Chapter 434: Resurrection

"Elder Script!"

Sun Cheng frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over the lines of patterns. He, who rarely showed fluctuations in expression, now wore a look of obvious struggle.

There is a Chinese saying that perfectly captures his current state of mind: a tiger eating a turtle—there is no way to sink one's teeth in!

Elder Script is a special form of writing that originated before the ancient times of Cybertronian civilization. Since he first transmigrated, Sun Cheng only knew that this script might have been created during the era of the Council of Ancients. Because Frenzy, whose body he had taken over, had not yet been born at that time, everything he knew came from the rumors of others.

But as his understanding of Cybertronian civilization grew, especially after he stole part of Megatron's memories by chance, Sun Cheng corrected some of his own misconceptions.

Elder Script was by no means born during the era of the Council of Ancients; it likely existed at the very beginning of Cybertronian civilization. It is said that it was first used by the royal family of Cybertron—the Primus Clan—which is why it was later mistakenly passed down as a script that only the Leader could understand.

Since transmigrating to the 【Transformers Universe】, he has come into contact with Elder Script many times.

Sun Cheng is well aware of the value of Elder Script, yet he has absolutely no way to deal with it.

Without anyone to teach him how to interpret it, there is simply no way to start cracking this legendary script.

Every Elder Script character looks like a pattern, and the amount of information conveyed within the pattern is clearly far more complex than a single character. It is just like the QR codes invented by humans on Earth; without a specialized decoding program, how many people would know what those QR codes are saying!

He took a deep breath, which seemed to calm the agitation of the Spark in his chest.

After Sun Cheng memorized those Elder Script characters, he simply stopped looking at them.

He walked straight to a huge display screen in the Laboratory and asked, "Huan, the discovery you wanted to tell me about, it wouldn't just be these Elder Script characters, would it?"

"Not entirely!"

Huan's voice came from the display screen in front of him. It could actually communicate with Sun Cheng directly or control robots, but in the Laboratory, it preferred this method.

In the Laboratory, what covered the sphere was not ordinary glass, but a Synthetic Crystal specially manufactured by the Engineers. It was specifically designed for testing 【AllSpark】 fragments to prevent the equipment in the Laboratory from being affected by the energy waves emitted by the fragments, which would cause the equipment to turn into those mindless Decepticons.

Sun Cheng did not know the specific manufacturing method and principles of the Synthetic Crystal very well; after all, although he also studied hard in hopes of mastering more Cybertron Technology.

But there were simply too many things he needed to distract himself with, so naturally, he could not get his wish in every aspect.

This Synthetic Crystal could even shield the radiation emitted by 【AllSpark】 fragments, which is why it was used by 'Huan' to test the sphere.

Judging from the results, the effect was quite good.

"... Master, because of your reminder earlier, I tried to activate the Laboratory's Barrier and then performed an Awakening on it within the equipment testing the 【AllSpark】 fragment... The test results were quite good. The Activator did indeed send an Awakening program to the main control computer connected to it immediately after being awakened, but I successfully blocked it... The Elder Script characters displayed on the equipment should be the content of the Awakening program..."

The so-called 'Barrier' refers to a special energy device experimentally manufactured within the Base. Once activated, it can consume a large amount of energy to create an Energy Shield covering a designated area, used to protect the area from being attacked by Energy Weapons.

In a sense, electromagnetic waves and various types of radiation are also special forms of energy, so the 'Barrier' also has a certain protective effect against the penetration of electromagnetic waves and radiation.

It is just that Atlas and the others do not have mature manufacturing technology in their database. What they have researched now is merely a product of their own exploration; not only is the energy consumption high and the coverage area small, but the stability is also not high, which is more than two or three generations behind the mature Energy Shield technology widely applied to Cybertronian Spaceships during the era of the Council of Ancients.

The Base's Energy Shield technology was also developed as one of the key research projects under Sun Cheng's suggestion.

Because of this, he himself knew exactly how much his currently mastered technology was worth.

"So... what else did you discover?" Sun Cheng pressed.

"The moment I awakened the Activator, I discovered that the Activator began to precisely locate our current position the first moment it was activated. So, I deceptively sent the Base's precise coordinates to it... As a result, after the Activator received the coordinates I sent, it immediately emitted an extremely strong Awakening program outward..."

"... Although I cannot interpret the Elder Script, by analyzing the intensity and direction of the energy pulses emitted by the Activator, and then calculating the consumption of the pulses in the air, I can generally deduce the theoretical location of the main control computer it is attempting to awaken..."

After speaking, the display screen immediately lit up. First, it showed a high-resolution map of Earth with a high scale, and on Earth, there were two dots, one yellow and one red, constantly flickering; they were surprisingly not far apart.

Sun Cheng saw it clearly, and his heart could not help but burn with excitement.

"The yellow dot represents the location of the Base, situated within Brazil... The red dot is the theoretical location I calculated where the energy pulses emitted by the Activator could reach based on the angle of emission. It is in Peru, not far from the place where you, Master, discovered the Activator..."

The display screen kept changing, and the scale of the high-resolution Earth map displayed on it changed bit by bit.

At first, it was a complete map of the Earth, but soon it became only the Western Hemisphere, then only South America, and then it kept zooming in bit by bit.

By the time the image finally settled on the 450-inch giant display screen, Sun Cheng's hands were already tightly clenched without him realizing it.

"... Huan..."

He asked with a voice trembling slightly with excitement: "Are you sure the calculation is correct..."

"Yes, Master, this is the answer after precise calculation. Of course, if the influence of weather and terrain on the energy pulse loss is taken into account, there may be a slight margin of error, but the error will not exceed thirty kilometers..."

"That is enough!"

Sun Cheng interrupted it. While quickly memorizing the map on the display when it finally settled, he modified it slightly, quickly locked onto the direction for Sprint, and sent him an emergency communication.

"... Sprint, put down all the work you have on hand for now and immediately head to the area circled on the map... I want you to use every means at your disposal, without exposing yourself, to find something for me..."

On the map, the final position representing the red dot was located at a place Sun Cheng was familiar with!

Looking at the terrain, it is 【Lake Titicaca】!
