He ran and dodged in a hurry, trying to escape the bouncing bullets.

However, this was not an easy task. The shells missed the plane several times, and almost penetrated it by just a few centimeters, making a hole in this plane that was more valuable than its weight in gold.

He concentrated all his attention and tried his best. He was exhausted, his heart was beating fast and his breathing was heavy. He barely escaped from the rebounding machine gun shells.

"What the hell is this?"

What just happened is still fresh in my mind. The shell fired, but not only did it fail to penetrate the object, it didn't even deform it. Instead, it bounced back like a pistol bullet hitting a solid metal object.

He immediately turned the nose of the plane to look, and sure enough, the thing was not harmful at all.

Not to mention any injuries, there wasn't even any trace left, which made the pilot question his life.

"What the hell? Am I dreaming?"

The balloon remained unharmed and continued its steady but slow progress.

The pilot tried several other methods, including missiles and electromagnetic interference, but this balloon was like a black hole. It took in all attacks, but don't expect any effect.

"Damn it."

After trying several times, the pilot had to admit that there was nothing he could do and had to fly back.

After a while, he reported the matter to his superiors, hoping that the matter could be handed over to someone else.

After listening to his superior, he did not refute his opinion and directly handed it over to the ground air defense.

They have to use ground-based air defense missiles to intercept. They may not be able to hit a high-speed flying aircraft, but what about a slowly flying balloon?
Humph, that's a piece of cake, who are you looking down on?

The ground air defense force then immediately went online, uploaded coordinates and other parameters, and then aimed the missile at the balloon and prepared to attack.

"Fire!"

With a bang, the missile was launched and flew towards the balloon.

"It's just a balloon. How can it possibly withstand the power of a missile?"

"I think the previous pilot didn't hit the target at all, so he just blamed it on the balloon."

"What an incompetent piece of trash. We have to help him clean up the mess."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. They are friendly forces after all. It's just that the noble air force actually came to us for help. Isn't it really rare?"

Several people, either overtly or covertly, some directly mocked, some were sarcastic, which made the pilots' leader very angry.

He wanted to shoot this thing down as soon as possible during the New Year so that he could go back and leave here without having to talk to these guys.

However, the development of things seemed somewhat beyond their expectations.

The missile hit the balloon directly as they expected.

Then the smoke cleared and they watched expectantly, but nothing happened.

Thump thump thump——

Nothing.

There was no effect, as if nothing had happened, the balloon was still floating in the air, without any change.

He looked unharmed, just like a big boss in a comic who had been hit by a powerful attack. For a moment, many people were shocked.

"Huh? What the hell is this?"

"Yeah, this thing is too weird."

"It actually blocked the missile attack? Am I dreaming?"

"Is this an illusion?"

No matter who it was, they all looked incredulous.

Not to mention a mere balloon, even an airship or a heavy bomber can be easily shot down, so why is it that when it encounters this thing, it has no effect at all?

The Americans tried their best to shoot down the balloon in the sky, but no matter how many times they tried, any attack method was like scratching an itch.

Bullets and artillery shells could neither push it away nor cause it to deform in the slightest, as if they had not hit it at all.

The balloon continued to move forward slowly but steadily, leaving the Americans stunned and in disbelief.

"What the hell is that?"

"I do not know either."

"No matter what I do, it's useless."

"This is really abominable, what should I do next?"

"I do not know either."

Everyone was talking about it.

In their eyes, balloons are always things that burst with a poke. Even if weather balloons are not that fragile, they should at least be able to withstand the external air pressure. But to say that attacking with missiles and machine guns has no effect at all, isn't that a joke?

"There is only one solution left, a solution that is not a solution."

Although it was a bit embarrassing, the US military decided to seek help from scientists. They wanted them to take a balloon or helicopter to go directly there to see what was going on and see if they could use their wisdom to find the weakness.

When everyone heard that they could get rid of this hot potato, they were very happy and immediately agreed to the idea.

So they did just that, finding a hapless researcher and sending him over in an armed helicopter.

At first he didn't know what was going on and was trembling with fear.

What unpoppable balloon? He would rather believe that this was a bad joke, and maybe they would just push him off the helicopter when they reached the destination.

But now, he understood what was going on.

"Well, it really is a balloon."

"Dr. Richard, look at what's going on."

Ever since this damn balloon appeared, the US military has been in a state of panic every day.

People all over the world are watching them. The nature of the situation has changed since some American civilians who love to watch the fun posted videos of the fighter jets and missiles on the Internet.

People all over the world are watching how the United States makes a fool of itself.

Not only could we not shoot down a tiny balloon, but all the means we used were useless, and we couldn't even change its route.

Even if rain bombs or something like that were used to create rain, the balloon would still slowly and inexorably fly toward Washington, D.C., and there was no way to change that.

"Let me see."

After Richard approached, he looked at it carefully from a close distance and measured the length and angle with a ruler. Then he became more and more courageous and even touched it with his hands. Finally, he simply asked the helicopter operator to give him a safety rope and lower himself onto the balloon.

After he performed a series of operations that were difficult for the US military to understand, he sent a signal asking the US military to send him back.

"I think I kind of get it."

Richard said.

"This balloon is made based on a perfect topological structure, which theoretically cannot be artificially manufactured. Based on this structure, it can perfectly displace all surrounding forces and transfer them to the surrounding air, which is a perfect defense."

The US military doesn't care how powerful the balloon is; what they care about is how to destroy this broken thing.

"Can you please get to the point directly? Is there any way to destroy it?"

"I don't know, this thing was made by Jiang Chen."

Jiang Chen! It's that Jiang Chen again!
As soon as they heard Jiang Chen's name, the American soldiers gnashed their teeth in hatred.

It was Jiang Chen's plane that defeated them over the ocean.

It was this Jiang Chen who took advantage of the situation and turned the research that they invested tens of billions of dollars into nothing.

It was this Jiang Chen who made the United States look disgraced and lose face in the international community.

It can be said that in their eyes, Jiang Chen is a symbol of unforgivable evil.

“I knew it was this guy.”

The American army was furious.

"But have you only tried to destroy with weapons?"

Researcher Richard looked puzzled.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" "Are you American soldiers so reckless and brainless? Have you ever thought that since you can get on the balloon, you can get something heavy to pull it down, or just fly a bigger transport plane and put the whole balloon in it? Have you really never thought about it?"

Richard said.

The American military felt ashamed when they heard this.

"Ahem, don't mention that kind of thing anymore."

However, these people probably didn't expect that their every word and action was recorded by Jiang Chen.

Of course, it’s just a recording, not a video.

It makes sense to carry some recording equipment on the balloon, right? Anyway, it's not recording your national secrets, so there's nothing to be afraid of, right?
As long as there is no camera on the balloon, Jiang Chen and his team will be on the moral high ground, while the other party will become a villain who is making a fuss and acting unreasonably.

This is exactly the effect Jiang Chen wants.

"Ha, that's really funny."

"Are you American soldiers so reckless and brainless? Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

"The way these two talk is like crosstalk."

Around Jiang Chen, some of his friends who had time were also watching.

When they saw that the US military had tried everything but failed to destroy the balloon, or even change its direction, and finally turned to scientists for help but was criticized, everyone looked at the US military like they were clowns and thought they were a disgrace.

"It's okay, there are more fun things to come."

Jiang Chen said.

While doing business with certain people, he made them pay happily and distanced himself from Jiang Chen, making others think that he had infiltrated the United States and stole the money.

Once these recordings are made public, people all over the world can hear them.

In an instant, all kinds of sarcastic words flooded the sky.

"I'm really ashamed that there are people like this in the United States."

"This is so funny. Is this how the United States is?"

"Reckless and brainless, only using violence to solve problems."

Even the American military is criticized by American civilians without hesitation.

In their eyes, Richard is like a taciturn but very capable scientist, which just fits the type of personality that the United States likes.

The American army was in a miserable state, being criticized and scolded, and being regarded as a symbol of incompetence and violence. They were so angry that they wanted to have a real duel with Jiang Chen.

As for the rebuttal? As soon as a few US military accounts said that they protected American civilians, they were immediately silenced by the attacks.

"What did you protect?"

"I don't see you protecting us, but I see you invading other countries."

"Protect? Do you mean provoke the Dragon Nation and get beaten up?"

The balloon incident is over, everyone just laughed it off.

Generally speaking, that incident did not have much impact. At this time, Jiang Chen heard some new news.

His subordinates have already reported the progress to Jiang Chen regarding the missile defense system.

Now, it is no longer just about completing the initial manufacturing, but most of the work has been done.

"Yeah, well done."

Jiang Chen praised.

Next, he planned to go to a nearby place for inspection.

That place is not far from Yanjing and can be reached in just a few dozen minutes.

As soon as he got off the car, a group of people surrounded him and all their eyes were on him.

"It's Jiang Chen!"

"Brother Yi is here too!"

"Why are you so excited? Do you want him to know how well you did?"

"Hehe, maybe."

The people on the construction site laughed.

They don't have to move bricks and lay plaster themselves, they can leave that kind of work to robots.

Even things like taking real-time measurements to ensure that there are no deviations in the construction process can be handed over to artificial intelligence, and they don't have to worry about it.

They just need to drive the huge robot to complete the project and feel their infinite power.

In the mecha, they are no longer powerless students, but Titans who can change the landscape and shape the world at will. Who doesn't like this feeling? Many people are vying to drive for a while longer, but no matter whether they are men or women, they will be forced to get off.

Everyone wants the chance to drive this robot. Even if you are a rich second-generation, no one will give in if you are willing to pay.

As for the rest of the people, they will supervise the robots on the construction site to ensure that the robots are running normally. If something goes wrong, they will take the robots away.

Only when robots cannot be used, such as on narrow mountains, are people allowed to go up and solve the problem.

Now, each of them is quite leisurely. Some are basking in the sun, taking a walk, and some are sitting in the sentry post, drinking happy fat house water and enjoying the air conditioning.

Everyone was excited when they saw Jiang Chen coming in person.

"Brother Yi, is there any new black technology this time?"

"Show it now, we can't wait!"

"I haven't experienced it myself before, so I didn't know you were so amazing, Brother Yi. I thought it was just exaggerated in the news. I didn't expect you to really change the way of working, and maybe even change humanity!"

"That's right. Look around. Maybe in the future, humans won't have to do all the heavy work anymore."

People shouted excitedly, wanting Jiang Chen to show them something new.

At this time, some different people also made different voices.

They came over just to thank Jiang Chen.

"Thank you so much for helping us find a good job."

"Yes, my parents always asked us what we were going to do in the future. Now I can tell them openly that I work under Brother Yi."

"Brother Yi gave me so much money. In less than two months, I paid off my family's loan."

These people are the ones who didn’t have high-end computers before and had to rent them.

They were all grateful to Jiang Chen for giving them a job opportunity, and such an easy and high-paying job. As soon as they saw Jiang Chen coming, they were the first to rush over.

"Alright, alright, everybody."

Jiang Chen raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Just now, didn't you say you wanted to see the new black technology?"

“That’s what you built.”

Jiang Chen shrugged.

"That doesn't count."

“What we want to see is what we can see right away.”

Jiang Chen yawned at what they said.

"It's okay, you'll be able to see it soon. Because the project is almost finished."

Jiang Chen said.

Next comes the final step of the project: power on and trial operation.

Both pipelines and equipment are placed in perfect locations.

Accurate to the millimeter, the error does not exceed 0.0001 cm.

At this precision, all equipment works perfectly.

After power is turned on, the device starts immediately. (End of this chapter)
