The plunder of the heavens begins with the Spirit Cage.

The cracking sounds of bones shattering and the mournful cries of giant beasts instantly drowned out the clamor of the battlefield.

Its thick forelimbs swept across continuously, like an out-of-control pile driver. Wherever it passed, whether it was Pandora's creatures or the Devouring Beasts blocking its way, they were all turned into layers of blood mist.

They forcefully smashed a crimson path of death through the stagnant, bloody meat grinder.

Almost simultaneously, a completely different sonic whistling sound swept in.

The source of the sound was a bizarre, bloated biomass mana flower, resembling a giant tumor.

It swayed its body, and countless pores on its surface opened and closed, releasing visible ripples of distorted air.

Wherever the sound waves swept, countless birds flying at low altitudes lost their sense of direction and crashed around wildly.

The Pandora horde's ground charge formation was visibly disrupted, slowed down, and trampled.

On the contrary, the Devouring Beasts of the Crimson Faction gleamed with ferocity, their movements became even more ferocious and coordinated, and their injuries were slowly healed by the music.

"Look!" Ironhide stubbed out his cigar on his arm armor. "The target is right here!"

The Autobots exchanged glances.

"Then..." Bumblebee gave the order with a cannon shot and a sword strike, "Autobots, move out—!!"

"Crush them!"

With a slightly childish and fiercely competitive roar, Bumblebee's body swiftly transformed into a hovercraft amidst the clanging sounds of mechanical transformation, and it was the first to fly out.

The heavy armored vehicle, with its jagged, angular iron body, roared to life with a deafening roar as its tires lifted off the ground and a trail of eerie blue ion flames shot out, all of which rushed toward the lord who was wreaking havoc in the Emerald Line!

"Hehehe, I happen to have some gadgets with me. I'll let it experience what a mechanical parasite is like!"

Jazz grinned wickedly and transformed into a hovercar covered in weapons, skillfully dodging the falling debris and energy beams, and followed closely behind.

Instead, the ambulance remained in place after unlocking its new form.

With a clattering sound, the rear compartment of the armored vehicle and medical vehicle transformed into a massive turret, its energy-charging light shining in front of the thick muzzle, unleashing a rapid-fire barrage at the enormous Devouring Beast in the center.

With the most difficult central battlefield seized first, the behemoths had no choice but to target the source of the disturbance in the rear!

"Rhinoceros! Yellow Leopard! Charge with me!"

Chapter 141 Heavenly Fire

"Flying arrows, aerial cover, tear a path!" Qingtian Sheng roared, his massive metal ape arm slamming into his chest with a dull metallic echo.

He did not transform, but maintained his mighty King Kong form, taking heavy steps to launch his charge from the weakest point on the edge of the battlefield.

Led by a flying arrow, the rhinoceros warrior let out a deep roar, and its massive metal rhinoceros body pounded the ground with its four hooves, carving a path forward on the battlefield.

Yellow Leopard transformed into a swift yellow lightning bolt, deftly eliminating the approaching Devouring Beasts between the figures of Sky Saint and Rhino Warrior.

As the behemoths charged toward their target location, they were immediately met with a frenzied counterattack from the densely guarded Devouring Beasts surrounding them!

The rhinoceros warrior lowered its head and used its huge horns to knock over several of them, its heavy iron hooves trampling them over.

The massive metal fist of the Sky-Supporting Saint, carrying immense force, crashed down, sending several charging beasts flying.

Yellow Leopard used its speed to weave through the herd, its sharp metal claws tearing at the joints and weak points of the Devouring Beasts.

The torrent of steel crashed into the crimson flesh, and the Guardian Devouring Beasts, with their ability to constantly repair themselves, quickly entangled the behemoths.

Even if several people of similar size used an ion sword to slice through a large area, it would be difficult to advance past the layers of flesh and blood defenses.

At this moment, the advantage of air power becomes apparent.

The flying arrow warrior dodged the mind-controlled flock of birds, and after a clear eagle cry, a burst of fiery breath shot out from its mouth!

This is not an ordinary flame, but a high-temperature plasma flame generated by its own energy source.

The flames raged around the Mana tumor, instantly covering a large area of ​​its body. The scorching sound and the muffled sound of biological tissue bursting exploded at the same time!

The tough biomass shells rapidly char, carbonize, and crack under extremely high temperatures, turning into foul-smelling smoke that rises into the air.

"Ugh—!!!" The tumor let out a sharp, painful cry.

The swaying motions became chaotic and painful. The huge resonant cavities that constantly opened and closed, releasing sound waves, twisted and closed under the scorching flames, and the released sonic roars instantly became fragmented.

The therapeutic effects that were originally achieved through a specific frequency were also interrupted.

The Devouring Beasts guarding the giants below, who were frantically attacking them, visibly slowed down for a moment.

The violent red light in their eyes flickered erratically, and the healing speed of the wounds torn by the ion sword on their bodies visibly slowed down!

The Arrow Warrior's fiery breath forced Mana's tumor to spew out pale green bromine mist to block most of the physical attacks.

It then conjured countless tentacles with sharp blades and struck at the culprit.

"A good opportunity!" Below, with the pressure suddenly reduced, Optimus Prime once again transformed into his gorilla form.

The enormous metal fist smashed through the horde of Devouring Beasts blocking their path. "Rhinoceros! Yellow Leopard! Now! Charge through!"

The excruciating Mana sarcoma launched a violent counterattack like an enraged serpent, its mental fluctuations locking onto the behemoths like tangible waves.

However, mechanical life forms and biological life forms are still very different.

The giants cut off the source of the sound the moment they receive a specific frequency, and can even send a specific audio signal back at the enemy to cancel it out.

The twisted mental fluctuations of Mana's sarcoma were as if they had crashed into an invisible firewall.

However, its powerlessness on a spiritual level foreshadowed its failure on a physical level.

While bromine mist can neutralize physical attacks, it cannot withstand close-quarters combat with melee weapons.

When the rampaging, sharp tentacles were torn apart by the crowd, and the behemoths shut down their sense of pain and emotions to face the tumor, its fate was already predictable.

Meanwhile, the Autobots also won the battle.

Bumblebee's ion sword pierced through the elite boss lord's spirit seed, completely melting the opponent's flesh and blood into charred black water.

Unfortunately, eliminating the two elite monsters only restored the balance of competition between the two ecosystems.

On the vast battlefield, they were but a fleeting presence. Faced with a large number of retaliatory enemies approaching, the Transformers had no choice but to retreat to the rear.

"Sigh, if only we had the mechanical worm, maybe we could use its power to burrow underground and take down the enemy's energy center."

Tiepi, who had learned some information about the ecology of Mana, couldn't help but sigh.

“That’s not necessarily true,” the flying arrow folded its wings, transforming from a peregrine falcon into a lithe human figure.

The dense armor lines in dark gold and silver-gray stunned the Transformers.

The flying arrow slightly spread the wings behind its dorsal fin, "There is another side to this world that we have never understood."

"There may be even denser biomass nests hidden underground."

If we venture in rashly, we'll become prey for those behind the scenes.

…………

In Washington, D.C., people move about under the magnificent glass dome of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.

Lu Qianwei and Irina mingled among tourists of different nationalities, their gazes sweeping across the milestones of humankind's conquest of the skies as the guide's voice rang out.

"Look this way, this is the Wright brothers' 'Flyer I,' the starting point of human powered flight..."

The white guide pointed proudly to the simple wooden and cloth-structured airplane.

Lu Qianwei walked past the legendary P-51 Mustang fighter plane with its red nose, a symbol of World War II, and then past the Bell X-1 rocket plane, which marked the beginning of the jet age (it was the first to break the sound barrier).

Stand before the massive Spirit of St. Louis monoplane—the aircraft that completed the first non-stop transatlantic flight.

Finally, he and Irina broke away from the group and paid their respects to the B-291 Flying Fortress bomber.

Why should we show respect?

That means it was this plane that dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima.

After taking a photo with the other person, Lu Qianwei suddenly had the idea of ​​using the Fire Source to give the other person life.

I'd love to interview it about its feelings in the face of a nuclear explosion.

Shaking off his wild imaginings, Lu Qianwei followed the signs and finally arrived in front of an SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft.

Its jet-black paint and sleek lines made it one of the most advanced fighter jets of the last century.

A speed of three times the speed of sound was virtually impossible to shoot down during the Cold War.

However, Lu Qianwei did not come here to see how magnificent it was. His purpose in coming here was, of course, to awaken the Transformer hidden inside the armor—Skyfire!

At his peak, Tianhuo was extremely powerful, even comparable to a super leader.

He was among the strongest of the original group of Celestial Venerables.

If it weren't for the plot-driven death in the movie, the opponent's ability to teleport using his hands would have been like giving the Autobots a remote cheat code.

If the consortium acquires this technology, it will be able to conduct short-distance teleportation within a single world without relying on stargate shuttles.

Chapter 142 Heavenly Fire 2

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was looking, Lu Qianwei threw out several small robots from the storage space that were scanning details such as the Black Hawk's shell.

Stealing a plane outright is going too far and could easily attract the attention of the authorities.

He simply had the military factory 3D print an identical one to replace it.

They found another secluded spot and had the spy spider hide with the Stargate Shuttle, while also hacking into the museum's network.

After doing all that, Lu Qianwei and Irina wandered around for a while before finding a secluded spot and returning to the Dark Fortress.

"I've found the tombs of the six Supreme Beings," Optimus Prime said heavily, holding the AllSpark.

He felt more or less regret about the departure of the Supreme One.

"They're near the Egyptian pyramids, and the Planet Harvesters are there too."

"We should not delay and should retrieve them as soon as possible."

“I know that, but let’s wait three more days,” Lu Qianwei interrupted Optimus Prime’s rashness.

The location of the pyramids is too obvious and blatant; if they want to replace them quietly, they need to make thorough preparations.

"It's not time for us to expose ourselves yet. Let's wait a bit longer. The military is already gathering information about the area around the pyramids and preparing camouflage."

Optimus Prime nodded in a deep voice: "I understand."
