Captain, your ship has exploded again.
Chapter 601 The dazzling light of nuclear peace illuminates the land of the United States
Unlike Optimus Prime, who was being beaten up on the deck of the Executor, Megatron, who escaped, went straight to find the Fallen.
Seeing the situation was not good, Red Spider fled again. Due to the absence of two powerful fighters, the situation became increasingly unfavorable for the human side.
On a dark planet, Megatron is kneeling before a Cybertronian who is slumped in a daze.
"Master, I have failed. Earth is about to be taken over by other races, the fire has been destroyed, and our race is about to perish."
"No, my successor, you still have much to learn. The cube is just a vessel; the energy and knowledge it contains will only be transferred, not destroyed."
"How is that possible? The cubes were used on me, but I didn't feel any of them."
"Yes, you have the scent of the Fire Seed's energy, but most of it is in that boy."
At this moment, the red spider also arrived at the hatchery.
"Your Highness, Master, the battle on Earth has been lost. If we can't get energy soon, the little bit of fuel left on the spaceship won't last much longer."
As he spoke, he took out a small Decepticon that had died due to energy depletion.
"The newborn is gradually withering away."
Cybertronians have no fixed lifespan; theoretically, they could live as long as the universe, provided there is sufficient energy.
Even if you suffer serious injuries, as long as you soak in the energy pool, the damaged metal parts on your body will be quickly restored.
This racial characteristic makes them extremely dependent on energy. Without the restraint of a powerful civilization, the Cybertronians would devour all the stars in the universe like locusts.
Megatron waved his hand and looked at Starscream, saying, "Optimus Prime is dead?"
Unlike being targeted by Flowing Light Freedom, Red Spider actively withdrew from the battlefield; he had no desire to experience the Glory Angel's Dragon Rider Energy Blade.
"I guess so. Optimus Prime was surrounded by a large number of flying blades. When I left, he was no longer resisting."
Megatron paused for a moment.
He attacked Optimus Prime because he felt the battle was over and eliminating his most trusted confidant was the right thing to do.
But as it turns out, his choice was a terrible mistake.
The Fallen looked at the cowering Starscream and said, "You mean the only leader is dead?"
"Yes, Master, he's dead!"
"Where is that boy? Where is he?"
Red Spider stepped forward again and said, "We're right here under our watch. If the master needs us, we can get him immediately!"
"Without the threat of the leader, I am invincible! Capture that boy, I want his brain!"
Three Decepticon fighters flew out from the ruins of Callisto.
Sam, who was still struggling on Earth at that moment, had no idea that his life was already on a countdown.
Liu Guangzi stepped freely on the limbless Optimus Prime, while Yu Rhein inside looked at this special Cybertronian.
"This thing is much rarer than the previous one. If I give it to Zhao Wanyang, she'll definitely be able to find the time to upgrade my Gundam. Yay!"
Before Yulein could even feel too happy, it suddenly received a high-energy threat warning.
Before she could complain to Zhang Xun, a huge light came from below the Executor.
This is a nuclear attack launched from a United States submarine.
Unlike many movie plots, launching a nuclear missile is not like that at all. Often, even the submarine captain is unaware that his actions are launching a nuclear missile.
Due to differences in underwater communication, the Executor's signal was interfered with and did not achieve the expected results underwater.
However, radio and other communication methods cannot be used underwater, so the United States used the simplest method: laying power lines.
This doesn't mean running a telephone line to a nuclear submarine, but rather deploying particle emission devices on the seabed, using passive receiving devices to transmit extremely simple information.
It was this simple combat coordination device that enabled the United States to send the order for a nuclear attack to the nuclear submarine.
The intense light caused the Executor to tilt. Had the radar system not detected the nuclear material carried by the missile the moment it left the sea, and had Tianwen taken over the warship and forcibly activated its shields according to emergency orders, this tactical nuclear missile would have been enough to give the Executor a run for its money.
However, the underwater attack was just a smokescreen. As the Executor tilted, multiple hypersonic orbital attacks appeared above it in outer space.
Immediately following, the defense and interception system on the upper deck of the Executor quickly deployed and began interception.
Some of the dazzling defensive beams created a very noticeable pillar of light in the sky.
Multiple orbital nuclear missiles were intercepted by penetrating atomization technology; these already deployed space-based weapons could not be enhanced with additional coating technology.
Even with the Executor's full-scale interception, the defense system, which had already become a sieve, was simply unable to stop all attacks.
At that moment, a gravitational beam struck one of the nuclear bombs directly.
This was not a traction-type gravitational field, but rather a hard repulsive field, while the Executor's engine emitted a dazzling light.
The nuclear bomb hit by the repulsive field was detonated instantly, and the nuclear shockwave from the mid-air explosion was thrown behind the Executor the moment it was released.
Such supersonic navigation of a 19-kilometer-long spaceship within a planet is something only a super artificial intelligence like Tianwen can accomplish.
If we were to use a certain behavior as an analogy, it would be roughly equivalent to an ordinary person dodging a heavy truck traveling at 120 kilometers per hour from a distance of three meters.
This is not to say that Zhang Xun and his team are bad, but rather that the biological limits are there for them to consider.
At 120 kilometers per hour, it only takes 0.09 seconds to cover a distance of 3 meters. Even a blink of an eye takes 0.1 seconds.
This gives ordinary people time to react, while also allowing them to keep at least 1.5 meters away. Even if Astartes came, they would have to hit it first.
Astartes are fast in reaction and movement, but that doesn't mean they can teleport. Even the Grey Knights need time to cast their skills!
Under these conditions, if an ordinary person could dodge, the bomb would never catch up to him, and the Superman Club would soon have a new member.
Following the two nuclear explosions, the Executor appeared in the distance of the battlefield, billowing smoke.
The shield system was taken offline again, the lower deck armor showed signs of melting, and multiple temporary sealing openings showed signs of internal melting. The engine output had been reduced to a minimum due to overload operation in the low-altitude atmosphere.
Although the second nuclear bomb did not directly hit the Executor, the heat still caused overheating of the ship's hull (the shields were deactivated due to overload below).
Other issues with the ship's hull are still under self-inspection, but the worst off for Zhang Xun's side is Yulein.
Originally intended to gain favors, the Freestream was nearly destroyed due to a low-altitude, high-speed maneuver.
If it weren't for Macross's OTM high overload technology, Yuri might have lost his life on the ship just now.
That's a speed that can reach ten kilometers away in just over a second. Under normal circumstances, the overload generated by light would be 1,041 G.
Humans' short-term overload limit is 15G. Even if Yulein is enhanced to withstand 23G for a long time, it is only because Tianwen's calculations are accurate that it was not turned into soy milk by more than 1,000G.
However, this high-speed instantaneous overload still turned the Flowing Light Freedom directly into Flowing Light Scrap Metal.
Enraged, Yurain used her lightsaber to cut open the cockpit lock, which was impossible to open due to the complete destruction of the mech, and angrily leaned out to give Tianwen a thorough and unfiltered greeting.
Of course, Tianwen, who has no parents, has fewer blind spots, so normal greetings won't break his defenses at all.
However, Tianwen will not give any answer now, because that would only make Yulein even thirstier.
