Chapter 469: Each Has Their Own Victories and Defeats

~7 min read 1,395 words

"Boom!"

A shell grazed Sun Cheng's body, exploding one meter away at his side.

It was Soundwave's sonic cannon; the airflow kicked up by the explosion made him stagger before he could stand steady.

Yet, Laserbeak took the opportunity to dive at low altitude, strafing his shoulders and head with a round of bullets; the splashing sparks ignited a growing anger in his heart.

"Fire!"

Sun Cheng gave a cold shout. He was very wary of Soundwave, but these Decepticons truly had iron in their heads—the more cowardly you acted, the less respect you earned. Only by hurting them could one trade for a moment of peace.

After receiving his order, Pioneer and Thunder did not hesitate to draw their weapons, launching a counterattack against the suddenly aggressive Soundwave and Laserbeak.

Raising his hand to aim at the sky, he fired a shot, but Sun Cheng's hurried blast was easily dodged by Laserbeak.

Soundwave had already charged before him, his left hand transforming into a high-speed machine gun, continuously strafing him.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Bullets struck Sun Cheng's body, continuously splashing sparks across the surface armor of his chassis.

Sun Cheng ignored it; such weapons caused him almost zero damage.

So, he reached straight for his lower back, pulled out a plasma cannon, fired a shot at Soundwave, and then quickly approached him while continuing to fire.

Pioneer had already entangled Laserbeak, leaving it no time to harass the battlefield further.

Thunder coordinated with Sun Cheng with great tacit understanding, together entangling Soundwave.

Soundwave was clearly somewhat wary of Sun Cheng's plasma cannon, which gave Thunder an opportunity. He suddenly pulled out a plasma cannon from the side to launch a sneak attack; a plasma blast struck Soundwave's lower back, sending him staggering seven or eight meters away, with a large number of cracks appearing on his waist and many metal fragments scattering on the ground.

"Crawl away, insect!"

Seeing Sun Cheng pull out a Ship-Slaying Blade from who knows where and arrive not far from him, Soundwave roared angrily, and the sonic cannon on his shoulder aimed at his head and fired with a boom.

Sun Cheng subconsciously blocked with the Ship-Slaying Blade in front of him. The next moment, a massive force struck; he was instantly knocked back over ten meters just like Soundwave had been, nearly colliding with Scavenger, who was standing nearby seemingly hesitating whether he should help.

"Get further away!"

Sun Cheng did not expect Scavenger to come and help; the fact that this guy hadn't rebelled on the spot was already a help.

However, Scavenger was still of some use to him, so he hurriedly shouted a warning; as for whether he listened, that was up to his own fate.

Thunder was truly worthy of being a Blackout Awakening body; having almost perfectly inherited Blackout's combat memories, even though he was not yet fully familiar with this new body, he still displayed astonishing combat power.

A High-Speed Combat Missile struck Soundwave, interrupting his attempt to fire another shot at Sun Cheng, and then he rushed into close quarters to stick to his opponent.

"Well done!"

Sun Cheng praised him; he had to admit that the combat of Cybertronians possessed a strange beauty.

Soundwave's main weapon was the sonic cannon on his shoulder, along with a plasma pistol of equally impressive power; the rest were much the same as other Decepticon Warriors.

But Thunder was completely different; he was a war machine that existed for war. Just the various missiles configured within his combat system exceeded one hundred and sixty.

The ultra-micro missiles manufactured using Cybertron Technology were perhaps only twenty or thirty centimeters long, not even as thick as a roll of paper, but the high-explosive gunpowder specially configured inside for armor-piercing and generating extremely high temperatures made Soundwave start to dodge seriously after accidentally suffering a loss.

The two Decepticons went back and forth, both utilizing speed to quickly close or open the distance, continuously using the weapons on their bodies to shoot at each other.

However, the stalemate did not last long. The gap between Thunder's speed and Soundwave's was very obvious. As the battle grew more intense, the slight lack of coordination in his chassis immediately caught Soundwave's attention. Taking advantage of his sudden lack of preparation, Soundwave's left hand suddenly transformed into six or seven tentacles like transparent liquid, which he whipped out with force, striking Thunder and sending him flying.

Sun Cheng had just seen Thunder fighting him quite well, so he distracted himself to help Pioneer, opening a hole in one of Laserbeak's wings.

Once he saw the sonic cannon on Soundwave's shoulder aiming at Thunder's head, his expression changed. He reached into his abdomen, suddenly threw out a round, melon-shaped object, and struck Soundwave.

Scavenger, who was on the side, had his expression change drastically, and he turned and ran.

Unfortunately, he had only just turned around when a violent electromagnetic wave suddenly erupted, and then Soundwave's roar resounded across the entire field.

Pulse Grenade!

A small electromagnetic weapon personally proposed by Sun Cheng and developed by the engineers.

It had already undergone multiple tests here in Severodvinsk; one Pulse Grenade could paralyze a Decepticon like Scavenger for four or five minutes and cause great damage to the components inside his body.

However, the disadvantage was the same as human grenades: once thrown, it was an area-of-effect weapon. Within a seventy-meter radius centered on the explosion point, all equipment containing electronic components and friendly Decepticons would be affected.

Sun Cheng himself was no exception, but fortunately, he had activated the Anti-Electromagnetic Interference System within his body at the first moment, so the impact was not significant.

However, Soundwave and Thunder, who were at the center of the explosion, were much more miserable. White smoke was rising from Thunder's entire body, clearly indicating that the components inside him had been damaged in the explosion.

The most miserable was Soundwave. He looked as if he had just walked out of a hot spring, with white steam rising from his body. Countless tentacles had shot out from all over him at some point, dancing up and down along with the master's ferocious gaze.

"Who gave you the courage to provoke me? Frenzy..."

Soundwave's voice was low, a pair of electronic eyes staring fixedly at him, cold and ferocious, "Starscream, is it..."

Sneering as he looked at him, the dozen or so tentacles behind him suddenly shot out, targeting Thunder, but they stopped ten centimeters above his chest and head. "Hand over the fragment; that is not something you can possess."

"You can try!"

Sun Cheng was not annoyed. Thunder's disadvantage was that he had not yet fully mastered his new body; otherwise, with the body he had originally prepared for himself, his strength alone would not fear Soundwave at all.

His performance in fighting Soundwave alone earlier had already exceeded his own expectations.

However, Soundwave's strength also exceeded his expectations.

Sun Cheng had not expected a single Pulse Grenade to solve him, but Soundwave's current state clearly showed he had been holding something back.

This battle could not continue. He snapped his fingers lightly, and the dozen or so Electromagnetic Weapon Systems hidden throughout the Base were activated simultaneously, locking onto Soundwave at the same time.

At the same time, a strong electromagnetic Barrier appeared once again over the sky of Severodvinsk.

"Twelve sets of Electromagnetic Pulse Weapons, and there are four large pulse bombs in the naval port that can destroy all electronic components within a thirty-five-kilometer radius. These were originally prepared to deal with the Autobots... Lord Soundwave, do you want to try the power on behalf of the Autobots in advance?"

His face was full of a triumphant smile, which also made him appear increasingly ferocious.

This was the backup plan Sun Cheng had left in Severodvinsk. Ever since he was discovered by Starscream, he had been preparing for the second Decepticon Legion invasion that might come at any time.

The territory he could not hold, others should not think of taking away either.

Once it truly reached a critical moment, Sun Cheng would not mind detonating the entire Severodvinsk; at worst, he would slink back to the real world and never enter this magical Transformers universe again.

Set a small goal first, for example, remember it in 1 second: Shukerju
