[Chapter 166 Where is the Autobots’ Future Headed?]
If the Decepticons knew that someone had already listed some of the Decepticons as their trophies before they really started fighting, what would they think?
Especially when this person was a guy they didn’t know at all!
Of course, even if they knew it, it would be meaningless. As long as their goal was the stellar energy collector, they had to attack the Earth.
At the same time, in order to obtain the key to the stellar energy collector, that is, the leadership module, they had to keep collecting various clues on Earth to find that thing.
And in order to deal with the Autobots who would stop them, Megatron was an indispensable fighting force.
So David’s suggestion to General Morshower was more like an open conspiracy: So what if you knew there was a trap here? Wouldn’t you come?
What’s more, with the arrogant character of the Decepticons, they might feel that when they are determined to launch a frontal attack, the weak creatures on Earth would be powerless to stop them.
The actual situation is similar to what David guessed.
After some discussion and arrangements, the Earth side conducted some tests and confirmed that their communications were indeed monitored by the Decepticons.
Then, the information such as “Due to the frequent activities of the Decepticons on Earth recently, it is decided to completely destroy Megatron’s body.” was leaked.
As the main force in the fight against the Decepticons, the Nest Force was deployed in the preset battlefield: Egypt.
Why was Egypt chosen? Because some people would not accept setting up the battlefield in their own homes.
Egypt is so good, with such a large desert that it would not have any impact if it was bombed casually. Whether it is the Decepticons or the coalition of Earthlings and Autobots, they can let go and kill as much as they want.
Before the real war, all David had to do was to scan various weapons and equipment continuously and record the data of various weapons.
If David, before coming to this world, just gave himself the code name of the arsenal, then now he is a veritable arsenal.
I don’t know if he really has this talent, but David found that he could easily record and transform various conventional weapons that he had scanned.
After some sorting, David’s usual state was similar to before, except that his back was deformed and the machine gun protruding from his right shoulder became a six-barreled Vulcan cannon.
On the left is a missile launcher that can launch missiles with various functions.
The grenade launcher on the shoulder was cancelled and replaced with a missile launcher that can be stored in the back. David can decide which one to use according to the situation.
Unfortunately, David was unable to board the Kidd destroyer equipped with an electromagnetic gun, otherwise his arsenal would have become richer.
Feeling unsatisfied, David then wandered around to scan more weapons and equipment, trying to scan some aircraft data.
Unfortunately, he was stationed with the Autobots and the Nest Force, and the most common things seen on the Nest Force side were helicopters and transport planes, and no fighters were seen.
Scan helicopters? David was not very interested in transforming into a helicopter, and he was not interested in copying Airwolf, even if the name contained the word “wolf”.
If possible, he would like to scan the F-14 Tomcat, followed by the F-22 Raptor and F-15 Eagle, and then the A-10 attack aircraft and the Harrier fighter…
This ranking is based on the appearance rather than the actual function. After all, no matter which type of scanning transformation, the essence is still a Transformer, not copying the various capabilities of this fighter.
If it weren’t for the fact that there was no possibility for the time being, David would have wanted to scan and record the data of VF-25 Messiah, VF-27 Lucifer and even YF-29 Durandal, especially YF-29 Durandal, which he wanted to use as his fixed fighter.
After walking around and finding nothing good to scan, David returned to his resting place.
His barracks were with the Autobots, and several Autobots stopped there to rest in the form of vehicles.
Optimus Prime was discussing something with Lennox, probably discussing the upcoming battle.
For humans, if this battle could completely defeat the Decepticons, then there would undoubtedly be a period of peace, and they wouldn’t have to worry about what the Decepticons were up to all day.
In David’s opinion, without the threat of the Decepticons, it might not be a good thing for the Autobots.
Seeing Lennox leave, David noticed that Optimus Prime looked at him: “You thought of that too?”
Optimus Prime might be a little saintly and a little too idealistic, but he was definitely not a fool.
Optimus Prime was certainly aware of the hidden dangers that David could see, especially after spending a few years on Earth and coming into contact with various humans, especially a large number of human officials, he could fully guess what those people would do after there was no threat from the Decepticons.
“David, my friend, what do you think we should do?” Optimus Prime was a little tangled. He knew that some humans would do some bad things, but he could also see the good side of humans.
In his heart, he hoped to stay on Earth, hoping that the people of Earth and the Cybertrons would get along in a friendly manner.
But he also knew that there were some contradictions between the two sides, and he couldn’t think of a good solution, so he prepared to ask David.
After all, David was also a ruler, and he didn’t seem to mind the Cybertronians settling in his territory?
Maybe from David, he could learn how to better integrate the Autobots into life on Earth?
“Do you hope that Cybertronians can truly integrate into Earth?”
“Yes.”
David pondered for a few seconds and asked a question: “Can you guarantee that Cybertronians who decide to settle on Earth will truly regard themselves as Earthlings?”
“…” Optimus Prime wanted to answer, but finally chose to keep silent. He felt that he could not represent all Autobots, let alone all Cybertronians.
“Let’s not talk about the huge racial differences. When you don’t even consider yourself an Earthling, why should Earthlings regard you as real compatriots?” David raised his hand to stop what Optimus was about to say: “Don’t mention these people from the Nest Force. After long-term contact with you, they can regard you as comrades-in-arms, but most Earthlings don’t have the opportunity to contact you. They can only rely on what they see with their own eyes as their first impression.”
This first impression may be a lifetime impression.
There are billions of people on Earth, and most of them will never have direct contact with these Cybertronians in their entire lives, so naturally there will be no chance to change their first impression.
“I am willing to accept Cybertronians to live in Wintertown. There is a very important factor, that is, my territory is not big.” Wintertown now has less than 500 people at most. With such a small place, you can get to know almost everyone by strolling around every day.
Special life forms like Cybertronians quickly became acquaintances in the whole town. After spending a long time together and knowing the character of Cybertronians, they naturally would not be too resistant.
Another point is that the majority of residents in Wintertown are Azerothians. The people in that world are well-informed and they themselves have no resistance to Cybertronians.
As for the locals of Brunnia, because the number of locals has always been slow, these people will not be too entangled in those things after living for a period of time and being subtly influenced by the original residents of Wintertown.
Especially when the arrival of Cybertronians can make the people of Wintertown live a better life!
When David talked about this, Optimus Prime seemed to think of something.
“You’ve realized it, haven’t you?”
“Yes.”
After these Autobots came to Earth, they didn’t bring any convenience to the people on Earth, and they didn’t play any positive role in the development of the Earth and human life.
Everyone only saw that with the appearance of the Autobots, the Decepticons also appeared, and then they fought each other, and the Earth became a battlefield for the Cybertrons.
In this situation, who would be dissatisfied?
Now the threat of the Decepticons is still there, so the Earth officials can allow the Autobots to continue to stay on Earth. When the Decepticons are gone, what use are the Autobots?
It stands to reason that as a more civilized Cybertron, as long as they are willing to lend a hand and provide technological poverty alleviation to the Earth, these people will definitely be very happy and worship the Cybertrons as their ancestors – at least before the technology is emptied out, it will be like this.
However, Optimus Prime thinks that the Earthlings are too warlike and are unwilling to share technology.
This…
David complained crazily, and Optimus Prime’s metal face turned red, but he didn’t mean to stop.
In the end, it was the good old ambulance who helped and rescued the leader of the Autobots.
“David, maybe what you said is not wrong, but Optimus Prime’s worry is not without reason. What if we give Cybertron’s technology to humans and make Earth the next Cybertron?”
They think that Earth is such a good planet and should not be destroyed like Cybertron.
“What about the ‘Earth’ going to be destroyed?” David released holographic images from his eyes and projected the Earth: “This is the Earth a few decades ago… This is the Earth now… According to the current development of the Earth, the Earth in the future will become like this.”
The three Earth projections have visible differences: the first one is bright and vivid; the second one is gray; the third one is a yellow-brown color.
“Technology is not right or wrong, the key is how to apply it! Cybertron has a more advanced civilization, and you also know the mistakes you have made. Don’t you know how to avoid mistakes and try to help Earth find a new path?”
“But what if we give the technology to humans and they are unwilling to follow our suggestions?”
“…”
David suddenly understood why Optimus Prime was unwilling to hand over Cybertron’s technology. It seems that the leader of the Autobots wants to give all the technology to the Earthlings at once?
“Brother, are you so honest? I asked you to help the poor with technology, not to empty your family’s pockets!”
Being squeezed dry…
