Chapter 316: Force Starscream to surrender and subdue the Decepticons! Unify the Earth!
“Another Decepticon has arrived. Looks like Starscream.”
Tang Weilong, the pilot of the Storm Crimson, had already noticed Red Spider’s trail through the red warning information he had identified on the holographic screen.
Looking at Red Spider’s basic data, he reported the situation here to the headquarters and asked whether they needed to capture the other party.
Tang Weilong’s original mission was to deal with Megatron, a Decepticon, but the appearance of Starscream forced him to work overtime.
[Immediately capture the Red Spider, and try to keep one alive for questioning, so that we don’t have to repair them. ]
V replied that, strictly speaking, the Transformers had extremely strong vitality, and as long as the core area was preserved, even if they lost their limbs, it would not be a big problem.
It just takes time and effort to repair.
“Yes!”
After receiving V’s order, Tang Weilong immediately took control of the Storm Crimson and plunged into the battle again.
At this moment, Red Spider had no idea that he had already been targeted by Storm Crimson.
Its current location is behind the Storm Crimson, a few kilometers away, so it should not be discovered.
But Storm Red suddenly activated the flight mode, and its advanced antimatter engine system allowed it to soar into the sky. Then Storm Red turned around and pounced towards Red Spider.
Just when Red Spider suddenly realized that something was wrong, the gravitational field released by Storm Red forced its movements to slow down several times.
Thanks to the Halo universe, the Universal Corporation has perfectly inherited the Forerunner’s gravitational field technology by exploding the Forerunner civilization’s technological points.
This mature technology was naturally transferred to the combat systems of various departments of giant enterprises. For example, the Hunter Mecha Team was equipped with these complete gravitational field generating devices.
As the Storm Crimson gradually approached, Red Spider, who had been able to move a little, began to be completely “imprisoned” in place, as if he had been cast under a spell of immobilization.
At this moment, Red Spider felt like he was in an invisible giant washing machine. The gravitational field around him was fluctuating violently, and the chaotic force field made him lose his direction.
Even its own machine parts could no longer support the chaotic and heavy force field and gradually collapsed and disintegrated.
“How is this going?!”
The terrified Red Spider finally fell to the ground uncontrollably and landed heavily in the wasteland in the suburbs.
Rumble——!
With a roar, Storm Crimson flew towards where Red Spider fell. Dazzling blue and white light flashed on the joints of its body, which was the light from the engine.
Before Red Spider could struggle to get up from the grass, Storm Crimson stepped on its body.
During this period, Red Spider still wanted to resist, but the damage it caused to Storm Red was negligible and could not cause any substantial threat at all.
“Calm down, I don’t mean any harm to you.”
Tang Weilong said this, but the force under his feet did not decrease. Instead, he stepped a little harder, pressing Red Spider to the point that he was almost falling apart.
“Listen carefully. If you don’t want to end up like Megatron, just be obedient and don’t even think about putting up any useless resistance.”
“Otherwise you’ll die a horrible death! I promise.”
Tang Weilong’s advice to “calm the core” instantly calmed down the uncooperative Red Spider. It looked carefully at Storm Red in front of it, and thought about Megatron who had a miserable end.
It is obvious that this guy in front of him with unknown origin must be some powerful and ruthless character, and he can never be an ordinary Transformer.
“Who are you and what are you going to do?!”
Starscream tried to find out the other party’s true identity. His thoughts were the same as Optimus Prime’s before, wondering if the other party might be a missing Original Prime.
After all, the appearance of Storm Red is too different from the styles of other Transformers.
On the planet Cybertron, there are giant Transformers that are over 20 meters tall, but those Transformers are just “tools” used for certain specific functions.
For example, the Ankylosaurus, which is 1495 meters tall and weighs more than tons, is the Decepticon’s giant battle fortress.
But the positioning of Ankylosaurus is combat equipment, which is different from individuals like Decepticons.
The “Transformers” like Storm and Crimson have different styles and varied fighting methods, which makes Starscream guess that the opponent comes from the distant ancient times.
“You will know when the time comes.”
Tang Weilong ignored Starscream’s questions. He came here for only one purpose, which was to pack up all these Decepticons and take them away.
Seeing that Storm Red did not reveal his identity, Red Spider was shocked. He became more certain that the other party was a supreme ancestor who came to seek revenge.
Red Spider once learned from the new boss Zhen Tianzun that there were actually 13 supreme ancestors created by Yuanshi Tianzun, 6 of whom died in battle or went missing.
Maybe Storm Red is one of the disappeared supreme beings!
Thinking of this possibility, Red Spider finally calmed down, because he knew that the other party, like Megatron, needed more helpers in order to achieve his goal.
The reason why Starscream, Shockwave and others chose to join Megatronus was because they were impressed by the new boss’s business capabilities and his entrepreneurial projects that were outstanding enough and had development prospects.
Collecting energy by blasting numerous stars, what a grand and wonderful plan. If they follow such a boss until the company goes public, they can also enjoy the good life.
But if the mysterious supreme being in front of you also has a good entrepreneurial project and can offer you chips and conditions that make you excited, it is not impossible for you to change jobs and work for him.
Anyway, in Red Spider’s heart, he just wants to be the boss, or at the very least, the second-in-command of a big force, a powerful role at the level of department general manager.
It doesn’t matter who it follows.
“Okay, I can go with you.”
After some careful consideration, Starscream temporarily chose to submit to the other party.
No matter what, it’s okay to agree to the other party’s conditions first. If you can’t agree on the conditions and treatment, it’s not too late to stab them in the back later.
Red Spider has no moral burden about being a traitor. As long as it can achieve its goal, it can give everything it has.
“very good!”
Hearing that Starscream was more aware of the situation than Megatron, Tang Weilong also controlled Storm Crimson to loosen his feet and let Starscream carry the disabled Megatron.
In the coming period of time, Tang Weilong will take Starscream to all parts of the world to conquer the Decepticons.
At first, Red Spider was a little unwilling, because doing so would be tantamount to openly surrendering to the enemy and betraying his newly recognized boss, Zhen Tianzun.
After all, it is the second-in-command among the Decepticons, and its repeated jumps will easily lead to gossip.
But after careful consideration, Red Spider had no choice but to accept it and follow Storm Red to recruit his own brothers everywhere. It thought that it was just a token of its loyalty.
It was because it couldn’t contact Megatronus for a long time, and there was such a powerful Transformer threatening it. If it didn’t agree, all the Decepticons would die.
Over at the Wanjie Base headquarters, in less than half an hour, the Hunter Mecha Squad sent out by V achieved a phased victory.
He nodded with satisfaction.
This is the experienced interstellar governor, who first ordered his men to cripple the Decepticon leader, and then forced senior executives of the organization such as Starscream and Shockwave to persuade them to surrender.
Isn’t this more efficient than calling each one one by one? !
At this moment, half an hour after Megatronus issued a global warning, the Decepticons on Earth suffered a devastating blow.
Those who surrendered, those who refused to obey, and those who escaped were all arrested by the hunter mechas sent by the giant company.
Since the signals from the Earth had long been intercepted by the giant corporations, all the request messages they sent to Zhen Tianzun did not receive any response.
Under the persuasion of Starscream and Shockwave, most of the Decepticons chose to submit to the world giant.
Only a very small number of Decepticons were quick-witted and managed to escape capture by the giant corporation by fleeing to outer space.
Just when the arrest operation by the global giant corporation was coming to an end, the governments of various countries on Earth, which had been slow to realize the situation, began to come to their senses.
They were very confused by the emergence of the global giant. After all, there was no famous technology company on earth with this name.
At first, humans and governments of various countries on Earth in “Transformers” suspected that this giant company was a super technology group hidden in America.
After all, the only region that controls the most advanced technology is the United States in North America, and no one else can defeat the Decepticons. Before the United States could respond, the governments of various countries saw a huge interstellar fleet appear in the Earth’s low-Earth orbit.
It was not until this time that everyone suddenly realized that the Universal Corporation could not be a certain force organization on Earth, they were more likely to come from other civilizations!
At this time, in a military base somewhere in the United States.
“The President has urged you many times to contact the Universal Corporation as soon as possible and find out their true identity.”
“But it’s been so long and you haven’t made any progress at all! You are such a bunch of useless people.”
The person who started to curse at the American generals was the president’s special envoy, who was responsible for supervising the relationship between the United States and the world’s giant companies.
Governments around the world are well aware that the Global Giant Corporation is an advanced civilization that is here to save humanity.
No matter what their purpose is, countries that reach communication or even cooperation with giant companies now will definitely not suffer losses in the future.
After all, if Megacorp is also a villain that wants to destroy the earth, there is no need to go to the trouble of stopping the Decepticons from causing destruction.
Faced with the special envoy’s angry scolding, the generals could only frown, lower their heads and endure the scolding in silence.
In the past half hour, they had been just playing a supporting role. They could neither attack and defeat the Decepticons nor contact the Universal Corporation, appearing to be very weak and incompetent.
It was not until the observer in the base suddenly reported that everyone’s worries turned into joy.
[Report! A warship is entering the atmosphere from low-Earth orbit, and they are heading towards Washington! ]
……
Inside the Skyhawk shuttle cabin during its descent into the Washington area.
“Everyone, the government leader of the Transformers Earth is America. In other words, the government of this country is our primary contact target.”
The person who spoke was Rita, an officer in the Advance Team of the Universe. This time she was responsible for going to Washington to negotiate with the US government.
Of course, rather than calling it a negotiation, it is more like issuing a notice to give the other party a heads-up in advance so that they can come and line up earlier.
“The top brass of the American government on this planet are pretty stupid and short-sighted. The boss doesn’t expect anything from these idiots, so we need a new group of people to replace them.”
“As for the means used, it is still the same old routine, first divide the internal forces, then win them over and suppress them, and finally take them in as dogs.”
After working in the global giant system for so many years, Rita has also progressed from the initial grassroots combat member to a management position.
Rita also learned Leon’s basic tricks of “treating, beheading, and accepting as a dog” for senior executives of giant companies quite well.
Now is the time to use it in the work process.
“understand!”
Among the employees of the giant company who nodded in response, there were members specifically responsible for negotiations, as well as fully armed Spartan warriors, including Chini from the Fremen tribe.
At this moment, Chini has become one of Rita’s personal guards, responsible for protecting her safety.
Seeing that everyone understood the mission of this trip, Rita nodded.
According to information from headquarters, in the “Transformers” Earth, the stupid American government has done mysterious and bizarre things more than once or twice.
Among the many Transformers, the Autobots are one of the few “good guys” who don’t want the earth to be destroyed, but America naively believes that without the Autobots, the Decepticons will not invade.
In addition, America, knowing full well that humans are the weaker party, still dares to unscrupulously ask Optimus Prime for Transformers’ technological information.
If the Autobots had any worse sense of morality, the human species would have been extinct.
Therefore, the giant companies treat these American executives who are confused about their position in the same way as they treat the corrupt UNSC executives in “Halo”.
Those who know the current situation will continue to be retained, and those who dare to resist will be executed on the spot and replaced by another group of people.
“This time, our main target group is the senior executives of the United States. If we take them down, the giant companies will be able to accelerate the progress of global integration.”
Rita reminded.
Through the information from the headquarters, she knew that the grassroots soldiers in the “Transformers” universe were still quite sober, and the main problem was that the politicians and senior officials behind the scenes were not human.
While the soldiers on the front line are fighting for their lives, they are doing all kinds of small things in the back for their own selfish reasons.
“In short, the boss doesn’t want to waste too much time on unifying the Earth. This time, we must do it cleanly and neatly without any dragging.”
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the cabin showed an eager attitude, and they all had different expectations for this mission.
Some people hope to follow the established route plan, through micro-manipulations such as division and winning over, to take down the American government and then control countries around the world.
But some employees hope that a bloodbath against American senior officials will break out as soon as possible.
As long as it does not affect the ordinary people at the bottom, those high-level officials who hold power are just a bunch of chickens and dogs. They can be killed and replaced with another group.
After all, who wouldn’t want to be the master?
“I hope the conflict breaks out sooner rather than later, so that it will be easier for us to completely take over Earth 006.”
At this time, one of the Spartan warriors smiled and said that they did not come here to argue with the local humans. The Creator civilization and the Cybertronians were the primary targets of the giant company.
But the sergeant who was the leader of the Spartan squad shook his head and said calmly: “We still have to use courtesy before force and put our conditions and demands on the table.”
“Those who can accept it will naturally choose to join us, and those who cannot accept it will also help us to distinguish who is the enemy and who is the ally.”
“It will be convenient for us to catch them all at once then.”
The Master Chief’s idea was deeply recognized by Rita. She also thought that they didn’t need to spend time and energy on violence and bloodbath. They could just state the conditions directly.
Seeing their superior and leader say so, the other Spartans nodded and echoed in unison: “Yes! Sir.”
A few minutes later, the shuttle slowly landed at a military base in Washington.
This military base belongs to the NEST department of the United States, which is a special organization established by the US government specifically to deal with the invasion of the Decepticons.
In the past, the combat units of the NEST department have fought against the Decepticons many times.
At this moment, everyone in NEST is on high alert for the arrival of the Skyhawk shuttle.
“See that guy? He’s a security adviser to the U.S. government and a special envoy of the president. His name is Galloway.”
Rita presented the character information sent from the headquarters to everyone through the holographic screen, and all the information about Galloway was clear at a glance.
Galloway is a politician who advocates giving up cooperation with the Autobots. During negotiations with the Autobots, he even leaked Megatron’s death location to the Decepticons in order to balance the power of the Autobots.
It can be said that the reason why Megatron was able to be resurrected was that this old guy made a lot of efforts behind the scenes.
“This guy has some skills, but he knows nothing about the human condition.”
Rita didn’t like Galloway. She thought that only a politician who could see the situation clearly was worthy of the title of a politician. Otherwise, he was just a greedy fool.
Galloway wanted to balance the situation between the Autobots and the Decepticons, but he completely ignored the fact that humans were the weaker party. As the weaker party, they were not qualified to perform such high-end operations as balancing.
By doing this, he is gambling the fate of all mankind on a scale that could collapse at any time.
Rita thought for a moment, then said, “The staff in charge of the negotiations, please don’t move for now. Stop here and wait. John, go talk to the people down there.”
Rita knew that Galloway’s rank was not high enough, and she didn’t want to waste time talking to these people before the US government sent someone of sufficient importance.
“Yes!”
The Chief Sergeant nodded. Given Rita’s current staff rank, Galloway was indeed not qualified to negotiate with her.
As for the negotiation, the sergeant didn’t understand it, but he knew how to intimidate these American generals.
Let them see the individual strength of a giant enterprise.
