Zhou Ning noticed that the other party's eyes lingered on him and Brian, who was wearing a mole mask. Zhou Ning remained calm. But Brian, about 45 degrees away from him, couldn't help but tremble all over. Polly, a little further away, was sweating profusely and almost collapsed to the ground.

Before taking his seat, Zhou Ning had made a slight adjustment. He accidentally bumped into Polly, who was supposed to be trading in the third round, and he didn't get his seat in time, relegating him to the back half of the table. This was his first attempt at changing the trading process. He wanted to see how many changes and differences he had to accumulate before the dream would collapse. If things went wrong, he could just flip the table. Ian didn't give him a strong impression.

As Zhou Ning's thoughts flashed, Yian smiled and spoke again:

"However, the transaction process has been adjusted compared to previous ones. Because one of us has an infiltrator who killed me, the great 'God of War' will judge and notarize on my behalf, ensuring that no one with ill intentions can escape detection. The great God of Wisdom and Knowledge will also help me determine the authenticity of the items to ensure everyone's interests are protected."

As Ian finished speaking, an old man with white hair and beard appeared, holding a simple staff. Zhou Ning noticed that the woman who traded him the "Scholar's Ring" took a silent breath and almost fell down.

Zhou Ning also happened to know this old man, Guarani, the god of wisdom and knowledge. He was once a righteous god who controlled the authority of knowledge and prophecy, but has now fallen.

Like the God of War Blomfield, Zhou Ning could not detect the identity of the person opposite him. It should also be an image formed in a dream.

Afterwards, some characters that existed only in myths and legends appeared around them, including Archibald, Louisa, Jasmine, and the arrow god Boudica whom he had met. Ian glanced around and said:

"This transaction will not be suspended, and the interests of any legitimate traders will not be harmed. However, those with ulterior motives will not be spared either. If there are no other issues, this gathering will begin at 12 o'clock and proceed clockwise."

Zhou Ning gathered his thoughts and took a deep breath. Frankly speaking, this situation wasn't without a solution. He could return to the Kingdom of God at any time with a single thought, but then Brian and Polly would likely remain here forever.

Zhou Ning's gaze rested on a peak demigod of the Earth Goddess Church who was in the fifth round of transactions. According to the "God of War"'s screening method, the other party was obviously a group of people with ulterior motives, and was also the target of this dream.

Even within the Orthodox Church, a peak demigod would be a high-ranking figure like Patriarch Roger, and would wield a powerful, unknown artifact. Zhou Ning planned to wait for him to make his move before making his move.

Zhou Ning was very curious about what the other party would do when faced with a fatal crisis.

The first trader was a relatively unfamiliar, gloomy man, one of the more than 30 living people. At this moment, with a pale face, he took out an unknown strange bracelet from his arms and placed it on the table with trembling hands.

The "God of War" raised his hand, and a brilliant golden light fell on the gloomy man's head. He was silent for two seconds and said:

"Guilty! His Dragon Eye Badge was stolen, and he participated in the robbery and murder of another participant after the transaction. My verdict is death by hanging."

A brilliant white light flashed in the hand of the God of Wisdom and Knowledge, and he said calmly:

"There's nothing wrong with the item."

Under Zhou Ning's gaze, a rope fell from the sky and hung around the gloomy man's neck. Zhou Ning noticed that the gloomy man's body was shaking more violently, and his crotch was slightly wet.

At this time, Ian shook his head and said:

"The looting between members of this trade is permitted. I will not pursue this matter."

The gloomy man breathed a sigh of relief visibly and almost cried. According to the original order, Zhou Ning would bid twice and the final transaction would be at 42900 Vectra.

But this time Zhou Ning deliberately remained silent and did not participate in the bidding. The gloomy man moved his throat, but finally did not dare to say a word.

The final price deviated slightly from the original price and was sold at 31900 Vt.

Zhou Ning's lips curled up into a smile. As he expected, this slight deviation wasn't enough to shake the dream. He also noticed that Yian's gaze towards him was becoming increasingly malicious and gloomy.

The transaction then proceeded as Zhou Ning had imagined. Since the silver-masked pirate demigod did not enter the dream for unknown reasons, the price of the Archer Bow did not change and was still sold at 72500 Victars.

The next transaction originally scheduled for the third and fourth rounds should have been the firearms that Polly took out, but after Zhou Ning changed the order, it jumped directly to the fifth round.

According to the original deal, the peak demigod of the Earth Goddess Church was supposed to hand over a ring that would enhance spiritual power but slightly slow its recovery. However, Zhou Ning noticed that the other party's movements in taking the traded item had become slower, clearly showing signs of wariness.

As a burst of holy light descended, the "God of War" raised his hand and began to notarize.

The next second he said in a loud voice:

"Guilty! He stole the Dragon Eye Badge, and he's from the Church of the Earth Goddess. He sneaked in here to stop the party from going on. My verdict is: death by hanging!"

Before he finished speaking, the peak demigod crushed a talisman he had prepared for a long time in his hand and chanted loudly:

"The goddess who is with the Apocalypse Continent;"

“The mother of all living things;

"A totem of the earth and farming."

This is the honorific name of the Earth Goddess. Zhou Ning realized that in a brief moment, the other party was connected with a high and mighty being.

At the same time, the starry night sky above their heads suddenly became bright, and the flat ground beneath their feet cracked into cracks one after another and began to shake violently.

Immediately afterwards, a vague but great figure emerged behind him.

The figure was not wearing shoes and her face was obscured by a layer of mist. Her age could not be discerned, but one could vaguely see that she was a beautiful woman.

Above her head hung an incomparably dazzling halo. As soon as its outline appeared, the entire dream shook violently, and illusory debris fell from many places.

This figure projected a powerful sacred aura, as if walking down from an infinite height, bringing waves of impact to this dream space.

With a loud clang, the entire dream space shattered into countless fragments. At the same time, the blurry figure vanished.

This was a divine descent from Priscilla, the Earth Goddess! Who would have thought that this peak demigod possessed such a hidden weapon?

Zhou Ning just breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, he found himself still on the shaking ghost ship, surrounded by the relatively calm sea northwest of Daklan and a dense crowd of people.

They were unable to escape this dream and return to reality; it had become a recurring cycle. Even Zhou Ning wasn't sure if he would return to the dream again after returning to the Kingdom of God.

The people around him were still the same people as before, but their faces were more or less stained with despair. Especially the peak demigod of the Earth Goddess Church, who had lost a trump card and didn't know what would happen next.

The sea is surrounded by fog, and it is difficult to see what is behind the fog. It is very likely that it is impossible to pass through.

At this moment, Zhou Ning quickly took out his pocket watch and took a look. Just like before, it was still 1 minute to a.m.
