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

Chapter 25 Heterogeneous Cubes?! No! Heterogeneous Solvers!

Silas stunned the people on the train, and the plane landed smoothly in the train carriage.

When they sawed through the roof of the carriage, all they saw was emptiness... no, they weren't sure if it was truly empty, because for some reason, even with the roof open, the light inside the carriage was still pitifully low.

You could only see the bottom of the sawn-open piece; the rest was complete darkness.

But they didn't think anything was wrong and continued to jump.

[Rosa, why did your call cut off?]

There was no reply, and just when they thought something was wrong, Rosa's voice rang out again after a while.

"Sorry, I ordered the wrong thing. I just finished dealing with the problem." Rosa had just swallowed what was in her mouth.

She knew, of course, that the Autobots wouldn't allow her to kill the planet's native life, especially those with independent consciousness.

But they're scoundrels, and a bunch of scoundrels who even know about the Autobots. Who knows what they'll do next?

So, after the land bridge teleportation was complete, she used projection to hide herself, and also closed the only light source, the door, covering all the light sources in the corners of the entire carriage.

She was prepared to kill all the mechanical party members who entered the shadowy area of ​​the carriage.

But she had to turn off the sound before she could do it; she couldn't make a sound or be noticed.

Silas, who was in the helicopter, sensed something was wrong. All the team members who got out of the helicopter lost contact after a series of clicking sounds, which meant that all of them had been killed.

Silas frowned, realizing there was something else below. After all, even if someone were killed by a trap, there would be some kind of scream, not this silence.

Silas looked at the sawn-open top of the carriage and down, feeling a sense of unease.

"Sir..." The pilot saw Optimus Prime running towards them in the distance. Optimus Prime had woken up and, seeing the Mech Party's helicopter parked on top of the train carriages, realized that the Mech Party was stealing nuclear weapons.

They feared Optimus Prime, and Silas ordered a retreat.

The pilot took off directly into the helicopter, but Silas grabbed a rocket launcher and blew up the railway in front of him.

Optimus Prime transformed into a truck, drove directly to the front of the train, and forced it to stop by pulling on the train with his bare hands, because there were still many humans inside.

"Sizzle... La la, click—" The train was forced to stop by Optimus Prime, preventing a major accident. Optimus Prime turned his head and saw Rosa squatting in the train car. The car was a bit small for Rosa, so she could only squat. Behind her was a guard who had fainted, a nuclear weapon, and several mechanical party members who had fallen to the ground.

Of course, there was no blood. Rosa used projection to completely cover up any bloodstains, including any blood on her own body, pretending that the mech special forces team members were still alive, as if nothing had happened. But a projection alone wouldn't stand up to close scrutiny, so... she needed to find a way to blow it up so that nothing could be seen.

Rosa first placed the guard on the ground, while Optimus Prime moved the nuclear weapons, unloading them from the vehicle to make it easier for Agent Fuller to contact official transport later.

Rosa looked up and saw Silas's helicopter about to escape, and immediately pinched the black hole.

Optimus Prime had just unloaded the nuclear weapon when he saw Rosa throw something up and it flew up in a straight line, with a long blue streak following behind it.

"Beep beep." The helicopter was hit by that thing and a small hole was punched in it. Two alarms flashed on the helicopter and then were quickly turned off.

The helicopter's system displayed an error message, showing garbled characters before going black and displaying the word "Null," followed by a hexagonal symbol with three arrows.

The symbols then disappeared, but the screen remained black; only after the black screen did messages begin to appear.

[Initializing...]

Pray.

[UwU<3]

The helicopter's systems were malfunctioning and became uncontrollable. The pilot, who had intended to parachute away, discovered that some of the machinery inside the cabin began to separate and reassemble, turning into countless hands that firmly gripped him.

The pilot was unable to leave, but Silas and the remaining one or two team members reacted quickly, unfastening their seatbelts and preparing to jump as soon as the helicopter sounded the alarm.

Silas, who had opened his parachute in mid-air, watched the helicopter plummet straight down. As it crashed, the pilot was still desperately reaching out of the window, and you could even faintly hear the pilot screaming until the helicopter exploded upon impact, at which point the screaming stopped abruptly.

"Wow..." Rosa stared blankly at her hands.

"So that's how it works." Rosa realized that the solver could not only disrupt the system but also hack into it, so she tried leaving a message while hacking into the helicopter.

It can even assimilate, but that's essentially just temporarily taking over the system and then assembling parts of the helicopter's body using its components.

Rosa was clearly not very skilled at it.

Fortunately, the helicopter crashed, so any evidence was lost.

"Don't worry, those Decepticons are tied up and can't come over to check the energy signal."

"Rosa, we..." Optimus Prime didn't have time to say anything more to Rosa before he heard a series of increasingly urgent beeps coming from the carriage next to her.

"Back off!!" Optimus Prime shouted. Rosa didn't react in time, and the carriage exploded. Fortunately, the nuclear weapon and the agent had been retrieved beforehand.

Oh, I forgot about those mechanical types. Sorry, I did it on purpose, not to avoid being discovered. Those mechanical types were already eaten by me!

The solver, if it tries to block the process with its hand while continuing the process, will explode due to instability. So it specially extends and generates a hand with very little mechanical content to squeeze a black hole, calculates the explosion time, and then cuts off the hand so that the solver can use the remaining energy to continue the process.

Then she harassed the fleeing mechanical party until the explosion, the severed hand becoming a time bomb.

To prevent those around her from being unaware that it was a time bomb, she even used a device similar to a camera that could project images and emit sound to simulate the beeping sound of a bomb.

In the end, Rosa was blasted away by the severed hand that she had placed, which was holding the black hole, and flew into a nearby pond with a huge splash.

Oh right, aside from a very small amount of machinery, the severed hand was mostly flesh and blood. The explosion was so powerful it could blow one away, making it impossible to investigate exactly what caused it. We can only blame it all on the mecha special forces.

Until now, she's been blown into the pond, conveniently cleaning up the remaining blood on her body—perfect!

"Rosa!" Optimus Prime immediately ran to the pond to check on Rosa.

The calm water, the surrounding greenery swaying gently, and then, breaking the tranquility, a familiar white mechanical hand emerges from the center of the pond.

It was Rosa's signature white hand, with black knuckles and a blue fluorescent triangle on the back. Then, she gave a thumbs-up, indicating she was alright.

Don't worry, Optimus Prime. He'll contact the others to gather here, and the ambulance will open the land bridge so we can all go back together.

As for Rosa throwing the helicopter, Optimus Prime didn't care. He understood that the world they lived in was different from what they had imagined, and that not all humans were friendly. There were also Decepticons here, just wearing human skin.

Rosa, who fell into the water, knew that robots are heavy and would sink to the bottom if they fell in; they couldn't float. She needed to walk step by step.

So by the time Bumblebee and the others arrived and gathered there, Rosa had just begun to emerge from the water.

Her entire armor was wet. To prevent the water from splashing onto other Autobots, Rosa started to move slightly to shake off the water when only her feet were still in the water.

As she moved, she inadvertently turned around and saw the setting sun behind her, and the boundless green grass.

Orange light shone on the water, reflecting some of the green plants growing along the water's edge. In the distance, insects chirped and birds sang, and a fiery red sunset painted the sky. Pink, purple, blue, orange—all sorts of colors blended together in the air, neither chaotic nor jarring.

This is unlike the perpetually white, snow-covered landscape Rosa used to live in. Here, life abounds, greenery and wildlife abound. It's no longer a world of only cool tones; other colors constantly collide, blend, and merge, offering new experiences. Just like the beautiful scene of the sky ablaze with colorful clouds right now.

Rosa froze for a moment, and she wasn't the only one who was stunned.

Rosa's mech can be repaired by the solver no matter how many times it is damaged, even with just a scratch, so her mech's appearance will not be damaged at all.

Furthermore, half of her body is white. As we all know, white is the color that refracts light most easily. In addition, there are no scratches or abrasions on her body, making her body highly reflective of light.

As she looked back at the colorful sunset, some TFBOYS members were also watching her.

Her body was highly reflective, radiating a strong orange glow. The tiny water droplets on her body distorted the light, making her look sparkly.

"Rosa, it's time to go!" someone shouted from the partition. Rosa then realized what was happening and ran towards her teammates. Just then, the land bridge opened, and everyone returned to the base together.

"What happened to Bumblebee just now?" After watching the others return to the base and leave the hall, she quietly asked Arcee through the partition.

“Perhaps I was blinded by the light,” Arcee said with a meaningful smile. Then she greeted Jack as usual, leaving the partition to ponder this profound question alone.

Hopefully they won't be scared of themselves in the future, hehe.
