Chapter 882 - The Unseen Ghost (1/2)

“Can I see Mr. Jiang Chen? In light of the recent security situation in Los Santos, I have some security adjustments…”

“I’m sorry, he’s already rested. If you have any questions, you can speak to me.”

Standing at the door of the embassy, Xia Shiyu declined Lawrence’s request to visit. He was in the desert of Nevada, more than dozens of kilometers away.

Lawrence frowned slightly and eyed the embassy.

“This is very important. I hope you treat it seriously.”

“He gave me full power to deal with it,” Xia Shiyu replied with an uncompromising tone

Since this Ms. CEO already said that, Lawrence no longer persisted. He nodded, handed the files over, and left the embassy.

Xia Shiyu scanned the documents. They detailed the recent security situation and the FBA’s adjustment of Jiang Chen’s travel security work.

According to the description in the documents, it seemed Jiang Chen’s security level increased?

As night arrived, Nevada’s desert returned to quietness. Jiang Chen, who was wearing a kinetic skeleton, had returned to the modern world. He was still behind a bush. Silence surrounded him, leaving only the wind blowing.

Lights illuminated Area 51. High-powered searchlights scanned the military base.

Today’s night was no different from the day before. All soldiers remained in their positions like before. Even the most meticulous soldiers, staring at the endless desert, couldn’t help but feel tired and blank out.

No one noticed that an invisible ghost was approaching…

There was a gust of wind, and a soldier leaning against the checkpoint sneezed and rubbed his nose. The soldier standing across from him yawned and adjusted the rifle on his body. At this point, no one would check the post. Their standing posture was casual, at least not as professional as if they were in front of cameras.

However, at that moment, the soldier who sneezed looked around.

“Crony, did you notice anything?”

“What? A hare?” The drowsy Crony instantly woke up.

“No, it could be an illusion.”

“Sh*t, we’re about to get off our shift. Don’t play with me…”

Upon hearing the soldiers’ conversation, Jiang Chen was relieved.

The weakness of the optical illusion was being in environments where the optical difference would be obvious. It was difficult to achieve perfect invisibility, and walking in the sand would leave footprints. In order to avoid being discovered, he chose the road and directly entered from the checkpoint.

As for the lighting problem, he could only walk against the edge of the building.

Judging by the number of patrols, this military base was indeed one of the highest security military bases in the nation. In addition to those patrols with rifles at each corner of the base and invisible snipers, Jiang Chen also noticed helicopters flying by often.

He didn’t dare to turn off his optical illusion for a single moment.

Fortunately, decades-long peace and stability made people lower their guard at this base with the highest security level. Jiang Chen didn’t encounter any trouble along the way. He successfully managed to just sneak past the patrols like a ghost.

At such a large base, of course, he couldn’t just wander around like a headless chicken. In the photographs taken in advance, Jiang Chen marked the buildings worthy of investigation on the map. These buildings included the large radio telescope, the fighter aircraft hangar, and several houses that he couldn’t identify from the outside.

At the airport, Jiang Chen quietly slipped into a hangar.
