Chapter 654: Swindle Has Compromised (Please Subscribe)

Although the Forge of Solus Prime is restricted by Solus Prime so that only a Prime can use it, it is, after all, a powerful Yuanzu Weapon.

Even relying solely on the material of the weapon itself, it can still achieve the feat of being indestructible.

The rocks at the top of the underground volcanic space were all volcanic rock formed after magma cooled; although hard, they were as fragile as tofu in front of the Forge of Solus Prime.

Sun Cheng swung the Forge of Solus Prime, and it only took him a little over twenty minutes to smash out a passage and drill out from the foot of a mountain peak.

"Still Trindade Island... This is Danova Peak... So that's how it is..."

Swinging the Forge of Solus Prime as he drilled out from the volcanic space beneath Trindade Island, Sun Cheng discovered he had appeared at the foot of a familiar small mountain peak.

Over the past half month, he had also wandered around Trindade Island a few times, and had already memorized the terrain and all the mountain peaks on the island in his mind.

The mountain peak, only a few hundred meters high, that Sun Cheng saw when he returned to the surface was named Danova Peak; it is the highest peak on Trindade Island, at about 620-plus meters.

This mountain peak is said to be named after the Portuguese navigator João da Nova who first discovered this island, and the reason why the Engineer and the others built their Sub-base on the island on the second-highest Trindade Peak, rather than Danova Peak.

Is because Danova Peak is in the southern region of the island, and the Brazilian Navy soldier camp stationed on the island is too close to Danova Peak.

By comparison, Trindade Peak, located in the northwest of the island, is further away from the garrison on the island, and the nearby terrain is also more complex.

Because the Forge of Solus Prime possesses a relatively high level of self-awareness, Sun Cheng did not put it into the Spherical Space.

Carrying this weapon he had just found while treasure hunting, he quickly returned to the Sub-base on the island.

"Master, is this hammer the item you were looking for?"

Pioneer and the others all greeted him curiously, and seeing Sun Cheng return carrying a massive hammer-shaped weapon, their gazes could not help but fall upon the hammer.

"It is the one!"

Sun Cheng weighed the hammer, "The Forge of Solus Prime, the legendary weapon of the Prime Solus Prime! During the First Civil War, it was launched from the Shengxian Dian into outer space; I don't know how it ended up on Earth!"

Dealing with creatures like the Decepticons requires no schemes or tricks, because those things might be useful, but they are far less intimidating than powerful force and influence.

This point was something Starscream had taught Sun Cheng through personal experience.

Therefore, even though Swindle was also by Pioneer and the others' side, Sun Cheng had no intention of hiding it.

Swindle had never heard of the Forge of Solus Prime; after all, regarding the Thirteen Primes, on the planet Cybertron, even during the Council of Ancients era, there were those who believed and those who doubted.

However, he did understand the term "a Prime's weapon."

A look of greed immediately appeared in his eyes, and even the red light in his eyes began to flicker, not knowing what crooked idea he was hatching.

Glancing at Swindle, the expression on Sun Cheng's face immediately turned into impatience.

"You have disappointed me, Swindle!"

He looked at Swindle, his voice turning cold: "I gave you more than half a month to think, but what I got in return was a deception. Very well..."

Sun Cheng admitted that he had slightly underestimated Swindle; he had originally thought this guy should have just recovered his original consciousness, and having been pitted by Starscream and tortured by Megatron for so long, his personality had become abnormally vigilant, refusing to let go without a benefit.

But during the two days he spent in the underground volcanic space, because the waiting time was too boring, he had re-examined all of Swindle's actions since he voluntarily confessed his identity to him.

In an instant, Sun Cheng realized he had very likely been taken for a fool.

This guy might really know some Lockdown, but he likely never seriously considered contacting Lockdown from the very beginning.

He just wanted to continue obtaining benefits from him; of course, if he could do so without paying anything, that would be even better.

The more Sun Cheng pondered, the greater the suspicion in his heart grew.

"You can go!"

He said to Swindle: "I will not deal with you, but there is no longer a place for you here..."

Being dragged along by this guy for over half a month, no matter who discovered they might have been deceived by him, they probably wouldn't be in a good mood.

Sun Cheng's mood was also particularly terrible, but expelling Swindle was purely to force him to make a choice.

This guy's current situation is no better than his own; having betrayed Starscream and being intolerable to Megatron, if even he does not take him in.

Other than leaving Earth and the Decepticon Legion to join the Wanderer, Swindle could no longer have any other choice.

Sure enough, Swindle did not expect Sun Cheng to suddenly turn his guns around and issue an expulsion order directly to him.

Seeing that his expression did not seem fake, and that Pioneer and Thunder followed his eye signal and also turned to aim at him, Swindle panicked immediately.

"Lord Frenzy... no, Master Frenzy..."

It was audible that Swindle was truly panicked, to the point that even his form of address for Sun Cheng had changed.

Sun Cheng just looked at him with a cold and stern face, and this time there was no sign of relenting at all.

Pioneer had been with Sun Cheng for a while after all; he seemed to suddenly understand something, and he abruptly grabbed one of Swindle's arms, saying impatiently: "Let's go, you are no longer welcome here. Didn't you hear the Master's words?"

Thunder had recently become more and more like Xuan, with a tendency to become a cold Decepticon Warrior once again.

If Pioneer seemed to have read Sun Cheng's thoughts and was cooperating with him in acting, then Thunder was directly entering the fray.

He pulled out his Plasma Cannon and aimed it at Swindle's head.

"Leave immediately, this is the last warning!"

The cold cannon barrel of the hand cannon was aimed at Swindle's head, and the body of this cunning and hypocritical guy trembled violently.

Not until this moment did the last bit of doubt remaining in his heart dissipate.

Swindle finally realized that Sun Cheng had completely run out of patience and was preparing to expel him.

Thinking that as soon as he left here, he might soon be surrounded and captured by Starscream and the Decepticon Legion, he felt the Spark in his chest begin to beat slower.

After Starscream's second failed rebellion against Megatron, he looked as if he had completely abandoned the attempt to resist Megatron.

However, any Decepticon who knew a little about his personality knew that he had only become more cautious and cunning.

Starscream was waiting for a better opportunity to help him completely overthrow Megatron's command of the Decepticon Legion.

Before that opportunity arrived, he would act more loyal to Megatron than anyone else.

Regarding a guy like Swindle who had once resisted Megatron and had been personally ordered by this commander of the Decepticon Legion to be completely brainwashed and turned into a re-forged warrior, to fight for the Decepticon Legion for all eternity.

Starscream would be very happy to capture Swindle and offer him to Megatron again, and personally wipe away all the memories of this former ally.

That life where there were only false memories in one's head, not knowing when one would die in battle, only to be manufactured again and put into another fragile body, and then sacrificed in another battle.

Swindle only had to recall it slightly, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Seeing the Forerunner and Thunder pulling and dragging, preparing to drive him out of the Base.

Faced with the choice between losing his protection and playing his final trump card, Swindle finally made his decision.

"Lord Frenzy... no, Master... I will summon Lockdown to Earth right now... Master, Master Frenzy... please give me one last chance..."

With his back turned to him, a trace of a smile finally appeared on Sun Cheng's tense face.

Won!

I was delayed by taking someone out to dinner tonight, and after drinking a bit, my thinking isn't very clear.

Sorry, there is only one update today; I guarantee at least three updates tomorrow.
