Chapter 321 Unbelievable

Arlington, USA.

It was at the end of the night, and in the hot summer weather, the harsh chirping of cicadas seemed to disturb people's dreams.

Inside the five sharp-edged buildings, the brightly lit dead silence was broken by a rapid siren.

In the NRO's global satellite monitoring system, dense red light spots are flashing at this time. They are unique signs of detecting abnormally high-speed flying objects and appear on the global map.

The burly middle-aged white man in camouflage uniform crossed his arms, his eyes showing a hint of solemnity and surprise.

The old Mediterranean man in charge of technical analysis was also very surprised. While calculating with a ballpoint pen, he muttered: "Oh, buy it! How did they do it?"

"Doctor, this thing looks familiar." The young assistant of the old Mediterranean man looked at the detailed satellite surveillance picture and felt a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Dr. Ron said angrily: "Georgia, are you kidding? I have been doing satellite data analysis for decades and I don't even know what technology the other party uses. Have you ever seen this kind of technology? You must not be able to play games. You are stupid. Bar?"

Play games? Play games! That’s right, it’s a game. Georgia immediately reacted: “I know, this thing is similar to the Iron Curtain of Red Alert!”

"Red Alert? Iron Curtain? Get out!" Dr. Ron became a little angry.

However, the person in charge of the NRO, the burly middle-aged white man, waved his hand to stop Dr. Ron: "Doctor, you might as well listen to the opinions of young people. Georgia, tell me about the so-called Iron Curtain."

Georgia, who was granted amnesty, breathed a sigh of relief and said with a slightly excited tone: "This is a defense technology in Red Alert. The specific principle is like this..."

After explaining for a while, maybe because she was afraid that the head of the NRO and Dr. Ron would not understand, Georgia opened her laptop and logged into the official website of the game developer Red Alert. On the official website of Westwood Company, she found the details of the Iron Curtain technology. introduce.

Although part of the introduction was obvious to be nonsense at first glance, Dr. Ron and the head of the NRO still saw a lot of ideas from it.

"The electric field and electrothermal reaction will destroy passing flying objects? Doctor, what is your opinion?"

After a moment of silence, Dr. Ron replied with a troubled look on his face: "Director Levis, I need a moment. After all, this is the first time this kind of thing has appeared in reality."

Levis expressed his understanding: "OK, but please complete the technical analysis as soon as possible. Our Minister of Defense may not be able to sleep again tonight."

"I can't sleep either." Dr. Ron also shook his head and smiled bitterly.

In the past two years, they have been frightened by too many things. The last North Atlantic target ship incident, coupled with the launch vehicle that can enter orbit in a single stage, have stimulated their sensitive nerves.

If it weren't for these threats, Americans wouldn't be so peaceful.

In the confrontation in the ore market alone, if there was no strong deterrent, a more intense confrontation might have broken out.

Recently, we have seen that China is also making small moves in the energy market, and those capital giants are ready to take action again.

After all, the oil card and the food card are their core means of controlling the world. If these two cards are broken, the possibility of North America falling from its position as the world's leader will skyrocket.

In order to keep their position as the boss, they have prepared for the worst and are even making related plans.

As one of the managers within the intelligence system, Levi even knew that the capital giants and the military-industrial complex were already discussing some very dangerous things.

Recently, the United States has approved many secret plans and launched three very large plans, namely: "Gaia Project", "Prometheus Project", and "Artemis Project".

Project Gaia is to restart the underground defense projects of the Cold War era within the Rocky Mountains, and to strengthen and expand them as a doomsday shelter.

As for the Prometheus Plan, only a group of capital giants know that this plan is to create a backup area. If North America and Western Europe are abandoned, they can make a comeback in the backup area.

There are currently three backup areas that have been selected, and they are already secretly under preparation and construction.

The last "Artemis Plan" is to establish a lunar colony and use the moon as another escape route.

In addition to various other large and small plans, these capital giants have made a lot of moves in recent times.

In response, there was this large-scale test of the canopy interception system.

Just when Levi and Dr. Ron were discussing, a white man with a hooked nose and a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks walked in with bloodshot eyes.

"Tell me! What's the bad news again?"

"Have they developed a more powerful missile?" Sterling asked with a gloomy face.

"NO, it's a new defense system that can intercept many missiles." After Levis finished speaking, he picked up a document from the table and handed it over.

Sterling grabbed it and after flipping through it roughly, his face turned green and white: "Damn it, how did they develop this kind of defense system?"

He was frightened and very angry. He walked around impatiently with the document and cursed:

"What are our scientists doing? With an annual budget of more than 500 billion, there is no way to develop high-energy explosives. Are they waiting for the enemy's spacecraft to appear over Washington before they can do anything serious? Fake Squid!"

Levis on the side also didn't know what to say.

They have indeed been under great pressure in the past few years. Although a lot of money has been invested, the problem is that the United States has spread too much. It has to spend a lot of money on bases and military garrisons around the world every year.

The actual funds spent on scientific research are not as much as imagined, and competition within the military-industrial complex has further diluted the funds for various projects.

There is no way to crack N20 or develop metallic hydrogen in a short time, and we cannot blame scientists for not working hard.

A Harvard all-nitrogen material synthesis laboratory was too hasty in March this year, leading to an experiment error. Five researchers were killed on the spot and more than a dozen others were seriously injured.

In fact, these scientists are also very helpless. They have tried their best, but their opponents failed.

After yelling and cursing in the satellite monitoring room for several minutes, Sterling sat down to calm down.

Levi poured him a cup of coffee: "Minister of Defense, we will master this technology sooner or later."

"I hope so! I feel like I have never had a good day since I became the defense minister. If this continues, I will have a nervous breakdown." Sterling rubbed his temples, then picked up the coffee and took a sip.

He quickly compiled a report and reported it to Levis and Sterling.

It was another night of excitement.
