Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Zhou Ning was inspired, raised his head, looked into the distance, and said to himself:

"It's a bit awesome!"

It was obvious that this was the power of the Ascetic Church. Only the Ascetic Church could utilize the environment here and display such a divine power.

Zhou Ning breathed a sigh of relief and chose to stop, watching the pollution on Cumberland's body being slowly removed. At the same time, he broke away from the angel form, revealing a bloody human body.

The opponent was already seriously injured, but he was still muttering something.

"The goddess who spins the threads of fate;

“The embodiment of all life;

"The great being who knows and can do everything!"

"The faithful beg for your help!"

Prayer after prayer lingered in Zhou Ning's ears. Zhou Ning shook his head. The reason why he chose to take action here was because this was the territory of the Ascetic Church and the place where the Sun Goddess paid attention.

From a mystical perspective, this was understandable. Under normal circumstances, Cumberland's so-called gods couldn't save him. In the divinely charged St. Raymond Cathedral, the home turf of the Sun Goddess, even the most powerful gods couldn't gain an advantage.

Of course, when Zhou Ning thought about the Sun Goddess's name listed alongside the Elf Goddess and Mercedes on the inscription, he inevitably developed a slight suspicion of her. However, as a former Sun Guardian, he still had a filter for her and never thought of any negative associations.

If I hadn't left Dockland, I might have become a member of the Ascetic Church...

Zhou Ning smiled, pondered for a moment, and then said to himself devoutly:

"My wish is to obtain the precious and extraordinary items from Cumberland."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, fulfilling his wish.

After a crisp sound, the staff in Cumberland's hand and the ring on his finger broke away from the opponent's control one by one and flew into Zhou Ning's hands. Seeing this, the opponent's pupils trembled and his eyes were about to burst.

Both of these things should be good things, especially the staff. According to my own judgment, it may be the quasi-miracle item held by the other party.

Similarly, now is not the time to check the quality of the items. Zhou Ning calmly put away the two extraordinary items, and then leisurely looked at Stuart Crow who appeared not far away.

It was the Patriarch of the Ascetic Church who just released that powerful force.

Stuart Crow seemed not to have seen what had just happened. He still held the magnificent Saint Zachary's Scepter in his hand and walked towards this side with a calm face. He first glanced at Cumberland on the ground, and then asked Zhou Ning:

"Is he Archbishop Cumberland of the Church of the Goddess of Life? What happened?"

"Yes, He also has another identity. He is called Ian, the All-Knowing One, and is a famous organizer of extraordinary gatherings."

Zhou Ning did not hide anything and recounted to Stuart Crow everything he knew, including the venue of the extraordinary gathering, the content of the second round of auctions, etc.

At this moment, Cumberland seemed to have received some kind of revelation. He suddenly stopped chanting, looked at Zhou Ning, and said with an increasingly solemn smile:

"Let me think about who you are, Batman? Or the Mole? Haha, it's useless. In short, you won't get any information from me. I am different from you. I have an unshakable faith in God. Even if I die, it will only be temporary. God will resurrect me and give you severe punishment."

... Zhou Ning frowned when he heard this. The other party had been contaminated to a certain extent by the influence of the miracle on you. His rationality continued to decline, and his mental state became abnormal. In the end, he even went crazy and out of control. Zhou Ning couldn't tell whether he was awake or talking nonsense.

This is the power of miracles upon you, far more effective than he imagined, its actual strength not much less than that of the World Beyond Heaven. It can even affect an angel to this degree.

Stuart Crow shook his head and waved his scepter. In an instant, shackles made of holy light appeared on Cumberland's body, binding him. Then, several Templars pulled Cumberland up and took him forward.

One of the Templars was an old acquaintance of Zhou Ning, the deer-headed man who bought his devil fruit.

It had been almost a year since we last met, yet Wayne Stewell could actually be on equal footing with the Patriarch... The only person who could command such respect from an angel was another angel... When he passed by Zhou Ning, he couldn't help but hold his breath, lowered his head silently, and didn't dare to look directly at him.

"Is there anything else you need to know from me?" Zhou Ning glanced at the deer-headed man and turned to ask Stuart Crow.

Stuart Crow thought for a moment and asked a few more questions. Zhou Ning answered them one by one, selecting what he could say.

After a while, he nodded thoughtfully, smiled and said:

"I have no problem. The Ascetic Church thanks you for your help. We will temporarily handle Cumberland. Don't doubt the Ascetic Church's interrogation capabilities."

"As for the intelligence gained from the interrogation, I promise to share it with the Starry Sky Church."

Zhou Ning nodded and agreed to Stuart Crow's request. The torture of the Ascetic Church has always been famous. If the other party cannot get anything out of the interrogation, he also has a way to make the other party confess.

"Oh right..." Zhou Ning suddenly remembered that he had asked Grantham to inform the Ascetic Church, and asked casually:

"Did the royal family of the Kingdom of Braxton find anything?"

"Not yet." Stuart Crow shook his head slowly and said calmly, "I've asked Chin West to investigate. I'll share the news with you as soon as I have it."

"If it's Qien West, there shouldn't be any problem..." Zhou Ning thought about it and said:

"What does the goddess think about this matter?"

In his opinion, this matter is closely related to the Ascetic Church. As a relatively active existence among the righteous gods, the Sun Goddess should respond to this.

Stuart Crow was first surprised by Zhou Ning's question, then he said calmly:

"This time the goddess didn't respond. She just told us not to become your enemy and to try to cooperate with your actions."

This... Zhou Ning didn't expect to get such an answer. Thinking of the deep and lofty gaze he noticed when he came to the Ascetic Church last time, it seemed that the Sun Goddess was indeed paying attention to him.

It would be fine if the goddess was really on our side, but if she was from the opposite camp as our worst guess would suggest... then the pressure would be enormous.

At this moment, Zhou Ning's inspiration was touched, and he suddenly frowned and looked forward.

Cumberland, who was being escorted to the gate of St. Raymond's Cathedral in the distance, suddenly broke free from the Templars' restraints. His entire body burned with green flames from the inside out, completely engulfing him in an instant, turning him into a man of fire. He smiled happily, feeling no pain at all:

"Look, the fire is so beautiful. Thank God for helping me. I repeat, even if I die, it will only be temporary. God will soon revive me and give you the most severe punishment."

Zhou Ning hurriedly teleported over, but it was too late. He narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the instantly charred remains of Cumberland, staring at it for a long, long time. Angels and gods often remain alive even after death, and he always felt that the death of an angel would not be so simple and sudden.
