Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Chapter 1153: Speech on Harvesting Leeks

Seeing Zhou Ning agree so readily, Meredith smiled sincerely, and her toes, which had been restless, relaxed.

"On behalf of the Church of the God of War, I thank you for your kindness."

Zhou Ning smiled and nodded, took off his hat, bowed, slowly walked out of the hotel room, and chose to teleport back to the Starry Sky Base in the alley outside the hotel.

In fact, he did have doubts about the sudden request of the Church of the God of War, but the teachings of the Church of the God of War and the God of War himself had always given him the impression of being lawful, good, and a bit upright. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were the best allies he had ever worked with.

Therefore, he could not resist their request to remain neutral, nor did he want to refuse. Moreover, the other party had not shown any ill intentions so far.

……

The headquarters of the Starry Sky Church.

Because a new minor version was coming soon, smart players had already prepared their Vekta, supplies, and materials in advance. Players knew Wayne well; even if one had become a god, one's hobbies would not change in a short time. They lined up in long rows, whispering to each other curiously.

"Will Boss Wayne really come today?"

"He should, the minor version has been updated. He's the protagonist and the quest guide, so how could he not come?"

"Don't guess. Didn't you see Richie Burke is waiting here?"

Richie Burke's face flushed red as he waited at the front of the line with excitement and nervousness. Not long ago, he had received the oracle from Wayne Sternwell that He would come to the Starry Sky Station this morning.

This excited him deeply. The unspoken rule of this world had always been that, except for a few special circumstances, gods could not walk among the mortals. Rich Burke had originally thought that Wayne Stewell would be the same. Now it seemed that the other party was an unexpected factor.

With three righteous gods and a deity that could walk the earth, who in the righteous church could compare to the Starry Sky Church? As an elder and chief steward of the church, even a year ago, he had never imagined that he would have such a glorious day.

"Praise the great god of desire and knowledge!" Richie Burke was full of confidence and prayed silently in a low voice.

At this moment, a beam of light descended from the sky, and a crimson glow quickly dyed the surrounding clouds red. Wind pressure suddenly came, and illusory books appeared out of thin air. The large amount of mysterious knowledge in the books resonated with each other, reflecting a chair made of golden knowledge symbols.

The next second, Zhou Ning appeared on the chair, already wearing multiple crowns, a black robe, and a purple-black cloak. Bruce Wayne and Kelly stood there on either side.

The level of coolness is instantly raised!

This was the image Zhou Ning had used to project the Genesis image of Guarani, the god of knowledge and wisdom, to achieve true deity. He had merely replaced Guarani, and he wasn't concerned about his opponent's reaction. After all, they were already at odds, so he had to suppress his dissatisfaction.

"Holy crap, wife, come with me to see God!"

"Fuck, so handsome that I'm about to vomit blood!"

"Is this God? So cool! I want to be like him one day!"

"It's really awesome!"

This scene not only shocked Richie Burke, but also fertilized the players, making them feel very emotional.

Lifting his head slightly, looking at Kelly and Bruce Wayne beside Zhou Ning, Richie Burke felt a pang of jealousy. It's okay for Her Majesty Jasmine, but why do these two seem more important than me? I was here first!

He pushed his way through the crowd. Although he was now the chief steward of the Starry Sky Church, in front of Zhou Ning, he subconsciously returned to his younger brother's attitude and spoke carefully:

"Mr. Sternwell...is there anything you can do for your humble followers?"

"Not for now. You've done a great job here. This place will be managed by Kelly and Bruce Wayne from now on. You can return to Nathaniel." Zhou Ning said calmly.

"This..." A man doesn't cry easily. Richie Burke was really wronged this time. But then he heard Zhou Ning continue:

"You are very important to the Starry Sky Church. This time when you return, you can control a miracle item. Improve yourself as quickly as possible."

"Yes! Your Excellency!" Richie Burke burst into laughter, his chest puffed out with energy. His expression was incredibly quick.

Seeing this scene, hundreds of thousands of players raised their heads with excitement on their faces, and many of them were recording the entire process.

This is Wayne Stewell who has become a god. Judging from his appearance, his status is far superior to the past. When he was still an angel, Wayne Stewell could already defeat the gods. He must be even stronger after becoming a god. So the question is, how strong is he?

You'll have to fight the God of Knowledge and Wisdom to find out. I hope that in the upcoming main storyline, "Guapaopao" won't run away anymore and fight a real battle! Also, don't hold back. I know what you want to do. We've got our wallets ready. Come on, don't show any mercy on us!

Zhou Ning stood up from the Seat of Knowledge, brushed the cloak behind him, glanced around, temporarily ignoring their eager eyes, and said in a serious tone:

"I guess many of you have doubts in your minds. Yes, I have become a god."

wow——

With just this one sentence, the surrounding players cheered in unison. Even the surrounding residents were infected by the atmosphere. Although they had already received a system prompt and knew the news a long time ago, Zhou Ning, as the protagonist of the game who had always accompanied the players in their growth, had an extraordinary status in the hearts of the players. Now that they had received Zhou Ning's personal confirmation, the joy and pride in their hearts were naturally self-evident.

Zhou Ning raised his right hand and pressed it down, signaling them to be quiet. Soon the whole audience fell silent and listened to Zhou Ning's speech.

"Just three years ago, I was just an ordinary person, yet I was already battling evil. I've experienced setbacks along the way, but I've never given up. Along the way, I've faced countless crises, battled the heavens, battled humans, and battled the gods... Now, I've become a god myself."

"The journey to godhood is incredibly perilous. Even I've overcome countless dangers, some of which are beyond the pale of understanding. In this world dominated by the transcendent, gods always reign supreme. But you are the exception. I've accompanied you throughout your growth, but you've also been with me, witnessing my journey from ordinary human to god."

"In front of you, I am still myself, a human, not a god. The original intention of gaining power is always to deal with disasters and fight for this world."

Without the Lasso of Truth, Zhou Ning, who possessed the Master of Speech and Bluff expertise, went all out. With just a few words of his speech, he resonated with the players and made them excited.

Especially the players who had just finished watching the TV series and saw the process of Zhou Ning becoming a god confirmed Zhou Ning's words and understood each other tacitly.

After taking a look at the players' expressions, Zhou Ning smiled slightly. Just like playing a song of love before fundraising, his speech was also to make the players identify more with him as the protagonist of the game, and to be more invested in the upcoming main storyline, which would also be more implicitly helpful for his next action of harvesting leeks.
