Shadow of the Beautiful World

It's running, Merlin! To the northeast, very fast!

The sound of flying over the mountain kept ringing through the communicator, and Merlin, who was flying in the sky, had to change direction again.

But his flying speed is limited faster than ordinary birds. According to the speed of the Cybertronians galloping on the ground, Merlin has no chance of winning in the straight-line chase.

The agent flying in the sky estimated the distance between himself and Fei Guoshan, and he decisively called out his guardian spirit.

Accompanied by a slightly hoarse cry, the dark red raven burst out of the light, flapping its wings and flying around Merlin.

Victor, fly to investigate at the fastest speed!

Merlin issued an order to his guardian spirit, and the raven with energy body folded its wings and rushed forward like an arrow leaving the string. The speed of Victor, the spirit of the raven, is very fast. It has no entity and is not subject to air resistance. In theory, the flying speed of this bird can easily exceed the speed of sound, provided that Merlin has enough magic power.

He shared the vision with Victor, and soon, in the vision of the Raven Spirit, Merlin found Fei Guoshan and a yellow Beetle chasing along a seaside road, and they were both very fast.

Merlin decisively changed direction in the sky, he planned to take a shortcut to intercept these two guys.

During the flight, Merlin questioned through the communicator:

What's going on? Fei Guoshan, didn't you say that you rebels can communicate with each other? Why is it running away from you like a ghost? Did you scare it?

The state of b-127 is not right.

Fei Guoshan replied:

I found it near the sea, and it was playing with the human girl.

Um?

Merlin also felt unbelievable. While calibrating his direction, he said:

If I remember correctly, you told me that b-127 was your best secret agent, and then it came to Earth, changed its temper, and started playing with human girls? Your Cybertronian character emotions Are they all this lively?

That's why I said it wasn't normal.

Flying across the mountain, while speeding up to chase the Beetle in front of him, he said to Merlin:

I sent it an identification command, and logically it should reply to me. But without it, it was as if it hadn't received it. I appeared in front of it and the girl, and they seemed frightened. It took that The girl ran away and I don't know what happened, but I have to figure it out.

Through the raven Victor flying above the two cars, Merlin clearly saw that the flying over the mountain continued to accelerate, and within a few seconds, he was parallel to the galloping yellow beetle.

They were shouting among themselves, in the language of the Cybertronians.

A few seconds later, the trunk of your yellow Beetle suddenly opened, an arm full of mechanical parts raised a fist, and punched the body of Flying Mountain, knocking Flying Mountain off guard. staggering.

The black muscle car lost its balance and was suddenly attacked by b-127, which changed the direction of flying over the mountain. The car rushed out of the fence of the seaside road and fell towards the cliff more than ten meters high.

However, the yellow beetle did not seize this opportunity to attack. On the contrary, after it succeeded in the blow, it accelerated rapidly, trying to escape from this place.

In the Beetle car, Merlin could still hear the girl's scream through the spirit of the raven.

This shows that there is indeed a human girl in that car.

Okay, I'm going to go.

Seeing that Feiguoshan will not be able to climb the cliff for a while, after all, it has lost an arm and is a disabled robot. Merlin shook his head, and he quickly appeared at the bend of the road below. On the road ahead of him, the low sound of the engine was already in his ears.

Raven Victor croaked and folded its wings, and landed on Merlin's shoulder. It and its master stared at the road ahead. A few seconds later, Merlin saw the beetle rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed. .

But he didn't move, but stood in front of the speeding vehicle, as if he was looking for death.

In the Beetle car, the human girl with white skin and brown wavy hair saw the man in the middle of the road, wearing a gray suit and carrying a handbag, and she immediately let out a scream.

No! Hornet, stop! You'll kill him!

B-127 also saw Merlin, but it didn't slow down. On the contrary, at the moment when it was about to hit Merlin, the rusty yellow Beetle quickly changed its shape, exactly the same as when it was flying over the mountain. , It turned into a robot within a second. With the kinetic energy accumulated by the fast running, its huge body jumped up, holding the girl in its arms, and wanted to pass over Merlin's head.

kuang

A few meters behind Merlin, the b-127 that landed quickly changed back to the appearance of a beetle, and it made a clear whistle sound, as if mocking Merlin.

But Merlin also let out a deep laugh, he was laughing at the Cybertronian behind him.

In Merlin's hands, the endless black mist was restraining the bewildered human girl, pulling her from the air to the ground. Just when b-127 jumped up, Merlin, who had been prepared for a long time, caught her precisely at that moment.

Don't be afraid, child.

Merlin looked at his side, the girl bound by the black mist and her mouth sealed was about 17 or 8 years old. He stretched out his hand and stroked the girl's hair with a frightened face. He looked at the beetle parked in the middle of the road in front of him, and said:

Trust me, I'm here to help you.

In front of Merlin, the b-127, who noticed that the girl was missing, quickly turned around in the center of the road, pointed the headlights of its car body at Merlin, and it let out a roar of unknown meaning, which seemed to be from the radio. The audio signal intercepted in .

It seems to be a demonstration.

And Merlin's fingers lightly placed on the terrified girl's neck, this action was full of threat. This made the mechanical warrior in front of him not dare to act rashly.

The two sides confronted each other for more than ten seconds. Accompanied by the low sound of the engine, Fei Guoshan, who finally climbed the cliff, also rushed to the scene.

It rushed from the other side, blocking the b-127's escape route.

Fei Guoshan cautiously and quickly transformed into a robot form. With its remaining left arm, it waved at the yellow beetle that kept receding in front of it, advising in the language of the Cybertronians.

Seeing Fei Guoshan start communicating with b-127, Merlin let go of the human girl, and he said to the girl:

The things between them, let's not get involved. Actually, I'm more curious about you, girl, how did you mix with the Cybertronians? And, how did you tame this car of?

Who are you?

The human girl's body was still restrained by the faintly visible black mist. She looked at Merlin with some fear. explain:

Let me go! Evil mutant!

No, I'm not a mutant, kid.

Merlin took out his ID from his pocket, put it in front of her eyes, and said:

I'm Agent Merlin, Level 5, S.H.I.E.L.D., and I specialize in dealing with paranormal events like yours. I just need some information from you, and then you can go, I mean, go home.

Merlin waved his fingers, and the black mist that bound the girl dissipated quickly. He said to the girl in a gentle tone:

Trust me, boy, normal people shouldn't get involved in stuff like this, it's just going to get you in trouble, big, big trouble that you can't handle yourself. Worse yet, getting involved in something like this , and probably your family, you have family, right?

So, you'd better answer my question honestly.

Merlin's tone was very gentle, but it was full of an inviolable strength. Coupled with his status as a public official, the human girl couldn't help but hesitate a bit. She looked back at the bumblebee that had turned into a robot and was communicating with that weird red robot, which was the b-127 Merlin was talking about, and then He looked back at Merlin.

After a while, the girl sighed, and she said to Merlin helplessly:

I don't know what's going on. My name is Charlie Watson, and I live in a small town. I'm just a high school student. I have some troubles that ordinary high school students should have. Mr. Agent, I don't know if you can find Bumblebee What, but I'm pretty sure it's a kind, um, kind alien, it seems to have lost its memory, and it's been acting like a baby for the few months I've picked it up.

She said to Merlin in a begging tone:

Really, I swear, bumblebees are no threat to our world.

Bumblebee?

Merlin savored the name, he raised his head and looked at the yellow Cybertronian standing beside Fei Guoshan.

It is shorter than Feiguoshan, about 4-5 meters. It has healthy limbs, but the metal shell is full of rust, which looks very miserable.

Compared with the anthropomorphic, square face of Flying Over the Mountain, the outline of b-127's face is much softer. Using an unusual word to describe it, b-127 looks like the face of the Cybertronians. Like the baby face of the old man, at first glance, it is very pleasing.

The most important thing is that there are two yellow antennas on the top of the blue-eyed robot's head, which are shaped like the tentacles of a wasp, coupled with its color scheme, and the sharp buzzing it emits from time to time.

No wonder Charlie called it Bumblebee.

It is indeed very apt.

Listen to me, Charlie.

Merlin looked down at the begging child, and said softly:

Whether your new friend is a threat to us is not about it itself. What I want to ask is, during the few months you have been with it, have other things happened, such as other mechanical life forms chasing you and the like of.

have!

Charlie clenched her fists, and she said to Merlin:

Those soldiers! They came to town 1 week ago and they told us that there was a military exercise nearby, but then I found out that's not the case. They were trying to catch the hornet, and I couldn't let it Stay at home, for a while, it has been living in the reef hole by the sea, you can see that its shell is rusted.

Is it just soldiers?

Merlin pursed his lips, he felt that things should not be so simple.

Whether it's the warnings flying over the mountains or the strange signals captured from within SHIELD, it proves that there should be Cybertronians lurking on the earth. But the question is, where are those mechanical life now?

Charlie, in the past few months, has your bumblebee sent out any weird signals to the outside world? I mean, in a language you don't understand.

Merlin asked.

The girl Charlie frowned, thinking hard. After more than ten seconds, she raised her head and said to Merlin with some hesitation:

Maybe once.

When I woke it up, it was lying in an abandoned garage by the sea, and I bought it from Grandpa Paulson for $100 as a 16th birthday present for myself.

Charlie said to Merlin:

The faint voice I heard the first time I turned its car key was the language of the robot that came with you, if I remember correctly.

When did that happen?

Merlin asked, Charlie thought for a while, and replied:

About four months ago.

4 months?

Merlin calculated the time and nodded.

The time is right.

Fei Guoshan told him that it got the news that the Decepticon faction sent fighters to the earth three months ago, that is to say, it should be that when the Bumblebee was awakened by Charlie, the message sent by accident attracted the tyrant among the stars. Tianhu's attention.

And judging from the time it took to fly over the mountain to the earth, the time for those Decepticon fighters to come to the earth should not exceed one month.

The soldiers of the Ministry of Defense arrived in the town a week ago, that is to say, they had just locked the bumblebee's activity area.

Whoa!

Just when Merlin wanted to continue asking questions, Victor, the spirit of the raven patrolling in the sky, let out a sharp hiss. Merlin raised his head, and in the vision he shared with the spirit of the raven, he saw , several military vehicles loaded with weapons were rushing out of the small town.

the Ministry of Defense

They must have some kind of special equipment to detect the signs of Cybertronian activity.

Merlin turned back and shouted at Fei Guoshan:

Take Bumblebee and Charlie and leave! The soldiers are coming, I will stay here to hold them back! Find a hidden place, we will contact later!

Fei Guoshan nodded, it quickly changed back to the shape of a black muscle car, and honked the horn at the Bumblebee that had turned back into a Beetle. Merlin sent Charlie into the interior of the Beetle, and he told the girl:

The situation is obvious now. I'm here to help you. And those soldiers are here to arrest your friends, so you'd better follow my instructions and protect yourself, understand?

Um.

Charlie nodded. She had already been involved in this incident, and it was too late to get out now.

Let's hope the young Hornet rider is safe from all this shit.
