"Hand over the fragment, unknown warrior. This is what Lord Fallen wants..."
Constructions' mechanical body was much larger than Forerunner's. Although his subtle movements were well-hidden, Constructions, looking down from a higher position, saw all of his reactions.
Constructions slightly bent over, his huge arms hanging down, and the shovel-like hands continuously opened and closed, showing his alertness.
This was not surprising. Although they were all Decepticons, it was their first meeting.
However, the Decepticons were a violent group that valued strength above all else.
Even powerful beings like Megatron couldn't subdue everyone. Inside the Decepticon army, ambitious individuals like Starscream were numerous, and it could be said that there were many factions.
When the Decepticon army was founded, it went through numerous bloody conflicts and internal wars.
The Mithril Sea Agreement, also known as the Treasoner Punishment Agreement, was an agreement signed by Megatron in front of Shockwave, forcibly making rebellious Decepticons at the Mithril Sea on Cybertron sign it. The two core clauses of the agreement were "Megatron has supreme authority over the Decepticon army" and "general conflicts are allowed, but Decepticons are strictly prohibited from fighting to the death without the Leader's permission."
After the Mithril Sea Agreement was introduced, although there were still many conflicts and contradictions among the Decepticons, there were at least very few Decepticons who dared to openly attack their own kind. Shockwave was not one to be trifled with; he had a ruthless and cruel executioner squad under his command, specifically tasked with dealing with Decepticons who violated the Mithril Sea Agreement.
Constructions seemed to have some concerns, but Forerunner remained unfazed. He had already entered battle mode.
He knew that it was their first meeting with Constructions and Sideways, and they probably didn't know much about him. This was his greatest advantage.
However, Forerunner was also aware of the power of his own weapons. Even if he launched a surprise attack just now, it would be challenging to heavily damage a massive figure like Constructions. So from the beginning, his target wasn't Constructions, but Sideways!
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Without giving them a chance to talk, right after Constructions' threat, Forerunner's missiles, which had already locked onto the target, were immediately launched.
In an instant, Sideways felt an indescribable sense of danger. He didn't care about his appearance anymore and instinctively dodged to the side.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two explosions followed immediately. Along with the explosions, there was a furious and agonized scream.
Forerunner's blue eyes slightly brightened as he instantly saw through the smoke and dust what was happening not far away.
Although caught off guard, Sideways had narrowly avoided one of the missiles. He was thrown a considerable distance by the air currents, but he wasn't seriously harmed.
The other missile that hit Sideways didn't achieve its full effect either. It only hit his left leg, causing the lower half of it to break off.
Such injuries weren't severe for mechanical lifeforms; at most, they would slightly affect their movement.
However, after confirming Sideways' condition, Forerunner's eyes lit up.
It was an unintended but ideal result.
"Damn it!"
Sideways was furious. After struggling to stand up, he supported himself with a nearby rock and shouted loudly at Constructions, "Constructions, kill him!"
"Damn!"
Constructions had also reacted at this moment. He glared angrily at Forerunner, deftly moving his massive tires forward, swiftly crossing over a few boulders. At the same time, one of his arms was raised high and then slammed down.
The terrifying shovel at the front, carrying a whistling explosive sound, came crashing down towards Forerunner.
Forerunner reacted quickly. Almost the moment Constructions raised his arm, Forerunner tightly coiled his mechanical body, agilely leaping backward for more than ten meters.
As soon as he landed and stood firm, Constructions' large shovel had already hammered into the spot where he had been standing just now.
"Boom!"
Rocks and dirt splashed, and smoke billowed.
As if a bomb had been detonated there, the terrifying force of Constructions' hateful strike created a deep depression in the area where the shovel had hit.
"Hey hey hey... Big guy, you want to kill me?"
Forerunner had dodged, but Rewind was still tied to a steel column with a chain.
When Constructions suddenly swung over, Rewind tried to dodge to the side, but he was still thrown into the air by the cyclone created by the terrifying shovel, and then heavily thrown back onto the ground.
Although he was unharmed, this experience had completely ruined his mood, and he quickly scolded loudly.
Constructions didn't even spare him a glance. Miniature Decepticons like Rewind didn't hold a high position in the Decepticon army.
Moreover, this big guy didn't seem as foolish as he looked. After taking a quick look at Rewind, he determined that Rewind and Forerunner weren't on the same side, so he didn't rush to deal with him.
"You damn bastard!"
Rewind was so angry that he shook his small arm. He had decided that after escaping, he would definitely report this to Lord Soundwave. Not only about the unfamiliar Decepticon who dared to kidnap him and treat him like a dog for several days but also about Constructions and Sideways.
Yes, as a backup member of the Cassette Legion that Lord Soundwave was interested in developing, Rewind had known their identities from the first moment he saw these two guys.
After all, massive figures like Constructions were too distinctive.
Although he hadn't experienced many battles, especially battles between Autobots and Decepticons, Forerunner had recently fought against several Decepticons sent by Starscream in North Dovinsk, so he had some combat experience.
Leap back, land, and not care about the shouts of Rewind beside him or the furious Sideways not far away.
The moment he stabilized himself, he quickly flashed to the side, taking only a few seconds to put a considerable distance between himself and Constructions.
Then, without waiting for the massive figure to approach, Forerunner's right arm reached down to his thigh.
Soon, a short, thick plasma cannon instantly separated from the outside of his thigh, held tightly in his hand.
The next moment, Forerunner raised the handheld cannon, aiming it at the dumbfounded and heavy figure not far away, and pulled the trigger of the plasma cannon.
