Initially, the Transformers didn't even consider humans a threat.
This was true even for the Autobots, who held some goodwill towards the young human race.
They all believed that on Earth, the Autobots' only enemy was the Decepticons!
But now, it seemed that even Megatron could be controlled by humans!
And with Cyborg casually taking out Barricade, who wasn't weak by any means in the grand scheme of the Transformers...
Did that mean, if the Autobots weren't careful, they'd gain another enemy in the form of humanity?
Bumblebee pondered this, intending to relay the intel he'd gathered to Optimus Prime, who was en route.
Suddenly, he saw a person staring directly at him, expressionless.
Cyborg!
Bumblebee felt a chill.
Thinking about how Cyborg easily deleted the message Frenzy was trying to send to the Decepticons when he killed him.
He immediately suppressed his thoughts.
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine roared, and a huge object attracted everyone's attention.
Outside the junkyard, a large truck slowly drove in.
A Western Star 5700.
This truck was known as the "supercar" of the trucking world!
Its appearance was domineering, and it exuded a sense of stability and reliability everywhere.
The front of the truck had an extra-large air intake grille, which gave it a strong sense of power. The thick exhaust pipes on both sides were majestic, and the dog-nose design at the front was considered a classic.
Many people recognized the identity of this truck at a glance.
Everyone looked at each other.
They clearly hadn't expected the Autobots' leader to be anything other than a top-of-the-line supercar, but a heavy-duty truck.
On second thought.
This fit their image of the Autobots' boss even better.
Only a heavy-duty truck could possess such domineering aura, a truly unique presence.
"That's Optimus Prime?"
Beside Anton, Kler stared at the slowly approaching truck. His expression was grave, and he gradually felt an indescribable pressure, as if facing some terrifying behemoth.
"Indeed."
Anton nodded, admiring the approaching Optimus Prime and the truck's design.
In a way, the casting of the Transformers was indeed perfect.
This truck was entirely worthy of Optimus Prime's status.
"Assemble!"
Tom shouted, and all the agents immediately gathered.
Vroom! Vroom!
Bumblebee revved his engine, did a quick spin, and then, under the watching eyes, merged with the oncoming truck.
The next moment.
Clank!
Both transformed, shifting into their robot forms to confront the humans before them.
"Gulp!"
Several people swallowed hard.
Facing the pressure of these two behemoths, their legs suddenly felt weak.
They were all highly trained agents.
Although their training differed from that of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, their psychological resilience was undeniably far superior to that of ordinary people.
Even so, it was difficult to remain calm under the pressure of their presence.
This was completely different from the feeling he'd had when facing Barricade's attack.
The robot in front of him, which had transformed from a truck, felt like a king had descended. It exerted a physiological pressure that transcended the level of life itself, rather than a psychological one.
"I am Optimus Prime."
Optimus Prime looked at all the humans in front of him, his gaze sweeping over everyone, with special attention given to Batman and Cyborg.
"We finally meet, humans."
His voice was deep, tinged with a hint of emotion.
"Optimus Prime."
Seeing that everyone except himself and Cyborg had fallen silent under the unintentional pressure released by Optimus Prime, Anton naturally stepped forward.
"I am Batman."
He introduced himself first, then spoke calmly from a human perspective: "You shouldn't be here. Of course, I mean all of you from Cybertron, not just the Autobots. What do you think?"
"It seems you know us well."
Optimus Prime didn't answer the question directly.
In fact, Bumblebee hadn't had time to tell him about the other information, but Optimus Prime already knew about Batman and Cyborg from previous communications with Bumblebee.
And… the alien attack that had occurred in New York not long ago.
After receiving the news, he and Bumblebee had the same understanding.
Humans, although a young race, didn't seem as simple as they had initially thought.
"I know the Autobots bear no ill will towards humans."
Anton spoke again: "But as you know, there shouldn't be aliens on this planet, at least... not right now."
"I understand."
Optimus Prime said, "The Autobots came to Earth, on the one hand to stop the Decepticons, and on the other hand, for the Allspark!"
Speaking of which, he implied, "Since you have a thorough understanding of Cybertron, then you must know the Allspark..."
Bumblebee, hearing Optimus Prime's words, suddenly realized that he had missed something very important in his previous thinking.
The Allspark!
"The Allspark... is actually in your hands, isn't it?"
Optimus Prime stared at Anton.
Anton, however, remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
But behind him, Kler and Tom's expressions instantly changed.
The question hit right at the heart of the matter.
Caught off guard, neither of them had thought about how to respond.
To be honest, returning the Allspark to the Autobots wasn't out of the question, but neither Kler nor Tom had the authority to make such a decision.
If they were to do so, it would require the approval of the military committee, and the president's signature!
And, more importantly, who would dare to guarantee that once the Autobots got the Allspark, they would leave Earth peacefully and never return?
No one dared to guarantee it.
This wasn't just about national security; it was about the safety of Earth!
No one was willing to take responsibility!
Anton was the same.
He would never try to persuade the military to make any choices.
Although he knew that the Autobots, under Optimus Prime's leadership, harbored no ill will towards humans, this approach, which left open the possibility of future trouble, was never Batman's style.
Wasn't that the fundamental reason for the battle between Batman and Superman?
Residential area.
Bonecrusher arrived nearby and quickly connected to the surrounding network.
The surveillance footage had already been deleted by the diligent agents, so he couldn't figure out the whole story from it.
However, the wreckage on the road not far away, looking like scrap metal, and the obvious signs of a battle allowed him to skip the process and directly get the result.
Just as Starscream had predicted.
Something unexpected had happened!
Barricade and Frenzy were dead!
They were likely killed by the humans they'd looked down on.
"What kind of tricks did these humans use to kill Barricade?"
"A weapon of mass destruction?"
"No, that's not right! There are no signs of a weapon of mass destruction having been used in the surrounding battle area. It seems...they died in a one-on-one fight?"
As a hot-headed bruiser, Bonecrusher was also, logically, a highly experienced tactical analysis expert. His mind was very sharp, though he wasn't always "clear-headed."
From the traces left behind, it was clear that other Transformers had been present.
"Autobots?"
"Who is it?"
The thought flashed through Bonecrusher's mind.
Seeing the tire tracks on the ground, Bonecrusher analyzed the route the other party had taken and immediately gave chase.
As for the ordinary humans in front of him, he had no intention of engaging them.
It was like an elephant wouldn't intentionally step on an ant.
Even though the recent flood of news had informed him that this world now had Cyborg, Batman, and others with extraordinary powers…
The human race, however, was still regarded as mere ants by Bonecrusher.
Of course, before leaving, Bonecrusher, as a member of the Decepticons, still gave Starscream some face.
He guessed that these humans were no longer completely ignorant of the Transformers, so he took pictures of several agents and sent them to Starscream, asking him to compare their identities. After that, he didn't say much.
Bonecrusher believed that Starscream, this self-important guy, would understand his meaning.
By the way, today I saw a reader friend who tipped 10,000 points! I was shocked on the spot! I've already completed four achievements, and only the completion of the book is left, and you're tipping so much? How dare you? Do you really think I can get you your money back through a film adaptation? Or do you have some other idea? It's not that I'm greedy for your hundred bucks, as the author doesn't receive the money from the investment, it's a reader benefit, I'm just curious! How dare you?
