Chapter 55 Disaster Cloud
'One...you think, is there a possibility that it is out of oil? '

【……? ? ? 】

Yi was confused by Chen Fan's sudden question.

[You mean...the energy of the Wall of Sighs has been exhausted? 】

After receiving Chen Fan's affirmation, Yiye fell into silence.

After thinking for a long time, Yi's voice sounded again.

[The energy demand of the plasma barrier is very low, but for a first- or second-level civilization, it is still considered a large energy consumer. 】

[Therefore, such a possibility does exist. 】

Chen Fan silently turned his head and glanced at Varela City, which was full of low bungalows: 'What level of civilization do you think Varela is? '

【…】

Yi fell into a rare long silence.

After a long time, it continued to make sounds.

[I think this mainly depends on the civilization level of the goddess. 】

[If the other party is a civilization of level three or above, then this possibility is almost zero. 】

'The reason? '

[First-level and second-level civilizations are the basic strata of interstellar civilization. Their main source of energy is controllable nuclear fusion, and their energy efficiency is relatively low. 】

[Starting from level three civilization, the method of energy acquisition will gradually change to the annihilation of matter and antimatter. 】

[For a small plasma barrier, a large-capacity antimatter battery is enough to support its operation until the end of time. 】

Chen Fan was secretly speechless.

Good guy.

Tingyi said that the energy acquisition methods before controllable nuclear fusion are not even ranked at the level of the People's Federation!
[Therefore, it is more likely that the internal components of this machine have failed during long-term operation. 】

[Think about it, if you throw a desk lamp to a primitive man, and then the primitive man drives it day and night without any maintenance and upkeep work, do you think this desk lamp can still be used? 】

The words are indeed a bit rough, but the meaning is still very accurate.

Chen Fan nodded silently to express his understanding.

"Let's go."

He turned around and waved to Isha and Gao Yuan beside him: "Go home first and make plans after the ceremony of the descending of gods is over."

……

Varela City, east main church, side nave.

The archbishop, wearing a gorgeous red robe, stood quietly in front of the window of the side hall, his metallic-glossy mechanical head slightly raised, and his four mechanical prosthetic eyes staring straight at the sky outside the window.

A sudden cool breeze blew from the window, blowing the luxurious curtains.

The sky was densely covered with fish-scale clouds. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, these fish-scale clouds dyed the entire sky blood-colored.

"It's going to change again."

A mechanical voice sounded in the side hall: "In recent years, disaster clouds have appeared more and more frequently."

The archbishop stretched out his mechanical prosthesis from under his red robe, clasped his hands together, and let out a long sigh:

"Lord... I wish you to complete it as soon as possible..."

Before the words could be finished, the door to the side hall was pushed open with a dull sound.

Echoes suddenly echoed in the empty side hall.

The archbishop put down his hands and slowly turned to look in the direction of the palace door.

"Wallis, you're out of your mind."

At the door of the side hall, Wallis, who was wearing a purple bishop's robe, felt his heart stagnate when he looked at the tall red figure.

He took a deep breath, and the cool air circled around his burning lungs. It took away a lot of residual heat and waste gas, and also took away some of the anger in his heart. "My Lord Archbishop, I'm sorry."

Wallis bent down slightly and expressed his apology to the archbishop who was more than half his body taller than him.

"Failed?"

The archbishop asked lightly: "The priest named Isa didn't tip off the chosen one?"

"No, as you guessed, Isha did leak this matter to Chen Fan."

"But we still failed."

"Chen Fan saw through our plan and even used the opportunity to design a corresponding trap for me."

Wallis briefly reported his experience: "As of now, there is no evidence to show that Chen Fan, the God's Chosen One, has any alien intentions."

Upon hearing this, the archbishop's calm expression became serious.

Wallis's voice paused: "But I still think this is just an appearance."

"I can tell that he is different from other God's chosen ones. There is no respect or reverence for the Lord in his eyes!"

The Archbishop fell silent.

After a long time, he spoke again: "No evidence at all?"

"No more." Wallis shook his head and clenched his iron fist unwillingly, "He used the safety of the library and the reputation of the other chosen ones and the church as bargaining chips. At this critical juncture, I have to give in. "

The Archbishop understood Wallis's words.

"Chen Fan..."

He murmured in a low voice, and the red light in his four mechanical eyes became even brighter: "I remember you mentioned it once before, that he performed very well in the third oracle, and is he the perfect candidate required by the Lord?"

"Yes." Wallis was stunned for a moment, then nodded in response.

"In that case, let's hold the divine selection ceremony in advance!"

Under Wallis's shocked gaze, the Archbishop turned around suddenly and walked toward the side hall door.

Amidst the heavy footsteps, a word with a slight metallic resonance fell: "I will go to see the Pope first, and you and the other bishops will be ready."

……

The next morning.

For the church and believers, the Divine Advent Ceremony is a very important day.

Therefore, Chen Fan was woken up early in the morning and put on the official clothing of the Chosen One - the platinum robe of the Chosen One.

After completing various complicated preparations, Chen Fan and Gao Yuan, who was also wearing the God's Chosen robe, followed Carlisle and a strange black-robed priest towards the place where the God's descent ceremony was held.

The sky was extremely dark, with layers of clouds accumulating high in the sky. Only a little bit of weak sunlight shined through these thick clouds to the earth.

Wisps of cold wind blew from the sky, taking away some of the remaining warmth on the surface.

"Is it cold?"

Seeing Chen Fan shrinking back, Gao Yuan lowered his voice cheerfully and said, "Just get used to it. It's like this every time Varela's calendar changes."

"When the goddess truly arrives, even the sun will disappear completely, and it will be even colder then."

"The sky collapsed, the sun and the moon lost their light...that is the real miracle!"

Chen Fan was shocked.

Will the sun disappear? !
Is such a grand scene really possible with human power?

[Maybe something is used to temporarily block the light of the star. 】

A voice sounded in my mind: [There is no atmosphere in space, and light will only propagate in straight lines. Therefore, you only need to place a sufficiently large sunshade cloth between the planet and the star. 】

[For an interstellar civilization, this operation is not difficult. 】

Looking at the holographic demonstration animation projected on his retina, the throbbing in Chen Fan's heart calmed down a little.
