Chapter 104 Goodwill from Cybertron
Chapter 104 Goodwill from Cybertron
"If you only fawn over one person, you're a simp; but if you can fawn over a whole group, you're a wolf warrior!"
For some reason, this sentence suddenly flashed through Huang Hong's mind. He quickly shook his head to shake off the mess of thoughts.
In the trading room, Huang Hong took out all the spoils of the trip to count and sell. After adding up all the miscellaneous items, he finally obtained 22 credits.
Huang Hong now has a total of 130 million credits, as well as ten high-quality blood ginseng plants and 65 units of Xiling worm brain fluid.
Whether it's high-quality blood ginseng or the brain fluid of the Breath Spirit Worm, they are both excellent treasures. Holding them will only increase their value, not decrease it, and they are also very easy to sell.
After handling these important matters, Huang Hong stretched and prepared to find a place to rest and relieve the fatigue accumulated from his adventures and battles in the wild.
Just then, a glint of light flashed in Xiaocao's electronic eyes, and it suddenly spoke: "Dear Mr. Hong, you have a communication request. Do you agree to the access?"
"A communication request?" Huang Hong asked. "Who sent the request? Could it be Andy?"
He hadn't been in the Paradise World for long, and apart from the humans in Anyue City, the only people he could really recognize were Andy and Wu Jie.
Because the latter clearly stated that he would stay in the Camo Caves for a while, Huang Hong guessed that it was Andy who was contacting him.
Xiaocao said, "Insufficient permissions; unable to obtain the relevant information."
Huang Hong frowned and said, "Connect it."
The little grass's voice suddenly transformed into a completely emotionless electronic tone: "Communication connection successful... Data connection complete... Permissions... Permissions... Change..."
Streams of data light spilled from the little grass, moving around the room as if forming a virtual net that locked the entire room shut.
Just as Huang Hong was on guard due to the unexpected turn of events, a deep metallic voice rang out: "My friend, please don't misunderstand, we mean no harm."
"You?" Huang Hong asked, "Who are you?"
The metallic voice said, "You should have heard of us; we come from Cybertron!"
Huang Hong's heart stirred, and he immediately recalled the scene he had seen in the metal mountain in the Beast Plains.
A war for a small AllSpark shattered space, scattering the remaining Cybertronian Transformers across the amusement park.
It's hard to say whether Huang Hong's encounter with the Cybertronian warrior was lucky or unlucky. Although he eventually managed to seize the AllSpark, he was targeted by the overlord of the Giant Beast Plains as soon as he arrived in Paradise World, and both of them eventually perished.
Huang Hong snapped out of his thoughts and asked, "So, what is the purpose of your visit?"
The metallic voice said, "Before you state our purpose, please answer one question for us."
Huang Hong remained silent, waiting for the other party to continue.
The metallic voice continued, "We found you in the vast sea of data. We discovered the aura of one of our unawakened clansmen on you. We wonder what your relationship is with that clansman?"
Huang Hong vaguely felt that this issue was important both for himself and for the other party in the communication.
He didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "You say you're from Cybertron? How can you prove that?"
The metallic voice paused, seemingly surprised that Huang Hong would ask such a question.
A moment later, Xiaocao pointed to a metal ornament on the table. With a flash of light, the ornament seemed to be activated, and with a series of "kuku kaku" sounds, it transformed into a small robot.
After letting the small robot move around freely for a while, the light on Xiaocao's hand flashed again, withdrawing the energy injected into the small robot, which immediately lost its vitality.
The metallic voice said, "This is a power unique to Cybertronians. However, due to the lack of the AllSpark, I can only temporarily activate the metal machinery and cannot make them our true people."
"I think that should be enough to prove our identities."
Huang Hong nodded slightly and said, "The clansman you mentioned who hasn't awakened should be my partner."
With that, Huang Hong summoned his Iron Man armor.
More power suddenly surged from the grass, and beams of light from its electronic eyes scanned the steel armor.
The steel armor displayed images, exactly what Huang Hong had seen in the metal mountain.
A moment later, the strange phenomenon subsided, and the metallic voice sighed, "It was him, M-52."
Next, Metal Voice explained the current situation...
When those Cybertronian Transformers were scattered throughout the Paradise World, some of them were lucky enough to soon encounter the Fortress Network.
Thanks to their unique characteristics, these Transformers' talents and potential were activated and expanded after coming into contact with the extraordinary technology of another world, and they quickly gained a foothold in the fortress network.
Today, Transformers occupy four of the top ten spots in the Fortress Network.
This sudden rise of a powerful force naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the existing forces. Even though they were all members of the fortress network, they spared no effort in vying for resources.
There were even instances where other mechanical forces actively attacked and eliminated Transformers that had not yet matured.
Since then, the Transformers have become increasingly cautious in helping their people, trying to keep new members away from conflicts from above until they grow up.
The Fortress Alliance Transformers already had a complete contingency plan for this.
Huang Hong then chatted with the Transformers for half an hour before leaving Wuyun Technology, thanks to the attentive service of Xiao Cao, who had recovered.
As for their conversation records, they were naturally erased by the Transformers using their high privileges.
In fact, Five Clouds Technology is a secret industry of the Transformers.
The next day at noon, Huang Hong woke up in his suite in the mission hall. He had slept exceptionally well.
Sleeping until you naturally wake up and counting money until your hands cramp up – that was Huang Hong’s dream!
The auction at Wuyun Technology is in the evening, so I'll head to the Apothecary Guild now to check on the results of the potion-making.
When Huang Hong arrived at the Apothecary Guild, Wendy had already been waiting at the door for a long time.
Led by Wendy, Huang Hong arrived at the living room of a private laboratory inside the Pharmacists' Guild.
Huang Hong didn't have to wait long before an elderly man in a white lab coat, dressed neatly but with a somewhat disheveled appearance, walked out of the laboratory.
Without any preamble, the old man excitedly shouted, "Hahahaha! I succeeded! I knew this would be right!! Hahahaha! I've pioneered a completely new method of potion making!!"
After gesturing wildly for a while, the old man finally calmed down a bit. He smiled at Huang Hong and exclaimed in a strange tone, "Oh, this must be our dear Mr. Hong. Thank you for your sponsorship, and because of this sponsorship, you will also receive a generous reward!"
"Just as I predicted, the concoction of the new version of the [Star Pulse Resonance Dew] potion was a great success, even more successful than I had envisioned. Of course, the main credit goes to my ingenious idea!"
After a boastful speech, Wally took out a vial of dark-colored potion that shimmered with starlight. The potion contained both the weight of the earth and the ethereal quality of the stars.
Wally boasted, "Just as I said, the new version of the [Star Pulse Resonance Dew] potion is even better than I expected. After my experiments, the efficacy is 30% higher than the original! Other aspects have also been improved to varying degrees."
"However, because I added more main ingredients and a specially formulated stabilizer, the duration of the drug's effects has been extended to some extent. It will take three months for it to be fully absorbed."
"Of course, this is not a bad thing. Slow-release of the drug also means that it can be absorbed more thoroughly. These are complementary."
After hearing Wally's words, Huang Hong frowned slightly. After all, what he lacked most right now was time. Even if he could accumulate the effects of the drugs by constantly taking them, digestion would still take time.
In comparison, Huang Hong wanted something more potent, something that could quickly push his strength to its limits!
However, Huang Hong soon had a new idea. Since he lacked time, he could find a spacetime echo with a high time ratio and a long stay time, so that he could make full use of his own advantages.
With this idea in mind, Huang Hong immediately recalled the information he had seen about spacetime echoes and quickly found two alternatives that met his requirements...
……
……
Rejoice! Jump for joy! The second high-dimensional game has begun!!
The two temporal echoes that appear in this chapter represent the direction the protagonist will choose next.

This choice will affect the protagonist's second career and some mid-game events, so please make your choice carefully.
It's okay if you haven't seen these two anime, because I've long forgotten the plot, and I won't follow the storyline. In fact, it won't have anything to do with the original plot.
