The journey of film and television world is endless

#580 - Chapter 17: Fallen King Kong (Part 2)

“Buzz buzz buzz~!” The TV shook for a while, and the image turned into a hideous-looking robot. The decorative armor plates on both sides of its head looked somewhat similar to the pharaohs in Egyptian murals. “People of Earth, your government and leaders have concealed the truth. Humans are not alone; there are countless intelligent life forms in the universe. In fact, we are hidden among you, but not anymore. Because you have sheltered traitors from our planet, which means you have chosen to stand against us.” Then the scene on the TV switched to a burning city, and then the scene turned to the sea, where a burning aircraft carrier slowly sank into the sea. Even through the screen, you could hear the dying screams of humans.

The scene cut back to the Fallen's head: “You have all seen, we can easily destroy your cities, and your most powerful armies and weapons of war. Now you must expel the Autobots and hand over this human. If you choose to be our enemy, I don’t mind destroying the entire Earth.”

Immediately afterward, the TV screen showed Sam's photos and information.

Liu Yuan pointed at the TV: “Frenzy, do you recognize this guy?”

Frenzy: “Master, I have not seen it, but Soundwave has mentioned it. It is called the Fallen, one of the lost seven prime members of the Cybertronian Council. About five thousand years ago, the Decepticon headquarters received a signal from the edge of the galaxy, said to be sent by the Fallen, claiming to have information about the AllSpark and Megatron. Several leaders argued endlessly about this, and Starscream personally led a group of Decepticons to search this star field. I followed Soundwave to this remote star system a hundred years ago. Around that time, Starscream escorted a stasis pod back to the solar system, and the Fallen was inside.”

The TV signal returned to normal, but the whole world was in an uproar. This time, the Decepticons directly hacked into the satellite system and forcibly inserted the Fallen's message. Soundwave also thoughtfully provided simultaneous translation. The aliens that had been hidden by the government were directly exposed to the public.

The countries most affected were France and the United States. Half a block of downtown Paris was directly destroyed, and the United States lost all the main ships of the Second Fleet. The news could not be concealed, so they simply stopped news control.

Liu Yuan was not worried. According to the information Frenzy told him, there were only a hundred or so Decepticons in total. Humans had not been idle in the past two years and had developed methods to block Decepticon communications.

He had already taken away the Star Harvester. Faced with the powerful military strength of the United Nations Security Council, Liu Yuan believed that the Fallen would not be able to make any waves.

Liu Yuan was relaxed, but beneath that calm appearance, Sam's heart was full of torment. Optimus Prime had resolutely died in battle to protect him. Even he himself had been dragged into this conflict and had become the target of pursuit by various countries. Mikaela and Leo were also included in the wanted list, and he was facing an unprecedented crisis because of him. Sam's heart was full of guilt and self-blame.

Ironhide's worries had finally come true. Those seemingly upright human politicians could not be relied upon in critical moments.

After the Autobots painstakingly retrieved Optimus Prime's body, they thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, but a large number of American soldiers swarmed in, driving military Humvees and infantry fighting vehicles, and surrounded the remaining Autobots.

The Autobots instantly became alert. They did not hesitate to reveal their weapons, and the cold muzzles pointed directly at the American soldiers, and an intense confrontation began.

How could Ironhide's irritable temper tolerate such humiliation? He glared angrily and roared: “Hey, you guys dare to point guns at me, do you believe I will smash you all into small pancakes?” Before he finished speaking, the electromagnetic cannon on his body had begun to flicker with dazzling light, fully charged, and ready to launch a deadly energy bullet. The American soldiers were even more nervous when they saw this, and their guns were aimed at the Autobots, and a conflict was about to break out.

“Hey, stop, put down your guns, did you hear me? These are our allies, you can't point guns at them!” William shouted anxiously, leading his men out of the hangar, rushing between the two sides, trying to stop the impending conflict.

The American military commander got out of the armored Humvee, his eyes revealing an unquestionable determination, and said: “You should let those Autobots put down their weapons first, we are here under clear orders from our superiors.”

William roared: “Damn it, damn it, how can you point guns at our comrades? Whose orders are you following? This order is simply absurd!”

The American military commander was not affected by William's emotions. He just pointed expressionlessly at the car and said: “Major, you don't have to yell at me! I am also carrying out orders from above. If you have any questions or dissatisfaction, you can go to the person who issued the order.”

At this moment, the President's security advisor, Galloway, got out of the other side of the Humvee. He first gently straightened his collar, and then slowly said: “Now here, everything must listen to me, Major. Your unit has been officially disbanded, this is an order personally issued by the President. From now on, all hostile actions against the Decepticons must be stopped immediately, and all members of the NEST unit must quickly return to Diego Garcia base, where they will patiently await further instructions.”

After William heard Galloway's words, an unbelievable expression appeared on his face. He waved his arms forcefully and retorted excitedly: “Advisor Galloway, we are a joint force, we only accept General Morshower's orders, you have no right to tell us what to do!”

Galloway took out that piece of paper again with a serious face and slapped it hard on his chest: “Now I have this right, you see clearly, this is no ordinary paper, this is a warrant signed by the President, and approved by the Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. From this moment on, you must obey orders, there is no room for negotiation! Those hateful Decepticons, they came for the Autobots, but in the end, it was our soldiers who suffered the losses! Don't you know? The Second Fleet is completely finished! The number of casualties is as high as seven thousand, what a terrible price! From now on, the initiative in this war must be firmly in the hands of our great America, and we must never let those alien creatures run wild!”
