An old man in a priest's robe appeared in front of Gu Nan and the others. Strangely enough, his appearance was exactly the same as that of Old Hank.

But though they were both old men, Old Hank looked like a merchant who’d been exposed to wind and rain and was often on the road, but this person had a completely different air and looked full of energy.

Even though they had the same appearance, anyone who saw the two would definitely not mistake them for each other.

"A-Are you twins?" Ye Wu stared at the two curiously, glancing at Old Hank and then at the old priest.

Old Hank looked helpless. "Yes, this is my older brother. You can call him Hank."

"You’re both called Hank?" Ye Wu obviously didn't know much about the culture of the World of Gods, so she didn't understand why there would be two Hanks in one family.

"I'm Old Hank," Old Hank emphasized.

Priest Hank wasn’t affected by the chat between the two and kept his eyes on Gu Nan. "Young man, you haven't answered my question yet."

But Gu Nan wasn’t in a hurry to answer. He just looked at the priest. "Are you Jones’s apostle?"

Jones was this generation’s God of Knowledge. Anyone who could wear priest attire in the Scholar Temple was probably his apostle.

"You…" Anger flashed across the old priest’s face when he saw the other party directly calling his god’s name, but then he seemed to have realized something and asked in a heavy voice, "Who is Your Excellency?"

Gu Nan withdrew his gaze and continued to browse through the files. He wasn’t interested in chatting with a mere apostle.

A God of Twilight appeared out of thin air in the epic, and even an apostle paid special attention to this god. This meant that Jones had long known something was off.

But was the God of Twilight the only extra god here?

Gu Nan looked through the ancient records one by one. Not only the First Divine War, but the entire history of the World of Gods was within the scope of his research.

However, he found no other differences as obvious as the God of Twilight.

After all, Gu Nan was just a gamer in his past life and didn't do systematic research, so it was impossible to memorize the entire history of the World of Gods.

For example, did four or five gods die in a certain battle in the Second Divine War—who the hell could remember this? By the time players first entered the game, the Fourth Divine War had already ended.

‘I’ll have to start with this God of Twilight.’ Gu Nan immediately decided when he couldn't find any other clues.

Since such a god appeared out of thin air, he would always be able to find some clues by following this god’s journey and tracing the descendants he left behind.

Gu Nan began to carefully search for specific information about the God of Twilight. The amount of information he needed to find this time was greater, but he was more efficient now.

Because he discovered that this God of Twilight had a historical biography.

After entering the modern era, the World of Gods also had history books and the like. In particular, the rise of mage organizations among the mortals contributed significantly to this development, as mages held great interest in researching the stories of gods.

Most mages were unbelievers, and some of the especially zealous mages would even shout slogans such as "Gods are just more powerful mages".

Among them, theological scholars would research the entire history of both well-known and obscure gods and compile their life stories into biographies for future generations to analyze.

However, while Gu Nan was busy investigating the God of Twilight, Priest Hank’s situation turned a little awkward, because he was completely ignored by Gu Nan.

"Your Excellency…" Priest Hank suppressed his anger and looked directly at Gu Nan.

However, before he could speak further, a shadow hand stretched out from behind the temple and directly dragged the priest into the shadows.

In order to prevent Jones from noticing, Gu Nan didn’t kill the other party directly this time, but instead… dragged him into the shadows first, then killed him.

In this way, in the God of Knowledge’s senses, this apostle just disappeared mysteriously. Who knows when they might get around to investigating this?

"Daoist Priest!" Old Hank suddenly gave a furious roar, his eyes widening. No matter what, Priest Hank was still his big brother...

"Oh, there's one more." Gu Nan looked up from the files at Old Hank, and then the shadow hand reappeared.

After Old Hank was also dragged into the shadows, the Scholar Temple’s library became quiet, with only Ye Wu following Gu Nan with a pale face.

Even though she’d heard of Lord Gu Nan's cruel and ruthless reputation before leaving, she didn’t think that—given his current realm—he would still attack these ordinary people.

‘It’s truly unimaginable… Is this also what Master wants me to learn?’

Ye Wu, who was wholeheartedly devoted to learning, thought as such.

After all, these days, Ye Wu finally realized that Gu Nan wasn’t joking back then. He really did play every day and never cultivated.

This was truly inconceivable. Even Unified Dao bigshots like Yu Lian and Song Fei needed to constantly review and consolidate their own foundations, or else they might fall behind.

Because one’s understanding of laws could never reach 100%. It was merely a process of getting infinitely closer to the truth.

Of course, Gu Nan didn’t believe this. He only knows that fists are the truth.

"Let's go," After looking through the records for a while, Gu Nan raised his head and said to Ye Wu.

"Ah? Where are we going next?" Ye Wu finally came back from her deep thoughts and asked hurriedly.

"Crescent City."

……

Crescent City was located on the Eastern part of the Saint-Groux Continent. It was a well-known city.

Its fame came from the story of the city’s founding. Crescent City declared its independence from several large empires and was founded by a group of mages.

Therefore, Crescent City was also known as the Mage City, and the highest political organization here was the Mage Guild.

When Gu Nan and Ye Wu reached Crescent City, it was already three days after they left the Scholar Temple.

In fact, with Ye Wu's Void Cutter strength, if the two of them wanted to speed up, they wouldn't need to spend such a long time on the road. But Gu Nan seemed to have no intention of pursuing the fastest speed and instead strolled along like a tourist.

"Let's meet an old friend first,” Gu Nan told Ye Wu after arriving in Crescent City.

Ye Wu naturally had no objections, so the two of them walked into a tavern. Before anyone could come up to greet them, someone in a corner waved at them.

"Your current fashion sense finally seems to have caught up with the times!" Gu Nan walked to the corner and couldn't help commenting while looking at the other party's attire.

The only person who could still meet Gu Nan in the World of Gods without trying to kill him was naturally Daoist Lingyang. As long as the gods saw Gu Nan, they would definitely all attack him at once… No, they would probably call for help now.

Compared with his uncouth clothes at the beginning, Daoist Lingyang had truly assimilated into the local culture by now, and his appearance revealed practically no traces of being from the Myriad Heavens.

Daoist Lingyang just smiled in response and quickly turned his attention to the other person. "Ye Wu?"f(r)eenovelkiss
