Next.

In the faint call outside the door, Chen Fan opened his sleepy eyes with difficulty.

At first glance, he saw the portrait of the goddess reflected by the morning sun, and the gods under the sun revealed a faint sense of sacredness.

But there was not much reverence in Chen Fan's eyes.

On the contrary, thinking of his fate a month later, the resentment in his eyes was about to drip out!

[It seems that this world is still in the era of worshipping gods.] 】

A soft electronic synthesis voice suddenly sounded in his mind: [This is indeed quite rare, in the records of the Human Federation, few civilizations will be superstitious about the existence of gods after initially mastering electricity-related technology. 】

The sudden electronic synthesis sound startled Chen Fan, and completely dispelled the residual sleepiness in his eyes.

He sat up from the bed abruptly, and it wasn't until he saw the half of the mechanical arm lying on the concrete floor that he suddenly came back to his senses and remembered a series of things that happened last night that were beyond ordinary people's understanding.

"One?"

Chen Fan tentatively whispered.

If he's not mistaken, that's the name of that smart terminal.

To be precise, this is the name of the artificial intelligence inside the smart terminal.

[Don't shout, it was the machine that spoke in your head just now, and those things last night were not your hallucinations.] 】

Chen Fan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, took out the palm of his right hand from the quilt, and put it in the sun to study it carefully.

From the naked eye, the palm of the right hand is still the same as usual, and the bronze skin that glows with a faint blood color in the sun has a slight raised green tendon.

But that's just the appearance.

As Chen Fan's thoughts moved slightly, a thin, silvery-white substance resembling metal quickly appeared on the surface of his palm.

This is the ontology of the smart terminal: a glove.

This glove-type smart wearable device made of unknown materials not only ensures comfort and real touch, but also has strong material strength, which can easily resist the physical attacks of conventional concepts - at least [One] said.

In the palm and back of the glove, a gemstone-like substance is inlaid with each.

According to [One], these two gem-like substances are the core components of the intelligent terminal, and they are also the components with the highest strength.

Not to mention a conventional physical attack, even if it is dropped on the surface of a neutron star, it can also ensure the integrity of its own structure!

Although Chen Fan still has reservations about the above statement, no matter what, this glove-like smart terminal is definitely the most high-end smart wearable device he has ever worn in his life.

Chen Fan shook his head, dispelling the cluttered thoughts in his mind, and focused on the information that [One] had just mentioned.

"One, you just said that superstitious gods ......"

"You mean, there are no real gods in this world?"

Yi did not answer Chen Fan's words, but asked a question: [What do you think is God? 】

Hearing this question, Chen Fan was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

After much hesitation, he replied in an uncertain tone, "A life form with great power? ”

A soft electronic synthesized voice sounded in my heart again: [A small human alliance fleet can easily destroy a normal-sized river system. 】

[Even a weaker individual weapon is enough to turn a planet into endless cosmic dust.] 】

[According to your standards, Renlian should be the god in your mouth. 】

The corners of Chen Fan's eyes twitched slightly.

After a moment of silence, he said again, "That...... The gods should be creatures who have mastered the rules of the universe, such as ......"

[Genesis.] 】

[The law weapon with the strongest attack power of the Human Alliance, which is enough to annihilate an entire universe when the energy is sufficient, can also rewrite the underlying physical and mathematical laws of the universe, so as to create a new universe. 】

Chen Fan was dumbfounded.

[Since the development of the Human Federation, there are countless universes of different scales under its jurisdiction, but no so-called gods have been found so far. 】

Of course, this is not to say that civilizations cannot believe in gods. 】

[In the territory of the Human Federation, there are many advanced civilizations with their own beliefs, even if they themselves have a power far beyond the gods. 】

Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully.

Inspired by [One]'s words, a creepy conjecture faintly appeared in his heart:

If the gods of this world are real, will they just be a civilization with more advanced technology?

"Knock knock."

Outside the door, the mother's urging voice came again: "Xiao Fan? ”

"It's coming!"

Chen Fan settled down, put away the groundless conjecture in his heart, got up and walked towards the door.

In the process of getting up, the silver-white intelligent terminal on his right hand also disappeared.

……

More than ten minutes later.

Under the leadership of his mother, Chen Fan completed the daily "check-in" prayer work in front of the statue one by one.

"Mom."

Just as his mother was about to get up from the futon, Chen Fan opened her mouth and shouted, "There is something I want to ask you. ”

The mother knelt on the futon again and turned her head to look at Chen Fan in surprise.

Chen Fan pondered it carefully, and then said in a low voice: "You told me last night...... I'm going to church today? ”

Seeing that his mother nodded in affirmation as a matter of course, Chen Fan showed a little confusion on his face just right:

"But I remember...... Isn't that tomorrow? ”

The mother was stunned, and subconsciously retorted: "How is it possible? ”

"I remember it very well, it was today."

"You told me ...... other day"

"At 12 noon today, the deacon of the church will pick you up and go to church to study."

That's it!

But in the next second, the little joy that had just been revealed in Chen Fan's eyes was completely frozen in an instant.

There is no other reason.

That sentence just now didn't come out of my mother's mouth!

Chen Fan raised his head stiffly and looked at the statue of the god high above, the extremely stiff electronic synthesis sound seemed to still echo in his ears.

Without him asking the question, the idol spoke again!

Beside him, just as last night, his mother was already on her knees, muttering words of thanks to the gods.

At this moment, a sentence that his mother had said last night suddenly came to his mind:

You are the one chosen by God, and God will always watch over you. ’

At first, he subconsciously thought that this sentence was just a religious phrase.

Only now did he really understand that this sentence was a true portrayal!

Chen Fan once again felt the refreshing chill of last night.

The chill was so strong that even the morning sun shining on him through the living room window could not dispel it!

He's watching him!!

This thought grew rapidly in Chen Fan's mind, like a pair of strong and powerful hands, tightly choking his throat!

With his heart beating violently, Chen Fan's breathing began to become rapid!

[Chen Fan, calm down! ] 】

A soft electronic synthesis sound sounded in his mind, interrupting Chen Fan's almost unrestrained thoughts: [This machine suggests that you don't think too much, it's just a god statue made by a low-level civilization, it's not a big deal. 】

"Little Fan?"

On the side, his mother also noticed Chen Fan's strange appearance and cast a confused look at him:

"What's wrong with you?"
