Chapter 346 Blockbuster Plot
The rain kept falling.
The heavy rain poured down, covering the entire earth in a rainy fog. Under the ruins of the viaduct, Optimus Prime quietly poked his head out and looked around.
"It seems that there are no pursuers."
"It's better not!"
Megatron said viciously, and at the same time moved his hands. A gun was assembled from his arms, and then disassembled again, as if to vent his anger.
To be honest, for them, if possible, no one wants to be with each other. But now the situation is different.
"According to the information I got, there should be only one low-level civilization on this planet that has not even broken through the gravity well! Damn, what's going on?"
Megatron was puzzled. Of course, he knew that the previous attack on himself and others was an orbital attack, and an orbital attack was a sign of a mature interstellar civilization, but the information he got showed that there was only a ruined human civilization and a low-level mechanical civilization on this planet. How could they have such means without even leaving this planet?
"But no matter what, we must get the Allspark."
Optimus Prime looked at Megatron, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his blue eyes.
"The Allspark must not fall into the hands of others!"
"I know!"
Hearing Optimus Prime's words, Megatron glared at him unhappily. In fact, Megatron originally wanted to abandon Optimus Prime and run away alone, but after thinking about it, he realized that the planet was extremely strange and there were orbital air strikes. He was reluctant to give up the Allspark that was so close, so Megatron finally agreed to temporarily join forces with Optimus Prime - in this way, even if he encountered any danger, he would have someone to take the bullet, right?
Just now Megatron had called his subordinates, but no one responded, which was equivalent to the annihilation of the whole army. He was now a commander without troops, and Optimus Prime seemed to look similar, so now was not the time to fight a civil war. He had to get the Allspark first, and then... Then!
Optimus Prime certainly knew that Megatron had bad intentions, but he knew Megatron better and knew that this guy was afraid of death. In this situation, Megatron would definitely let him be a shield and bait, but on the other hand, this also meant that he would not attack him before getting the Allspark.
Of course, Optimus Prime was not a gentleman. If the Allspark was right in front of him, then it would be the time for him to attack Megatron—I guess the other party thought so too.
So, a fragile and sinister alliance was formed.
"How far is it!"
"Not too far! Follow me!"
After saying this, Megatron went out from under the wreckage of the viaduct, and seeing his figure, Optimus Prime also frowned, followed closely behind him, and rushed away into the distance.
However, neither of them noticed that shortly after they left, a small drone quietly and slowly rose from the wreckage not far away. It stared at the backs of Optimus Prime and Megatron as they went away, and the bright red camera kept flashing. After a moment, the drone randomly flew in their direction.
And all of this was seen by Duanmu Huai.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really comfortable to be a villain..."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai changed his position on the chair. No wonder so many bosses in Hollywood treasure hunting and tomb-robbing blockbusters like to wait for their chance. How comfortable it is. The protagonists go through life and death, drink muddy water and fight to death, while I sit in the back and drink ice cola and eat potato chips to block the exit and catch turtles in the jar. This is really a good life that even gods would not change.
That's right, just enjoying yourself is not called enjoyment, watching others suffer while enjoying yourself is called enjoyment.
Like now, Duanmu Huai is watching two hateful intelligences running in the ruins and mud like drowned dogs, with several Skynet drones staring at them from behind. He is holding Ogis, with Kula and Bambi crawling on his shoulders. Look, who is living comfortably, you can tell at a glance.
The planet has become a mess at present. The two hateful intelligences from aliens are trying to find some kind of holy object, while Skynet has been beaten into autism and now has turned itself into a turtle and dares only to send drones for external reconnaissance, even cutting off the connection with other sub-bases.
On the other hand, the rebels are not much better. Their headquarters were destroyed by this group of hateful intelligences. Fortunately, Skynet itself is now autistic, otherwise the rebels would probably be finished. But fortunately, Skynet is currently too busy to take care of them, and the rebels are also looking for a new base as their base.
Duanmu Huai is holding the little girl, drinking Coke, eating potato chips and watching blockbusters... Well, comfortable.
By the way, for the sake of safety, Duanmu Huai brought several destroyers and reconnaissance ships to block the planet to prevent any more abominations from Cybertron from coming to the planet to cause trouble. Well, when things are over here, he will blow up Cybertron to prevent future troubles.
At this moment, everyone else went to do their own things, and only a few people stayed here to watch the live broadcast with Duanmu Huai.
But some people were full of doubts about this.
"Mr. Judge."
Lumiel looked at Duanmu Huai with a little hesitation.
"We destroyed the database of the time machine. Is this really okay?"
"Of course."
Duanmu Huai glanced at Lumiel and immediately understood what she was thinking.
"I can guess what you are thinking, but don't do such stupid things. Anyone who tries to control time will in turn be controlled by time. When you proudly create a time machine and think you can change the past , you have already fallen into the trap of time. In the end, you will get nothing, and you will always be greeted by ruined nothingness and despair. "
That is to say, Skynet is an artificial retard and cannot have emotions, otherwise it should have understood this long ago - trying to change the past does not mean that you can control the future, and everything you do is an inescapable part of the web of time. , just like a fish, the more you struggle, the tighter the net becomes. In the end, you are left desperate and exhausted, waiting for the final doom.
"The past is fixed, the present is fluid, and the future is blank. Just knowing these is enough."
This is Duanmu Huai's attitude towards time. He will not think about changing the past, let alone peek into the future. Both the past and the future are unchangeable in Duanmuhuai's view - or in other words, as long as you don't know that you can change, you won't change.
Just like that old joke - the Demon King learned from the prophecy that the Hero will destroy himself, so he sent troops to destroy the Hero, but in the end he created the Hero to destroy himself - the perfect closure of time, the overlapping self prophecy.
And there's...frustration.
That's right, if the Demon King doesn't know the future, then to him, the brave man is just one of the many living beings who come to challenge him, so the victory or defeat can only be known after fighting.
But if the Demon King knows the future, then he subconsciously believes that the Hero will definitely destroy himself, so when the Hero stands in front of him, the Demon King will naturally feel fear and unimaginable despair and frustration. After all, he already knew the future and sent people to try to change the future. As a result, the future still appeared in front of him in this form. Doesn't that mean that everything he did was meaningless in the face of time?
So the Demon King's morale instantly dropped to -50.
So you see, predicting the future is not a good thing.
Therefore, Duanmu Huai also stayed away from the two powers of changing the past and predicting the future. He was too lazy to fall into the despair and emptiness of being unable to struggle. For Duanmu Huai, the reality in front of him was everything. Whether you have done it or not, you will know after the beating. What is the fixed past and predicted future? As long as I don’t know it, then the future does not exist!
You know, even the treacherous one can't see through the future, so he has to get himself a two-headed monster to help him.
It can be seen that in the face of time, even the Chaos Evil God cannot move freely.
So any idiot who tries to control time will eventually be played by time, without exception.
"That's right, Lumière."
At this moment, Eclair also patted Lumière on the shoulder.
"The judge is right. We don't need to care about the future or the past at all. We just need to live in the present! Besides, even if we go back to the past, if we can't change the past, isn't that even more of a failure?"
"But... isn't this a form of cowardice?"
Lumière still seemed unable to agree, while Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders.
"Escape is shameful but useful. There is no perfect person, and there is no perfect God. There will always be a fate that cannot be changed. At that time, just turn around... Of course, you have to go to a bloody head. I won't stop you, and only you can decide what your fate will be. But... the Tribunal will not sign a formal contract with you."
If I don't beat you to death as a heretic, Duanmu Huai is showing mercy.
"…………………I see."
Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Lumière was silent for a moment and then answered. Then she looked at Duanmuhuai with a bit of surprise in her eyes.
To be honest, Lumier didn't have a deep impression of Duanmuhuai, but judging from his appearance and previous experience, in Lumier's impression, Duanmuhuai seemed to be more similar to his partner Eclair, both of whom were The type who can use his hands but not his brain. And he has a hot temper and is reckless. So when Lumière thought that escaping was just a sign of cowardice, she was even prepared for Duanmu Huai to be furious with her.
But what Lumière didn't expect was that instead of getting angry at her, Duanmu Huai admitted it very readily. I have to say that this really made Lumiere look at Duanmu Huai with admiration. After all, if it were Eclair, even if she thought she was wrong, she would be so stubborn that she would reluctantly apologize to herself in the end.
This also caused Lumiere's impression of Duanmu Huai to change. Obviously, this man who looked rough, wild, and scary was not as innocent as he seemed on the surface. Not only is he thoughtful, he even has enough boundaries and sense of proportion. You must know that even Lumière was momentarily excited when he learned that Skynet could really create a time machine.
After all, she and Eclair had experienced a terrible past. If they could change everything... and start over... such a temptation would be irresistible to Lumière.
But now it seems that I really thought it was simple.
How can the power of time be changed by oneself?
Thinking of this, Lumiel glanced at Duanmu Huai again, and then retracted her gaze. In fact, she was also very curious before, why a man like Duanmu Huai, who looked fierce and scary, would have these beautiful girls around him. Now Lumiel finally discovered that this man, in addition to being fierce, still had some... strange attractions.
"What's wrong? Lumiel?"
Looking at her partner standing there in a daze, Aclair asked curiously, and Lumiel was stunned for a moment and shook her head.
"Nothing, I'm very sorry to bother you."
"Oh, it's okay."
Duanmu Huai waved his hand, and at this moment, Bambi, who was lying on his shoulder, stretched out his hand excitedly to point to the screen.
"Family! Family! Look! They ran into a cave, have they found a place?"
"Oh? Let me see... ..."
Duanmu Huai turned on the radar again and scanned the place. The results showed that there was indeed a large hole under the mountain, which looked like some kind of research facility... and there seemed to be some kind of barrier at the bottom that could not pass through the scan... Well, it should be here most likely.
"Okay."
After confirming the destination, Duanmu Huai also stood up.
"It's time for us to play the role of the yellow bird!"
