Chapter 287: Super Optimus Prime
I made a mistake in my command this time, and I disappointed you."
Gareth Stanton, after giving a detailed account of the battle, said he was willing to accept the punishment.
David didn't say anything, but glanced at Optimus Prime next to him, and the former Autobot leader explained it to Gareth.
When the convoy transporting civilians was attacked by elves, Gareth Stanton commanded the Winter Knights to launch a surprise attack from the rear, and indeed eliminated the most threatening giant tree in the shortest possible time, ensuring that the convoy suffered no damage - the battle broke out and ended, with only a few unlucky people who ran around suffering minor injuries and no deaths.
Suffice it to say, Gareth Stanton, despite some minor lapses in battle command, was not a problem overall.
The most important thing is that Gareth Stanton's "misjudgment" was based on the strong combat power displayed by the Blizzard Power Armor in the previous battle, and he was convinced that his knights had the ability to fight alone, so he carried out such a command.
In the previous battle against the Orc Army, the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment initially formed a relatively dense formation, but as the battle progressed, the soldiers became more and more dispersed, as Tyran-Ferding found that only by spreading out could he really use the full firepower of the soldiers who were born in the Blizzard Power Armor.
Not to mention the team's assembly and cooperation, even if it is two or three soldiers together, it is a waste.
It is based on this battlefield performance that Gareth will scatter all the knights in this operation, and almost every knight will attack a target unit individually.
Therefore, strictly speaking, it cannot be said that Gareth-Stanton made a command error, but the current commanders do not have a sufficient understanding of their own and the enemy's combat capabilities, and they need to constantly explore and make mistakes when directing operations.
"In that case...... For the next period of time, you will not be involved in the command of any battles, and you will be in charge of training in the barracks for a period of time!"
On the surface, David seems to be punishing Gareth Stanton, but it's nothing at all.
Even if there is no such thing, Gareth Stanton will normally have to rest for a while, and then even if Winterfell is going to war with the elves, the commander will not be Gareth Stanton, but someone else.
Gareth Stanton wanted to say something, but was stopped by a wave of his hand from David.
Now that the Lord has made his decision, as the first knight of the personal guard to follow Lord Glamorgan, Gareth Stanton can only obey unconditionally.
However, he had already made up his mind in his heart that he must take advantage of this time to study how to better command the Winter Knights.
Knights who can perfectly use advanced weapons such as Blizzard Power Armor and Piccolo Assault Rifles can perfectly exert their full combat power, and will not be too scattered to cause their subordinates to fall into danger.
After watching Gareth Stanton leave, David looked at Optimus Prime again.
The former Autobot leader, after prompting the Cybertrons to move to Winterfell, has been concentrating on the study of the Light, and this time he took the initiative to find him, so that Optimus Prime led some Autobots and Spartan heavy infantry to transport the people stranded in Irontree back to Winterfell.
After completing the mission and coming with Gareth Stanton to report the situation to David, Optimus Prime doesn't seem to have any intention of leaving, which is obviously something to talk to him.
"What's the matter?"
"Yes." Optimus Prime didn't go around in circles, and directly voiced his worries: "I thought that coming to Winterfell would be a good choice for the Cybertrons, but the successive wars made me worried."
Winterfell hasn't been at peace lately, and it's not just the war that worries him; First orcs, then elves, Optimus Prime fears that one day the humans of Winterfell, like the humans of his world, will not be able to accept the Cybertrons.
"It's a completely different situation." David reassured Optimus Prime that he didn't have to worry about it: "The root cause of these wars is the competition for living space and resources
The people of Pethin are a member of Winterfell."
In his heart, David felt that it was these wars that allowed these Cybertrons to integrate into Winterfell more quickly.
Because there are external enemies, people inside will not care about any racial differences and differences in living customs.
What's more, the human inhabitants of Winterfell are much more accepting than the Earth humans in the Transformers world, in addition to the fact that the continent of Brenia itself has more strange races, but also because of the existence of mysterious powers.
In the world with mysterious powers, the transformation ability of the Transformers is not a special ability, because the druids know how to transform, and in terms of body structure, the transformation of the druids is much more outrageous than that of the Transformers.
"Winterfell has plenty of resources to survive."
Nor does Winterfall need to expand by force to seize other people's resources. For now, Winterfell's resources are not running out.
Even if more people arrive, more wasteland will be cleared; At the same time, more people are engaged in all walks of life, and even the fishing industry, which is not yet available, may also be spawned due to market demand.
In addition, as the territory actually controlled by David continues to grow, all the barren land in the northern plains will become a fertile soil, and even David does not know how many people can be supported by such a large piece of fertile land.
"What if the orcs and elves want access to Winterfell's resources?"
"As long as it is obtained through proper means......
Optimus Prime heard David say this, and nodded slightly, although he would care about the survival power of all kinds of lives, but he was not brainless, it was obviously the other party who attacked first and asked David's side not to fight back.
As for the legitimate way Davy said, Optimus Prime could guess that it was nothing more than obtaining Winterfell's resources through trade; Or simply become a resident of Winterfell, like the Cybertrons.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and even thought that if David could become the ruler of this land, maybe it would be the luck of the intelligent races on this continent.
Instead of enslaving them, David will establish a stable order, ensuring that those who live in his territory can get their due remuneration through their labor, and use these rewards in exchange for all kinds of living resources they need.
Although there are classes in Winterfell, Optimus Prime does not see oppression here, even if the security forces are a little rough when enforcing the law, it is acceptable.
Afterward, Optimus Prime chatted with David about the Holy Light.
David found that Optimus Prime had a thorough understanding of the Holy Light, and was not far from truly mastering the Holy Light.
With this in mind, David noticed a pillar of light descend from the contemplative Optimus Prime's head, and a golden glow enveloped the metal giant.
After a few moments, the light vanished, and Optimus Prime was still thinking back to the wonderful feeling he had just had.
"How do you feel?"
"It's never been better." As Optimus Prime spoke, his body suddenly began to deform, and soon he changed under David's gaze.
The red body and blue legs were very different from the previous red and blue shapes, but David recognized this as the classic shape of Optimus Prime.
"You're ......?"
"This is what I was like when I was on Cybertron." Optimus Prime also looked at himself, "The fire in my body has returned to its peak state, and it has even become stronger."
Perhaps in order to adapt to the fire in his peak state, Optimus Prime's body has also "recovered" to its peak appearance.
"I think you're more handsome."
"I think so too."
Optimus Prime searched for a more suitable model from his records, and then transformed into a red flat-top truck under David's gaze.
And that's not all, after Optimus Prime transformed, there was a sudden spatial teleportation fluctuation not far behind, and then a car with a clear Autobot logo appeared behind the red truck and connected to the front of the truck.
Subsequently, Optimus Prime transformed into a truck head and again
The carriage separated, but this time the carriage did not disappear and still stopped there, and Optimus Prime transformed back into human form.
Looking back at the carriage, Optimus Prime sighed, "I thought I wouldn't have a chance to summon this old fellow again!"
「……」
David, who was staring at the bustle all the time next to him, spread his hands, and Optimus Prime explained it to David.
Optimus Prime has always had a carriage, and this carriage is technically his arsenal, but the fire of Optimus Prime was very weak before, and there was no way to summon the carriage from the "other dimension".
In the original movie story, Optimus Prime received the Tinder from Skyfire and the leadership matrix to make Tinder strong again, so he "re-summoned" the carriage and stored the plug-in accessories provided by Skyfire.
Now there is no fire provided by the Heavenly Fire, so it is not until he comprehends that the Holy Light Flame energy has returned to its peak that he is summoned back to his carriage again.
"I see."
After listening to Optimus Prime's explanation, David looked at the carriage again, thinking that it was only used to store weapons, was it too wasteful for such a large carriage?
"Haven't you considered upgrading the carriage?"
"How do I level up?"
"Let the carriage also have the ability to shapeshift, and be able to merge with yourself." David thought of Renlai, who looked almost identical to Optimus Prime.
Renlai who can be combined with the carriage is called Super Renlai, so the Optimus Prime that can be combined with the carriage can also be called Super Optimus Prime!
After listening to David's suggestion, Optimus Prime thought seriously for a few seconds: "It's not technically impossible."
Optimus Prime, who has obtained the Holy Light, will not only become stronger, but even stronger all the time, and he does not have to worry about not being able to recover after consuming a lot of energy, he has enough energy to urge a larger body.
"You can try to look into it."
