Reinforcement Panel: Tech Wars

Chapter 136 Dark Star progress is soaring!
Driving the manta ray around the Western Hemisphere, Wei Jiang caused tension among local forces wherever he passed through.

Now the information about Manta Ray and Avengers is no longer a secret, and more and more information and videos are being made public on the Internet.

Many ordinary people know about Manta Ray and Iron Man from the Avengers.

All forces have witnessed the power of Manta Ray and the Avengers Iron Man, and no force wants to have a direct conflict with the Avengers and cause unnecessary consumption.

When passing over the desert area, Wei Jiang deliberately circled above Xiaomao for several times. From the information he obtained from Hongxing, he learned that the air defense alarm in the city below was sounding and Xiaomao was on high alert.

"Red Star, what do you think Little Hat and Ugly Eagle can discuss?"

"Could it be that Ugly Eagle will enter the Small Hat area again to assist in the battle?"

In the desert area now, many forces that resisted Ugly Eagle and Small Hat have put aside their differences and united as one. All parties are cooperating in the battle. If Ugly Eagle wants to come in again, he must be prepared for the risk of unleashing a full-scale war.

The air strike assistance and intelligence assistance like in the past are no longer able to change the situation here.

"It's hard to speculate, Commander."

"But no matter what changes occur here, the attention and military capabilities of the Ugly Eagle will inevitably continue to be involved, which is good news for you and the University of East China."

This was the main reason why Wei Jiang had previous conflicts with Ugly Eagle and Little Hat in the desert area.

"Let the resistance continue to pack up the little hats."

"It's time to go. Some people have been waiting for me."

"Yes."

When the blue halo in the sky flew away to the east, the senior officials in small hats hiding in the air-raid shelters finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The whereabouts of manta rays are being tracked continuously, and people are reporting intelligence about them at all times.

The process was peaceful until the manta ray rushed into the northwest of East Da.

Ugly eagle, pentagonal building.

"General! The Black Demon aircraft has entered the territory of Dongda and started to descend!"

After hearing this, the person in charge in military uniform looked even more serious.

Does Todai intend to stop covering up the connection between the official authorities and the owner of the Black Magic aircraft?

As a senior military official of Chouying, he must think about the hidden information behind this matter.

"Mobilize reconnaissance satellites immediately!"

"I need to know everything that's going on at the University of the East."

White Bear, Smoak City, the area inside the Klin Palace that is well known to the people of Blue Star.

"Sir, the black aircraft is descending in altitude after entering the territory of Dongda."

In the magnificent room, the intelligence officer looked at the balding old man sitting behind the gold and white desk.

The old man was not tall, and the look he cast at him when he looked up made him tense his muscles involuntarily.

“It is worth noting that the East China University is currently conducting the largest army heavy equipment cluster exercise in recent years in the northwest region.”

The balding old man shook his shoulders to relieve some of the pain in his upper limbs, which were having blood circulation problems.

Having been in this position for more than 20 years, he seems to be more of an iron-blooded overlord to outsiders, but in fact he is much calmer than others think.

"Let the troops in Celia be on high alert, and the other troops should not make any unnecessary moves."

Halfway through his speech, the bald old man seemed to remember something and couldn't help but sigh.

"Intensify training with the forces of Hastan, Ustan, and Jistan to obtain more intelligence."

"Go down."

The intelligence personnel did not dare to question the bald old man's instructions. They nodded and stepped back and left the office.

The empty office left the balding old man alone sitting behind the large desk.

The huge white bear flag beside him made his body look somewhat short.

He stretched out his fingers to fiddle with the globe on the table, and after a moment he reached out to hold the globe still.

The bald old man's eyes swept across the western area of ​​the white bear. His sunken eye sockets were as calm as water, without much emotion.

If you press your finger on the globe and move it to the left, the east, west, and north will appear before your eyes.

Nearly a thousand pieces of heavy equipment gathered together, but he did not feel threatened.

The White Bears and the University of Tokyo have had a good relationship in recent years, and their positions and demands are similar on many events and interests.

The key is that both sides have a common opponent to deal with.

"Is it really yours, my Oriental friend?"

"If that's the case, it will be very difficult for me to handle it."
-
There was an East Continent Army exercise area marked on the map in front of Manta Ray, and Wei Jiang was heading there.

The flight speed decreased, and after falling from hypersonic speed, Wei Jiang could even see the flames produced by occasional explosions on the ground from a distance.

"Minister Tang, I'm leaving now. Keep your subordinates under control and don't hit me too hard. I can't handle it."

beep~

Tang Wu responded to the message very quickly, and it was obvious that he was waiting for Wei Jiang to show up.

"This battle drill is a group battle, with the armored units spread out and surrounding a large area."

"As long as you don't drop directly into the encirclement, there won't be any problems."

In the tank formation below, someone had already looked up and noticed the blue halo that suddenly appeared in the sky.

Seeing that some troops in the formation were in panic, Wei Jiang stood up from the driver's seat.

Without rushing to open the manta ray's cockpit cover, Wei Jiang leaned over and opened the iron box next to it, and a microwave transmitter that required both hands to hold appeared.

It weighs more than 20 kilograms, but Wei Jiang lifts it easily with his right hand.

Pull out a thick wire from the rear end of the microwave weapon and connect it to the interface vacated by removing the laser weapon from the left arm.

The indicator light on the microwave weapon lit up, and it successfully entered an operational state.

"Red Star, open the hatch."

The familiar sound of the airlock was heard, Wei Jiang jumped lightly, and his figure appeared on top of the manta ray.

In the infrared field of view of the Dark Star helmet, the long line of tanks on the ground can be seen very clearly.

The appearance of the manta ray caused some confusion in the team below. Wei Jiang even saw some soldiers pointing their individual anti-aircraft weapons at him.

"Very good, you dare to fight."

Wei Jiang jumped up lightly, and his black figure fell like a huge rock, crashing into the tank formation with a bang.

In order to protect the handheld microwave transmitter, Wei Jiang held the transmitter with both hands when he landed on the ground and half-crouched on the ground to buffer the inertia.

In the dark night, as dust rose, there were 3 or 4 tanks around Wei Jiang, hurriedly turning their guns.

Listening to the familiar and friendly Chinese voices, these soldier brothers spoke in a hurry.

"Get away from him, quickly!"

"At this distance, we dare not launch a heavy fire attack!"

Under the helmet, Wei Jiang raised the corners of his mouth. He did not stay where he was. With the help of the power of his battle suit, he took a step forward and moved quickly.

He raised the microwave transmitter in his hand and fired a high-power microwave at the nearest tank.

After a slight buzzing sound, the rotating turret of the target tank quickly stopped.

A panicked sound was faintly heard from the tank in the night wind. Wei Jiang couldn't help but chuckle when he heard it.

"efficient!"

[Enhancement Task: 302/1000]

The numbers on the red translucent panel in front of him jumped, and the statistics of the enhanced task were updated.

Defeat number +1!

With only one person against 1 heavy tanks, as long as the tanks can be paralyzed, Wei Jiang is confident that he can use the flexibility of the Dark Star suit to fight against thousands of soldiers.

"Commander, a reconnaissance drone has been launched and is gathering towards your location."

"Understood. Don't worry about it. It should be Tang Wu's observation camera."

Without stopping, Wei Jiang held up the microwave weapon and quickly moved through the tank formation, shooting beams of high-power electromagnetic microwaves at every tank he passed.

Wei Jiang silently counted +1, +1 in his mind. The electronic equipment inside each tank left behind by Wei Jiang was damaged to varying degrees, causing the tanks known as the king of land warfare to be paralyzed on the spot.

Faced with the armored men who suddenly broke into the exercise area, the soldiers of the University of Tokyo panicked and then quickly organized a counterattack.

"The other party has special weapons, get away from them as soon as possible!"

"As long as we keep our distance, the opponent's weapons will become ineffective."

On the other side, the officers of each battalion reacted quickly as they watched the red dots representing vehicles and tanks on the screen in front of them dim. "Infantry, spread out and attack with individual anti-tank weapons and heavy weapons."

"Contact headquarters, quickly!"

The sound of dense bullet shooting followed Wei Jiang closely, and he had to keep moving at all times.

He was not afraid of bullet attacks, but he had to dodge the heavy firepower from individual soldiers that came at him from time to time.

Along Wei Jiang's moving trajectory, the sounds of artillery fire and explosions were endless. Except for the area where he was, other exercise troops and tanks were dispersing quickly to avoid being trapped in their formation by Wei Jiang.

Their strategy was correct, but what they didn't know was that the Dark Star suit's movement speed was not slower than theirs.

Every time before the tank left the formation, Wei Jiang would raise his microwave attack to hit the tank.

In a makeshift combat command room, Tang Wu and a group of people with very different temperaments stood in front of several projection screens.

On the leftmost screen, a red number is increasing rapidly.

"27."

Seeing this number, Tang Wu felt both distressed and shocked.

It’s a pity that 27 tanks need to be returned to the factory for repairs, which costs a lot of money.

Tang Wu turned his head and looked at the screen on the right, on which was projected the front-line live scene.

The picture was taken from the air. In the infrared field of vision, a figure was moving at an incredibly fast speed. Every time it paused, a dim light would light up in front of the other person, and then the red number on the left curtain would increase by 1!

Tang Wu, who was in mixed emotions, hadn't said anything yet when someone behind him exclaimed repeatedly.

"Oh my god, how is this possible?!"

"Microwave weapons require a large amount of continuous power supply. From the beginning to now, microwave weapons have been launched at least 30 times!"

The gray-haired old man turned his head to Tang Wu in shock, hoping that Tang Wu could reveal more information to him.

This group of people were temporarily invited to this desert by the military.

When a group of scientists and weapons experts were asked to participate in combat exercises and sign confidentiality agreements, they only thought that the military wanted to test the performance of weapons and equipment.

The sudden intrusion of a black figure made them realize that things were not as simple as they had expected.

Only then did they remember a sentence in the confidentiality agreement they had signed earlier.

"Any information you see or hear during the mission must be kept strictly confidential."

"For 30 years after accepting the mission, all personnel involved in the mission will be subject to close military surveillance and protection."

"How can he be so fast?!"

"I clearly saw him get hit, and an anti-tank shell even exploded next to him a minute ago. Why does he look like he's fine?"

Such exclamations never stopped in the operations room. Looking at the red number on the left screen growing to nearly 100, Tang Wu turned sideways to look at the scientists who were already scratching their heads due to their thirst for knowledge.

"Quiet, everyone."

"Your presence here means that the forces trust you."

"What you need to do now is not to yell!"

Tang Wu pointed to the frontline battle scene and said solemnly:

"Observe him, analyze him, and try to get more information about this equipment."

"This is your mission."

Tang Wu twisted his body and pointed at the red number next to him that was still growing.

"You have also seen the fighting ability of this figure."

"If Dongda has military equipment like this, who else on Blue Star can threaten us?!"

Looking at the changing expressions of these smart people in front of him, Tang Wu understood that these people had already seen the weirdness of this combat exercise.

"Don't tell me your guesses. I won't admit them."

"At the same time, I hope you keep all your speculations to yourself and don't let anyone else know except yourself."

"Understand?"

Tang Wu's voice was low and serious when he finished speaking.

This group of technical experts who came to observe the exercise all passed the background check and stance test with high scores.

But he must not miss out on what he should emphasize.

"Understood, Minister."

"Ok."

“But, Minister.”

Seeing someone wanted to ask something, Tang Wu raised his hand to stop them.

"I'm sorry, I can't say anything."

"Some of you have been exposed to the Sky Soldier Project."

Tang Wu glanced at some of the faces in the crowd. The individual power suit technology received from Red Star was being researched and developed by this group of people.

"If you can learn some ideas from this figure's battle, that's what I would most like to see."

After a pause and a look at the red number that had increased to 103, Tang Wu turned around in silence and stopped talking.

In an instant, a group of scientists and weapons experts in the war room looked at each other, staring at the infrared images on the screen and discussing in low voices.

[Enhancement Task: 417/1000]

The numbers on the enhanced panel continued to increase. The Dark Star Battle Suit gave Wei Jiang flexibility and strength, allowing him to move freely in the tank formation.

Except for the occasional stop attack, some bullets cannot be avoided and can only be resisted.

As of this moment, Wei Jiang is in good condition.

Even in the middle, in order to prevent the East University soldiers from being accidentally injured by stray bullets, Wei Jiang would use the Dark Star battle suit to help intercept possible stray bullets.

Run, shoot, turn and keep running.

From the beginning to now, slowly, the officers of the Tokyo University exercise force began to discover clues.

This guy who suddenly broke into the exercise area did not attack the soldiers as the legend said.

So far, apart from some unlucky people who fell and got injured or were accidentally hit by their own fire, there have been no serious injuries or deaths at the scene.

"What on earth is this guy going to do?"

"Captain, what should we do?"

Faced with the adjutant's question, he, as the battalion commander of the third battalion under the 165th Brigade, didn't know how to answer.

"What can be done?"

"It says above that this is a live-fire exercise!"

"Do you understand the drill? We're going to attack!"

"Since this damn guy broke in and attacked us, we must fight back!"

"Isn't he awesome?!"

"Keep attacking!"

"I just don't believe that I can't get rid of him!"

The adjutant looked at the battalion commander's frustration and indignation, and responded loudly:

"Yes! Fuck him!"

Similar situations occurred in different troops within the exercise area.

Our superiors have already said that this is a combat exercise, so let’s continue!
Never mind that the opponent has become a stranger. Now that the fight is really going on, they don’t have time to care about this.

Their superiors have given the order, so they just need to attack with all their might!

Wei Jiang looked at the task progress which had grown to 478 and glanced sideways at a soldier who was standing in a daze not far to the left.

The red light on the visor of the Dark Star battle suit was eerie, and Wei Jiang clearly saw the other party take a step back.

"Red Star, pay attention to your surroundings. I'll be here for a while."

"Yes!"

As he stepped on the ground, gravel and sand were blown up, and Wei Jiang had already rushed out.

All the tanks and combat vehicles in the area behind him were paralyzed, and he needed new prey.

In the darkness, there were more huge metal creatures waiting for him. Wei Jiang had never been as hungry as he was at this moment.
