Chapter 650: The Forge of Solus Prime (Part 2) Seeking Subscriptions

~7 min read 1,273 words

"A hammer... something even the Primes dreamed of... could it be that?"

Hovering above the magma in the underground volcanic space, Sun Cheng looked with some excitement at the two massive weapons on the reef in the center of the magma before him, as a holy relic from Cybertronian legend flashed through his mind—the Forge of Solus Prime.

The Forge of Solus Prime, as the name suggests, is the weapon of Solus Prime, one of the thirteen Primes in Cybertronian legend.

Solus Prime was one of the thirteen Primes, and also the one among the thirteen most skilled in the forging of weapons and armor.

Ever since he learned that The Fallen, one of the legendary thirteen Primes of Cybertron, was sleeping on the Moon, Sun Cheng had begun collecting intelligence regarding the thirteen Primes of Cybertron.

In Frenzy's memory, there was not much usable information about the thirteen Primes.

After all, he was born relatively late, during the middle to late stages of the first Cybertronian Civil War.

However, over the past year or so, Sun Cheng had already read the memories of more than one Autobot and Decepticon.

Among them, the Decepticon elder—Jetfire—was undoubtedly the one who benefited him the most.

Jetfire was a Cybertronian born during the era of the Council of Ancients; he was a scholar, a great Scientist, and both a teacher and friend to Shockwave.

His special era and background meant that Jetfire's Memory Chip not only preserved a massive amount of Cybertronian science and technology, but also a large amount of lost Cybertronian history, and even mythology, from the era of the Council of Ancients and the even earlier era of Quintesson rule.

In Jetfire's memory, there were four of the thirteen Primes he knew the least about: Prima, Vector Prime, Solus Prime, and Maximus.

Prima has the most legends on the planet Cybertron, but because of that, he is the one with the fewest real records left behind.

The vast majority of Cybertronians only know that Prima was the first of the thirteen Primes to be born, but most of what has been passed down about him is merely mythology; perhaps the Prime Dynasty knows more.

Vector Prime is very mysterious; it is said that he was once the first Leader of the Autobots, but he disappeared at some unknown point later on.

Jetfire always suspected that he might be that Alpha Trion who had been guarding the Iacon Archives, the capital of the Autobots, but Alpha Trion basically never left the archives, and he had no way to verify his conjecture before leaving the planet Cybertron.

Later, as the Decepticons won the war against the Autobots and occupied Iacon, they did not find Alpha Trion either; heaven knows where this mysterious guy, suspected to be a Prime, had hidden himself.

Maximus is equally mysterious; he was once the wise man among the thirteen Primes. Legend has it that when the Primes were able to resist a powerful evil entity in ancient times, the wisdom of Maximus played a huge role.

However, for some unknown reason, he later fell, and even used certain means to sow discord among the remaining Primes, leading to heavy casualties.

Afterward, it is said that seven Primes left Cybertron specifically to hunt down the fallen Maximus, and subsequently, all seven Primes and Maximus went missing, their fates unknown.

As for Solus Prime, there was also very little information about her in Jetfire's memory.

Even though Jetfire was born during the era of the Council of Ancients, the thirteen Primes had already disappeared by the time he was born.

Regarding Solus Prime, Jetfire had only seen introductions in some ancient documents in the library, stating that she was the only female among the thirteen Primes.

She was the greatest master of weapon and equipment forging among the Primes; from Prima's weapon—the Star Saber—to Megatronus's weapon—the Requiem Blaster—Solus Prime, who was born with the power of creation, forged a powerful weapon for almost every Prime.

And Solus Prime's own weapon also came from her own hands.

It was a massive forging hammer, which she named after herself—the Forge of Solus Prime.

A wealth of information flashed through Sun Cheng's mind in an instant; he looked excitedly at the giant forging hammer on the small reef in the center of the magma below, the long-lost excitement almost making him unable to control his body.

The Forge of Solus Prime, the weapon Solus Prime designed and built for herself.

Legend has it that it can shatter all obstacles and is a rare divine artifact.

Of course, if there were truly a fool who used it as a weapon, it would truly be a waste of this divine artifact.

On the planet Cybertron, among some legends about Solus Prime, her Forge of Solus Prime also possessed the creative divine power of its owner, capable of forging the most primitive materials into various components needed for weapons and equipment; it is an incredible holy relic that can forge divine artifacts.

"No wonder the Beast General would say this is a holy relic that even the Primes dreamed of..."

Sun Cheng muttered to himself; the Forge of Solus Prime can forge divine artifacts, which perfectly matches the Beast General's claim; it indeed possesses a magic that makes even the Primes covet it.

On the reef in the center of the magma sea, changes had begun to occur between the two weapons nestled together.

Dazzling azure electric arcs, it is unknown how they were generated, drifted between the two weapons, occasionally striking them.

However, Sun Cheng did not feel that the electric arcs were harming the two weapons; on the contrary, as the electric arcs continued to strike, a peculiar humming sound became exceptionally prominent in the empty and quiet underground volcanic space.

At the same time, the Requiem Blaster, gradually enveloped by the electric arcs, began to emit an emotional fluctuation known as joy.

Increasingly intense energy fluctuations began to dissipate from the Requiem Blaster, and Sun Cheng soon gave a soft exclamation.

He suddenly saw orange-yellow sparks, the size of glass beads, flying rapidly out of the magma below, and then, as if attracted by something, they all flew toward the Requiem Blaster and were completely devoured by it.

And as these dense, small sparks flew out, the magma below Sun Cheng changed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At first, the magma beneath him, though not active, still radiated astonishing heat.

But gradually, the orange-yellow magma slowly turned dark red, then turned dark, and finally became exactly the same as the reef where the two weapons were located.

Two beams of light shot from Sun Cheng's eyes, and after a brief scan of the changing magma, he understood the reason.

"The heat in the magma is being sucked away; the Requiem Blaster is replenishing its energy... could it be that the Forge of Solus Prime can unlock the control measures left behind by Solus Prime?"

This surprising discovery made Sun Cheng, who was originally preparing to take the Requiem Blaster and the Forge of Solus Prime, temporarily suppress the impulse in his heart.

In any case, the two divine artifacts were right there; no one was competing with him, and they weren't going anywhere.

If the Requiem Blaster, this divine artifact that once helped The Fallen stand alone against the other six powerful Primes, regained its former power.

Then even if he didn't get the Forge of Solus Prime on this trip, Sun Cheng would still have made a huge profit.

An unrestricted Requiem Blaster once created a holy relic like the 【AllSpark】.
