Chapter 363: Zero

The diplomatic ship of the Trileaf Pirates stopped on the main star of the Multi-Eyed Star System. They requested to negotiate with the leader of the civilization controlling the Multi-Eyed Star System. A large number of robots welcomed them.

The leading robot told them, “Welcome, Trileaf Pirates. I’m a diplomat of the mechanical race. You can call me Number 01.”

The captain of the Trileaf Pirates’ diplomatic team was shocked. He said in disbelief, “You… Are you an intelligent robot? How is that possible? Besides, why are you using an ancient human language?”

Number 01 said, “In your opinion, the mechanical race is not intelligent, right? However, God has already given the mechanical race intelligence. This language is God’s language. We actually call it God’s language.”

These robots looked very similar to humans, but the basic elements that constituted their bodies were silicon and iron. Their appearance also had a metallic texture, and some of them were not even humanoid.

After hearing what Number 01 said, the captain of the diplomatic team was shocked. He asked, “God? Are you referring to the omnipotent God in mythology? Or the God in religion? The God you believe in?”

Number 01 smiled and said, “God is God. He created us and gave us intelligence.”

Number 01’s answer did not answer the foreign captain’s question. He was very confused, but he did not ask again. His guess was that a very impressive scientist had created this group of robots and given them intelligence. In that case, it was not wrong for the robots to call the scientist God.

The captain of the diplomatic team said, “I’m a diplomat of the Trileaf Pirates. You can call me Phonology Blackleaf.”

Number 01 said, “According to my understanding, the Trileaf Pirates have three different last names: Whiteleaf, Blackleaf, and Goldenleaf. At the same time, there are three different races. Unless I’m wrong, they should be divided into ancient humans, universe humans, and Zergs, right?”

Phonology Blackleaf’s expression changed slightly, but he soon returned to normal. He then said, “To my knowledge, the ruler of the Multi-Eyed Race Star System seems to be an ancient human. We came to verify this. If that’s indeed the case, we can’t be considered enemies.”

Number 01 smiled and said, “That’s right. This is the information I advocated. My goal is to attract more descendants of the ancient humans. After all, the ancient humans created us!”

Phonology Blackleaf frowned. Based on this conversation, he could not say that Number 01 was a rigid robot. If he did not know better, he would have thought that someone was controlling this robot and making it talk to him. However, based on the current situation, this galaxy might be a trap meant to capture all the descendants of the ancient humans!

Phonology Blackleaf’s eyes focused. I have to determine if this is a trap. The fate of the Trileaf Pirates is in my hands!

Number 01 said, “Everyone, the banquet is ready. Our supreme commander is waiting for you. Please come.”

Phonology Blackleaf nodded and followed Number 01 and the group of robots. There were ceremonial guards on either side of the ship, and there were even robots playing music. However, the people from the Trileaf Pirates looked confused, as if they did not know what was going on.

Too much time had passed, and many cultures had lost their heritage.

When Phonology Blackleaf and the others arrived outside the palace hall, a powerful pressure swept over them. They could not help but kneel on the spot. However, the pressure came and went quickly. This powerful pressure only appeared for a moment before disappearing.

Blackleaf was terrified. At that moment, he felt his soul leave his body and knelt down uncontrollably.

What was this? Was this a show of strength?

However, at that moment, a cold female voice came from the hall. “After 15,000 years, haven’t any Legendary creatures been born among humans? No wonder they were forced to do this.”

Blackleaf could not understand what she meant. He could not help but ask, “Madam, what are you talking about?”

Phonology Blackleaf had felt the female general’s Epic-ranked pressure before but had never been in such a sorry state. He could not resist at all. Even his soul was trembling. If the pressure had not only appeared for an instant, he would have died instantly.

At that moment, a robot walked out of the hall. It was a female robot wearing gorgeous clothes, and her every move emitted an impressive aura. Number 01 lowered his head and said, “Your Excellency Supreme Commander, I’ve brought the diplomats from Trileaf.”

Phonology Blackleaf was a little surprised. Was this the supreme commander who controlled the Multi-Eyed Race?

However, the female robot said, “Everyone, I’m Number 0. You can call me Zero. I’ll be in charge of receiving you today.”

The female robot was different from the cold female voice. This made Blackleaf feel even more shocked. Who was the person who had spoken? Was it their God?

Number 0 said, “Please come with me. I will answer your questions one by one. However, I don’t know if the food will satisfy your appetite after 15,000 years.”

Phonology Blackleaf was confused. 15,000 years? Wasn’t that when humans had fled from Earth? Could it be… No, historical literature clearly recorded that no one had been left behind during the Great Relocation Plan.

Phonology Blackleaf followed Number 0 into the palace and walked toward a luxurious reception room that was filled with delicacies. This was all food that Phonology Blackleaf did not recognize. However, as soon as he smelled it, his tongue started moving and he swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

Phonology Blackleaf was not confused by the scene before him. He tried asking, “Did you bring all this food from Earth?”

Number 0 smiled when she heard the word ‘Earth’. She said, “Everything on Earth has been destroyed. These were created by an omnipotent God, just like the pigs, cows, and sheep on the table.”

Phonology Blackleaf, who was shocked, said, “Are you using the ancient language? I’ve learned it before, but my brain has no effect on these creatures. My historical literature is severely lacking. By the way, can you show us some of these extinct species? I’m very curious about them!”

Number 0 smiled and said, “Please have your meal first. After you finish your meal, I will take you to the ranch.”

Phonology Blackleaf regretted his rash actions. He had only one purpose for going there, and that was to find out if the civilization that controlled this Star System was the ancient humans. Was this a trap? He had to find out everything for the sake of the Trileaf Pirates and the future of the aliens and the Zergs.

Phonology Blackleaf calmed down and started eating.
