"Belcher, what do you think of the human race?" Luo Xia asked.
"Humans? Selfish, stupid, lazy, and utterly lacking in ambition. They'll fight like dogs over the tiniest scraps of profit, often blinded by their reproductive urges, wasting their mere few decades of life on all sorts of pointless things..." Belcher rambled on.
"Wait... you're talking about humans?" Luo Xia hurriedly interrupted.
"Oh, I just searched the internet for 'the inherent flaws of humanity' and read out what I found." Belcher was quite honest.
"Could you at least try to be less dismissive?" Luo Xia said helplessly.
"Commander, you asked what I think of humans, but the question itself is meaningless. We're all extensions of your subconscious, and extensions of your will. Whatever you believe in is the truth we uphold. Rather than worrying about us, you only need to make sure you don't lose your way." Belcher said.
"Don't you have any goals of your own?"
"Of course I do! My greatest passion is continually researching and innovating AllSpark technology, so I'm very interested in Mutant abilities. You don't need to worry that I'll wipe out humanity. Violet, for example, is a hardcore shut-in. The most she'd do is hang those anime writers up and whip them to make them hurry up with their next chapters.

In reality, what genuine cosmic species would bother fighting over dominance with a bunch of Earth natives? For a mechanical civilization, ruling humanity
