Chapter 310: The Former Five Brothers

Xi Kai did not think about it for too long this time. Shortly after Xilin's "return" forum was established, Xi Kai contacted Xilin.

The agreed place was in the "disappeared" area of ​​Black Viper, but it was 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 in other words, Xi Kai. Home base.

When approaching this asteroid, Xilin felt a strong mechanical signal. It gave Xilin a strange feeling, a bit like Sigma, but it was very different.

"There is a big intelligent control center here, which almost controls the entire planet." The gray cat stopped "quarreling" in the forum. This planet makes the gray cat feel very special, and even has a friendly meaning. That is, that intelligence knew who was here now and showed emotion.

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

Most of the entire electronic star is mechanical, and human beings only have some personnel related to the Xi family.

"Welcome here, dear friends." A voice sounded.

This voice was conveyed through the communication system on the aircraft that Xilin was driving. It was very gentle, like a kind old man speaking with a smile.

"Who are you?" Gray Cat asked.

"My name is Kip. According to Xi Kai, you know Sigma."

"Huh? You also know Sigma?" The gray cat tickled its tail. Tilting his head and looking around, he didn't see any robot similar to Sigma. But the owner of this voice makes Gray Cat feel a lot like Sigma, quite a bit.

"We are old friends. Sigma and I are brothers, so to speak."

"Are you one of the five original robots?" Xilin asked.

"Yes."

Following the instructions displayed on the screen, the aircraft flew into a fortress surrounded by mechanical equipment. This fortress was like the center of the "spider web", and other mechanical bodies were distributed around this fortress.

After entering the fort, Xilin saw Xi Kai waiting there. There are two other people I don't know, they should both 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. Even the high-level executives of the Black Viper have not visited this electronic star.

"Where's Chip?" The gray cat looked around and asked impatiently.

Xi Kai smiled, "Come with me."

Signaling others not to follow, Xi Kai took Xilin and the gray cat to a large place inside the fortress. On the way, Xilin found that there are many access control, but there is no need to swipe the card or identity verification, the door will open automatically. As the gray cat said, everything here is controlled by an intelligent center.

When he came to this venue, the gate opened automatically, and Xilin followed Xi Kai into it, and it caught his eye. It is a huge mechanical body, with intricate circuit boards and connecting wires scattered everywhere, and somewhere above, there is a shining circular screen.

When Xilin and the others approached, the circular screen moved down until it was at eye level with Xilin and the others. A human face was displayed on the screen, the face of an old man.

"Nice to meet you."

"You are Kip?!" The gray cat squatting on Xilin's shoulder stood up and carefully looked at the human face on the round screen. "Why doesn't Sigma have a face?"

"It has it." The circular screen displayed Sigma's iconic "face" with blue light bars flashing, "This is it."

"Then why are you like this?" The gray cat raised its paw and pointed at the old face. "It just feels out of place."

Xi Kai next to him smiled wryly, not only because he was uncoordinated, but there was nothing he could do about it. If it wasn't for the remedial measures made later, even Chip would have disappeared.

Xi Kai didn't say too much this time, it was mainly Chip who explained to Xilin. Talk about the origin of the five robots and some things after that.

Five robots, just as Xilin thought, when the ancestors of the Xi family came over, they accidentally discovered a substance as the brain complex of the robots, and developed these five original robots.

Later, some things happened. When they came over, they encountered the rebel riots of the empire. Most of the people and robots died, and only a few survived. They met Lansa Freeman, who was excluded at that time, Freeman Provide shelter for them, and at the same time, jointly develop a batch of intelligent combat robots.

Since then, the few remaining Xi family members and four original robots have signed an agreement with Emperor Lansa, and then an organization—Black Viper—appeared in the empire.

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 many things that have so far remained a mystery.

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

Chip paused and sighed: "Later, the master erased a memory from us. We don't know what that memory is. The only thing I remember is that the master said that it was protecting the Xi family."

"The robot that disappeared was..."

"It's Sigma," Chip replied.

Xilin lowered his eyes. If it was Sigma, the memory that was erased should be about sending Sigma from here to the Star Alliance. Moreover, the people of the Xi family concealed the technology they knew, the technology that passed through two large galaxies!

"So, I want to ask, where did you meet Sigma? Maybe these are about the erased memory." Chip asked eagerly. It has been puzzled for nearly a thousand years, and finally heard about Sigma. As soon as Xi Kai told it, it made Xi Kai agree to Xilin's request.

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

Seeing that Xilin was hesitating, Chip added: "Not all the original robots whose memory was erased back then. I don't know if Sigma has had his memory erased, but Ayue definitely hasn't. Among the five of us, Sigma is the most Simple, and Ah Yue is the most capable of pretending to be stupid, and I only found out later. Ah Yue has not been erased like us."

Ah Yue was not one of the two abolished original robots, but it was in a special state very early on.

In order to understand the brain complexing substance, the descendants of the Xi family destroyed the two original robots. Chip was also almost abolished. If it hadn't been for a remedy later, Chip would not have become like this. Then, after Chip's accident, Ah Yue entered a forced dormancy period, and no one could wake him up. Moreover, Chip no longer allowed the later juniors of the Xi family to use Ah Yue for research. Even if they can't make another original robot, they won't allow them to destroy Ah Yue.

Ah Yue had a chat with Chip before going into forced sleep. Only then did Chip know that Ah Yue knew much more than them, and it was precisely because he could play dumb that he could keep more secrets, so that the master could tell him the secrets at ease.

Even the Xi family couldn't force Ah Yue to do research. Many people tried to wake Ah Yue up, but none of them worked, including Chip himself. Ah Yue seemed to have closed himself off, unwilling to contact the outside world. unwilling to communicate with the outside world.

"Where is Ah Yue?" Xilin asked.

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

Following Chip's voice, a light screen appeared in front of Xilin and the others. A robot similar to Sigma was displayed on the light screen, but it lay there quietly without any response.

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

What Xi Kai cares most is not what the disappearing Sigma did back then, but how to make the original robot. And he didn't think that Xilin could wake up Ah Yue.

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

Xilin frowned and looked at Chip's huge body, and said, "I want to know what exactly is the brain complex you mentioned earlier?"

Xi Kai shook his head, "As I said, we haven't figured this out for nearly a thousand years, and the two and a half original robots who sacrificed two and a half are only aware of part of it."

Xi Kai nodded towards Chip, and an image appeared on the light screen. This is a spherical crystal, not a real sphere. It has a core, and then countless branches protrude from this core. Each branch They are all oddly shaped, very complex fine crystal columns, and these fine crystal columns seem to cover the core with a thick layer of "fluff".

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

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

Xilin was distressed, what should I say? How could it be this!

"I've seen it by chance before, but this substance has been consumed, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to find it again."

"Consumed by..." 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?"

Xilin shook his head and remained silent. The gray cat doesn't look very well at Xi Kai, it's full of hostility, it has destroyed two and a half of the original robots, and now it wants to call Xiying's attention? !

What Xilin is worried about now is that if it is true what Xi Kai said, Xiying's thinking range will be wider than he expected. After leaving the Star Alliance for such a long time, will Xiying go astray now? If he develops in a wrong direction, it is very likely that a robot storm will be set off.

Xi Kai was about to continue asking, but was stopped by Chip. Maybe Xi Kai didn't feel the hostility shown by the gray cat clearly, but Chip was very profound, so it changed the topic.

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

Xilin nodded and tried it, but he could only start with it.

Chip opened the flash door, and inside was Ah Yue who was forced to sleep.

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

Unlike human beings, human beings can still feel the breath of life when they are dormant, but this kind of robot stays here quietly like a hidden antique, without any life.

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

For hundreds of years, among the five brothers who used to be, only Kip is guarding this place. The other four are ruined, missing, and dormant. Even though they are not real people, their thoughts and emotions are similar to those of human beings. Almost, I will be sad and miss, and what has settled down through the years is more helpless.

After Chip's voice fell, Ah Yue didn't respond at all, just like before.

Xi Kai watched from the sidelines, but he still had no hope. If it was possible, the people of the Xi family would have awakened it over the years, so why wait until now. Ah Yue is like refusing to open it, refusing anyone. Xi Kai has always wondered whether those ancestors frightened the original robot when they did research on it, so they closed themselves up. Are robots so emotionally vulnerable?

After Xilin looked at it, he didn't say anything, but flicked the ear of the gray cat, and nodded his chin towards Ah Yue.

The gray cat jumped off Xilin's shoulder, walked around Ah Yue, and then ran up to Ah Yue's head and raised its paws to pat, touch here, and look there.

This is a silent conversation process, completely using mechanical language to communicate, just like the mechanical language that Gray Cat used when communicating with Sigma back then.

Although it was silent, Xi Kai could feel it a little, but couldn't fully understand it, while the eyes of Chip's old face became 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, all about Sigma, but it didn't mention that they came from the Star Alliance, because Kip could understand it, so, at least not yet Say too much.

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

After the weak feedback information, the mechanical signal also began to increase, and even Xi Kai could feel that the robot that had been dormant for a long time was slowly "coming alive".

When that blue light strip flickered, Xilin knew that the gray cat had succeeded. Sure enough, no matter whether it is a human or a robot, it needs to be moved with emotion and reason, otherwise it will continue to act stupid there as if it doesn't know anything.

The blue light band gradually strengthened, and after a few changes, Ah Yue suddenly turned over and retreated several meters away, and then a childish voice, full of doubts and panic: "You... who are you?!"

Chip's old face froze on the circular screen, Ah Yue was playing dumb again. (to be continued)
