83: Chapter 83 The First Shot

In an instant, 31 of Chen Yu’s alien spaceships arrived in the offshore waters of the Iron Ore Field.

Here, eight United States carrier strike groups were gathered, deterring any nations that wished to compete for the Iron Ore Field.

Chen Yu’s 31 spaceships flew very low and did not employ optical or radar stealth, so they were quickly discovered by the United States aircraft carrier.

Inside the USS Vinson’s command center, the radar observer exclaimed:

“Captain, unidentified flying objects detected, approaching directly from our front. There are 31 targets!”

McHale quickly moved to the radar display and immediately saw 31 small dots shining with white light.

After looking at the display, he walked to the window and looked at the distant sky.

Sure enough, a row of unidentified flying objects was floating there.

McHale’s eyes widened, and he said incredulously:

“What the hell is that!”

The 31 alien spaceships slowly approached the United States carrier group.

Soldiers and captains on the carrier group all stood on the deck, staring in disbelief at the 31 sci-fi-looking spaceships in the sky.

McHale instructed the communications officer:

“Send out radio call requests to the other side, transmit on all frequencies!”

The communications soldier acknowledged the order and immediately aimed the antenna at the unidentified flying objects, sending out call requests.

Inside the landing craft command center.

[Captain, the USS Vinson below is requesting to speak with you. Should I connect?]

“Connect it. Let’s hear what they have to say.”

[Understood, connected.]

Then a nervous voice came from the other side.

“He… Hello! I am Rear Admiral McHale, Captain of the United States USS Vinson. May I ask which country’s air force you belong to?”

“I am Chen Yu!”

With just four words, McHale’s heart trembled. He had, of course, heard of Chen Yu’s name.

It was his Huanyu Technology Company that had previously developed the Bullet aircraft, which had given the United States such a headache.

“Ah, you are Chen Yu, then are you representing Yanxia to seize our Iron Ore Field?”

Chen Yu was utterly amused by McHale’s words!

“Mr. Captain, first, I must correct what you just said. This Iron Ore Field was originally the inalienable property of my Yanxia. It was my Yanxia that first negotiated with our African brothers, and we have already signed a contract. You previously interfered and took 30%, and now you are forcing our African brothers to sign unequal, exclusive treaties. How did this Iron Ore Field truly become yours?”

“Mr. Chen Yu, I don’t understand what you are saying. I am now sternly warning you to quickly fly your aircraft away from this sea area. The United States has already taken over here. If you do not wish to provoke a war, please leave immediately!”

“Hahaha, war? Do you think I’m afraid?”

“Hmph, Mr. Chen Yu, your Yanxia does not dare to go to full-scale war with us. Your economy still heavily relies on our United States and my allies. Furthermore, your current military strength is far inferior to ours. Although I don’t know what these dozens of aircraft of yours are, we now also possess powerful weapons that are difficult for you to comprehend. Please do not try to provoke the dignity of my United States!”

Chen Yu smiled faintly. This McHale was truly confident!

“Then there’s nothing to discuss, is there? However, I can give you one last chance. Leave here yourselves and return the Iron Ore Field to our Yanxia. I can spare all your United States Navy. Otherwise, Sakura Country’s fate will be the United States’ fate!”

McHale was shocked. Although they had previously speculated that the complete annihilation of the Sakura Country Navy overnight was done by Yanxia.

But they had never known how Yanxia accomplished it. Now Chen Yu admitted it himself.

“Mr. Chen, Sakura Country is a firm lackey of my United States. If you treat them like this, we, their master, certainly will not stand idly by!”

“Mr. Captain, you said it! Then we can only go to war!”

The communication was cut off by Chen Yu.

Inside the USS Vinson’s command center, McHale immediately gave an order.

“Immediately lock onto the targets in the sky and shoot them down with missiles!”

“Yes, Captain!”

Instantly, the destroyers within the carrier strike group received the order.

Missiles quickly locked onto Chen Yu’s 31 alien spaceships in the sky.

[Captain, we have been locked on by missiles. The missile yield is temporarily unable to cause damage to the spaceships.]

“Heh heh, this is me standing here, letting you hit me, and you still can’t kill me, haha!”

Suddenly, on the sea, dozens of Aegis destroyers launched dozens of missiles, trailing long plumes of exhaust, heading straight for Chen Yu’s 31 spaceships in the sky.

Chen Yu did not take any defensive measures. Since these missiles could not harm his spaceships, he would let these short-sighted United States people see.

Their weapons were completely useless against him, which would further deter these shameless United States people.

McHale stood on the deck, staring intently at the sky.

Seeing dozens of Sidewinder air-to-air missiles shoot up from his fleet.

Heading straight for the spaceships hovering in the sky, a ferocious smile appeared on his face.

“Haha, go to hell!”

The missiles instantly hit the targets in the sky!

Boom! Boom!

Explosions erupted in the air. Every missile accurately hit its target.

“Hahahaha, they didn’t even dodge! Were they scared stiff by my United States missiles and forgot to run away?!”

McHale laughed loudly at the sky.

However, his laughter gradually froze in mid-air, because the explosion smoke slowly dissipated.

The imagined scene of the spaceships being shot down did not occur. Instead, they remained motionless in their original positions.

It seemed as if the missile explosions just now were like setting off firecrackers on these spaceships.

At this moment, all the United States soldiers on all the warships of the carrier group stared dumbfounded at this bizarre scene in the sky.

McHale was trembling all over at this moment. Those were dozens of powerful missiles.

Yet they had no effect on these flying objects. How hard must their shells be? Could it be…

McHale immediately thought of some of the weapons they currently had in hand, manufactured with alien technology.

Could Chen Yu’s spaceships also be built with alien technology?

McHale immediately returned to the carrier command center and ordered the communications soldier to immediately contact Humphries at the base.

He wanted to inform him of the situation here and have him dispatch weapons with alien technology to deal with Chen Yu’s spaceships.

The communications soldier quickly contacted the newly built United States base in Africa.

“Please immediately connect me with Secretary Humphries!”

“Captain McHale, I am Humphries.”

“Mr. Secretary, we encountered an interception by aircraft led by Chen Yu of Huanyu Technology near the coast. The other side has 31 objects similar to spaceships, and our missiles are not effective against them. I suspect the other side has also adopted alien technology. Please quickly send us support!”

“What? It’s that Chen Yu again. Has he come in person?”

“He should be in those spaceships!”

“Good, Chen Yu, you’ve finally come. This time we have alien technology weapons. You won’t escape!”

Humphries knew that the person who massacred United States President Biden and that cabinet’s high-ranking officials was Chen Yu.

Now that they also possessed alien technology, they vowed to seek revenge on Chen Yu!
