Chapter 448: Skyfire (Part II)
"... Jetfire, you are the most talented young scholar I have ever met... I have known your father for a very long time, but unfortunately, his attitude toward the future was always pessimistic, and he was overly obsessed with peace. You are still young; I hope you can stay and help me. Zhelasasi Xueyuan needs you..."
"... You are Jetfire? Shockwave's capable assistant? The most outstanding scientist at Zhelasasi Xueyuan... I am Sentinel Prime, your Leader... I hope you can come and help me save this already decaying planet..."
"... Armor strength increased by two times, speed increased by nearly double... Your name is Jetfire, right? Not bad. Go back and tell Shockwave that I am very satisfied with the modifications to this batch of Warriors... Perhaps we should also take a new title to distinguish ourselves from those incompetents... Got it. From today on, we shall be called the 【Decepticon】..."
"Heh, ridiculous nobles, royal family... The Decepticons do not need an incompetent king; they need an invincible Leader who can lead them to victory..."
"... Is this little guy Jetfire?... You seem to be afraid of me. It seems you have already guessed who I am... That's right, I am Megatronus, one of the legendary Thirteen Primes... Oh, almost forgot, my name now is 【The Fallen】..."
"Go... to the corner of the galaxy, to that barren planet... You are his descendant; you will surely be able to find that thing..."
"... I want the 【Matrix of Leadership】... Find it, and then bring it to me..."
"..."
Sun Cheng suddenly opened his eyes. A flash of shock flickered in them, but there was even more secret joy and excitement!
He had once peeked into Megatron's memory when he was still very weak.
The memory data of that Decepticon Leader was chaotic and disordered, and it seemed there was no pattern to speak of.
Because of that, he only obtained very limited things from that peeking. Although he learned of Megatron's past, he did not obtain any information that could truly improve his own strength.
But this time, it was completely different!
Sun Cheng was not sure if it was because he was much stronger now than he was then, or if the Pathfinder named 【Jetfire】 in front of him was not as strong as Megatron.
Without encountering the slightest resistance, he had actually found the 【Memory Chip】 of 【Jetfire】 with ease and stolen his memories.
"Master, it will be dawn soon!"
As soon as Pathfinder saw him open his eyes, he hurriedly whispered a reminder.
On the floor of the exhibition hall not far away, there was a pool of thick blood, and two guards were slumped there.
It turned out that a short while ago, the two guards had remembered their duties and walked out of the guard room, preparing to patrol.
When they arrived at this exhibition hall, although he had not yet discovered anything unusual, Pathfinder, whose personality was extremely similar to his master's, naturally would not allow any unexpected situations to arise, so he decisively took care of them.
As for the other guard, he had carefully come over to investigate after noticing something amiss, and ultimately met the same fate.
Pathfinder had already vaguely guessed what his master had been doing just now, but seeing that nearly three hours had passed and it was about to be dawn, he naturally had to offer a reminder.
"Give me some time... very soon..."
Sun Cheng gently rubbed his temple, a habit he had when thinking or suffering from a headache back when he was a human.
However, this action was clearly useless for a Mechanical Lifeform like a Decepticon, having read too much of 【Jetfire】's memory all at once.
Now, Sun Cheng only felt as if his head were about to explode; in just a few short hours, he had lived through the entire life of a Pathfinder who had been born for over a million years.
Although 【Jetfire】, like the vast majority of Mechanical Lifeforms on Cybertron, had entered a slumber lasting millions of years due to the civil war and the Cosmic Rust.
However, the life experiences of this guy had all flooded into Sun Cheng's head in an extremely short period, nearly causing the Core of this greedy fellow to crash.
But the harvest was undoubtedly huge!
Having previously stolen a portion of Megatron's memory data, although he had offended the leader of the Decepticon Legion because of it, Sun Cheng had indeed benefited greatly, and inevitably had some new ideas afterward.
This world was ultimately different from the reality he lived in before he transmigrated. Although that place also seemed to have started having some messy changes, it was generally relatively safe, and there was enough time and room for maneuver to build his own power.
But the 【Transformers Universe】 was different. The identity he had obtained in this world was actually a Decepticon, and a Decepticon whose strength was not particularly impressive at that.
To the humans on Earth, no matter how friendly he acted, he was no different from other Autobots and Decepticons, and even in the eyes of some radicals, he was just one of the extraterrestrial visitors invading Earth.
To make matters worse, the identity of Frenzy had given him an irreconcilable hostile faction from the very beginning—the Autobots.
Later, he was even used by Starscream to frame Soundwave, completely offending that person; it would be difficult not to set up his own shop.
It would be no exaggeration to say that he was forced to choose a hell-mode start in the 【Transformers Universe】.
Sun Cheng naturally could not obtain that many resources or time to develop, especially under the circumstances where Earth could become a new battlefield for the Autobots and Decepticons at any time.
Therefore, he had more than once fantasized about having another opportunity like the previous one someday.
He did not expect that his wish would actually be fulfilled now!
Originally, he was just curious about what kind of secret was hidden in the set of numbers suspected to be coordinates fed back by the 【AllSpark】 fragment. He did not expect that by following the clues, he would dig up a treasure, and a huge treasure that far exceeded Sun Cheng's imagination.
The Decepticon in front of him, who had transformed into a Blackbird high-speed reconnaissance plane, was actually an existence born during the Ancient Council period of Cybertronian civilization, and was a bona fide Decepticon veteran.
【Jetfire】 had once studied at the 【Zhelasasi Higher Technical Academy】 established by 【Shockwave】, was both a teacher and friend to 【Shockwave】, was a powerful Leader-class Warrior when he was young, and was one of the most outstanding scientists in the history of Cybertron.
Now, I am afraid there are not many people who still remember that the 【Decepticon Legion】, which now runs rampant across the entire galaxy and defeated the Autobots in two civil wars, was formerly the military armed force of the old Cybertron—the Global Defense Force.
It is estimated that even fewer people know that 【Jetfire】 once assisted 【Shockwave】 in transforming the millions of soldiers of the Global Defense Force into the more violent, stronger, and more bellicose 【Decepticons】, and even designed new bodies and weapons for Elite-class Warriors and even Decepticon Commanders.
Now, Sun Cheng had unexpectedly become one of those few who knew the truth.
Even more fortunately, he had stolen the entire memory of 【Jetfire】, this former Decepticon veteran!
In a word!
A huge profit!
PS:
Still only one update today; I need to think about how to write the next part.
Let's set a small goal first, for example, remember in 1 second: Bookeju mobile version reading URL:
