Lord of Cinder in American Comics

Gradually, the corpses of the Transformers piled up, eventually exceeding the outermost fence.

The electricity from the fence was channeled to the corpses of these Transformers, causing a frenzy of electrical transfer between the metal parts, which was eventually channeled into the lunar subsurface.

"The Fallen! It's time!"

A red Transformer with a long beard, wielding a double-headed sword, urges on a black Transformer leaning on a scepter.

The Fallen, one of the original 13 Transformers on Cybertron, the homeworld of Transformers, possessed the ability to manipulate gravity. It betrayed its creators and was later defeated and exiled.

The red Transformer is Sentinel Prime, the former Autobot leader of Cybertron and Optimus Prime's mentor. In order to restore their home planet Cybertron, he betrayed his own allegiance and cooperated with the Decepticons.

Now, it is cooperating with the Fallen because the Fallen holds the key to Cybertron's life, and only with it can Cybertron be brought back to life.

The Fallen ignored Sentinel Prime's urging and didn't even glance at him, saying to itself, "Don't forget, your naive disciple and Megatron both died on Earth. Their cries of agony before their deaths still echo in the Transformers' storage."

"Therefore, we must conquer Earth as soon as possible! Their development is too fast!"

The Fallen pointed his scepter at Sentinel Prime and said, "So who are these people going to their deaths now? I haven't seen any of your laughable followers or so-called companions!"

Sentinel Prime snorted, used his double-bladed sword to deflect the Fallen's scepter, and turned to look at the waves of Cybertronian Transformers below who were going to their deaths.

"I realized long ago that the AllSpark is no longer on Earth! The AllSpark is now deep within the galaxy!"

Sentinel Prime, upon hearing this, angrily turned around, pointed his weapon at the Fallen, and said, "Then what are you waiting for here! Tell me! Where is the AllSpark!"

The Fallen finally glanced at Sentinel Prime, his eyes filled with mockery.

"Go and bring it back from a warship called Lothric!"

"You! Hmph..."

Yutian Dijiang gripped his weapon so tightly it creaked, but eventually put away the double-headed sword.

Sentinel Prime said, "The AllSpark is Cybertron's energy source, and it's right there... Why don't you go and bring it back?"

Haha! Are you scared now? That unstoppable military force! No planet can halt their advance!

Therefore, we must seek other energy sources and slaves! Let them fill the life keys of Cybertron! Earth is located on the edge of the galaxy, and their communication is cut off. Our opportunity is right before us!

These humans with special abilities are the best source of energy!

The Fallen looked into the distance and raised his scepter.

"Now is the opportunity!"

The sand around the Fallen began to float up, along with the piles of Transformer corpses in the distance.

A massive metal object obscured a corner of the lunar city's protective shield and began to rise gradually along the shield, eventually filling most of it.

Having accomplished all this, the Fallen slammed his scepter down, causing the ground around the lunar city to tremble. A metallic worm burst forth from the earth.

The metal worm, named Burrower, was originally Shockwave's pet, but now, under the control of the Fallen, it has become a weapon to conquer the city.

The original Draco was 330 meters long, making it almost the largest of the regular Transformers. (Regular! Mighty Marshal is 1,500 meters long, and Unicron is 120,000 kilometers long.)

The electricity that had just been introduced underground had already provided the destructive beast with enough energy.

The drilling monster draped its body over the protective shield, and the constantly rotating drill bit sparked intensely against the shield.

The Transformer corpses covering the protective shield became food for the burrowing monster. Even if they were damaged by collisions with the shield, these corpses could quickly replenish its losses.

The burrowing monster, like a greedy snake, began to coil continuously on the protective shield. Its body also grew increasingly robust and enormous.

At this point, the people in the city also realized that something was wrong. The onlookers on the tops of various buildings had all disappeared.

At the highest point of the city, inside a luxurious building, sits a silent man and a red-haired woman constantly issuing commands on two thrones almost touching.

"Get everyone to the shelter, Karnak. Have you found the enemy's weakness?"

Known as Karnak, a bald man with an obviously intelligent appearance, said with a solemn expression, "That's just a machine; its behavior is clearly planned. There must be someone controlling it, but I can't be sure, I can't even be sure if it's human..."

The man on the throne raised his hand, and after a few brief gestures, the woman beside him began to explain what he meant.

"Carnecker, have Tetanus take you to the outside world and make sure you find out the weaknesses of the mechanical creatures."

At this point, the woman hesitated, glanced at the man, and under his piercing gaze, forced herself to say, "In case of any unforeseen circumstances, Gorgon, you will lead your people to the underworld. Maximus will be in charge of matters thereafter..."

After the woman finished speaking, everyone present gasped in surprise and tried to dissuade the man from making his decision.

But when the man gestured, they all immediately shut their mouths.

The woman continued, "Do as I say! Atilan needs to change; this is an opportunity!"

Everyone agreed and left the room.

Only the woman, holding the man's hand, stood in the palace at the highest point of the city, watching the burrowing monsters hovering above the protective shield.

Atilan is the name of the city, and the people who live here were once part of the Earth.

"Others" is a general term for them. As experimental subjects of the Kree tens of thousands of years ago, Homo sapiens at that time developed special abilities under the Kree's research.

For some reason, the Kree abandoned their experiments and creations, and the Inhumans began to develop on their own, gaining various superpowers through the Terrigen Crystals.

However, the ability brought about genetic damage and the distortion of the small society of the superhumans. Therefore, in order to mitigate the mutation, the superhumans began a long-term selective breeding program.

The growing size of the group and the development of human society outside led the alien community to decide to migrate. In the early 20th century, they used an anti-gravity engine to move their former residence near Iceland in the North Atlantic to the Himalayas.

But the Himalayas are not ordinary people's territory, and their inhabitants did not want trouble nearby. In the end, the aliens were forced to migrate to the barren land of the moon.

The Inhumans settled on the moon, and now their leader is the silent man on the throne.

The man's name was Blackcard Bertgone, but the Inhumans preferred to call him Black Bolt.

Black Bolt's power is the manipulation of energy, allowing him to create sonic waves through sound. This power is strong enough to allow him to destroy a city among the small group of people on Earth.

To protect his fellow tribesmen from harm, Black Bolt communicates using sign language, and the woman beside him is his wife, Medusa, the Queen of the Inhumans.

Medusa, true to her name, possesses the ability to manipulate her hair. She can control its growth rate and movement at will. She also serves as Black Bolt's mouthpiece, relaying his decisions.

Medusa held Black Bolt's hand as she and her husband awaited the outcome of the incident.

Or rather, they are waiting for the moment when the city falls, at which point Black Bolt will unleash his devastating power.

Gorgon, who had just left to relay Black Bolt's orders, pushed open the door, and a man dressed in all black walked in and immediately began to berate Black Bolt without any politeness.

"Are you an idiot?! That thing can burrow underground, and you're letting others hide in the underworld? If you're really stupid, then I'll take the throne!"

Black Bolt was using his self-created sign language, and Medusa, who was standing next to him, was about to interpret it when the man interrupted her as soon as she opened her mouth.

"I grew up with him, you don't need to interfere!"

Black Bolt pressed Medusa's hand down, shook his head at her, and began gesturing to the man.

'They need a leader, and you, my brother, should take on this responsibility and become the new king.'

The man, completely disregarding the setting, shouted, "But I am a human now, an ordinary human without any abilities! Not that damned superhuman of yours!"

'Maximus, this is an opportunity. You've seen those ordinary people underground. The upper and lower classes of Attilius shouldn't be at odds.'

Maximus, the man in black, is Black Bolt's younger brother. A former Inhuman genius, he possesses telepathic abilities, allowing him to manipulate others' minds and implant memories.

He was also a genius inventor, well-versed in physics, biology, and practical knowledge. He could create sophisticated machines from simple materials.

As Black Bolt's brother, he had repeatedly staged coups to challenge Black Bolt's authority. However, everything he once possessed vanished in an experiment involving the Terrigen Crystal.

The former superhumans have become ordinary people. In a society with a clear hierarchy among superhumans, this is undoubtedly a fall from royalty to commoners.

Maximus was forced into the underground world, a place usually reserved for ordinary people. This stark contrast led the already mentally unstable former ability user to plot even more rebellions.

But today, he was inexplicably given a message by Gorgon, telling him to take over Atilian from now on.

This made Maximus feel insulted. How could he have gotten what he wanted so easily?

That's why the above happened. As the Inhuman King, Black Bolt naturally had to take the lead in fighting the enemy. Just in case, he preferred to hand over the throne to his family.

Just as the two brothers were arguing over the throne, Karnak, who had just gone out to gather intelligence, appeared here in a spatial distortion. Beside him was Tetanus, the big dog that had carried him through space.

"My lord, the enemy outside isn't human; it's the same robots that have appeared on Earth before. Their target is likely the entire city or even us..."

Karnak is Black Bolt's closest advisor, a wise man with the ability to detect weaknesses and a strong analytical capacity. He is a strategist for the royal family and understands the philosophy of all things.

Therefore, all it takes is to let him see the situation with his own eyes, and he will be able to judge the enemy's intentions.

Since that's the case, Atilan can no longer sit idly by and wait for death; Black Bolt's previous fighting spirit has also faded. The enemy's target is their own people; how could they possibly let the enemy succeed?

Black Bolt gestured, indicating, "Brother, bring everyone up from below. I know you've become their leader. I'm initiating the city transfer; they can't die down there."

Maximus looked at Black Bolt and sneered, "It seems you know the whole city inside and out, but you don't know that I've already covered the entire city with anti-gravity devices!"

Maximus reached out and manipulated the device on his wrist, saying, "I originally planned to destroy the entire city, but I never expected it to be used here..."

As Maximus moved, the entire city of Attilius began to tremble violently. The earth outside the protective shield began to crack, and the underground rock and soil, like icebergs beneath the sea, carried Attilius slowly into the sky.

As the city moved, the large dog Tetanus, which had just teleported people, kept nudging the woman in yellow next to it with its head.

Tetanus is a large dog resembling a bulldog. When enhanced, it possesses teleportation abilities, allowing it to send one or more creatures or objects to wherever it desires, typically from the moon to Earth.

He can even open channels between different dimensions and teleport through energy barriers.

He is Crystal's partner, and now he is rubbing his head against Crystal, conveying some message.

After understanding the meaning of tetanus, Crystal exclaimed in surprise.

Crystal looked at Black Bolt on the throne with an embarrassed expression, then reached out and touched Tetanus, saying, "There's no time to explain, Tetanus, take me there first!"

At this moment, standing on the distant crater of Attil, Ash and the others watched the drama unfold for who knows how long, until the entire city took to the sky.

At that moment, space distorted, and Tetanus and Crystal, wearing protective suits, appeared next to Ash and the others.

"No time to explain! Get the dog!"

------------

Chapter 427: Stranded on the Moon

A girl riding a big dog is beckoning them to get on the dog.

When Ash and the others saw this scene, they were completely baffled, but at the same time, a spiritual force descended upon them.

But they were instantly repelled by the platinum-gold light that bounced off everyone, and the blessing Ash had cast before manifested at this moment.

At that moment, the big dog with tetanus collapsed to the ground, limp and exhausted.

Logan immediately stepped in front of the crowd, his adamantium claws already extended, awaiting orders from behind.

The big dog with tetanus threw the crystal on its body to the ground. It weakly supported its body with its front paws and nudged the crystal next to it with its head.
