Synopsis

Date Index 316.279 AU

Apelinq determines that Rodimus's "somewhat... unique physiology" is what made him immune to Megatron's plague. Using this information, Apelinq creates an inoculant that sufficiently counters the virus. With this cure in their possession, they are ready to begin searching for more survivors.

Notes

• Mentioned characters: Rodimus, Megatron

Continuity notes

• Apelinq confirmed Rodimus was somehow immune to Megatron's virus back in the previous chapter. It's revealed here that his immunity is rooted in his physiology, right down to the "low-band energy signatures" of his Spark. The implication is that this is in reference to his being a Matrix Templar, which was previously alluded to both in "VEHICON ALERT!" and in Journal 7. How exactly his being Templar makes him immune to the virus, however, has never been explained.
• Apelinq first started looking for survivors back in Journal 10.
