1 Modern Era

Sam says 'hey' to the one who just passed by him. If you think that one is Human Being then you are wrong, that one is robot. Then Tara revokes but the one who asks our code and carjet model isn't his robot too. Nope, he is similar to robot but he is robocop. Tara gets confused then she asks what the difference between robot and robocop? Don Ji with the teasing smile replies "robots are 100% artificial all their bodies are prepared by high end refined metal, and they are too light ,their skins are made from fabrics looks similar to our skin, their conscience work through artificial intelligence and they are powered by star stone. But robocops are half robot and half human beings. Though most of the parts of their body are prepared from same materials that are used for robots they are operated by human conscience and powered by star stone but flow of power supplied from star stone can be precisely controlled. Robocop can exactly control their body as human beings control their body through their nervous system. Basically, star stone is used for robot to power their artificial intelligence but in case of Robocop star stone is used to power human brain. Are you clear?" With the confused look Tara nods. Seeing such a pity look Don Ji consoles her, I know that you are not quite familiar with 14 prefecture of this Zoinic world. But Uncle Shaun Ji have strictly told me not to disclose your identity so he hacked into the system of Zoinic world and create your legal id of Zoinic world. So we cannot discuss these things carelessly that seems abnormal to the native of this world. I will try to explain about this world in detail when we return to our prefecture. Sam from behind changed the topic lets return otherwise we will be late. Don Ji replies "ok but at first let me buy some star stones". "But don ji we already have plenty of star stones. Why you need to buy?", sam was surprised. No I just want to clear some doubts, the aura of star stone that are mined from prefecture 13 are quite tyrannical and quite dark in color but star stone from this capital city is quite pure and light in color, I was just curious. Sam was not in a hurry but don't like to stock in unknown place for long. He agreed and then they went to buy star stones.

Central Prefecture city was robust and much more sophisticated from the rest of the prefecture of the Zoinic world. In the top of the sky, large airships can be seen those are belonged to top business tycoons of Zoinic world and their family members. In the mid-air, carjets are used by natives of Zoinic world to travel from one city to another city. Even some giant airships can be seen as they parked as a huge complex floating in the mid air with lots of inns for restaurant, shops and gadget stores. Different holograms of humans/ robots can be seen displaying different product, shows or news from the different corners of the city. Beings only used the road when they prefer to walk around the city.

From one of the inns of floating airship trio came out. Don Ji sighed, thank goodness I just brought extra rubic imprints otherwise I won't be able to purchase these star stones. Don Ji purchased one thousand star stones of blue, red, and yellow colors, for 1.5 million Rubik imprints. Sam exclaimed so expensive. But don ji was satisfied since star stones were original, mined from the sacred pillars. Usually, the one original star stone can be copied into 100 copied star stones. Normally all the commercials and households all use copied star stones and it is hard to get hands on original star stones.

Without doing much delay they get their carjet and head back to their prefecture 14. In order to reach prefecture 14 from mainland they need to travel around 8 hours. When they were returning Tara felt to clear most of her doubts. Then she initiates to speak Don Ji and ask him "what are Rubic imprints? I didn't get how you do the transaction when you purchase star stones". With smile don ji explains " Rubic imprints are digital currency of Zoinic country. 10 gold coins are equal to 1 rubic imprint. Rubic imprints are issued by the zoinic government. Every shop have their own digital imprints placed in the shop so I scan it and directly transfer the rubic imprints to the shop owners account, simple as that. Do you get it". Tara nodded her head but don ji can feel from her looks that she has plethora of questions in her mind but she was hesitating. Then, Don Ji continuous: "I know you have lots of questions to be asked as you are foreign to this land, it is obvious to be curious about new place, trends, customs and history. Initially, I used to believe that Zoinic country is the only country of this planet, not only me every people of this country believe that way. But I don't know why he wants to keep your identity a secret. Apart, from Uncle Ji, only I and Sam know that you are not from this land. Since, Sam is the personal robot of Uncle Ji he won't disclose your identity. Don't worry about me I am most trusted Nephew of Uncle Ji. After hearing this she was more confused and don't how critical actual situation is. With innocent look she slightly nodded to Dong ji.

Alright I will give you general overview of this land. "Zoinic nation has total 13 prefectures under its control. These 13 prefectures are controlled by 13 powerful business tycoons of this land. Manufacturing of robots, robocop, Artificial intelligence, mining of star stones, issuance rubic imprints all these prime businesses are controlled by these clans. However, our prefecture 14 is independent from Zoinic nation but it is in alliance with Zoinic 13 prefecture. Even though every being of Prefecture 14, including robots, robocop, carjets needs to be registered and need to get Zoinic id code". Now Tara was quite pale she understood how vigilant Zoinic nation is when it comes to intruders. After seeing her expression Don Ji tried to console her " Don't worry everything is under control, that's why uncle ji allowed us to visit mainland". Then, Don Ji continues "sacred pillar from where star stones are extracted, are located in these 13 prefectures, we don't have sacred pillars. By the way sacred pillars are 100 ft tall pillars where energies are concentrated for millions of years and such concentrate energy is extracted in form of star stones. In fact these 13 prefectures are divided on the basis of 13 sacred pillars. We don't have sacred pillar, we purchase star stone from prefecture 13; prefecture 13 is oldest prefecture of this world. But we have created a model similar to sacred pillar, extracting energy from the nature. However, level of energy is not concentrated as we can find in sacred pillar. So we are not able to totally replace the use of star stone". Suddenly Don Ji changed the topic have you seen airships with complex and inns?" That was one of the most noticeable gigantic wonder that she have ever seen. How Tara could would forgot that. She slightly nodded. With satisfied look he said "those airships are created by our prefecture. Now we have contract for other prefecture as well. But what a pity manufacturing such airships requires large amount of high metals, materials, labor, resource, we could not manufacture for our own use". Tara was surprised, creating such giant airships definitely not an easy and require really long time.

Ok, now I will tell you about the history of this land. It had been said that before the establishment of zoinic nation, this land was occupied by different, clans, kingdom and guilds. Later, great king Zoinic united all these fragmented power and united as one nation. That why this kingdom named after our founder king Zoinic. King Zoinic was not only powerful and invincible warrior, he also had keen interest in Science and technology. After unification king Zoinic hand over the authority to his descendant and dedicated all his life for science and technology. Today what we have achieved in technology, most of the basics of laws and science had been imparted by king Zoinic to us.

After 8-hour ride carjet reached prefecture 14. Don Ji taking the lead, alright, finally we reached our home. Sam tell Uncle Ji that I am going to my lab, I need to do some research, later I will go to see him. Tara, I really had a nice time with you. We will meet later. Go with Sam he will take you to Uncle Ji. Without delaying much Don Ji disappeared. And like an obedient girl, Tara followed Sam.
