Chapter 890: The First Battle Against Onslaught (Part 1)

"Not good!"

Onslaught is such a cautious person; otherwise, he could not have survived until now.

At the beginning of the Decepticon Legion's formation, it was not as if there were no Advanced Commanders more powerful than him.

However, the bodies of the vast majority of them have now rotted into slag.

Although he is proud to the point of arrogance and possesses serious flaws in his personality.

Onslaught is still more cautious than other Decepticons; it is precisely because of this caution that he did not fall in the past civil war along with the other members of the Combaticons.

Therefore, the sudden change in attitude from Sun Cheng and his subordinates immediately made Onslaught sense something unusual.

His cautious personality, combined with his rich combat experience, made him immediately realize the problem.

Although Onslaught was not clear about Sun Cheng's trump cards, after the recent battle, he had more or less figured out the strength now possessed by this Decepticon who once needed to seek shelter under his command.

Although there is still a certain gap between the opponent's strength and his own, this gap is not considered large.

Moreover, Sun Cheng's body truly made Onslaught feel a bit envious.

Although he is not a first-rate Scientist, almost every Decepticon titan, for the sake of an opportunity to advance further, will devote some energy to dabbling in science.

Onslaught is no exception; although he cannot be mentioned in the same breath as Starscream or Shockwave, he still has some knowledge regarding research related to bodies.

Back then, he even designed a body for Sun Cheng that was sufficient for him to promote to an Advanced Warrior.

During the exchange of blows, although he had been suppressing Sun Cheng the entire time, the resilience and combat power displayed by the latter still gave Onslaught a shock and provided him with a rough understanding of his New Body.

"... The alloy used in his New Body is even superior to the alloy on my body... His Spark shouldn't be much worse than mine either... Damn it, how long has it even been..."

Yes, how long has it been.

Onslaught calculated carefully; according to the time on Earth, it has only been a little over two years.

Yet in such a short period of just over two years, a lowly Decepticon who was once so weak that he didn't even bother to look at him, and whom he was too lazy to even scheme against, has actually leaped to become an existence on the same level as himself.

"Damn it... damn it..."

This is absolutely the most direct and ruthless mockery for Onslaught, who is arrogant to the point of conceit.

Jealousy caused his face to gradually twist, becoming increasingly hideous and unsightly.

But although his heart was full of jealousy and resentment, Onslaught's movements were not affected in the slightest.

After noticing the abnormal changes in Sun Cheng and his group, he felt that in this sudden conflict, it would be difficult for him and the Combaticons to completely annihilate the other side.

If they really fought to the death, even if he managed to eliminate Sun Cheng and his group, the price would be something he absolutely would not want to see.

With the intention to retreat in his heart, he no longer held back his strength; after a fierce, full-power slash that repelled Sun Cheng, Onslaught quickly ran toward Brawl and the others.

At the same time, his cold voice rang out.

"Combaticons, prepare!"

The other four members of the Combaticons were also covered in wounds at this moment under the siege of Sun Cheng's overwhelmingly superior forces.

The ones with the most severe injuries were Brawl and Vortex.

Brawl had been suppressed by Thunder for a long time; having only recently been re-Awakened, although his strength had now reached the level of an Elite Warrior.

But the resources he could obtain from Onslaught and Starscream were clearly far from comparable to those of Thunder.

After all, Thunder is one of the Advanced Commanders that Sun Cheng focuses on cultivating; over the past period, the resources tilted toward him at Base No. 2 were not much different from those given to the Pioneers.

Thanks to this, Thunder did not care about consuming energy at all during training.

Although his body had also only just been promoted to an Elite Warrior a little over half a year ago, the Decepticon Engineers under Sun Cheng had already, after receiving Sun Cheng's nod, carried out two targeted upgrades to his body according to the deficiencies Thunder discovered during training.

The current Thunder is even stronger than the Pioneers in terms of combat power alone; it is no exaggeration to say he is the strongest Warrior under Sun Cheng.

Brawl, who was targeted by him, was pushed into a disadvantageous position after a brief exchange.

By now, Thunder had already left too many wounds on his body.

The most glaring of these was a basketball-sized radioactive fracture zone left on the chest armor protecting the Spark within Brawl's chest cavity.

This hot-tempered big guy had now been suppressed by Thunder until he had no temper left.

Therefore, upon hearing Onslaught's signal, his eyes immediately lit up.

He immediately performed a clumsy roll, opened up the distance between himself and Thunder, and ran toward Onslaught.

The other members of the Combaticons were much the same; Vortex had previously created a whirlwind, briefly controlling the twenty-plus Advanced Warriors who were besieging them.

With Blast Off coordinating with him, they quickly killed and severely wounded four of Sun Cheng's Advanced Decepticon Warriors, but he could no longer hold on.

Although the artificial whirlwind had a good effect, the side effects seemed to be quite large as well.

At the very least, after the artificial whirlwind ended, Vortex, who fell from mid-air, seemed to have temporarily lost his combat ability.

Although Blast Off tried his best to protect him, twenty-plus Advanced Warriors attacked with hatred; Energy Bullets fired from Plasma Cannons continuously struck Vortex, who was being protected by him, leaving dozens of wounds on Vortex's body in a very short time, with electric sparks and metal fragments splashing everywhere.

However, he was an Elite Warrior after all; although Vortex was severely wounded, his recovery was much faster than that of a Normal Decepticon.

Slowly freeing himself from the side effects of the artificial whirlwind, Vortex was also startled by his own miserable appearance at this time.

He almost immediately abandoned Blast Off, who had been protecting him for a long time, and ran toward Onslaught in an extremely wretched posture, as if fleeing for his life.

"Asshole!"

Blast Off cursed; Vortex had run away too decisively, and as a result, the Advanced Warriors besieging them did not react in time, which instead allowed him to escape.

Consequently, once they came to their senses, all their firepower was concentrated on Blast Off.

Braving several hits from Plasma Cannon shells, with a large portion of his back armor shattered, and at the cost of nearly having one of his legs blown off, he finally escaped the encirclement.

Watching Blast Off and the others quickly converging toward Onslaught, a sense of unease rose in Sun Cheng's heart for no reason.

"Hold them back!"

He shouted orders in the communication channel while summoning his Plasma Cannon to fire wildly.

Although he was not clear what Onslaught and the others were up to, the opponent's performance undoubtedly confirmed that Onslaught and his group might still have some trump card they had not yet revealed.

This was not good news!

The Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb launched from outer space was already only tens of thousands of meters from the ground.

However, the ambush did indeed win them back a round; following the price of having an arm severed, Swindle rejoined the others in a sorry state.

A burst of azure electric arcs suddenly appeared among the five members of the Combaticons.

The moment he saw those electric arcs, Sun Cheng's face immediately turned ugly to the extreme.

"Damn it!"
