The primary purpose of Star Moon was to assist Ji Xinghe in caring for Ji Rong Xinyue, so it made sense for its gender to be female.
But now it seems...
"Master, do you think this design is a waste of resources?"
Star Moon asked proactively.
She understood Ji Xinghe very well. No need to mention the past instances, just consider the recent time when Ji Xinghe clearly had a need and the ability to send some tungsten steel alloy back to the Azure Star to repair and upgrade her previous body.
But for a more reasonable use of resources, Ji Xinghe refused.
Ji Xinghe was actually considering the gender setting for Star Moon. Pursuing beauty is a natural instinct, but it's not well suited for the battlefield.
Why add an "over frequency" step when one can simply go on a killing spree?
So, he casually replied, "somewhat".
