87: Chapter 87 First Confrontation

The level 2 civilization's triangular spaceship rapidly sped towards Africa in the atmosphere at a speed of Mach 30.

Due to its extreme speed, it created friction with the air, appearing like a meteor, with a speed roughly comparable to the Chang'e-6 return capsule.

At this speed, flying from the United States to Africa would take less than half an hour.

At this moment, in the waters off Africa.

Inside the landing ship, the intelligent AI reminded Chen Yu:

"Captain, according to the detection satellites I've hacked, a level 2 civilization spaceship just took off from the United States' 51 Area Military Base and is currently flying towards our position at Mach 30."

Chen Yu's expression tightened, and he showed curiosity!

"Oh, does the United States have the capability to repair alien spaceships?"

"That's impossible. Even if the United States' technology is the best on Earth, repairing a level 2 civilization's spaceship would take hundreds of years."

"Then how did this alien spaceship appear? And it took off from a United States base, and now it's flying towards us. It's probably not coming with good intentions!"

"Based on my analysis, this level 2 civilization spaceship was likely not severely damaged when it crashed on Earth, and then its energy ran out over a long period. It's possible that the United States only recently activated it and replenished its energy."

Chen Yu nodded, agreeing with the intelligent AI's analysis.

"No wonder the United States has been producing so many high-tech weapons recently. Could it be that they activated this alien spaceship and obtained its technology!"

"Highly possible. I suspect this level 2 civilization spaceship has already formed some kind of cooperation with the United States. According to the habit of higher civilizations colonizing lower civilization planets, many higher civilizations, to simplify and quicken the colonization of a planet, will support the strongest race or country on that planet to help them complete the domination of the planet, and then these higher civilizations will ultimately take over."

"According to you, then the United States is now merely the lackey of that level 2 civilization!"

"Yes, perhaps the United States itself doesn't even know it!"

"As expected of an imperialistic country, once they have a chance to rule the world, they'll recklessly act as someone else's tool! However, they've encountered us! This plan is destined to fail!"

"We'll just wait here for that level 2 civilization alien spaceship to arrive. I'm truly impatient!"

Chen Yu was confident that his 31 Level 7 Civilization spaceships, though all landing ships and ordinary frigates,

would be more than capable of destroying a level 2 civilization spaceship.

Chen Yu's spaceship hovered in the sky, making no further movements.

Four aircraft carrier battle groups remained on the sea surface. McHale, on the USS Vinson aircraft carrier, had witnessed Chen Yu's spaceship annihilate their seventy to eighty alien-tech combat aircraft.

This almost made McHale wet his pants. Their proud alien weapons were like mere chickens and dogs in front of Chen Yu's spaceship.

Now, the four aircraft carriers below didn't dare to move, fearing that any movement would provoke an attack from Chen Yu.

"Use the dedicated line to contact the White House and ask them what we should do now!"

McHale told the signalman to make the call, and the internal communication was quickly connected.

"This is McHale, this is McHale. We have four aircraft carriers left, and Chen Yu's spaceship is right above us. What should we do now?"

It was Acting President Harrison who answered McHale.

"Captain McHale, this is Harrison. If Chen Yu's aircraft haven't attacked you, then don't move for now. We have already reached an agreement with the alien spaceship, and that spaceship is currently heading to your sea area. Chen Yu's aircraft cannot be a match for the alien spaceship. You can tell us what you see at the scene."

"Ah, do you mean the alien spaceship is coming to save us?"

"You could say that."

"That's great! My United States is indeed the representative of Earth's people; even the aliens choose to cooperate with us!"

McHale was instantly filled with a sense of pride. Look, look, when the aliens arrived, they only chose to cooperate with the people of the United States!

About twenty minutes passed.

"Captain, that spaceship has arrived!"

"Hmph, prepare for battle!"

Chen Yu's 31 spaceships quickly adjusted their battle formation, collectively turning to face the direction from which the level 2 civilization spaceship was approaching.

On the sea surface, McHale had already set up a high-definition live streaming camera.

He wanted to broadcast the scene of the alien spaceship destroying Chen Yu's more than 30 aircraft in real-time to the White House high-ranking officials.

McHale saw Chen Yu's 31 spaceships turn around in the sky, so he shouted to the soldier operating the camera:

"They're moving! Is the camera focused?"

"Sir, I'm a professional, trust me, I'm getting a very clear shot!"

"Good, this will be a great moment!"

McHale was very excited. This was an alien spaceship coming to save their United States Navy!

Chen Yu stood in the command room, looking at the distant sky.

Suddenly! A bright spot appeared there, likely the fire generated by friction with the air due to its extreme speed.

"Oh ho! Finally here, are we! It flew here from the United States' mainland so quickly; its speed can compete with my landing ship!"

"Captain, I've calculated its speed, roughly Mach 30. Its speed is just average."

"Compared to you, it is indeed average. I wonder what kind of weapons it uses."

"I can roughly analyze the airborne weapons of this level 2 civilization. If this is an Attack Ship, they might possess high-energy laser cannons, similar in power to the laser weapons on our frigates."

"They would cause some trouble for our spaceships when their shields are not activated. If it's just an exploration ship, then at most it will only be equipped with ordinary laser cannons, which will have no effect on our spaceships, and we can easily destroy it."

Chen Yu thought of the two quantum communications detected by the intelligent AI earlier, so he asked:

"Intelligent AI, later, can you hack into the intelligent system of that level 2 civilization spaceship? I want to know where the quantum communication signal it sent went, and whether it really contacted its home planet!"

"This is a bit difficult. I need to crack the opponent's system encryption code. Although the opponent is only a level 2 civilization spaceship, the encryption systems in the universe are the most complex codes. I need some time, and the opponent might physically isolate all signal reception when attacking us. However, I have a way to hack into its intelligent system."

"Oh! Tell me!"

"That is to directly destroy the opponent. As long as its intelligent control main unit is not damaged, we can take it back and slowly crack it."

"It seems it's impossible to capture this spaceship without damage!"

Soon, the level 2 civilization spaceship on the horizon began to decelerate. Chen Yu excitedly watched the approaching black dot.

He was very excited to finally see the true appearance of a level 2 civilization spaceship.
