They all call me an Outer God.

This move made many people burst into laughter, and Ria couldn't help but laugh as well, raising her hand to pat Raven's head: "Since you have this intention to build a church, the moment the church is established, you will be the archbishop."

"Really!? You don't object?"

Ria chuckled: "Why would I object?"

"awesome!!!"

Raven was overjoyed, then saw Ria hand him a card: "If you need money, just use this. Use it as much as you want. Don't worry about money."

You must always remember that we are a church in charge of trade; we cannot lack money.

"Ok!"

Raven's eyes shone even brighter, his adoration for Ria reaching an unparalleled level. However, James's mood seemed off no matter how you looked at him. He rummaged through his feathers with his beak and finally flew into a rage.

"Kelcha! That's my last card!"

"Really? I don't believe it."

"I am going to kill you!"

The crows started chasing Ria again, and then Little Swarth angrily chased after the crows, with Raven following behind. The other plague doctors were beating up the Hephaestus, who were cheering Ria on.

Leilana and the others watched the spectacle from the sidelines. As she watched, she exclaimed, "It's simply a world-famous painting!"

"What a mess!"

As if afraid the scene wasn't chaotic enough, a disheveled, thin, middle-aged man came running up, panting, holding a pale blue, glowing key in his hand as he ran and shouted.

"Mr. Kelcha, you left something behind. I forgot to give it to you!"

Dr. Jack rushed over shouting. The thing in his hand was something his advisor had specifically asked him to give to Ria, but everyone was so busy at the time that he forgot about it after the meeting. He wouldn't have remembered it if his colleague hadn't reminded him.

Without hesitation, Dr. Jack took off his work clothes and brown leather shoes, put on running shoes, and planned to personally deliver the item to Ria. However, as soon as he found Ria, he was staring at a large group of people in bewilderment.

Lia stopped what she was doing, coughed twice to ease the awkwardness, and stepped forward to take the key.

"This is?"

"It is the mysterious item left to you by your mentor, the Key of Compassion. Using it will summon a door in front of you, allowing you to travel through any space twice, but only twice. After that, the Key of Compassion will automatically shatter and make you weep for a year."

But my mentor had already thought of a solution! He gave me another mysterious item: a gold-plated ring.

The gold-plated ring: Because the wearer obtained this item without spending much money, and used the counterfeit gold jewelry to attend high-society banquets and win the princess's favor, he laughed wildly for a year and eventually laughed himself to death.

"Wearing the gilded ring when the Key of Compassion is broken will cancel out the side effects. That's all I have to say."

After Dr. Jack finished speaking, he prepared to leave. He seemed to be somewhat socially awkward and not used to being in such a crowded and noisy place, especially since the identities of the people here were all quite frightening.

James stared intently at him: "I smell my pay card on you."

"Are you a dog?" Ria told Dr. Jack to leave immediately, then tapped James's beak with her cane. After a while, James stopped all movement and began to examine the mysterious object in her hand.

If he could reach Barkley quickly using the Key of Compassion, he wouldn't have to waste another fifteen days, which would be a great help to him.

My mentor has always been very well-prepared; in fact, he has always been like a qualified elder.

“Praise your mentor.”

Lia silently murmured a prayer, then bid farewell to everyone present and used the key in her hand to summon the door. Standing before the round, dark hole that could hardly be called a "door," the young man fell into a moment of contemplation: "This thing shouldn't have any copyright issues, right?"

Everyone was saying goodbye to Lia, and Lia slowly scanned their faces. People who would never have stood together were now standing together in order to fight against a common enemy.

I don't know what it will be like when we meet again, but the fact that time has stopped at this moment is already precious.

"Well then, goodbye everyone."

He took off his hat to greet everyone, while little Swarth still wanted to transform into a dragon as they had originally agreed, following behind Ria and squeezing himself into the doorway.

The dark door then disappeared.

The moment Ria disappeared, the Hephaestus and his men took off running, while the plague healers continued their pursuit, slashing and hacking with their scalpels. Lelana produced a cup of black tea from somewhere and began to savor it: "I think the design of the church needs to combine elements of the past and present. For that, we need to go to the palace to find inspiration."

"Whatever, I'm sleepy." Saler turned around to find a place to sleep, but Leilana picked him up and lifted him high: "Come with me to visit the royal family, I'll be scared if I go alone as a girl."

"Let me go! Let me go, you foolish woman!"

"Me, me, me! I want to go too!" Amigana was afraid that the two of them would leave her behind, so she rushed over. Raven also wanted to join them, so he volunteered to be their guide.

The group formed a new four-person team, although, according to Salle, their friendship was fragile.

No one knows whether this is good or bad advice; you can just take Saller's words in reverse.

"Their friendship is unbreakable."

…………

……

"Welcome, great Titan."

"Praise be to you, valiant king, leader of war."

"Heroic warriors, we pray for your appearance, we pray that your arrival will bring peace to the people of this desolate land."

"It's here! It's here! It's here!"

"Hanu God, appear, appear, appear!"

Outside the city of Barkley, in the ruins of a temple, the rows of pillars cast long shadows in the setting sun, enveloping the people inside in a crimson gloom.

Those people, dressed in gray and white cloth and holding spears, were circling a sacrificial circle drawn with blood. One of them, an elder, was constantly burning dry grass with the flame of an oil lamp and scattering the ashes onto the sacrificial circle.

"Hanu God, appear, appear, appear!"

As they shouted and chanted incantations, the originally motionless sacrificial array gradually began to distort, and the flame in the oil lamp suddenly surged three meters high, burning away all of the old man's hair and beard.

He screamed and pounded his own flames, even rolling on the ground as he was scorched by the fire. The flames then spread to the surface of the sacrificial array's pattern, quickly filling the entire pattern.

"call----"

A tentacle stretched out from the center of the sacrificial array. As time went by, more and more tentacles appeared like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. People were overjoyed to see them and knelt down without regard for their burning companions, their eyes filled with tears of excitement.
