160: Strategic stealth bomber - Silver Star aircraft

"Miyamoto, at our current speed, how much longer until we reach Africa? We've been traveling for so many days, I feel like my body is starting to mold," Tojo Seigoro asked while the two were eating.

"It should take another four or five days. Tojo, you're from the army, so it's normal not to be used to life at sea. However, the time for you to show your skills is coming soon. An Country is a great place, with an area of over two million square kilometers and abundant resources. With this place, our Great Neon Empire will surely be able to restore the glory of the last century!" Miyamoto Ryuichi replied.

"Yosh, Miyamoto's vision aligns perfectly with my own. Come, let's have a drink together!" Tojo Seigoro was also very excited by what was said, picking up his glass to toast with Miyamoto Ryuichi.

However, just at that moment, the Kaga helicopter carrier they were on suddenly erupted with piercing alarm sirens.

Miyamoto Ryuichi and his companion were startled and stood up, and an adjutant rushed in from outside saying, "Commander Miyamoto, there is an enemy attack!"

"What exactly is going on? Explain clearly!" Miyamoto Ryuichi hurriedly demanded.

"Boom, boom, boom! Bang, bang, bang!" Just then, before the adjutant could answer, deafening explosions had already erupted outside.

The group hurried toward the deck.

Upon reaching the deck, Miyamoto Ryuichi could hardly believe his eyes. He saw that at least five ships on the sea had already been bombed, with flames shooting into the sky. The most heavily damaged frigate had been blown in two, and the water was full of naval soldiers who had jumped overboard to escape.

"Baka yaro, who can tell me what the hell is going on!!" Miyamoto Ryuichi roared, his eyes filled with rage.

At this moment, a naval colonel replied tremblingly, "Commander Miyamoto, our fleet was bombed by aerial bombs, but these bombs seemed to appear out of thin air. By the time we discovered them, they were already less than a hundred meters above the ships, and we didn't even have time to intercept them..."

Slap! Miyamoto Ryuichi gave the colonel who answered a loud slap across the face: "Baka, are you telling me a story? Appearing out of thin air so close above the ships, did these bombs teleport here? Turn the radar power to the maximum, investigate! It must be that the enemy has used an advanced bomber. I don't believe these bombs can just appear out of thin air!!"

"Hai!" A series of Neon naval officers immediately bowed in response.

Naturally, the bombs didn't just appear out of thin air; everything was a tactic orchestrated by Qin Yang.

After the Death Warriors were able to skillfully control the silver star aircraft, Qin Yang had the idea of bombing the Neon fleet. The internal space of this thing was not small, and it was more than enough to carry several large-yield aerial bombs. Most importantly, the silver star aircraft possessed stealth capabilities that the current Blue Star could not comprehend. Whether it was radar, satellites, or the naked eye, it could not be observed. To see it, the aircraft would have to deactivate its stealth capabilities itself. The technology of this thing was far beyond Blue Star, and for the current Blue Star, it was truly an unsolvable existence.

Thinking about it from another angle, if it were used in war, the silver star aircraft would essentially be the most advanced stealth bomber.

Holding this thought, Qin Yang decided to give it a try. Since he had the ability to strike the enemy from a distance, why bother entangling with the enemy on the ground?

Immediately, Qin Yang took a few Death Warriors and flew the silver star aircraft above the Neon fleet. What followed was exactly what had just happened. Without any surprises, the silver star aircraft circled above the Neon fleet several times without being discovered by the other side. Then, Qin Yang personally picked a few lucky ones (ships) and dropped several aerial bombs.

"Haha, this time I have a killer weapon to deal with the little devils and the USA, this feels great!"

After the bombing, Qin Yang didn't rush to leave. Instead, he watched the miserable state of the Neon navy below, and he couldn't describe how satisfied he felt. Daring to target him—if Qin Yang didn't turn Neon upside down, he would be letting the system down.

Not long after, Miyamoto Ryuichi received the report of the losses caused by this attack.

"Commander Miyamoto, this attack caused a total of four warships to be damaged, including the Izumo and Hyuga helicopter carriers, which need to return to port for major repairs. The Maya and the Seabird were completely destroyed, and there were 643 casualties..."

Listening to the string of numbers, Miyamoto Ryuichi's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. Just a few hours ago, he was still dreaming about how, after conquering a country, he would become a national hero of Neon. But who could have imagined that in such a short time, before the fleet had even reached its destination, there would be such heavy losses? He didn't even know how to face the accountability from his superiors now.

Most importantly, they hadn't even found out who had attacked them...

"Report the matter truthfully. The Izumo and Hyuga will return for repairs first, while we wait here for instructions from headquarters." Sighing, Miyamoto Ryuichi could only say this.

When the neon high command learned that the expeditionary fleet had been attacked, there was another silence. Today was truly an unlucky year for Neon. The Yasukuni Shrine had been bombed, the national bank had been robbed, and supernatural humans had appeared who held great hostility toward Neon. Added to this was the attack on the expeditionary force, making all of the neon high command feel that they were being targeted, and the force behind it was extremely powerful.

"Tell me what we should do. Should the expeditionary force continue its operation?" In a huge conference room, the Prime Minister of Neon asked the high-ranking officials sitting below.

"I believe we must continue to fight. This time, our national bank was robbed of gold and foreign currency worth over 60 billion USD. This gold and foreign currency was the cornerstone for maintaining domestic economic stability. Now that it is gone, it is very easy to cause an economic collapse, just like the economic crisis decades ago. Therefore, all we can do now is turn our internal conflicts outward, expand our territory, and use the resources of Africa to make up for our losses. This is the only correct path." One high-ranking official replied.

"Then, regarding what the expeditionary headquarters stated—that the aerial bombs appeared out of thin air near the fleet—what does everyone think?"

"What else can we think? Now that even those supernatural humans who can punch down aircraft with their bare hands have appeared, such things are not unacceptable. Mikami, how is our Gene Warrior enhancement project going? I asked those researchers, and the answer they gave, after repeatedly reviewing the footage, was that those unknown humans from that day who far exceeded the combat power of ordinary people were indeed Gene Warriors. Our top priority, the first and most important thing, is to have our own Gene Warriors. Otherwise, who among us can withstand that kind of non-human decapitation strike?" Another high-ranking official said.

The Mikami who was called out was named Mikami I, a top-tier scientist in genetics. The purpose of summoning him today was because the appearance of supernatural humans had caused these neon high command members to feel panic and unease, so they wanted him to provide a clear explanation.
