Xi Kai didn't think about it for too long this time, and soon after the establishment of Xilin's "Return" forum, Xi Kai contacted Xilin.

The agreed location was in the "disappeared" area of the Black Viper, but a little far from the central area, where there was an asteroid almost full of electronic equipment and mechanical structures, and this asteroid was Xi Kai, or rather, the headquarters of the Xi family.

As he approached the asteroid, he felt a strong mechanical signal, which gave him a strange feeling, a bit like Sigma, but very different.

"There's a big intelligent control center here, and it's pretty much the entire planet." The gray cat does not continue to "quarrel" in the forum, this planet makes the gray cat feel very special, and even has a kind and friendly meaning. That is, the intelligence knew who was here right now and showed emotion.

Yes, emotions. Different from the rigid emotions of other robots, such emotions are more like those of humans, just like the standard of "original state" that Xi Kai said.

Most of the entire electronic stars are mechanical, and there are only some people related to the Xi family.

"Welcome here, dear friends." A voice rang out.

The voice was conveyed through the communication system on the aircraft piloted by Xilin, and it was very gentle, like a kind old man smiling.

"Who are you?" Gray Cat asked.

"My name is Chip, and I heard Sikay say, you know Sigma."

"Huh? Do you know Sigma too? "The gray cat hooks its tail. Tilting his head and looking around, he didn't see any Sigma-like robots. But the owner of this sound makes the gray cat feel a lot like Sigma, quite alike.

"We're old friends anymore. Sigma and I are brothers, so to speak. ”

"Are you one of the five protodroids?" Cillin asked.

"Yes."

Following the on-screen instructions, the craft flies into a fortress surrounded by mechanical devices, which acts as the center of a "spider web" around which other mechanical bodies are distributed.

After entering the fortress, Sirin saw Sikai waiting there. There are also two people I don't know, who should be from the Xi family. Except for these few people, the others are robots, robots that look similar to humans.

Since Xi Kai was able to invite Xilin here, it also showed his sincerity this time. Not many people have ever been to this electronic star, even the high-ranking members of the Black Viper.

"Where's Chip?" The gray cat looked around and couldn't wait to ask.

Xi Kai smiled, "You come with me." ”

Signaling that the others should not follow, Sikai led Sirin and the gray cat to a large place inside the fortress. On the way, Xilin found that there are many access controls, but there is no need to swipe the card or authenticate the door, and the door will open automatically. As the gray cat said, this is all controlled by an intelligent center.

When he came to this venue, the door opened automatically, and Xilin followed Xi Kai in, and it caught his eye. It is a large mechanical body, with intricate circuit boards and connecting wires scattered all over it, and somewhere above, there is a round screen that glows with light.

As they approached, the circular screen moved down until it was at eye level with them. A human face, the face of an old man, is shown on the screen.

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

"You're Kipp?!" The gray cat, who was squatting on Cilin's shoulder, stood up and looked carefully at the faces on the circular screen, "Why doesn't Sigma have a face?" ”

"It does." The circular screen shows Sigma's signature blue light bar flashing "face", "This is it. ”

"Then why are you like this?" The gray cat raised its paw and pointed at the old face. "It feels very incongruous."

Xi Kai next to him smiled bitterly, it was not only incongruous, but there was no way, if it wasn't for the remedies made later, even Chip would be gone.

This time, Xi Kai didn't say much, mainly because Chip explained Cillin's confusion. talked about the origin of the five robots and some things after that.

Five robots, the same as Xilin thought, the ancestors of the Xi family came over and stumbled upon a substance as the brain complex of the robot, and developed these five original robots.

Later, something happened, when they came over, they encountered a rebellion in the Empire, most of them died in humans and robots, and only a few survived, and they ran into Lansa, who was excluded at that time. Freeman, Freeman provides shelter for them, and at the same time, they jointly develop a number of intelligent combat robots.

Since then, the few remaining Xi family members and four original robots have signed an agreement with Emperor Lanza, and then, an organization has emerged within the empire, the Black Viper.

This is the same as what every head of the Xi family knows, and Xi Kai also knows this, but there is one thing he doesn't know, that is, when he met Freeman, there were only four robots! As for why, we have not yet found the answer. There are a lot of things that are still a mystery to this day.

Cillin was also aware of the problem, "When I met His Highness Freeman, why were there only four original robots?" ”

Chip paused and sighed, "Later, the master erased our memories of it. We don't know what that memory is. The only thing I remember is that the owner said that it was to protect the Xi family. ”

"The robot that disappeared is ......"

"It's Sigma." Chip replied.

Sirin lowered his eyes, if it was Sigma, the memory he cleared should be about sending Sigma from here to the Star Alliance. Moreover, the people of the Xi family concealed the technology they knew back then, the technology that passed through the two large galaxies!

"So, I want to ask, where did you meet Sigma? Maybe that's about the erased memory. Chip asked, somewhat eagerly. It had been puzzled for nearly a thousand years, and finally heard about Sigma, and as soon as Sikai told it that it had made Sigmar agree to Sigma's request.

Originally, Xilin came to prepare for a showdown this time, but who knew that this guy didn't know that the people from the Xi family were not from the Lansa Empire. Or rather, they would have known. It was only later erased from memory.

Seeing that Xilin was hesitating, Chip added: "Not all of the original robots that were erased of their memories back then. I don't know if Sigma has been erased, but Ah Yue certainly hasn't. Of the five of us, Sigma is the simplest, and Ah Yue is the best at pretending to be stupid, and I only learned later. Ah Yue has not been erased of his memory like us. ”

Ah Yue was not one of the two abolished original robots, but it was in a special state for a long time.

In order to understand the brain complex substance, the juniors of the Xi family abolished the two original robots. Chip was almost deposed, and if it hadn't been for the remedy later, Chip wouldn't have become like this. Then, after Chip's accident, Ah Yue entered a forced dormant period, and no one could wake up, and Chip no longer allowed the younger juniors of the Xi family to use Ah Yue to do research. Even if they can't build a single original robot, they won't be allowed to destroy Ah Yue.

Ah Yue talked to Chip a little before going into forced hibernation. At that time, Chip knew that Ah Yue knew much more things than them, and it was because he could pretend to be stupid that he could keep more secrets and let his master rest assured that he would tell him the secrets.

Even the Xi family couldn't force Ah Yue to take it out for research, and many people tried to wake up Ah Yue, but it had no effect, including Qi Pu himself. Ah Yue seems to have closed himself off, unwilling to have any more contact with the outside world. Reluctance to communicate with the outside world.

"Where's Ah Yue?" Cillin asked.

"Ah Yue has been in a forced dormancy period for more than 700 years."

With Chip's voice, a light screen appeared in front of Sirin and them, showing a robot similar to Sigma, but lying there silently, unresponsive.

Xilin was thinking about whether to try to wake up Ah Yue, maybe he could learn about the hidden technology from it, but Xi Kai interrupted his thoughts.

Sikay's main concern is not what the disappeared Sigma did, but how to make the original robot. And he didn't think that Xilin would be able to wake Ah Yue up.

"Xilin, do you think the original state robot can be reconstructed?" Xi Kai asked.

Cillin frowned and looked at Chip's huge body, and said, "I want to know what the brain complex you were talking about earlier?" ”

Xi Kai shook his head, "I also said, we haven't figured this out for nearly a thousand years, and the original robot that sacrificed two and a half is only partially known. ”

Sikai nodded at Chip, and an image appeared on the light screen, which was a spherical crystal, not a real spherical shape, it had a core, and then countless branches stretched out from this core, each branch was strangely shaped, it was a very complex thin crystal column, and these fine crystal pillars were like a thick layer of "fluff" for this core.

Seeing this image, Xilin's face twitched, and the gray cat also shook his beard.

Sensing the strange reaction of Xilin and the gray cat, Xi Kai was suddenly startled, "Xilin, have you seen this?!" ”

Cillin is distressed, how to say it? How could it be this!

"I've seen it by chance before, but this substance has been consumed, and I'm afraid it's hard to find it again."

"...... Consumed? Xi Kai felt that the blood that had just boiled was half cold, and then asked, "Is it used on robots?" Where are those robots? ”

Cillin shook his head and said nothing. The gray cat's eyes were not very good at Xi Kai, full of hostility, he had already scrapped two and a half of the original state robots, and now he still wanted to pay attention to Xiying?!

And what Xilin is worried about now is that if it is really as Xi Kai said, I am afraid that Xiying's thinking will stretch more widely than he expected. After leaving the Star Alliance for such a long time, will that guy from West Shadow go down the wrong path now? If he goes the wrong way, there is a good chance that he will set off a robot storm.

Sikai was about to continue asking, but was stopped by Chip, the hostility shown by the gray cat may not be clear to Sikai, but Chip is very profound, so it changes the subject.

"If you want to know more, you can try to wake up Ah Yue, if you can't wake up, we won't be able to help much."

Cillin nodded, let's give it a try, I can only start with it.

Chip opened the door of the warehouse, and inside was Ah Yue, who was forcibly dormant.

At first glance, it looks similar to Sigma, but the color is a little different from Sigma, but other than that, there is not much difference.

Unlike humans, human beings still feel the breath of life when they are dormant, but such robot people stay here quietly like hidden antiques, without any life.

"Ah Yue, I brought two friends over, and they said they had seen Sigma." Chip's voice rang out, full of emotion.

For hundreds of years, the former five brothers are now only one of Kipp guarding this place, and the remaining four are ruined, missing, and dormant, even if they are not real people, but their thoughts and emotions are similar to those of human beings, they will also be sentimental, they will also remember, and what has been precipitated over the years is more helpless.

After Chip's words fell, Ah Yue didn't react, as before.

Xi Kai watched from the sidelines, he still didn't have hope, if it worked, for so many years, the people of the Xi family would have woken it up a long time ago, why wait until now. Ah Yue, this guy is like refusing to turn it on, rejecting anyone. Xi Kai has always wondered if it was because those ancestors were scared when they were doing research on the original robots, so they closed themselves off. Are robots so emotionally fragile?

After looking at it, Xilin didn't say anything, but flicked the gray cat's ears and nodded his chin towards Ah Yue.

The gray cat jumped off Xilin's shoulder, walked around Ah Yue, and then ran to Ah Yue's head and raised his paws to pat, bumping here, looking there.

It's a silent conversation, and it's all about communicating in mechanical language, like the one used by Gray Cat to communicate with Sigma.

Although it was silent, Xi Kai could feel a little and couldn't fully understand it, while Chip's old eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and some complicated emotions flashed from time to time.

The gray cat was talking to Ah Yue, speaking in a specific mechanical language, talking about Sigma, but he didn't mention that they were from the Star Alliance, because Chip could understand it, so at least not yet.

As the gray cat talked, Chip felt that Ah Yue began to have a faint feedback of information, but it was all towards the gray cat, so it didn't know what kind of information Ah Yue was feeding.

After the faint feedback, the mechanical signal also began to increase, and even Xi Kai could feel that the long-dormant robot was slowly "coming to life".

When that blue strip of light flickered, Cillin knew that the gray cat had succeeded. Sure enough, whether it is a human or a robot, it needs to be moved by emotion and reason, otherwise it will continue to pretend to be stupid there and not know anything.

The blue band of light gradually intensified, and after a few changes, Ah Yue suddenly turned over and withdrew several meters away, and then a childish voice, full of doubts and horror: "You...... Who are you?! ”

Qipu's old face on the round screen froze, and Ah Yue, this guy, is pretending to be stupid again.
