Chapter 70 North Main Church

"So..."

Chen Fan pondered for a moment and asked Yi again: "If the true face of the goddess is artificial intelligence, what level of artificial intelligence should she be?"

Yi did not hesitate: "Of course it is level II artificial intelligence." "

Under normal circumstances, only level II artificial intelligence has the ability to bypass the limitations of the underlying logic through continuous evolution and thus rebel against the creator."

Although he was mentally prepared, when he heard this answer, Chen Fan still felt his heart skip a beat.

Level II artificial intelligence!

According to Yi's description, this thing can even challenge an entire interstellar civilization of the same level!

Is this really a task that he, a trainee investigator who has just taken office, should participate in?

You go and get rid of Tang Monk and his disciples·Interstellar Remake?

"Of course, even with the diary as indirect evidence, this machine still thinks that this possibility is relatively small."

Just when Chen Fan's heart was turbulent, Yi's voice came again, quickly calming the waves in his heart.

"What do you mean?"

"Normally, only civilizations above level 5 have the opportunity to touch the research threshold of level II artificial intelligence."

"Normally? Do you mean there are exceptions?"

"...There are indeed exceptions. The core civilization of the Human Alliance, the human civilization, obtained fully controlled level II artificial intelligence when it was still a level 1 civilization."

Before Chen Fan had a myocardial infarction, Yi added again: "Note, it is acquisition, not research and development."

"So this machine thinks that the possibility of the other party having artificial intelligence is relatively small."

Hearing this, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "So... there may be another truth behind the Varela civilization?"

"In theory, this is the case."

"But this machine still has the responsibility to remind you of the possible risks of relevant decisions. This is the underlying logic of this machine."

The nervous look on Chen Fan's face was relieved a lot, but Yi's words still sounded a warning to him: Even as an employee of the level 9 civilization, he still had to remain vigilant before the Human Alliance Fleet arrived. After all, he was just a fragile carbon-based creature, and he would fall into an irreparable situation if he was not careful.

Moreover...

According to the current situation, it is estimated that the Human Alliance Fleet will not be able to enter this universe for a while.

Of course, this does not mean that everything will be fine if you just wait for the support of the Human Fleet. Apart from anything else, tomorrow's God's Chosen Ceremony alone is a huge trouble.

To survive in this world, his only reliance is the smart terminal in his hand.

Complete the assessment, improve your own authority, and thus enhance your own strength.

This is the right way.

After thinking about this clearly, Chen Fan took a deep breath, and after making enough psychological preparations, he issued an order:

"Begin the reverse invasion."

"Ensure concealment as the primary goal."

"Received."

The electronic synthesized sound fell, and a faint electric light that kept flashing appeared from the gem in the palm of the hand, and quickly extended to the shrine in front of him at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye.

...

The sun at noon was particularly scorching. The molten salt tower in the central area of ​​the four cathedrals was bathed in the sunlight focused by the prisms on the surface of the four cathedrals, shining like a morning star.

Varela City, North Cathedral.

Unlike the other three cathedrals, there was no one around this cathedral.

Even the bishops in purple robes would subconsciously lower their heads and take a detour when passing by this church, not to mention the deacons and priests in white and black robes.

The reason is simple.

In this disturbingly quiet church lives the most respected person in the entire city of Varela - the Pope.

Looking around the entire city of Varela, everyone knows the title of the Pope, but only one person in the entire city has seen the Pope in person.

Ta-ta-ta-ta...

accompanied by a slight mechanical hum, the heavy mechanical prosthesis made a crisp sound as it stepped on the concrete road surface.

A tall figure in a blood-red robe slowly climbed the steps of the North Cathedral, then walked through the tall archway and pushed open the heavy metal door.

The biting cold came from the door, and the inside and outside of the door were like two different worlds.

The archbishop in a blood-red robe had long been accustomed to this huge contrast. He did not pause at all, and he entered the church sideways and closed the metal door again.

After the metal door was closed, the church quickly became dim - there were only a few lighting devices installed inside the church.

The archbishop slowly took off his hood, and his four red-glowing mechanical eyes quickly adapted to the dim environment inside.

In front of him, a series of electronic devices with flashing unknown signal indicators were humming.

Gusts of cool wind came from the soles of his feet, and then rushed to the cabinet-type equipment with flashing indicators.

After a series of invisible processes, the wind quickly blew to the top of the church.

"Your Holiness."

The archbishop calmed down and shouted in a hoarse synthesized voice: "The God's Chosen Ceremony will be held at noon tomorrow."

"Got it."

The loud synthesized voice came from all directions: "The Lord is currently at a critical moment, and the requirements for the Chosen Ones are becoming more and more stringent."

"I'll have to work hard on you in this area."

The archbishop bowed slightly and saluted the cabinet-type equipment with flashing indicator lights in front of him: "This is what I should do."

"In addition, Your Holiness, Isa and Chen Fan..."

The Pope's voice came from all directions again.

"The surveillance of Isa can be revoked."

"As for Chen Fan..."

The Pope's voice paused: "So far, among all the Chosen Ones in history, his compatibility with the oracle is the highest."

"The Lord needs his brain."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

The archbishop nodded hurriedly: "I understand."

"As long as he participates in the God's Chosen Ceremony normally, the church will never do anything that may affect him."

Suddenly, the flashing frequency of the indicator lights on the cabinet-type equipment in front of him suddenly increased several times, and a series of buzzer beeps sounded in the depths of the church.

"Strange..."

The Pope's synthesized voice sounded again.

The archbishop's expression was stern: "Your Holiness?"

"Did the statue send an alarm?"

"No." The Pope's voice was full of confusion, "But it is indeed related to the statue."

"The main control unit of the statue in Dongcheng District just popped up a risk warning, but now it has disappeared."

"Dongcheng District?"

The archbishop was stunned. After thinking that Chen Fan lived in Dongcheng District, alarm bells suddenly rang in his heart: "Your Holiness, could it be Chen Fan..."

"Harold, your thoughts are confused." The Pope interrupted the archbishop's speech, "I said, it was the main control unit of the entire Dongcheng District that issued a risk warning."

"Do you think a mere Chosen One could trigger this level of warning?"

"Then... do I need to ask the Lord's opinion?" The archbishop was silent for a moment, and asked cautiously, "After all, it is a warning from the main control unit..."

"Forget it, the Lord is in a critical period."

The Pope rejected the archbishop's proposal: "The warning information only appeared for a very short time, and it has now returned to normal."

"There should be a problem with the connection of some statues. After the Chosen Ceremony is over, you can take the bishop to check it out."
