"This isn't right… something is completely wrong!"
The Decepticon staggered as it climbed back to its feet, its mechanical voice filled with disbelief.
"Your power shouldn't be this strong!"
The robot had been completely stunned by the beating Rorschach just gave it. If the thing truly possessed something equivalent to a brain, it probably would have short-circuited already.
"I don't believe it!"
With an enraged roar, the Decepticon pushed itself upright and charged toward Rorschach once again.
Bang!
The result was exactly the same as before.
Rorschach's fist smashed into the robot and sent it flying backward again.
"Ahem!"
The Decepticon coughed violently, and several loose mechanical parts clattered out of its mouth.
For the first time in its existence, the robot genuinely began questioning reality.
Was this really a human?
Weren't humans supposed to be weak creatures?
In the Decepticon's memory, humans were nothing more than fragile little insects.
The robot even started wondering if it was still dreaming.
Whoosh!
While the Decepticon stood there stunned, Rorschach had already leapt into the air again.
His body rose eight or nine meters high like a human cannonball.
Then he came crashing down toward the robot.
After suffering several brutal hits already, the Decepticon had learned its lesson.
This time it didn't dare to clash with Rorschach directly.
Instead, it rolled across the ground in an awkward motion to avoid the incoming attack.
Boom!
Rorschach's fist smashed into the street instead.
The impact blasted a massive crater into the ground.
Clang!
At that moment, a large blade suddenly unfolded from the Decepticon's arm.
Mechanical parts slid and locked together as the weapon formed instantly.
The robot gripped the blade tightly.
Its confidence seemed to return.
"Die!"
The Decepticon swung the massive weapon at Rorschach.
But before the blade could land—
A flash of red light appeared.
Tssst!
Two heat rays shot from Rorschach's eyes.
The beams swept across the robot's arm.
The effect was immediate.
Just like slicing through tofu, the entire arm holding the blade was severed cleanly.
"What?!"
The Decepticon's mind nearly exploded.
Lasers?
From a human's eyes?
Since when could humans fire lasers?
The robot was still stunned when another flash appeared.
Tssst!
Another heat ray swept past its head.
Thud.
The massive mechanical head dropped to the ground.
A moment later, the giant body collapsed beside it.
The Decepticon that had looked so terrifying just moments ago had now turned into nothing more than a pile of scrap metal.
Rorschach stared at the wreckage thoughtfully.
So there were still Decepticons on Earth.
That meant this world wasn't simply a Marvel universe.
But when he thought about it carefully, the idea wasn't that surprising.
The Marvel world already had a strong interstellar background.
The Skrulls and the Kree had both visited Earth. Star-Lord's father Ego was also an alien. Even Loki and Thor came from another realm.
And then there were Thanos's armies, not to mention the Eternals.
Compared to all those extraterrestrial forces, Cybertronians actually seemed relatively weak.
In fact, among all the alien civilizations in the Marvel universe, Cybertron might even rank near the bottom.
The Avengers probably wouldn't even need to get involved.
With that thought, Rorschach quickly pushed the matter aside.
A different question now occupied his mind.
Why had the system labeled the Decepticon as an "unextractable energy source"?
The idea of an energy source itself was easy to understand.
Transformers were mechanical lifeforms. Naturally, they contained powerful energy.
But why couldn't it be extracted?
After thinking for a moment, Rorschach came up with a possibility.
Perhaps it was because Decepticons were still considered living beings.
Maybe the system could only extract energy from non-living objects.
If that theory was correct…
Then what about the AllSpark?
The AllSpark and the Transformers were essentially the same type of energy system—only far more advanced.
If the AllSpark was a pure energy source, perhaps its power could be extracted.
Rorschach's eyes lit up.
The possibility seemed very real.
"System," he asked silently, "is the AllSpark an extractable energy source?"
As usual, the system ignored him completely.
No response.
Still, Rorschach felt more convinced the idea had merit.
Even if he couldn't confirm it now, it was definitely worth investigating.
But then another problem appeared.
The time period.
Rorschach began reviewing the plot of Transformers in his mind.
He remembered that the protagonist's ancestor had discovered the frozen Megatron somewhere in the polar regions long ago.
During that discovery, Megatron had imprinted a key set of coordinates onto the man's glasses.
Those coordinates eventually led to the location of the AllSpark.
But right now…
Trying to locate a pair of glasses from decades in the future was completely unrealistic.
Then Rorschach remembered something else.
In Transformers, both Megatron and the AllSpark were eventually stored inside the Hoover Dam.
Which raised an important question.
At this point in time, had Megatron already been discovered by the authorities?
Or was he still frozen somewhere in the polar ice?
Rorschach had no way of knowing.
As for the glasses belonging to the protagonist's ancestor?
That idea was even more impossible.
At this point in history, the main character of Transformers probably hadn't even been born yet.
His father might still be a child.
In other words, trying to locate the AllSpark in this era would be extremely difficult.
Very difficult.
Rorschach thought silently for a moment.
Then suddenly, an idea appeared.
If his own strength wasn't enough…
Why not borrow someone else's?
S.H.I.E.L.D.
That was the perfect option.
There was no reason to ignore such a powerful tool.
Besides, S.H.I.E.L.D. had always been extremely interested in unusual phenomena.
And there was another important factor.
This Decepticon had originally been disguised as Howard Stark's car.
That meant the entire situation could naturally involve Stark himself.
If the matter were handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D., everything would look completely legitimate.
No one would suspect anything.
"Perfect," Rorschach muttered quietly.
He immediately made his decision.
"Hey, Ryan!"
Rorschach turned his head toward the repair shop owner, who was currently hiding behind a corner and secretly watching the scene.
"Your shop has a phone, right?"
"Yes… yes!" Ryan answered nervously.
He didn't even dare look directly at Rorschach.
The terrifying display of power he had just witnessed had left a deep impression on everyone present.
Although Rorschach appeared calm and polite, to them he looked like some kind of unstoppable monster.
Rorschach ignored the man's fear.
He walked straight into the repair shop and found a telephone inside a small office.
Then he dialed a number.
Howard Stark's number.
When Stark answered, Rorschach briefly explained what had just happened.
"Rorschach… is what you're saying real?"
Stark sounded stunned.
"Wait there," he said immediately. "I'm coming right now."
Without wasting another second, Howard Stark began gathering people and heading toward the repair shop.
