Within the Mars base, the Decepticon engineer stationed there, Adam, reported to Sun Cheng about their discoveries during an earlier exploration of Mars.

This finding immediately furrowed Sun Cheng's brows. "What cybertronian scripts have been found? Let me see them!"

Prometheus responded, and it was revealed that only two Decepticon engineers, himself and Adam, were in the first batch to arrive on Mars. Adam handled daily management, while Prometheus was in charge of technical matters.

After discovering possible cybertronian scripts on Mars, Prometheus had begun studying them in his spare time.

From his eyes, two deep blue beams were projected, forming a very realistic holographic image in front of them. The image showed two Decepticon Engineers, accompanied by a team of combat Robots.

These must be the exploration team Adam mentioned, positioned below a reddish-brown canyon cliff.

On the cliff in front of them, several lines of peculiar text were clearly visible. They somewhat resembled the common cybertron script used by current Autobots and Decepticons but seemed even more ancient and mystical.

"It's indeed cybertronian script!"

Sun Cheng nodded. Having once suffered due to his lack of understanding of cybertronian script, he had since devoted considerable effort to studying it.

After accidentally encountering Skyfire and delving into Skyfire's memory data, Sun Cheng could not claim to be an expert in cybertronian script, but he had gained significant insights.

The text his Decepticon exploration team found on the Mars cliff was genuinely cybertronian script.

After jotting down these lines, Sun Cheng began deciphering them.

Known on Cybertron as the language of the supreme Leader, one theory suggests the cybertronian script was created by the Thirteen Primes, filled with extensive encrypted information.

Another theory posits that it was a secret script created by the noble elders who led the parliament at the peak of Cybertron civilization, intended to facilitate communication among themselves.

Considering the acceptance among cybertronians, the former theory is more widely accepted, as even Skyfire believed so.

Each cybertronian script is a vast encrypted information packet, containing patterns, text, and information. Since few cybertronians understand it, its confidentiality is extremely high.

The decryption took Sun Cheng several hours.

As voluminous white smoke billowed from his head, the surrounding Decepticon engineers and other personnel stood trembling in anticipation, not daring to make a move.

It wasn't until Sun Cheng groaned, the blue characters dancing in his eyes abruptly disappeared, and he murmured incredulously, "Emperor Liege Maximo... Shadow Guardians... Ancient Titans... What secrets does the Solar System conceal? Why have the Thirteen Primes appeared here?"

"Master!"

Decepticon engineers Adam and Prometheus were beside him, hearing his low murmurs clearly.

However, they dared not ask or speak.

Sun Cheng, interrupted in his thoughts, looked up at them. "I need to rest."

"Prepare a rest chamber for me."

He suddenly spoke, then as if remembering something, he added, "Before that, prepare two large enough warehouses. I've brought a batch of equipment from Earth, along with ten Decepticon engineers, over two hundred technical officers and engineers, and fifty Decepticon soldiers. They're all currently dormant in Virtual Space, and I need to initiate the Space Bridge to release them."

Without delay, Adam and Prometheus acknowledged and contacted Artificial Intelligence to arrange two empty warehouses.

Sun Cheng first went to the warehouses to release the machines and dormant Decepticons he had brought to Mars within the Spherical Space.

After doing this, he entered the rest chamber prepared by Adam and began processing the information from the deciphered cybertronian script.

The discovery of cybertronian script on Mars surprised and astonished Sun Cheng.

He had sensed early on that Earth in the [Transformers Universe] seemed to have some special attraction to the Cybertron Planet.

In ancient times, Cybertron's Thirteen Primes had reached Earth.

Successive Pathfinders, and now the Autobots and Decepticons, were all drawn over the vast distance of several light-years to Earth under some unique attraction.

Sun Cheng certainly didn't believe this was all coincidence.

Compared to Earth, other planets within the Solar System seemed less notable.

Mars was one such planet. According to Sun Cheng's previous thoughts, although he felt that Pathfinders might have visited Mars long ago, its distance from Earth and lack of attention even from entities like Starscream made it presumably safe.

This was why Sun Cheng established Base Three on Mars!

Unexpectedly, a massive secret was hidden on Mars.

An ancient laboratory existed on Mars, more precisely, a lab of Liege Maximo, one of Cybertron's Thirteen Primes.

Liege Maximo was arguably the most mysterious among the Thirteen Primes of Cybertron.

On Cybertron Planet, legends about him were scarce.

Even the knowledgeable Skyfire had only heard that he betrayed the Thirteen Primes.

Sun Cheng had also obtained some information showing that Liege Maximo once instigated a duel between Megatronus Prime and his lover Solus Prime, leading to her accidental death. He had also been pursued by other Primus members and was forced to flee the Universe.

As for the authenticity of this intelligence, he made no comment.

But Sun Cheng was certain that Liege Maximo had visited the Solar System and even stayed on Mars.

The exploration team sent by Adam found cybertronian scripts on the rock walls that served as a warning.

They seemed to be left by cybertronians who once pursued Liege Maximo, intended to warn any successors who arrived on this planet and discovered their markings not to approach the forbidden area hidden within the mountain walls.

It was a laboratory once used by Liege Maximo, where, after his fall, he conducted horrifying and cruel experiments.

It was said that within that laboratory on Mars, there were extremely dangerous combat Machines created by Liege Maximo known as the Shadow Guardians. There might even be more dangerous entities inside, such as the Ancient Titans.
