6. The Pretender
When Merlin met Flying Mountain, it was when he first realized that there was an unknown dark force hidden within S.H.I.E.L.D., and he was not sure whether Fury was trustworthy, so he did not tell the director about Flying Mountain's existence.
In the later confrontation with the Decepticon Warriors to smash and bounce the ball, Merlin also concealed the existence of B-127, that is, Bumblebee, and only handed over the wreckage of the bounce ball and the smashed ball captured alive to S.H.I.E.L.D.
Now that a long time has passed, Fury's suspicions have long been cleared.
As for the female Decepticon Crush that was captured that year, according to the information obtained by Merlin, the mechanical life should have been placed in a research laboratory, and it seems that it has been dismantled by S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists for research.
Researching and dismantling a living mechanical life has brought a lot of black technology far beyond this era to the Science and Technology Department of S.H.I.E.L.D., and these black technologies have also been learned and used by scientists.
According to Fury, a lot of black technology from mechanical life is also used on the weapon platform called "Aegis War Fortress", which has entered the end of the construction period.
Although Fury didn't say much about the mysterious "war fortress", Merlin could probably guess some.
If that thing can really be launched as scheduled, then S.H.I.E.L.D.'s current combat system will inevitably usher in a qualitative leap.
In the middle of the night, in a parking lot near the interstate on the outskirts of New York City, Fury was leaning in front of his off-road-powered GM SUV, holding a glass of iced fat house water, this time in a rare absence of the iconic trench coat, instead of a tracksuit and a black plush hat, looking like a neater tramp.
He looked around vigilantly, constantly looking at the time, waiting for Merlin's arrival.
"What's going on with this guy?"
Fury looked at his watch again, and he said:
"He's never been late, what's the problem?"
"Buzz"
A few minutes later, just as Fury was about to make another call to Merlin, a low, noisy engine sound sounded on the road not far from the parking lot, and Fury looked up to see the headlights of a heavy motorcycle painted blue in front of his eyes, and the lights were a little harsh.
On the motorcycle sat a knight, and in the midst of the gallop, the trench coat of the unclear silhouette fluttered like wings in the night.
Fury's fingers touched his waist and rested on the handle of the gun, but after a few seconds, he relaxed. Through that distinctive eye under the blindfold, Fury sees the face of the rider on the heavy motorcycle.
"Click"
The speeding motorcycle stopped in front of Fury's eyes with a beautiful swing of the tail, and Merlin, who was sitting in the car, pushed his glasses, glanced at Fury's dress, and said:
"This homeless man's disguise is good, Director, it seems that although you have been sitting in the office all these years, you are still not old."
"Hmph"
Fury snorted, he drank the fat house water in his hand, threw the cup into the trash can not far away, he looked at Merlin, and then at the beautiful blue heavy motorcycle beside him, and he asked:
"When did you start playing with this?"
"People always have to have a hobby."
Merlin glanced back at the parking lot, where a yellow Camaro sports car and a Dodge Challenger in the classic red and black color scheme were parked in the parking space behind Fury's SUV.
Seeing the two cars, Merlin nodded, and he said to Fury:
"Good, everyone is here."
"Ready?"
Fury looked left and right, and he said to Merlin suspiciously:
"It's just the two of us... Wait a minute. ”
Fury is not stupid after all, although Merlin did not tell him about flying over the mountain and bumblebees, Fury also knew about the existence of Cybertrons, he first glanced at the blue motorcycle next to Merlin, and then followed Merlin's gaze to look at the two cars parked behind him, he said:
"No wonder, I just had the feeling of being watched... Cybertrons? ”
"Wow"
At the moment when Fury's voice fell, the three Cybertambo soldiers transformed at the same time, in the slightly harsh and noisy sound of the collision of mechanical gears and metal modules, and like a slightly muffled rainstorm crashing sound, under Fury's slightly curious gaze, flying over the mountain, Bumblebee and Arcie three robots, soon stood under the night of New York.
This isn't the first time Merlin has seen Cybertron women.
However, compared to the previous female warrior of the Decepticons, Miss Arcie, who was transformed by a motorcycle, is more slender and petite, and compared to the mechanical appearance of Smash, Arcie's appearance is also similar to that of a human.
The Bopai Cybertrons seem to have this trait, and their human form is a bit milder than that of the Decepticons.
"First meeting..."
Alsie noticed Merlin's gaze, and the blue-painted Cybertron lady was half-kneeling on the ground, stretched out her hand to Merlin, and said to Merlin in a strong metallic voice, with a hint of friendship in a cold voice:
"Please take care of me."
"Of course, of course."
Merlin also reached out and touched the huge, cold palm of the mechanical lady, and he looked back at Fury, who was tilting his head back and staring at Bumblebee's big eyes for small eyes.
"This guy is like a bee..."
Fury complained to Merlin:
"I guess this is the B-127 that escaped from the Ministry of Defense at that time? They've been in touch with you? ”
"Yes, something happened then."
Merlin Says:
"At that time, it was just out of desperation to hide you, but later on, seeing that you were so busy, I never told you about their existence."
"Nothing."
Fury waved his hand very open-mindedly, and he said casually:
"It's like I've got something to hide from you, and it's normal for you to have some secrets, Merlin. But does your choice to expose their existence at this time mean that you have an eyebrow about the real 'Seventh District' that you have told me? ”
"Well, we found it."
Merlin handed a USB flash drive to Fury, who returned to his car, took out a tablet, and skimmed through the information in the USB flash drive, especially when he saw the little robot activated by the arc, Fury's expression suddenly became very ugly:
"After the last defeat, the Ministry of Defense has been cooperating with the Decepticons, and it is very likely that it has been infiltrated by alien forces."
He turned back to Merlin and said:
"That's a serious accusation... But if the information you bring is true, then the Ministry of Defense, at least those responsible for District 7, are rotten to the roots. ”
"It's normal."
The Cybertrons, who were sitting next to Fury, flew over the mountain urn and said angrily:
"Humans have a desire to play tricks in their hearts, and we've learned this in the years I've been traveling the world with Bumblebee. Many people can't hold their minds in the face of the lure of wealth, and for us Cybertrons, it's easy to get a lot of money out of your current financial system. ”
"'Confusion' may well have tempted your companions with an inexhaustible supply of money."
Bumblebee also said in his own odd tone from the radio audio segment:
"Not to mention, the Decepticons' tape corps responsible for intelligence collection are all here, and several of them can emit electromagnetic waves of special frequencies to manipulate, interfere with and affect the minds of carbon-based creatures, just like deep hypnosis, and humans who are not familiar with their abilities are likely to be tricked silently. The human mind is complex, but it is not impossible to manipulate. ”
Fury nodded, and the director looked at the screen in front of him with a sinking face, looking at the experimental data and video data taken from the database of the Ministry of Defense, and after a moment, he asked:
"The 'tinder' that activates and gives all electronic technology a strange life form is now in the hands of the Ministry of Defense?"
"Yes."
Merlin Says:
"Not only is the fire in their hands, but also the super mechanical tyrant Magtron we tried to find in the Hoover Dam last time, the leader of the frozen Decepticons, is also in their base, although I don't know why those Decepticons who cooperated with the Ministry of Defense did not wake up Magtron, but we still have to consider how we should deal with it once the powerful Magtron is awakened."
"Magtron is a violent person in the truest sense of the word."
Miss Iron Arsie said cross-legged, standing to the side in a very feminine manner, she was shorter than Flying Mountain and Bumblebee, but also 2.5 meters tall, and both Fury and Merlin had to look up to see her face.
"It is ruthless in its treatment of non-Cybertron lives, not only is it the most formidable warrior of all Cybertrons, but it is also an excellent strategist and commander, and IMHO, if we don't end this fight before Magtron recovers, then there is no chance of victory on just a few of us."
"If I'm not mistaken, you're planning a raid?"
Fury glanced at the three Cybertrons beside him, he turned to look at Merlin, and said:
"But you're taking time out to see me, so what do you need me to do?"
"This matter must be said to the face, after the appearance of the Decepticons, who are good at intelligence gathering, the security of any communication equipment can no longer be guaranteed."
Merlin said earnestly:
"Take these things to meet Pierce, Fury, and I'll go with my Cybertron friends to grab the tinder and prevent Magtron from being activated by those madmen."
"But this matter is different from the previous one after all, the Ministry of Defense is not our enemy on the surface, in order to prevent the situation from deteriorating further, we need forces from the top to suppress the current situation."
"The inaccuracies of the Ministry of Defense can't pose a threat to the Cybertrons, but they can interfere with our operations. The Decepticons may not care how many human soldiers are killed or wounded, but I do. ”
Merlin pushed his glasses, he glanced at Bumblebee and Flying Over the Mountain, and added:
"Our Bopai friends also care."
"Are you going to take your subordinates there?"
Fury asked:
"How many people do you want to bring?"
"No, it's a covert operation, Fury."
Merlin pointed to himself, and he said:
"I should be enough for one person, plus three Cybertron friends. Mobilizing formal forces to attack important bases of your allies without permission, and trying to snatch research objects that are extremely important to human civilization, even you can't afford to carry this pot, Fury. ”
Merlin took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and he said to Fury:
"If all goes well, we'll be back at dawn."
"Okay, I'll go see Pierce."
Fury opened the door, rolled down the window, and said to Merlin:
"That old man should have been sent home, so I wish you all the best."
"Wait, Fury."
Merlin took a palm-sized part from Bumblebee, and he handed it to Fury, saying:
"This thing in your pocket, it allows you to be aware of the disguised Decepticons that appear nearby, these Cybertrons have unimaginable camouflage abilities, and you need to keep an eye on all the electronics around you."
"Okay."
Fury made an OK gesture to Merlin, who quickly started his car and hit the road, disappearing from Merlin and the three Cybertron warriors.
After Fury left, Merlin looked back at the three mechanical friends and said:
"Let's go too, let's get this matter sorted out quickly."
"That base is in the desert of the Middle East."
Flying over the mountain urn, the urn said angrily:
"You have special magical powers and can pass quickly, but we can't, Merlin, we're not Decepticons, we can't fly."
"Minor problem!"
Merlin snapped his fingers, took any of the doors that Xuanlan had remade from his magic pocket, placed them at the exit of the parking lot, and opened the door.
He reached out and opened the door of the car flying over the mountain, and sitting in the cab, he said to the three robots:
"See that door? Speed up, rush over! ”
"Are you serious? Merlin. ”
Alsie's deformed motorcycle was speeding around the mountain, and Miss Steel asked:
"It's not a joke, is it?"
"It's not... Rush it. ”
Merlin patted the steering wheel flying over the mountain, and a few seconds later, in the low sound of the humming engine, he flew over the mountain and rushed to the door that could only allow two people to pass side by side, seeing that the black and red muscle car was about to easily smash the wooden door, but the next moment, in the light of any door, the body flying over the mountain was distorted by light, as if it had rushed into a black hole, and disappeared into the parking lot in the suburbs of New York City in a blink of an eye.
Behind the hill, the bumblebee's shape-shifting sports car let out a strange horn sound, and then rushed into the door at breakneck speed.
Finally, there was Arcie, the driverless blue motorcycle cautiously and cowardly approached the pink wooden door, she tentatively drove the front wheel into any door, but the next moment, Xuanlan's hand appeared on Arcie's motorcycle handlebar, and then twisted it fiercely.
"Buzz"
In Alsie's scream, the steel lady also quickly rushed into any door, and then landed thousands of miles away in the Middle Eastern desert.
Tsk, this upside-down onion landing posture is a little too ugly.
