"What's wrong with you, Priest?!"
Before Chen Fan could react, Gao Yuan's angry voice had already sounded.
Gao Yuan, who had been holding back his anger during the "security check," vented all his frustration on the petite female priest in front of him.
For a priest, offending a God Chosen was a grave sin.
To put it lightly, it was insubordination, and a heavy punishment was unavoidable.
To put it more seriously...
It was attempting to harm a God Chosen, with suspicion of being a heretic!
Because of this, the silver-haired female priest didn't even bother to tidy her slightly messy silver hair or put on her fallen black hood.
Enduring the pain, she scrambled up from the ground and then bowed to the two God Chosen, begging for mercy.
"Sirs, I, I didn't mean to."
"The Goddess sent down a Divine Decree, and it happened so suddenly, so I didn't notice..."
A soft, sweet voice entered Chen Fan's ears.
Perhaps thinking of the punishment she would face, her soft voice trembled slightly.
Not only that, her petite body, hidden by the wide black robe, also trembled slightly.
Chen Fan couldn't help but frown.
This soft, sweet voice, this wide black robe, and petite figure...
It seemed a little familiar.
Chen Fan quickly found this figure in his memory—
Wasn't this the clumsy little priest who led the way for Gao Yuan before the Third Divine Decree began!
Oh!
It was an acquaintance!
Gao Yuan beside him didn't recognize the priest. He snorted coldly, seemingly wanting to say something more.
"Old Gao, that's enough."
Chen Fan spoke, interrupting Gao Yuan's intention: "I was thinking about some issues in the Library just now, so I wasn't paying attention to the road."
"Ultimately, it's my own problem."
"Besides, it was just a bump, there's no need to vent your anger on a small priest."
Gao Yuan was startled, and the anger on his face quickly dissipated.
Although he was usually a bit reckless, as a God Chosen, his intelligence was definitely up to par.
He understood the meaning behind Chen Fan's words:
On one hand, the amnesiac Chen Fan needed to keep a low profile; the fewer people who paid attention, the safer he would be.
On the other hand...
Chen Fan indeed had a very important question to ask him.
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan snorted coldly again, swallowing the words that were about to come out.
"Alright, you can go."
The silver-haired female priest looked up at Chen Fan, seemingly unable to believe what she had heard.
"If I remember correctly, you were the priest who led the way for Old Gao earlier, right?"
"Yes, you can call me Isa."
Chen Fan waved his hand: "In the name of the Lord, I absolve you of your sin."
Realizing that she had narrowly escaped a disaster, the silver-haired female priest Isa's eyes welled up slightly: "Thank you for your kindness!"
She pursed her slightly pale lips, her face serious: "Sir, you are a good person."
"May the Lord be with you."
Chen Fan's eye twitched.
That wasn't a good thing to say!
"No, I'm not."
Chen Fan replied with a serious face as well.
Isa: ?
"No, you are definitely a good person."
"After arriving in the God Kingdom, the Lord will definitely like you."
Damn.
Good people should be liked by the Lord?
Why would you curse someone out of the blue!
Returning kindness with enmity, are you!
Chen Fan immediately got anxious: "I'm really not a good person!"
"Gao Yuan is the good person!"
Gao Yuan: "?"
Isa: "???"
She blinked her right eye, then quietly rotated her delicate mechanical left eye.
She couldn't quite understand the reason behind it.
Could this be the difference between her and a God Chosen?
"Sir, you are truly humble."
The silver-haired Priest's expression turned serious, her soft voice carrying a hint of reverence: "I should learn from you."
Chen Fan: "..."
It's over, I can't explain it clearly.
He sighed softly, and somewhat powerlessly pointed a finger at Isa's slightly messy silver hair.
Only then did the hasty Priest realize there was something wrong with her appearance.
Being disheveled was a great sin in the Church, a sign of disrespect towards the God.
She let out a small gasp, then extended a pair of slender mechanical prosthetics from beneath her black robe, frantically tidying the messy silver hair scattered in front of her.
Under Chen Fan's gaze, after simply tidying her hair, she fumbled to pull the fallen hood back over her head, hiding her beautiful face beneath the wide black robe.
"One more thing."
Only after the Priest had finished tidying her appearance did Chen Fan speak again: "You just mentioned the Goddess has sent down a Divine Decree, right?"
The wide black hood nodded up and down, a strand of silver-white hair quietly peeking out from beneath the hood.
"Yes."
Unlike before, Isa's voice was now extremely serious.
"The Archbishop personally announced it."
"The Goddess has already sent down a Divine Decree."
"Varrela Calendar 160 will begin in three days."
"That's too fast..."
Just after walking out of the East Main Church, Gao Yuan couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Fast? What do you mean by that?"
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, a strong premonition appearing in his heart.
Here it comes, the information baby is going to spill information again!
As expected, it didn't go beyond Chen Fan's expectations.
Gao Yuan first turned his head and scanned the surroundings, and after finding almost no robed clergy nearby, he whispered: "It's now Old Calendar 2067, July 19th."
"Do you remember when the Varrela Calendar last changed?"
Chen Fan glanced at Gao Yuan speechlessly.
If he knew, would he need to ask?
After building up the suspense, Gao Yuan said cheerfully: "Old Calendar 2067, January 3rd."
"Didn't expect that, did you?"
"In just a few months, the Varrela Calendar has passed a year."
Chen Fan nodded calmly: "It is a bit unexpected..."
"A bit unexpected?" Gao Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Do you know how long the first year of the Varrela Calendar lasted?"
"A full 10 Old Calendar years!"
This time, Chen Fan's face showed genuine surprise.
He's right.
One's voice sounded at just the right moment, and at the same time, a familiar holographic image appeared before his eyes.
This unit found the specific change times of the Varrela Calendar in the scanned documents. Among them, the time for the first year of the Varrela Calendar was the longest, lasting a full 10 Old Calendar years and 139 Old Calendar days. Varrela Calendar 159 was the shortest, lasting only 200 Old Calendar days. This unit has performed simple processing on these data.
As the words fell, a deep blue chart quickly appeared before his eyes.
It was a curve that was steadily declining.
Although there were slight rebounds in the process, the overall trend was indeed continuously decreasing.
Based on this trend, by the time the Varrela Calendar reaches 220-250 years, it's estimated that one Old Calendar day will equal one Varrela year.
Looking at the prediction curve that suddenly accelerated downwards towards the bottom, Chen Fan couldn't help but gasp.
There must be something strange when things are abnormal.
Behind such a bizarre calendar, there must be a reason causing its strangeness!
