Chapter 46: Spark (Begging for recommendations, follows, and tips)

The AllSpark!

It really is the AllSpark!

When Sun Cheng had just emerged from the water storage tank, he felt a faint, wondrous energy fluctuation constantly emanating from afar, stimulating his 【Core】 until it almost began to descend into chaos; Sun Cheng was so excited he nearly jumped up.

【AllSpark】, that is the 【AllSpark】.

The supreme organism from the legends of the planet Cybertron; according to the attack report, it is the Decepticons' source of life and the final resting place of their souls, possessing the great power to allow any Decepticon to evolve to a higher level!

At the thought that he could finally shake off the threat of Soundwave, while simultaneously allowing the lowest-level Core within his body to evolve to a higher level, he could not help but grow agitated.

Hurriedly jumping out of the water storage tank, Sun Cheng cautiously hid in a blind spot of the tank.

Although he longed to fly to the 【AllSpark】 immediately, his cautious self was still able to think calmly.

There is more than meets the eye beneath the Hoover Dam; if it is truly as he speculated, that the Yankees discovered the 【AllSpark】 that crashed on Earth over ninety years ago and secretly transported it here for research, then there is a high probability that the 【AllSpark】's capabilities have been exposed.

In that case, even if this place isn't riddled with traps, it is bound to be heavily guarded.

For the sake of caution, he first released several sets of Insect Scouts, letting them scout in the direction where he sensed the 【AllSpark】's energy fluctuations, and incidentally, to probe the defensive situation here for him.

Soon, a continuous stream of images was transmitted back from the Insect Scouts.

The place where Sun Cheng was currently located was clearly at least several kilometers away from the Hoover Dam; this was a massive Base, and the interior of the Base was brightly lit. In just a few minutes, the Insect Scouts discovered several workshop-like factories filled with all kinds of machinery.

Inside the Base, one could not only see armed guards patrolling back and forth, but also workers and technical personnel wearing various identification badges coming and going.

Controlling one of the Insect Scouts to move closer to those technical personnel and observing for a while, he was astonished to discover that this Base was filled with engineers in the fields of energy, mechanical equipment manufacturing, metal materials, as well as artificial intelligence and Computer Science. With such a dense distribution of high-level technical personnel, he would absolutely believe it if someone said this was the premier high-level research center of the United States.

"Sector 7, is that what this refers to?"

The Insect Scout saw this term on the badge of a manager, and Sun Cheng felt thoughtful.

Come to think of it, not long ago when he infiltrated Tucson to investigate clues regarding the 【AllSpark】, he was accidentally detected by a strange detector, and soon after, several men in black appeared nearby; he remembered those men in black claimed to be from 'Sector 7'.

At the time, Sun Cheng thought it was because he and his group had left a trail after attacking the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, allowing the U. S. government to come up with detection equipment targeting Decepticons in just half a month.

Thinking about it carefully, with the technology of the planet Cybertron, if it could really be cracked by the Americans in such a short time, this country's cheat codes would be too overpowered.

The Insect Scouts soon confirmed that the Americans had already realized the 【AllSpark】's special influence on electronic equipment, so they not only built a thick isolation wall using lead plates but also artificially created an electromagnetic interference protection zone behind the wall, to the point that the Insect Scouts he released could not get close to the 【AllSpark】 at all and were all wiped out within the electromagnetic interference zone.

However, having released several sets of Insect Scouts one after another, he did manage to figure out the patrol frequency and routes of the guards.

Having quickly mapped out a relatively safe route for himself, Sun Cheng did not delay and immediately dashed toward the direction of the 【AllSpark】.

Running fast all the way, he utilized the high-speed mobility of his New Body.

It was also thanks to the fact that this Base was filled with all kinds of machinery; although there were many staff members, with the help of the 【Spy Template】 and the Insect Scouts, Sun Cheng was still able to find visual blind spots before being exposed.

Therefore, he did not expose himself throughout the entire dash until he broke through the lead wall.

After charging head-on into the electromagnetic interference zone, Sun Cheng could not help but show a painful expression on his face.

For Mechanical Life like the Decepticons, electromagnetic interference is undoubtedly the most cost-effective targeting solution.

The bodies of the Decepticons are filled with various circuits and silicon crystals; although they are more advanced than those manufactured by humans, they are still subject to electromagnetic interference, just to varying degrees.

Enduring the stinging sensation that made his Brain feel as if it were about to burst, in order to rush out of the interference zone as quickly as possible, Sun Cheng could no longer worry about hiding his figure. He increased his speed to the limit almost instantly, rushing out of the electromagnetic interference zone like an out-of-control race car speeding at high velocity.

"Boom!"

After rushing out of the interference zone, Sun Cheng, whose head was still somewhat chaotic, had not yet reacted when he felt something being knocked away by him.

Shaking his head, and soon after his 【Core】 was finally able to work normally, he looked closely. The first thing that entered his sight was a massive cube more than ten meters away. After carefully sensing the terrifying energy radiating from the cube that made him unable to help but tremble with excitement, could it be anything other than the 【AllSpark】?

Reluctantly withdrawing his gaze, Sun Cheng knew that although he was only a few steps away from the 【AllSpark】 now, he was in big trouble.

A pool of blood not far away, a corpse beside it, and a white Engineer wearing a hard hat and looking nervous just a few steps away from him, all proved one thing: Sun Cheng had been exposed.

"NBE (Non-Biological-Extraterrestrial, that is, non-biological entities from outside Earth)..."

Although he came to his senses a bit later than him, the white Engineer immediately shouted in a miserable and shrill voice, panicked.

Sun Cheng's heart sank. He immediately transformed back into his human form, raised his right palm to aim at the white Engineer who had discovered him, and used the Rapid-fire Machine Gun revealed in his palm to send him to meet God with two precise shots.

However, his goal had been achieved.

The shrill screams and the sudden sound of gunfire immediately caused the group of technical personnel who were researching the 【AllSpark】 nearby to react. After noticing Sun Cheng by following the sound, they either shouted for help or screamed as they fled, and a sharp red alarm immediately sounded.

"Damn it, I don't have much time left!"

Realizing the severity of the problem, Sun Cheng resisted the urge to turn and flee, and dashed toward the massive 【AllSpark】 not far away.

Soon he realized how correct his decision had been!

When Sun Cheng arrived at a distance of just three to five meters from the 【AllSpark】, he clearly felt abundant energy constantly surging from the 【AllSpark】 into his body. In an instant, he felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, his whole body warm and comfortable.

And when he finally arrived in front of the 【AllSpark】 and impatiently reached out to touch it, the dark blue electric light around the 【AllSpark】 danced wildly, soon enveloping Sun Cheng within it.

Even more violent energy, along with a great power that even he could not clearly describe, surged crazily into Sun Cheng's body along with a massive amount of information. After a brief circulation, it began to converge toward the 【Core】 located in his Brain!

Accompanied by a stinging pain that felt as if it were about to crush his consciousness, the next moment, a violent wave of dizziness washed over his heart.

Sun Cheng still remembered where he was, so he desperately mustered a breath of strength, not letting himself pass out completely.

The entire process lasted for several full minutes. Until he felt that no more energy or information was surging into his body, he hesitated and withdrew his arm, which had felt like it was being pulled by a magnet since just a moment ago.

Subconsciously, he attempted to wake the 【Core】 to feel the changes in himself.

When a piece of information suddenly fed back from the 【Core】 into Sun Cheng's head, his eyes suddenly widened, and he could not help but exclaim: "Spark!"

PS:

1. I had just typed half of it, read it, wasn't very satisfied, so I deleted it and rewrote it.

2. The author updates two chapters daily. Because I still have to work to make a living during the day, when there is a backlog, I will arrange to pay it off on my days off.

3. Thanks again to the two readers 'Purple Rice Sunflower' and 'Monkey Stick Devil' for their tips.

4. By the way, let's discuss the protagonist's future transformation. I have a proposal: J-10 or JH-7, you choose one. To be honest, I don't really want to use the J-11.
