Chapter 143: Base No. 2
The so-called energy absorption and transformation device is the set of machines that Sun Cheng once enjoyed in the base of the Red Spider to replenish energy to the core.
This is a unique device on Cybertron that can quickly convert electrical energy into high-purity energy liquid storage, and is a vital strategic device for mechanical life such as Decepticons and Autobots.
The Decepticon's Tinder and Core are constantly consuming energy and need to be replenished regularly, otherwise once their own storage falls below a certain percentage, they will either go to dormancy to minimize consumption, or they will wait for the aging and decay of the body to come.
Although the high-level Decepticons and Autobots, including Sun Cheng, all have the ability to directly absorb electrical energy to replenish energy.
However, they are not only less efficient at absorbing electrical energy than specialized energy absorption and conversion devices, but also take much more time.
In the past, Sun Cheng did not have that condition, and could only rely on absorbing the electricity generated by the diesel generators in the base to barely recover some consumption.
Now with Jazz's memory chip in hand, he immediately opted for an energy-absorbing and converting device after the attack refused to take out his sonic stun gun in exchange.
After completing the deal with the attack, Sun Cheng did not stay in the base all the time.
The replication and upgrade of plasma pistols requires equipment and materials, and in addition to this, they are also running around to place orders and purchase materials for the construction of Base 2.
A few days later, a message came from Brazil from the Precursors, and the first supplies that had been procured before he returned to reality had arrived in the Amanbay Mountains, where Base 2 was located.
The Great Underground Cave in the remote part of the Amanbai Mountains was the second base he had chosen for a long time, and now it was finally about to be built.
After learning the news, Sun Cheng immediately squeezed out four sappers from Base 1 and sent them to Brazil in two parts.
Their identity is too special, let alone hiring humans to help, I'm afraid that if they show their faces in front of people a little now, there is a high chance that they will be discovered by the U.S. government, which is now eager to search for them all over the world.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Sun Cheng knew better than anyone that unless the Red Spider or Shockwave summoned the Decepticon Legion to Earth, there was really no way to fight against the most powerful country on Earth with only three or five high-level Decepticons.
"The host ......"
The forerunner respectfully welcomed Sun Cheng, who was holding a small container in one hand, into the depths of the mountain range.
"This is the cave?" Sun Cheng followed him into the inaccessible mountains, and walked in a canyon for more than half an hour before reaching the place where the cave was, and couldn't help but be interested.
A few days ago, when he made a delivery here, in order to save time, he basically left immediately after handing over to the forerunner.
To put it bluntly, there is still a shortage of manpower.
The ten sappers who had been traded from the raid had to research the ship and plasma pistol for him, as well as the expansion of the two bases.
If it weren't for them, as long as the energy was not exhausted, they would be able to continue working, and no one would be able to bear it.
When the forerunner heard this, he immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, master, this is it!" ”
Sun Cheng looked around and nodded.
The underground cave at Site 2 is located deep in the Amanbai Mountains, in a canyon surrounded by mountains.
There is no other way to enter this place than on foot and aircraft, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a Jedi for a weak human.
The pioneer chose the No. 2 base with a good environment, and when he stepped into the underground cave, Sun Cheng became more and more satisfied, "Not bad!" ”
This underground cave deserves to be a miracle, but it is also worthy of the gift of nature.
Its entrance is already spacious, it can be no less than ten meters in length, width and height, and the first section of the cave has rugged and curves, but no matter how far you go into the cave, there are several empty underground caves that do not want to communicate with each other about a few hundred meters away, the largest of which is not the size of three football fields, and the smallest one is the size of three or four basketball courts.
The terrain in the cave is uneven, there are raised stone pillars, there are sunken puddles, there is even a lake in a karst cave, the depth of the lake is connected to an underground river, along the underground river can flow all the way into a long river in a canyon 20 kilometers away, not only safe but also has great development potential.
Although I am a little sorry for this gift of nature, the four Decepticon sappers sent by Sun Cheng did not have the sense of human protection, and they had already begun to use machines to continuously destroy the stone pillars in the cave, grind the ground, and start construction work on the cave.
Sun Cheng looked satisfied, and praised the forerunner again, "Yes, you must pay close attention to your work here, and strive to do a good job here within half a year." ”
The forerunner was a little surprised, looked up at Sun Cheng, and asked puzzledly, "Master, do you need to rush like this?" ”
In principle, as long as the energy is not exhausted, mechanical life can actually continue to work.
But the reason why they are called beings and not machines is because they, like humans, have joys and sorrows, but also have times when they are tired and want to rest.
Sun Cheng's request, if only he and the four sappers are doing it, let alone half a year, it will be very reluctant to finish it within a year.
After all, the No. 2 base is almost starting from scratch, not only to level all the underground karst caves, strengthen the earthquake-proof structure, but also to lay lines, pipelines, and dig other emergency escape routes and waterways, all of which are pressed on the bodies of these engineers, and the workload is not small.
Sun Cheng frowned, he was not a little dissatisfied with the doubts of the forerunners, but he was worried about the situation in the United States.
After pondering for a moment, he replied, "You guys are in a hurry first, and there may be other sappers transferred from the No. 1 base depending on the situation." The situation in the United States is uncertain now, and in a few days I am going to take the risk of testing what NEST is. ”
Soon after the Battle of Las Vegas, he had obtained some information about the relationship between the Autobots and the U.S. government through his own insider who had bribed and planted in the U.S. government.
It's a pity that Sun Cheng's inside line can't reach the most critical place, so he can only be sure that the Autobot may have established a cooperative relationship with the U.S. government, but the specific content is not clear.
This is by no means good news!
Sun Cheng dared to use his core to vouch for that he was now definitely on the Autobots' blacklist, and now it was likely that he had replaced the dead Megatron and Shockwave, who was temporarily absent from Earth, and temporarily topped the list.
No way, not to mention the losses he inflicted on the U.S. military in the Battle of Las Vegas, just his attempt to kill Bumblebee and the half-mech he took with him when he fled, it was enough for him to be hated by the Autobots and the U.S. government.
That's why he had to be vigilant, if the Autobots reached a cooperation with the US military government, and even began to clean up the Decepticons on the earth, then Sun Cheng would definitely be the first target.
ps:
The mind is almost cleared, and it should be possible to return to normal updates tomorrow.
