Chapter 652: The Forge of Solus Prime (End) Please Subscribe

~8 min read 1,491 words

The Forge of Solus Prime did not deceive Sun Cheng; countless liquid metal joints extended from his arm.

These joints wrapped around the Forge of Solus Prime, and the Forge of Solus Prime did not stop Sun Cheng from probing it.

Very quickly, a massive amount of information surged from the Forge of Solus Prime into Sun Cheng's mind.

He frowned slightly, looked down at the Forge of Solus Prime without a word, and silently digested the information transmitted from the Forge of Solus Prime.

The Forge of Solus Prime indeed did not deceive Sun Cheng; this weapon could not be used by anyone other than a Prime, which was likely why the "Beast General," whose lifespan was nearing its end, had hidden it in the magma.

The Beast General could not use the Forge of Solus Prime either, so what use was there in taking it?

The Forge of Solus Prime had just transmitted a lot of information to Sun Cheng, so he had not come away empty-handed.

As this information was gradually digested, he finally understood why the Forge of Solus Prime was on Earth.

During the First Cybertronian Civil War, relying on powerful military strength, the Decepticon Legion, under the command of Megatron, had once briefly captured the Autobot headquarters—Iacon.

It was during that battle that Decepticon soldiers broke into the central area and began assembling forces to prepare for an attack on the Shengxian Dian, which was used to worship the Thirteen Primes of Cybertron.

The actions of the Decepticons finally annoyed Alpha Trion, who had always stayed in the Iacon Archives and never participated in the struggles between the Autobots and Decepticons.

Alpha Trion personally rushed to guard the Shengxian Dian, and when the Autobot garrison outside the Shengxian Dian was completely wiped out and the Decepticons were seen charging in, he launched several weapons belonging to the Thirteen Primes stored within the Shengxian Dian into outer space; along with them, he also disposed of the Decepticons' lethal weapons.

However, Alpha Trion clearly underestimated the cunning of the Decepticons; although he returned to the Iacon Archives in time, Megatron and Soundwave, who personally directed that battle, still obtained a lot of classified intelligence from the Iacon Archives, even though that intelligence had all been encrypted by Alpha Trion.

Setting that aside, as for this Forge of Solus Prime, after being launched into outer space, it followed a flight trajectory designed for it by Alpha Trion, traveled several light-years, and finally landed on Earth.

Sun Cheng did not care where the Forge of Solus Prime had crashed when it arrived on Earth; after digesting the information from the Forge of Solus Prime, his furrowed brow smoothed out again.

Because from the information he had just digested, Sun Cheng unexpectedly discovered that it was not just the Forge of Solus Prime that had been launched into outer space by Alpha Trion and crashed on Earth; he saw at least four other different relics of the Primes.

Looking at the Forge of Solus Prime in his hand, after weighing his words, he spoke again: "Forge of Solus Prime, the current situation on Earth is very chaotic. Although I come from the Decepticons, I do not advocate violence and war... I can provide you with energy to help you recover, and I can also provide you with shelter so that other evil people cannot find you..."

"But I need enough power to protect everything I cherish, including my companions and my kin..."

"So in exchange, I hope you can help me find those relics of the Primes that were launched to Earth with you... I need them to fight against the evil The Fallen!"

The Shengxian Dian of Iacon had also appeared in Jetfire's memories; it was a place built long before the Council of Ancients era, used to enshrine the relics of the legendary Thirteen Primes of Cybertron.

However, because it was built so early and its builders were long since untraceable, during the Council of Ancients era and even for a long time during the subsequent revolution and the early stages of the First Civil War, the Shengxian Dian was only used as a Normal building constructed by predecessors to commemorate the Thirteen Primes.

That is why the Forge of Solus Prime and some other relics of the Primes had always been placed in the holy hall without ever being coveted.

Sun Cheng now basically agreed with Jetfire's speculation that Alpha Trion, who had lived in seclusion in the Iacon Archives for a long time, was very likely one of the Thirteen Primes, Vector Prime.

He still could not figure out why this Prime had launched the relics of the Primes from the Shengxian Dian to Earth.

But this did not affect Sun Cheng's search for other relics of the Primes, even if they were likely restricted to being used only by Primes, just like the Forge of Solus Prime.

Weapons like the Requiem Blaster and the Forge of Solus Prime consumed a terrifying amount of energy.

In the blink of an eye, it had been nearly two years since Sun Cheng could freely enter the 【Transformers Multiverse】; having dealt with Cybertronian civilization all along, he could now barely be considered a scholar.

Moreover, he had always been dealing with a group of politicians and conspirators, so even when he spoke, it was now three parts truth and seven parts falsehood, and he could do so without letting people easily distinguish it.

This was also the reason he had the confidence to win over the Forge of Solus Prime; the other party was, after all, just a weapon. Even if it had wisdom, could it have a higher IQ than his subordinate, the Super Intelligence—Huan?

The Forge of Solus Prime did not remain silent for long this time; as if thinking for a moment, it replied to Sun Cheng with a humming sound.

"Very well! But I only have a special connection with the weapons I have forged; I can vaguely sense their locations. And the further the distance, the more blurred the sensing becomes."

"That is enough!"

Sun Cheng smiled dismissively; just because he couldn't use the weapons left behind by the Primes for now didn't mean he wouldn't be able to use them forever.

Now that he already had the Requiem Blaster and the Forge of Solus Prime, if he could obtain one or two more, in the future, as long as he could crack the control methods left by the Primes and gain the right to use any one of them, the improvement to his strength would be immense.

The Forge of Solus Prime possessed a very high level of self-awareness, so Sun Cheng did not intend to put it into the Spherical Space.

Having obtained what he wanted, he did not intend to continue staying in this underground volcanic space.

After thinking for a moment, he asked the Forge of Solus Prime: "Can you tell me, which of the items that can make you sense it is closest to us right now?"

The Forge of Solus Prime vibrated with a hum, and Sun Cheng could feel a peculiar electromagnetic wave being continuously released with the Forge of Solus Prime as the center.

After humming and trembling for dozens of seconds, it finally stopped.

"The weapon closest to me is very far from here, and the connection between me and it is very blurred, as if it is blocked by something..."

The hammer pulled Sun Cheng, pointing in a direction, "The only thing I can be sure of is that it is in that direction!"

Glancing at the direction it pointed, Sun Cheng nodded slightly; he could not be sure where the direction the Forge of Solus Prime mentioned was either.

However, this weapon was already in his hands, and there would be plenty of time to look for the others slowly in the future.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, immediately picked up the great hammer, flew to the top of this underground volcanic space, and swung the great hammer at the hard volcanic rock ceiling.

This Forge of Solus Prime did not live up to the name of a divine artifact; even if it could not use any of its abilities now, just being used as the simplest weapon, it was still indestructible.

In just a moment, he smashed out a passage and charged toward the outside.

……

PS:

I have adjusted the time when Alpha Trion launched the holy relics to Earth in the animated version from the fall of Iacon at the end of the Civil War to the period of the First Civil War.

Because there are many versions of the animation and comics, and the timing in some versions is very chaotic—some even have the Autobots and Decepticons frozen on Earth for millions of years after the end of the Civil War—this book focuses on the movie timeline.
