Reinforcement Panel: Tech Wars

Chapter 160 Manta Ray Appears in South City
A red light swooped down from the sky, and the supersonic roar caused by it attracted the attention of many people in the nearby area.

It was afternoon at this time, and people on the ground were busy with their lives. The black aircraft that suddenly rushed down from the sky attracted everyone's attention.

Inside the cockpit of the Manta Ray, Wei Jiang didn't pay attention to these things. Instead, he looked calm.

Since it was no longer a secret that the Avengers had direct links with the officials of the University of Tokyo, there was no need for him to have the manta ray dive into the water from the estuary and return secretly.

The black aircraft fell into the river, and the ships sailing on the river were frightened and urgently avoided the aircraft and dived into the waters on the river.

"Red Star, communicate with the authorities. Manta rays will frequently move through this area of ​​water in the future."

"Let the ships on the river sail normally, and the aircraft will not affect the navigation of the ships."

"Yes."

The manta ray dived to the bottom of the river and sailed to a section of water where there were no river boats. The manta ray floated up, Wei Jiang jumped out of the open hatch, and swam to the river bank.

Turning around to look at the dark shadow that was gradually disappearing in the meeting place, Wei Jiang shook his wet hair and slowly walked towards the road by the river.

A few minutes later, he got in a car and left.

"Special exercise, please do not be surprised, the navigation order in this water area remains unchanged."

At the same time, all ships sailing on the river received a broadcast notification from an unknown source.

More than ten minutes later, before people had time to calm down from their surprise, the Nanshi River Management Department issued an explanatory notice.

"The black aircraft is an official new equipment for normal flight testing. Please do not worry about all ships sailing on the Nanshi River. Please carry out production operations according to normal sailing order."

In addition to this message, the Nanshi Management Department also issued another message at the same time. This message was pushed to a wider range of people, and all citizens living in this area received this message.

"Important notice! Special equipment drills and flight tests are being conducted in the Nanshi area recently. If you see a black aircraft during the process, please remain calm. The black aircraft is a major scientific research and military achievement of a certain research institute of mine. Thank you for your attention and continue to work hard for the great rejuvenation of Dongda!"

Wei Jiang received this text message when he turned on his mobile phone while sitting in the car.

Wei Jiang wasn’t sure how Red Star communicated with the authorities, but through analyzing this text message, the result was pretty good.

As promised before, the authorities did stand firmly on Wei Jiang's side.

A nuclear explosion had just occurred in the U.S., and at this sensitive moment, the University of Tokyo did not hesitate to directly acknowledge its relationship with the black aircraft.

Wei Jiang was impressed by the courage and decision-making ability demonstrated by this operation.

The vehicle was driving very fast, and after more than half an hour, the familiar scenery of the village below came into view.

Wei Jiang got out of the car, said goodbye to the driver and walked into his yard.
-
"Mr. Liu, if we do this, aren't we standing directly against the little hat?"

"I personally don't believe that the nuclear explosion in the Cape Canaveral had nothing to do with Red Star."

"The relationship between Red Star and Little Hat is now a direct war. Although the nuclear explosion was assessed to be a low-yield nuclear bomb, we can't pretend we didn't see it."

"If the extremists in the Little Hat want to stir up some trouble in the University of the East, we may not be able to stop them."

Just now he firmly supported Mr. Liu's decision, but when he thought about the possible impact he might face next, Tang Wu still felt a little unsure.

Little Hat is not an opponent who values ​​justice and war etiquette, and he has no idea what this group of people can do.

“Does it matter what we do?”

"People already know the relationship between Red Star and Dongda. If they continue to pretend to be confused and cover it up, they are just treating everyone as fools."

Unlike Tang Wu's worry, Old Liu's expression seemed a little indifferent.

Old Liu moved to the sofa, picked up the teacup that had been cooling on the table for a while, and blew on it.

"Even if we don't admit it, don't worry, Ugly Eagle and Little Hat will definitely disclose the information that Red Star is from Dongda as soon as possible."

"Also, the relationship between Dongda and Red Star will definitely be exaggerated and announced to the outside world by these two companies."

"If that's the case, why don't we take the initiative to admit it?"

"We announced it ourselves, which means we are not afraid of the outside world knowing this secret. We just want to tell other forces that Dongda can withstand their prying and attack."

"In this case, they will consider whether they have the strength to face the Red Star and Dongda forces, don't you think?"

Old Liu raised the corner of his mouth and took a sip of the tea in his hand.

Perhaps influenced by Mr. Liu's calmness and optimism, Tang Wu's worries became less urgent.

"But we will eventually have to face questioning from many forces on Blue Star, which will inevitably have an adverse impact on our plans."

Old Liu nodded and spat out a piece of tea leaves.

“There is an impact, but it’s not necessarily a negative one.”

"With the Red Star's victory over the Caps, how many forces do you think would be confident that they can stop the Red Star?"

"There will be questioning, but if we let these forces really come charging at us with real weapons, how many do you think will come?"

What Tang Wu kept thinking about was Dongda’s Nanhai Strategy Plan.

This plan is directly related to Dongda's breaking of the regional blockade. Maritime trade routes and regional deterrence all need to start from Nanhai.

The small forces in Nanhai have a clear gap with Xiaomao in terms of military and technological strength.

If the small hat that Red Star can hit has no power to fight back, the small forces of Nanhai will definitely be defeated even more miserably.

What Mr. Liu said makes sense. It seems that the Nanhai Project has hope of being completed soon.

Tang Wu's eyes turned, and he saw not only no worry on Old Liu's face, but some joy instead.

"Mr. Liu, is there anything I didn't see clearly?"

Old Liu chuckled, put down his teacup, walked to the mahogany table, and picked up a piece of intelligence sent from a special department in Nan City.

".A black triangular aircraft fell from the sky into the river. Analysis shows that this aircraft is more than 90% similar to the unidentified aircraft that was widely circulated on the Internet some time ago."

"This time, Hong Xing did not intend to disguise himself. He directly drove this aircraft to the South City area without notifying us in advance."

“Isn’t this a good thing?”

Handing the paper to Tang Wu, Mr. Liu asked:
"Why do you think the red star landed directly near South City in broad daylight?"

Of course Tang Wu had read the information on the paper, but at that time Hong Xing called him directly to communicate with him, and he only wanted to take immediate action to smooth over the possible impact on the public.

Mr. Liu's question finally gave him the opportunity to start thinking carefully about the meaning behind Hongxing's move.

"She finally decided to open up and cooperate with us?"

Old Liu nodded slightly, he thought so too.

In the past, Hong Xing attached great importance to personal information, and the authorities have never found an opportunity to collect Hong Xing’s real personal information without angering him.

What Red Star has done today is indeed a big change, and it is definitely a good thing for Todai.

"I think so too."

"Hong Xing has too many secrets. The cutting-edge technology she gave to the forces astounded our scientists. Don't forget that."

"Whether it's the black aircraft or her metal armor, those are the treasures she has been guarding and not making public."

Perhaps feeling a little tired, Mr. Liu walked to his chair and sat down, his expression changed and he said seriously:
"She has super equipment that surpasses that of ordinary people. If she keeps it secret, we should be on guard against her."

"Now she has chosen to show her hand, which is good for everyone and conducive to cooperation."

"We will also have a better chance to get a closer look at the true appearance of the two pieces of equipment."

After listening to what Mr. Liu said, Tang Wu thought of the armor he had seen in the northwest Gobi some time ago. Now it seems that the tall armor that Red Star used to wreak havoc in the city of Tviv a few hours ago is the real killing weapon.

Will Red Star give them access to these two pieces of equipment?

Any movement that occurs in front of the public at Dongda University is destined to be seen by everyone on Blue Star from the moment it occurs.

"A huge explosion occurred in the city of Tviv, and the smoke from the explosion rose hundreds of meters high. The scene suffered heavy losses. The military of the small caps was dispatched to block the explosion area within a radius of several kilometers." "A metal giant appeared in the suburbs of Tviv and attacked the ground forces of the small caps. The small caps lost hundreds of heavy equipment."

"KB gunmen attacked during the Lebastan ceremony, killing hundreds and injuring over 400 people"

"An insider revealed that the explosion in Tviv was a nuclear bomb explosion. No party has claimed responsibility for the explosion."

"An unidentified flying object was spotted in the sky above Dongdanan City and fell into the river."

So many things happened on the Blue Planet that day that shocked some ordinary people who were busy at work or had just woken up from their sleep.

Lebastan founding ceremony, KB attack, metal giant attack, nuclear bomb explosion, unidentified flying object
The emergence of intensive major news makes everyone feel that something big is about to happen in the world.

The places where these events took place and the parties involved are all highly exposed hot spots on Blue Star. In just one day, several major news stories linked these forces together. Everyone can understand that some changes must have occurred.

Wei Jiang arrived home at noon, greeted his father who was busy cooking in the kitchen, and quickly ran back to his room before his father had time to notice the abrasions exposed outside his clothes.

After washing and reapplying the ointment, Wei Jiang fell on the bed and began to snore after a while.

Fatigue and dull pain in his limbs made Wei Jiang in urgent need of rest to restore his energy.

Wei Jiang slept until dark.

In the afternoon, Wei Jiang's door was pushed open several times. His father Wei Yonghe looked at Wei Jiang, who was sleeping soundly under the quilt, with a serious expression while holding his mobile phone.

He wanted to wake Wei Jiang up, but when he saw Wei Jiang's tired face and the scratches on his forehead, Wei Yonghe retracted his outstretched hand and could only sigh and leave the room.

After waking up, Wei Jiang sat on the bed and stretched. The aches all over his body made his expression very abstract.

"Hiss, it hurts a little."

Wei Jiang endured the pain, put on a thick home suit, picked up his cell phone and walked out of the room.

The time on the phone screen showed 9:18 p.m. He put the phone in his pocket. The light in the living room outside the door was on, and a figure was sitting on the sofa, looking back at him.

"Dad, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Wei Jiang squinted his eyes and walked to sit next to his father. Only then did he realize that his father's face looked strange. Before he could ask any questions, his father took out his cell phone and placed it in front of him.

"Is this you?"

Wei Jiang rubbed his eyes and picked up his father's mobile phone to check. His father opened a short video application. In the paused video, there was a black metallic figure running on the road.

Seeing the picture, Wei Jiang calmly understood what his father wanted to ask.

Putting the phone on the table, Wei Jiang poured a glass of water for himself and his father.

"It's me, don't worry, drink some water first."

Since he could fly the manta ray directly over South City during the day, he had no intention of hiding the secret from his father any longer.

Now the conflict between him and Little Hat has become so acute that they must kill each other. If he keeps it secret from his father at this time, it will definitely be very inconvenient for him to protect his father later.

"The picture shows me in my armor."

Seeing his father's dark complexion and the panic and anxiety in his eyes, Wei Jiang sat down next to his father, grabbed his father's arm with one hand and said seriously:

"Dad, I'm going to confess this to you today."

“This matter started from a chance encounter before.”

Wei Jiang will start from the moment he met little Heidi, and tell the story of conflict, suffering, death, chance encounter, rescue, resistance, and hope.
".I was invited to participate in a ceremony held in Lebastan last night. You should have seen what happened in the ceremony on your phone."

"A lot of people died, and the murderer was from the small hat."

"Dad, I want to do something, something good."

"So I went to the military base in Twilight, and then all this happened."

After listening to Wei Jiang's story, Wei Yonghe felt extremely complicated.

He knew that his son was different, but he never imagined that this kid Wei Jiang could fly a plane wearing armor and beat the famous little hat man from Blue Star without any chance of fighting back.

His son is not just becoming a successful person, but he is so successful that he is almost out of the blue sky!

"You little brat! You're awesome now!"

"You can go to war!"

"Why don't you go to heaven?"

Wei Yonghe stopped talking halfway because he suddenly remembered that according to what Wei Jiang had just said, this kid could indeed go to heaven at any time.

"You are just one person. Even with my weight of over 100 pounds, how dare you go against the Little Hats?!"

"Didn't you say it yourself? The Little Hat Man and the Ugly Eagle are the same breed. Do you think you can defeat the Ugly Eagle?"

"No matter how powerful your armor is, they are a force!"

Wei Yonghe became angrier and angrier as he spoke. As an ordinary person, he could hardly imagine that his son would become the enemy of the Little Hat Man and the Ugly Eagle.

"Are the two of us, father and son, enough to fill their teeth?!"

Wei Yonghe was so angry that he turned sideways and kicked him.

Wei Jiang did not choose to dodge his father's kick. He could understand his father's emotions at the moment.

Anyone who is suddenly told that they have become the mortal enemy of the entire forces of Ugly Eagle and Little Hat would find it hard to accept.

Seeing Wei Jiang covering his calf and grimacing, Wei Yonghe's own kindness as a father was revealed.

It must not have been easy for my son to bear the pressure and danger when he did these things.

"How dare you, boy, cause such a big trouble?"

"No matter how miserable the people in Lebastan are, what does it have to do with you? There are so many big shots on Blue Star and no one has taken action. Who do you think you are?"

Wei Yonghe lowered his voice a little, but continued to scold Wei Jiang.

Unlike his father's panic, Wei Jiang suddenly laughed.

"Still laughing! Do you know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into? Still laughing!"

Wei Jiang raised his hand and grabbed his father's raised right hand, saying soothingly:

"Dad, don't worry."

"I'm not alone."

Wei Jiang took out his cell phone and whispered into it:
"Hongxing, call Tang Wu and I'll talk to him. Remember to disguise your voice."

While waiting for Hongxing to contact Tang Wu, Wei Jiang turned to his father and said:

"I have never been alone, I have the University of Tokyo behind me."

"You should know who Tang Wu is."

"Dad, don't say anything from now on. Just listen."

Wei Yonghe looked thoughtful. The name his son uttered sounded very familiar to him, but he didn't react for a moment.

A man's voice came from Wei Jiang's cell phone.

"Hello, Ms. Hongxing, I am Liu Jinhe."

Wei Yonghe was sitting on the side, and when he heard this voice, he was stunned.

Tang Wu might not be able to remember who it was at the moment, but he was very familiar with the name Liu Jin, especially the old man's voice in the mobile phone, which he often heard on TV.

My son Wei Jiang did not lie!
There is someone behind him!
