Chapter 885: Collision (Part II)

~7 min read 1,225 words

Onslaught's sudden outburst did not frighten Sun Cheng.

On the contrary, his face almost blossomed with a smile in that instant.

"Are you threatening me?"

Sun Cheng stared fixedly at Onslaught, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He was not worried about going head-to-head with Onslaught; although he did not know much about Onslaught, others knew him very well.

As the Intelligence Chief of the Decepticon Legion, Soundwave's memory database contained a very detailed profile on him.

Although Onslaught was one of the earliest high-ranking commanders to join the Decepticon Legion and a former titan,

as a perfectionist, he possessed a personality so arrogant it bordered on conceit. During the First Cybertronian Civil War, he had once served as Chief of Staff and formulated countless combat plans against the Autobots.

Because of his overly conceited nature, even if the combat plans he formulated had flaws, Onslaught would never allow any Decepticon to question him.

Consequently, during the First Civil War, Sentinel Prime and his subordinates exploited this personality flaw to win several key battles.

Later, when Megatron could no longer tolerate Onslaught, he was expelled from the top decision-making layer, and his military command was replaced by the scientist Shockwave.

Back then, due to his arrogant and conceited personality, Onslaught did not have many friends, even within the monster-filled Decepticon Legion.

The Combaticons, who belonged only to him, were also suppressed by Megatron during the First Cybertronian Civil War because multiple members participated in a rebellion.

So much so that when Sun Cheng first traveled to the 【Transformers Universe】 and met Onslaught, he was all alone.

It was precisely because he knew these things that he was not worried about going head-to-head with Onslaught.

This was also the reason why Sun Cheng personally led a team to arrive after learning of Onslaught's landing location on Earth.

Compared to a direct confrontation with Onslaught, he was more worried that this guy would immediately go into hiding after arriving on Earth.

Then, after figuring out the situation at Base No. 2, he would stab him in the back and entice Sun Cheng's Decepticon Engineers to defect.

"Did I overestimate you... or did you underestimate me..."

The smile on his face grew increasingly brilliant; Sun Cheng looked straight at Onslaught, his expression showing not a hint of cowardice.

Onslaught frowned slightly; he did not like Sun Cheng's current attitude at all.

His gaze swept over the group of Decepticons behind him, "Are they the source of your confidence to clamor at me?"

Although the electromagnetic spectrum Sun Cheng was currently emitting was powerful and unfamiliar, faintly giving Onslaught a feeling that he was even more dangerous than Starscream,

he did not believe that the other party could transform from an inconspicuous little soldier into a powerful Leader in just a few short years.

Onslaught, who dreamed of becoming a Leader even in his sleep, knew all too well how difficult that was.

The resources required just to transform into a Leader were not something a normal Decepticon could save up in two or three years.

Moreover, having resources was not enough; advancing from an Elite Warrior to a Leader was a transformation of one's life level.

Even the strong, like Sentinel Prime and Megatron, were the result of countless years of accumulation; the former had long held a holy object like the 【AllSpark】.

And the latter, Megatron, went from a slave to a gladiator death-match fighter to the military commander of Cybertron, experiencing countless miraculous encounters along the way.

After them, there were not many Leaders born on Cybertron.

Among them, the most famous, Shockwave and Optimus Prime, both possessed their current strength only after receiving countless resource allocations from the Decepticon Legion and Autobot factions, respectively, and surviving countless life-and-death battles.

"Only an AllSpark Fragment... only a fragment, it is absolutely impossible to achieve this..."

A cardinal sin called jealousy, which even affected the usually wise and rational Onslaught, caused him to look at Sun Cheng with undisguised killing intent.

And Sun Cheng saw this scene clearly.

Thus, he laughed.

"Haha... haha... hahahaha..."

Subconsciously wiping the corner of his eye, Sun Cheng realized the next moment that he did not possess a human body in the 【Transformers Universe】.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to laugh until he shed tears.

This abrupt, loud laughter left all the Decepticons present somewhat confused.

Onslaught stared at Sun Cheng with an ugly expression, revealing a set of ferocious fangs, "Are you laughing at me?"

"No, no, no..."

Sun Cheng restrained his smile and shook his head, denying his guess.

"I was just laughing at myself... ridiculous..."

Yes, he was not lying.

At this moment, Sun Cheng was indeed laughing at himself, laughing at how he always forgot not to use human thought patterns to guess and speculate about Decepticons.

Thinking back to the past few days, since Thunder reported the satellite footage of Onslaught's movements to him, all his wariness and precautions, and even the significant amount of computing power he had wasted privately formulating and then overturning one plan after another against him,

Sun Cheng felt that he was truly ridiculous.

"After all, they are Decepticons..."

As he laughed, the smile on his face completely disappeared, replaced by an identical, no longer concealed killing intent.

"No one can take my things from my hands!"

Sun Cheng's voice was very calm, "If you want them, step over my corpse to take them!"

After speaking, he reached out and grabbed at his lower back; a Plasma Hand Cannon instantly appeared in the palm of his right hand.

Although the muzzle of the hand cannon was pointed at the ground, all the Decepticons present knew that if Sun Cheng needed to, it would be aimed at his enemy in the next second.

Onslaught's expression stalled; he had indeed guessed wrong from the very beginning.

He never expected that this little guy, who two years ago still needed to fawn over him to avoid the schemes of Frenzy and Soundwave, now had the courage to raise a gun at him.

"How dare he... how dare he... how dare he... damn it..."

Intense humiliation and annoyance instantly turned into fury, causing Onslaught to roar and issue an order with a ferocious expression: "Combaticons, attack!"

The Sonic Stun Gun appeared rapidly at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye, aimed at Sun Cheng, and simultaneously fired a blue light without hesitation.

Sun Cheng had long been guarding against him; this guy's stun gun was a special electromagnetic weapon capable of firing a strong electromagnetic pulse. Once a Cybertronian was hit, their internal electronic components would be severely scorched, causing them to lose combat effectiveness or even consciousness.

Because the firing speed was very fast, it earned the name Sonic Stun Gun.

Although Sun Cheng's chassis had undergone electromagnetic shielding treatment, he had no intention of personally testing the power of the attacking weapon.

After easily dodging the incoming attack, Sun Cheng raised his Plasma Hand Cannon to counterattack, while a smile returned to his face.

Only, compared to just a moment ago, it now held a few more traces of arrogance and excitement.

Not until today had Sun Cheng thoroughly grown accustomed to and come to enjoy his identity in this world.

"Can force solve everything... Megatron, I am starting to become interested in your position!"
