Changkong Fighter

Chapter 288 Internal Stress

"I'm coming!"

Even some senior academicians were excited when they saw the first extraterrestrial life form that humans had ever encountered walk into the laboratory.

Rupa stepped out of the container and first observed his surroundings to understand his situation. He then discovered that there were more than a dozen security personnel on guard around the room, and various monitoring devices on the ceiling, as well as a miniature quadcopter suspended in the air.

After observing the room, Rupa stared intently at the Type 2, which was over 20 meters long, on the test bench, especially the patterns and designs on it, and slowly walked towards the Type 2.

According to the information from the [Ascended One], the aliens seem to intend to use this to send it back.

Those around them tensed as the aliens walked toward Type 2, while the security personnel in the monitoring room kept a close eye on the aliens' every move, ready to respond to any emergencies.

Rupa gradually approached the more than 20-meter-long aircraft, carefully examining the symbols and damaged parts on it. Its gaze returned to Liu Jun, and without needing to say more, it already knew that Liu Jun had shot down the aircraft.

"How do you use it?"

As Liu Jun's words were translated, all the experts held their breath, eager to see how the aliens would control the spacecraft.

Having someone demonstrate it to you is a completely different experience from actually doing it yourself.

After receiving Liu Jun's instructions, Rupa stepped forward and gently stroked a certain area of ​​the aircraft with his tentacles. Under the gaze of the photoelectric sensor, a subtle color change could be clearly seen on Rupa's protective suit. Then, the markings on the Type 2 aircraft in front of him flashed and then went out.

Rupa turned to look at the ascendant.

[System, Fault]

It seems my attack damaged some Type 2 internal circuitry, but no problem, there's a ready-made alien here. I brought in an Earth pilot, who, while not as professional as a mechanic, still knows some basic repairs.

"Can you fix it?"

Yes, but it requires time.

Thousands of miles away, in the command center, everyone was watching Rupa's reply. Some experts were analyzing the reliability of its words. They had been tricked once before, so they had to be careful.

If the wormhole is repaired and reopened, it will be different this time. This time, Dongda is fully prepared. If an alien civilization reopens the wormhole, Dongda Express will send a large number of "Mr. Yu" over to let them experience the warmth of humanity.

Will it do it obediently?

"Sir, based on our assessment, there's less than a 15% chance that Rupa is lying."

"Yes, we need to be prepared to deal with this, so that the same thing doesn't happen again."

"clear."

At this point, the old leader suddenly changed his tone and continued, "Regarding the upgrading ceremony."

The University of Tokyo still doesn't quite understand this upgrade ceremony, but if Changkong can continue to upgrade, then the University of Tokyo will have a heavyweight trump card. After all, aliens don't communicate with the weak, so the University of Tokyo will have the greatest say.

"We believe that new adversaries will engage in regional battles with Chang Kong."

"Battle." The old commander tapped his fingers on the edge of the table, his brows furrowing slightly. Liu Jun was currently piloting a modified J-15T, which, in terms of performance, was still a fourth-generation fighter with no fundamental breakthroughs. If they were to engage in a one-on-one duel with an alien spacecraft, then the performance of the spacecraft would be one of the most crucial factors in determining the outcome.

Currently, fourth-generation fighters are sufficient for most aircraft, but who knows if extraterrestrial civilizations will develop more advanced aircraft? In that case, the J-15T might be suppressed. We cannot allow fighter jets to become a burden for pilots!

Indeed, according to experts' analysis of flight data, the aircraft currently in the hands of Dongda University are gradually becoming insufficient to meet Liu Jun's needs; the fighter jets cannot keep up with the pilots. If others had said this before, most experts would have scoffed at it.

What? You can withstand 15G overload maneuvers? Well, right now, I really can, and I've done it more than once!
When will our sixth-generation fighter jet arrive?

The experts abandoned the idea of ​​fifth-generation fighters. The only one that was truly suitable for Liu Jun was Shenyang Aircraft Corporation's sixth-generation fighter, which features a super-excitement and variable wingtip system.

It was first unveiled in 2024, and it has been more than a year now. Various tests have been completed, but the biggest problem now is the supporting weapon system.

As a sixth-generation fighter jet, how could it possibly still use the traditional GSH-1 cannon and traditional missiles? It must be replaced with a 30mm electromagnetic cannon, or even a cannon pod system and airborne vertical launch, to greatly improve the sustained combat capability of the sixth-generation fighter jet.

"These still need a lot of time to be perfected, but it will be soon."

"How many were built?"

When the old academician heard the expert ask this question, he immediately lowered his eyebrows. The Flying Shark, a fourth-generation fighter jet, was almost becoming a "second-generation fighter" in Liu Jun's hands. After going out to perform a high-G test, it had to be thoroughly inspected inside and out.

Currently, there are still spare fourth-generation fighters, but for sixth-generation fighters, only a few prototypes have been produced so far, which cannot withstand Liu Jun's consumption.

"Currently, two are undergoing final testing."

The old leader nodded, turned to look at his alien friend in the laboratory. After Rupa activated Type 2, a "door" opened on the side of the alien spacecraft. However, the door was just the right size for Rupa to crawl through, but he did not go in. Instead, he turned to look at Liu Jun.

What is the power source of the aircraft?

[Sacred Relics]

"Holy object?"

Just as aliens don't understand human engine terminology, Earthlings don't understand alien terminology either, so let the experts study that.

We need to study this aircraft as soon as possible, and once the research is nearly complete, we'll send Rupa back.

Over the next few days, the experts spent almost the entire time inside the alien spacecraft. With Rupa's cooperation, they gradually came to the conclusion that the energy device of the alien spacecraft was a technological black box.

This kind of black box is only meant to be used, not studied. Even after questioning Rupa, it did not explain in detail how it works. A sacred object is a sacred object.

"So, this sacred object is a kind of gravity shielding device, or a deflection system, which generates 'internal stress' after gravity deflects when it is activated."

After numerous studies, experts concluded that extraterrestrial spacecraft could deflect gravity. However, this answer did not put them at ease; instead, it made them sweat profusely.

If extraterrestrial civilizations can deflect gravity, it means that their fundamental physics is superior to that of humans!

This means that they are fully capable of overwhelming humans, instead of fighting them to a standstill as they are now!
