Chapter 960: Impatient

As the fleet of Golden Eagle Armed Transport Ships set off, Hailishi and the others located in the Mediterranean Sea also received orders to return simultaneously.

Several Yasen-class attack nuclear submarines were following in the nearby seabed, and there was also a group of Advanced Warriors on board the ships.

Therefore, Sun Cheng was quite at ease regarding them!

And almost at the same time they set off, in the middle of Africa, in a certain wilderness.

More than a dozen Quintessa soldiers stood guard around a soldier who looked quite ordinary; after that soldier emitted a strange tone in a cold electronic voice, the surrounding soldiers nodded in unison and dispersed to stand guard in all directions.

As for the soldier himself, he tapped his chest, and after the armor on his front chest opened wide, he took out a rather aesthetically pleasing metal polyhedron from inside and held it in his hand.

Two fingers on his right hand suddenly became very long, and he traced a few times along a strange pattern on two of the faces of that metal polyhedron.

Soon, beams of light began to shoot out from the metal polyhedron.

Then it floated into mid-air out of thin air, and at the same time, six metal supports ejected from the bottom of the metal polyhedron.

After hovering for a short while, the metal polyhedron finally fell to the ground, and the six metal supports were firmly inserted into the soil below, fixing it in place.

"Done!"

That Quintessa soldier said in the Quintessa language, "The fourth Planet Positioning Device has been installed. Every one Quintessa natural month, it will automatically transmit a set of coordinate data into the universe! We are preparing to evacuate; let's lead those lowly Cybertronians to other places as much as possible!"

"Yes!"

Following the departure of the Quintessa soldiers, no one knew that in a certain part of the African continent, some small things manufactured by the Quintessa Civilization were obscurely exposing Earth's location to the universe.

A few small things less than the size of a palm were truly inconspicuous to the Autobots who had not yet fully mastered Africa.

By the time they noticed and discovered them, it would likely be too late for everything.

As for Sun Cheng's side, he clearly did not have more energy to pay attention to matters on the African continent in the short term.

The reason was none other than the fact that he had been dazzled by his own harvest.

After flying into South American territory a few hours later, the transport fleet activated its Optical Stealth Device after taking off and flying out of the African continent.

What they were guarding against was not the Autobots and Decepticons, but the people of Earth.

Although the Autobots and Decepticons who had already arrived on Earth had the strength to completely destroy the entire Base No. 2, they would also pay an unacceptable price for doing so.

However, Sun Cheng and Optimus Prime had now initially established a tacit understanding, so the Autobot side could be ignored for the time being.

Also because of this tacit understanding, even if the Decepticon Legion hated him to the bone, they could not concentrate all their forces and risk the cost of heavy losses to destroy the Base No. 2 entrenched in South America before the main force led by Shockwave arrived.

What really worried Sun Cheng was actually the nuclear weapons held in human hands.

To put it bluntly, what he worried about most was that the United States would suddenly choose to take a desperate risk one day.

For things like nuclear bombs, if it were just a volley of a few or a dozen, it would be very simple to intercept them.

But if another order of magnitude were added, reaching a volley of hundreds.

Even Base No. 2 could not guarantee that it could intercept them all, which would inevitably lead to strikes on their own mines, factories, or Sub-bases within South America.

If the quantity increased by another order of magnitude, reaching a scale of thousands, the deduced outcome already made even Sun Cheng shudder.

Although he did not believe that the Americans would dare to defy universal condemnation.

But it could not be helped that the side effect of this country's domestic religious influence expanding and becoming politicized in recent years was the rise of anti-intellectualism.

This wave of anti-intellectualism had hovered over the United States for decades, and its influence had long since begun to spread to the so-called elite class.

God knows if a madman might suddenly emerge among them and propose a nuclear strike on the South American region.

And another group of madmen would fanatically raise their hands in agreement.

Moreover, the turmoil that just happened on the African continent had a cost that was more than just the destruction of the thousand-year-old ancient capital Cairo; the African countries and cities affected were not just one or two.

The trouble brought by Sentinel Prime would ferment in a very short time.

It would make most countries on Earth begin to face up to the various problems brought about by the arrival of these Cybertronians.

He believed that as long as there was a country inciting it behind the scenes, the hostility toward them would soon become a tacit understanding and mainstream among the various countries on Earth.

Therefore, Sun Cheng felt that no amount of caution could be too much.

With the technology mastered by Base No. 2, as long as they did not want to be exposed, it would be very difficult for the United States, at the very least, to find the main Base No. 2 hidden somewhere in South America.

The Golden Eagle Armed Transport Ship, carrying Sun Cheng and the others, a batch of Advanced Decepticon Replicated Warriors, and some relatively intact Quintessa soldier corpses, landed steadily at an Airport in South America.

The Decepticons who had already received orders and were waiting there immediately boarded the cargo hold of the spaceship after the cabin opened and Sun Cheng and the others had all disembarked, moved the corpses down one by one, and then sent them to various Laboratories for research and repair through trucks that were being transported.

"I am going to organize Sentinel Prime's memory. Do not come to disturb me these few days unless there is a major matter!"

"Yes!"

After getting off the spaceship at the Airport, Sun Cheng gave a brief instruction to Leiting, then leaped into the sky and flew toward the Central Main Control Base over a hundred kilometers away.

Just as he had explained, this time, the memory data of Sentinel Prime alone was a huge treasure, enough for him to develop for a very long time.

Sun Cheng flew back to his Central Main Control Base impatiently and entered his private Laboratory.

His Laboratory had expanded to nearly three times its original scale since it was first established, and it also had many more professional pieces of equipment.

Too busy to care about those things, as soon as he entered the Laboratory, Sun Cheng sat down in a corner of the Laboratory on a metal throne that matched his body, closed his eyes, and began to prepare to digest those complex memories of Sentinel Prime.

The memory data of this former Prime was simply too much.

So much so that even Sun Cheng would need to spend a long time to completely organize it.

However, he already had a prioritized plan in his heart; he prepared to first find and organize the conspiracy between Sentinel Prime and Megatron, as well as his conspiracy with the Quintessa Civilization.

Besides that, Sun Cheng also had to find Sentinel Prime's detailed memory data regarding the Space Bridge.

If he did not figure out the conspiracy between this Prime, Megatron, and the Quintessa Civilization, he would truly be unable to rest easy.

After all, neither the Decepticon Legion nor the Quintessa Civilization was something the current Sun Cheng could resist.

Once the other party really wanted to move their entire nest, even if he were only affected, it would be enough to hurt his vitality.

As for why he was anxious about Space Bridge technology, the answer was also very simple.

Sun Cheng could not wait to use this black technology to establish a stable ultra-long-range channel between Earth and Mars.
