Alien Paradise.

Chapter 406 Takeover
Over the next week, the residents of the Acropolis experienced a series of earth-shaking changes.

First, the believers of Paradise Religion heard the call of God almost at the same time.

In the past, the gods would respond to their prayers and even appear to receive their audiences, but that was limited to the temple. This was the first time that an oracle like this was transmitted directly into their minds. The believers who heard the holy voice in person were ecstatic, which meant that they were one step closer to the gods.

It’s just that some people claimed that they heard a young male voice, some heard a pleasant female voice, and some insisted that it was a wise old man. In short, there were all kinds of statements... This made everyone quickly change their concept. The image of the Lord of Paradise is far more than just a winged goddess. He has many different appearances when he walks on earth, and his appearance varies from person to person. It is not a fixed thing.

Secondly, the Acropolis Paradise Church connected with the Paradise Church outside for the first time.

When the believers of Qianlinbao took the train to enter the Acropolis, flags saying "Welcome" were hung everywhere in the city. The acceptance process was so smooth that no one noticed anything unusual. For the local residents, they had long been trying to spread their faith to the outside world, and it was only natural that they had achieved such success today. Some even believed that perhaps some of the believers who did not return did not die outside, but were so focused on preaching that they forgot to go home. Now their efforts have created the Paradise Sect in other cities.

On the contrary, the ones who were really surprised were the visitors coming in from outside.

For example, Xue Quan, Eliz and others.

The former was still an outsider, but Iris and the others were different... As nobles of the Old World, they knew the history of the Acropolis very well, and even followed the expedition team to the Misty Forest five or six days ago. As a result, something unexpected happened halfway, and they temporarily returned to the Thousand Forest Castle to escort the wounded. When they came back, they found that the Acropolis had resurrected, and hundreds of thousands of people not only survived, but also built a prosperous city. This huge contrast seemed a bit exaggerated even in a dream.

This also confirmed one thing for Chaoyang: the fifteen years lost by the Acropolis were only partially recovered - after history was changed, the chain reaction did not spread out, but was tightly confined to this small space by an unknown force. People outside still thought this was a dead city, and there was even a little fog left outside the forest.

Of course... as the "gift" is recovered, all the strange phenomena in the Acropolis will disappear, and communication will no longer be restricted. However, in the short term, the impression that it suddenly "jumped out" cannot be changed.

The arrival of the Qianlinbao leadership team also meant that the leadership of the Paradise Church in the Acropolis began to shift to Chaoyang. This process was also quite smooth - the God of Hidden Mist had no interest in fighting for power, and Enkui and Portland were true believers of the Lord of Paradise. The gods had spoken, so they naturally would not insist that the Acropolis was the birthplace of Paradise.

Because the Acropolis provided a lot of willpower, Chaoyang was able to expand the scope of the kingdom of God of the third avatar to the entire city, allowing the believers here to enjoy the convenience of "interconnection". When the first batch of believers' seals were put into use, he felt that the willpower here was even stronger.

Xue Quan did not come alone.

He was very clear about his purpose. A large number of scientific research team members arrived at the Acropolis with him. After learning about the new energy from Chaoyang, these people immediately started to study the beach caves and warehouse ruins. When local fishermen returned home every day after collecting their nets, they could see a large number of people in long white clothes coming in and out of the cave entrance. However, this time, the cave was no longer a bloody and cruel place. Every resident who was willing to sign up to help the people in white could receive a generous reward.

As for Mekfa and Yukel from Star City, they left without saying goodbye the night that Chaoyang met the God of Hidden Mist. They left in a hurry, not even waiting for the train to be repaired. After spending a lot of money to buy more than ten horses, they headed north.

When these people crossed the city boundary, Shadow asked Chaoyang for his opinion, but Chaoyang did not intend to stop them. Even if these people did not report the news, the news of the resurrection of the Acropolis would quickly spread throughout the continent. Because someone in the capital thousands of miles away had already obtained this exclusive news, which would serve as evidence of the miracle of Paradise and make the headlines of major newspapers.

A week later, Xue Quan came to the church office with dark circles under his eyes.

"Why, haven't you had a good rest recently?" Chaoyang joked. "I only slept three hours every two days." Xue Quan laughed at himself, "I can change to another one when I'm tired, which is already good enough."

It was all because the things found in the cave were too bizarre... Although he was not a scientist, he couldn't rest early until the academicians called for a stop. After all, he was responsible for the mobilization of personnel and materials here.

"Does it work?"

"It works."

"easy to use?"

"This...it's hard to say."

It may sound confusing to others, but Xue Quan knows it well. On the second day after the research team started work, Professor Wang Shengli was sent back to the Beifu Prevention and Control Center by Chaoyang with two glass jars. After exploration, it was found that the brains in these jars are somewhat different from human brains, with more grooves and significantly thicker gray matter, and may belong to a new species. What's even more incredible is that it can operate stably on Earth, and the energy it outputs is neither electrical energy nor thermal energy, but a wave that does not rely on medium transmission. In conjunction with some components found in the warehouse, it can exhibit the characteristics of energy, such as luminescence, mechanical work, and so on. The power of a single glass jar is about one kilowatt.

"It's about the same as an air conditioner... Isn't that useless?" Chaoyang said as he flipped through the report submitted by Xue Quan. The biggest problem with this thing is that we don't know how to mass-produce it. We can't just use our brains everywhere. The area that has been explored so far shows that there are three warehouses behind the metal wall, but only Warehouse No. 1 is mainly used to store glass jars. After counting, the total number is 1,520. If used for lighting, it can barely meet the needs of a city, but that's all.

"That's the case at first glance, but Professor Wang discovered that when multiple glass jars are connected in series, their power increases exponentially, as if their waves are superimposed on each other," Xue Quan explained. "In addition, its durability is also of great concern to experts - nuclear batteries of the same size have less than half the power of this and a lifespan of 50-80 years. If it really needs to be applied, the space field is definitely the most suitable place for it. But if an industrial product cannot be mass-produced, its value will be greatly reduced, so the conclusion given by the experts is: it's hard to say."

Chaoyang nodded, "Any other findings?"

"Hmm... take a look at this." Xue Quan handed over a stack of photos, the images in the photos were pages of yellowed paper. "When we searched the warehouse, we found records with text in a safe. Unfortunately, these texts are very different from the texts people use today, and it will take some time to decipher them. The prevention and control center has already summoned the best language experts and image experts to assist in the translation work. I estimate that there will be progress in one to two months."

"No..." Chaoyang murmured as he looked at the photo, "I can understand these words..."

"Really? What does it say?"

He stroked the photo with his right hand and whispered, "Appear."

The words began to twist, stretch, and reorganize in his eyes, and finally turned into Chinese characters.

——"New World Expedition Memorandum, March 2156, 3."
