion at any moment.
After a series of tests, Chen Yi decided to test the drone's endurance. He set a course for the open sea and engaged the autopilot. The drone flew out of sight, and Chen Yi monitored its progress from the ground.
Hours passed, and the drone continued to fly, converting solar energy into electricity and replenishing its energy reserves. Chen Yi watched the drone's energy consumption and production, making sure it was operating within safe limits.
Suddenly, an alarm blared on the control panel. Chen Yi's heart skipped a beat as he realized the drone's energy consumption had spiked. He quickly took control of the drone and initiated an emergency landing sequence.
The drone descended rapidly, and Chen Yi guided it back to the launch platform. As it landed, he cut the engine and breathed a sigh of relief. The drone had survived its first test, but it was clear that the unstable energy was a significant risk.
Chen Yi disconnected the drone from the launch platform and carried it back to the workspace. He knew he had to find a way to stabilize the energy or risk losing the drone in a catastrophic explosion.
As he worked on the drone, he couldn't shake the feeling that he was being watched. He looked up and saw a figure standing in the doorway. It was Li Yuxin, the woman who had saved him from the Rongfei incident.
"Li Yuxin, what are you doing here?" Chen Yi asked, surprised to see her.
"I came to see if you needed any help," Li Yuxin replied, stepping into the workspace. "I heard you were working on a new drone, and I wanted to see if I could assist you in any way."
Chen Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "I could use some help. I'm trying to stabilize the energy in this drone, but I'm not sure how to go about it."
Li Yuxin walked over to the drone and examined it closely. "I see. This is a photonic energy drone, isn't it? I've heard of such designs, but I've never seen one in person."
Chen Yi nodded. "Yes, it's a photonic energy drone. The problem is, the energy is unstable, and I don't know how to stabilize it."
Li Yuxin thought for a moment, then said, "I might have an idea. Have you considered using a quantum stabilizer? It's a device that uses quantum entanglement to stabilize energy fluctuations."
Chen Yi's eyes widened. "Quantum stabilizer? I've never heard of such a thing. Can you make one?"
Li Yuxin smiled. "I can't make one myself, but I know someone who can. Leave it to me. I'll see what I can do."
Chen Yi watched as Li Yuxin left the workspace, feeling a mix of gratitude and hope. Perhaps with her help, he could finally stabilize the energy in the Photonic Stealth Drone and make it truly invincible.
Meanwhile, Li Yuxin returned to her office and made a call. She spoke to someone in hushed tones, explaining the situation and requesting their assistance. After hanging up, she leaned back in her chair and thought about Chen Yi.
She had been watching him for some time now, impressed by his tenacity and resourcefulness. She knew he was a genius, but she also knew he was reckless and prone to taking unnecessary risks. She hoped that by helping him, she could guide him in the right direction and prevent him from making any more dangerous mistakes.
As she waited for a response, she couldn't help but wonder what Chen Yi's true potential was. With the right guidance and support, she believed

Meanwhile, at the Air Force Management Command Center, a group of officers and technicians were gathered around a large screen displaying a map of China. A red dot was moving rapidly across the screen, representing Chen Yi's drone.
One of the officers, a colonel, pointed at the screen and asked, "What's the situation with the radar? Why isn't it detecting anything?"
A technician sitting in front of a computer screen replied, "Sir, the radar is working perfectly. It's detecting everything else, but... it's not picking up the drone."
The colonel frowned, "What do you mean 'it's not picking up the drone'? Is it malfunctioning?"
The technician shook his head, "No, sir. It's not malfunctioning. It's just... it's like the drone isn't there. The radar can't detect it."
Another officer chimed in, "Could it be some kind of stealth technology? But even stealth planes leave a heat signature. This drone... it's like it doesn't exist at all."
The colonel turned to a man in civilian clothes standing at the back of the room. "Professor Li, what do you make of this?"
Professor Li, a renowned physicist, stepped forward. "I've been in touch with Chen Yi. He's using some kind of advanced technology that's beyond our current understanding. As for the radar, I'm afraid it's not a malfunction. It's just... the radar is fake, right?"
The room fell silent. Everyone looked at Professor Li, unsure of how to respond to his question.
Finally, the colonel broke the silence. "Professor Li, are you saying that our radar is incapable of detecting this drone?"
Professor Li nodded, "Yes, that's what I'm saying. I'm afraid our current technology is no match for what Chen Yi is working on."
The colonel sighed, "Alright, everyone. Let's keep an eye on the drone's movements. If it causes any trouble, we'll have to intervene. But for now, let's just observe and learn. Maybe one day, we'll be able to catch up to Chen Yi's level of technology."
