Chapter 63: Human Wisdom
Since Blackout no longer allowed him to intervene in the tracking of Megatron and the AllSpark, whether the other party looked down on his combat power or was simply arrogant was not something Sun Cheng needed to concern himself with, so he expressed no objection to this.
As for Blackout asking him to monitor Starscream, Sun Cheng didn't take it to heart at all.
You must be joking!
Ever since Soundwave suffered at the hands of Starscream, although the other party had not taken the initiative to contact him again, he had captured suspected Decepticon frequencies within the United States more than once; the frequency was not only complex but also showed an upward trend, and what made him even more uneasy was that many of these sets of Decepticon frequencies did not exist in his database.
This undoubtedly indicated that after forcing Soundwave into dormancy, Starscream's forces were constantly surging.
Sun Cheng did not doubt that if the other party knew he possessed intelligence on the 【AllSpark】, he would absolutely not let him go.
Therefore, after being disdainfully cast aside by Blackout, he was happy to be idle and leisurely flew back to his base located in Colorado.
Onslaught had not contacted him, and because he was unsure if that guy had finished the body he promised him, Sun Cheng was in no rush to go find him.
For several days in a row, he stayed in his base studying the production-type Decepticon he had gotten from Onslaught, and while he was at it, Sun Cheng also began to think about ways to quickly improve his combat power under the current body conditions.
Two rapid-fire machine guns couldn't be called bad; as long as it wasn't a siege operation, they were decent enough for dealing with human soldiers and the like.
However, their power was truly limited.
Not long ago, when engaging Bumblebee, Sun Cheng had already realized that even though he possessed air superiority, he was still unable to cause effective damage to the other party, which made him very vigilant.
Because in Sun Cheng's heart, all Decepticons, including Onslaught, could be his potential enemies; as a transmigrator, he felt very insecure in this world, which made him very vigilant about everything.
"... Whir..."
Inside a Laboratory somewhere in the base, Sun Cheng, who had transformed back into his human form, stood in front of a 120-inch LCD monitor, his eyes staring fixedly at the screen.
Although he had requested a Decepticon Worker specialized in production from Onslaught, the time had been too short after all, and the Cybertron Technology he currently mastered was sparse, so the vast majority of the equipment in the entire base was purchased from the human world.
The huge LCD monitor in front of Sun Cheng was the largest monitor he could purchase on the United States market.
Of course, compared to its price and manufacturer, what he cared about more now was that several structural anatomy diagrams were currently appearing on the monitor, and the screen was densely covered with sets of data.
"... My current Decepticon body is composed of millions of precision small parts, and various parts within the body can be partially adjusted when necessary... According to simulations, my body can indeed accommodate a few missiles inside the body temporarily like Onslaught, but it would affect the body's flexibility and defense, and the storage space would definitely not be as large as his..."
With his arms crossed over his chest, the thinking Sun Cheng looked more like a human than a Decepticon.
What was currently displayed on the screen in front of him were the respective structural diagrams of his current body in human form and Reaper Drone form, which he had restored through some enhanced high-precision testing equipment.
After repeated simulations, Sun Cheng discovered with great disappointment that unless he could master more Cybertron military technology, he really did not possess the possibility of modifying his current body.
This was truly a terrible discovery!
Because Sun Cheng did not know all the ideas and thoughts Onslaught had when designing this body for him, he even suspected that slightly modifying some parts might cause other parts to start affecting normal operation.
However, there is always a way out; after realizing that he could not design powerful new weapons himself and equip them into his body to achieve immediate Enhancement effects like Onslaught.
After only being disappointed for a while, Sun Cheng quickly changed his train of thought; he began to consider using ready-made things to achieve the effect of strengthening himself.
For example, equipping his body with human missiles!
Sun Cheng having this idea actually stemmed from his current Reaper Drone form.
Previously, while studying his Reaper Drone form, Sun Cheng had hacked into the General Atomics database to query some design information about it.
It was also because of this that he noticed the US military's Reaper Drone was equipped with combat units, and they had even undergone rigorous testing and had already conducted some combat tests.
It was precisely this discovery that immediately made him feel a flash of inspiration, and he suddenly wondered if he could also equip human missiles to increase his lethality.
Thus, continuing along this line of thought, after analyzing his current body structure in detail and repeatedly simulating, he finally arrived at this answer that made him overjoyed.
"It's possible, completely possible. The US military's Reaper Drone is equipped with AGM-114 (Hellfire) anti-tank missiles. Although the Hellfire's volume is too large to be stored inside my body, it is not very heavy. If I make some micro-adjustments to the body and only carry them externally in Reaper Drone mode, then I can equip at least 8 Hellfires..."
Once this train of thought opened up, Sun Cheng felt inspiration surging like a tide!
"The US military's Reaper Drone isn't equipped with close-combat units, but I can also try to see if I can equip myself with two aviation rocket pods; this guy is much more powerful than an aviation machine gun..."
