Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 1500 62. Assassination

The Mechanicus sent divine creations to join the battlefield on earth, and its main tactical purpose was to contain the Mechanic Ghidorah.

That monster is the favorite war creation of Quintessa, the Mechanics Goddess of Cybertron.

It is ferocious, powerful, and has an immortal body in various senses. It is not afraid of siege at all, and it can protect Quintessa's safety well under any circumstances.

When Icarus and the commander of the Decepticons, Jing Potian, cooperated temporarily and decided to adopt the method of "assassination" to end the threat of Cybertron to the earth, this mechanical monster was an unavoidable operational difficulty.

But the two sides eventually reached an agreement.

It will be Galvatron who will act to lure Ghidorah the Mech to Earth if necessary.

God's Creation appeared to entangle the monster, buying enough time for the assassins of Mechanicus to complete the fatal blow to Quintasha, the lone Cybertron Mechanic Goddess.

The plan went well.

After Mechanic Ghidorah fell to the earth, the assassins of Mechanicus immediately set off to the ruins of Cybertron to carry out assassination operations.

According to the data information disclosed in Galvatron's thinking core, Quintasha uses Cybertron's Earth Center Temple to monitor every corner of the entire planetary ruins.

Any data signal that does not belong to her side is close to Cybertron, and she will be discovered immediately.

Therefore, this assassination operation can only be carried out by a robot equipped with a Decepticon analog data signal.

This is also the current optimal solution when the world's top heroes are all heading to the stars to block the attack of the galaxy's evil forces and the evil Lanterns.

"bang"

In orbit around the earth, on the edge of the ruined world of Cybertron, the figures of several robots emerged among the stars.

Under the operation of the lowest frequency of the propeller, it quietly approached this messy steel world.

Headed by the Apologists of the Adeptus Mechanicus, Scourge.

It carried a huge jet flight device on its back, and was the first to approach the central continent of the world of Cybertron, which was shattered from the center of the earth.

In the communication encrypted by Icarus himself, it communicated with the companions following it once, and then lifted its own signal shielding.

When entering the data monitoring covering the entire Cybertron star, the temporarily installed Decepticon camouflage signal in the body of the Scourge took effect.

It can clearly feel that a layer of electromagnetic wave-like signal is passing across its body.

But it didn't stop.

The monitoring scan was like a routine. After no abnormalities were found, no more attention was paid to natural disasters, probably because all of Kuntasha's attention at this time was attracted to the earth battlefield.

The natural disaster fell to the ground, and it cautiously stayed in place for several minutes.

The surroundings were peaceful, it turned on the detection module, and scanned the entire broken world's central land for several weeks, but found no ambush robots.

Not even an active data signal!

Sure enough, as Jing Potian said, after the last batch of Decepticons and giant monsters were sent to the earth, there was not even a single active mechanical life in the ruins of Cybertron.

In this lonely world that has long since died, Quintassa is the only one left.

"Okay, let's all come here."

The Scourge gave the signal, and soon members of its assassination squad fell beside it.

Headed by Horus, the silent mechanical warrior.

In the past few years, after several modifications of its body structure by the Mechanicus, Horus's current body shape is quite different from its previous form.

Its body is more slender and more streamlined, its thick outer armor is shaped like armor, and its head looks like a full-covered knight's battle helmet.

As the information collector of both eyes, it was replaced with a more powerful V-shaped mechanical eye.

While retaining the strength parameters, its speed and reaction parameters have been greatly improved. The warhammer weapon used before was also replaced by a more flexible mechanical sword, which was worn behind it.

Behind it, there are all the members of the former S.H.I.E.L.D. mechanical combat team.

All of them are Cybertron beings born on Earth, ghosts, noises, and Miss Laura in battle skirts.

Beside the mechanical team, are the digital Autobots.

Bumblebee, Jazz, Over the Mountain, Arcee and Ambulance.

Finally, there are two smaller high-level omnics.

The mechanical sages Adam and Hope, these two guys have strange shapes. They still appear in human form, but they each carry a long iron box behind them, and they don't know what is inside.

All in all, a standard crisis response team.

Assault fighters, supporters, scout-assassin droids, and a healer.

"I thought Ms. Icarus would come too."

The noise that always likes to chatter is holding two ray guns while looking around vigilantly. It is a little lacking in confidence and a little nervous.

it said softly:

"Won't that powerful lady come forward for such a big matter? If she is here, the job will be sure."

"Watch your tone, Autobot!"

Wearing white ceremonial armor, Adam with an indifferent face glanced at the noise, and said:

"The lady is doing another important job, no less important than our venture, and even more important at a strategic level."

"The data given by Galvatian cannot be fully believed."

Miss Hope, who was beside Adam, bent down and picked up a corroded emblem from the ground covered with mechanical wreckage.

She looked at the emblem of unknown meaning in her hand, and whispered:

"In the code of conduct of the Mechanicus, any action must have a backup plan. Once our assassination fails and the situation becomes more unmanageable, the lady will come forward and turn the tide."

"Ha, so we are the cannon fodder sent to step on mines?"

The noise snorted in dissatisfaction. This Dupont Autobot has inherited the chattering attributes of his mechanical knight.

It raised the gun in its hand rather dissatisfied, and then activated the enhanced detection system, spreading its excellent radar signal.

He still wanted to say something, but was pushed hard by the ghost behind him.

Apparently his companions thought him too talkative and out of character.

"Ms. Icarus' vigilance is warranted."

Holding the mechanical battle sword, Laura, who loaded a special mechanical module on the back, looked at the silent world of the ruins of Cybertron with curious eyes, and said to her slightly dissatisfied companion:

"The information in Galvatron's database may not be true either. I mean, the Decepticon may indeed have the sincerity to cooperate, but what if it is also deceived by Quintasha's disguise?"

Laura blinked her beautiful eyes, and said:

"What if Kuntasha is not a mechanical pseudo-god who is not good at fighting?"

"Even if our entire army is wiped out, Ms. Icarus will still be able to obtain first-hand key information to formulate a more effective plan."

"Before departure, our thinking data has been backed up in the Mechanical Temple..."

Laura shrugged, the temporarily loaded, heavy mechanical module behind her made her a little uncomfortable.

she says:

"Anyway, in the worst case, we will not die. We are the best tool people at this moment. You should accept this. This is our role in this war."

The members of the mechanical team followed the natural disasters and headed towards the Temple of the Earth, while discussing in full swing.

In this world that has already died due to war, no one will suddenly jump out to frighten them.

But robots also have emotions of their own.

Walking in the ruins of a world, looking at those performance art sculptures piled up in weird shapes on the side of the road, composed entirely of robot remains, is like the feeling of human beings when they see a terrifying Jingguan composed of human heads.

Their mechanical souls also feel tingling.

So this kind of discussion, in addition to small talk, also has an element of resistance to fear.

On the other hand, looking at the real Cybertronians, their expressions are much sadder.

All Cybertronians, including Bumblebee, fled their homeland at the end of the Cybertron Civil War.

They have seen with their own eyes how their hometown fell apart in the desperate and frantic death struggle between the two sides.

As the last batch of Autobot fighters to evacuate from Cybertron, Bumblebee even saw the destruction scene of his world bursting from the core in the escape pod.

The psychological shadow caused by that scene on this optimistic little robot has not been eliminated until now.

And the Cybertronians, including Bumblebee and Jazz, who have been staying on Earth, tried so stubbornly to protect this human world, probably because of the guilt they felt after witnessing the destruction of their hometown.

My own world has been destroyed, and at that last moment, I failed to take any useful actions other than fleeing.

They do not want to see the same thing happen again on Earth.

The experience of returning from the dead always fills the survivors with a heavy sense of mission.

And witnessing the death of a world breaks the heart of a true warrior, setting him on a path of paranoid protection.

Even Scourge, the new individual formed by the fusion of the minds of Optimus Prime and Shockwave, became unusually silent after setting foot on the ruins of his hometown in his memory.

It just buried its head towards the target location, and every step it took was very steady.

But just looking at the black robot's back, one could feel a passive rage burning in its icy engine.

This silence also affected the Cybertronians behind the Scourge.

The hornet's combat mask was turned on at this time, and Jazz kept turning the wheel of the camera gun in his hand, flying over the mountain with a cold face, and the ambulance lowered its head without saying anything.

But this kind healer also holds a weapon in his hand, representing its mood at this time.

On the devastated land of their homeland, the exiles marched towards the false god with the same hatred.

They failed to save their world, but they could not allow the wreckage of their own world to sink into a more miserable future.

"just in front!"

On a cliff, Calamity was lying on the edge, looking at the rift that was flowing with light below. This rift was caused by the tearing of the planet, and went straight into the core of this dilapidated metal world.

The eyesight of the robots is generally very good, and between the fine-tuning of the focus of their respective mechanical eyes, they can easily capture the temple in the center of the earth that exists in the dancing light arc.

It was a building that didn't match the mechanical style of the Cybertronians, and it was full of a sense of religious ceremony.

"Target locked! Ready to go to war!"

The weapon slot on Scourge's waist bounced open, and two heavy-duty hand cannons with turbo rotation fell into its hands, and the robots behind them also clenched their weapons.

"I'll make the way!"

Among the robots, apart from natural disasters, the armed module loaded on the back of the second largest ambulance opened outwards, and three black high-compression energy missiles popped out.

At the moment when the Scourge's finger was swiped downward, the black missile specially ordered by Mechanicus for this assassination operation flew out of the weapon bay behind the ambulance body with a whistling sound.

It was like three arrows leaving the string, piercing towards the temple in the center of the earth.

"boom"

The terrifying big bang shone like the sun in the cracks in the ruined world, and the entire temple that went deep into the ground collapsed under the impact of high-concentration energy.

The mechanical assassins who followed the natural disaster into the crack could even clearly hear Quintessa's sharp curse.

"Kill it!"

The robots who fell to the ground immediately attacked.

Taking advantage of its fast speed, Noise turned into a taxi form, ran across the ruined walls of the explosion, and transformed into a robot when it approached Quintasha who climbed up from the ruins.

"bang, bang"

With two low-pitched gunshots, the blue matrix on the surface of Kuntasha's body jumped up like water waves, encountering an unexpected surprise attack, which made the proud mechanical goddess a little crazy for a while.

She realized at once that her arrangements had gone fatally wrong.

How did these robot assassins infiltrate the ruins?

Ah!

Galva!

That bastard actually betrayed her at this moment!

"Unforgivable!!!"

Kuntasha propped up her energy shield, and flew into the sky against the crazy shooting of the robots and the energy explosion around her.

According to Jing Potian, this mechanical goddess knows how to play tricks and transform machines.

But combat is poor.

She is used to driving others to fight, and has been avoiding conflicts from breaking out around her.

Looking at it now, this statement should be true.

Facing the thousands of miles of attack by robot assassins, Quintasha displayed an extremely clumsy defensive posture while being angry.

She didn't dodge either, so she used the energy shield to attack hard.

The electronic tentacles behind her and above her head are flying, and the mechanical eyes are bursting with chaotic data streams, just like Medusa in mythology.

"boom"

Kuntasha raised her hands, and dazzling lightning shot out from her fingertips, rushing towards the nearest scout warrior Specter.

Seeing that the latter was about to be hit by the dangerous lightning, Noise rushed forward, cursing obscenities, and pushed Specter away.

"boom"

The weird electric arc hit the noise, like some kind of dangerous cracking light beam, splitting the noise's body in an instant.

Three hands and feet were thrown flying, while Noise was beaten into the ruins behind the temple amidst screams of pain.

"I am the master of machines!"

The data optical fiber behind Quintasha's head was fluttering. Amid the sound of constant explosions and the firepower of the temple collapsing, she pointed her finger at the robot assassins rushing towards her in front of her eyes.

"whoosh"

The dazzling arc of strange light shot out again, but this time it failed to decompose a certain hapless robot.

"Leave it to us!"

Adam and Hope, the mechanical sages of Mechanicus, swooped down and opened the metal box behind them in the air. They swung two warhammers with purple light and landed on both sides of the assassins.

The magic engines on the omnic sages convert energy into pure magic, allowing them to use their mechanical bodies to manipulate the two dread hammers that were captured before the monsters invaded.

The purple lightning shaped by magic danced wildly in the air like a silver snake, intercepting the arc thrown by Kuntasha, and the two kinds of lightning with completely different attributes collided in the air and disappeared.

"Bold! Rebel!"

Quintasha backed away screaming.

But Scourge and Horus rushed forward from left to right, one person's sword swept and broke Quintasa's energy, and the other person's sword cut and cut off Quintasha's humanoid body.

"bang"

Kuntasha's upper body hit the ground of the temple, black engine oil flowed out from her wound, and those broken wires continued to outline dancing sparks.

Before she could stand up, Bumblebee flew up and stepped on the remnant of the mechanical false god.

It raised its left hand, and its mechanical face with a visor was expressionless.

The large-caliber energy cannon on the yellow robot arm spun and smashed Kuntasha's remnant body with one shot.

The deformed head of the mechanical pseudo-god flew out in the explosion, and was chopped apart in the air by Laura's sword.

"Snapped"

Those sparks splashed and fell on the ground casually, causing the entire temple to return to the eerie silence from the hail of bullets just now.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.

In the end, their eyes all fell on the severed Quintasha's head.

There is a hint of surprise and disbelief in the eyes of all robots...

Although Galvatron has been emphasizing that Quintasha's combat ability is very bad, she is also a mechanical god who can transform the life of Cybertron from life form.

It's really that simple to assassinate the mighty Quintessa...

That's it?
