Finally, a few men in suits gradually stepped down from the vehicles...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are they...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo, in the warehouse, was bewildered, but his underling quickly found images on his phone...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because these people looked very familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That one...\" Schleski quietly pointed to one of the men in a suit, \"Thunder God Company’s CEO.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just the CEO of Thunder God Company; there were also CEOs from Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Honeywell International, and other major companies, along with their CTOs and top technology teams, crammed into this crowded and backward area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place had nothing to do with where these people should be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo felt a strange sensation turning his worldview upside down, reassembling it...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was brainstorming, a man in a military jacket led a team and equipment towards him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m Lennox, commander of the Nest team. As instructed, we’re going to lock down this place. Do you have any other instructions...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished speaking, various engine sounds came from the distant street:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trucks, sports cars, ambulances, sedans...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most striking was a red pickup truck leading the way—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click, click, click...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pickup completed a rapid transformation from vehicle to human form in one second, with every part and structure passing through Leo and his nearby lieutenants’ visual systems, yet their brains couldn’t remember what exactly changed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing they could remember was that all these vehicles transformed into giant robots in an instant, the truth he had longed to uncover!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bam!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Optimus Prime’s heavy foot landed on the floor with a thud. Flashing light emitted from his shoulder, and following the light, Leo saw a somewhat familiar yet different figure...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sss.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lille: Now go to the meeting with them, and I’ll tell you what to do.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lille: What’s with that ghostly expression of yours? You’ve become famous, Leo. You have money, power, and have become a human hero revealing the truth.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lille: See, I never lied to you from the start, right?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Optimus Prime actually doesn’t mind acting in the sunlight, but humans are just too complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The downfall of Cybertron, though a civil war, was simple in concept, with the ideologies of the Decepticons and Autobots being very pure:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Decepticons wanted to use all means to expand their planet, ensure the survival of their race, and restore Cybertron’s glory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Autobots wished to achieve this goal while respecting other species, and if they couldn’t do so under this premise, then the Transformers considered themselves failures...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or they would look for other methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their leaders were also very pure, with a significant intelligence gap between advanced Transformers and lower-tier workers, mainly reflected in cognitive abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearly every Transformer’s birth was influenced by the planet’s needs and infused with suitable energy, just enough to execute their innate role commands, whether it was the innate technology information they carried or their physical form and strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their emotions and cognitive abilities—or rather, their capacity to overthink—depended on the total energy influx of the spark core when created; more meant richer emotions, less meant fewer emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, humans appear to be born with a mind full of wild thoughts, bringing almost no skills, but with relatively stronger plasticity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tens of billions of such beings, with emotions and cognitive abilities several times more complex than ordinary Transformers, crammed onto Earth naturally create a societal structure that perplexes Optimus Prime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I’ve forcibly exposed your existence to the world. After confirming your existence, humans will react very complexly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Optimus Prime folded his arms, surveying the factory while continuing, \"Complex to the point of unpredictability. Humans are inherently unpredictable, some cruel, some kind; some full of ambition, some content with a peaceful life... Their desires and thoughts far exceed those of our kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I choose to respect their President’s opinion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I’ve changed the President’s opinion simply by broadly publicizing the truth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This will complicate matters: our existence, the war with the Decepticons, and Cybertron technology.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, you respect the President of Mei Country, choose to conceal, but in fact, you’re disrespecting the right of other Earthlings to know, something stated in their laws.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Optimus Prime’s big head fell into confusion and dilemma, yet overall... he could understand; Lille’s argument seemed reasonable, it wasn’t disrespectful to Earthlings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the President is an Earthling, the Federal Government is made up of Earthlings, and are others not Earthlings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The President of Mei Country knows he can’t control you, and others know it too, so he can only take a proactive approach to engage with you, especially representing those top entrepreneurs to engage with you...mainly to maintain priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you’re unwilling to teach Cybertron Technology.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At this point, you came... you shared your world’s technology with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not yet, but I did promise this—this doesn’t undermine your idea, as I’m not a Cybertronian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You exploited their desires.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I respected the right of other Earthlings to know. You can ask others what they think, isn’t everyone eager to cooperate with me and greatly praising me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scanning network information is a moment’s work for Optimus Prime. He doesn’t have to fully understand, but among 6 billion people, Mei Country only has 100 million...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even among these 100 million, most are cursing the Federal Government!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it’s a common scenario, it still rendered Optimus Prime speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of combat power, he’s vastly superior to the current Lille; yet in discussing such... seemingly plausible truths and stirring human society, perhaps all the Transformers combined aren’t as good as one Lille.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lennox knocked and entered, glancing at Lille, then at the heavily injured Optimus Prime: \"New friend?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be precise, he’s the real commander. He’s commanding that human outside, and that human is commanding you... and us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lennox paused, then Lille explained proactively: \"You know, humans are so skeptical. Although I’m a human, showing up outside in this form would inevitably cause more unnecessary alarm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You? Human?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a bit complicated, Captain, but you just need to fight alongside this big guy like before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Lille jumped down from the platform and headed towards the nearby surgery room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, let’s take a look at the information in Sam’s head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, let’s see what exactly is different about the so-called ’Megatron reverse engineering.’\u003C\u002Fp>",1088,"2026-06-03T12:33:34.348Z","2026-06-03T12:33:41.179Z",1,"novelbin.me","630126f4a93ed6189698e593ad2eb67a917d648db7ae8cc9a44957c637a7b1eb","cyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-chapter-748","cyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-chapter-581",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-cover.jpg"]
