Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

As a legendary ancient evil god, Nyastra has always been synonymous with distortion, evil, brutality, and chaos. Perhaps only this kind of absurd dream with a high degree of freedom can have such a vague setting, allowing Nyastra to show his human side.

Or maybe it was that the Pirate King Zhou Ning had his own unique charm that was enough to make Nyastra obey.

Who can tell?

In the next second, the pitch-black sky, dancing electric snakes, the black sun, the dappled, unreal colors of an oil painting, and the twisted red dragon in the sky all vanished into thin air as the dream shattered. The sky had completely plunged into darkness. A heavy rain began to fall, and the sounds of explosions and cries continued to echo around them. Was this the real Daklan? Or was it still a dream? No one present could be sure. In Daklan today, reality and illusion were intertwined, completely indistinguishable.

Zhou Ning raised his eyes to glance at the sky. Just now, the Sword of Promised Victory was able to exert a power that was almost enough to shatter stars. This was not only because it received twelve votes to unblock it, but also because the bonus from the Crown of Sunlight was very helpful.

But at this time, since day and night had already rotated, the Crown of Sunlight went directly into cooling mode, which undoubtedly made their side lose another bargaining chip.

With Zhou Ning's current wish-making ability, he is still unable to control the cooling time of a divine weapon.

At the same time, the task progress on his panel was quietly updated.

[Current Mission Objective 2: Cause the collapse of the four-layer dream realm and find Archbishop Edward in the fifth layer of the dream realm. (Current Progress: 4/0) (1/)]

[Current Mission Objective 0: Defeat Archbishop Edward and his followers (Current Progress: 1/).]

[Optional Mission 0: Defeat the Sea God and his followers. (Current progress: 1/)]

[Optional Mission 2: Destroy the four landmark buildings in the dream. (Current Progress: 4/)]

[Overall mission completion progress: 65.23%.]

Zhou Ning nodded secretly. Breaking the second dream just now increased his task progress by about 15%, so he was not far from completing the task.

He was not stingy and directly settled the faction mission of "Exploring in Dreams", sending a large amount of experience rewards to each player.

At this time, everyone was still in the city center square of Darkland, which was the Brunus Square where they had fought with the Pirate King Zhou Ning before, and they were looking around curiously.

The wild and absurd dream from before more or less reflected reality. A series of crisscrossing abysses appeared in the center of the square. Those were the sword marks left by Zhou Ning's previous battle with the Pirate King.

The vast majority of players were still immersed in the ritualistic scene that had just taken place, especially Grantham, who was still tirelessly explaining the situation in the chat bubble and even posted a thread on the forum:

"Perhaps you brothers don't understand yet, but the scene just now was actually a foreshadowing."

"In Apocalypse, there's a setting: the origin of the universe is absolute spirit, which possesses everything. On the material level, it externalizes nature, the self, and the spirit. Then, on a higher level, it returns to itself. On the temporal level, it externalizes the past self, the present self, and the future self. However, only a very small number of high-level beings, such as God, can accurately control the temporal level."

"This is obviously not a problem for an ancient king like Wayne Stewell. And what just happened was Wayne Stewell's true self swinging a sword at his former self. It was a farewell to the past, a witness to the future, and the return of the former self to his true self. It was also a moment of historical significance."

"If nothing unexpected happens, after this battle, Wayne Stewell's strength will surely see a leap forward. I'm posting this as proof, and you're welcome to slap me in the face."

Gransom's statement was well-founded and had attracted a lot more audiences than his previous sarcasm. At least Shuidi Chenxing, the top little fan, bought into it and had a proud smile on his face.

He had a great time in this battle. Not only did he become the father of Big Brother Sugar Mountain, but he also made great contributions. He was already looking forward to how the footage of him and Wayne Stewell fighting side by side would be edited into the TV series.

But then, he was strangled by Brother Tangshan and his crimes were counted:

"Gleipnir, right? You want to be my dad, right? You mocked my looks, right? You said I looked like super sweet candy and the ugliest thing, right?"

"No, that's all for a buff. Do you really think you're that handsome?"

Before Shuidi Chenxing could finish his rebuttal, Jinse added indignantly:

"You said I'm 1 meters tall, right?"

"I didn't say that, Gleipnir did. It's all true. Is there anything wrong with telling the truth? Shorty, honestly, are you really not 1 meters tall?"

Once again, her reverse scale was touched. Jinse was furious and jumped up, wanting to insert two fingers into Chenxing's nostrils under the water.

The players argued for a while, and according to the previous agreement, the dusty Shuidi Shenxing handed over Gjallarhorn to XB. He would be the one to use Gjallarhorn next, and finally Haicheng.

"Wait, why is this equipment still cooling down?" XB asked confusedly while holding Galarhorn.

Seeing Shenxing shaking his head under the water, he wanted to go find the protagonist to ask, but at this time he saw Wayne Stewell take off the Crown of Sunlight on his head and return it to Stuart Crowe beside him.

"Thank you."

Stuart Crow took the Crown of Sunlight from Zhou Ning, carefully kept it, and then sighed silently.

If he couldn't see anything in the first battle, he personally experienced the power and shock of the other Wayne Stewell and Nyastola in the second battle. It was definitely a battle at the level of gods. He was 100% certain that the Sea God had definitely descended upon the other Wayne Stewell. Even as an angel, he was unable to intervene in the entire battle.

Especially the last attack that Wayne Stewell launched by unsealing the miracle item. Stuart Crow had no doubt that if the other party's target was the Apocalypse Continent, it would most likely be an attack that could shatter the entire continent.

Enough to pose a threat to the righteous gods!

If he had previously been skeptical of Wayne Stewell's record on Hood Island, believing his opponent's strength might have been due to divine intervention, he no longer believed that. It was clear that everyone had underestimated the power of Wayne Stewell and Xingkong.

Even if the opponent relies on a miracle item, being able to control a miracle item is itself a manifestation of strength. Moreover, the destructive power alone is far beyond the scope of the Angel King.

And... Stuart Crow turned his attention to this group of chosen ones.

After helping him kill his other self in the first dream, this group of chosen ones continued to play a pivotal role in the second dream, with the strongest even possessing a miraculous item! In ordinary Orthodox churches, that's the treatment of angels!

In addition, there is Jasmine. If I am not mistaken, she also became an angel again in the battle just now. She is a genius who became an angel at the age of 19 and is now a member of the Starry Sky Church.

And then there was the equally gifted Esdeath. Stuart Crow had seen her clearly just now; she'd been fighting from beginning to end, exerting her full strength against a foe far stronger than herself while also protecting herself admirably. And then there was the angel named Zhou Ning... whose true strength even he himself couldn't fathom.

Although the Third Religious War had not yet concluded, it was foreseeable that with the fall of Pope Dolent, the decline of the Ascetic Church was inevitable. The Church of the Starry Sky had already risen, and Wayne Stewell was very likely to become the first god of this era.

……

On the other side, Meredith appeared in a white priest robe, her face full of fatigue.

He came to Zhou Ning's side, looked around, and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, I have both bad news and good news. The bad news is that we are still in the dream, and the details of this dream are almost perfect. The good news is that we will soon receive reinforcements. The real Lord Gallup has also entered this dream and is currently near the old city."

"Compared to me, Your Excellency Gallup is undoubtedly the best vessel for the arrival of His Majesty the God of War."

"Oh?" Zhou Ning's spirits lifted slightly. This was good news.

This place is not too far from the old city, so the best choice is to meet up with Gallup III. With an Angel King who is good at assisting, we will be more confident in the next battle.
