Chapter 1145: A Battle of Words

Then, the large truck started transforming! It folded several times and became a huge robot! Electricity surged all over its body, but it seemed to have gone crazy, attacking the surrounding trees and ground in a frenzy. Everything within its range became the target of its attack! Its mechanical joints were making creaking noises as if they were rusty.

Next, everyone saw Paul sitting in the cockpit in the robot’s chest.

Paul’s head was completely deformed!

The phrase “head was completely deformed” was a little vague, so to be specific, it would be more accurate to say that Paul’s head had been smashed in from both sides. The enemy’s strength was great, but Paul’s skull had a certain toughness because a contestant’s body was stronger than that of ordinary people, so after receiving those fierce blows, his skull did not shatter even though it was crushed. However, the normal width of a human skull was about 30 centimeters, and Paul’s skull had been compressed to around 15 centimeters!

What a bizarre sight.

What a tragic sight!

Thanks to his horrible yet funny-looking deformed head, Paul, who was controlling the robot, had a twisted expression on his face.

His two eyes protruded almost two or three centimeters out of their sockets. Thick blood flowed down his nostrils and ear holes, and there was a silky white liquid mixed in with the blood! The tenacious vitality of a contestant forcefully prolonged the life of the dying Paul, causing him to fly into a final, blind rage, pouring all his anger, all his strength, all his humiliation onto the surrounding trees and ground.

“This… This…” Pokan was so shocked that he could barely speak.

On the other hand, Sheyan stared at the raging robot that could transform and uttered, “This should be Paul’s trump card, right? He sure can keep a secret. A giant robot that can transform…is it a Transformer?”

“No, it’s not,” said Dardanian, “Paul got lucky. He managed to get his hands on a small fragment of the AllSpark.”

(TL: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/AllSpark )

“NO WAY!” Hearing the word “AllSpark”, everyone sucked in a cold breath at the same time.

Even those who had not experienced the Transformers world must know the significance of the AllSpark. Like the One Ring of the Lord of the Rings world, the Mask of Loki in the world of The Mask, and the spider which gave Spider-Man his power, it was something which contained the ultimate secret of that parallel world.

For Paul to get his hands on the AllSpark while still being an Awakener was akin to playing an MMORPG and drawing a lucky account which contained a godly equipment in it. Although it was only a fragment of the AllSpark, it was still really amazing.

Dardanian waited for the others to recover from the shock before he continued, “All of you probably know that when the AllSpark gets near a complex machine, it can bestow the machine with life and the ability to transform. Using his ability to control metal and metallic puppets, Paul blended the AllSpark fragment into a metallic puppet of his to create this powerful transformable robot, which Paul named the “God of War”.”

Right as Dardanian finished his explanation, Paul finally heaved his last breath and died a miserable death. His robot exploded violently and disappeared from this world.

Sheyan sneered when he heard the name “God of War”.

“The “God of War”, huh? That guy sure was arrogant.”

Dardanian sighed. “Seaman, I’m serious. This guy once fought an Autobot storyline character in the Transformer world to a tie. He might actually have won if his summoning didn’t have a time limit.”

Sheyan said no more. He merely nodded with a frown.

“The enemy’s intention is obvious – he’s trying to mess with our minds. We only need to stick close together and avoid falling into confusion, and there should be no problem.”

While Sheyan was saying this, he suddenly detected a faint smell of sulphur. His heart instantly tightened. He was about to call out a warning, but a pair of red, merciless eyes could already be seen in the distance, staring at them.

In the field of vision of the eyes which were like infrared detectors, there were two red triangles that were jumping about constantly. They aligned themselves with the heads of two of the human figures in his vision that were glowing red because they were emitting heat. A notification appeared to inform the Predator that the targets had been locked on!

In the next second, two beams of striking high-energy plasma bolts seemed to appear from the void to hit the shocked Pokan and Dardanian in the head simultaneously. After the violent explosions, both of them were flung away. Having their vital spots hit not only hurt them tremendously, it also caused a certain degree of intense dizziness!

Then, a tall figure appeared slowly from the empty air like a devil.

He was a Predator that was much larger than a normal Predator. He wore a majestic red mask that had a strange symbol on it. It was a symbol of supreme glory within the Predator clan that only a powerful “Cleaner” could obtain after racking up enough kills!

(TL Note: “Cleaners” are Predators who specialise in “clean up” operations, like Wolf in Alien vs. Predator: Requiem. )

The figure wore a set of majestic red armour that exuded a sacred air. His unusually strong brown muscles were exposed from the gaps in the armour. He actually carried two high-energy shoulder cannons on his shoulders, one on the left and one on the right!

Not only that, there was also a glorious crystal on the navel position on his abdomen. At first glance the crystal looked bright, but if one stared at it for a bit longer, it would seem as deep as a bottomless well. One would find their gaze being sucked into it! It was obviously more than a simple ornament.

The only good news was that a similar crystal on the Predator’s chest was already dim and had clear cracks on it, apparently destroyed during his previous fight with Paul.

The armour worn by this unexpected visitor was exclusive to the powerful Arbitrators. Low-ranking Predators were not qualified to wear it.

The qualification here was not referring to one’s status. This kind of armour, though tough and strong, was surprisingly heavy. That was why they could only be worn by the Arbitrators. If an ordinary Predator was to wear it, they could not even walk for very long, let alone fight in it. In fact, many of the Predator’s systems were not as strict as one would expect. One could even wear the Queen’s equipment as long as one was able to obtain and use them.

***

The powerful creature that came for them was the commander of the Predator mothership, the murderer who killed his own daughter, and one of the few who rose to the rank of Arbitrator with the achievements of a Cleaner!

Surado Bloodspear!

Sheyan instantly knew that things were going to be bad when he saw the two most vulnerable members of the team being attacked. He immediately triggered ‘Hornrage’!

However, the Arbitrator was an extremely experienced fighter. The attacks on the two humans before were actually done by the biological computer on his body, while his own attention was almost fully focused on Sheyan! Therefore, the moment the red triangles of the rangefinders locked onto Dardanian and Pokan, the crystal on his abdomen had also activated. A ray of light that was as sharp as a needle and as flexible as silk moved through the air like a snake and shot into the spot between Sheyan’s eyebrows!

Sheyan’s vision instantly turned pitch black, and then countless cracks appeared among the darkness! He felt as if blood was seeping through those cracks, his entire person submerged in an angry sea of boundless pain. When he finally managed to inhale, the breath was dry and burnt. His blood boiled and rushed to his temples, making his head feel like it was going to explode.

In the eyes of others, Sheyan was about to rush forward like a brave tiger, but he suddenly stopped. His pupils narrowed to the size of needle tips, and his eyes became bloodshot! The Arbitrator seized advantage of Sheyan’s momentary lapse to raise his right hand and shoot a glowing sphere straight at Sheyan. The sphere spread out in the air to transform into a metal net and covered Sheyan up. It initially looked like there was only one metal net, but upon closer inspection, there were at least ten overlapping nets in that attack!

Previously, Sheyan could tear a metal net in half with his strength and powerful gloves, but when ten metal nets were stacked together, he was instantly trapped tight!

“Luckily, Ronnie and Aldaris can still give me a hand….” This was the only thought left in Sheyan’s mind amidst the severe pain.

However, little did he know that while the Arbitrator was shooting the nets at him, the Arbitrator had also flashed bizarrely, and four shadows appeared. They aimed straight for Aldaris, Ronnie, Pokan and Dardanian simultaneously!

In merely an instant, Sheyan was trapped while Ronnie and Aldaris were taken by surprise by the powerful Arbitrator’s attack, so they instinctively defended themselves. This gave the Arbitrator the chance to crush them one by one!

And the main target of the Arbitrator was the most vulnerable person in the team and the one with the strongest support ability, Pokan!

Without any warning signs, the Predator charged forward. A shiny tube had suddenly appeared in his hand. With a slight shake, sharp tips extended from both ends of the tube to turn it into an extremely sharp hunting spear. The spear suddenly burned with a fierce flame!
