The old academician rubbed his swollen temples with a bitter look on his face.
I am seventy years old and I have never had such a headache in my life.
Yesterday I patted my chest and said that adding more people would not be a problem, but everyone asked for 10,000 scientific researchers.
He knows better than anyone else that the weight of the scientific research department alone, let alone 10,000, if there are more than 1,000 people, the old chief will be stuck.
The only way to break the situation is to involve the military.
The military has resources but is in urgent need of top-notch equipment and technology. As long as the big bosses of the three armed forces see the benefits of boarding the ship, they will naturally follow you and ask for quotas from the old leaders.
When the time comes, let alone ten thousand, no matter how much it is, the old chief will not be able to refuse.
The old academician immediately picked up the red confidential phone and dialed the old chief's number.
"Chief, I would like to hold a morning meeting tomorrow morning to report on the latest progress of the boarding inspection."
"This matter involves national defense and security. We must invite military representatives to the scene and listen to their suggestions."
There was silence for two seconds on the other end of the phone, and then the old chief's voice came. "That's right, I'll have people come over tomorrow."
Early the next morning, the temporary conference room at the military port was packed with people.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Navy and Air Force, the Director of Theater Equipment, and the Director of the S.P.E.A.R. Bureau, Zheng Xian, all wore military uniforms and looked solemn.
Without any nonsense, the old academician turned on the projector and directly projected the detection data of Leman Russ Tank, Valkyrie gunships, and Laser weapon arrays on the big screen.
The people who were originally careless suddenly became energetic.
"Are these things on that alien warship?" the army commander spoke first.
"Yes." The old academician nodded, "And the other party allows boarding the ship to inspect and record, as long as the cans are produced."
The conference room instantly exploded.
"Is there such a good thing?!"
The military bosses couldn't sit still at all. They were all gearing up and wanted to board the ship immediately to see these top-notch equipment with their own eyes.
But the excitement was gone. The army commander frowned and was the first to question:
"The parameters on paper look really impressive, but without actual combat data, we can't judge its true combat effectiveness, and we don't know whether it can be adapted to our existing combat system."
"That's right." The Navy Commander immediately added, "There is also the energy supply and maintenance system of Las-cannon. Can our existing energy system of Destroyer support its continuous operation? Can we reproduce the subsequent energy supply?"
The commander of the Air Force nodded in agreement. "We have been studying the vertical take-off and landing technology of the Valkyrie gunship for so many years without a breakthrough. Even if we get the parameters, can it be adapted to our fighter production line?"
The theater equipment minister also added, "There is also armor alloy smelting technology. Can our existing equipment be mass-produced? If it can only be seen but not used, no matter how much manpower and material resources are invested, the gain will not be worth the loss."
The conference room fell silent instantly.
The big guys nodded one after another, the excitement on their faces fading away.
The old leader concluded. "Everyone is right to worry. Without actual combat testing and adaptability guarantee, even the most advanced equipment is useless."
No one knew that a Scarab was lying quietly on the vent of the conference room, transmitting all the conversations word by word to the bridge of the Cobra-class Destroyer simultaneously.
In the bridge, Lucifer twisted the body of Scarab with his fingertips. His emerald eyes swept over Fu Haoran, his tone full of disdain:
"Dynasty nobles will never use such unflattering means to pry into the thoughts of mortals."
Fu Haoran leaned on the command chair, smiled and spread his hands, "This is called accurately grasping customer needs."
"If you don't understand your customers' concerns, how can you prescribe the right medicine?"
Fu Haoran had long expected that the military would question it.
No matter how beautiful the parameters are on paper, they are not as convincing as a real demonstration.
Just in time, if you feel sleepy, someone will give you a pillow.
As soon as he finished speaking, the serious voice of Tech-Acolyte came from the communicator. "Your Excellency, two UFOs have been detected approaching. They are 500 kilometers away. Optical stealth has been activated."
Fu Haoran's eyes lit up instantly, and he turned to look at Lucifer, with a playful smile on his lips:
"Look, isn't the demand from customers coming now? The work that comes to your door is not wasted."
"Wade, send a Valkyrie gunboat to meet the guests." Fu Haoran ordered into the communicator.
Wade was stunned and asked quickly, "Sir, there are two planes on the opposite side, do you want to send two?"
"One is enough." Fu Haoran said with determination, "Let them see what it means to be on behalf of others. Remember, don't embarrass me!"
Valkyrie gunboat received the order.
The hangar door slowly opened, and a light blue energy halo lit up from the engine nozzle.
It rises vertically and breaks through the clouds instantly.
The scientific researchers who boarded the ship raised their heads one after another and exclaimed, "What happened? Why did it suddenly take off?"
The news quickly spread to the conference room.
"What's the reason?" the old chief asked with a frown.
"They said they found an unidentified aircraft approaching and went to drive it away."
Everyone looked at each other.
There was no response from the radar at the military port. How could there be an unidentified aircraft approaching?
The one who responded the fastest was Zheng Xian. He frowned and said, "The radar did not capture the signal. Globally, only S.H.I.E.L.D. has this technology. It is the Quinjet fighter of S.H.I.E.L.D.."
"Is that the penetration fighter that can operate optical stealth and cannot be detected by conventional radar?" the Air Force Commander asked with a frown.
"That's right." Zheng Xian nodded and added, "Only the S.H.I.E.L.D. is installed in the world. It can cruise at Hiss speed and take off and land vertically. When the optical stealth is turned on, it is difficult to detect it with the naked eye and air defense radar."
Snap!
As soon as he finished speaking, the representative of the Air Force slammed the table angrily. "How arrogant! There is no entry report, which is a complete disregard for our country's airspace sovereignty!"
"Are you going to stop it?" someone asked.
The old chief shook his head, his tone calm but domineering. "No need."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, with doubts on their faces.
The old leader sneered and said slowly, "S.H.I.E.L.D. is nominally under the coordination of United Nations. In fact, it only listens to the command of Washington. It uses global funds and does all its own private work."
"We didn't pay them and couldn't control them, but they dared to blatantly break into our door, but they didn't take us seriously."
"We just pretend we don't know. We just want to see how capable this partner is."
The leader paused and added, "You can tell whether it's a mule or a horse by taking it out for a walk."
"We didn't notice it, and they didn't report it. If something happened, it was their illegal intrusion. It has nothing to do with us."
Some people are still worried. "What if things go wrong in the end?"
The old chief's eyes turned cold and his tone was domineering. "S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't contact us, how do we know they have been here?"
Everyone understood instantly and nodded.
The old chief wants to lend Fu Haoran's hand and teach S.H.I.E.L.D. a lesson.
At the same time, in the clouds, in two Quinjet fighters with optical stealth turned on, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were reporting to the communicator:
"Director, the air defense system in this airspace is just a decoration for us. If we turn on the optical stealth, it is impossible for them to detect us."
"Even if they are discovered, they won't dare to use force against us, don't worry."
"Don't be careless, just stay hidden and find out the source of the signal." Hill emphasized.
The agent sneered, stretched out his hand to control the fighter plane, and prepared to approach for reconnaissance. "Don't worry, our technology is world-leading, what can we do..."
Before he finished speaking, the cockpit alarm sounded wildly, and a dazzling prompt popped up on the screen:
"Warning! Locked by enemy fire control radar! Repeat! Locked by enemy fire control radar!"
The agent's face instantly turned ugly. This slap in the face must have come too quickly.
"Damn it, we've clearly turned on optical invisibility, how could they lock on to us?!"
"Wait a minute, there's an aircraft approaching quickly, coming towards us?"
