Chapter 616: Decisive Battle in Egypt (End) Seeking Subscriptions

Perhaps it was because the missiles Hailishi launched into the territory were too sudden, or perhaps Egypt had long neglected training, leaving its internal defenses lax.

In a single volley, eighty anti-ship missiles were not intercepted even once, all striking the target area simultaneously.

Amidst the ear-piercing explosions, the missiles continuously striking the Pyramid were the most beautiful fireworks in this dark night.

Sun Cheng and Thunder were also standing on a small hill; although the Giza Plateau was high, it was relatively flat.

Apart from the small valley where they were currently standing, looking out for several kilometers, one could see no other towering buildings besides some sporadically distributed pyramids.

The wide field of vision, combined with the special body structure of Cybertronians, gave them all universal night vision capabilities.

So, even standing a kilometer away, Sun Cheng and his group could still get a rough idea of the situation at the Pyramid.

On the Pyramid, as the first anti-ship missile fell, the high-explosive explosive in the warhead impacted the tower body, immediately causing a massive explosion.

This type of anti-ship missile, designed for warships, was no less powerful when used against buildings.

Almost every exploding missile could instantly shatter dozens or even hundreds of huge stones connected together, triggering sheets of tower stones above, below, and around to begin falling.

Although Hailishi could not be considered smart, he was, after all, a Decepticon, and his computing power and control were far superior to the main control systems of human-made warships.

Almost none of the missiles fired from the warship he transformed into missed; except for three or four that landed at the base of the Pyramid, all the rest hit the tower body.

Cracks in the stones on the tower body were visible everywhere, and the huge flying debris even formed a "sandstorm" nearby.

Under the bombardment of dozens of missiles, the tip of that Pyramid had already revealed some metallic veins, and several huge craters had appeared on the tower body.

"Enough... Hailishi, continue to reload missiles. You and the Pathfinder pay attention to concealment and wait for my next order..."

After issuing new orders to Hailishi, who was over two hundred kilometers away, Sun Cheng took the lead and jumped down from the small hill in the valley.

"Cover me!"

He gave the order to Thunder; as for Scavenger, who recently seemed to have fully awakened all his previous memories and become uncontrollable, Sun Cheng ignored him.

This guy's body was still modified by Sun Cheng's engineers, and his strength was comparable to some Advanced Decepticon Warriors, but he was still slightly inferior to Thunder, let alone Sun Cheng himself, who possessed Quasi-Commander-class combat power.

Because it had just been hit by eighty missiles, that Nameless Pyramid now looked dilapidated.

When they were still seven or eight hundred meters away from the Pyramid, they discovered that the sandy ground was covered with splashed stone fragments.

As they got closer and closer to the Pyramid, the more stone fragments were scattered on the ground.

The three Decepticons soon arrived at the bottom of the Pyramid, and looking up, Scavenger couldn't help but gasp.

"What powerful destructive force!"

He knew that Sun Cheng had recently added a new subordinate, a big guy who looked only slightly smaller than the City-sized Transformer—Devastator.

It was said that the big guy named Hailishi transformed into a warship.

However, because he had only met him once and Hailishi was sent away by Sun Cheng, Scavenger had very limited knowledge of the other party's situation.

He had not expected this guy to possess such powerful destructive force.

"Clatter!"

The destruction caused by the missile bombardment was very severe; the rigorous structure of the Pyramid had been broken, and falling stones were constantly dropping from above.

Sun Cheng ignored it all, and after arriving at the bottom of the Pyramid, he climbed up the Pyramid without the slightest hesitation or pause.

The missiles had attacked Cairo, and no matter how poor the efficiency of the Egyptian military was, it wouldn't take long for them to find the location of the attack.

Moreover, the super weapon inside the Pyramid was created by The Fallen.

The electromagnetic pulse bomb from a short while ago, as well as the U. S. military's fuel-air explosive, would at most make his injuries heavier unless they all hit The Fallen.

Sun Cheng did not believe that a Prime of the planet Cybertron would be solved so easily.

Furthermore, he was not sure if the other party had left any hidden tricks on the super weapon he had built, so for the sake of caution, there was not much time left for him to operate.

Climbing and jumping, it took only a dozen seconds for Sun Cheng to climb to a height of more than sixty meters on the Pyramid.

There, a conspicuous large hole was very glaring; it had been hit by several missiles, so the tower stones had been cleared away, revealing a deep hole leading to the interior of the Pyramid.

The deep hole was only five or six meters high, but for Sun Cheng, it was enough.

"Thunder, Scavenger, you two stand guard outside!"

After Sun Cheng gave the order, he didn't care about Scavenger's thoughts and went straight into the deep hole.

This pyramid, which was named 'Huofu' in the real world, had no name in the 【Transformers Grand Universe】.

According to Jetfire's memory, this Nameless Pyramid was built in the ancient past by the Decepticon followers created by The Fallen, who enslaved the ancient humans on Earth, solely for the purpose of hiding his weapon capable of destroying the planet.

It seemed that in order to prevent other Primes who followed him from discovering it, the outer wall of this pyramid was very thick.

The cast stones seemed to be mixed with many trace elements, so much so that they formed a special isolation layer, which not only effectively isolated the metal or energy fluctuations emitted by the super weapon hidden inside the pyramid, but also prevented humans and Cybertronians from attempting to peek inside using electromagnetic detection and other means from the outside.

The deep hole blasted out by the missiles was more than ten meters deep, and Sun Cheng soon walked to the deepest part.

Looking at the stones blocking his continued progress in front of him, he raised his right hand, the metal on his right arm squirmed for a moment, and two combat missiles immediately emerged, blasting toward the stones in front of him.

"Boom!"

The explosion kicked up a cloud of dust, and the shattered stone fragments kept pattering against Sun Cheng's body.

Two beams of light shot out from his eyes, penetrating the smoke to continue probing inward.

"There are still stones inside!"

His back squirmed again, and four more combat missiles rose from the left side of his back; at the thought of his mind, they immediately shot into the smoke that had not yet dissipated in front.

"Boom!"

Another burst of explosions kicked up even thicker smoke and stone fragments than before.

Sun Cheng walked quickly into the smoke, and the missile launch rack that had just risen on his back was also retracted into his body.

At the same time, he drew his Ship-Slaying Blade, holding it in his hand and waving it constantly, hacking down the stones blocking the top of the cave and the jagged ones in front that had been blasted.

Soon, he walked to the end of the cave, where there were still many stones blocking the way, but a smile appeared on Sun Cheng's face.

A piece of bright silver metal that looked like it was growing in the stone was revealed; its composition was very special, not steel or silver, but a very rare alloy.

"Found it!"

Sun Cheng felt the Spark in his chest begin to burn violently.

He brandished the Ship-Slaying Blade in his hand, cutting continuously at the rocks surrounding the metal like a sharp blade slicing through tofu.

Ten-plus minutes later, accompanied by a sudden gush of turbid air, Sun Cheng slammed a foot into a small crack in the rocks not far away.

"Snap!"

Hundreds of kilograms of rubble flew inward, the crack grew larger and larger, and at the same time, more and more turbid air surged out from the opening.

Sun Cheng used both hands and feet, hacking with the blade while kicking with his foot.

After only a few dozen seconds, a hole that was growing larger and larger gradually appeared before him.

When the hole was already three or four meters wide, Sun Cheng finally stopped.

Then, he lowered his body and stretched his head into the hole; the next moment, a massive metal structure at least two or three hundred meters high, shaped somewhat like a signal tower and somewhat like a metal Long Spear rising into the sky, was revealed within his field of vision.

And it was precisely the superweapon created by The Fallen in Jetfire's memory—the Stellar Extraction Tower.

Looking at the massive metal structure in front of him, Sun Cheng slowly crawled into the hole and climbed onto the metal structure.

Countless metal joints rapidly extended from his arms and even his body, sticking to the metal structure like the tentacles of an octopus.

This was precisely the purpose of Sun Cheng's trip: to steal this legendary superweapon, invented by The Fallen, which could destroy stars to create the AllSpark.

A continuous stream of data began to be transmitted from this legendary superweapon back into Sun Cheng's head.

What he did not know was that almost the very moment he began to read this superweapon, beneath the bottom of the Red Sea, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly opened and looked toward the southwest.

"Who is it? Who is stealing my weapon?"

The owner of the scarlet eyes was a ferocious mechanical Warrior standing dozens of meters tall.

The Fallen's current state was clearly very poor; dozens of Electromagnetic Pulse Bombs had caused problems for many electronic components within his body, and white smoke was continuously seeping out from inside his chassis.

What was worse was that not long ago, he had been ambushed by the Autobots and humans.

A weapon manufactured by humans had exploded, as luck would have it, three or four meters away from him, and with nowhere to hide, he had almost taken a heavy aerial bomb head-on.

His body, which had not yet fully healed, now had injuries that were even more severe.

So much so that although he had followed the energy fluctuations emitted by the Matrix of Leadership on Ironhide, he had come all the way to the bottom of the Red Sea.

But not long after, he had lost the other party's trail!

"Soundwave, tell me what happened at the Stellar Extraction Tower... and find the Autobots for me..."

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly uncontrollable, as arrogant as The Fallen was, he had to suppress the frustration in his heart and send a message to Soundwave, who was in outer space, ordering him to investigate the cause of the incident for him.

He did not have to wait long!

A few minutes later, The Fallen received intelligence transmitted back from Soundwave in outer space: "Lord The Fallen, the Decepticon traitor—Frenzy has attacked the Stellar Extraction Tower; it seems he wants to steal your weapon, my lord... As for the Autobots, I have not found Ironhide's trail... However, I have discovered the Autobot convoy transporting Optimus Prime's remains; they have already arrived at Abuli in Sudan and are continuing to head north along the highway. It looks like they are preparing to enter Egypt."

"Egypt!"

The Fallen coldly glanced in the direction of Cairo, where the Stellar Extraction Tower was located. "Soundwave's subordinate, the traitor—Frenzy, is it? Let you jump around for a while longer!"

The injuries on The Fallen's body had affected him for millions of years, so much so that he had to spend a massive amount of time in the middle to sleep in order to slowly recover from his injuries.

In this terrible state, he did not want to stay for even one more second.

The top priority was to quickly take back the Matrix of Leadership and then allow himself to return to his prime.

After slightly adjusting his position, The Fallen immediately continued to rush toward the southern part of Egypt.
