Chu Mu remembered that this family actually had one more member-
Blade.
The man Kafka had described as quiet and reserved was still out of contact and had yet to get in touch with anyone else.
Judging by that, he probably wasn't very reliable either.
The Star Destroyer's enormous loudspeakers broadcast the announcement of the Small Court's opening throughout the tribe.
Beneath this vast tribe, situated under the pyramid, lay a dense network of caves.
The sandstone here was loosely packed, making it ideal for excavating caves.
Silver Wolf scanned the caves below with an instrument and discovered that the overall structure resembled an underground ant colony, one layer stacked upon another, with well over ten thousand caves of varying sizes.
Most of the caves were extremely cramped. Medium and large robots couldn't enter them, and barriers had even been erected at the entrances.
That meant Chu Mu couldn't establish effective rule here. He could only occupy the chief's great pyramid aboveground; the underground world had an order of its own.
