102 Chapter 103: The Beginning of Greatness
In the vast, dark, and radiant expanse of space, stars flickered. The crimson rays of the rao(krypton's sun) still illuminated the remains of Krypton's explosion, casting a blood-red light onto the edges of the radiation nebula, where dust and debris had gathered, creating a gruesome and eerie spectacle.
H'el forcefully shook the accumulated ash and dust, creating a massive ring as waves of dust were rapidly pushed outward.
Controlled by H'el, the AllSpark expanded to a size of one thousand kilometers, and its surface began to shimmer with arcs of electricity. These arcs twisted and writhed like mating snakes, crawling across the surface, full of life.
*Boom!*
The interior of the AllSpark opened, and the surface arcs intensified. A beam of energy, a kilometer in diameter, descended directly onto the partially completed cosmic mothership below, crashing into its thick steel armor.
"Let the transformation begin, Zero," H'el said, his gaze filled with anticipation.
The seemingly ferocious and surging energy beam did no harm to the steel armor. Instead, it carried transformative energy information that infiltrated the steel, converting it into metallic cells.
Before the mechanical components throughout the ship had developed consciousness, Zero, through the keyhole on the central control console of the mothership, immediately made contact with this immense energy and information. It began to take charge, connecting energies and transforming the cosmic mothership.
The entire partially completed cosmic mothership started to emit arcs of electricity on its surface, undergoing a profound transformation from the inside.
The central platform of Cybertron, approximately one thousand kilometers in size, directly followed Zero's blueprint-like transformation. The metal moved with clanking sounds, reshaping itself into a form suitable for H'el. It adopted the design proposed by Zero, with a powerful command room and an emergency detachable control center. Countless energy conduits and pipelines began to emerge, connecting various parts.
The energy information spread like an electric shock, guided by Zero to the energy converter. The entire energy converter trembled incessantly, as if it desired to evolve into a living being. However, with Zero's conscious presence, it could only manifest as an organ, generating electrical arcs as it flowed seamlessly.
The changes were incredibly swift. The energy converter eventually quieted down, allowing Zero to control it effortlessly.
Following this, the stellar engines began to change, moved by Zero to the central position where they would become the core of the mothership, providing energy to the ship.
The energy converter, now acting as a secondary engine, began its energy control operations in sync with the stellar engine.
Countless metallic mechanisms transformed into vein-like energy conduits, hidden within the metal walls, facilitating the transmission of various types of energy.
The three-hundred-kilometer-wide Star Turbine, with the ease of a fish's tail, autonomously "swam" to the appropriate position and connected to the energy transmission pipelines.
Several bio-decompression chambers, material compressors, liquid cylinders, and heat-melting spaces functioned like human digestion, breaking down materials. They would eventually pass through an energy converter to refine the elements required by Zero.
The colossal munitions factory's multifunctional assembly line was completed and set into motion. It began producing various types of ammunition, energy firearms, and particle weapons for various situations.
The cosmic mothership started folding in on itself like paper, with arcs of electricity flashing across its surface. The massive mechanical components rhythmically adjusted, expanded, and contracted. The mothership rolled itself into the shape of a planet.
Various ground weapon bases on the planet's surface began transforming into towering buildings.
Finally, the Stellar Harvester was disassembled by Zero into a combined metal form. It was transformed into a five-layer atmospheric barrier equipped with warning systems, stealth systems, energy shielding systems, and the ability to absorb cosmic radiation energy. It became a radar system for external space detection, physical mimicking stealth, radar invisibility, and a series of self-circulating functions.
At this point, the 5,000-kilometer-radius metal planet, Zero's Dominion, had completed its transformation into a Cybertron.
Suddenly, the entire Cybertron began to tremble, accompanied by the sound of clanking. The metal's resilient cells continued to operate as the mothership's head extended from beneath the planet, revealing decks covered by superconductive glass domes. The living areas were retracted into the abdomen, and the surface metal buildings transformed and retracted underground, becoming smooth and thick armor. Multiple propulsion systems, large and cumbersome, were arranged on both sides of the planet and resembled flame-like wings when activated.
Zero transformed directly into a colossal cosmic mothership, measuring 12,000 kilometers in length, 9,000 kilometers in height, and 8,000 kilometers in width, presenting itself before H'el.
"This is the foundation where my great journey begins!" H'el exclaimed, his eyes filled with the desire for conquest and an unstoppable ambition.
He couldn't wait to rush to Earth and resolve all the issues brought by Jor-El, accompanied by his interstellar fleet, to conquer the vast universe.
Zero's transformation was truly breathtaking.
The beauty of machinery was evident in every aspect of the transformation. There was no excess, just swiftness, precision, and the mechanical resonance that filled the cosmic mothership with an overwhelming sense of war. It was a romantic presence in the endless expanse of space.
"Zero, third form," H'el stood tall in the cosmos, a smile on his lips, and a proud tone in his voice that he couldn't suppress.
"At your command, master."
Immediately, the cosmic mothership began its third transformation.
The mothership's head split open with clanks, revealing a colossal mechanical head. The thrusters on the sides partly retracted into the shoulders, while some became his hand propulsion units. Legs extended from the bottom of the mothership, and the Star Turbine appeared on his back. Various weapons were concealed beneath thick armor.
The third form - a Transformer - didn't expose as many mechanical lines and components as in the movies. Instead, Zero's Transformer form had thick, smooth armor. Overall, it resembled a mechanical body like a Gundam.
With a height approaching ten thousand kilometers, the slightly dark-golden colossal mechanical body had white glowing eyes on its head, shining like a dazzling science fiction spectacle in the cosmos.
"This... this... this..."
Sylvia stood beside, her mouth forming an 'O' shape, her eyes almost popping out. She was utterly stunned by the sheer spectacle.
It took her a while to recover.
"Is this... a metal life form? It's just... so... sci-fi!" She exclaimed, her mind still replaying the fluidity of Zero's transformation and the colossal humanoid mechanical body in front of her. Her eyes were filled with admiration for this magnificent science fiction life form.
Even though she had a deep love for biology, she couldn't help but appreciate the mechanical charm this being exuded.
Especially since this mechanical body was, in essence, a form of life, it possessed an unparalleled soul.
After admiring for quite some time, H'el finally commanded Zero to revert to its planet form, and together with Sylvia, they entered Zero's Dominion.
