I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 659 - 657: A Group of Mortals

"Menglong, how can you stay so calm at a time like this? These are 12 fighter jets! Fighter jets!" All of Zhang Menglong's brothers were panicking.

They were just in their twenties, with their best years and a brilliant future ahead of them. Now, a single missile could end their lives; just minutes ago, they were basking in the joy of travel, and the next second, they fell into the abyss of despair.

"Land! Hurry up and land, if we land now and hide in the ocean, we might still have a chance!"

"Right! Let's make an emergency landing at sea! I just saw plenty of life-saving equipment. Their fighter jets won't be as powerful over the sea!"

"Everyone, don't panic," Zhang Menglong reassured, "Didn't I tell you? I modified this plane at a great cost. Just 12 fighter jets? Even if it were 12 aircraft carrier fleets, I could still beat them black and blue."

"There are missiles coming!"

At that moment, though the panoramic mode, everyone saw two missiles trailing fiery tongues heading towards them. At such a high altitude, a strike by a missile would mean certain death with no hope for finding an intact body—a miracle in itself!

"Ah!" All the girls on the plane except Lu Yiyao screamed.

Although Lu Yiyao didn't know the specifics of the modifications Zhang Menglong had made to the plane, she knew him well enough to be sure he had a trump card. Plus, even if it were just a regular plane, Ye Yinye secretly protecting them would take action at once.

Therefore, panic was the last emotion they needed!

"Unlock the highest authority, activate the AT field!" Zhang Menglong didn't know to whom or what he was speaking.

"Voice band verification successful, welcome, respected Mr. Zhang, the AT field is now deploying for you."

No sooner had the electronic voice finished speaking than the two missiles appeared right in front of them. But just a meter away from the cockpit, they seemed to hit something and erupted into a violent explosion.

Two Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, some of the most powerful missiles to date!

Some had already closed their eyes, waiting for death to come, yet nothing happened—not even a slight shake or a whisper of sound.

"What's going on?" one of Zhang Menglong's brothers opened his eyes, only to see their plane completely unharmed, and not far behind them, a black mushroom cloud hovered—there had indeed been a tremendous explosion.

But this explosion hadn't hurt them at all, as if an invisible force had kept it outside the plane.

At that moment, he clearly saw a golden wall of light around the plane!

"AT field? Menglong, did you just say AT field?" Zhang Menglong's brothers, who had also been fans of anime, knew that apart from Gundam, the next big thing was Evangelion EVA.

Zhang Menglong's mention of the AT field referred to a technology from that anime series, known as the Absolute Domain.

The visualized AT field appeared as a golden, polygon-shaped enclosure. It could block almost all conventional weapons, including physical impacts and high-energy, high-temperature blasts.

In the anime's settings, unless neutralized by another AT field, no force could harm anything inside the AT field, which earned it the label of Absolute Defense!

However, this was a technology from anime—in other words, something that existed in imagination; it was likely that humans wouldn't be able to truly develop this technology for decades, if not a century.

"How about that, awesome isn't it?" Zhang Menglong smiled, "Even if their missiles were a hundred times more, they couldn't penetrate this AT field and harm us. So rest easy!"

"How did you manage this?" Zhu Mengchao exclaimed in amazement, our country's military weapon technology has advanced rapidly this year, but we couldn't have invented something like this, could we?

"No more pretending. It's time I came clean!" Zhang Menglong pulled out a bright red notebook from his pocket.

It read with a few words: Huaxia Special Weapons Senior Consultant Expert: Zhang Menglong.

"You... you are the national senior weapons consultant expert?" Although Zhu Mengchao and the others did not know what that really meant, such a title was undoubtedly shocking. They knew that Zhang Menglong was very knowledgeable in the fields of physics, chemistry, and mathematics, but since when did he become so familiar with weapons as well?

"You may not know, but the Longyin fighter jet developed by our country this time was based on my design," Zhang Menglong explained, "The strong interaction material, anti-gravity propulsion engine, and cationic polar cannon on it are all based on the theoretical and technical models I provided."

"This AT field is a technology I only recently realized. It hasn't been put into mass production yet but was only experimented on my own aircraft; however, it seems that the effects are not bad."

"You are a monster!" Zhu Mengchao now even doubted whether Zhang Menglong was a human, as he had even turned a technology that existed only in anime settings into reality.

If this thing were used in Huaxia's army, then Huaxia's military equipment could definitely be said to be invincible. Not to mention the strength of the strong interaction material, even the most advanced Sidewinder missiles wouldn't leave a mark on it, not to mention your missiles needing to reach it first!

"Everyone, don't panic; with the strength of this AT field, even if our aircraft were to collide directly with their fighter jets, only their fighter jets would be destroyed!" Zhu Mengchao said reassuringly, now confident.

Although the girls had never heard of any AT field, seeing Zhu Mengchao and Zhang Menglong so confident, they too breathed a sigh of relief.

...

"What's going on? Why haven't they been shot down?" a fighter pilot several kilometers away noticed that Zhang Menglong's aircraft was still on their radar.

"Maybe it was a misfire, let's do it again!"

"This time, let's attack all together, to ensure foolproof success!"

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!" 24 missiles once again headed towards Zhang Menglong's aircraft like a barrage.

"Expand the AT field to maximum!"

"Yes, the AT field!"

The golden shield instantly spread out around, almost enveloping the entire aircraft within a five to six-meter radius.

The missiles formed mushroom clouds upon impact, but they still did not inflict any damage to the aircraft.

"Damn it! There's something wrong with his plane!"

The first attack might have missed, but this time's volley couldn't possibly have missed because the radar data showed they hadn't changed their flight status. If they couldn't hit such a sitting duck, they didn't deserve to be called air force elites.

Suddenly, they remembered that the recently showcased Longyin fighter jet by Huaxia seemed to have displayed such formidable defensive power. Could it be that Zhang Menglong's aircraft was also made from this so-called strong interaction material?

Given Zhang Menglong's capability and wealth, such a thing seemed quite possible. He was so wealthy, he must value his life very much.

"Luckily we were prepared!"

"Electronic missile bombardment prepared!"

Having witnessed the formidable power of the strong interaction material last time, scientists worked day and night to find a method to break it, which was to force the vibration of particles to escape constraint and bombard with electrons, disrupting the balance of forces among the particles!

However, this time they miscalculated. Zhang Menglong's aircraft used even more advanced defensive technology, and the bombardment by electronic missiles, being a high-energy attack, utterly failed to penetrate his AT field!

"Alas!" Watching the 12 approaching fighter jets, Zhang Menglong shook his head, "A bunch of mortals!"
