Megatron: Wrong Way to Open It

"You are definitely not human."

"At the very least, you are not humans from this Earth—humans who have yet to leave the cradle of their homeworld."

Optimus Prime swiftly assessed the human warriors before him, whose presence had set off every danger alarm within him, and decisively reached his conclusion.

Although they had only just arrived on this blue planet, their understanding of Earth's human civilization already surpassed that of most humans.

Through the increasingly advanced internet, Optimus Prime had rapidly browsed through the developmental history of this young civilization.

It was an entirely ordinary, immature civilization. Humanity had not even unlocked the crucial technology of controllable nuclear fusion.

For an interstellar civilization, controllable nuclear fusion was practically a stepping stone. Only this truly "infinite energy source" could support a civilization's journey into the stars.

Chemical-powered rockets and spacecraft could, at most, operate near a planetary system.

How could such a civilization possibly create these powerful genetically enhanced warriors, along with power armor that even he found absurd?

Based on spectral analysis and material testing, Optimus Prime could say with certainty that even the plasma weapons on his body would at most scratch the paint on their power armor.

Yet their weapons could effortlessly tear apart the Autobots' metal bodies.

That alone meant that if they truly fought, one side would utterly crush the other in materials science.

Although Cybertronians could freely transform from vehicle forms into humanoid forms through transforming gears, and some Transformers could even complete triple or quadruple transformations—

Even humanity's heavy conventional weapons, such as howitzers and cannons, could threaten a Transformer's life. More destructive missiles could kill Transformers with ease.

"Sharp observation, Optimus Prime." Lox nodded, tacitly acknowledging his guess.

"We came from another universe, specifically
