When they were about 40-50 kilometers away from the Hoover Dam, Sun Cheng, Forerunner, and Onslaught had to stop.

"We have a problem!" Sun Cheng said, his face serious as he retrieved a set of advanced insect detectors that he had sent out. "There are dense human patrol teams here..."

He projected an image of a temporary base composed of four U.S. National Guard transport trucks two kilometers away for Onslaught to see. Sun Cheng's reconnaissance detectors found that the closer they got to U.S. military bases like the Hoover Dam, the more patrol teams there were.

Although this military force was nothing to the three of them, even the newly born Forerunner could easily destroy them, Sun Cheng was concerned about the meaning behind it. The Americans had once again increased the defense of Sector Seven.

Onslaught glanced at the image he had projected and then turned his head. There was no emotional fluctuation on his face, but the flicker in his eyes said it all.

Although he was one of the few rational Decepticons, he was still as proud as most Decepticons. Now that he had a new weapon in his hands, he was naturally less cautious and more arrogant.

Sun Cheng frowned slightly but said nothing more.

Since the All Spark had been confirmed to be here, he had been paying attention to Sector Seven. Although he hadn't invaded or probed it again, he had left a backdoor in the ground control console of a military satellite and almost monitored the situation here every day.

According to the intelligence he had collected during this period of time, the U.S. government had strengthened the defense of Sector Seven for the third time since he had invaded it. The first time was a week after he invaded Sector Seven, when the U.S. government announced that their intelligence agency intercepted a report that terrorists were planning to blow up the Hoover Dam. They then sent a infantry battalion and an artillery battalion to increase their presence near the Hoover Dam. Through the U.S. spy satellites, Sun Cheng even found several groups of MIM-104 anti-aircraft missiles deployed nearby.

A week later, the U.S. Department of Defense transferred the National Guard's 119th Attack Helicopter Regiment, originally stationed in Trinidad, to Las Vegas, just a few dozen kilometers away from the Hoover Dam.

Sun Cheng thought for a moment and realized that he hadn't done anything recently. If it wasn't Onslaught, it could only be Blackout, who had not contacted him for a long time, or Starscream had made some big news and startled everyone.

He cursed inwardly and cautiously decided that if he came alone, he would turn around and wait for the situation to calm down. However, when he looked at Onslaught, he quickly dismissed the idea.

Onslaught had been plotting to get the All Spark for a long time, and after waiting for so long, this proud guy had even given him a reward. If he didn't show Onslaught the All Spark today, he knew what the result would be.

Therefore, he had to suppress his slight uneasiness and say, "Based on the feedback from the reconnaissance data, I have designed a relatively safe route that can bring us to a location about 15 kilometers away from the base. After that, we can only launch a strong attack!"

"It's not that complicated. Feedback the number of defense forces nearby to me!" Onslaught interrupted his plan calmly.

"Uh, okay!" Sun Cheng couldn't control him, so he wrinkled his brows and pointed his finger at Onslaught's head, transmitting all the U.S. military defenses detected by his reconnaissance detectors to him.

"The most troublesome thing is the human aerial power 100 kilometers away... Do you have more accurate coordinates?" Onslaught's eyes flickered and after quickly processing all the data, he lowered his head to ask Sun Cheng.

Sun Cheng nodded, "I do have them, but they are so far away..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Onslaught suddenly transform back into his super heavy truck form, and the dual-track rail gun on his back was raised high.

"Can you hit them?!" Sun Cheng was delighted and immediately agreed without waiting for Onslaught's answer, "I understand, I'll send you the data right away..."

After detecting the changes in the city of Las Vegas near the Seventh District through a spy satellite he had placed earlier, Sun Cheng began to pay attention to the area. So he had the temporary base coordinates of the 119 attack helicopter regiment and the 30th Air Force Squadron that later entered the area.

After quickly transmitting the data to Onslaught, he and Forerunner saw Onslaught adjust his position for a while, and the dual-track rail gun on his back began to charge, soon emitting a strong blue light.

The entire charging process lasted about five or six seconds. After the charging was complete, accompanied by a loud noise, the ground where Onslaught was located dropped ten centimeters, indicating the strength of the recoil.

"Boom!"

After firing a shot, with a slight adjustment of the muzzle and charging, Onslaught fired another shot, then adjusted and charged again. After firing seven or eight shots in a row, Sun Cheng saw that he had stopped. Onslaught did not transform back into his humanoid form, so he commanded, "Alright, let's go..."

Although he was very skeptical that those shots could really solve the threat from the U.S. Air Force in Las Vegas, Sun Cheng couldn't ask out loud. He looked at the huge recoil pit under Onslaught's body and nodded to Forerunner. Then he took the lead and transformed into the form of a Reaper drone, flying into the sky.

"I'll clear the way ahead..."

After leaving these words, Sun Cheng flew towards the nearest temporary base of the National Guard.

With his speed, he arrived at the base in no time. Suddenly, he received a ground communication warning, "Unidentified aircraft, you are currently in a military-controlled airspace. Please identify yourself and fly east to leave the military-controlled airspace... Repeat, please identify yourself and fly east to leave the military-controlled airspace..."

Core quickly captured the communication from the direction of the Hoover Dam dozens of kilometers away, and Sun Cheng immediately notified Onslaught, "Lord Onslaught, coordinates xxxx, xxxx, there are ground surveillance radars and several groups of Patriot anti-aircraft missiles nearby. Please destroy them..."

Soon, he saw thunder in the sky, and several shells containing terrifying energy flew towards the coordinates he had just reported, at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, with Onslaught's cooperation.

With the threat eliminated, Sun Cheng quickly locked onto the transport vehicles and guards on the ground, which had obviously spotted him, and launched a diving attack.

"Da da da..."

The sound of killing rang out for a moment.
