Chapter 850: Total War 4

"A large-scale Decepticon arrival detected within the Arctic Circle?"

When Sun Cheng received the intelligence, more than four hours had already passed since the Polar Bear's spy satellites discovered the incident in the Arctic Circle.

This intelligence was urgently sent over by Mola, transmitted from the Severodvinsk side.

Previously, when cooperating with the Polar Bear, Sun Cheng had sold them a large batch of advanced equipment and electronic components.

With the Polar Bear's current technology, they could not yet detect the issues within these devices and electronic components, but the vast majority of them had been left with backdoors.

Therefore, the consequence was that in certain necessary situations, Sun Cheng and his people could control those devices and anything installed with those electronic components at any time, such as the Polar Bear's spy satellites.

Although Base No. 2 had also launched some of its own satellites into Earth's outer orbit, to avoid arousing the vigilance of various human nations, the number was not large.

They basically covered most of South America, the South Pacific, and the South Atlantic, while for relevant regions in the Northern Hemisphere, they needed to rely on "copying" some reconnaissance intelligence from the Polar Bear's military satellites.

As a far-northern country with most of its territory within the Arctic Circle, the Polar Bear had specifically deployed satellites in outer space to monitor the Arctic Circle region to prevent potential surprise attacks from the Arctic Ocean.

Not only the Arctic Ocean, but also its two neighbors within the Arctic Circle—the United States and Newfoundland—were all key reconnaissance targets for the Polar Bear.

Because of this, when the meteor shower appeared, the Polar Bear's relevant departments immediately increased the intensity of reconnaissance in the areas where the meteor shower might land, but they unexpectedly had a surprise harvest.

The intelligence was first transmitted to Thunder, and then delivered to Sun Cheng's hands via Thunder.

After carefully viewing all the photos taken by the Polar Bear satellites that the spies left in North Port had just obtained from the metal storage disk, his doubts only increased.

"Why would the Decepticons land in Newfoundland?"

This question indeed left Sun Cheng somewhat confused for a moment!

If the Decepticons had raided Trindade Island again, or even landed in the South American region, he would not have felt any surprise.

Not to mention that he had once peered into Megatron's memory and been targeted by this tyrant of the Decepticon Legion.

Just in the past two years, he had teamed up with the Autobots to kill Soundwave and Astrotrain, captured Thundercracker, and the number of Decepticons who had died at the hands of Sun Cheng and his forces was at least seven or eight hundred, if not a thousand.

These points destined Sun Cheng to be on the Decepticon Legion's kill list, so it would not be strange for him and his forces to be attacked again.

Thunder did not rush to leave after delivering the intelligence; hearing his self-talk, he also frowned and thought for a moment, then answered uncertainly: "Could it be that they are preparing to take action against humans? Their landing site is not far from the United States."

The United States was the strongest human force on Earth; if the Decepticons wanted to take action against Earth, targeting and attacking the United States was inevitable.

This answer did remind Sun Cheng, but after thinking about it seriously for a while, he shook his head.

The Decepticon Legion would definitely target Earth; after all, even in the universe, although life-bearing planets like this were not non-existent, they were very rare, and it was often difficult for one to be born within a star field of tens or even hundreds of light-years.

Moreover, Earth had various resources that were very useful to Cybertronians; although the ores were not as abundant as some metal planets, they had the advantage of being complete.

Most importantly, Earth had billions of indigenous lives—humans—who, although physically weak, possessed intelligence.

After the millions-year-long civil war ended, Cybertron had long been drained of all kinds of resources by the Autobots and Decepticons, and this included the Decepticons and Autobots themselves.

The physiological structure of Cybertronians was completely different from humans; if relying solely on natural gestation, even in the most ideal environment, it would take at least more than a dozen years to gestate a new life.

Therefore, any Cybertronian ruler with a bit of ambition would not ignore the billions of humans after discovering Earth; they were very ideal candidates for slaves.

If the Decepticons intended to launch operations against Earth, the United States would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.

But the location where they landed was too far from the U. S. mainland, and the commanders of the Decepticon Legion were not military illiterates who knew nothing about command.

On the contrary, even if they lacked combat experience with Earthlings, the Decepticon Legion and the Autobots had fought on Cybertron for millions of years, and most of their commanders possessed excellent command talents.

The initial attack on the Second and Fifth Fleets, which severely damaged the U. S. military hegemony, should have been commanded by Starscream himself; clearly, he knew exactly where the U. S.'s weaknesses lay.

Even if another Decepticon commander were to lead the military action against the U. S., they would likely choose to land directly in the U. S.'s core urban areas, on one hand to cause as much destruction and human casualties as possible to force humans into fear, and on the other hand to tie the hands of their military personnel.

That was why Sun Cheng thought Thunder's consideration was incorrect, not to mention that there were also Autobots on Earth, the mortal enemies of the Decepticon Legion.

If Megatron already possessed a new body and was preparing to start making trouble, then the first to be attacked would be either the Autobots or himself.

"So only a few possibilities remain!"

Sun Cheng vaguely felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, but limited by the severe lack of intelligence he possessed, doubts still remained.

"Huan, mobilize a satellite and keep an eye on the place where the Decepticons and the U. S. military are fighting!"

Judging from the photos taken by the Polar Bear's spy satellites, there were nearly a hundred Decepticons who landed in the Newfoundland region.

Relying on the memory data of Decepticons like Soundwave, Astrotrain, and Thundercracker, Sun Cheng was shocked to recognize the identities of several powerful Decepticons among the attacking group.

"Triple Changer—Blitzwing is personally commanding this attack..."

If the memory data of those Decepticons that Sun Cheng obtained was correct, then in the coming period, an unprecedented battle would likely break out in the Arctic Circle.

No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as a war.

Triple Changer—Blitzwing, one of the two most successful test subjects in the Triple Changer modification program led by Shockwave, alongside Astrotrain.

He was Shockwave's right-hand man, a main general of the Decepticon Legion, and one of the high-level commanders who could mobilize large numbers of Decepticon Warriors on land and in the air during wartime.

Thundercracker's memory data showed that Blitzwing was the commander of the Decepticon advance team that had arrived in the Solar System not long ago.

Arriving on Earth with him were several Decepticon Elite Warriors and dozens of Advanced Warriors.

Blitzwing personally led the Decepticons to appear on Earth, and as soon as they landed, they attacked a U. S. military force stationed in Newfoundland, though it was unclear what they were doing.

Given the brain capacity of that group of U. S. politicians who had been stifled for more than a year, a war between the Decepticons and the U. S. military was likely unavoidable!
