This kind of person is best suited to be a pebble used for scouting.

Serones himself probably didn't realize that his "fearless advice" was actually a test of Caesar's attitude on behalf of the entire priesthood.

"........."

Forros was silent for a moment, then sighed.

"If Caesar wishes to punish, please punish only me."

Lin Si waved her hand, not looking at him, but raising her head and looking back at the glowing sphere that was being carried by Ke Fale.

"Tell me, how long has Kefaller been carrying the sun on his back?"

Forros remained silent for a moment, as if calculating the time, or perhaps considering whether he should answer.

"It has been 152 years since then."

His voice was a little lower than before.

Lin Si nodded. Then she asked the second question.

Is there a time limit to the use of the sun that Cefalé is carrying?

The dark figure led him here, and he deduced that saving Onfaros and fighting against the Eternal Night might be closely related.

Therefore, it is not difficult to deduce that the sun that this Cephalo was carrying may have a time limit.

After all, even the real sun has a lifespan, and even stars will eventually burn out.

And whatever this sphere is, how could it possibly not have a lifespan?

The wind at Dawn Cliff seemed to be blowing even louder.

"........."

Forros remained silent for a long time.

His gaze was lowered. As the High Priest of Dawn Cloud Cliff, he had heard a divine prophecy at the moment when Kephale sacrificed himself and carried the Dawn Machine.

According to Kefaller, the Dawn Machine can only last for three hundred years.

Three hundred years.

This number was like a thorn stuck in his heart for a full 152 years.

He knew that the dawn of the Holy City would one day be extinguished, and he knew what that day would mean, but he did not have the courage to tell anyone this message.

He simply did not have the courage to cruelly etch the countdown to the dawn of the holy city into the hearts of the people.

Now, Caesar asked that question.

Forros took a deep breath.

He raised his head, met Caesar's gaze for a moment, and then looked down again.

"I have no idea."

His voice was very soft, as if it were squeezed out from his throat.

Lin Si understood his reaction.

As expected, there is a time limit.

Moreover, this time limit may not be very long.

Judging from Frost's reaction, he clearly knew about it, but for some reason, he hadn't told anyone.

As a high priest, if he really didn't know, he would definitely just say 'keep it lit forever'.

Just look at Serones' attitude towards Cephale.

The entire priesthood's faith in Kephale was unwavering and without any doubt.

Frost's rank is higher than that of the High Priest. If the Dawn Machine can really burn forever, how could he not dare to say the word 'forever'?

He dared not say it.

That means that the so-called 'forever' actually has a time limit.

Deep down, Krystra's brows furrowed.

She sensed the hesitation in Forros's three words and also saw the 'I understand' expression on Lin Si's face.

What Lin Si can see, Krydella can naturally see as well.

"Does the Dawn Machine have a time limit?"

She repeated the thought to herself.

She had never really thought about that.

In the hearts of the Onpharos, the Titans were omnipotent beings.

It was precisely because of this deep-rooted awe that she chose to believe in the words of the Titans and embark on the journey to seek fire, attempting to break people's blind worship of the Titans.

Because without breaking this awe and worship, people will always place their hopes on the gods, instead of truly standing up and living for themselves.

For Kefaller, the dawn that he voluntarily sacrificed himself for is, in everyone's heart, something eternal, unshakable, and that will continue until the end of the world.

No one would question whether it has a time limit.

Even she had never thought of it that way.

But Frost's reaction forced her to start thinking about another possibility.

Kefaller ignited the Dawn Machine by burning his own embers.

This is something everyone in Onfaros knows.

Does that mean that the sparks of other Titans can also be used to ignite the Dawn Machines?

If the answer is yes, then she must hunt for those fires.

One Titan's spark isn't enough, then two will do.

Two aren't enough, so let's have four.

Until this ignited dawn can illuminate the entirety of Onfaros.

"So this is what the 'recreation of the world and the end of the eternal night and the black tide' in the words of the Destiny Banner means? To entrust the spark to the Dawn Machine, so that it may burn forever?"

Krystra murmured softly.

Although Tibo said she would return the fire to the 'Creation Vortex', she doesn't know what the Creation Vortex actually is.

Ting could use the Hundred Realms Gate to take her there, but because the energy required to go to the Creation Vortex is too enormous, the opportunity may only be once.

So she planned to go to the Genesis Vortex after collecting all the sparks.

If we combine Tibbs's prophecy with Frost's reaction, then the Dawn Machine is the Genesis Vortex?

That makes some sense, but it can't be confirmed yet.

She suddenly understood the meaning of what Lin Si had said earlier.

The public needs to know what happens without the sun and to understand the true meaning behind what Kefaller did.

Only in this way will people not shrink back out of fear or resist the unknown when the journey of 'chasing fire' begins.

"So that's how it is. You're also one of the Fire Chasers."

Lin Si's various actions and remarks do indeed conform to what the 'Golden Descendants' in Tirissa's prophecy would do.

She sighed.

"It seems that chasing the fire is now extremely urgent!"

Chapter 296 Pay-to-Win!

"Forros".

Lin Si looked at him,

"I don't need you to tell me the answer now."

"But you need to know,"

He paused for a moment.

"Some things can be hidden for a while, but not forever."

"When that day really comes, those who are unprepared will suffer more than those who already know the truth."

Forros paused for a moment.

Caesar might actually know something.

When the thought crossed his mind, he felt a surge of complex emotions, unable to distinguish whether it was fear or relief, worry or peace of mind.

The secret he kept for 152 years was like a heavy stone pressing on his chest.

Every day as he walked on the stone path of Liming Yunya, looking at the people of Qianzhangji and the children offering sacrifices in front of the altar, he would think of that number: three hundred years.

One hundred and fifty-two years have passed, and one hundred and forty-eight years remain.

He didn't know what would happen when that day came.

He dared not think about it.

But now, Caesar knows.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, all her questions pointed in the same direction.

The secret was no longer his sole responsibility.

And the fact that Caesar asked about this suggests that she might have some solutions.

Frost slowly exhaled.

His shoulders relaxed slightly, as if a taut string had finally been loosened.

But he still didn't have the courage to speak his mind directly, and just nodded, his voice trembling slightly.

"I...I understand."

Lin Si didn't say anything more, turned around, and walked towards the elevator.

Heather quietly followed in his footsteps.

The lifting platform slowly rises.

The wind whistled past my ears, and the outline of the carver slowly shrank in my field of vision. The luminous sphere that was being carried gradually receded back to the height of the horizon, becoming a relief embedded in the distance once again.

Lin Si stood at the edge of the elevator platform, her mind racing with calculations.

"We'll need to buy a planetary-level light source after we get out."

He muttered something to himself.

It is not difficult to fight against the eternal night.

He can just go out and buy a light source and bring it in, and that'll be it.

With the technological level of interstellar civilizations, there are plenty of solutions to illuminate a planet.

Orbital lighting arrays, artificial sky satellites, atmospheric lighting reconstruction...

Either one of them could illuminate the entire Onfaros brightly.

But this amount of money to spend...

"Isn't it a bit too big?"

He sighed.

The light source that covered the entire Onfaros was on a completely different scale from the energy weapon blueprints we had bought before.

Those energy guns, energy swords, tanks, and missiles are at best 'high-end toys'.

A planetary-level light source is an 'infrastructure project'.

He himself felt it was a bit wasteful to spend so much money on a game.

Even if this is Ahha's game.

Even though he was quite wealthy.
