Age of Empires From Scratch

Chapter 167: Start Harvesting the Loot

  Chapter 167 Start harvesting loot

  David’s suggestion to Optimus Prime is to give the technology a little bit. This technology doesn’t need to be too high-end, just better than what the earth currently has.

   "Technology upgrades have to be done step by step."

  In fact, even if Optimus Prime handed over Cybertron technology to humans in one breath, it would be meaningless. Such a big Megatron was placed there for humans to study for decades, and the final result was just the beginning.

  In this state, if you give more high-end technology, human beings don’t have the ability to digest it immediately, so we still have to improve it a little bit.

  So, there is not much difference between Optimus Prime slowly providing technology and giving humans all technology in one go.

  The biggest impact is that the Autobots are still useful; and the Autobots are no longer useful!

  David also gave Optimus Prime an idea: let the human beings on the earth establish a unified regime as soon as possible, let’s say that there are so many forces on a fart big planet, and the resources are scattered in a mess, and there is no basic condition for civilization upgrade.

   Throwing out this kind of rhetoric, coupled with some more advanced space mining or deep sea mining technology, is enough to make the earth people toss for a long time, and they will naturally not target the Autobots at that time.

   Besides, the Autobots are already willing to provide technology, and the two parties have a basis for continuing cooperation, but there are only 'conditions'.

"That's not good?"

  Optimus Prime feels that this kind of suggestion is easy to provoke the war on the earth, but David directly refuted it with reality: "Even if you don't make this kind of suggestion, the competition for resources has never stopped. When did the war stop on the earth?"

  In comparison, if Optimus Prime is really willing to help the people on earth, it is better to let the earth establish a unified regime, and then provide space navigation, development and other technologies, so that the people on earth can focus on the endless resources in the universe.

  By the way, space development can also create more jobs and drive the development of a series of industrial chains. Technological progress can also bring better medical equipment and cure more diseases.

  In theory, this can really help humans.

  Of course, no matter how good the plan is, there will be troubles when it is actually implemented. It is uncertain how many dirty things will happen at that time, and David can't control these.

  It is impossible for Optimus Prime to take care of everything. He has already provided the technology that allows the people on earth to have a better life. If the people on earth don’t make good use of it, it’s not his fault, right?

   "If you are worried about people who want to use these technologies to do bad things, you can propose to set up a supervisory organization, which will be jointly responsible by the earth officials and the Autobots."

  If Optimus Prime doesn’t want to accept any of these suggestions, David also gave two retreats: go to Cold Winter Town! Or go outside of North America!

  Given all the suggestions, David did not continue to talk about this matter.

   It's not that he can't think of other suggestions, but that he knows that Optimus Prime will not adopt those suggestions, and some suggestions are useless.

  Even now, when Optimus Prime proposes to establish a unified regime on the earth, the Autobot leader may not actually do it.

   Seeing that David would not continue talking, Optimus Prime thanked David sincerely, and then discussed with his several Autobot partners.

  Do you want to let the people on earth establish a unified regime as David suggested? Will the Autobots help the Earthlings develop technology and enter the space age?

  If we do this, how can we ensure that the people on earth will not go astray?

  Finally, if they really want to leave, do they continue to stay on the earth, but go to live in another area? Or simply leave the earth?

   It is impossible to reach a conclusion without discussing these matters for a long time, not to mention that there are only a small number of Autobots on the earth, and there are more Autobots scattered in every corner of the universe.

   Perhaps more people should be asked for advice before making a decision?

  While the Autobots were having a small meeting, David was walking around the camp from time to time, and the lair troop was resting up and waiting, the Decepticons finally appeared.

  Megatron is really a perfect bait, coupled with the information of the fragments of the fire source, the Decepticons have no doubt that this is a trap for them.

  Of course, as David guessed, the Decepticons knew it and didn't care.

  Standing at the observation post some distance away from the ambush circle, David and Lennox looked at the ambush circle in the distance that was rumbling with constant explosions.

Countless Decepticons fell from the sky, and kept transforming into various military vehicles, weapons, or huge metal giants, and then marched towards the target against the attacks of human artillery and missiles—they thought they were going to use it to In the special facility where Megatron's body was destroyed.

In order to be deceptive enough, the lair troops deployed a large amount of defensive firepower around the camouflage facility, and the Autobots were all present. When the Decepticons saw this scene, they would definitely believe in the correctness of the information, and then went crazy Continuously attack the target facility.

  Although the reinforcements that suddenly appeared around were a bit ferocious and came at a bit fast speed, the Decepticons didn't care at all. They launched an attack firmly, and even two Hercules appeared on the field.

  The combination King Kong Hercules in the movie world is composed of a bunch of (see the setting is ten) mass-produced machines, so the Decepticons can send several Hercules at the same time as long as they want.

The appearance of the two Hercules made the battle situation more intense and stalemate, and the huge body of the Hercules became an excellent meat shield for the Decepticons, allowing the Decepticons to move forward faster and break through the earth and humans. A defensive position of Autobots.

   "Retreat to the next line of defense."

   Lennox stayed at the observation post, constantly observing the changes in the battle situation, and issued various orders in a timely manner.

  David also stayed at the observation post. He didn't participate in the front-line battle. He was never the kind of person who was keen on fighting in battle. Are you upset watching the excitement? Still think sand and gunpowder are delicious?

   But he wanted to watch the excitement quietly, but the Decepticons didn't give him this chance.

   Turning his head and seeing a soldier walking into the observation post, and then walking firmly towards William Lennox, David immediately noticed the soldier's abnormality.

"careful!"

When he called out the reminder, David had already completed the switch from human to mechanical form, and the golden energy released directly by stretching out his right hand accurately hit the soldier, knocking him into the air and smashing him heavily on the wall.

"what happened?"

  David moved very quickly. By the time everyone in the observation post realized it, David had already blown a soldier into the air.

  The soldiers of the lair troop present did not raise their guns to aim at David, but took out their weapons and pointed at the soldier who was blown away.

   After two years of fighting with the Autobots, these soldiers and the Autobots have established enough trust, so when David started, their first reaction was that there was an enemy mixed in, not that David was the enemy.

   Lennox had the same reaction, standing firmly beside David, and raised his weapon to aim at the soldier who seemed to be collapsing by the wall: "Hermit Warrior?"

   "Exactly!"

   "Fire!"

After confirming his guess from David, Lennox directly ordered to set fire to beat this guy into a waste product. The soldiers who got the order started shooting immediately, and the Decepticon, who originally wanted to feign death to cause internal conflicts, had to Transforming back into mechanical form, he revealed his weapon and prepared to fight back.

It's a pity that he didn't move fast enough. When he showed his Decepticon appearance, David on the opposite side had already shown his six-barreled Vulcan cannon. The people present only heard a 'buzz', and the Decepticon on the opposite side became a waste product.

  Several soldiers fired a few more shots, whipped the Decepticon hermit warrior, and then carefully observed the surroundings, wanting to see if there were any unfamiliar strangers among the surrounding comrades.

  David looked at the surrounding people again, and used all kinds of detection methods including holy light to make sure that there were no more hermit fighters mixed in here.

   "Transfer, go to observation post No. 2."

  The appearance of the Decepticons means that this place has been exposed. As the commander, Lennox must move, otherwise the next time will not be an assassination, but may be covered by the firepower of the Decepticons.

When David left, he glanced at the corpse of the Decepticon hermit warrior, and after confirming that he could not put this thing into the storage space, he silently marked the location of this place. Take this guy's body to Cold Winter.

   "The next time I come out to do errands, I should bring a few more storage items."

  Although each has only one cubic meter of space, a few more props can also hold a lot of things. He only brought one this time, which was a big mistake.

  Even if he brings one more, with the size of a hermit warrior, he can put it away and take it away without worrying about being taken away by the US military first.

  Out of the No. 1 observation post, Major Lennox was attacked by the Decepticons again during the transfer process, this time it was the sonic robot dog and the laser bird.

   "Aha! It's delivered to your door."

  David immediately became excited when he saw these two Decepticons running out.

The idea of ​​not being keen on fighting on the battlefield was thrown directly outside Laniakea, and the six-barreled Vulcan cannon protruding from his right shoulder crazily output at the robot dog, and the sound of "嗡~" finally ceased to sound immediately passed away.

  At the same time, it deformed into a missile launcher, and after locking on to the laser bird in the air, it fired four missiles in a row. Even though the laser bird had an unusually flexible position, it still couldn't avoid David's attack.

  David also raised his arms showing his machine guns, and kept shooting at the laser bird in the air. Under this kind of saturated firepower, the laser bird was quickly hit hard and flew away staggeringly.

   "..."

  David didn't go after him because he couldn't fly, so he poured all the remaining firepower on the robot dog, and quickly beat the robot dog into a dead robot dog.

  Looking at the pile of unrecognizable scrap iron under his feet, David directly put the robot dog's body into the storage space.

   "Pet in hand..."
