Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Judging from the decoration, it is self-evident that this elderly man should be the current Pope of the Church of the God of War, the first person after the God of War in the Church of the God of War, Gallup III.

"His strength at this moment surpassed his own. Zhou Ning could sense that his divinity had become so intense that it had almost condensed into substance, emitting intense light and shadow. A faint golden light flowed in his dark eyes.

This is a completely different situation from ordinary angels, proving that the other party is most likely an angel king.

Gallup III is also the longest-serving Pope in the Orthodox Church, having reigned for almost 900 years. Zhou Ning had seen his portrait before, but he did not expect that he would meet him in person on this relatively ordinary occasion.

As soon as Zhou Ning walked in, Gallup III opened his eyes, looked at Zhou Ning, pointed to the seat on the right, and said in a low and solemn voice:

"Powerful angel, this must be our first meeting. I have been following you for a long time, and you are stronger than I thought."

"Sit down first."

At the same time, Gallup III made Patriarch Roger and Todd Ruth look at each other in surprise. Smith Hall also felt that he could not believe his ears. The former had thought about confronting the opponent head-on and was well aware of the opponent's strength, but when he heard what Gallup III said, he still couldn't help but be surprised.

After not seeing each other for a few days, has the other person been promoted to an angel walking on earth?

Isn't this too fast? Patriarch Roger was secretly surprised and couldn't believe it.

He remembered that when he first met the other party, he was not even as strong as he is now. Now, less than two months have passed since then.

Now I am still some distance away from becoming an angel, but the other party has already become an angel...

As soon as Gallup III finished speaking, Zhou Ning felt as if it was a compulsory order, which made him want to obey his words and sit on the chair next to him.

However, Zhou Ning quickly recovered and controlled himself. He took off his hat and put it against his chest in a friendly manner, saying calmly:

"Good evening, Your Holiness. It is an honor to meet you."

Then he walked slowly to the chair and sat down.

After a brief silence, Gallup III nodded and said:

"I heard what happened this time from Roger. Thanks to your help, the Church of the God of War was able to successfully recover the Falik Code. Roger is enough to represent the Church of the God of War, but I would like to meet you in person."

"I know all the angels who walked the earth before you. They competed and fought with each other, but when given the opportunity, they also cooperated and shared what they had. Do you have a name of your own?"

Zhou Ning was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the other party to suddenly bring up this. He immediately shook his head and said:

"not yet."

"After becoming an angel, you can give yourself a one- or two-part honorific name. Only gods can use three-part honorific names. Each part represents a person's identity, authority, or characteristics. Once someone holds a corresponding ceremony, they can sense your honorific name when it is called, and then they can communicate without the relatively cumbersome letters or messengers." Gallup III spoke in a low and solemn voice, as if teaching his own students.

"For example, my honorific title is the Absolute Supreme of the Church of the God of War; the Angel with the Authority of Justice. You only need to prepare three candles, a bottle of incense containing a celestial spirit mixture, a moonstone, and mithril to perform the ceremony and communicate with me."

"I understand." Zhou Ning repeated the honorific name and thanked him. Recalling the scene where Meredith communicated with the God of War, he nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that there were still many things he needed to understand after becoming an angel. This honorific name was the first thing he needed to resolve.

Gallup III nodded, no longer dwelling on the topic, and said:

"My main reason for coming here this time is to get to know you. If possible, I want to represent the Church of the God of War and form a relatively formal alliance with Xingkong. After all, we already have a good foundation for cooperation, and Xingkong's strength has also been recognized by our Lord."

Gallup III asked directly to the point.

Forming a formal alliance? At the church level, an alliance meant that if one party encountered a crisis or needed assistance, the other party had an obligation to assist. Zhou Ning couldn't help but ponder for a moment. It seemed that during the previous battle against Archbishop Edward, the might of God-King Odin had been noticed by the God of War who had descended from the heavens. Strictly speaking, this was actually a bit of a misunderstanding.

However, compared to the powerful Church of the God of War, the Starry Sky Church has not even been established yet. No matter how you look at it, it is more likely that they will need their help. It is naturally beneficial to form an alliance with them.

Zhou Ning then smiled and said:

"It seems we have no reason to refuse. I agree on behalf of Xingkong."

Gallup III also smiled faintly, stared at Zhou Ning for a while and said:

"In that case, the purpose of my trip has been achieved. Roger will discuss the next matters with you. By the way, after achieving angel status, did you sense the whispers from the south?"

"To the south... the island deep in the foggy sea?" Zhou Ning asked as if seeking confirmation.

Gallup III nodded slightly and said:

"Yes, this is a hidden danger that almost all angels will encounter. As a future ally, let me remind you that angels are not as high and mighty as most people imagine."

"After reaching the Angel level, do not act rashly, especially against those who are much weaker than you. Otherwise, hidden dangers may accumulate. If you take further steps, your tendency towards madness and loss of control will become more serious, causing the Transcendent to stop here and never be able to advance again."

Huh... Zhou Ning exhaled silently and nodded.

"I see. Thank you for your reminder."

Gallup III nodded at him, and his figure slowly disappeared from everyone's sight as if erased by an eraser.

Patriarch Roger continued to bow until Gallup III completely disappeared. He then breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhou Ning.

"Your Majesty Wayne, let's talk about compensation."

Zhou Ning curled the corners of his mouth, nodded, and made a gesture of listening attentively.

Patriarch Roger said solemnly:

"According to our previous agreement, the reward for this operation is 4 Victar cash and two exclusive decrees. Half of the reward remains unpaid. However, since Your Majesty's contribution this time has exceeded our expectations, we will pay an additional 2 Victar."

"Add to that the Shaman King's 19 Victa bounty, and the 3 Victa bounties from the scattered pirates, and we'll collect them for you, for a total of 30 Victa. Is that a problem?"

30 Vectra... Don't get carried away with joy, be mindful of your demeanor! Zhou Ning suppressed his intense joy and said calmly and reservedly:

"no problem."

Patriarch Roger looked at him suspiciously and handed him a bank draft.

"This promissory note contains exactly 30 Victars, backed by both gold and credit. You can withdraw it from any Falik Bank and cash it at any time."

"As for the exclusive law, have you thought about it?"

Zhou Ning had already thought about this, nodded, and said solemnly:

"I want 'No roaming or teleporting without my permission.'"
