The "Bad Habit" of Energy Lifeforms

Staring at this "little bumblebee" that looked like a shrunken version of a bumblebee a hundred times smaller, the senior engineer, after a brief moment of bewilderment, got straight to the point. "Who's your mother?"

"My mom is Venus, machine number 000031," 'Little Bumblebee' said matter-of-factly.

"So, you mean I slept with your mother?"

"From a technical point of view, that's how it is."

"Oh, I see," the senior engineer said with a look of sudden realization, then suddenly swung his leg, slamming the palm-sized robot to the ground. "You're kidding me. My reproductive system doesn't have the compatible plug-in for mechanical life yet!"

"From a technical standpoint, this is impossible!"

"Oh, Father, you can't go back on your word! Mother Venus's fire was once copied and given to you, you know."

"Ha??"

Looking at the skeptical gazes of those around him, especially the Cybertronian robots, the senior engineer suddenly realized something: from a technical point of view, this seemed to be a real possibility.

Cybertronian robots, or more accurately, Spark robots, are a type of half-energy, half-mechanical being. They possess not only the mechanical aspect but also the energy life aspect. This is something few people in the planetary civilizations know about, but it is quite famous in the universe—that energy species are notorious for their promiscuity.

Their targets are intelligent life on various planets, super AIs in various virtual worlds, or even mechanical life.

This is due to some characteristics of energy life forms. Most of these powerful individuals are born from the universe, and very few are born from civilizations. This also means that their ethical and moral concepts are very rare, even less so than those of robots. At least mechanical civilizations occasionally point out a super xenophobe or a determined exterminator.

Energy life forms do this out of evolutionary instinct. They are very willing to interact with various intelligent species in order to generate various higher-level chemical reactions and give birth to new "energy particles". This is their evolutionary path.

The 'Fire Seed Machines' inherited this aspect of energy life. Therefore, although they look down on most life forms on this planet, they are still willing to give up a portion of their fire seed to nurture higher-level offspring in order to nourish themselves in return for higher-level beings.

The high-level engineer's biological body clearly met this requirement. Cybertronian robots aren't stupid; they could naturally see the powerful biological aura emanating from the other party.

Venus?

"That beautiful Lady Rokugo?"

How could she possibly be with such a lowly creature—

"It's hard to say. Wasn't that person just transferred from underground?"

"Damn it! Our mechanical goddess!"

'...'

Venus

With the instinct of an experienced driver, the senior engineer immediately confirmed the other party's identity. Wasn't this the leader of the faction that he had messed up during the battle with the android A?

Conspiracy! A huge conspiracy!

Seeing the hostile looks from the robots around him, the senior engineer immediately realized that it was a case of tit for tat, and the other party's revenge was coming!

In the marriage concepts of Cybertronian robots, first marriage is not encouraged. On the contrary, female robots who have many children and strong offspring are more likely to be appreciated by their own kind.

The more powerful the cybernetic robot, the more developed its reproductive system (mechanical).

Indeed, every Cybertronian robot possesses the qualities of a shrew and the ambition of a hero, and eliminating the ex-husband and becoming the current one is undoubtedly what the Cybertronian robots are most passionate about.

As a fellow Cybertronian robot, Tianwei was undoubtedly aware of the nature of his kind, so he quickly coughed and said, "Well, now that the Golden Law has been successfully replaced, what happened before was clearly a misunderstanding. Why don't I escort you all away?"

He noticed that many similar electronic eyes had turned green.

No one objected. Both the fortress group and the deep web group were severely injured this time. Xiao Yuanjun was seriously injured by Cybertron's defense system, while the leader of the deep web inexplicably became a father.

So hurry up and leave, or who knows what kind of messy things might happen next.

As for the person in charge of Tianwei, it is clear that he does not want to escalate the conflict, whether it is the Fortress side or the Deepnet side.

After the group left, many of the robots whispered among themselves, while the electronic eyes of the "Little Bumblebee" blinked a few times, and its electronic voice changed back into a fawning child's voice, reporting over a live connection.

"Mother, I have done what you asked me to do."

All the way to the interstellar train, Tianwei, this mechanical saint, kept babbling on and on, basically saying that the human species cannot be scumbags, and that once you sleep with someone, you have to take responsibility, even if the other person is a robot. However, the senior engineer shut him down with one sentence.

"You mean you want me to take over?"

"Uh—" Tianwei paused for a moment, then said righteously, "How can you call it taking over a robot's plate? Don't you want to pilot a Gundam?"

Piloting a Gundam?

Thinking of Venus's curvaceous mechanical body, its intricate energy circuits, its complex and mysterious integrated algorithms, and its various advanced mechanical components, along with the warm and powerful Flame Energy Chamber, imagine installing a cockpit on the Flame—that would be amazing!

Why does it suddenly look so tempting?

"Damn, trying to tempt me!" The senior engineer gave the other party the middle finger without hesitation. "If you want me to take over, I'll at least make sure I have ten times more ships than them!"

"Please think about it seriously!" Tianwei pleaded earnestly.

"Stop talking nonsense, give me your contact information!"

The communication code of the leader of the Fire Seed Machines is not something that ordinary people can obtain. Even a saint like Tianwei would not be able to get it if he did not have the identity of representing the Deep Web. However, at this moment, this level 60 faction boss handed over the communication code very easily.

This is extremely important for senior engineers.

Of the three mother cities, Cybertron was the last to fall. Its terrain should have made it the last stronghold for the planet's species to resist the Cybertronian tide. However, the arrogance of the Cybertronian robots caused it to lose this greatest advantage.

Cybertronian robots that can understand human speech, especially those in high positions, might be a turning point for the future.

Unbeknownst to Tianwei, at a certain spaceship base on Cybertron, as the ship's door opened, a mechanical flagship slowly sailed into outer space. On its menacing bow hung the most advanced space distortion anchor. Every large-scale shift of the space anchor point would make it appear hundreds of miles away in an instant, and its target was the interstellar train that had just left.

When they arrived, the fortress delegation and the deep web delegation came separately.

But when they left, they took the same interstellar train.

The two sides were staring at each other in disbelief.

Compared to Cybertron, which sits high above satellites and is more akin to an overseas military base, the two mother city powers, Deep Web and Fortress, are actually the ones fighting the fiercest. The reason is simple: both are trying to gain a foothold in cyberspace.

The fact that the golden rule changes every so often further normalizes this struggle.

Undoubtedly, with the underlying protocols of cyberspace mounted on the 'Fortress Host', the Fortress's influence within the space will expand dramatically for a considerable period of time.

Expansion inevitably leads to contraction, but the question is, who is willing to suffer losses?

Fortunately, the leader of the group from the fortress, Legion Commander Xiao Yuanjun, was seriously injured and was immersed in the repair bay of the train. Without a leader, both sides maintained a tense but restrained attitude.

However, what the senior engineer was thinking about now was, if he made a move now, what were the chances of killing this old man Xiao?

He was absolutely certain that the old man was a member of the Adventists, and the rewards for the planetary mission were something he was really drooling over.

As the senior engineer was pondering this, an alarm suddenly went off on the interstellar train. Many people showed surprised expressions, while others remained calm.

Tong Jiu, without even looking up, said, "Don't be nervous. It's just a data concept entity that has completed the replacement of the Golden Rule. It's using the train's signal station to return to the Machine Rift Star. It won't cause us any trouble."

"Oh, I see," the senior engineer nodded seriously, "So the data portal before me is also an illusion?"

Suddenly, Tong fell completely silent. Not only Tong, but everyone else also had an expression of not being able to see. All kinds of sensory signals were transformed into a colorful liquid, and at the end of the liquid was a pink door. However, only the senior engineer could see this door.

There is no doubt that the senior engineer was pulled into a certain data space.

"This way of making an entrance doesn't seem like Sister Elisa at all. It's more like some woman who's not suitable for children," the senior engineer shook his head, sighed, got up, and walked directly into the door.
