123: Section 123
Seeing that the opponent's economy had plummeted and the people were suffering.
They were almost about to yield to them the next moment.
But then...
Their new type of aircraft carrier took flight, shattering all their plans.
Moreover, everyone was terrified!
They had deployed all their aircraft carriers, and now they didn't have a single aircraft carrier left at home.
Their defense level had dropped significantly!
They had originally thought that the name of their Lighthouse Country was enough to make everyone afraid to invade at will.
However, now, the situation had clearly changed!
Meanwhile, the Chief aircraft carrier Engineer, Gladstone, was scolded severely by the President.
But inside, he was very unconvinced!
According to common sense, such a heavy aircraft carrier definitely shouldn't be able to fly!
But this Lin's, they didn't play by the rules, what could he do?
There must be something fishy going on!
This kind of technology shouldn't exist!
That's it!
Gladstone had a sudden inspiration from the words the President used to scold him.
"Wait!"
"Mr. President, we cannot withdraw the aircraft carriers!"
Hearing the words of their Chief aircraft carrier Engineer, Gladstone, everyone looked at him with anger.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Did you see the opponent's flying aircraft carrier? Our aircraft carriers simply cannot compare to them!"
"I know it now, you must be a mole sent by China. It's all because of the reckless guarantees you made earlier that I felt safe deploying all our aircraft carriers!"
However, facing everyone's questioning, Gladstone forced himself to remain calm and said:
"I am not wrong!"
"China must be lying!"
"This so-called space-air aircraft carrier is fake!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions couldn't help but turn even uglier.
Now that everyone had seen it with their own eyes, this person was actually still distorting the facts.
However, Gladstone immediately added: "Mr. President is absolutely right about one thing!"
"Their space-air aircraft carrier took off without its four huge propellers even turning!"
"Think about it, is this possible? Such technology simply does not exist in the world!"
"I still maintain my previous suspicion; China made this just to scare us off. They do not have the means to truly confront us!"
"This so-called space-air aircraft carrier must be a huge smoke screen!"
"It is very likely just a prop, and it must be very light, perhaps made of materials like foam!"
"And the reason it was able to take off must be due to some deceptive support, or technology like a crane, tied with ropes and hoisted up in a place we cannot see!"
Gladstone became more and more excited as he spoke, then pointed at the stationary space-air aircraft carrier on the screen.
"Look! So much time has passed, but the position of the space-air aircraft carrier hasn't changed at all!"
"Even an airplane, at high altitude, facing air currents, would have some floating sway."
"This space-air aircraft carrier is so large that the impact of air currents should be even more severe; it's impossible for it to be this still, unless it's fixed in that spot!"
Listening to Gladstone's logical analysis, the President and most of the congressmen present had their brains freeze for a moment.
They had received too much shock during this period!
But soon, someone reacted.
"So you mean, even now, China is still deceiving us?"
"Trying to force us to retreat by using scare tactics?"
Gladstone nodded affirmatively.
"Yes!"
"This kind of project, even if they have some research, would definitely require decades of time to achieve a breakthrough!"
"Unless they have ready-made blueprints, and the explanations are very detailed, they wouldn't be able to copy it so quickly. But is this possible? It's impossible!"
"The most advanced country in the world is our Lighthouse Country, but if we haven't researched this, where would China find ready-made blueprints?"
"..."
It seemed to make sense?
In everyone's hearts, they seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope.
After all, they really didn't want to believe that China could surpass them in the military field in such a short time.
Soon.
Lighthouse Evening News, the media responsible for the live broadcast and interviews in the suburbs of Yanjing, received some intelligence from their superiors.
The reporter from Lighthouse Evening News immediately had eyes that lit up.
Amidst the questions from other media reporters who were shocked and uneasy, they spoke up and questioned:
"Our country's professionals believe that this so-called space-air aircraft carrier of China is just a model, only hoisted and fixed in the air through some smoke and mirrors, using means similar to VR."
"After all, this space-air aircraft carrier is so huge, we can only see a corner from below, it is inevitable that you have set up some mechanisms in parts we cannot see."
"May I ask the Chinese officials, what is your explanation for this?"
"..."
Wow—
Following the reporter from Lighthouse Evening News speaking up, the surrounding media fell silent.
After a while, they realized and looked at the Chinese leaders with sudden understanding.
"What? This is actually fake?"
"Just hoisted and fixed in the air, because it's too huge to film the whole thing, so there's no way to verify it?"
"I knew it! How could mere China create such a trans-era technological product!"
"Hehe, now that it's been exposed, let's see what other tricks China has!"
The foreign public who had been watching the live broadcast, after hearing these few questions, let out a huge sigh of relief.
Everyone also believed that this was indeed fake!
They just hadn't reacted earlier because they were too shocked.
Looking at more than a dozen microphones and recording devices held in front of him, Chief Yun calmly took out a pocket watch from his pocket and looked at it.
The reporter, seeing the other party directly avoid this question, was even more convinced that this was definitely fake, just a smoke screen!
However, soon after, Chief Yun put the pocket watch back and revealed a calm smile.
"Regarding this question, we really don't know how to answer."
Hearing this, the media reporters all showed excitement and smug expressions, thinking they had truly exposed China's trick.
However, Chief Yun's next sentence was:
"It just so happens that the time for the military exercise is near, and our space carrier should also set off, otherwise we will be late."
As the words fell.
The pangu space-air aircraft carrier, which had been quietly hovering in the air, suddenly erupted with an incomprehensible initial speed and started to move forward the next moment.
Boom—!!!
And as the energy and power on the hull were fully activated, the speed gradually climbed.
Before all the reporters could even react, it had already disappeared beyond the horizon!
Chapter 103: How many aircraft carriers is one space-air aircraft carrier worth? The world is panicked!!
If it was said that when this aircraft carrier first appeared, people saw those ridiculous wheels and still thought that even if it were just a giant amphibious aircraft carrier, they could still accept it.
But when they saw this space-air aircraft carrier take off, they had already started to panic.
They kept looking for reasons, wanting to prove that this space-air aircraft carrier was a smoke screen made by China to scare other countries.
But!
When this colossal object, the pangu space-air aircraft carrier, like an aerial fortress, started to fly rapidly towards the south, maintaining its hovering state.
At this moment.
The whole world panicked!
