Chapter 62: Cybertron's Past
Qiao Lu threw the Decepticon eyeball he dragged out casually, and said to Optimus Prime quite calmly:
"Yes, we are the Earth CN171-11 expedition team, and we have been ordered to land on your planet for a friendly visit. I didn't expect that we were attacked as soon as we came up, and it seems that your civilization is not very welcoming to outsiders? ”
Optimus Prime denied it, "Our civilization is not like this, it's just that the Decepticons are indeed hostile to all alien races. It's a shame you met them first, but the planet is about to be completely taken over by them. ”
These are the same as Qiao Lu knows, and it seems that this civil war is indeed nearing its end.
The question is, which side is currently in the hands of the key source of fire?
In the middle of their conversation, the Decepticons are ready to make a comeback.
In the context of the almost complete fall of Cybertron, Optimus Prime can only lead the Autobots to fight guerrillas.
He simply invited Qiao Lu and said, "This is not a place to talk, come with us, and I will tell you everything that is happening on this planet." ”
This is just as Qiao Law wanted, he beckoned to Liu Peiqiang and Wang Lei, and motioned for them to follow together.
Before the Decepticons' counterattack arrived, the trio followed Optimus Prime into an underground stronghold, which seemed to be their temporary hiding place.
It's like Zion, the underground city of the Matrix, where a large number of Autobots live, relying on the remnants of ancient civilizations to avoid the endless pursuit of the Decepticons.
This is the only place where the Autobots can get a little respite, but it is almost impossible to retake Cybertron.
Qiao Lu could see that this place was a complete army of all the people, and everyone had taken up arms to prepare for war, and there was not a single worker in sight.
Even the underground facilities they relied on for their survival were simply being activated, and no one was maintaining them.
They may still have many high-tech artifacts left over from past civilizations, but these are non-renewable resources, as there are no Transformers who can continue to build them.
It's a shame, if you can get Jolu to kidnap an Autobot scientist back to wander Earth, like Dr. Grace did, maybe these powerful ancient Cybertron technologies can be deciphered.
Now, of course, there's no need to count on it.
Qiao Lu followed Optimus Prime all the way to the main control room of the underground stronghold, where the first diplomatic contact between human civilization and the Cybertambo faction began.
Optimus Prime first sighed: "I remember the last time we got information about you, you were still in the primitive era of slash-and-burn farming, and I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, you would have the ability to explore galaxies. On the contrary, our civilization is constantly regressing, and even our fellow Autobots scattered on other planets in the galaxy cannot be contacted. ”
Although Optimus Prime obviously had a little misunderstanding in this matter, Qiao Lu was not from the Earth he knew at all.
It's just that Qiao Lu didn't rush to correct him, and the existence of the Wandering Earth still needs to be kept secret first.
At least until the opportunity to cooperate with them is confirmed, Qiao Lu does not plan to reveal the information that he is from another earth.
So he deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "Well, we have experienced a technological explosion, and we have completed the scientific and technological achievements that could have been achieved in hundreds or even thousands of years in a few decades." So we discovered your presence and tried to come and communicate with you. ”
Regarding the technology explosion, Qiao Lu is not lying, looking back on the scientific and technological progress of the Wandering Earth since the discovery that the sun is about to explode helium flash, it can be called a technological explosion comparable to the industrial revolution.
And the explosion of this technology has not stopped until now, but has intensified because of the crossing of the world and the catalysis of the system.
It won't be long before the scientific and technological strength of the Wandering Earth will reach another level.
However, this concept may be difficult for the Transformers to understand, and their civilization has continued to rewind millions of years instead of continuing to develop.
Technological progress alone is impossible for them.
"Yes, you are an incredible race." Optimus Prime couldn't help but sigh, "Unlike us, you still have infinite possibilities. ”
As the leader of the Bo School, Optimus Prime certainly knew that Cybertron was inevitably going to perish.
The Cybertron civilization has no hope of continuing to grow, at least not in the way he likes.
"Ahem, that's all for us humans." Qiao Lu cleared his throat and said, he didn't come to answer questions.
"And how much more can you tell us about this planet?"
Speaking of this, Optimus Prime pressed his head with his fingers, and a picture of Cybertron in the past was projected from his eyes in front of Qiao Lu.
"Our civilization was once a mighty empire, peace-loving and justice-keeping."
In the past, Cybertron was truly a thriving scene, with majestic mechanical structures everywhere, spaceships larger than asteroids, and even the ability to convert an entire star into energy, or transfer an entire planet from one space to another.
At that time, Cybertron was the top civilization in the universe, and various galactic miracles emerged one after another, some of which were advanced technologies beyond human imagination.
"Until the Decepticons betrayed us, they were all born warriors, all forces that disobeyed him were wiped out, and our civilization was plunged into a civil war that lasted for millions of years."
The original Cybertron War was terrifying, with weapons of mass destruction a hundred times more terrifying than hydrogen bombs littered everywhere, starships blasting in space like firecrackers, and all kinds of superweapons that humans currently cannot understand have been used in this war.
As a result, Cybertron was almost depleted, leaving only the Tinder Source, the energy core of the Transformers.
The way of fighting between the Transformers is also constantly regressing, and at first there were advanced warfare technologies such as orbital bombing and electronic viruses, but later it completely turned into savage hand-to-hand combat between machines.
Optimus Prime just held two high-temperature hot melting knives and killed seven in and seven out is the extreme embodiment of this fighting style, in the past, he had long since known what high-tech weapons were bombarded with a bombardment, and absolutely not even a single part would be left behind.
This has also led to the current situation where all the Transformers are soldiers, at most, they will transform some of their own bodies, and those super weapons in the past don't know how to build them at all.
I have to say that this is a kind of luck, otherwise Cybertron would not last for millions of years.
