Transformers: Survival of Defective Products

Chapter 178 Encirclement

As soon as Leviathan entered the middle and lower waters, the direction of the entire water flow changed.

The sharks were churned into tiny pieces, most of them swept into the undercurrent, tumbling and crashing into the wreckage or each other.

Leviathan rampaged across the battlefield, and even the Quintesson Judge and the Curator had to avoid their massive bodies.

The vector sat atop the largest Leviathan, its optical mirrors gleaming, a smile playing on its lips, while its right pulse cannon was also busy at work.

This is riding a whale!

Optimus Prime stood beside her, atop Leviathan's back, unleashing a barrage of ion cannon shots.

Megatron's Fusion Cannon lit up on the other side.

The three barrages of fire forced the five-faced judge to retreat once again.

The curator hurriedly gathered his skeleton piece by piece, like the legs of a startled insect. The five-faced judge's incomplete figure retreated into the depths, his tentacles forced back by Megatron's cannon fire as soon as they were extended.

They can no longer maintain control of the battlefield as steadily as before.

Although several beams of white and yellow light burst forth from the ends of the tentacles, piercing through the waves and forcing back the pursuing Autobots, Leviathan would sweep them aside.

The sound wave then connected: "Enemy control chain oscillation."

BICk0 speaks very fast; I almost thought she was doing a stand-up comedy routine.

"Kill them! The effect is remarkable!"

The vector rode Leviathan, laughing as he connected his left and right arms to form a long-barreled sword cannon.

The curator shuddered at the sight of the sword-like cannon and shrieked, "Retract! Withdraw! Prosecutor, abandon the outer locking net!"

The eccentric immediately turned and swam deeper, diving into the wreckage and undercurrents to activate the facilities along the way that were not yet completely destroyed.

The Quintesson Judge was the first to retreat; having had one of its heads blown off by a sword cannon, it knew very well the power of that thing.

The seabed is extremely vast, and the area of ​​the sea around Aquitron is ridiculously large.

Below the middle and lower waters lies the calm and dark seabed, so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face. Debris is stuck diagonally in the rock strata, and some pipes are buried in the seabed silt.

The five-faced monster subtly bypassed several places and headed towards another part of the seabed.

The vector quietly recorded those routes.

Megatron transformed into a heavy jet again to catch up, while Graviton and Optimus Prime rode on Leviathan to pursue them, and the various teams quickly adjusted and submerged.

-

At the same time, the first batch of Five-Faced Monster's subordinates who couldn't hold on began to flee upwards.

Not all machines are willing to follow the Quintessons deeper into the territory.

Several bailiffs broke formation in the chaos and swam desperately upwards. A damaged, oddly shaped vehicle turned off its red identification light, trying to blend into the rising debris. Two crocodile-like vehicles skimmed over the wreckage and turned back towards the surface.

They had barely emerged from the murky water when they crashed into another shadow.

The steel cables looked down at them.

At the water's edge, the mechanical dinosaur team stood blocking the way. Just before the giant jaws of the steel cable snapped shut, they impatiently uttered a single sentence:

"Don't run away."

The crocodile demon didn't even have time to turn around; the steel cable bit its entire outer armor and flung it toward the collapsed courtroom next to it.

With a swipe of its tail, the iron slag sent two bailiffs flying back underwater. The dart skimmed the surface, forcing the shark demon, which was trying to escape from above, back into the encirclement.

Further up, the aerial fire sealed off the most likely gaps and breaches. The air raids swooped down through the sea fog, and the artillery fire precisely struck back the crocodile demons that leaped out of the water.

Black Widow gracefully leaned against a pile of rubble, her fresh "collection" hanging from her spider legs.

Several insectoid giants emerged from behind her, dragging their wet, sharp claws as they pounced on the remaining bailiffs.

The battlefield was twisted into an increasingly narrow funnel.

The main force of the five-faced monsters was at the deepest part of the funnel, desperately retreating towards the seabed.

-

Tongtianxiao led the main team to advance steadily, forcibly blocking some shark spirits that wanted to rise.

Alita led her elite guards to cut off the squad's escape route.

After AZ escaped from the shark swarm, she changed her camouflage again.

They casually released a few false identification signals, causing several shark demons to turn erratically and crash into the crocodile demon's ambush route, directly scattering the hidden currents that the enemy had just laid out.

The curator finally couldn't hold back any longer and roared, "Catch that imposter!"

AZ spread his hands with a big smile: "We'll talk again once you can find me."

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared again.

The vector's attention remains focused on the Quintessons' main force.

The five-faced judge concentrated its remaining tentacles to protect itself and the curator. The subordinates were left outside; those who could keep up continued, while those who couldn't were left to the Cybertronian home team and Leviathan.

The curator continuously activated the nodes along the route.

One by one, the red lights lit up, only to be partially extinguished by Jazz, Soundwave, BICk0, and Crystal Prism.

There were only a few red lights, dimly lit. When the vector saw one of them, it seemed strange that it was lit in such a strange position.

It's close to the route of the five-faced monsters, but not directly below them.

Something deep within her spark was slowly awakening as the depth increased, and the low-frequency cognitive interference became clearer and more stable.

Looking at the purple and white light from Megatron's thrusters, Vector patted Optimus Prime, who was still sitting behind him on Leviathan, and reminded him, "Don't go too far. Something seems off."

Megatron glanced at her sideways, clearly having taken her words to heart.

Optimus Prime nodded gently to her to indicate that he understood.

It was only then that the vector noticed that the upper half of the face of the Great Heavenly Machine could be seen from below.

Those red optical lenses, hidden in the shadows of the vehicle's form, should have been cold and hard.

But he is currently in vehicle mode.

Yin Vector almost burst out laughing, his lips trembling wildly, nearly causing him internal injury from holding it in.

Optimus Prime noticed her gaze, glanced at her for a moment, then slightly turned his head to avoid laughing out loud.

Megatron clearly noticed it, and the thruster sound was short and delayed.

He sighed, said nothing, and slowed down slightly.

The five-faced monster is desperately approaching the seabed.

In a certain direction of that seabed, there is an area that remains unusually quiet.

The crocodile demon avoided it, the shark demon wouldn't allow it to get close, and even the five-faced judge himself managed to evade it during the most chaotic evasion.

The vector was carefully observed.

The curator's voice was sharp and urgent, mixed with barely suppressed panic.

"Activate the seabed node!"

"all!"

Several red lights lit up simultaneously on the seabed, and Leviathan roared, not daring to get too close to the seabed, as it was not a suitable place for such a behemoth to move freely.

The author mentions regarding updates.
