Electromagnetic pulse weapons were to Cybertronians what biological weapons were to humans.
Just as humans possessed cells, Cybertronians had tens of thousands of various electronic components within their bodies.
The powerful electromagnetic waves released by EMP weapons were harmless to humans, but to all kinds of electronic components that were highly sensitive to the outside environment—especially radiation—they were no different from being thrown directly into a brazier or a vat of strong acid. They could easily be damaged.
For Sun Cheng and his faction, who possessed no nuclear weapons and had yet to advance their technological tree to a sufficient level, EMP weapons were undoubtedly the strongest weapons currently at their disposal.
When dozens of EMP bombs exploded one after another across the battlefield, the terrifying electromagnetic waves instantly made every Decepticon within the area feel as though they had fallen into hell.
Cries of agony rose and fell, some from the Combaticons, but more from the warriors under Sun Cheng's command.
The EMP bombs launched from outer space by the Golden Eagle Fighter Ship did not distinguish friend from foe.
Dozens of EMP bombs covered several square kilometers of the battlefield, so when those missiles detonated, Sun Cheng and the Decepticon warriors under his command were also within the bombardment zone.
Sun Cheng, Thunder, Frenzy, and the other Decepticons at elite warrior rank or above were one thing, but the dozen or so remaining senior Decepticon warriors, though their bodies had also been reinforced against electromagnetism, ultimately could not escape the Cybertronians' innate weakness.
Thus, when dozens of EMP bombs detonated, the violent electromagnetic waves they unleashed inflicted almost as much damage on them as they did on Bruticus.
Within the chaotic electromagnetic storm, one Decepticon after another struggled like travelers fighting for survival in a tempest—furious, terrified, and
