Chapter 324: Cybertron's Meteor Shower
Cybertron, Castle City.
Joshida was directing the retraction of troops.
Qingqiu City and the surrounding three cities have all been swept away by the Iron Floating Slaughter Battle Group during this time. The Space Marines once expanded to the edge of the Rusty Sea, and if it weren't for Aoyama Khan's personal order to withdraw all the ships, the Space Marines would even want to take a vehicle to a farther area to continue the tiger hunt.
At this time, Fu Qinghai and Qiao Shida stood in the middle of the temporary landing ground in Qingqiu City, watching the surrounding Space Marines carrying supplies into the gunboat. There were also several Transformer corpses lying here, and the Techno Sergeant was crouching next to the corpses, with mechanical tentacles sticking out of the drill and pliers behind them to pick up the transformation gears.
"Thirty minutes, Khan."
Joshida reported with a tactical tablet in hand.
"Hmm."
Fu Qinghai looked at the corpse and fell into thought.
He was thinking about another question.
In fact, all the Iron Float really needs is the Transformation Gear, in fact, as long as they can obtain the Transformation Gear, they don't necessarily have to kill the Decepticons. Of course, killing the Decepticons rewards assimilation points, which is also a bonus.
Flame is the soul of the Cybertrons, and when the Cybertrons die, the Tinder returns to the Well of the Kindling, no matter how far apart. However, the transformation gears do not disappear with the fire, and theoretically speaking, you can get the transformation gears as well as the corpses of the Transformers, whether they are Decepticons or Autobots.
But there's a problem here:
The Cybertrons had no funerary customs.
For human beings on the earth, no matter whether the regional culture pursues burial, cremation or water burial, there is a certain respect and awe for the corpse. But for the Cybertrons, the body that has lost its fire is just a pile of metal, and the corpses of the vast majority of Cybertrons will be reprocessed and re-forged after death.
For example, Megatron, who was a miner before the uprising, numbered D-16, if his co-workers died in a mining accident, or simply because of overwork, the body was worn out to the point of obsolescence, and the body after losing the fire was recycled by the factory, forged and processed into a new mining Cybertron gave the fire again.
Therefore, there is no place like a cemetery or cemetery on Cybertron Star, and it is difficult for Fu Qinghai to obtain the transformation gear through the corpse. But now the situation is a little different, Cybertron has lost the well of the Tinder Source, there will be no new Cybertrons, and the war has caused most factories to stop operating, so what are the corpses disposed of?
Fu Qinghai fell into deep thought for a while.
"Khan? Khan? ”
Joshida reminded from the side.
"How?"
Fu Qinghai turned his head and asked.
"The supplies have all been packed."
Joshida pointed to the Thunderhawk gunboat and said:
"We can go back to the Suzheng."
"Okay."
Fu Qinghai was preparing to step on the gangway of the gunboat.
"Khan!"
Then a Space Marine came over and said:
"There is a Decepticon convoy heading towards Qingqiu City, and it is expected to arrive here in ten minutes."
As he spoke, a servo skull floated up next to the Space Marine, and a holographic projection was projected in his eye socket:
On the wide road, nine large vehicles are speeding in a row, and these vehicles are generally construction vehicles: road rollers, bulldozers, mixer trucks......
"Digging Tiger."
Fu Qinghai narrowed his eyes and said:
"Hercules is coming."
Hercules is the first combination of King Kong in the Decepticon camp, who has made great contributions in the civil war and conquered countless cities, and the nine brothers who make up Hercules are the diggers. Now that the Digging Tiger convoy is heading straight for Qingqiu City, it is clear that Shockwave has realized that something is wrong here.
But it's too late, shockwave!
"What to do with these guys, Khan?"
Qiao Shida looked at Fu Qinghai and asked:
"Deploy the Golden Armor of the Broken Army?"
"No more wasted time."
Fu Qinghai shook his head and said:
"Just give him a glowing spear to taste."
……
At this time, outside Qingqiu City.
The Nine Digging Tiger Brothers were very cautious, they did not drive directly into the city, but activated the transformation long before entering the city. Nine construction vehicles quickly deformed and grouped together, and the mechanical giant slowly stood up outside the city, looking up at the quiet ruins of the city's high-rise buildings in front of him.
Hercules' gaze searched the ruins.
The next second.
The golden pillar of light descended from the sky like a divine punishment.
Without any reaction time, the combination of King Kong was instantly pierced by a pillar of golden light through his back, how to describe that scene? It was as if a staff of God had fallen from the sky, pinning the mechanical giant to the ground in an instant, immobilizing.
Hercules fell apart with a bang.
After the torso was pierced by the light spear, the combined King Kong could no longer maintain the combined form, and the diggers that made up the various parts of Hercules' body scattered and rolled to the ground. They were all injured to varying degrees, and they all lay on the ground wailing. Until the low whistling of the gunboat as it dives overhead.
Several flaming Raptor gunboats attacked.
"Da Zi ......Zi
The sound of the Avenger blaster was so dense that there was only a buzz left in the Digger's auditory receptors, and the bombs rained down on the nine Transformers like a torrential rain of metal, covering the entire area with bombs, and the earth was boiling in the rain of bullets, and the Diggers didn't last long.
The Transformers' bodies are hard and their defenses are strong, and a single heavy explosive bomb can't penetrate it, but it can't stop the heavy explosive bomb from hitting them like a flood that has leaked the floodgates, and the barrage of explosive bombs one after another shatters them.
Ten Flaming Raptor gunboats slowly descended, and the area was in shambles, with explosive warheads, metal shards, and wreckage mixed together. Luckily, the technical sergeant dug out nine deformed gears from the debris of one place.
……
The battleship Suzheng was flying over the Iron Fort.
Fu Qinghai stared at the picture in the bird divination array, Hercules had already died, but from the orbit, the Decepticon troops in the iron castle had not been mobilized on a large scale. The shock wave's reaction was even more sluggish than Fu Qinghai had imagined.
Fu Qinghai knew why.
In the past, Cybertron had a good communications infrastructure and a data network covering the entire planet's surface. As long as the Cybertrons are on the surface of the planet, they can upload and download information or make video calls whenever and wherever they are. But as the civil war progressed, these communication infrastructures were destroyed, and the city of King Kong disappeared with Manifest One, and without the super artificial intelligence support of Manifest One, the data network could no longer cover the world as it did in the past.
Communication has returned to its primitive stage.
The Decepticons also had their own intelligence unit, an intelligence force independent of the data network - Sonic and his Mini-King Kong tape army. Unfortunately, Megatron took Sonic with him, and the intelligence force left Cybertron on the Retribution, resulting in Shockwave now being very devoid of eyes and ears, and the transmission of information is seriously delayed.
This is good news for Fu Qinghai.
Through the interrogation of the two captives, Fu Qinghai has learned the weak nature of the Cybertron Star Decepticons. The most critical reason is that it took too much time for the Suzheng to fly all the way from the earth to Cybertron, and there was not much time left for the major events in the plot line, which prompted Fu Qinghai to change his tactical style of play, and cut his flesh and bloodlet into a frontal battle.
But in the middle of a major event in the plot line.
One question that has to be considered is:
Samsara, this variable factor.
"Before, when you were operating on the surface, didn't you encounter anyone who was suspected of being a reincarnation?"
Fu Qinghai looked at Qiao Shida and asked.
"No, we've only encountered a few mini-King Kongs hiding in the cracks of sewer pipes and rubble."
Joshida shook his head and said.
Mini-Kongs weren't a target for Space Marines, the shapeshifting gears in their bodies were too small, and killing these neutral Cybertrons hiding in the ruins didn't reward assimilation points, at most they were captured by the Techno Sergeant to study and play with them and then let them go.
Where are the reincarnated?
Fu Qinghai actually already had a rough guess in his heart.
While it's unlikely that players will choose to anchor the Transformers United Universe, a batch of unlucky eggs will be randomly teleported in every time the cycle is opened. However, this episode does not take place on Cybertron at all, but follows the two core plot characters in the Transformers United Universe: Optimus Prime and Megatron. Where they are, the big events of the plot line are also there. So I haven't encountered a reincarnation myself.
"But that's fine."
Fu Qinghai said to himself:
"There are no surprises to interfere with."
"Khan, you've arrived over the Iron Castle."
Joestar reminded.
On the large tabletop, holographic projections flicker, and green lines outline the architectural model on the surface of the Iron Castle. Fu Qinghai saw the tower at a glance, this huge fortress-like structure stood out in the slightly dilapidated city, presumably the legendary "Tower of Shock Waves".
Fu Qinghai glanced at the Eye of Prophecy again:
[Countdown to the end of this reincarnation ......]
[3 hours 42 minutes 36 seconds]
"Orbital airborne ready, Khan!"
A mortal crew member reported loudly.
"Then give Iron Castle a standard process."
Fu Qinghai raised his chin and ordered.
"Yes, Khan."
The commander of the first company took the order and left.
……
At this time, the Central Iron Fort.
Unlike other deserted and dilapidated cities on Cybertron, the Iron Castle has been ravaged by war, but as the most developed city on Cybertron, there are still many Cybertrons living here today. It's just that most of them have been reduced to refugees, struggling to survive under the oppressive rule of Shockwave and their Decepticons. Dissidents are also forced to enter labor camps for rehabilitation, otherwise they will die.
The Tower of Shockwave is the most heavily defended place in the entire Iron Castle, the only brand new building in the Iron Castle, and the base camp that Shockwave has built for itself. More "fortresses" than "towers", high walls, turrets, battlements, power grids...... There were warplanes in the sky from time to time, and there were tanks driving back and forth on the ground, and all the main forces of the Decepticons were here. A formidable fortress that is formidable.
From the perspective of the Autobots alone, the fort defense arrangement is sufficient. The city of Cybertron is mostly three-dimensional, like the Hive Capital, and the fortress has been fortified against every underground passage on each street above ground, preventing Autobot guerrillas from entering the fort through these areas.
But its designers never thought about it.
Destruction, sometimes from the sky, too.
On the street outside the Shockwave Tower, four or five Decepticons armed with weapons were escorting a group of civilians. They were kicked out of their homes on the grounds that they were assisting the Autobots in defending the city. The civilians are walking into the ruins of the city under the threat of gunfire and then begin to clean up and remove construction debris.
A Cybertron civilian, who had been a bartender in the old oil mill of McAdhan, was leaning over to pry a concrete slab, and his body was designed less for the heavy manual labor of being more suited for the delicate work of bartending. But he had no choice but to lift the heavy wall with all his might—or the bullet would fall on his head.
The Cybertron had just picked up the wall board and placed it on the transport vehicle beside him, when he suddenly felt something and looked up. I saw that in the eternal gloomy and dim sky of Cybertron, there seemed to be a few bright rays of light, which were falling rapidly downward, getting closer and closer to the direction where they were......
Is it a shooting star?
The Cybertrons couldn't help but froze.
Unconsciously stop the movement of your hand.
Cybertron ...... How many years has it been since there been a meteor shower? I forgot when the last time it was. The planet is far away from the star, and the light is always so gray and gloomy. Ever since he became self-conscious, the space bridge had broken, and only a handful of flying machines had appeared in the sky.
"Hey, idiot, what are you doing!"
An explosive roar sounded behind him:
"Don't be lazy, keep working, middle class!"
The civilians ignored the overseer's hurried insults and threats.
Because he saw the meteor getting closer and closer.
The Cybertrons threw down their tools.
"Destroy, it's good to destroy......"
Let the Iron Castle fall apart in the meteorite impact.
It's better than living under the oppression of the Decepticons.
The overseer behind him walked over menacingly.
None of them thought of it.
Coming earlier than a meteor is heavenly punishment.
Several giant pillars of golden light appeared in the air in the blink of an eye, piercing through the dust and illuminating the hazy sky, like a bridge of light connecting heaven and earth. The Decepticon team patrolling around the Tower of Shockwaves was instantly melted and vaporized by these golden lights. The golden pillar of light was accompanied by an explosion, and huge cannonballs fell on the surface.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”
At that moment, the heavens and the earth changed color, and the earth shook the mountains.
The Cybertrons in the ruins fell to the ground unsteadily, and they looked up at the newly-built fortress in the distance, completely obscured by the blasting fire and overwhelming rubble from golden pillars of light and giant cannonballs. The Decepticons were dumbfounded and forgot to continue to supervise civilian work.
That's when it happened.
The "shooting star" in the sky finally fell.
