Area 51 was an area of about 155 square kilometers, located in Lincoln County, southern Nevada, 130 kilometers southeast of downtown Las Vegas. It was part of the UA Air Force training facility. But everyone knew that this military base was definitely not what it was advertised to the public, that it was used to train the air force.
Only people with extremely high security levels and were invited by the highest levels of the military or intelligence agencies could enter the military base. Would ordinary pilots be qualified to receive training here? Red prohibition signs could be seen everywhere – "No Photography", "No Entry", and even "Authorized to Use Deadly Weapons".
Of course, there were also signs such as "Alien Presence" set up by nearby residents themselves. These ostentatious signs could attract a lot of tourists. In this capital-oriented country, there was nothing that couldn't be used to create hype.
The endless sand dunes were dotted with dried camel grass and countless cacti. Occasionally, one or two poplars could be seen, and from time to time, hares could be seen scurrying through the bushes.
A black off-road vehicle slowly stopped next to the flat and majestic sand dunes.
A few hours ago, it was no different from a brand new car, but now it was stained with a layer of gray and yellow. The door opened, and Jiang Chen got out of the car. He grabbed the travel bag from the passenger seat, threw it into the storage dimension, and narrowed his eyes to look at the top of the sand dunes.
The sky in the distance was already glowing, and in a few minutes, it would be dawn.
After crossing this mountain and walking for a few kilometers, he could see the legendary Area 51. However, Jiang Chen knew very well that although the mountain was in front of him, it was not easy to cross it on foot. The straight-line distance on the map was more than ten kilometers.
Note that this was a straight line distance!
Jiang Chen cautiously took out a special telescope, turned on the thermal imaging function, and looked around. Every year, curious UA mountaineers would break into this desert with backpacks, trying to explore the legendary Area 51.
But fortunately, he only saw a few hares.
After confirming that there was no one, Jiang Chen raised his hand and slapped the off-road vehicle. He directly threw the entire vehicle into the storage dimension, and then walked up the mountain.
Not far from Area 51 was the Nevada Test Ground, where the UA Department of Energy tested nuclear weapons. Although he didn't see any signs prohibiting him from entering, he knew very well that he was already at the edge of the most heavily guarded military restricted zone in the UA!
The slope of the sand dune was very gentle. It was not a hindrance to climb up, but it was definitely strenuous.
He walked until sunrise before he finally reached the top of the mountain.
Pulling out his binoculars, he could already see the shadow of the military outpost at the corner of the opposite valley. A few kilometers down the road was the legendary Area 51, but Jiang Chen certainly couldn't just walk in along the road.
He took out the kinetic skeleton from the storage dimension and put it on. Without activating optical invisibility, he walked down the mountain.
This wasn't a restricted military area, and the soldiers on guard couldn't keep their eyes on their binoculars all the time. From the opposite sentry post, one could only see the silhouette of the mountain at most. It was impossible to see if there was anyone on the mountain with the naked eye.
As long as Jiang Chen didn't make too much noise.
After a long time, at two o 'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Chen followed a large arc and circled to the mountain on the side of the military base. Many sensors hidden in the bushes were deployed here. If he accidentally touched them, it would immediately attract the attention of the patrol team.
However, it wasn't difficult for Jiang Chen to discover these things. Carefully avoiding all the sensors, Jiang Chen laid behind a bush and took in the entire view of Area 51.
Iron fences isolated hundreds of square kilometers of land from the desert, and large and small houses were located in this military base. In addition to tanks and armored vehicles, he could also see the runway for airplanes. At least five F35s were parked on the runway. In addition, there were some aircraft that Jiang Chen didn't know the name of but only thought they looked cool.
The layout of the buildings here was almost the same as the photos published on Google Maps, but there were still some subtle differences.
For example, the radar standing in the southeast corner of the military base attracted Jiang Chen's attention.
Rather than calling it a radar, it was better to call it a "giant bowl" embedded in the ground. On the four corners of the building stood straight suspension rods, and in the center of the suspension cables connected to each other were props that looked like launch poles.
Based on the scale on the telescope, the diameter of this giant bowl was 200-300 meters. The antenna of the radar pointed straight to the sky. After thinking for a long time, Jiang Chen didn't understand what this thing was.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Chen pressed on the side of the helmet, turned on the tactical camera function, and took a picture of the telescope.
At the same time, he also took a few close-up shots of the entire military base.
Just then, a faint buzzing sound rang in his ears, followed by a feeling of dizziness. Jiang Chen couldn't help but frown. But very quickly, his entire body relaxed, and he recovered from this sudden discomfort. The electric noise in his ears also disappeared without a trace as if it never appeared.
"What happened?"
Jiang Chen shook his head and drove away the remaining feeling of numbness. He put away the telescope and turned off the tactical camera.
He noticed that the moment he heard the electric noise, even the holographic screen on his tactical helmet showed a slight lag.
Is it EMP?
Jiang Chen instantly denied this idea.
No matter how strong the electromagnetic pulse was, it was ineffective against people. EMP simply couldn't explain the dizziness he felt at that moment. Compared to the high-energy transient current induced by high-energy particles, this feeling was more like some kind of super-strong electromagnetic wave or something else.
Putting his doubts aside, Jiang Chen confirmed the patrol route of the military base through the telescope. With Jean's power, he calculated a relatively safe infiltration route on the map.
The preparation work during the day was done. Next, he only needed to wait until it was dark before the plan could be implemented.
"I don't know how the embassy is doing," Jiang Chen whispered.
Although he said that, he was not worried at all.
If someone came to visit, Xia Shiyu could also reject it for him. Even if there were special circumstances, no one would suddenly break into the embassy of other countries.
The coordinates were set here. He left behind a camera that could transmit data across dimensions, and then he traveled to the apocalypse. The operation time was at night. He was not interested in being a real sniper and hiding behind the bushes all day.
Even at the end of October, the afternoon sun in California was very hot.
Not to mention in the desert …
