With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 48: Lord Bishop, you don’t want to either...

"Is there any misunderstanding in this?"

Faced with Chen Fan's rhetorical question, Bishop Wallis fell silent again.

How should he answer?

Is it possible that during a detailed inspection, the church discovered prohibited information in the pages of the book?
But the problem is... when the church got the banned book, there were no signs of any human damage on the mezzanine!
Under the gorgeous hood, a pair of mechanical prosthetic eyes flashing with red light stared at Chen Fan, whose face was full of innocence and confusion.

Previously, during the third oracle ceremony, he had a good impression of this chosen one - if he could remain calm during the oracle ceremony, this chosen person would definitely be able to satisfy the goddess.

But now, Bishop Wallis, who had repeatedly hit the wall, looked at the face not far away and felt a wave of irritation in his heart.

Putting aside Gao Yuan for now, he has always been this unconventional person. With Isa’s uncharacteristic behavior, it is absolutely unbelievable to say that no one was behind it!

There is a problem, there is definitely a problem!
Wallis had already guessed who was behind the scenes - there was no doubt that it was the seemingly harmless Chosen One, Chen Fan!

But...he couldn't produce any evidence.

No matter how many suspicions he has in his heart, in the absence of evidence, his identity as the God's Chosen One is Chen Fan's best protection.

The ceremony of divine surrender is coming soon. Not to mention the bishop and archbishop, even the pope cannot attack the chosen one for no reason!
"may be."

Bishop Wallis suppressed the anxiety in his heart and took half a step back: "Your Excellency Chen Fan, what you said makes sense."

Although his heart was filled with joy, Chen Fan still maintained the original innocence and confusion on his face.

Bishop Wallis and the Archbishop could not imagine that he had read the forbidden information in the interlayer of the book without destroying it.

Coupled with the information provided by Isa and Gao Yuan, Bishop Wallis's vague statement could not have the slightest impact on Chen Fan, who has a "God's perspective"!

Wallis looked at Chen Fan, who didn't show any flaws, and felt disappointed.

This farce should end here, right?

the answer is negative.

If it were at the beginning of time travel, facing a completely unfamiliar environment, Chen Fan might choose to stop there in exchange for more benefits.

but now……

Varela's calendar is about to change, and coupled with the incident of banned books, the triggering time for the conflict between him and the church has been greatly advanced.

In order to ensure that the church does not continue to cause trouble for him, and to ensure that the next plan is implemented smoothly, he must use his identity as the God's Chosen One to put pressure on the Church - although the Church's attitude towards the God's Chosen One has always been somewhat vague, but the God's Chosen One It still has a very high status in legal terms.

Besides...who knows how long he can be the Chosen One? Wouldn't it be a waste if he doesn't use this status to do anything anymore?

Thinking like this, Chen Fan's face showed just the right amount of understanding and grief:

"My Lord Bishop, although I don't know much about banned books, I can still understand your difficulties."

"But...have you ever thought about something?"

"Why are there prohibited books in the church's library?"

"My Lord Bishop, please be sure to investigate this matter. Once left unchecked, this may cause irreparable harm to all God's Chosen Ones."

"You don't want all the chosen ones to be called sinners, right?"

Wallis's expression suddenly changed.

But if you think about it carefully, this is indeed a huge hidden danger - every chosen one can enter and leave the library freely. What if there are other banned books in it? What if this matter becomes known to the whole city? …

Threat, this is a naked threat!
Seeing the faint smile on Chen Fan's face, Wallis suddenly felt a chill rising along his mechanical spine.

"……I see."

"Your Excellency Chen Fan, please rest assured that the church will definitely give you an explanation."

Voss used his mechanical prosthetic eyes to look at Chen Fan carefully again, then turned around and waved, leading a group of priests and guards toward the gate:
"Let's go back to the main church."

……

After watching the priests leave, Chen Fan returned to his room expressionlessly.

It wasn't until the moment he closed the door that Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He held the back of the chair beside him and slowly sat on the wooden chair in the room. He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed in a low voice: "It should be fine now."

"Lao Gao, I guess the church won't have time to trouble us these days."

"In the past few days?" A soft voice came from behind, "You mean the church will still give you trouble in a few days?"

No, in a few days it might not be as simple as looking for trouble - the Chosen Ones defected, and the battles would be much bigger than now.

Just when Chen Fan was about to explain, he suddenly realized a question: Where the hell did that soft sound come from in this room?

"...Isa? Why are you still here?!"

Chen Fan lowered his head and happened to see Little Potato, who was carefully standing by the closed door, her figure perfectly covered by the black priest robe: "Shouldn't you follow Bishop Wallis back to the church?!"

"..."

silence.

After dozens of seconds of silence, Chen Fan saw the large sacrificial robe in front of him trembling slightly: "...Yes, is that so?"

A confused voice came from beneath the black hood.

"But didn't Bishop Wallis just strip me of my priesthood?"

Chen Fan: "..."

Don't talk about it, it seems that this is really the case.

This is trouble.

Looking at Isa who was silently shrinking in the corner of the room, Chen Fan raised his hand and scratched the back of his head.

Let Issa go back to church?

This will definitely not work.

Bishop Wallis had just been frustrated on his side, so he might be very angry now!

If he were Bishop Wallis, he would definitely vent his anger on the "culprit" Isa. After all, she was the one who leaked the church's secrets.

Then...let Isha stay at home?

This seems to be a bit of a problem.

Let’s talk about Gao Yuan first. As the chosen one, he only wants to bring order to the chaos and lead the church in the “right” direction of development.

As for himself, he is also the Chosen One, but he is always thinking about how to avoid the Chosen Ceremony, how to get rid of the control of the church, how to escape from Varela City...

Listen, does this sound right?

If Isa were to know the true situation between the two of them...

"Who is that, Isa, right?"

Before Chen Fan could figure out the follow-up operations, Gao Yuan's voice came from the side: "Since the church doesn't want you anymore, why don't you just follow us?"

"The current church is too deformed. Let's look for opportunities to overthrow it and put the church on the right path."

"Then what...people-oriented! Yes, people-oriented!"

"How about it? Think about it, please?"

Chen Fan: "...???"

Isa: "?!!"

Seeing the horrified scene of Isa taking half a step back out of shock and pressing her thin body against the door, Chen Fan twitched the corner of his mouth and said in a stiff tone:

"How about... would you like me to explain to you the idea of ​​putting people first?"
