Chapter 818: The Last Peaceful Time

The Last Peaceful Time

"It is the last peaceful time!"

Sun Cheng looked at the dozens of photos that Thunder had just sent over, muttering to himself incessantly.

These were photos just sent back by the reconnaissance satellites they had launched into lunar orbit to monitor the Decepticon Base on the Moon.

Not long ago, the reconnaissance satellites captured a meteor shower falling onto the far side of the Moon; from the very orderly formation, it was not difficult to draw a conclusion.

It is the Decepticon!

"It should be the advance team sent by Shockwave!"

Calculating the time, it had been almost half a year since Sun Cheng joined forces with Starscream to besiege Soundwave and Astrotrain.

He had previously learned from Astrotrain's Memory Data that Shockwave had already led an army to march toward the Solar System and had sent an advance team ahead of time.

Now, calculating the time, it was about time for the other party to arrive in the Solar System.

"Pass down the order: from today on, the early warning level within Base No. 2 and on Trindade Island is raised to the highest level, ready at any time to deal with a possible war!"

Once Shockwave arrives, Megatron will soon be able to possess a body.

By that time, the Decepticon Legion under his command will inevitably seek revenge on the Autobot, and incidentally, deal with him as well.

The Decepticon and the Autobot are sworn enemies; furthermore, although Megatron was killed by the American boy—Sam—using the AllSpark during the Battle of Las Vegas, it was Optimus Prime who truly held him back.

Now that Sam is long gone, Megatron will obviously be more willing to go find Optimus Prime to settle this score.

And Sun Cheng himself will not be much safer than Optimus Prime.

In Megatron's heart, I fear his hatred for him is only slightly less than for Optimus Prime, or perhaps even greater.

After all, the secret buried in the deepest part of his heart had been pried into, and the other party was still a low-level Decepticon he looked down upon; it would be strange if that Tyrant could swallow this insult.

Base No. 2 is not safe; after all, Earth is only so big.

If the Decepticon were truly determined to search, they would only need to scatter some replica warriors across the five continents, and I believe it would not take long for them to find Sun Cheng's lair.

What's more, Trindade Island is near South America, and a guy as smart as Starscream has likely already guessed Sun Cheng's general hiding place by now.

If Megatron returns, that guy would surely sell him out without hesitation.

Having Mirage convey his orders, Sun Cheng, whose mood had become uneasy due to the discovery of Shockwave's advance team, felt it necessary to conduct a comprehensive investigation and understanding of his current assets.

Thus, following his call again, it seemed that because Explorer 203 was assisting the Decepticon engineers in building cargo spaceships...

Mirage, who had been a bit bored recently due to a lack of interaction with companions, controlled a robot avatar and personally came to Sun Cheng's lounge to introduce his current assets to him.

"Commander, according to your orders, over the past few months, we have reduced our material inventory line, which was originally maintained at around 70%, to the current 20%, going all out to start the production and manufacturing of various war materials, robots, and weapon equipment!"

"Commander" is a new title for himself that Sun Cheng only recently began to promote among his subordinates.

A small change in title also indicated a change in his attitude.

Since he had already guessed that he would inevitably bear the brunt once Megatron returned.

Sun Cheng no longer hides his ambitions; the successive establishment of Base No. 2 and the Mars Base No. 1 and No. 2, combined with the resource supply from the 【Transformers Great Universe】 and the real world, gave him the confidence to fight a long-term war of attrition against any force, including the Decepticon Legion or even the Autobot, as long as he is not defeated by a single surprise attack.

Moreover, this change in title also represented that Sun Cheng had officially begun to clean up some hidden dangers he had created with his own hands in the past.

Although the vast majority of the Decepticon under his command had never met Onslaught or Skyfire, some ambiguous propaganda conducted for past needs had led some of Sun Cheng's Decepticon engineers to firmly believe to this day that he was at least in cooperation with Onslaught.

This is not a good phenomenon!

A long time ago, Sun Cheng was evaluating whether, if one day that Onslaught, who was hiding somewhere in hibernation, returned, it would affect his status and power.

And the answer he got himself was affirmative, so as he was about to start changing into a New Body and several Elite Warrior had appeared among his subordinates, he began to take action to clean up these hidden dangers.

Just like the Decepticon Legion, this force that Sun Cheng built with one hand has, and can only have, one commander, and that is himself.

As for Onslaught and Skyfire, if they are sensible enough to join his command in the future, he would not mind appointing them as Senior Commander, Chief Scientist, or even Military Commander, just as Megatron treated Shockwave, Starscream, and the others.

Anyway, it is already the worst result, so he does not care about having one or two more enemies.

Sun Cheng listened carefully, and Mirage's robot avatar also introduced it very meticulously.

"... As of yesterday, the daily mining capacity of all minerals under Base No. 2 has reached about 1.73 million tons; all factories can assemble and produce a total of 861 robots of various types per day..."

"... The four cultivation centers currently in use are going all out to cultivate various types of Worker at an average speed of 43 per day; in terms of upgrading, there will be about 30 Worker per day on average who have received at least 50 days of training plus 20 days of vocational training upgrading to the second-level profession!"

"... There are already 3 Elite Warrior, 14 Advanced Warrior under the base; 7 Decepticon Senior Engineer, 49 Engineer..."

"... Currently, our factories can produce about 114 units of various Heavy Artillery and Anti-Aircraft System per day, with a daily production capacity of 4,377 shells/Missile of various types! The inventory of medium-range ballistic missiles with a range of over 2,700 kilometers is increasing at a rate of about 4 per day!"

"... The Ghost Fleet is also continuing to expand; currently, our Yasen-class nuclear submarine can launch 4 ships simultaneously every 33 days, and the total number has reached 34."

"... 475 liters of High-purity Energy Liquid can be converted per day, and the imitation of Energy Pillar is progressing rapidly; it is expected that the first imitated Energy Pillar will be successfully manufactured in 12 days at the latest!"

"... The manufacturing of the Explorer-class Cargo Spaceship is going smoothly; currently, two are being built simultaneously, one of which has completed 72.6% of the construction task, and the other has completed 69.3%!"

Mirage introduced it in great detail, and Sun Cheng listened very carefully.

He had a premonition that this might be the last peaceful time, so he prepared to get a thorough grasp of his assets before the war arrived.

And the purpose of doing so is self-evident; through a more detailed understanding of the power he holds, Sun Cheng became increasingly confident about the war that would descend at an unknown time.
