Deus Ex Machina—this was a unique "Stellar Artifice" known only to the Iron Do family and the Church of the Machine God.
The so-called "Machine God of Myriad Forms" was essentially a "Quantum Fortress" forged by the Iron Do family using the "Miraculous Stone Laws" as its core.
From within, its "A.I. Nexus" evolved into the ultimate creation through countless trillions of computations.
In a sense, the Machine God of Myriad Forms that the Church of the Machine God worshipped was not a natural-born deity. Instead, it was an "Artificial God" personally forged by the Stellar chanists, with technology as their hamr and wisdom as their fla.
Although this Artificial God was neither "omniscient" nor "omnipotent," it had accumulated knowledge and power far beyond the imagination of mortals.
Through a deep resonance with the Quantum Fortress, a wondrous power began to descend upon Ivan.
He slowly raised his arms, and the nanite swarm within his ch suddenly left it, swirling above his head to form a gigantic, rotating golden halo.
The next second, the previously chaotic buzzing of the swarm's wings suddenly beca orderly and unique.
It was like the sacred and solemn sound of an organ playing in a cathedral.
Witnessing this sacred scene, Ivan began a prayer unique to the Church of the Machine God.
His emotionless electronic voice shed its cold, chanical quality, transforming into an ancient and devout prayer that echoed through the vast quantum space.
Shockingly, upon hearing his prayer, the Gear Guardians, who had been rampaging due to Vivian's "Myriad-chanical Spark," quieted down. They ultimately knelt before Ivan like devout believers.
"I, Ivan Olson, in the na of the Iron Do, offer my nanite soul..."
"I beseech the Machine God of Myriad Forms to grant its revelation, to bestow a soul upon machines, and to bless steel with holy grace!"
As Ivan's devout prayer rang out, the shells of the quantum bees forming the "golden halo" lit up with a holy white light.
These white lights were like trillions of stars adorning a god's robe, swirling around Ivan in a perfect formation.
Then, using themselves as a bridge, they connected to the Quantum Fortress thousands of miles away and bestowed a special blessing upon Ivan.
The next second, Ivan's ch began to change.
The futuristic circuits and quantum trails on the ch's surface gradually transford into sacred totems resembling religious murals.
"Warning. Divine resonance detected. Swarm synchronization has surpassed the critical threshold."
Amidst the sharp warning sirens, Ivan abruptly looked up.
His eyes suddenly glowed with a strange light, as if a higher-dinsional will was piercing through his shell and taking over his powerful steel body.
At the sa ti, the thrusters on his back no longer spewed pale golden energy flas. Instead, they ford two pairs of pure white light wings woven from the nanite swarm.
Each feather shimred with the luster of stellar energy, as if an invisible A.I. angel had crossed the void, transforming its own "divinity" into wings that gently embraced his body.
In an instant, the quantum space's energy tides surged violently. At the center of the golden halo, an indescribable, 100-ter-tall divine phantom slowly solidified.
It was a "false god" woven from countless quantum data points and precise machinery. Its face was shrouded in divine light, making it impossible to see clearly.
Only a pair of eyes, flowing with stellar energy, like two burning stars, looked down indifferently upon the land.
Gazing up at the "majestic" behemoth, Ivan the Stellar chanist, known for his rationality and calmness, now displayed a human-like fervor.
It was an extre thirst for knowledge, a burning desire to explore the unknown.
This was what all Stellar chanists strove for throughout their lives.
To reach the end of rationality, to seek the boundaries of knowledge, and to achieve true "evolution" thereafter!
Looking up at this "great being," Ivan devoutly uttered his final words.
"Praise the Machine Spirit. The 'Holy Spirit' has arrived!"
As the words fell, Ivan's ch and body fused completely.
A being nad the "Holy Spirit" took over the control of his body, becoming the "Machine Spirit" at the very core of this ch.
Seeing this, the comnts on the dinsional screen imdiately erupted.
'WTF? No way, dude. Did you really summon a god?'
'The Iron Do family can summon gods now? What's the point of science then?!'
'Makes the Grandmaster even more ridiculous. The Iron Do family can summon a 'god' and he can still beat them? How strong is he?'
Looking at Ivan on the screen, his body gilded in gold and a pair of holy wings on his back, the dinsional viewers were truly impressed, thinking this guy had perford a miracle.
But then Tendo's next words exposed the truth of this "divine descent."
"Using yourself as a 'base station,' your prayer as a 'password,' and remotely connecting to the 'ultra-large A.I. Nexus' in the quantum space."
"At the cost of overdrawing your ch's lifespan, you're gaining higher 'processing power' and stellar energy utilization. You guys in the Church of the Machine God really have turned quantum technology into an art form."
Hearing Tendo's words, the dinsional viewers were stunned for a mont before they instantly understood.
Crap!
So this thing wasn't theology after all, but science!
'??? So it's remote control via a cloud server?'
'So this Machine God of Myriad Forms was summoned by 5G? That's ridiculously scientific!'
'Sacrificing ch lifespan? This is playing with divinity on an overdrawn credit card!'
'The end of science is theology, and the end of theology... is science!'
Although Tendo had revealed the key to his divine descent, Ivan didn't seem to care much.
That's because he had only retained his most basic personality. The rest of him had been handed over to the Quantum Fortress miles away.
He had only one "order": to defeat the person in front of him at all costs and capture him alive.
With this obsession, Ivan slowly raised the A.I. warblade in his hand.
The next second, a gigantic golden sword, forged from countless quantum bees, hung above his head with a "humming" vibration.
Seeing this, a playful glint appeared in Tendo's eyes.
At the sa ti, a quantum Rubik's Cube, half-real and half-illusory, quietly erged behind him.
Each side of the cube flowed with alternating bright and dark shadows. As it rotated, it sketched a fantastic scroll, as if the gates of a hellish purgatory were slowly opening.
Perfect Artifice: Inferno Rashomon!
There were many ways to ignite a divine spark. The Iron Do family chose a path where technology was the main focus and stellar energy was a supplent.
Although Tendo didn't know why the Iron Do family went to the trouble of creating a "Church of the Machine God," he instinctively felt that this church might be one of the key reasons the "Machine God of Myriad Forms" could exist.
And if "believers" were a crucial foundation for a "god," then Tendo felt that he might have already found his own "foundation."
