The giant corporations that started from Night City
Chapter 323: To the World 1 The moment you think of it, the world becomes vast!
Chapter 323 The moment you think of rebirth, the world becomes vast!
At this time, V, who was supervising the lunar exploration mission at the front-line base headquarters, was listening attentively to Leon’s speech with his adjutant David.
“The idea of the Archenemy is contrary to the philosophy of the Autobots and Decepticons. It drives the Ark alone and brings a bunch of energy pillars to the solar system.”
“These energy pillars are the key props to open the space bridge, which is a wormhole device that can achieve the transition of celestial-level objects.”
Leon analyzed the situation in detail to V across the hard-light screen. The plot line of the Transformers universe was too long and too complicated to be explained in just one or two meetings.
Therefore, during the integration process, Li Ang often helps his trusted senior officials to analyze the situation so that they can quickly understand the relationship between the various forces.
By the way, cultivate the working mindset of senior management of each department.
During this conversation, Li Ang emphasized the “space bridge” technology, which is a technological point that V must strive to obtain in the future.
As the front-line hunter mecha team got closer and closer to their destination, Leon stopped talking and stared at the screen intently.
According to Starscream and Shockwave’s previous confessions, after landing on Earth and the Moon, they only took the spacecraft’s batteries in preparation for a fight.
And did not touch the natural enemy.
If nothing unexpected happened, Yu Tiandi should still be lying dead on the moon.
Not long after, the first group of members of the Hunter Mecha Squadron discovered the crash site of the Skybreaker. Looking at the wreckage of the damaged spacecraft, they immediately reported the situation to the headquarters.
“We have found the spaceship piloted by the Sky-Enemy. Repeat again…!”
“We found the spaceship of the enemy!”
In an instant, all the members of the Hunter Mech Team gathered together and stayed where they were, on standby.
……
On the other hand, at Leon’s instruction, Otto Cunningham also took the time to tell Optimus Prime the news of his discovery of Megatron, and also let the other party know the whole truth of the matter.
All of Megatron’s actions and thoughts were known to Optimus Prime and other Autobots.
“This is the whole truth. The former leader of the Autobots, Archenemy, not only betrayed the original intention of the Autobots, but also colluded with the Decepticon camp, intending to plunder the energy of the earth to rebuild the new Cybertron.”
As soon as Ultra finished speaking, all the Autobots were stunned. In the version of information they had learned, after Megatron drove the Ark away, he was shot down by the Decepticons.
Logically speaking, the Megatron and the Decepticons should be enemies, so how could they collude with each other?
What’s more serious is that what Skybreaker wants to do is actually the same as Megatron, which is to develop Cybertron civilization by plundering the earth’s energy.
While the Autobots were discussing and denouncing Optimus Prime’s behavior, only Optimus Prime remained strangely silent.
In fact, it knew about the entrepreneurial plan of its teacher Optimus Prime, but Optimus Prime always pretended not to know because it was not willing to help the other party do such a heinous thing.
Even the Ark of the Skybreakers was a hyperdrive engine that was destroyed by Optimus Prime himself.
But what Optimus Prime did not expect was that his old leader and teacher actually colluded with the Decepticons to do such a thing.
If this is the case, then the problem is very serious!
Because this will not only ruin Optimus Prime’s reputation, but will also affect Optimus Prime’s future.
Skyrim is Optimus Prime’s teacher and former leader. Even Optimus Prime’s second-in-command position was promoted by him personally.
Now that such a huge scandal is about to be exposed about Yu Tiandi, it is likely that its former good student and second-in-command will be implicated.
But if it is for the greater good of one’s own country, Optimus Prime would feel a little reluctant to do so out of personal conscience.
“No, that’s impossible, there must be some misunderstanding here!”
At this time, Optimus Prime shook his head and denied it firmly. He was not questioning whether this was the truth fabricated by the giant enterprise, but was trying to preserve the good reputation of his teacher Optimus Prime.
“The Autobot is the leader of us Autobots and also my teacher. No one knows him better than us!”
Optimus Prime said righteously.
In fact, colluding with the Decepticons is not a big problem. If you want to clear your name, you can just say that you were coerced or bewitched by the Decepticons and were just accidentally bewildered.
Besides, the Decepticons are originally Cybertronians, and it’s just an internal fight among their own family, which is nothing.
But if the route is wrong, then there will be big problems, and it will really cause a big mess!
The development path of the Autobots has always been to be self-reliant, respect the ecological environment of other civilized species, and not cause trouble for other civilizations.
Even when they are threatened by other Transformers, the Autobots will take the initiative to rescue them.
Originally, only Optimus Prime and Skyrim knew that Skyrim had started his own business and wanted to build a new Cybertron.
As long as Optimus Prime keeps his mouth shut and doesn’t tell anyone, Metroid will still be a good teacher to him and a good leader of the Autobots, and everything will be normal.
It is well known that the Archenemy wants to destroy the planets of other civilizations in order to extract the energy for rebuilding Cybertron, and even colludes with the Decepticons to do this.
That is a pure route error problem!
This is quite dangerous.
Just imagine that even the Autobots’ former leader, a top figure, has begun to take the path of plunder and infringement.
Does this mean that the Autobots’ path of justice and mutual assistance is wrong in the first place?
Once the Autobots’ principles begin to waver, there will inevitably be signs of internal division.
When that time really comes, not to mention whether Optimus Prime will step down, I’m afraid that new Decepticons will appear in the entire Autobot community!
This is definitely not the situation that Optimus Prime wants to see.
“When he disappeared, he was the leader of the Autobots, and he is still the leader now. It is impossible for him to betray his people!”
Optimus Prime continued to express his stance, stating that he firmly stood on the side of Megatron, and at the same time he was also hinting to Ultra to beg for mercy, telling him to stop fucking talking!
If we continue talking like this, there will really be big problems among the Autobots.
Obviously, a leader like Optimus Prime who has experienced political struggles can easily see that the global giant corporation is deliberately setting a trap for him.
His main purpose is to use his good teacher, Yu Tiandi, as a handle to control the Autobots and himself.
Optimus Prime knew very well in his mind that he now had absolute prestige among the Autobots.
It has already locked in on being the new leader of the Autobots, and may even become the most outstanding leader in the history of the Autobots.
As long as he gives an order, countless Autobots or other Transformers, as well as the civilizations that the Autobots have helped, will work for him.
But once this matter comes to light, Optimus Prime’s good image will be tarnished with a layer of black material due to the rebellion of his teacher Megatron.
The Autobots follow the path of justice, and the supreme leader is not allowed to have any black material. Once there is, there is no guarantee that other Autobots will not have evil intentions!
“We understand your confusion and anger, but this is the fact. This is the information we learned from Starscream and other Decepticons.”
Ott Cunningham showed no emotion at all. She knew that she would not be able to convince Optimus Prime and the other Autobots just by talking.
Therefore, we have to wait until the employees of the giant company on the front line on the moon have completely defeated the enemy and obtained conclusive evidence.
In fact, Ultra also knew that revealing this secret would cause turmoil within the Autobots, but her boss Leon did it anyway, and she had to obey Leon’s orders.
The reason for doing this is very simple. What Optimus Prime did is an extremely destructive political stain for Optimus Prime.
If the Autobots start to disobey discipline under the leadership of Optimus Prime one day, Leon can throw out this stain at any time and instantly disintegrate the Autobots internally.
Exposing the crimes of Yu Tiandi is a must, but not many people know about this. First of all, this mission is a top-secret mission of a giant company, and the people who carry it out are carefully selected.
Secondly, the Autobots who followed Optimus Prime here are basically his trusted backbones, and they are the group that supports Optimus Prime to become the leader of the new generation of Autobots.
They have long been deeply tied to Optimus Prime’s future.
Apart from these Autobots, other Autobots don’t know the specific situation.
As long as Leon controls Optimus Prime, it is equivalent to controlling Optimus Prime forever. Relying on the other party’s political stain, Optimus Prime must obey the orders of Megacorp.
Otherwise, Leon could bring out his teacher, Yutiandi, for a public trial at any time, and then instigate others to cause internal divisions among the Autobots, which would be very easy.
From the very beginning, Leon had taken into account Optimus Prime and the Autobots, the exchange of interests between the two sides, and the deadly killing moves.
As long as the Autobots dare to rebel against the world’s giant corporations, the price they pay will be more painful than they imagined.
Neutron annihilation can only cause the death of a living being in an instant, without even having time to feel pain.
However, if a race is trapped in internal strife and killing each other for a long time, every member of the race will feel the pain of a knife cutting their hearts at every moment.
Leon believed that since Optimus Prime was a smart Autobot leader, he would not take the initiative to let Megacorp expose its political stains.
At this moment, Optimus Prime was silent.
Although it has not met Li Ang yet, it has personally experienced Li Ang’s methods. This man’s mind is really too terrifying!
Optimus Prime knew that he was no match for the Universal Corporation, and he began to re-examine the faces of Ultra, Dr. Halsey and others.
At this time, Optimus Prime finally understood why humans, although so weak, could develop a powerful civilization like the Universe Corporation.
The political wisdom of this civilized species is terrifying, and they cannot compare to it. The fact that Le Ang, the executive of a giant company, can lead these people across the universe is enough to prove his ability and means!
“Well, we will patiently wait for the results of your investigation. If this really happens, I will definitely follow the arrangements of the Universal Corporation!”
Optimus Prime paused for a moment, then said this with conviction. Of course, the only sentence he really wanted to say was “obey the arrangements of the giant company.”
And this is what Li Ang wanted to hear.
Then, Optimus Prime asked cautiously, “If this is true, how do you plan to deal with the Skybreaker?”
When Optimus Prime asked this question, what he was thinking deep in his heart was to meet with his teacher Optimus Prime and persuade him to commit suicide so as not to leave any handle for Megacorp.
Or let the giant enterprise take action on its own and execute Yu Tiandi, but this is obviously impossible.
“This is kept secret for now.” Otto did not take over Optimus Prime’s words and continued to make requests to the other party, saying: “We want to learn about the space bridge technology, which is a technology developed by the Sky Enemy.”
“After subduing Yu Tiandi, I need Yu Tiandi and your related personnel to cooperate and hand over this technology to us.”
The space bridge technology is one of the key projects for the integration of the Transformers universe chosen by Leon. Now that a giant global company has come here, this technology must be acquired.
Different from the unrestrained throwing-type transportation style of [Quantum Slingshot], the space bridge can use wormholes to establish a complete celestial-level transportation system.
Once mass-produced replication is achieved, the cargo transportation, megastructure deployment, and halo array layout of the world’s giant companies will be able to complete their tasks with higher efficiency.
This can greatly enhance the trade system and military defense capabilities of the world’s giant companies!
Seeing that the global giant was eating and taking things along the way, many Autobots were quite dissatisfied, but Optimus Prime nodded and agreed without hesitation.
With the bargaining chips that the global giant now has in its hands, it has no capital to refuse at all. If it nods and agrees in time, it may be able to bring the two sides closer.
“Okay, no problem!” Optimus Prime nodded.
Compared with the internal division of the Autobots, the public trial of their teacher, the public opinion storm they themselves were caught up in, and the surrender of an insignificant space bridge technology, this was nothing.
Optimus Prime knew very well that space bridge technology might be valuable, but it was just that to the giant corporation in the universe and was not a particularly important technological point.
Perhaps the “consultation” raised by Otto this time was just a simple obedience test.
Upon seeing this, the other Autobots also kept their mouths shut, not daring to say anything more. They were not idiots and knew that what happened today had to be kept strictly confidential within the company.
Once it is revealed, it will cause severe internal turmoil among the Autobots!
At this moment, Optimus Prime kept sighing in his heart, thinking that his old boss, Skyrim, had really harmed him badly this time.
……
Soon, under Otto’s full arrangement, this group of Autobots was escorted back home and could personally participate in the lunar exploration operation.
This was an order issued by Leon, allowing two or three Autobots to go to the moon and participate in the operation to arrest the Autobot. This move could be considered a concession to the Autobots, and at the same time a warning to the other side.
On the way back, the core members of the Autobots had a series of discussions around the matter of Megatron.
They are all die-hard supporters of Optimus Prime, and are key figures who have silently supported Optimus Prime all the way from second-in-command to the leader of the Autobots.
Now that this has happened, they certainly don’t want all their previous efforts to go to waste.
At this time, someone suggested taking the opportunity to kill Autobot, so that the global giant would not use it to threaten the Autobots. This scourge must be eliminated sooner or later.
Some people also suggested that they should expose Optimus Prime’s crimes now, since no one in the Autobots has the prestige to match Optimus Prime for the time being.
By then, it will be Optimus Prime who will take charge of the overall situation. This will also help to avoid being caught by giant companies with political stains as much as possible.
But after careful analysis by Optimus Prime, it was able to realize that neither of these two paths would work.
The former would offend the Universe Corporation. After all, the Autobots still had the space bridge technology, which was something Leon had chosen and was also one of the bargaining chips for the transaction between the Corporation and the Autobots.
The latter will directly cause divisions within the Autobots. Now that the overall situation is uncertain and this explosive scandal has emerged, it will be really difficult for the Cybertronians to recover!
It is obvious that these hidden dangers can be dealt with gently by cooperating with global giants, so why do we have to resist to the end?
“Okay, let’s do as the giant company says.”
When Optimus Prime thought about the things revealed by the Universal Corporation, his mood became heavier. He whispered to everyone:
“Although all the Decepticons on Earth have been taken down by the giant corporations, there are still many Decepticons in other places.”
“We have to deal with this troublesome matter of Yu Tiandi as soon as possible. At least we can’t let it get out, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!”
Optimus Prime is an Autobot leader with a broad perspective. As for dealing with Optimus Prime, just leave it to the Autobots and the giant corporation to carry out the secret execution.
There’s no need to make it known to everyone.
Ever since the Decepticon leaders, such as Megatron and Red Spider, joined the Cosmos Corporation, Optimus Prime has been thinking about integrating the interior of Cybertron as soon as possible.
Let the Autobots and Decepticons reconcile from now on, but this process still requires the help of the world’s giant companies, including but not limited to military assistance!
If a split occurs among the Autobots before they are fully integrated on Cybertron, then Optimus Prime’s time as the Autobot leader will be over.
At this time, Optimus Prime and one of the Autobots looked at each other. It was called “Ironhide”, who was Optimus Prime’s adjutant and could be regarded as Optimus Prime’s old friend and personal bodyguard.
The other party’s loyalty is beyond doubt.
On this exploration journey to the moon, Optimus Prime plans to take Ironhide and Bumblebee with him.
“We will reach the moon in half an hour. We will go there together, and the rest of you will stay on Earth and wait.”
Bumblebee said impatiently. What he was thinking was the same as Optimus Prime’s, which was to meet Megatron as soon as possible and capture the old guy for interrogation.
Optimus Prime nodded slightly. After thinking about it just now and summarizing the information from various channels, he probably understood the whole truth of the matter.
After he destroyed the Ark’s hyperdrive engine with a single shot, Yu Tiandi drove the Ark down to the moon and was accidentally seriously injured.
At that time, the Decepticon leader Megatron had already established contact with Megatron.
Megatron ordered his subordinates not to touch the Ark and Megatron. The reason was naturally to save Megatron.
The purpose of resurrecting Megatron is not only because he is a key strategic partner of the Decepticons, but also because Megatron controls the core technology of the space bridge.
Optimus Prime guessed that the agreement reached between Megatron and Metroid was to use the space bridge to migrate Cybertron to this side of the solar system, and then use the energy of the Earth to rebuild Cybertron.
In order to save Megatron, they must get the Allspark. Unfortunately, as soon as Megatron arrived on Earth, he was smashed into an ice cave by a meteorite.
The Decepticons who had just arrived in the solar system had no way of contacting their boss Megatron, so even though they had discovered the Ark, they did nothing.
He simply took out the Ark’s energy battery and prepared to use it as his own backup energy source to facilitate fighting and causing trouble on Earth.
At this time, Optimus Prime sighed helplessly and shook his head: “Let’s go and rush over to see the situation as soon as possible.”
After thinking these things through, Optimus Prime found it increasingly difficult to understand his teacher.
It really doesn’t know what to say about Yu Tiandi. His intentions were obviously good, but the series of things he did were extremely bad.
“Boss, I don’t think this is a bad thing. On the contrary, from the attitude shown by Universal Corporation, at least we can see that they hope to cooperate with us!”
As Optimus Prime’s loyal lieutenant, Ironhide saw the other party’s worry at a glance, and he spoke to comfort him.
“Megacorp could have used the betrayal of the Autobots to split the Autobots and install their own puppets in power, but they didn’t do that.”
“Instead, they chose to deal with this matter with us, which shows that the giant company is interested in helping us, the Autobots.”
“What we have to do is to cooperate with the giant companies to unify the universe, expand our own universal trade system, and develop human civilization.”
In Ironhide’s opinion, the Autobots can fully leverage the power of the Cosmic Giant Corporation to quickly complete the integration of Cybertron and develop Cybertron civilization.
As for helping the global giant company integrate the Transformers universe, that is also a matter of course.
After all, to put it bluntly, the purpose of the world’s giant corporations is to use the labor of various species and civilizations to serve as dogs and cheap labor for the giant corporations’ trade system.
But given the size of a giant company, giving these dogs a bowl of rice to eat is far more attractive than letting them develop civilization on their own.
Whether to be a dog eating the emperor’s food under the rule of giant enterprises, or to be exterminated by giant enterprises in an inhumane way, it believes that most civilizations will make the right choice.
After hearing Ironhide’s words, Optimus Prime was visibly stunned. This made complete sense!
As soon as the thought of returning to the world arises, the world becomes vast in an instant.
No matter what, at least the situation is still under control. By following the route arranged by the giant company, the Autobots will at least not fall into the dilemma of division.
“You’re right. No matter what, at least we still have a choice now!”
Optimus Prime regained his spirit and immediately made a series of assignments to his subordinates. Ironhide and Bumblebee followed him to the moon.
The rest of the people continued to stay on Earth on standby.
Afterwards, the two Autobots took separate actions, and Optimus Prime led his lieutenants to fly to the coordinates given by the Universal Corporation.
After a while, the three successfully arrived at their destination, where they saw the wreckage of the Ark and other members of the Hunter Mecha Team.
After seeing Optimus Prime and others arrive, Cage, the captain of the Hunter Mecha Team, immediately called on them to explore the wreckage of the Ark together.
After all, the Ark is a technological product of Cybertron civilization. If the people from the giant company rush in rashly, they may accidentally touch other switch devices and cause unnecessary trouble.
Letting Optimus Prime and other Autobots explore together can also avoid these troubles.
In addition, this was also an opportunity deliberately arranged by Li Ang, the purpose of which was to allow the other party to have access to first-hand information, in order to demonstrate the giant company’s sincerity in cooperation.
After landing on the moon, because the gravity of the moon is much smaller than that of the earth, every Autobot felt that their body was light, but their hearts were extremely heavy.
If they really had a choice, they would hope that the natural enemies in the Ark had already died, and that they were dead beyond death.
This way, the Autobots would have one less huge hidden danger.
“Yes, that’s it.”
Optimus Prime recognized the wreckage of the spaceship at a glance. It was the long-lost Ark. After all, it was he who destroyed the engine of this thing.
Soon, Optimus Prime came to the edge of the Ark. He touched the wreckage of the spacecraft and secretly marveled at how strong this spacecraft was.
It can be called a miracle that it has not completely collapsed into ruins after tens of thousands of years and its basic framework is still preserved.
