Chapter 30 Contacts of the Fifth Kind
Ethan's initial idea was to indirectly contact the official through the female data analyst in the video. The analyst was able to meet the Secretary of Defense directly. In addition, she realized that the situation was wrong early, so it was not difficult to convince her to help convey some news.
But when he asked Tony to check the specific location of Maggie through the Internet, he found that the female analyst and the fat black computer expert she found had been taken away by FBI agents.
Cover your face!
Such mistakes will occur in multi-line narrative plots. Maybe when you finish the work here and think of the other side, the plot there is already over.
“What should I do now?”
"There is no good idea. Can you directly invade the Ministry of Defense?"
"..." Tony blinked his innocent big eyes, and then looked straight at Ethan: "What did you say just now? I may not hear it clearly."
"Because there is a lack of a suitable middleman to contact us, we can only choose a simple and crude method of invasion."
This kind of invasion should be something that Transformers and other silicon-based lives are better at doing, but not all Transformers are good at these things. They have different forms and their strengths, and these specialties can see some clues from objects they can transform.
For example, most of the deformed Bosses are civilian equipment, while the more radical and crazy crazy people are basically military facilities.
As for the small King Kong who is confused with special talents, both sides have it, but the small King Kong of Bopai has not yet arrived on Earth. It will take until the plot develops to the next two episodes before the small King Kong of Bopai will come to Earth.
This is because compared to these big guys, the small King Kongs have poor self-protection ability. The current Bopai has not yet regarded the earth as their refuge, and they are just here to find a source of fire.
After finding the source of fire, the Bopai King Kong led by Optimus Prime will likely return to the universe to continue his interstellar refugee life, looking for a planet in the vast universe where they can settle.
So now, the few Autobots on Earth are basically elite soldiers in front of the ambulance. Even if they fight against the Kuang Sect head-on, they are not afraid of doing such a more technical thing. But I don’t know how to start.
"You want me to do this?"
"Anyway, this is definitely not a problem for you, a super genius."
"I just want to say you're looking for the right person!"
Tony nodded and agreed casually in the stunned silence of Sam and Mikaela. What they just said was the invasion of the Ministry of Defense? It seems that it is not a convenience store on the street, right? Didn’t you look shocked just now? Why did you agree with pride suddenly?
Sam didn't know Tony at all. Does Tony care about the Ministry of Defense or the White House? Besides, this is not the Ministry of Defense in his world, so there is even less psychological pressure when invading.
The nano armor has been re-dressed. In addition to being more convenient for network invasion, he also needs to take photos of Optimus Prime through the camera on the armor.
Otherwise, if an Earthling was a person on earth, he would discuss with those guys that alien civilizations and Earthlings would work together to eliminate the problem of Cybertron rebels, and what is more likely to be that he was regarded as a lunatic.
Optimus Prime is different. You can tell at a glance that this is definitely not a human on earth. The existence of a life that is completely different from carbon-based life will increase enough persuasion.
Sure enough, when Optimus Prime's machine face appeared on the big screen in the command center, everyone was stunned.
Ethan is not worried about Optimus Prime's negotiations with the other party. As a qualified leader, he doesn't need his guidance on these diplomatic matters.
In short, Optimus Prime had a preliminary conversation with the other party and expressed his desire to have a good conversation. Next, it depends on whether the other party chooses peace or starts a war directly.
Ethan doesn't care what bad changes will this random act of destroying the plot.
Even in his eyes, if the Transformers realized in advance that the Earthlings were not welcomed, and then chose to return to the universe after taking back the source of the fire, it might be possible to avoid the tragedy in the next few movies - after eliminating the Decepticons, for humans, the only threat left is the Autobot. In the crazy encirclement and pursuit, the ambulance standing next to Ethan is dead at the hands of humans.
Such an ending is really not good. If you avoid this ending, you will still be a helper for the Autobot.
"How about it?"
The communication was over, and the Autobots looked at each other and suddenly didn't know what to do next.
Optimus Prime has already said everything he can say, such as the Earthlings have their treasures and fire sources, and they also imprisoned Megatron, the rebel leader of the planet Cybertron.
Now Megatron's subordinates have arrived on Earth and are preparing to rescue their leaders. The attacks and various abnormal situations that the US military has suffered during this period are all done by the Decepticons.
Even if these are facts, humans cannot trust Optimus Prime immediately. Just as Optimus Prime did not trust Ethan at the beginning, humans are even more cautious about him than Optimus Prime is wary of Ethan.
After all, they are completely unfamiliar and even completely different living beings. Considering that Transformers can travel to the earth at will, it proves that they have mastered technology far beyond the earth, which makes humans even more nervous.
What's more, the Minister of Defense and a group of generals are still doubting the authenticity of this communication. They are conducting identification in a intensive manner, wanting to know if the images on the video were made through computer technology.
"In fact, if they want to act as fast as possible, they only need to send this video to the public signal and play it once to ordinary people around the world."
When it is only spread internally, the efficiency will be amazing...slow!
Even though they had known the existence of Transformers for a long time, the human technology in this world grew up from Megatron's various reverse engineering, and there was also a departmental seventh district dedicated to Transformers. However, in many cases, they would not share the secrets between various departments, even if a world war broke out here.
If all the so-called secrets are exposed, it would be different. They would integrate all the information at the fastest speed and then make a decision in the shortest time: whether the decision is good or bad.
"Do you want to inform them?"
"You can do it!"
Tony shrugged his shoulders and sent another message over there: If they cannot give a response before tomorrow morning, they will send the previous message directly to the public platform!
No matter what, with this notice, the other party will definitely make a decision as soon as possible, even if it is sent to encircle a few people, it will be a reaction.
“What are you going to do next?”
"Send them home?"
Both Autobots and Ethan turned their attention to Sam and Mikayla.
By this time, Sam had no reason to leave. Whether he met the US military or the official representative or went directly to fight with the Decepticons, these two ordinary high school students could not participate.
It is not possible to send it away directly, because the Decepticon still doesn't know the location of Megatron. They will still lock Sam as the target of the attack, hoping to find Megatron through Sam?
If Sam was sent back like this, the Decepticons would definitely launch an attack on him.
Those lunatics don't care about hurting the innocent. Sam still has some value to use and may be able to save his life, but his parents are not sure.
"So Sam needs to be with us before he can eliminate the Decepticons."
Although it was a scoop, it was really hard to throw it aside and ignore it, so the Hornet was ordered to protect Sam.
Mikala could actually leave, but she didn't mention this, and seemed to want to stay here more - this girl was very tough and wild inside, unwilling to leave like this, she wanted to know what would happen next.
Even if she knew she might have experienced a big battle, she didn't care: after all, she was at the age of not being afraid of heaven or earth.
No one was about to leave, and the Autobot transformed into various vehicles, carrying everyone toward the target location.
Just after the delay, the Pentagon finally sent a message that the Secretary of Defense expressed his willingness to interview Optimus Prime, the Cybertron leader from faraway space, and agreed to meet in a relatively empty and "safe" location.
Tony was very familiar with the terrain of North America and immediately knew why the other party chose there.
"At the time when we were rushing over, the other party could mobilize considerable military forces to arrange it into a siege."
He understood the situation very clearly, and it depends on how Optimus Prime chooses.
“I hope to complete this negotiation.”
He will not give up the opportunity to communicate with the other side just because the other party may mobilize the army. He believes that as long as he expresses enough kindness, the other party can understand that these Transformers have no malicious intentions towards humans.
Sometimes Optimus Prime's thoughts make Ethan a little speechless, or Optimus Prime always looks down on humans from the perspective of higher civilizations, and has not treated humans as threats from the beginning, so he doesn't care about the other party's hostility at all, right?
However, Ethan didn't care what Optimus Prime was thinking. He just felt that since it was his proposal, then what he said was negotiation must be negotiation and it must not be anything else. Otherwise, it would not be Optimus Prime who was slapped in the face but him.
"I promise you can complete the face-to-face communication smoothly."
Want to become an ambush against alien invaders? In addition to facing the powerful counterattack of the Transformers, you also have to ask Ethan if he agrees.
