On January 10, local time, Huang Ji used a few parts stripped from an airplane and biological materials he produced himself to build a three-meter-long aircraft.
Though it was over three meters long, it was slender, like a black, bony insect with eight wings.
Its upper and lower wings overlapped, making it look as though it had four.
Huang Ji had altered its appearance considerably to suit his needs. Its aerodynamics were modeled on a dragonfly's, but the design improved on the original, retaining only its finest principles.
The finished craft no longer looked much like a dragonfly. It looked more like a winged dragon, so he named it the Yinglong-class.
It also contained a few mechanical components. For Keke to work with it, she needed electronic equipment to assist her.
Otherwise, most of its mechanical structure was devoted to power.
Inside were a high-capacity lithium battery of Huang Ji's own design and an array of twelve Na-element Air Batteries.
That was right: this UFO was rechargeable. Its batteries supplied most of its power.
Not all of it, though. It could also digest food for a little metabolic energy and nutrients, and draw small amounts of energy from sunlight and other radiation.
The batteries, meanwhile, were used chiefly for propulsion.
This design eliminated the need for a generator. That made the craft harder to detect and spared it the need for extensive cooling, noise reduction, and fuel storage.
It was exceptionally light and could fly faster as a result. It could cruise steadily at six hundred kilometers per hour and burst up to eight hundred!
It was simply light and powerful.
To keep it as stable as a dragonfly even at those speeds, Huang Ji had designed a Gyroscope himself. It could even function in space.
It might have been
