The old man in brown robe took a deep breath, his face became calm, and he slowly said, "The temple has never been afraid of war, but it just doesn't want to sacrifice too many innocent lives. It's getting late. If you still want to see the god, come with me. If you don't want to, feel free to do so."

After saying that, he turned around and flew towards the metal wall.

Wang Wen squinted his eyes and looked at it, then lifted himself up to follow without changing his expression.

Zhu and Ren, who were being worshiped by hundreds of people behind them, were slightly startled. They raised their legs and strode after them, but were stopped by Wang Wen.

Glancing at the back of the old man in brown robe, he said to Zhu and Ren: "After killing so many of them, you are still willing to take me to see God. It's hard to say this trip. For safety reasons, you two stay outside and wait. I will come back as soon as I go."

Zhu Xingguo just shouted "Master".

Little Sun in the hand of Wang Wen stopped him from saying any more words.

After Little Sun dispersed, Wang Wen smiled and said, "I can even withstand nuclear bombs. Self-protection is not a problem. Protecting your own safety is the best support for me!"

Ren Ruanruan pulled Zhu Xingguo back who was a little disappointed, nodded and said to Wang Wen, "Captain, don't worry, we will definitely take care of ourselves."

Wang Wen then left with peace of mind and followed the old man into the metal wall.

Zhu Xingguo asked Ren Ruanruan: "Do you think Master thinks I am holding you back?"

Ren Ruanruan looked him up and down, imitating Wang Wen and comforted him, "Don't think too much, the captain may just think it's in the way."

Zhu Xingguo looked back at the crowd lying on the ground with a grimace, puzzled. "Why do you have supernatural powers but I don't? I obviously also helped provide supplies."

"Maybe..." Ren Ruanruan thought, "Your skin is not as white as mine?"

While the two were talking.

A seemingly absent Human Face appeared in the clouds at the top of the metal wall in the distance, drifting quietly with the wind to where the two people and the crowd gathered.

Ren Ruanruan rubbed his arms and asked Zhu Xingguo strangely, "Have you ever felt that you suddenly became cold?"

"Don't you think so?" Zhu Xingguo wondered, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat hot pot?"

Ren Ruanruan rolled his eyes at him. "Big stupid cow!"

She casually waved a light ball as big as a watermelon, holding it to keep warm while brightening the originally dark environment around her.

The crowd who saw this scene quickly kowtowed again.

Shouting some incomprehensible words like "miracle of light".

Zhu Xingguo was very angry. He walked up to the crowd and said, "Why do you only recognize her?"

"God of Light, what are your orders?" The brave man who escaped from death became even more pious when he learned that he had been saved by God.

"I am a divine messenger??" Zhu Xingguo pointed at himself in surprise. He looked back and saw Ren Ruanruan covering his mouth in joy behind him, feeling a little helpless.

He rolled his eyes, thought about it, and asked the crowd, "You have been worshiping for so long, are you hungry? Give me some of my power and I will make it delicious for you!"

"Does the envoy mean for us to prepare sacrifices?" The brave man didn't know what atmosphere he was in. A hint of embarrassment flashed across his face, then he turned to the old man next to him and said, "Is there any decent food at home?"

The old man looked at the brave man with affection and said with a smile, "My child, let alone decent ones, even if they are not decent ones, they are not."

The brave man nodded silently, took out a worn-out bullet casing from his pocket, handed it to the old man and said, "You are not in good health, go back and rest first, and ask Maggie to buy some bread and send it over. I want to sacrifice to the God of Light."

The old man took the bullet shell and nodded lovingly. "You should also pay attention to your health. Don't be too tired just after you wake up."

After saying that, the old man bowed devoutly to Ren Ruanruan and was about to get up and leave.

People nearby heard the conversation between an old man and a young man, and there was a constant buzz of discussion.

Soon someone crawled over and said, "I also have a few pieces of brown bread in my family that I have been reluctant to eat, so I can donate them!"

"Are you guys going too far?" Another person glanced at Ren Ruanruan secretly and scolded in a low voice, "Are you just going to use bread to sacrifice to the God of Light? Those people in the temple always use wine and meat for sacrifice, and no matter how bad it is, there are fruits. How can you use bread to sacrifice?!"

"Then what do you think we should do?" The person who wanted to contribute black bread asked him, "Can we be the same as the temple? Black bread is already my best food!"

The man was stunned and didn't know what to say.

The brave man who had not interrupted could not help but sigh, "Our god is thousands of times better than the temple, but we can't bring out decent sacrifices. It's really sad."

Everyone who heard this burst into tears.

The man who scolded gritted his teeth and, regardless of offending God, stood up and shouted to everyone, "We need decent sacrifices! Let's all chip in. I will personally contribute fifty bullet casings! At least buy fresh fruits and meat!"

"Wow.."

The crowd was excited for once.

Each one shouted more excitedly than the other about how much they wanted to share.

Some people even looked crazy and shouted words that directly contributed to a pig.

The brave man at the front of the crowd smiled happily.

Turn around.

I dare not talk to Ren Ruanruan directly.

He could only say to the dumb "God Envoy" Zhu Xingguo: "Master God Envoy, although the believers of the Goddess of Light are not rich, they are united and qualified sacrifices will arrive soon. Please rest assured!"

Zhu Xingguo people are stupid.

Not to mention the Ren Ruanruan behind it.

Girls naturally hate to see such scenes, so they deliberately opened their mouths to stop everyone.

But I heard Zhu Xingguo yelling in an embarrassed voice, "You guys can calm down for a while!"

He also imitated the pretentious posture of Ren Ruanruan and Wang Wen.

He raised his right hand and waved towards the open space beside the crowd.

Under everyone's gaze.

A shiny golden bread as big as a house appeared out of thin air in front of you!

"Come! I will reward you!" Zhu Xingguo shouted to the sluggish crowd with high spirits, "Eat as much as you like! Each bite can be changed according to the taste you have imagined in your mind!"

No one dared to move.

Such a big piece of bread is so scary.

Never seen it in my life.

I was afraid that the bread would be eaten back when I got close.

The only bold ones here are really bold.

Although he was scared, he still obeyed the words of the "God Envoy" and slowly approached, and under the guidance of the "God Envoy"'s gaze, he gently grabbed a small shiny lump from the wall of the bakery.

His Adam's apple moved.

Swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The buns don't have much aroma, just the ordinary sweet aroma of fermented and baked pasta.

But for Poor Ghost who can't even afford black bread.

This golden bread is fluffy, soft and sweet at first sight, and the taste is definitely amazing.

What's more, according to the "God Envoy", every bite will change according to the taste of your own imagination.

Those who are brave carefully put the pieces of bread into their mouths and chew them.

I thought: Imaginary taste? Can it taste like meat?

The thought just flashed through me.

The bread in your mouth disappeared and was replaced by a large piece of pork belly that was fat yet lean and soft and fragrant!

The bold ones will be shocked!

With a "poof" sound, he spit out the food in his mouth and looked at it in his hands.

That's right!

It's bread! Or a ball of bread mixed with saliva that's about to turn into a paste!

He doubtfully stuffed the bread ball in his hand back into his mouth and chewed it. Zhu Xingguo felt so sick that he almost pulled out a gun and gave it to him.

The brave ones don't know that they have escaped death again.

The feeling of pleasure of eating meat once again appeared on his face.

He closed his eyes.

His mouth kept stirring, but he couldn't help but draw two crystal lines in the corners of his eyes.

He had only tasted the taste of this piece of meat once in his life. It was a delicacy made by his mother when she was still alive. The whole family only had two pieces in total, and he only enjoyed one of them.

That feeling will never be forgotten in my life.

The old man who had been following him saw his appearance.

Curiously, he stepped forward and pulled off a piece of bread and put it in his mouth to eat.

His mouth moved a few times.

He immediately got down on the ground and kowtowed to Ren Ruanruan.

Then he tore off a large piece of bread from the bakery and turned around to share it with the people nearby who were still in a daze.

The crowd saw the two people in this posture.

I was also very curious in my heart.

No matter how poor they are, they still have bread.

Even if you are an angel, can you conjure bread that is more delicious than meat?

People tasted [Gourmet Bread] with curiosity.

Then it fell down in pieces.

While shedding tears, chewing bread, they kept kowtowing to Ren Ruanruan. From time to time, someone swallowed the bread and shouted "Miracle of Light".

Zhu Xingguo:"..."

It was obvious that the bread was changed by oneself, but these guys still thanked Xiao Ren.

He was furious.

I decided not to give them water and choked these heartless white-eyed wolves to death.

Ren Ruanruan in the back was laughing so hard that he almost shuddered.

No one noticed that the looming Human Face in the sky had floated into the clouds above their heads.

Inside the metal wall.

Wang Wen follows the old man in brown robe and enters through the door.

What appears in front of you is a long corridor.

Oil lamps were lit on the walls on both sides in a retro style.
