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

Chapter 88 Single-lane key stealing... (crossed out) Single-lane hammer stealing

Everyone was preoccupied during this time, and Rosa accelerated the construction of the space bridge parts, mainly because the human side was almost finished with the parts.

That day, Rosa climbed to the maintenance access road under the land bridge, and for this purpose, Rosa even borrowed one of those maintenance decks from an ambulance.

Recently, Rosa has been lying on it with a bunch of tools around her. However, she doesn't need anyone to help her hand the tools; she can control anything with a solver at her fingertips.

Sometimes she doesn't even need to lift a finger, such as when she needs to replace a part on the top of the land bridge.

She chooses to grip the ceiling or wall with one hand, and her feet also rest on the ceiling or wall in a way that defies common sense.

After all, we're cyber vampires now. If we can sleep upside down on the ceiling like bats, then we can also climb on the ceiling, right?

In short, if you recently entered the Autobot base, you would see a scene like this: Rosa is clinging to the ceiling, one hand reaching out to control the solver, and then screwing screws or welding on the Land Bridge ceiling.

She even used her own screen, closed up, as a welding mask.

Sometimes you can see two beautiful legs sticking out of the maintenance tunnel of the land bridge; that's Rosa lying in the maintenance tunnel modifying the circuit structure above.

"Why didn't you tell us you were going back?" Jack, Mickey, and the others only learned about the possibility of returning to the base today when they arrived.

“You may not have noticed, but we’ve had quite a few troubles lately,” Arcee said, about to say something more, when suddenly a gurgling sound came from Rosa.

It was also clear that Rosa seemed to be struggling on the maintenance treadmill, and that her hands were reaching out from the maintenance passage as if she was frantically pressing something, but she couldn't reach it.

Seeing this, the ambulance rushed over and pressed the button that Rosa had missed; that button was used to cut off the energy transmission from the land bridge.

Rosa probably forgot to put it back on after testing whether it worked properly, and now she's probably been criticized... well, maybe she even got a mouthful of it.

As the ambulance pressed the button, Rosa stopped struggling, presumably because the energy was no longer flowing onto her face. The ambulance driver even gave Rosa a thumbs-up as she stretched her hand out from the maintenance tunnel before retreating back inside to continue its work.

While everyone over there was still discussing what Starscream would do with the key, whether he would return to the Decepticons, or offer a higher price, Rosa over here finally installed the last piece.

She emerged from the bottom of the land bridge, but didn't rush to close the outer shell. She needed to check the stability first to determine if it had transformed from a land bridge into a space bridge.

She remotely controlled a random space coordinate and was about to rush over to conduct the experiment when she was stopped by an ambulance.

It would be very dangerous to rush onto a space bridge or land bridge without fully testing their performance. Small ones could be teleported to a shadow zone or somewhere else, while large ones could be torn apart by turbulence.

Or perhaps you arrive at your destination to find you're missing an arm, or you've simply broken into several pieces and scattered in various corners of the universe.

In short, it was too dangerous. The ambulance pulled Rosa along, lecturing her while taking out the equipment they had prepared for the experiment.

This is a remote control device that he made casually out of scraps, which he connected to a small wooden cart used in experiments to test whether the space bridge could operate normally.

As expected, it was a success. The little wooden car successfully went to the other side and then successfully returned via remote control signal.

Rosa was about to screw the land bridge shell back on, but the ambulance took over and told her to clean up the energy spray that had hit her face and body.

To be honest... I don't know why, but when the ambulance saw Rosa like this, it gave me the feeling that she had just killed a machine and then been sprayed with energy...

However, having the energy body on her body was indeed not very comfortable. Upon hearing this, Rosa did not continue working. Instead, she chose to hand over the finishing work to the ambulance and went to the room to do a quick clean-up.

Just as everyone was excitedly discussing how to retrieve the key, they discovered another high-frequency signal, but it wasn't Starscream's; it was Haunted Wings.

Knowing that Rosa had just finished working on the Space Bridge and was cleaning up the energy fluid on her body, no one disturbed her. Instead, they headed to the location of the Haunted Wing.

This time they were smarter; they moved the space bridge a little further away beforehand, and the ambulance shut down immediately after they were all teleported there.

The other machines also raised their guns in the instant that the machine passed by, and Optimus Prime even carried the Starsword on his back this time. The ambulance had already set up the device that could carry the Starsword.

"Hands up!" A figure slowly emerged from the mist—it was Hazy Wing.

He slowly approached the Autobots, but kept a distance so that they could only hear his voice. After placing the Cyclone Hammer on the ground, he stepped back a few paces to give the Autobots a safer space.

"I'm not here to fight, this is for you." Haiyi truly had no intention of fighting.

"The Hammer of the Prodigy?" "Maybe it's loaded with bombs." Having learned from their previous experience of being raided by Red Spider, everyone instinctively felt that it wasn't that simple, and there might be another trap.

"Hyperwing, what are you prepared to offer in exchange?" Optimus Prime asked Hyperwing, holding up the Starsword.

"I just hope you can make good use of him." Haunted Wing's face was calm, unlike Red Spider's sometimes exaggerated actions. Haunted Wing's expression clearly showed that he would not resort to underhanded tactics.

This is the comparison.

"What about the Ultimate Key?" Arcee asked, still not entirely trusting them. "It's in Megatron's hands, and the place is heavily guarded," Haunted Wing replied without reservation, even answering the question of whether Starscream had defected to the Decepticons.

"Why?" Optimus Prime didn't understand why Haunted Wing was so calm, but he also knew that Haunted Wing meant no harm. He took the lead in putting the Star Sword back on his back.

“The Decepticons’ cause has been tarnished, and I’m no longer willing to fight for it.” He shook his head slightly, his eyes filled with endless disappointment and despair.

"Then I would like to invite you to join us once again and help us end this war forever." Among the Autobots, only Optimus Prime laid down his weapons and walked peacefully toward Haunting.

“Betraying my faction does not mean I will join you.” With that, the Haunted Wing turned and transformed, flying away and leaving only the Hammer of the Pride of the Sky on the ground.

The hammer was instantly ignited with countless blue lights the moment Optimus Prime grasped it.

“Perhaps we should use this hammer to replicate those keys,” Ambulance suggested. “While it is indeed very powerful, I’m afraid I can’t create the ultimate key with my abilities.”

"Hopefully Megatron won't destroy the key to prevent others from returning to Cybertron," Arcee remarked.

“Megatron may be evil, but I believe he’s someone who knows how to make the most of things,” Optimus Prime said, putting down the hammer he was holding, letting it stand upside down on the ground, and supporting its handle.

“Why don’t we just have him do it for us?” As soon as he said this, everyone turned to look at him, realizing there was a problem with what he said. He explained, “What difference does it make who restored Cybertron?”

This does involve some political issues. Optimus Prime explained that if the Decepticons restored Cybertron, they would use that to gain political advantage.

The partition didn't understand, so Optimus Prime continued to explain that the Decepticon leader might portray himself as the savior of Cybertron while listing the Autobots as war criminals.

This would allow the Decepticons' tyranny to continue, which would affect Cybertron for a long time to come, and would not be conducive to ushering in a new era.

At the same time, Optimus Prime also mentioned the existence of the Ultimate Lock, which confused everyone because it was something Optimus Prime had never mentioned before.

This time it was Optimus Prime's turn to explain to everyone that the Ultimate Lock is what the four Ultimate Keys are meant to unlock, and that it holds the hope of restoring Cybertron.

Now they must stay there to prevent Megatron from passing by.
