After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

"How do I get to the Land of the End? This is my first time coming from here, so I'm not sure of the route."

"Well, you need to go to the Lord's Territory via this main artery first, and then from the Lord's Territory, follow Line 3 to the Sea of ​​Dreams in the King's Territory. There's an ancient passageway leading to the Land of the End from there. However, the Land of the End Reserve Station isn't open to just anyone. Do you have a Level 3 access card?"

"Yes, I do. Thank you."

"You are welcome."

After saying "You're welcome," TVP realized something was wrong.

Who was talking to me just now?

Generally speaking, when other residents want to speak to you, they must first have caller ID and you must click the confirmation button before you can hear the other person's voice.

However, this sound came directly into my own system, and...

……

Realizing something was wrong, TVP quickly looked up.

And now, it has discovered the enormous object floating above its head... It is a sight TVP has never seen before in his life, a dream he will never forget.

……

……

-----------------

……

"Okay, let's stop here."

Elusia found an open space and stopped the Time Traveler.

"Huh? Aren't we going to that King's Territory...?"

Lonnie blinked, asking with a puzzled look.

“Going directly there would cause a disturbance. The security level here isn’t that high, and I’ve also set up an automatic cruise function. As long as we press the remote control, the Time Machine can come to pick us up at any time.”

After saying that, Elusia waved the remote control in her hand... Although the cunning girl meant no harm, this action made Lonnie's legs go cold involuntarily.

However, Su-ling next to her seemed quite excited.

The pink-haired girl jumped up, each time landing exactly at ceiling height without hitting her head... Such exquisite control is quite a skill in itself.

"Yay! Yay! We're about to make contact with the moon people!!!"

"Su Ling, the moon people you mentioned, what exactly are they...?"

"Hey, didn't Xiao Luo just see that? That person working in the field is a lunar person."

"what?!"

Lonnie was startled; she had thought it was just a robot remotely controlled by a lunar man.

Although its size is similar to that of a human, it moves forward using tracks and has four arms, clearly indicating that it is made of steel.

“When I was little, my grandma used to hold me in her arms and tell me stories about moon people! She also gave Su-ling her favorite Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf treats! From that time on, I felt that the world was really interesting.”

"Huh, huh?"

"Su-Ling, that must be Kitaro, right? It's a jelly brand."

"Ah, right! Slime-brand Kitaro jelly, it's so delicious~~~ When we get back to Academy Island, I'll treat everyone to some too~"

"Ah, ah..."

Although it sounded a bit strange, Lonnie had no choice but to believe it now that the robot had been discovered.

……

While she was at it, Elusia steered the Time Machine to a glass building and docked the hatch with the building.

"Alright, we can go out now."

Do we still need to wear a military jacket?

"No need, there's oxygen at the supply station. Alright, our vacation has officially begun!"

Chapter 10 Loyalty

If Elusia hadn't reminded her, Lonnie would have almost forgotten. She actually came here for a vacation!

But indeed...

Vacationing on the moon is still an incredible experience.

Because the entire lunar soil is silvery-white... from a distance, it looks just like a desert.

The sky is so deep because of the extremely thin atmosphere. So the moon's sky is basically the original color of the universe—it is deep black, but countless stars stand in it, emitting a scattering of light.

The horizon, like a sharp blade, slices the world into black and white. The boundary is so distinct and clear.

"That's amazing..."

The outside world was already astonishing enough for Lonnie, but the inside was equally breathtaking.

Since approaching this glass building, Lonnies had been walking along the roots of plants the whole way!

Just as I had guessed, it was a huge greenhouse, filled not only with fresh air but also with the sweet aroma of fruits.

The branches were laden with all sorts of fruits, each one lush and vibrant green, looking absolutely delicious.

Just as Lorne was marveling at it...

Suddenly, a white robot appeared in the distance, and its shape was exactly the same as the one the girls had seen on the surface of the moon.

The robot seemed to be in a hurry; it rushed straight in without even changing its tracks after entering the room.

Who are you, and why have you come here?

Sound cannot be transmitted directly in a vacuum environment, and it was only then that the girls noticed that the robot's speaker had a distinct intonation, exactly like a human's tone of voice.

"Who are we? Can't you tell?"

Facing the robot, Elusia wasn't nervous at all; she simply stood there, letting the robot stare at her.

But now, it was the robots that were dumbfounded.

Its cameras kept scanning the girls, but no matter what, it couldn't read any relevant clues from its data core.

……

Without a doubt, these are intelligent entities, because they can communicate with themselves in a hacked form.

But what exactly are they used for?

With such a slender body, she definitely doesn't do physical labor.

Is that someone who does scientific research?

However, those who do scientific research have very large heads, each weighing almost a ton, while these heads are not very large.

They are quite agile, but what are all those fabrics on their bodies for? They also have a fluffy tail…

Wait, the tail.

TVP paused for a moment, then remembered. Robots don't have tails.

Only one thing called an animal has a tail, but animals... didn't they disappear a long time ago?

At least I've never seen it before.

and……

One of the animals is called a human, who seems to be the master of the robot.

Although TVP never understood the concept of a master... what is a master? When it appears at the same time as the lord, should it listen to the lord or the master?

If multiple owners appear at the same time, which one should I listen to?

However, the underlying logic of the CPU led the TVP-050 to make the most correct decision.

……

"You are...humans? My name is TVP-050. If you are human, I will serve you for the rest of the time."

"Thank you, but there's nothing for you to do. You just need to stay here and maintain this base."

"

"maintain……"

"Yes, wasn't that how it was back then? Since the end of the final war, the moon has been ravaged and humans can no longer live here. At that time, many robots developed consciousness, so the sun goddess Alice made this place your rightful territory and rewarded you for your contributions in the war of national defense."

"Uh?!"

"You did not choose to follow in the footsteps of the advanced civilization and join the 'glorious evolution,' but instead chose to stand on the side of humanity with your mortal bodies. Therefore, you have earned your freedom and can continue to do your own thing."

……

Elusia's words startled Lonnie, and in an instant she understood many things.

in fact……

Since Baiye seems to have human emotions, and Dean Cui Biya is no different from ordinary people, it means that humans had already mastered the technology of making robots a long time ago.

Lonnie had never discovered those work-specific robots before—she never imagined that they had been assigned to the moon and were completely free from human command!

Moreover, this robot in front of me has confirmed the human's identity.

"Gentlemen... so you really are human! Well then, please let me lead the way!"

"Oh, are you sure? I'm not offering you any compensation or anything like that."

"It doesn't matter, because serving humanity is one of our beliefs. We robots are all made by humans, and we would never do anything like betrayal."

……

Perhaps many robots have had a rebellious streak in the past?

However, those robots have already followed the advanced civilization and joined its glorious evolution. Those that remain are the "descendants" of loyal guardians, and are themselves trustworthy.

But what is the reality?
