Sun Cheng was still unaware of everything happening in the Extreme North Snow Plain, and naturally, Moon was even more clueless.
However, under his command, the Decepticons, using four Golden Eagle fighter jets, launched dozens of temperature difference bombs. After collaborating with the Autobots to strike a wave of Decepticons, his attention had shifted elsewhere.
After all, the Arctic Circle was too far from South America, and beside Great Canada was the United States, holding the largest nuclear arsenal. Even if Sun Cheng wanted to intervene, he was powerless.
Therefore, while the satellite continued to monitor the Arctic Circle, observing the further development of the situation, Sun Cheng himself had stopped personally overseeing the matter.
He was busy now. The Decepticons led by Lightning, engaging with the people of the United States in the Arctic Circle, sent an unpleasant signal to him.
Sun Cheng believed that such incidents would only increase and become more frequent in the future. In fact, from the moment Lightning and his team arrived in the Solar System and subsequently dispatched Decepticons to attack the Black Market, Sun Cheng had been making preparations.
And now, one of Sun Cheng's important subordinates, after undergoing nearly half a year of transformation, had finally undergone a rebirth.
Near Lake Titicaca, within an area designated as a military restricted zone by Bolivia.
At this moment, inside an oval-shaped, massive roofed building, dozens of engineers and several technical officers were busy under the command of four Decepticon engineers.
They surrounded a giant mechanical warrior lying flat in the spacious building, towering over thirty meters in height. Some Decepticon technical officers even stood directly on the mechanical warrior.
Their three to four meters height seemed insignificant compared to the mechanical warrior.
This colossal mechanical warrior was none other than Hynix.
Sun Cheng stood in a corner of the workshop, his eyes fixed on Hynix undergoing the final upgrade.
A Decepticon engineer stood beside him, explaining the progress of the transformation.
"Commander-in-chief, in the first phase, we re-forged Lord Hynix's mechanical body, replacing all the special steel alloys used on his mechanical body with Systern Alloy."
Sun Cheng nodded, watching the dormant Hynix, feeling a twinge in his heart.
Systern Alloy was not a metal created by the Cybertronians; it came from another interstellar civilization in the Milky Way.
It was said that during the era of the Cybertron Council of Primes, the Cybertronians and another interstellar civilization waged a war lasting nearly a thousand years to vie for Quintesson's legacy extraterrestrial colonies.
In the end, the other interstellar civilization was defeated, forced to sign a ceasefire agreement with the Cybertronians, leading to a series of compensations.
Systern Alloy was one of the many technologies that the interstellar civilization compensated to the Cybertronian civilization. It was a complex forging process of a robust titanium alloy. The name originated from the pronunciation of titanium in the Cybertronian language, which was similar to "Systern."
This alloy was excellent, being harder, with a higher melting point and corrosion resistance compared to special steel alloys. It was widely used in Cybertronians' mechanical bodies, especially those above advanced warriors.
Although the formula for Systern Alloy was not a secret for Autobots and Decepticons, with the depletion of resources on Cybertron Planet, this metal became very precious in the later stages of the Civil War.
With Sun Cheng's current influence, the total monthly synthesis of Systern Alloy did not exceed one hundred tons.
However, this time, in order to upgrade Hynix's new mechanical body, over a thousand tons were used all at once.
It was no wonder Sun Cheng felt a twinge; the Decepticon engineer, however, was oblivious, continuing to explain to him.
"...Although we wanted to create a stronger Spark for Lord Hynix, limited by current technology, we can only use one Spark from the stock of an Elite Warrior. After debugging and making subtle modifications, we replaced it for Lord Hynix. At the same time, to ensure Lord Hynix's powerful combat endurance, we have installed a set of auxiliary power systems previously designed for you, Commander-in-chief, inside his new mechanical body..."
Sun Cheng's Decepticons still hadn't mastered mature Spark cultivation technology. After all, for Cybertronians, a Spark was as essential as a human's heart.
The Decepticon engineers in Base Two initially had no knowledge of Spark cultivation technology. Later, because Sun Cheng possessed several fragments of the All Spark, his Decepticon engineers gradually summarized some experiences during the process of inducing the birth of new Decepticons using the fragments. They slowly began cultivating Sparks using All Spark fragments.
However, compared to the later acquisition of a substantial amount of new Decepticon cultivation technology from Scalpel, and the rapid maturation of Decepticon cultivation, cultivating Sparks presented greater difficulties.
The difficulty of cultivating Sparks was far beyond that of cultivating new Decepticons directly.
Sun Cheng's Decepticon engineers, after more than two years of repeated experiments, could only cultivate level 1-2 Sparks that could be replaced for ordinary warriors or technical professionals. And the success rate of Spark cultivation had not surpassed forty percent so far. There was only a chance of less than one percent to occasionally cultivate a level 3 Spark.
Because of this, if Sun Cheng's Decepticons wanted to advance to advanced warriors or higher-ranked engineers, they had to find alternative methods.
Fortunately, Sun Cheng and his team found a way – seizing from other Decepticons and Autobots.
Yes, this was also the reason why Sun Cheng had always been enthusiastic about recovering the corpses of Decepticons and Autobots after battles. It was not only to decipher the secrets of their mechanical bodies but also to extract valuable metals and rare materials from their corpses.
Most importantly, the memory chips and Sparks of any Decepticon were strategic assets of great value to Sun Cheng, who had started from scratch in this world.
Hearing this, Sun Cheng nodded, his expression very solemn.
This was also one of the important reasons why he had been trying to win over Autobots, avoiding making enemies with both Autobots and the Skytiger Legion simultaneously.
With various means at his disposal and control over resources in two worlds, Sun Cheng had indeed rapidly become a powerful force in the Transformers Universe on Earth over the past nearly three years. However, his foundation was still much weaker compared to the Autobots and the Skytiger Legion.
Base Two could now mass-produce ordinary Decepticon warriors, but Sun Cheng still faced strict limitations due to Sparks if he wanted to cultivate warriors above the advanced level.
Even he, personally, had to implant a depleted All Spark fragment into his own Spark. Then, after transferring his memory chip to his new mechanical body and infusing energy into the Spark of the new mechanical body, inducing the fragment to cause a mutation, he barely obtained a Spark that could barely support the energy consumption of his current mechanical body.
Despite all this, the quality of the Spark within Sun Cheng was significantly lower than that of true Leader-level warriors like Optimus Prime and Megatron.
It was only now that Sun Cheng finally understood why Decepticons and Autobots had developed technology related to giant Devastators rather than directly cultivating their preferred Ancient Titans and Giant Fierce Beasts.
He suspected that even the Spark of a Leader-level warrior might not provide enough energy for such colossal beings. After all, in the ancient legends of Cybertron, during the first Cybertron Civil War, the appearance of three gigantic Ancient Titans, as towering as mountains, forced Autobots and Decepticons to cease fighting.
