Chapter 18: Jarvis: I was here first...

“Hoo~”

“This is the last one.”

Young Master Leon let out a nervous sigh of relief, then with a thought, he tried to contain the Soldier Boy shield, which was produced by the system and repaired with extra materials, into the system space.

“Done!”

In the blink of an eye, the shield in Young Master Leon’s hand disappeared, contained within the system space that only he could view.

Now,

Young Master Leon completely understood.

As long as the general shape of the equipment is not changed, and perhaps some of the original parts are retained, it is completely feasible to upgrade the equipment produced by the system.

Thus,

The operability and convenience of the system space are much greater than before.

Young Master Leon thought to himself, various inspirations suddenly Surge out in his mind, but he temporarily suppressed them all, got on the Jet Glider, and prepared to set off for Gomera to visit and deliver warmth to the Terrorists.

At this moment.

The system’s prompt sound suddenly rang in Young Master Leon’s ear, and only then did he realize that it was a new day and he could sign in again.

“Question: Do you want to sign in today?”

‘System, I don’t ask for much, just give me an Emperor’s Steed!’

“Open!”

“Ding, today’s sign-in is complete. Congratulations to the host for obtaining ‘Arcee’.”

“Arcee: A female Autobot from ‘Transformers: Prime’.”

In the if-line, she lost all her cherished Autobot companions and her beloved human partner, drifting alone in outer space with a broken body and gradually ceasing to think. Beneath her cold and ruthless exterior lies a fiery and gentle heart. Due to various experiences, she yearns for an eternal partner who will never wear out.

Her Spark mutated during a long period of baptism, and driven by a certain inner desire, she awakened three transformations different from ordinary Autobots: Motorcycle Mode, Combat Mode, and Partner Mode.”

“Introduction: Sometimes the race of the partner doesn’t need to be too strictly defined, after all, people’s XP is free, isn’t it?”

“Explanation: Arcee is absolutely loyal and will never betray, but due to personal experiences, her emotions may occasionally fluctuate. Perhaps you need to give her a little more patience.”

“Arcee?”

Young Master Leon remembered that she was the only female member of the Autobot leader’s guard and also the absolute female protagonist in “Transformers: Prime.”

Tall, responsible, tough, kind, beautiful, and cool, she is probably the ideal type for most boys’ significant others. It’s hard for those who have watched “Prime” not to love Arcee.

It’s funny to say.

In his previous life, Young Master Leon spent a lot of money on Arcee in his youth.

It’s just that…

This Arcee in the if-line is too tragic, almost all the beautiful, strong, and tragic buffs are stacked. Which damned author made up such a story background?

And she even stopped thinking…

Could it be that this Arcee from the system’s sign-in has become a cyber-vegetable? Young Master Leon was a little worried, so he summoned Arcee from the system space.

However.

“What the f*ck?!”

“This pile of scrap metal is Arcee?!”

Young Master Leon was stunned as he looked at the dilapidated motorcycle in front of him, an Iraq war-damaged version with rust-covered paint that showed no trace of its original color.

No one would even want to buy this for scrap metal, because it’s already full of rust and has no recycling value.

“Arcee?”

Young Master Leon tried to call out.

“Zzzzz!”

“Crackling!”

As Young Master Leon called out, Arcee’s only remaining headlight began to flicker, but after a sound of a short circuit, that last headlight also burst with a bang.

Arcee seemed to have completely died.

“……”

Young Master Leon fell silent.

For the first time, he began to suspect if the system was doing this on purpose. Signing in is one thing, but giving him such a dead end? At least give him a chance to save her.

‘System, say something!’

Young Master Leon cried out in his heart. If he could, he would naturally want to save Arcee, considering it a redemption for the countless lives he had killed in his youth.

“Warning: Arcee’s static balance in hibernation has been broken. Her Spark will extinguish in 25 seconds.”

“Hint: If the host wishes to extend Arcee’s life, please place her Spark into any energy-sufficient motorcycle before then.”

As the system’s voice fell.

Arcee’s broken motorcycle body began to tremble continuously, seemingly a precursor to her complete collapse.

“Spark?”

“Where is her Spark? Tell me!”

Like a midwife performing her first delivery, Young Master Leon fumbled in a hurry, but as soon as his iron hand touched Arcee’s body, she clattered and fell apart into a pile of true scrap metal.

“Oh dear…”

“I’m sorry…”

Just as Young Master Leon thought all was lost, a spherical energy body with a blue-purple core and a faint pink glow emanating from its periphery separated from Arcee’s “corpse.”

This scene was exactly like Ultron’s birth.

If not identical, then it was identical.

Under Young Master Leon’s surprised gaze.

Arcee’s mutated Spark seemed to require no external help, automatically dispersing and expanding into a spherical information neural network unit and projecting itself through the air towards the closest motorcycle.

Which was Young Master Leon’s mount—the Jet Glider 2.0.

As Arcee’s mutated Spark fully integrated, a blue-purple Arc flashed across the Jet Glider’s body.

Immediately after.

Several cool blue-purple patterns were symmetrically added to its originally entirely silver-black body, and some gentle pink girlish embellishments were also added to the inside of the cockpit, which is generally invisible to outsiders.

Now.

It should be called Jet Glider 3.0.

No.

It should be Jet Glider Arcee.

An excited heart, trembling hands.

Young Master Leon was about to greet the reborn Arcee when he heard Jarvis’s slightly resentful voice from his Bluetooth headset.

“Young Master Leon, I’ve been kicked out of the Jet Glider’s vehicle system by an unfamiliar intelligent AI.”

“Do I need to report this to Mr. Stark?”

“No, no, no!”

“The intelligent AI that kicked you out is my doing. You absolutely must not tell Tony now. I want to give him a big fright… oh no, a surprise!”

Young Master Leon said excitedly.

“Alright…”

Because Young Master Leon was too excited at this moment, he didn’t notice Jarvis’s disappointment at all: I was here first…

“Hey, Arcee, Partner Mode.”

Young Master Leon commanded.

“Command error.”

“Huh?”

“Then… Combat Mode?”

“Command accepted, transforming to Combat Mode.”

A mature, emotionless female voice emanated from Arcee’s vehicle interior. Young Master Leon heard it for the second time and finally felt that something was off.

Why did Arcee’s voice sound more AI than Jarvis, a true AI?

No way…

Young Master Leon vaguely felt something was amiss.

Accompanied by a series of clanging transformation sounds, Arcee quickly demonstrated Cybertron’s famous black technology—Cybertronian Compression Technology—in front of Young Master Leon.

She transformed from a regular car-sized motorcycle mode, defying scientific principles, into a tall, long-legged, slender-waisted, melon-faced female Transformer warrior, appearing to be two meters tall.

Like an enlarged female Iron Man suit, or like the Avenger Jaeger, the medium-sized Arc Reactor that served as the Jet Glider’s power source was embedded in the center of Arcee’s chest, seemingly becoming her heart.

Because the height of this indoor hangar was insufficient, she could only face Young Master Leon in a kneeling position.

“Hello, Arcee, I am your new partner, Leon.”

All unreasonable factors would be compensated by the system, so Young Master Leon called out Arcee’s name without any psychological burden and extended a friendly hand towards her.

“Hello, Leon, I am the Jet Glider, codenamed Arcee. It is an honor to serve You.”
