Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 720 Megatron: Wrong way to open (ask for monthly ticket)

"You are definitely not human."

"At least not those humans on this Earth who haven't left the cradle of their home planet."

Optimus Prime quickly assessed the human warriors before him, who had set off his danger alarm, and reached a conclusion with certainty.

Although they have only just arrived on this blue planet, their understanding of human civilization on Earth has even surpassed that of most humans.

Relying on the increasingly developed Internet, Optimus Prime quickly browsed the development history of this young civilization.

This is a very normal and immature civilization. Humans have not even figured out the key technology of controlled nuclear fusion.

For an interstellar civilization, controlled nuclear fusion is almost a stepping stone. Only this kind of "infinite energy" in the true sense can support a civilization towards the starry sea.

Chemical energy rockets and spacecraft can only be used near planetary systems at best.

How could such a civilization create such powerful genetically modified warriors and those power armors that he found a little outrageous?

Based on spectral analysis and material testing, Optimus Prime can be sure that even the plasma weapon on his body can only scratch the paint on the opponent's power armor.

The opponent's weapons can easily tear apart the Autobot's metal body.

This alone means that if the two sides really fight, they will face complete crushing in terms of materials science.

Although the metal bodies of Cybertronians can rely on transformation gears to freely transform from vehicle form to human form, some Transformers can even complete three or even four transformations.

But their physical strength is not outrageous.

Even the heavy thermal weapons of humans on Earth, such as howitzers and cannons, can threaten the lives of Transformers, and missiles with even greater destructive power can easily kill Transformers.

"Excellent observation, Optimus Prime." Luo Xi nodded, agreeing with the other party's guess.

"We come from another universe, just for you."

Roche did not lie. Although he initially just wanted to explore a new universe, after realizing the situation in this universe, the Autobots led by Optimus Prime became the key target of attack.

After hearing Roxi's answer, Optimus Prime's confusion was finally partially resolved.

Then everything makes sense.

"At the height of Cybertron's prosperity, our scientific system had already delved into the microscopic origins of the universe, and we also had a certain understanding and knowledge of parallel universes."

"Since you are from another universe, what is it like outside?"

Optimus Prime didn't ask what Roxi's purpose was or why he said he came for him.

For a Cybertronian like him who had suffered for a long time in the civil war on his home planet, those exchanges of interests and conspiracies were too common.

He also wanted to know whether the world outside was peaceful and tranquil.

Luo Xi looked at Optimus Prime's expression and immediately understood what he was thinking.

When a person is disappointed or even desperate about his environment, he may even have a naive and beautiful fantasy about a new environment he has never seen before.

In the early days of the Earth, humans coined a name for it called "Utopia".

Optimus Prime obviously placed all the beautiful hopes he had been pursuing on other universes.

"What do you want to hear?" Luo Xi asked back.

"Just tell the truth." Optimus Prime said.

Luo Xi was silent for three seconds, thinking about what words to use to describe the situation outside.

Seeing him thinking so hard, Optimus Prime sighed in his heart. Sure enough, what he hoped for was just a bubble in the end.

"The situation outside is even darker, more chaotic, and more hopeless than here."

"But there is hope. Countless people are working hard, trying to find various ways to break the deadlock."

"So you are one of those 'countless people'?" The speaker was Optimus Prime's adjutant, Sir.

Among the Cybertronians present, he was the only one who still maintained his original unruly nature.

Jazz's body was leaning against an abandoned vehicle on the side of the road, and his heavy body caused the rusty metal frame to deform and collapse.

He had his hands folded across his chest and one leg draped over the hood of the car, completely oblivious to the supposedly serious atmosphere.

"Yes, I am one of them." Luo Xi stared at the Jazz for a few seconds. He felt that this guy was quite to his liking.

"The situation is already bad enough. If it gets any worse, it won't make any difference." Jazz looked at Optimus Prime. "Don't think too much. Just do what we have to do."

"The first thing we should take out is Megatron and his Decepticon bastards."

Luo Xi suddenly discovered that this unruly knight seemed to be the calmest and most sober among these Autobots.

He is even more decisive and straightforward than Optimus Prime.

Even the leader Optimus Prime developed a nihilistic and pessimistic tendency after hearing the information revealed by Roche, and he was easily swayed by his emotions.

But his adjutant, Sir, would not think so much. You can say he is short-sighted or realistic and free-spirited, he is just that kind of Autobot.

Luo Xi did not tell the truth about the parallel universe that he knew. It was just the first time they met, so there was no need to be open and honest.

Luo Xi also didn't intend to have too deep a connection with this universe.

The existence of Unicron has made this parallel universe full of dangers, as dangerous as a giant volcano that may erupt at any time.

"Alright, alright, let's not waste any more time. Since Mr. Roche mentioned that the Allspark Cube and Megatron are both at the Hoover Dam, why don't we go and see for ourselves whether it's true or not?"

"Once Bumblebee and Sam get the glasses, they'll come and reunite with us."

Listening to his lieutenant giving the order, Optimus Prime also agreed and adjusted his mood again.

"Autobots, let's go."

Optimus Prime turned into his original heavy truck appearance, opened the door, and motioned for Roxie to get in.

Luo Xi was not polite at all and climbed directly into the carriage.

Sharokin, Hill and other Space Marines disappeared into the darkness again.

They have so many ways to move quickly that they don't need to take these slow cars to their destination.

The reason why Roche allowed these Astartes to show up was to intimidate these Cybertronians.

Although in terms of military strength, Roche has far surpassed these Space Marines.

But when it comes to superficial intimidation, he looks like just an ordinary mortal.

Los Angeles is about 500 kilometers away from the Hoover Dam. This somewhat strange convoy shuttled across the highway, speeding at a speed far beyond the theoretical limit.

These Cybertronians used holographic projection technology to simulate the illusion of human driving in their own seats to avoid arousing suspicion from other vehicles on the road.

Luo Xi rolled down the car window, and the cool summer night breeze poured into the car from the window, blowing his hair.

"You came here for the Allspark, right?"

Optimus Prime's voice came from all directions. He separated the other Autobots and spoke to Roshi alone.

"The Allspark contains Cybertron's highest technology. It is not only a divine artifact that can bring mechanical creations to life, but also a technological crystallization that records the development of our civilization."

"If what you say is true, that you come from another universe, then your technology has surpassed Cybertron's at its peak. This is probably the only thing you can look up to."

Roxie didn't deny it either. If Optimus Prime couldn't even guess this, then he really wasn't worthy of being the leader of the Autobots.

"There is no conflict between us. Your goal is to prevent the Allspark from falling into Megatron's hands. If necessary, you are even prepared to sacrifice yourself."

Optimus Prime realized that this human knew him better than he knew.

The idea of self-sacrifice was not even a thought in his mind, and even his lieutenant, Sir, did not realize that Optimus Prime had made plans.

"I will take the Allspark away and leave this universe, so you don't have to worry about it falling into the hands of the Decepticons."

"You don't need to sacrifice your own life to destroy the Allspark, so you get the best of both worlds."

"You're not telling the truth." Optimus Prime's voice sounded, "At least not completely."

"With your strength, the defenses set up by those humans are completely useless. You can even swagger into the seventh district and take away the Spark Source Cube."

"Whether they are humans, Autobots, or Decepticons, they are nothing more than ants that you can easily destroy."

"Tell me what you are worried about, otherwise I will not allow the Allspark to fall into the hands of someone who cannot distinguish between good and evil."

"You're talking about cooperation, so the premise of cooperation should be honesty between both parties, not deception or concealment."

"It's not just the Decepticons who can harm the universe. A human with malicious intentions can also use the Allspark to do evil."

Luo Xi frowned slightly. Optimus Prime's stubbornness and difficulty were even greater than he had imagined.

However, his displeasure only lasted for a moment. After all, since he had told Optimus Prime this information, he had nothing to lose.

"I can't take the Allspark away directly, but you Transformers can."

"The Allspark has been imprinted by an indescribable existence, drawing you Cybertronians from all corners of the universe to this azure planet."

"And that being, perhaps you have heard of its name—Unicron!"

In an instant, Optimus Prime braked to a sudden stop on the spot, and the friction between the rubber tires and the concrete road produced a large amount of foul-smelling smoke and shrill screams.

"Optimus Prime?"

"what happens?"

The other Autobots drifted and turned swiftly, looking at Optimus Prime in confusion as he suddenly stopped.

"Nothing, just keep going."

Optimus Prime continued to speed up, but he could no longer remain calm after hearing that name.

His tone began to quicken.

"Unicron? Isn't that a legend whose truth is unknown? Even in the ancient legends of our Cybertron, Unicron is an illusory existence."

The Autobot leader suddenly felt that this ordinary Earth seemed to have suddenly turned into a mysterious place that even he could not understand.

His mind was working frantically, thinking about what they should do if Unicron really existed.

But unfortunately, Optimus Prime thought for a long time but still didn't know what to do.

This is as ridiculous as a human being suddenly knowing that Satan, the mortal enemy of his belief in God, is right next to him and trying to find ways to be his enemy.

"In our ancient legends, Yuanshi Tianzun and the Universe Emperor went to war with each other, but the latter was defeated and disappeared without a trace."

"If it really exists, it must be dormant."

"And all this is related to the Earth. So Unicron is hiding inside the Earth?"

Optimus Prime actually deduced part of the truth based on the fragmentary information given by Roxi, and Roxi couldn't help but applaud him.

"Yes, it is precisely because Unicron is sleeping inside the Earth that I cannot take the Allspark directly."

"Before it fell asleep, it had a complete plan—to use the Allspark to lure you Cybertronians, and then, ideally, let you fight each other on Earth."

Optimus Prime felt a little confused. He received the call from Bumblebee and rushed to Earth from light years away. How did he become the lured prey?
"Our goals are the same: neither you nor I want Unicron to awaken, and neither of us wants the Allspark to fall into the hands of the Decepticons. So, we have the conditions for cooperation."

"Help me get the Allspark, and then I'll take it away. I'll tell you the rest of the information."

"If the other Decepticons want to become your enemy, I will take action."

Optimus Prime was silent, and he did not respond to Roxi's invitation for cooperation for a long time.

Luo Xi also gave him enough time to think, and he believed that Optimus Prime would make the right choice.

An existence of Unicron's level cannot be dealt with by a few Autobots on the spur of the moment.

If it were really that simple, then Yuanshi Tianzun, who won the victory at the time, would not have given up.

Even if Optimus Prime is the descendant of Prime, the holder of the leadership module cannot do it.

When the Emperor of the Universe wakes up, this parallel universe will be completely destroyed and everything will be devoured by it.

If Optimus Prime had been sensible, Roxy might have been able to run away with these Autobots and escape to another parallel universe.

"I agree to your terms, Roxie," Optimus Prime spoke again.

"I choose to believe you."

"Whether it's Megatron or Unicron, they are my enemies, and the enemies of countless innocent lives.

I will never allow them to wantonly slaughter and exterminate other races."

"Even if it means paying the price of my life, I will never hesitate."

In his own mind, Optimus Prime has already classified Unicron as an enemy.

He knew that relying on his own strength and that of the Autobots was not enough to defeat these powerful enemies, so Optimus Prime planned to borrow external help.

Perhaps only Luo Xi has the ability to break this dilemma.

Speechless all the way.

About two hours later, Optimus Prime and the Autobots arrived at the Black Gorge where the Hoover Dam was located.

It is still dim and has not yet broken dawn, which is the most sleepy time of the day for humans.

The Hoover Dam is built on the Colorado River. It is a giant concrete gravity arch dam with a height of 221 meters.

It was built in 1936 AD and consumed a lot of manpower and material resources to complete. It can be said to be a miracle in the history of human engineering at that time.

Because of its existence, the Colorado River, the deepest and most turbulent river in North America, has become docile and tame.

It simultaneously takes into account flood control, power generation, shipping, water storage and other functions, but its most mysterious and important function is only known by very few people.

At the bottom of the Hoover Dam lies the most important secret of the entire United States.

The Allspark and Megatron, codenamed NBE-1, were frozen here.

The roar of the Bumblebee engine came from the other direction, and Sam and Michaela jumped out of the car, holding the glasses that recorded the location of the spark source in their hands.

Optimus Prime retrieved the code information left on the glasses and confirmed that the source of the fire was here.

Given the original size of the Spark Source Cube, it would be nearly impossible for humans to transport it over long distances while maintaining secrecy. Therefore, the best solution was to build a shelter near the crash site to block it from transmitting signals.

Since its completion in 1936, the Hoover Dam has attracted many tourists.
However, due to the recent unusual incidents in the Mojave Desert, District 7 has increased its vigilance, blocked the dam, and prohibited tourists from entering or leaving.

Luo Xi and the Autobots hid in the surrounding barren hills, looking down at the huge dam.

"Down below is the secret base of District 7, where a large number of armed personnel and troops are stationed."

"Once they sensed an attack, they would immediately request assistance from nearby military bases and simultaneously seal all exits from the Hoover Dam to prevent the enemy from infiltrating or escaping."

"Because of the Hoover Dam, any weapons of mass destruction cannot be used.

Otherwise, the overall structure of the dam will be destroyed, and both sides will suffer losses.

The Colorado River, now freed, will unleash its full fury and devour all invaders, including the Seventh District."

Luo Xi talked about how he had scanned the entire internal structure of the dam and displayed it in the form of a holographic projection.

"This is going to be a tough fight," said Ironhide, the weapons expert.

What they have to face is the well-trained army of District 7. They all know the existence of Transformers. Megatron's frozen body is underneath and has been studied by them for decades.

It can be said that they are proficient in the body structure of Transformers, and the heavy weapons they use are also specially designed and built for Transformers.

However, they had too few men and were restricted in their use of heavy firepower.

"Leave the infiltration operations to us." Luo Xi clapped his hands and said.

Behind him, the Primaris Space Marines reappeared like ghosts.

Even though they were prepared, Optimus Prime and his companions still couldn't understand how these human warriors appeared.

In fact, a stealth combat barge is currently in the Earth's low-Earth orbit.

These warriors just need to be teleported back first and then teleported to another destination.

Hill and Sharokin appeared from behind Luo Xi. They will take action personally to take over the entire seventh district while preventing them from sending out the early warning signal.

The Astartes' power armor emitted bursts of energy arcs, and then their entire bodies became transparent.

Their power backpacks activated the anti-gravity engines, making their footsteps extremely light and leaving no trace at all.

Sharokin led an infiltration team and disappeared into the dim night.

The space jumping ability from the Red Devil made the tightly closed gate of the base become a decoration.

This mixed squad consists of Space Marines who have used the gene seeds of three legions: the Night Lords, the Raven Guard, and the Alpha Legion.

Sharokin casually threw out a metal ball the size of a grenade, and then it began to crumble and disintegrate, turning into countless extremely tiny nanorobots.

These nanorobots penetrated directly into the interior of the Hoover Dam like a puff of smoke.

Even hard concrete is like nothing in front of these nanorobots.

Gestalt thinking guided these microrobots into electrical cables and data lines, and then deep into the connected computers.

In just ten seconds, all external communications of the entire District 7 were effectively cut off.

At the same time, when the connection is blocked, the nanorobots simulate the illusion that the signal is still connected, confusing the agents on duty.

These elites of District 7 did not anticipate that an unknown force possessing epoch-making technology had begun to lay its hands on them.

At this moment, in the seventh district.

Agent Simmons has just concluded an investigative mission in the Mojave Desert.

As a professional in District 7, Simmons is the person who knows Transformers best.

He knew very well how powerful those aliens were, and the NBE-1 that had been frozen under the Hoover Dam for decades was the best proof of that.

Simmons couldn't imagine how horrific the scene would be once the frozen giant woke up.

Even the most sophisticated human army would be slaughtered when faced with such a crushing enemy.

"But fortunately, no aliens similar to NBE-1 were found in the Mojave Desert anomaly incident."

“Humans are still too fragile in front of these metal bastards.

Even if we reverse engineer some advanced technology from the other side, it still doesn't change this gap."

Simmons muttered to himself that he had always supported the direct destruction of the frozen alien robot, but his superiors rejected his proposal.

How could the remains of an alien containing countless high technologies be wasted like this?

The United States' current status as the world's hegemon is inextricably linked to the NBE-1.

If we lose it, the country's entire technological progress will fall into a state of almost stagnation in a short period of time.

After all, only they themselves know that most of the country's scientific and technological progress has been achieved by "copying homework".

Simmons returned to his dormitory, intending to wash his face and rest.

As agents of District 7, they live and work in the lower levels of the Hoover Dam.

If it weren't for an unexpected mission, they might not even go out most of the time.

They keep the country's secrets and shine in places where no one can see.

After a simple wash, his sleepiness disappeared.

After thinking for a while, Simmons put on his black suit again. He still planned to patrol the base, which was his daily habit.

"Henry?"

Simmons called his colleagues and planned to go together, but he called out several times but got no response from Henry.

He frowned slightly, thinking to himself, could it be that this kid fell asleep as soon as he came back?
Something is wrong!
Simmons suddenly noticed something unusual. He felt that the entire District 7 was eerily quiet.

There was no sound of other colleagues talking, no noise from the giant gantry cranes running, only the rumbling sound of water flowing in the dam outside.

He silently placed his hand on the pistol at his waist, which gave him a slight sense of security.

Simmons carefully groped his way to a red alarm in the corner, quickly opened the transparent protective cover, and then slammed it shut.

District 7 has strict security measures and early warning systems.

As long as someone presses these alarms, the entire base will enter a state of martial law, blocking all entry and exit.

But after Simmons pressed the button, nothing changed.

No sirens, no emergency communications, no response at all.

He didn't believe it and clapped a few more times, but it was still the same.

Simmons' face turned pale in an instant, and he realized that the alarm system might have been hacked.

And the people who can do this are most likely aliens.

He was just about to shout loudly to see if there were any survivors.

suddenly.

A huge shadow was cast from behind him, and a cold feeling crept up Simmons's back, which had just been washed, and his hair stood up.

But before he could react, the highly effective hypnotic gas had already entered his blood circulation system.

Simmons closed his eyes, fell to the ground and fell into a coma.

A Raven Guard veteran stood beside Simmons, holding a pulse sound wave generator that could stimulate the human brain and instantly make them faint.

But since the hypnotic gas has already taken effect, there is no need to create any more complications.

In just two minutes, the entire seventh district was under control.

Sharokin opened the tightly closed steel gate, and then Optimus Prime led the Autobots in one after another.

Accompanied by a rhythmic transformation sound, the Autobots transformed into human form.

"Yes, he is here."

"I can even smell the stench of him, the smell of crazy ambition."

Ironhide said in a deep voice, his hands already gripping the plasma cannon, ready to fight the enemy at any moment.

The space under the Hoover Dam is about 25 meters high. The outdated lighting system makes it look a bit dim, and the flickering lumen lights occasionally light up abnormal arcs.

There seemed to be a light damp mist floating in the air. Because it was under the dam, the humidity here was obviously far above the standard, making people in the car feel a little uncomfortable.

They prefer drier and hotter environments.

Walking forward along the complex corridor, a steel giant frozen in liquid nitrogen finally appeared before our eyes.

"Megatron!"

"stop!"

Optimus Prime stretched out his hand to stop Ironhide and Jazz who were about to open fire. The hatred accumulated over the long years almost made the two Autobots lose control.

The infamous Megatron was now suspended on a gantry by several high-strength steel cables.

Four metal mechanical arms descended from the sky, seemingly dismantling something from the Decepticon Lord's body.

Optimus Prime saw that a lot of the armor on his old rival had been removed, exposing the complex pipes and metal skeleton inside.

For a Cybertronian, the scene before him was as cruel as a human seeing his own kind being skinned alive.

The Decepticon leader's eyes were dull, as if he had fallen into some kind of dormant state.

A large amount of liquid nitrogen poured down from the top 24 hours a day, forming a thick layer of ice on Megatron's body surface.

Only then did Luo Xi realize that Megatron was much taller than Optimus Prime, about 11 meters.

Not far from Megatron, the huge Spark Cube was tilted and embedded in the ground.

Its top has touched the sky of the base, and countless Cybertron runes on its surface are flickering.

The rough yellow metal frame of humans attached to the Fire Source Cube couldn't help but give people a strong sense of disharmony.

Optimus Prime was extremely excited and thrilled. The two things he had been looking for for so long were now in front of him, waiting for him to deal with them.

The Autobot leader stepped forward and gently touched a corner of the Allspark Cube with the fingertips of his right hand.

His consciousness resonated with the existence within the Spark Source.

The next moment, this Cybertron artifact, which had been dormant for who knows how long and which humans were completely helpless against, began to flash with violent electricity.

Smaller cubes began to emerge from its originally smooth surface, and then those cubes overlapped each other and continued to collapse.

In just a few seconds, the giant cube with a side length of 25 meters was transformed into a miniature Rubik's Cube that can be held up in the palm of your hand.

Optimus Prime gently lifted it in his palm.

"It seems Cybertron has made considerable progress in mass-energy conversion," Roche said with emotion. "Matter, energy, and information—these three can be converted into each other under certain circumstances."

"But if you want to artificially control their conversion, the technology required is too high."

Mass does not disappear for no reason, it is just temporarily converted into energy and information.

"Remember our agreement." Optimus Prime held the Spark Cube and handed it to Roxi.

However, Luo Xi shook his head and temporarily rejected Optimus Prime.

"You guys should take it now. It's not the right time for our deal yet."

Roxi didn't know whether Unicron would notice immediately when he touched the Allspark, so it would be better to keep it with Optimus Prime for the time being.

"Now, let's deal with Megatron, the damned war tyrant."

Optimus Prime placed the fire source in the storage space that appeared on his waist.

Then he swung the heat sword that popped out from his right hand and cut off the arms and legs of the frozen Megatron cleanly.

The leader of the Decepticons was now cut into a human stick in an extremely shameful posture, and was only kept upright by the steel cables hanging from the sky.

"Close the liquid nitrogen outlet."

"Let him wake up."

Jazz and Ironhide immediately closed the outlet where humans dumped the liquid nitrogen. The cold air that fell from the sky gradually dissipated, and the underground space became brighter.

Without the cooling effect of liquid nitrogen, Megatron's body quickly became scorching hot.

His eyes lit up with scarlet beams again, and a strong murderous aura gushed out.

Even if he is in trouble, he is still the Decepticon leader who roams the universe.

Jazz and Ironhide felt a vague sense of fear. They knew better than anyone how arrogant and tyrannical this guy was before.

The number of comrades who died at the hands of the enemy was too great to count.

"I'm back!"

A rough voice blared from Megatron's speakers, and he was freed from decades of ice, his soul seared with rage and desire for revenge.

He desperately wanted to destroy something to vent his anger.

Those humans, damn humans, actually dared to experiment on him.

This is trampling on the dignity of the noble Megatron!
But when Megatron was about to move his hands and feet, he was shocked to find that he had no hands or feet.

His head was a little stiff as he glanced downwards, only to see that all that was left of him was a lonely torso.

And his nemesis, the damn Optimus Prime, was standing next to him with a sword in his hand, seemingly trying to figure out where to strike.

Megatron: ???

What is the wrong way to open this?

"Optimus Prime! What have you done to me!!"
