Chapter 358: Long Time No See, Starscream (Part II)

~7 min read 1,233 words

It is a pity that the 【AllSpark】 was already shattered after the Battle of Las Vegas.

Although Sun Cheng obtained several fragments of the 【AllSpark】, he also discovered through a series of experiments that the fragments still retained a portion of the 【AllSpark】's power.

However, their research into the 【AllSpark】 fragments is still very rudimentary, and whether the fragments can cause incredible changes to 【Spark】s or even bodies like the 【AllSpark】 can is still an unknown; these all require a long time to verify.

But time waits for no one; Sun Cheng has offended too many factions in this world, so he is constantly worried about being targeted and retaliated against. His new body was precisely manufactured in a rush under circumstances of extreme insecurity.

However, although it was produced in a rush, in order to solve the problem of insufficient energy that would inevitably be encountered, the Workers painstakingly designed many types of plans. In the end, the Workers specifically added an enhanced version of an energy core, similar in principle to those applied to robots, inside his new body.

As for the drawbacks, it is like a human having a second artificial heart implanted in their body while their own heart is still intact.

Considering that the Workers could not achieve perfect compatibility between his Spark and this set of enhanced energy cores, to avoid leaving any hidden dangers, it can only be used as the energy source for the body's power system.

"... It's not all bad; at the very least, relying solely on the 【Spark】 within me, it would be impossible to achieve this kind of speed..."

From Tianwo County in northwest Guangxi to the extreme northern naval port of Severodvinsk in Russia, even the straight-line distance exceeds eight thousand kilometers.

If one were to rely on ordinary human air transport for this distance, even taking a straight line, it would take at least ten-plus hours to arrive at the fastest.

However, under the full burst of Sun Cheng's speed, it was even faster than the time he had previously expected. About fifty-plus minutes after sending that communication to the Pioneer, the Su-30 fighter jet he had transformed into had already entered the territory of Severodvinsk.

The energy consumption while maintaining an optical stealth state is not small; maintaining it for an hour is no different from fighting a small-scale battle.

Seeing that the destination was about to be reached, Sun Cheng deactivated his optical stealth.

He did not expect that just after deactivating his stealth and exposing himself in the open high altitude, his body was quickly illuminated by several electromagnetic waves emitted from the ground toward the sky.

"Russian air defense radar?"

Sun Cheng quickly realized what these electromagnetic waves illuminating him were, but he did not pay much attention to them and continued to fly rapidly toward the Severodvinsk naval port area where the shipyard was located.

Soon, without even needing to activate his core to scan the city below, the explosions and firelight that almost dyed a patch of the sky red entered Sun Cheng's field of vision.

"Still exchanging fire... It seems I've arrived just in time..."

With a movement of his core, waves of scanning radio waves were immediately emitted from his body. In just a short dozen seconds, Sun Cheng successfully constructed a complete map of the entire Severodvinsk area within his core, "... With my current position as the center, a full-terrain scan within a radius of fifty kilometers is complete... Apart from the four Decepticons already locked on, no other targets were found... Is it just a probe..."

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

The suppression that Leader-class Warriors like Optimus Prime and Megatron have over other Decepticons is comprehensive; the current Sun Cheng is indeed no match for them.

Only a Leader can oppose a Leader—this sentence is branded deep within the core of every Cybertronian!

But as long as it is not the two of them in person, even when facing Starscream, who is known for his speed, Sun Cheng has the confidence to contend with him for a while.

There are indeed only four Decepticons invading Severodvinsk. The electromagnetic spectrum he captured shows that the opponents are all just Cannon Fodder-class Warriors like Brawl that can be mass-produced; no matter how high-level they are, they are no match for him. Clearly, it is not that Megatron has discovered the deal between Sun Cheng and Russia.

Previously, when he accidentally stumbled upon the faking-death Megatron in the Mariana Trench, he had read quite a bit of Megatron's Memory Data. Now, Sun Cheng can be said to be the person who understands Megatron the best.

With Megatron's insidiousness and cold-bloodedness, he is now definitely at the top of the other's kill list. Once he discovers Sun Cheng's whereabouts, there is a high probability he will personally take action to destroy this lowly crawler who might threaten his faked-death plan. Therefore, the Decepticons invading Severodvinsk cannot have been sent by Megatron.

"Then who could it be? Starscream? Barricade? Soundwave? Or perhaps The Fallen?"

Constantly speculating in his mind about who could have discovered his secret, the brief distraction and thinking clearly did not affect Sun Cheng's entry into the battlefield.

Noticing that the Pioneer unit below, which was struggling to cope with the invading Decepticons with the cooperation of the Russian Army, was already covered in wounds, he instantly locked onto the four Decepticons. At the same time, he rapidly reduced his flight altitude and speed, descending from an altitude of tens of thousands of meters to less than five thousand meters in a very short time, about to enter the battlefield.

However, just at this moment, Sun Cheng unexpectedly received a very regular radio transmission.

"Warning, unidentified aircraft, you have entered Russian airspace. Please identify yourself immediately and fly north to leave Russian airspace."

"Repeating, unidentified aircraft, you have entered Russian airspace. Please identify yourself immediately and fly north to leave Russian airspace. Otherwise, we will take necessary countermeasures!"

"The reaction speed is so slow!"

Sun Cheng was just about to ignore the Russian Army's radio warning and force his way into the battlefield when suddenly his heart stirred, "Careless!"

The brand-new transformation form he had collected not long ago was a Su-30MKK fighter jet equipped by the Chinese Air Force. This model is a specific version of the Su-30 fighter that Russia only exports to China, and although different versions of fighter jets look similar in general, if one looks closely, there are actually many differences that can easily distinguish the specific model.

In other words, if someone with ulterior motives were to continue to delve deeper, it would very likely expose his relationship with China.

After pondering for a moment, Sun Cheng thought about it and still linked to the other party's radio channel, saying in that stiff, mechanical-sounding Russian: "I am Frenzy, I learned of the Decepticon invasion from the Pioneer and have come to provide support!"

After identifying himself, he had finally flown over the battlefield and could no longer afford to be distracted by thinking about the Russian Army's reaction or the potential negative impact of his deal with China being exposed.

He was going to throw himself with all his might into this first battle after changing into his new body!
