Chapter 258 Learning Rune Knowledge
The Hoover Dam was dug up by giants, the fire source was robbed, and Megatron also escaped, which was a very serious blow to the US government. But even so, most people are busy studying how to use this incident to attack their political opponents. As for the so-called crisis, these officials are not too concerned.
In the final analysis, it is just a giant two hundred meters high. American aircraft carriers are not only that big, but also have such a big killer as nuclear bombs. I have to say that the Americans in the movie are really confident about the nuclear bomb. Hit the enemy country? Drop a nuke. Fight aliens? Throw a nuke!
In short, as long as the opponent does not show the ability to physically resist nuclear bombs, the Americans feel that "the problem is not big."
The White House spent days working out who was to blame for what happened at the Hoover Dam. The Ministry of National Defense said that the Pentagon had never heard of that place, and the departments that are not in the establishment have nothing to do with them.
The president said that although the Seventh District is a department directly under his control, the giant was attacked in a foreign US military base, which led to direct hostility between the two sides, so the Ministry of National Defense is the main responsibility.
Although the Minister of Defense should belong to the president, this involves the entire political career, and his own people have to turn their backs. No one wants to be the scapegoat for this blame.
After wrangling for a long time, the bosses all escaped smoothly, but the Seventh District, which was originally the most damaged, was directly revoked, and the agents inside were directly dismissed, and even their pensions were lost. Sure enough, the capitalist society is ruthless, and no one who works for the US government will end well.
After someone took the blame, the U.S. government returned to a state of common hatred and began to discuss how to solve the giant's problem. As for the Decepticon threat, it was directly ignored by the US government.
This is also Tang Lin's fault. When he stunned and attacked the US military base, it could have caused great damage, and invading the US military's computer was an extremely serious provocation. But as soon as Tang Lin intervened, Dizzy only blew up a few planes and tanks, and didn't even have time to kill many US troops.
Then Dizzy was caught by Tang Lin, and after a round of missiles washed the ground, Dizzy and Starscream were blown to pieces, which was considered revenge. Then the U.S. military dragged the corpses of the two robots back to study, and the hatred value was completely cleared.
As for the fleeing Megatron, he knew that the fire source was in Tang Lin's hands, and before he found the fire source, Megatron was not going to provoke humans to increase his enemies.
So, now the hatred is all on Tang Lin, so the United States has mobilized all resources to find Tang Lin's trace. It has to be said that this world overlord is still awesome, and soon discovered the traces left by Tang Lin in Egypt.
A temple and a pyramid were destroyed, which made other countries feel that the giants seemed to have bad intentions. Coupled with the pressure from the United States, large and small countries near Egypt joined the alliance to suppress the giants.
It's just that they didn't find Tang Lin's location, because after Tang Lin resurrected the elders in Egypt, he left with the leader module and the machine that could extinguish the sun, and ran to the Sahara Desert.
Tang Lin controlled the sand and directly built an underground layer in the desert for experiments.
Under the yellow sand, Tang Lin built an underground city with a depth of seven to eight hundred meters, and built dozens of different laboratories according to the requirements of the elders. Then Tang Lin went to collect many electrical and mechanical products from all over the world.
Household appliances as small as microwave ovens, as large as locomotives and excavators, are all transformed into Transformers with the energy of the fire source after they are sent to the laboratory. These newborn robots are all mentally handicapped Decepticons, who crazily destroy their surroundings as soon as they gain life.
The elders of the Transformers were very familiar with dismantling these newborn Decepticons, they were able to pull out each other's fire, and let this Decepticon continue to live.
The most important part of Transformers is the fire, which is where the soul resides and where the power comes from. If there is a shackle, it must be in the tinder. The elders kept stimulating the fire to reveal the energy runes inside.
In fact, the elders of this kind of text can only be regarded as half-knowledgeable, while Tang Lin has the ability to fully translate. The cooperation of the two quickly deciphered a large amount of relevant knowledge. Tang Lin also quickly mastered the "basic grammar" of these energy runes under the guidance of the prophets.
Generally speaking, the larger the Transformer, the higher the spark energy. However, big size does not mean strong fighting power. For example, Optimus Prime, who is less than 30 meters tall, can beat the 50-meter-high Hercules in minutes.
The difference lies in the runes.
Energy is just energy, but with what kind of rune structure it works, the effect will be completely different. To give a simple example, Transformers have an invisible force field outside their body, which is the most basic defense ability.
It is assumed that the core rune of this invisible force field is "shield", with this "shield" rune as the center, other auxiliary runes are continuously added to enhance the effect of this "shield". Hercules' defensive rune is probably "enhanced shield", and Optimus Prime is "a hundred times superimposed melee damage reduction and long-distance weakening King Kong's indestructible super shield"
At a glance, it is clear that brother Zhuzi is much stronger than Hercules.
The same goes for other abilities. Melee weapons and long-range bombardment are all related to runes. No matter how much energy you have in total, if you don’t have enough runes, it’s still free. Tang Lin started to learn these simple runes first, and soon he was a beginner.
But after a few days, Tang Lin found that his learning speed began to slow down severely. The simple runes were finished, and after adjectives and nouns, there were verbs and entire sentences, which doubled the difficulty. Tang Lin is not a particularly smart person, so he hit a bottleneck after learning this.
But this is still a long way from the core runes that block Transformers' independent learning and evolution capabilities. Tang Lin feels that it will take him several years to learn this part.
Learning a highly civilized language in a few years might not sound too difficult to accept, but Tang Lin didn't want to hang out here for a few years. But things like IQ are really innate, and Tang Lin has no way to temporarily improve it.
The Elders of Transformers also reached their limit. They could not tell Tang Lin their experience, nor could they learn new knowledge. Even if Tang Lin told them the rune translation, their understanding speed was even faster than Tang Lin. slow down.
Temporarily stopping his studies, Tang Lin felt that he had to seek foreign aid.
A person's wisdom is limited, but in this world, there are still many talented scientists, such as the super rich "Joshua" who created the artificial Transformers in the fourth part.
