Chapter 81 * Optimus Prime Obtains His Unique Weapon
As they stepped off the land bridge, the first thing they saw was a mountain, a mountain full of huge rocks, and the coordinates of the sacred object pointed to that mountain.
Looks like I'll have to move some stones?
Almost everyone was mobilized for this mission, including ambulances and humans. After confirming that there were no Decepticons around, they began to try to pinpoint the coordinates of the artifact.
For example, burying it a few meters deep. The main thing is, if it's buried too deep, it might be necessary to contact Fuller agents to arrange for a crane to move the mountain.
"The relic must be incredibly hard, right?" Rosa pondered. If it's too difficult to move, why not try using a black hole to impede the process and blast it away? That would save on gunpowder.
“Logically speaking, yes, especially the container holding the sacred object,” Optimus Prime explained to Rosa, and Arcee could see what Rosa was thinking.
"You want to blow it up?"
“Yes, but considering that the Decepticons might detect the black hole, let’s forget about it…” Rosa said, transforming her claws.
"Let's get started digging."
The machines nodded in agreement, but how to dig became another problem. It seemed they would still need to order some drill bits and such from Agent Fuller, and then they saw...
Rosa went straight over and started to move the larger rocks, the kind that you could grab by one corner and move as tall as Optimus Prime. She used her claws to pry at the smaller ones and make them roll away.
Smokescreen watched as Rosa moved such a large rock while carrying it, her face filled with astonishment.
No, how could someone who looks so delicate move such a large rock? Yan Mu looked around, and everyone seemed to be acting very normally, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.
*Smokescreen attempts to ponder whether this is reasonable.
*Smokescreen thinks this seems unreasonable.
Smokescreen thinks this might be his own problem.
In conclusion, the group found a sword hilt under a large rock, and according to the location information, this seemed to be the sacred relic.
"Is that the Star Sword?" Smokescreen recognized it first. "It's said to be a legendary weapon forged by Sai Tianjiao... at least that's what the legends say."
The sword hilt was driven deep into the massive rock. Smokescreen even tried to pull it out, but the relic wouldn't budge. Finally, Optimus Prime stepped forward and grasped the hilt, which caused a slight change.
As Optimus Prime attempted to pull out the "Sword in the Stone," the hilt seemed to receive a signal, continuously emitting a blue light, and the Starsword embedded in the stone began to loosen.
Finally, Optimus Prime pulled out a greatsword that emitted a blue light—the Starsword.
Optimus Prime obtains a special weapon.
The Autobots happily returned to their base. The Decepticons probably didn't know that the relic had been taken. Rosa even kindly suggested that she go and put the stone back in its place.
"The Decepticons probably don't know that the artifact has been taken. So why don't we bury it a little and trip them up?"
Rosa's face, hidden behind her armor visor, revealed a somewhat wicked smile. "Let them dig around in the ground for a while, and play by themselves."
"Hahaha!" Smokescreen burst into laughter, saying, "Well said! Let the tiger cubs play by themselves."
Seemingly sensing the meaning behind Optimus Prime's expression, Rosa added that she could do it herself. Optimus Prime looked at her and nodded helplessly. Rosa, followed by Bumblebee, went ahead to bury some of the rocks that had been thrown away.
Smokescreen shouted to Optimus Prime, "I'm going too," and then went to help.
Arcee and Optimus Prime watched helplessly as the young people played their "prank," and the ambulance reported to the inside that they would be returning to base a little later.
Finally, after watching them cover up the marks of their digging, and even Rosa carrying some large rocks back for them to move slowly, everyone happily returned to base.
Smokescreen also changed Rosa's opinion of her somewhat. Recalling the scene of Rosa committing suicide, it must have been a dream or hallucination caused by her own fall.
But it's so strange, why would I have such a hallucination?
The smokescreen was thinking, but it couldn't figure it out, so it gave up thinking.
Then everyone went back to base to celebrate. Perhaps his behavior was a bit reckless this time and he didn't follow the procedures completely, but at least he learned to outsmart the enemy and still received Optimus Prime's praise.
By the way, everyone welcomes the official addition of Smokescreen. Perhaps it's not as grand as a formal elite guard graduation ceremony, but at least everyone is happy... except for the partition.
He still felt somewhat disconnected from the smokescreen, partly because he was no longer fit for combat, and partly because he was a newcomer...
"Well done... rookie..." The partition, leaning against the wall, limped to the entrance of the base's main hall. Looking at the armor hanging beside him, he appeared even more dejected....
"Don't worry! Partition! He's no match for you!" Meiqi noticed Partition's dejected expression and ran over to comfort him.
The partition only made him look more pathetic as he leaned against the wall and turned to leave the hall entrance...
"I guarantee that once your leg is fully healed, they'll soon find out who's the real expert!" The partition didn't respond, but simply continued limping deeper into the corridor...
"A partition?... " Meiqi forced a smile, but could only watch the partition slowly move away, her two little buns on her head seemed to droop down... like an abandoned little animal.
Everyone noticed something. Meiqi, who had been standing there dejectedly watching the figure behind the partition, suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She had a flash of inspiration and even stopped drooping her two buns on her head.
She ran to the small platform, beckoned Yanmu over, and then asked him to lower his head a little, as if she had some kind of plan.
After saying something to Yanmu, Yanmu gave Meiqi a thumbs-up with a look of surprise, and then Meiqi ran over to Jack and Arcee.
"Jack, could you give me a ride tomorrow morning?"
“Ask Arcee,” Jack said. Meiqi looked at Arcee again, and Arcee seemed to have figured something out. Meiqi definitely had another idea.
It's probably a good idea, though, because given her relationship with the partition, she might actually be able to come up with a way to cheer him up.
“Okay.” Meiqi cheered when she heard Arcee’s answer.
"Meiqi, what idea did you come up with?" Raffi asked, and Meiqi covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Of course, it's a secret~ You'll see tomorrow, the partition will definitely bounce back!"
Just then, the Starsword in Optimus Prime's hand suddenly emitted a bright light. He raised the sword in confusion, looking at the blade, and then his optical mirror also emitted a brighter fluorescent blue light than before.
However, his expression was somewhat dazed, and the ambulance driver quickly called out to Optimus Prime, "Optimus Prime! Talk to me! Optimus Prime!"
"I've received a message." Everyone gathered around, looking at him nervously. They all knew that this message was anything but simple.
"Whose message is this?" The ambulance patiently waited for Optimus Prime's answer. Optimus Prime then seemed to see something, and his expression turned somewhat shocked.
"It's Master Titanium." Optimus Prime became serious as if he had seen something. After a while, the light on the Star Sword finally faded, and Optimus Prime almost collapsed. Fortunately, the ambulance arrived and caught him.
"Optimus Prime, relax," the ambulance said, and Optimus Prime slowly stood up.
"We must find the last four Iron Fortress relics and the ultimate key at all costs."
