#934 - Chapter 934 Red Cloud Star and Sirius Star
"I'm here, can I speak now?" the silicon-based giant octopus asked.
Oriental Chen Er was silent for a moment, then sent new content to Nata.
Nata controlled the transforming crystal steel and said:
"I'm just here to deliver a message for a friend."
"For whom?"
"A friend on the moon," the transforming crystal steel replied.
Oriental Chen Er was merely guessing that there might be some connection between the silicon-based creatures here and those on the moon.
After all, they are of the same kind; even if not, they should at least know of each other's existence.
The silicon-based giant octopus was silent for a moment before asking:
"What message?"
"Phew ~"
Oriental Chen Er and Nata both breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed this gamble had paid off.
Oriental Chen Er took the opportunity to send new content.
The transforming crystal steel asked:
"Save them."
"What happened to them?" the silicon-based octopus asked.
"They were taken to another star system by a group of insects," the transforming crystal steel replied.
Oriental Chen Er had previously discovered that those insects captured the silicon-based creatures on the moon for a purpose.
And that purpose might be to raise them to produce Zhen Crystal.
Therefore, he came up with a temporary idea to use their plight to build a relationship with the silicon-based octopus.
"Another star system? Are you saying they were taken to Sirius?" the silicon-based octopus asked.
"What?"
"Sirius?"
Nata and Mongka were both shocked to hear this.
Oriental Chen Er was also shocked, but did not make a sound.
"Could it be that the Red Cloud Star we observed is Sirius?" Oriental Chen Er said suspiciously.
"Dad, that's unlikely, right? Isn't Sirius an ancient human planet?"
"That's right, this Red Cloud Star is clearly a planet ruled by insects," Mongka also felt it was impossible.
Moreover, this situation was severely inconsistent with what they had always known.
Oriental Chen Er didn't have time to ponder the details now, so he quickly sent new content to Nata.
"How are you sure they were taken to Sirius?" the transforming crystal steel asked.
"These insects are truly hateful! They go back on their word and have no integrity!" The silicon-based octopus did not answer, but said fiercely.
"Do you know them?" the transforming crystal steel continued to ask.
Oriental Chen Er and the others felt like they had stumbled upon a big scoop.
"When were they captured?" the silicon-based octopus asked instead of answering.
"Before asking questions, shouldn't you answer my question first?" the transforming crystal steel said.
"Considering you came to deliver a message, I'll allow you to be presumptuous once, but this is also the last time. Answer me! When were they captured?" The silicon-based octopus had no interest in answering at all.
Oriental Chen Er pondered for a moment, feeling it was unnecessary to confront him head-on. If the other party were to obliterate the transforming crystal steel, there would be no way to continue extracting information.
So he decided to compromise temporarily, and sent the answer to Nata.
The transforming crystal steel replied:
"30 Blue Star years ago."
"Heh heh! Blue Star years!" The silicon-based octopus sneered.
But Oriental Chen Er didn't understand what its sneer represented.
"Alright. I've delivered the message, can I get my reward now?" the transforming crystal steel asked.
"What do you want?" the silicon-based octopus asked.
"I want a small world," the transforming crystal steel replied.
The reason Oriental Chen Er said this was to rationalize the reason for delivering the message.
Without benefits, it would definitely be impossible to come and deliver a message for nothing. Therefore, a reward must be demanded.
The reason for asking for a small world was to subtly imply that their original home had been destroyed.
In this way, the transforming crystal steel's apparent ignorance could also be rationalized.
The silicon-based octopus was silent for a long time before refusing:
"I can't give you a small world."
"This request isn't too excessive for you, is it?" the transforming crystal steel pretended to be unhappy.
"It's indeed not excessive. But I have something I need you to do for me," the silicon-based octopus said.
"What is it?" the transforming crystal steel asked.
"I need you to go to Sirius," the silicon-based octopus said.
"Go to Sirius? Sorry, I can't do that," the transforming crystal steel shook its head.
"Between death and going to Sirius, you can choose one," the silicon-based octopus was not angry, presenting it with two options.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the wormhole is closed, and I can't reach there at all," the transforming crystal steel explained.
"The wormhole is closed? That's impossible!" the silicon-based octopus didn't believe it.
"Do you think I need to lie about this kind of thing?" the transforming crystal steel retorted.
There was indeed no need to lie about this kind of thing, because the wormhole either exists or it doesn't, and you can't deceive anyone about it.
"Ahhh ~"
"Outrageous!"
The silicon-based octopus was furious.
But Oriental Chen Er didn't know why it was angry.
"My small world was destroyed by humans, and my original body has also been destroyed. This body took me a lot of effort to develop, I need your help to rebuild my home," the transforming crystal steel found a reason to continue the topic.
