Chapter 12: Low Gravity City
Perhaps they had never seen humans before, as the girls walked along the streets of the node city, naturally attracting the attention of the “Mechanical Cluster Group.”
“Detected special entities, currently observing. Scanning through data, conclusion: Stupid fox…”
“What model of robot is this, and it’s being led by tvp.”
“Is it human? I saw similar records in the library before.”
…
Although the robots were surprised, they didn’t step forward to strike up a conversation, only observing from a distance.
However, Lonis was horrified to discover…
Why were these robots so lustful?
They kept staring at her chest and thighs! Her fox ears and tail were also being stared at intently by many people, it was simply too strange!!
But just as Lonis was becoming suspicious…
Across the street, a robot with a seemingly slender figure suddenly walked over.
Unlike tvp, it walked on all fours, and its upper body resembled a slender human woman, with slender and normal arms and torso.
“tvp, why aren’t you staying put and preparing rent at the supply station? What are you doing in the city!”
The robot spoke without politeness, as if it knew tvp.
And tvp, as if seeing its nemesis, subconsciously wanted to turn and flee… but the girls were still around him, so he could only say with a stiff “scalp”:
“pm56, you don’t know. We have guests at our supply station this time, and I’m bringing them to tour the city.”
“Guests?”
“Yes, these three are the legendary humans. As robots, shouldn’t we serve our human masters?”
“Really, are they humans?”
Before, pm’s entire attention was focused on tvp, and it hadn’t noticed Elus and the others. Now, it seemed to suddenly realize, and slowly began to observe:
“To think they have such soft skin, they really are human… How amazing, is that fluffy thing the legendary tail?”
“Waa!”
“I heard it’s used for balance, can I touch it? I kind of feel…”
pm56 stared intently at Lonis, but then tvp said:
“Pm, don’t be rude to humans!”
“Ah, right… humans are our creators.”
“No, it’s okay, if you want to touch it, just touch it.”
Lonis’s pretty face blushed, and she suddenly understood what those robots’ gazes meant.
It was like seeing a panda in the zoo!
Imagine if she saw an unfamiliar wild animal in the city, she would also be curious and stare at it all the time!
…
And pm56’s touch wasn’t just a simple touch; its hands were very dexterous and were loaded with many sensing units, allowing it to analyze things that ordinary people didn’t know.
“Hmm… This should be an additional plugin, with self-repair and body balancing functions, a product of advanced technology… but what does ‘5210 rubs’ mean…”
“Ahhh! Don’t mind that, it’s just… irrelevant data?”
…
To think her big tail had been rubbed so many times by Elus!
Thinking of this, the silver-haired girl guiltily swung her tail around… In her memory, it hadn’t been that many times. It seemed that the black-hearted girl had secretly been stroking her big tail while she was asleep!
“Hmph, a little idiot is just little idiot.”
Elus wasn’t guilty at all. She just puffed out her chest and asked pm56: “Miss pm, we are guests traveling to the moon. Do you know where there are hotels for humans to rest?”
“Hotel…”
“It’s the human reception area, also known as the ecological complex.”
“I know, I’ve dealt with them before. Do you want to go there? But I have some urgent matters on hand right now and can’t guide you.”
“pm, I’ll take our human masters there. You go ahead and be busy.”
“Alright, tvp, remember to entertain the humans properly. Don’t let humans think that we robots are just a bunch of bookworms who only follow logic!”
Before long, the girls arrived at the center of the city, a verdant greenhouse park.
Perhaps it was due to the lower gravity?
The plants here grew exceptionally vigorously. A corn cob was as big as Lonis’s body!
Also, the trunks and branches were much more slender—because there was no gravitational constraint, it was easier for plants to absorb nutrients from the roots to the leaves, and the branches didn’t need a strong structure to support more fruits.
“Amazing… It’s like entering the land of giants!”
Su Ling jumped up excitedly. This greenhouse park was more than ten square kilometers. It also occupied the most core part of the entire node city.
Elus also smiled and explained, “So, the moon is suitable for plants and robots to live, but not for humans?”
“Huh? Why…”
“Because the gravity here is too low, people living here won’t experience any pressure on their bodies. Over time, the heart’s blood supply function will weaken, and muscles will also degenerate.”
“Waa?”
“Unless you undergo high-intensity training for several hours every day, but then there won’t be time for other work. So, basically, no humans stayed on the moon back then?”
“I see…”
“On the contrary, robots have heavy mechanical parts inside. This structure is just right for dexterity on the moon, but it would appear clumsy on Earth, or even crush the road.”
Elus also explained some of Lonis’s doubts.
After advancing only a few steps in the central park, the girls arrived at a place that looked very much like a museum.
The walls were made of accumulated clay, with no windows on the surface, only a large inscription “Ecological Complex” indicating its identity.
However, just as tvp was about to lead the girls inside…
A robotic guard suddenly descended from the sky!
Its appearance was very similar to a medieval armored warrior, but the difference was—it had wings on its back like a bee, and the airflow generated by the vibration kept the guard floating half a meter above the ground.
…
“Halt! This is a restricted area. Without the Lord’s command, ordinary robots are not allowed to enter!”
“I know the order! But, Ek! These are not robots I brought, but humans.”
tvp tilted its head and communicated with the guard—it wasn’t just through sound, but also through signals transmitted between the two.
“Humans?”
“The Lord didn’t stipulate that human activity areas should be restricted, right? So as long as I’m here, at least Your Highness of humanity can enter, right?”
“Indeed, there isn’t, but…”
“But what? You don’t even listen to human orders?”
“But, the Lord said…”
“Stop talking about the Lord, Lord, Lord. Although the Lord is very powerful, is he greater than humans?”
“To be precise, I don’t know.”
“Then if you don’t know, just let us pass. If you delay things, won’t you become a sinner and damage the honor of all of us robots?”
“Indeed, you are right.”
This guard named Ek, although he looked strong and powerful, didn’t seem very bright.
So he nodded and said, “Then, please proceed. Because you are humans, I have no right to question your information. However, please at least abide by the basic rules and do not cause any disturbances.”
“Of course, of course, we are humans who are here for tourism, not invading demons.”
“Uh?”
“Stupid little fox, Su Ling, let’s go in and rest for a bit?”
