Transformers: Leader's Proof - Fragile, but Hard to Kill

Chapter 250: How come this official history is written like an unofficial history?

"brush--"

A blue-green light appeared, and the land bridge opened. The bounty hunter then prepared to leave with the unconscious Nightshade.

Iron Fist felt a pang of pity seeing Nightshade in handcuffs, but after seeing Nightshade's wanted poster, he gave up pleading for her.

She had to take responsibility for her mistakes, and she was an iron-fisted person who had thoroughly studied all Cybertronian laws and regulations, knowing that she could not let her friend make the same mistake again.

So I could only say goodbye to them with tears in my eyes, but I don't know why...

Before leaving, the bounty hunter kept staring at Rosa, as if he was thinking or recalling something.

But Lieutenant Bumblebee didn't see it that way. The other man's gaze was so intense that Bumblebee couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward and stood between his girlfriend and the bounty hunter.

Although the expression on his visor didn't reveal any anger, he just smiled at him with narrowed eyes, but the bounty hunter inexplicably felt a sense of intimidation.

It's as if it's saying: If you look at my girlfriend again, I'll dig your glasses out...

The bounty hunter could only take Nightshade across the land bridge to his spaceship first, and then bring him back to claim the reward.

Don't get me wrong, he just felt that Rosa looked familiar, not because he had seen her statue in the square, but because he felt like he had seen her somewhere else.

I just couldn't remember for the moment, so I had no choice but to take Nightshade back to the spaceship first.

Shortly after returning to the spaceship, Nightshade also woke up. The moment she woke up, she saw a spherical cage formed by energy.

If I had to describe it, it's like a hamster inside a transparent plastic ball, except the ball is fixed in place.

Meanwhile, the bounty hunter who couldn't speak was fiddling with something on the console, seemingly searching for keywords in the bounty list.

"You know how to spell my name, right?" Nightshade crossed her arms and looked at her, her eyes filled with displeasure. She assumed the other woman was searching for her bounty poster to confirm.

The bounty hunter merely glanced back at her before continuing to operate something on the control panel, pausing now and then to think before continuing his search.

Suddenly, he seemed to finally remember why that female robot looked so familiar, because he finally found a Decepticon wanted poster in the corner, and it was a wanted poster issued during the war.

The keyword is: No. 24.

However, since it was an Autobot wanted poster issued during wartime, it can only mean that the person in question is a genuine Autobot.

Thank goodness...

He breathed a sigh of relief. He only remembered seeing her on some wanted poster and subconsciously thought she was a Decepticon. But since she was wanted by the Decepticons, then it was fine.

With this mindset in mind, he opened the folder and looked at its contents, mainly wanting to see just how upright this former member of the leader's guard really was and what her achievements were.

After all, even the area beneath the statue of her in the square has a blank page about her resume, doesn't it?

Then, his posture while reading the documents changed from lying on the control panel to straightening up as he read.

He even thought he was seeing things when he saw the numbers, or that it was just some kind of unofficial history...

Saying they were very strong is one thing, but what's with the claim that they killed over a thousand Decepticons in one night at the Decepticon Recruit Training Camp 24? And what's with the claim that they wiped out half the enemy forces at a base the size of Dark Peak?

This unofficial history is too far-fetched!

The more he looked, the more he leaned back, and even Nightshade behind him looked at the contents with a puzzled expression.

This unofficial history is too far-fetched!

But then they discovered a video attached to the folder...

With a question in mind, he clicked on the video...

The female drone's twisted neck, from which countless extensions of her body emanated, including the final forensic documents that confirmed the video was not a composite....

God, why is my body so cold?

In that instant, they seemed to suddenly realize that they had all briefly encountered the AllSpark before.

Both machines saw it. They exchanged a glance and saw fear and relief in each other's optical lenses—relief that they hadn't been killed.

The bounty hunter's hand was almost blurring out of focus as he pressed the delete key, deleting all file records and travel history.

This is to prove that they have never been to Earth and know nothing about it.

He had originally planned to discuss this with Ye Mei, and turned to her with some hesitation, but received Ye Mei's response first.

“I think you should say that you found me in a star system very close to Cybertron…” Nightshade hesitated, watching as the other person turned to look at her…

"We've never been to Earth, have we?"

After seeing off Nightshade, there's nothing much to do now. Continue working on the remaining Rosa option. In the end, all that's needed is to modify the last part of the land bridge. No additional frame shell is required, so it will be faster.

The downside is that you can't use the land bridge, so you can only go out when you're free of missions.

Good news, there are no missions right now. Rosa carried a bunch of parts and tools over to prepare for modifications.

Bad news: as soon as they opened the casing, Blackface intercepted an encrypted message, and it was very old, like something the Decepticons would use during wartime.

What else can we do? We'll wait until they get back.

The signal originated from a small island called England. Yes, this was very exciting for the Blackface, because he had seen films about England in Russell's movies.

Brave knights and dashing spies—it all happens there.

So this time, Bumblebee and Blackface went together, because Blackface seemed very interested.

Rosa planned to repair her own armor first, and deal with the modifications later when they returned, in case they ran into any trouble and couldn't come back.

But... Bumblebee seems very confident that he can solve the problem, although the modification is actually quite fast, right?

Then Bumblebee arranged for Rosa to continue the modifications. He and Blackface went out, promising to contact him if there were any problems. Before leaving, he took a big sip of Rosa's lips.

The stern-faced man remained silent for a few seconds, leaving his words about not coming home for dinner in the gas tank. He still needed to replenish his energy; after all, dog food couldn't replace a meal.

So they began their enjoyable capture operation, while Rosa obediently upgraded the land bridge. After it was finished and they were about to test it, Rosa seemed to have thought of something.

Why not just put the armor through as well? What if we need help in the future?

She glanced at the armor, which wasn't fully repaired yet; several parts still needed fixing, leaving some gaps...

These aren't really problems, the only issue is that, well, that steel lock that's a bit "green onion-shaped" in his design. He thinks that since Bumblebee and Blackface both went to a place related to knights, England...

Rosa needed some decorations before she went, so he found a piece of black cloth for her to wear as a cape, to make her look cool...

Rosa wanted to refuse, but then she saw the artist's hat that Steel Lock had somehow found, the various "statues" made of different things that filled the hall, and Steel Lock's "bright and shrewd" gaze—

Forget it, I'll just wear it. On the bright side, he didn't cause any damage, did he?

But to Rosa's surprise, what she saw as soon as she got there was...

Uh, Bumblebee was roasted red-hot by a giant Decepticon that looked like a lizard breathing fire.

?

Charcoal-grilled honey... No, that's my boyfriend!
