Chapter 778: The 761st Chapter: The Battle of the Black Market (Part 5)

~7 min read 1,394 words

Trindade Island is merely an inconspicuous island in the South Atlantic Ocean with a total area of no more than ten square kilometers.

If Sun Cheng and his group hadn't built the Black Market here, even the vast majority of Brazilians would never have heard the name of this island.

Yet, this very inconspicuous little island is now about to face an attack from hundreds of meteors.

The anti-aircraft radar on the island issued a warning at the very first moment!

After these anti-aircraft radars were upgraded by the Decepticon engineers under Sun Cheng, their detection range reached over 1,700 kilometers, and their altitude coverage exceeded 230 kilometers.

They were originally prepared for the possibility that some nuclear-armed country in North America might suddenly have a lapse in judgment one day and fire a nuclear bomb at the island, but it was unexpected that they would prove their worth here!

Shortly after the meteors entered the atmosphere, the anti-aircraft radar on Trindade Island captured the dense cluster of meteors. After data processing, when the Decepticon engineers discovered that the meteors' trajectory was aimed directly at Trindade Island, they immediately realized the problem and sounded the air defense alarm.

Meteors are a relatively common type of celestial body in the universe, although a large number of meteors fall to Earth from outer space every year.

But a scene like this, with hundreds of meteors simultaneously heading straight for an island less than a dozen kilometers in size, is something you don't even need to think about to know the probability is infinitely close to zero.

Almost the moment after the report from the radar, Sun Cheng deduced who was targeting him.

"Starscream, is it... has the revenge finally come..."

Regarding this Decepticon titan with whom he had cooperated several times, Sun Cheng had never let down his guard.

Soundwave's memory clearly recorded one case after another of Starscream stirring up trouble within the Decepticon Legion in the past, and countless Decepticons had been backstabbed by him through various conspiratorial means.

Swindle, who still hasn't pledged loyalty to Sun Cheng to this day, is the best example!

Some time ago, Starscream suddenly sent Barricade to the Black Market, wanting to drag him into the war against the Autobots.

From that moment on, Sun Cheng realized that the cooperative relationship between him and Starscream had likely come to an end.

This is also why he crushed Barricade without hesitation; he does not have the depth of character and means that Megatron possesses, so appearing childish by being the first to tear off the mask when Starscream was preparing to strike at him was, in a way, a form of self-protection.

Looking up at the sky, with the visual acuity of this Frenzy Body, although the "meteor shower" still hundreds of kilometers high in the sky was blurry, he could already barely see it.

"Since you've come, there's no need to go back; be buried here in its entirety!"

Staring coldly at the sky, Sun Cheng felt no fear in his heart.

A severe lack of a sense of security always made him like to be fully prepared before things happened.

Since he chose to tear off the mask with Starscream when the latter wanted to scheme against him, he naturally wouldn't forget to strengthen his defenses afterward.

It would be no exaggeration to say that the current Trindade Island is armed to the teeth.

Following Sun Cheng's order, all the Decepticons on the island began to act in an orderly manner.

Squads of Combat Robots, under the control of Workers, held weapons and marched in neat formations, rushing into the living facilities built for humans on the island.

"Warning, warning, the air defense early warning system has observed that a large number of meteors are about to fall. Please, honored guests on the island, follow the guidance immediately and proceed to the shelters to take cover temporarily!"

"Warning, warning, the air defense early warning system has observed that a large number of meteors are about to fall. Please, honored guests on the island, follow the guidance immediately and proceed to the shelters to take cover temporarily!"

"Warning, warning, the air defense early warning system has observed that a large number of meteors are about to fall. Please, honored guests on the island, follow the guidance immediately and proceed to the shelters to take cover temporarily!"

The alert sound rang out incessantly on the island, and a portion of the non-combatant Decepticons were sent to arrange for the staff from various countries on the island to temporarily evacuate to the Sub-base to avoid danger.

As for whether this would expose the Sub-base, Sun Cheng didn't really care about that.

However, although the order to protect the staff from various countries and evacuate them was given, the Decepticons would not coddle them.

The non-combatant Decepticons responsible for arranging the evacuation would each be protected by at least one squad of Combat Robots; after they repeated the warning and reminder to evacuate three times, all those who refused or complained would be forcibly evacuated.

For a time, the island was filled with the sound of cursing in various languages from different countries.

Unfortunately, Sun Cheng and his group no longer had the heart to care about them; ensuring their survival was already the greatest kindness Sun Cheng could show these Black Market customers.

As the meteor shower in the sky became increasingly visible, one after another, anti-aircraft missile launchers hidden in the mountains or underground on Trindade Island and nearby islands were driven out.

Under the control of the Decepticons, the island's Anti-Aircraft System fired one missile after another without delay after calibrating the data, shooting toward the meteor shower aimed directly at Trindade Island.

At the same time, on the sea surface a dozen kilometers away from Trindade Island, on the lonely escort ship transformed by Hailishi, rows of vertical missile launch ports opened simultaneously. Amidst thick white smoke and flames, dozens of anti-aircraft missiles flew out in unison, appearing particularly striking on the desolate sea.

And after the first round of anti-aircraft missiles took off, with an interval of less than thirty seconds, after replenishing ammunition from his magazine, a second batch of anti-aircraft missiles sprayed out after simple calibration.

As a future war beast that Sun Cheng is focusing on cultivating, Hailishi already possesses all the characteristics of an Arsenal Ship imagined by military personnel of various countries on Earth.

A group of Decepticon engineers specifically designed his vertical launch system, magazine, and missile types according to requirements. This bulky big guy can carry up to 752 missiles of various types in his magazine at once, and when needed, he can completely cover a designated battlefield with firepower single-handedly.

The Ghost Fleet is also in action!

This fleet under Sun Cheng was entirely composed of new-style submarines upgraded and modified by the Decepticon Senior Engineer—Hephaestus—based on the Russian Yasen-class attack nuclear submarine.

Until about half a year ago, Base No. 2, including Sun Cheng himself, did not actually place too much importance on this fleet. Therefore, before the battle against The Fallen, the entire Base No. 2 had only built eight such submarines. Most of the time, they were controlled by trained Workers to provide escort for Cargo Submarines.

However, with the decent performance of the Yasen Modified-class attack nuclear submarine during the battle against The Fallen, Sun Cheng and his Decepticons rediscovered the charm of these underwater giants.

Over the past six months, Hephaestus, who had been transferred to supervise the construction of the Explorer-class Cargo Spaceship, diverted his attention to supervise the construction of eight more Yasen Modified.

After the Black Market was established, Sun Cheng mobilized ten Yasen Modified-class attack nuclear submarines from the east coast of the Pacific Ocean to form a Ghost Fleet, which has long been patrolling the sea area within 500 kilometers centered on Trindade Island.

Following his order, the ten underwater giants did not fear exposure like the nuclear submarines of human nations.

They quickly surfaced to near the water's surface, and at the same time, rows of submarine-launched missile ports were opened. Accompanied by water columns shooting into the sky, special anti-aircraft missiles designed entirely for intercepting Nuclear Warheads soared into the sky.

Today, Trindade Island is destined to shock everyone who is watching it.
