Fortunately, along the way, she understood one thing: this metal bead that had been following Lin Tao must be extraordinary. Otherwise, coupled with the sound of the stone ball made by children talking in children's voices, she would have laughed so hard that she almost choked.
However, a metal bead that could speak and a stone ball that could communicate with humans made the two of them feel inexplicably palpitating. After all, they had never seen such a strange scene before.
Lin Tao walked forward and looked at the stone ball sandwiched between two fang-like stone pillars. His eyes flickered and he asked, "Are you Zhuo from the Zhuo Xing tribe?"
"Yes, I am Zhuo from the Zhuo Xing Clan. Um, I heard you talking to Xiao Honghong. You want to ask me something? What is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly changed his tone: "No, no, why should I answer you?"
This childish voice was unable to make the atmosphere serious, and his words sounded like a child playing house, which was very shocking.
"It is a member of the mechanical clan. It wants to exchange information about the Zhuoxing clan with me. What about you? What will you exchange with me?" Zhuo asked in a childish voice.
Zhe used the information of the Zhuoxing tribe to exchange intelligence?
Lin Tao wondered, doesn’t the Zhuoxing tribe know about their own tribe?
Suddenly, Lin Tao was startled. Zeng had mentioned before that only three Zhuoxing tribe members had been found so far, and the Zhuoxing tribe member in front of him was most likely the fourth one.
There are only four Zhuoxing people in the vast starry sky. How do they communicate with each other? How do they know their identities?
Moreover, with such a small number, how can they call themselves a tribe? Lin Tao frowned secretly, deliberately ignored Zhuo's words, and asked instead: "You have never come into contact with other Zhuo Xing people?"
"No." Zhuo said with regret: "I have been staying here since I was born. I don't know how other tribesmen are doing now."
At this point, Zhuo's stone ball trembled a few times, but he asked loudly to Zhe: "Metal bead of the mechanical clan, tell me quickly, where are the members of our Zhuo Xing clan?"
"Hmph! I'm not a metal bead, I'm a mechanical person." Zhe said angrily.
"Okay, okay, this mechanical man, may I ask where are the members of our Zhuoxing tribe?" Zhuo immediately changed his tone and added honorifics.
Lin Tao frowned but said nothing.
The reason is simple. Zhuo has been staying in this starry sky and has never come into contact with other Zhuo Star Clan members. How can he know his own identity? How can he know that there are other members of the Zhuo Star Clan members?
"Hmph!" Zhe was quite satisfied with Zhuo's attitude. After a heavy snort, he said, "As different races, we need to exchange intelligence. I will ask you some questions first, and then determine the level based on your answers. If you reach a certain level of authority, then I can also tell you some highly confidential information."
"News is also divided into levels?" Zhuo was stunned.
After the core sphere of Zhe flashed a few times, it suddenly flew towards the stone ball with a whoosh.
Lin Tao's heart moved, and before Zhe could speak, he lowered his voice and said, "Zhe, everything has a first come first served principle. Even if we are exchanging information, you have to line up behind me."
Lin Tao is well aware of the database level of the Mechanical Clan. If he exchanges information with Zhuo and Zhuo puts it to use, it is estimated that when Lin Tao wants to ask Zhuo some questions again, he will also be subject to level restrictions. At that time, it will be extremely difficult for Lin Tao to get answers from Zhuo again.
The core ball of Zhe was stunned for a moment, as if it wanted to say something, but turned back in disappointment.
Seeing that Zhe actually listened to a human and returned unhappily, Zhuo immediately became anxious: "Your name is Lin Tao? Ask me if you have anything to say. I am in a hurry to exchange information."
Seeing this scene, not only Zhuo of the Zhuoxing clan was anxious, but Che Zhenghong, Zheng Xun and Lu Mengchen were also equally surprised, because they now knew Zhe's identity.
They were surprised that a foreigner actually listened to Lin Tao's words. The three of them looked at Lin Tao, wanting to know what he was going to ask.
Lin Tao took a step forward and approached the stone ball.
The stone ball was clamped between the tips of two stone pillars. It seemed stable, but it also looked like it would fall at any time.
"How do you know you are from the Zhuoxing clan?" Lin Tao asked.
This question also made Che Zhenghong and the other two curious, and they couldn't help but listen attentively. When Zhuo heard the question, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but laugh: "I thought you were going to ask something else, but you can still ask such a stupid question."
The childish laughter sounded very strange, but fortunately everyone knew that the sound came from the stone ball, otherwise they would have thought they had encountered a ghost.
The core sphere of Zhe flashed a few times, and it seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Tao for asking such a question.
Lin Tao stared at the stone ball in front of him, his expression unchanged, waiting for the answer.
"The reason why they are called the Zhuoxing clan is because they are like a planet. The old generation is destroyed and the new generation is born, and one generation replaces the other. In this process, some of their memories will still remain." Seeing that Zhuo seemed a little disdainful to answer this question, Zeng explained.
The old generation is destroyed, the new generation is born, and one generation replaces another? Isn't it just like the rebirth of the phoenix in the myth? Lin Tao suddenly understood.
However, the Zhuoxing clan still retained some of their memories during the generational change process, which was beyond Lin Tao's expectation. He glanced at Zhe secretly in his eyes, and it was no wonder that Zhe would exchange information with the Zhuoxing clan in front of him.
Based on the tone of voice of the Zhuo Xing people in front of him, Lin Tao could roughly guess what the other party had retained and what they had given up.
As for the childish side, what the Zhuoxing tribe has preserved should only be information about the Zhuoxing tribe, and the rest should have disappeared in the process of generation change, otherwise it would be impossible for Zhuo to know his own identity while showing such a childish side.
"Any other questions?" Zhuo was extremely dissatisfied with Lin Tao's prevention of him from exchanging information with the mechanical race.
Lin Tao's eyes flashed, and it was time to get to the point.
"Do you know the three-eyed people?" Lin Tao said.
"Three-eyed people?" Zhuo was stunned.
"It's a person who looks similar to us humans, but has an extra eye on his forehead." Lin Tao said.
When mentioning the three-eyed people, Lu Mengchen's face darkened. Zheng Xun and Che Zhenghong looked at each other, both of them were puzzled. They had never heard of the three-eyed people.
The core sphere of Zhe kept flashing, as if it was also among the information it wanted to exchange.
"The three-eyed people? So they are now called the three-eyed people." Zhuo's stone ball trembled a few times.
Hearing that the stone ball in front of him seemed to know the three-eyed people, Lin Tao quickly asked: "What were they called before?"
"Three-eyed people? It's almost the same name, but the name Three-eyed people is indeed suitable for them." Zhuo said: "What do you want to know about them?"
"Lin Tao, let me ask this question." Suddenly, Zhe's core ball flew forward, paused, and then hurriedly said: "Lin Tao, I know what you want to ask, and I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Lin Tao frowned secretly, but nodded to show his agreement.
Zhe suddenly stepped forward, which made Zhuo look happy: "Hahaha~ That's right, you should have come here a long time ago."
"Zhuo, I have a question here. You can choose to answer it or not." The fierce metal ball asked after flashing a burst of light.
"Speak." Zhuo said.
"How did the three-eyed people appear in the Great Interstellar Federation? Before the Great Interstellar Federation, we have never been able to track them down." Zhe asked.
"Do you want to know the origin of the three-eyed people?" Zhuo's stone ball suddenly trembled, as if it would fall from the two stone pillars at any time.
Lin Tao was secretly shocked, wondering if these three-eyed people were quite important. He narrowed his eyes slightly, said nothing, pricked up his ears, and listened attentively.
"After the three-eyed people created our mechanical race and the giant insect race, our two races spread almost throughout the entire interstellar federation. However, even our mechanical race, which has always loved collecting intelligence resources, cannot find out the origins of the three-eyed people." Zhe was much calmer than before.
"Since you want to know, that's fine." Suddenly, Zhuo became mature, but this tone coming from a child's voice was very abrupt.
Huh! At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew up, and a shadow suddenly appeared on the ring on Lin Tao's index finger. It was the shadow of Guda that emerged from it.
"People of the Zhuoxing tribe, now is not the time to reveal the secrets of the Three-Eyed Tribe, so please don't say too much."
The Shadow of Guda said in a deep voice.
"What is that? A white paper figure?"
"How can there be such a big white paper figure? Can the paper figure talk?"
Guda's shadow was pure white in appearance, taller than normal humans, but looked like a thin piece of paper. When Che Zhenghong and the other two saw the sudden appearance of Guda's shadow, they were all shocked. As the planet commander, Che Zhenghong was in a better state of mind, but Zheng Xun and Lu Mengchen had already screamed on the spot.
Lin Taozhen was surprised at the appearance of Guda's Shadow, but they were even more shocked by what Guda's Shadow said, which seemed to indicate that he had some understanding of the Three-Eyed People.
Now, the Shadow of Guda actually asked Zhuo of the Zhuoxing tribe not to reveal the origins of the three-eyed people.
What is going on?
Lin Tao frowned secretly, and after pondering for a while, he asked, "Shadow of Guda, what are your origins?"
"The Shadow Clan? What exactly are you hiding from us?" Zhe also asked repeatedly.
The Shadow of Guda has been facing Zhuo's stone ball without saying a word, as if waiting for Zhuo's answer.
At this time, Zhuo seemed to have been sizing up the Guda Shadow in front of him. After a while, Zhuo's stone ball made a sound, "I remember, I remember you, the Shadow Clan? Are you called the Shadow Clan now? Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
