In space 36,000 kilometers above the ground, the geostationary satellite of Dream Island began to deform. The protective shield beneath the satellite opened, revealing the densely arranged and strangely shaped missiles inside. There were as many as 60 missiles, but their shapes were somewhat strange, with big heads and small bodies, completely opposite to the earthly design of missiles with small heads and long bodies.

The satellite system of Dream Island monitored the flight condition of the US intercontinental missiles, continuously transmitting the missile's flight data to the geostationary satellite control center. Then, these four “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles finally left the Earth's atmosphere and entered outer space. From this moment on, the missiles entered the second stage: the rocket boosters separated from the warhead, and the warhead began its unpowered suborbital flight phase. After reaching this stage, the “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles would not change their flight trajectory.

The satellite system of Dream Island, using the latest detection methods along with the supercomputing power of the Artificial Intelligence “Dream,” thus even though the US “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles had entered space, separated from their rocket boosters, and reached speeds of four times the speed of sound, and even after deploying various electronic countermeasures such as metallic balloons, aluminum foil chaff, and full-size decoy warheads, they were still tightly tracked by Dream Island's satellite.

Then one could see the missile launchers on the geostationary satellite of Dream Island loosening, with the bottom eight missiles detaching and entering space. The missile tails then ignited, accelerating in midair, and with flashes of fire, those eight missiles rapidly flew towards their target below.

The missiles launched by Dream Island's geostationary satellite, due to their initial relative speed being zero, needed to accelerate and change direction, so they were ignited after launch. With the thrust provided by the tails, the eight missiles gained speed rapidly in the vacuum of space, quickly accelerating to more than 20 times the speed of sound.

When the eight anti-ballistic missiles had just been launched, they were instantly detected by US reconnaissance satellites due to the tail flames. However, as their speed broke through 20 times the speed of sound, US satellites lost track of them.

The US commander, noticing this, expressed his concern, “Mr. President, Dream Island's geostationary satellite is a space-based anti-ballistic missile platform. They have just launched eight anti-ballistic missiles. Although we haven't calculated their flight trajectory yet, it's certain that they aim to intercept our intercontinental missiles.”

The US President said, “Do you think our intercontinental missiles are that easy to intercept?”

The US military commander replied, “I have great confidence in our 'Minuteman 3′ intercontinental missiles. The only chance they could be intercepted is during the boost phase just after launch. Once they enter space, it becomes impossible to intercept them.”

The US President said, “If they can't be intercepted, then what are you worried about? Let's just wait and see.”

So the US military commander fell silent, focusing on the dynamic simulation and the changing data on the screen.

In space, Dream Island's anti-ballistic missiles accelerated under the tremendous thrust. Their speed increased rapidly, soon breaking through 50 times the speed of sound and reaching a terrifying speed of 100 times the speed of sound. And their speed hadn't yet peaked; they were further accelerated to an unprecedented 200 times the speed of sound.

With Earth's materials, it was impossible to create something that could fly at 200 times the speed of sound. However, Dream Island had the Black Gold Element. With the addition of this element, the missile bodies of Dream Island saw a significant increase in strength, reaching a terrifying level. In the absence of air resistance in space, they managed to fly at a super high speed of 200 times the speed of sound.

The United States believed that their ballistic missiles could not be intercepted, mainly because of the missiles' extremely high speeds in space. But they never expected the appearance of a high-speed missile capable of flying at 200 times the speed of sound. Under the attack of such high-speed missiles, the 4-times-the-speed-of-sound velocity of American intercontinental missiles in space was nothing but insignificant.

American “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles had entered outer space, moving at high speeds due to inertia when suddenly, with a flash of light in the space above, four strangely shaped missiles flew down at an extreme speed, hitting the four “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles accurately and causing a violent explosion in space, completely destroying them.

Yan Fei in the drone had been closely monitoring this space-based missile interception operation, worried that the United States might launch nuclear weapons at Dream Island. But after noticing the successful interception of the missiles, and that there was no massive nuclear explosion, he finally felt at ease. Although the United States seemed fierce in appearance, they had shown restraint and did not use the most dangerous nuclear weapons. The warheads on the intercontinental missiles carried only conventional weapons.

In the US operational command center, the lights representing the four “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles suddenly dimmed, signaling that these four “Minuteman 3” intercontinental missiles had lost communication with the ground.
