Chapter 273 Prayer Experiment
Chapter 273 Prayer Experiment
"Lord Governor?"
Isa looked at Linde, who looked as if he had seen a ghost after the prayer, and asked cautiously.
At this time, Linde turned his head to look at Isa, and remembered Isa's previous oracle with a strange style.
I had a preconceived notion and thought that the oracle was just a sentence.
It was indeed one sentence, but it was spoken in three different languages. I thought the three sentences were a whole, so I didn't notice Isa's somewhat poor Mandarin.
"Governor, have you also heard the oracle of the goddess?"
Just by looking at Lind's expression, Isa had guessed that Lind must have heard the goddess' voice, but Lind's reaction was even more exaggerated than Isa had imagined.
Linde did not answer directly, but asked: "Isa, what do you think the goddess is? Or what is the god?"
"Governor, is this question a bit..."
Originally, Isa could discuss these issues with Lind very rationally, but now the goddess has really started to respond to believers again, forcing Isa to become devout. Could it be that the goddess has discovered that the governor is fleecing the goddess to make holy water?
Looking at the hesitant Isa, Linde didn't say anything else, but prayed again, but this time, Linde prayed directly in Chinese in his heart.
"Goddess, it will take time to restart the query."
The cold synthetic voice rang out in Linde's mind again: "Request received. System self-checking. Restart will take about fourteen calendar days."
Two weeks, this time was so close that it was beyond Lind's imagination. After two weeks, the system called the Goddess was successfully restarted.
In fact, when Lind heard the lantern dream saying that the goddess could automatically respond to believers after falling asleep, he had a similar guess in his mind, but Lind thought at the time that the goddess was a product of this worldview, a creature similar to artificial intelligence, or something similar to artificial intelligence created by the goddess in her sleeping state.
But Lind didn't expect that the goddess might really be an artificial intelligence system, and even the default languages are Chinese, English and Russian.
This directly took Lind from the magical worldview to science fiction, no, it went straight to the golden age.
Lind then continued to ask the goddess a few questions in a state of prayer: "Goddess, where are you now?"
Lind even omitted the honorifics, but the synthesized voice in his mind still responded: "The system is restarting, please try again later."
The following questions received similar answers. It seemed that Lind would not be able to get more information before the goddess completed her restart.
After standing up, Lind looked up at the ceiling of the prayer room. The goddess is an artificial intelligence system, so what are the other gods?
"Isa, do you know how to pray to other gods?"
Hearing this question, Isa, who was familiar with Lind's beliefs, immediately understood what Lind had discovered through prayer, and began to teach Lind the prayer methods of other religions she knew.
Lind tried them one by one and found no response.
Is it because I claim to be a shallow believer of the goddess, rather than a believer of other gods?
If I use Chinese, English and Russian to speak to other gods, can I also get a response?
Lind turned to Isa and ordered, "Tell the church to ask the Central Church whether they have received any new oracle from the goddess and see what the situation is at the Central Church."
After Isa left, Lind said to the shadows, "Pay attention to all public opinions about the goddess, especially those from the Central Church. Report any new findings immediately, and ask Lantern Dream to come over."
"Spread the news that our Northern Church received the Goddess' oracle first, along with the contents of the oracle."
The so-called content was of course just simple syllables. After confirming the pronunciation, Lucanus bowed and left in the shadows.
Linde returned to his office without stopping.
Looking at Lind who was rushing towards her, Tia, who was still eating chips and reading a book, asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Seeing that Linde's expression was completely different from before and he was approaching her, Tia immediately sat up straight and asked nervously, "What do you want to do? I warn you, I have many restrictions on me. If you mess around..."
Although she said this, Tia did not move at all and let Linde hold her shoulders.
Linde said seriously, "Tia, you are a devout believer in the God of Nature, right?"
Tia, who hadn't figured out what was going on, could only nod blankly.
"How does it compare to my level of faith in the Goddess?"
Tia was so angry that she laughed when she heard this. Anyone who is a little familiar with Lind would know that he might not even be considered a shallow believer. The most he believed in the goddess was probably the guilt he felt for making holy water and taking advantage of her.
"What do you say? Can you please take your hands away first?"
Lind then realized that he was a little too excited. After letting go, he returned to his desk and wrote down a few syllables with a pen and paper. If Lilith was next to him, she would be able to recognize these syllables as the syllables of the oracle read out using the approximate pronunciation of the common language.
But then Lind stopped writing again. What would be the use if Tia herself didn't know the meaning of these syllables?
So Lind turned to the confused Tia and said, "Come here, I will teach you a new language."
"Not interested in."
Tia patted her shoulder and wanted to lie back on the sofa.
"This concerns the God of Nature. It's very important!"
But Tia just rolled her eyes at Linde and lay down on her own.
"If you don't get up, I'll send you back."
Hearing this, Tia immediately jumped up and stood up straight.
It seems that the God of Nature is not as effective as Avilia for Tia, which makes Lind a little worried. Is Tia really pious enough? Never mind, as long as she is more pious than me.
Next, Lind simply taught Tia a few Chinese pronunciations but did not explain the meanings. Tia was scratching her head as she looked at the teaching materials Lind had prepared on the spur of the moment. Lind only taught the meanings of the characters and did not even teach the pinyin. Although Tia knew how to pronounce the characters, she had no idea what they meant.
But this was enough. Next, Lind asked Tia to pray to the God of Nature in this language. Seeing Lind's serious expression, Tia finally did it.
During the prayer, Tia silently said in Chinese: "Great God of Nature, your devout believer asks you to inquire about your own condition."
Then Tia prayed again according to the complete process, stood up, looked at Lind's expectant eyes and said, "No response."
"Then I will tell you what this sentence means. Try to pray it again."
After that, Lind explained to Tia what this sentence meant, and even taught her the basic meaning of some bytes.
Dia, who had no idea what she was learning, nor how important this thing would be in the future, shook her head again and said, "Still no response."
"No response?"
Linde lowered his head and thought.
But Tia spread her hands and complained, "Isn't this natural? The God of Nature would not respond to His believers casually, let alone in a language that has never been heard of."
"Do not."
Linde said silently: "Maybe the God of Nature and the Goddess of Nature are not the same thing at all."
Tia rolled her eyes. What happened to Lind today? Was he infected by the evil cultists in the lantern dream?
