Who hid my body?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 18 Which one is eighteen?

Bai Wei's words "your back door is too loose" directly made Ulu unable to deal with it.

As an old ASS, he naturally understood what Bai Wei meant, so he was not in the mood to think about what was wrong with his body. He just thought that he was seriously injured. After all, his entire shoulder was bitten through and was still bleeding.

So, after confirming that he did not leave any traces at the scene, Ulu hurried away.

Seeing that Wu Lu did not continue to ask questions, Bai Wei felt more relaxed and let him get away with it for the time being.

Sooner or later, Ulu will find that his health is getting worse and worse, and he will understand that this is because he is being "parasitized" by Bai Wei, but Bai Wei hopes that this day will come as late as possible.

Because now Ulu still has a way out. Although his situation seems very bad, if he really makes up his mind and doesn't care about his current identity and status, he can cut off Bai Wei, throw him into the church and run away. From now on, he will hide his identity and become a fugitive. Then he will still have a great chance of surviving.

Obviously Ulu could think of this path, but the price was too high. It would be like his first half of life had been in vain, and he would have to live in fear for the rest of his life. He was absolutely unwilling to do that.

But compared to this price, Uru would rather take his life. Once he knew that using Visas' power was a slow death, Bai Wei was sure that he would escape at all costs, and then he would be in trouble.

Therefore, Bai Wei still had to paralyze this guy as much as possible, let him immerse himself in the illusion of "I already have the most powerful power in the world" and die peacefully. By the time he realized something was wrong, he would have at least one foot in the grave and would have no other choice.

Tsk, that sounds a bit evil.

If it were an ordinary person, Bai Wei would have some psychological burden if he did this, but if the target was Ulu, then it didn't matter.

At this moment, Uru didn't know that Bai Wei had already planned several paths to death for him. He just dragged his wounded body back to the church, of course, he went back through the back door and was not discovered by anyone. Of course, it was also because Kelse didn't send anyone to guard here. The arrogant knight didn't think that Luji had the courage to come back here after escaping, so Bai Wei took advantage of him.

After returning to the room, Uru immediately put away the bloodstained clothes, and then cast several healing spells on himself.

Uru's level of healing magic cannot heal wounds directly. At most it can stop the bleeding and make the complexion look better.

But this was enough, just like Lugi's room next door, the knights could have found something wrong if they investigated carefully, but they didn't. The same was true for Uru, as long as he put on his clothes, people who didn't suspect him couldn't see anything wrong.

After doing all this, Ulu looked out the window, estimated in his mind how long it would take for dawn, and then he muttered "Not yet in time, not yet in time" and fell on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.

But what Ulu didn't know was that when he fell into a deep sleep, his entire left arm actually began to move slowly.

She was very considerate and propped up the bed, turned him over, and even covered him with a quilt.

Then, after making a satisfied "yeah" gesture, she and he became silent.

……

In the "House of Pleasure" bar, Kelsey looked at the bodies of Luggie and Roger with a very grim expression.

"Have you figured out who this guy is?" Kelsey asked the knight who was examining Roger's body.

The knight immediately picked up a flame badge from Roger's body and walked in front of Kelsey: "Report to the Knight Commander, this person should be a member of the Wildfire Sect."

"Wildfire Sect..." Kelsey narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered, "These guys are too fast. How long have we found that black marketeer? These guys have already found Luggie."

After examining Luigi's body, another knight said to Kelce, "Captain Knight, look at this..."

Kelsey turned around and found that the knight was showing Luggie's left hand to Kelsey.

The left hand was missing the middle finger.

"Tsk, are we still a step too late?" Kelsey frowned even more deeply. "It seems that the finger was indeed on his hand before, but..."

He turned his head and looked at Roger's body with a little confusion.

"If this guy came to steal the finger, then why did he die too? And the finger is gone... Is there a third person? Was he also taught by Wildfire?"

Kelsey couldn't understand why Luggie came here after getting the finger.

Why did he die with this Wildfire guy? Who killed whom? Was there a third person at the scene? Was it the third person who took the finger... But there should be no doubt about this.

"More and more people are getting involved." Kelsey whispered, "If we don't retract our fingers quickly and let the news spread, it will be even more troublesome."

Visas' body parts are definitely the most special things in this world.

Everyone wanted to obtain him, even the four orthodox religions and the four esoteric religions.

Now that Rhine, one of the four orthodox churches, and Wildfire, one of the four secret churches, have been killed, this is already troublesome. If the news continues to spread and is known by the other six churches, it will be even more troublesome. In fact, it is more difficult to be known by the orthodox churches than by the secret churches. After all, the secret churches are enemies and heretics. If they dare to compete with Rhine, Kelsey can just run over them.

But if the other three orthodox religions were to fail, then it would be impossible to snatch it by force. It would depend on whoever’s hands were faster and whoever took it in first would own the finger.

So, we can't wait any longer.

Kelsey was keenly aware that it would be difficult for his team to find the finger in a short period of time, so he turned to his knights and whispered, "Notify Bishop Corey immediately and ask him to send more people. Remember to indicate that we have obtained general intelligence and can at least confirm..."

He paused for a moment, then turned to look at Luggie's left hand before continuing.

"At least we can confirm that the body part is the middle finger of Visas' left hand. Bishop Corey, please let us know the rules for sealing the body part as soon as possible..."

Before he could finish his words, the knight who was checking Luigi's body suddenly spoke up: "Knight Commander, something seems to be wrong."

Kelsey was interrupted and looked at the knight angrily: "What's wrong?"

The knight took out Lukina's right hand which was originally pressed under his body.

"The thumb of Father Luigi's right hand is also missing."

Kelsey's eyes widened little by little.

Chapter 19 Is he really dead?

"May the wind of the Rhine surround you forever." Bishop Corey looked at the girl with her eyes closed in front of him with a smile, and then he slowly stretched out his hand and gently stroked the back of the girl's head, "May disease, plague, and nightmare never harm you."

Originally, the girl's expression was somewhat uneasy and painful, as if she was trapped in some terrible nightmare.

But under Bishop Corey's gentle caress, the girl's expression gradually calmed down.

This excited the noble lady who was waiting anxiously on the side: "Your Excellency the Bishop, Your Excellency the Bishop, my daughter..."

Bishop Corey made a silencing gesture with his other hand, and then said gently, "It's not urgent now, is it?"

The lady nodded repeatedly and immediately closed her mouth. Without her noticing, a black bug emerged from the back of the girl's head, crawled onto Bishop Corey's right hand, and then disappeared into the skin on the back of Bishop Corey's hand as if returning to its origin.

Immediately, the girl's expression completely calmed down. After Bishop Corey withdrew his hand, she slowly opened her eyes, as if she had woken up from a long-lasting nightmare, with a hint of confusion in her expression: "What am I..."

"Don't think too much." Bishop Corey said with a smile, "You just had a nightmare. Now the nightmare is over. You should embrace your new life and stop recalling the pain of the past."

The girl nodded slightly bewilderedly, and then the noble lady next to her immediately came forward and hugged her, saying with tears in her voice: "My dear, you are finally okay."

Seeing that it was over, Bishop Corey stood up and prepared to leave.

But before he took two steps, the noble lady rushed over again: "Your Excellency the Bishop, Your Excellency the Bishop."

Bishop Corey turned around and was hugged by the noble lady again: "I, I really don't know how to thank you!"

Facing the lady's sudden action, Bishop Corey was not flustered or lost his composure. He seemed to be used to it. He gently patted the lady's back and comforted her: "Okay, Madam, who said you didn't thank me? The gifts you offered are enough to show your piety to our Lord. In this case, how can I bear to watch the believers of my Lord being tortured by the pain of nightmares?"

"I, I know, but that's not enough. Those are really not enough to show my sincerity." The lady raised her head, and her tearful eyes gave people a different kind of temptation at this moment. "You don't know how much effort and time I spent, but I couldn't solve my daughter's strange disease. You know, after my husband passed away, the burden of the entire family fell on me alone. My daughter is my greatest hope. If it weren't for you, I really, I really... I really don't know how to thank you."

As she spoke, the lady's eyes flickered.

"Really, I would do anything for my daughter."

In response, Bishop Corey just smiled.

After spending some time to calm the mother and daughter, Bishop Corey watched the graceful lady leave with the other woman, with a smile on his face.

But when the backs of the mother and daughter disappeared from his sight, he immediately stopped smiling and became expressionless.

He took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped all parts that had just come into contact with the lady, even her clothes, as if he was afraid that the lady would leave even the slightest mark on him.

Not long after, a boy with a pretty face and fair skin came to Bishop Corey and said respectfully, "Bishop, the Knight Commander contacted you with the Holy Fire ten minutes ago."

Bishop Corey raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised, but he didn't say much, just nodded: "I understand."

The boy nodded and was about to leave when he was stopped by Bishop Corey.

Bishop Corey walked to the boy's side, slowly stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the boy's cheek, as if he was stroking some kind of work of art: "It's really... beautiful."

The boy didn't say anything, but just stood there quietly.

Bishop Corey caressed her for about a minute before withdrawing his hand: "Okay, you go down first."

The boy then left.

Then Bishop Corey returned to his room and went straight to his desk.

Next to the desk is a two-meter-high bronze statue of a human figure.

This bronze statue has white wings, a holy expression, and... no gender.

This is the bronze statue of the God of the Rhine.

The bronze statue of the God of the Rhine raises his hands forward, with a cluster of blue flames burning in the palms.

Bishop Corey stretched out his hand and put his fingers into the flame, and then the flame went out and turned into a small piece of paper.

He unfolded the note, and lines of strange characters appeared on it.

But these characters did not last long and soon disappeared like burnt ashes, but Bishop Corey still remembered the content and copied it down.

Then he sat back at his desk, picked up his notebook, and began to decrypt the characters.

As the decryption progressed, his brows furrowed little by little.

When the decryption was completed, he looked at the decrypted sentence with a complicated expression and murmured, "Two fingers? How is this possible?"

After a brief surprise, Bishop Corey carefully read the message sent back by Kelsey again, and then understood the situation.

Kelsey said that "there is a possibility that two fingers exist", but he was not sure. He just said that Luggie, whose fingers were taken away, is now missing two fingers, which happen to be the middle finger of his left hand and the thumb of his right hand.

In other words, it is possible that these are indeed two fingers, but it is also possible that they are smoke bombs dropped by the person who took the fingers.

The only information that can be confirmed is that at least one of them is real.

What the black market merchant sold was the real stuff, otherwise the Wildfire Cult would not have been involved.

But the one who took the finger was Luji?

Bishop Corey was a little surprised. He was somewhat familiar with Lu Ji. He knew that this guy was about to retire. They had communicated through letters a few days ago. Logically, Lu Ji had no reason to touch such a dangerous thing.

But there is no need to be too surprised. After all, those are Visas' body parts. It is not surprising that anyone goes crazy about them.

The most important thing now is to find out the exact whereabouts of the finger. After all, the heretics from the Wildfire Cult have gotten involved, and the news can no longer be concealed. If we don't try our best to find the finger that is lost outside, things will become more and more troublesome.

In Corey's opinion, the probability of two fingers appearing at the same time was too small. It was most likely a smokescreen released by the other party to confuse them.

But this also shows that the guy who snatched the finger is an insider, otherwise he wouldn't know so much about Visas' body parts.

It is no secret that there are still many body parts of Visas wandering around in the world. Any drunken thug in a bar in any city can find out about this.

But the secret is that most people don't know which body parts are lost.

The gods did not deal with Visas' body in a random manner. They decomposed and sealed not only Visas' body, but also his power.

All of those decomposed body parts carry Visas' characteristics and... rules during his lifetime.

And this information is top secret even in major churches.

Bishop Corey took a chained, titleless ancient book from the bookshelf. He stroked the spine of the book and injected the power of the Rhine into it.

Then with a "click", the chain on the ancient book broke, and the contents of the book gradually appeared in Bishop Corey's eyes.

This book was jointly compiled by the four orthodox religions, and in the early days even the four orthodox gods personally participated in adding content. It carries the power of the gods, and those with weak minds may become mentally ill just by taking a look at it.

The purpose of this book is to record all kinds of "taboo objects" that have appeared in this world.

Most of these "forbidden things" have brought trouble to the world, either natural disasters or man-made disasters, and whenever they appear, they bring thick blood.

Some of these "forbidden objects" have been taken in by the four major orthodox religions, but some are still missing. They may be in the hands of the four major esoteric religions, or they may be lost among the people. But no matter which one it is, as long as it appears, the four major orthodox religions have the obligation to take it in and seal it up.

These "forbidden things" are also bizarre, but they also have to be divided into high and low levels. The low-harmful ones can confuse the minds of several people, while the high-harmful ones can make an entire city-state fall into abnormality. Therefore, the four major orthodox religions also put the relatively weaker ones at the front of the book and the relatively stronger ones at the back of the book according to their comprehensive harm.

Then, the one hundred most harmful "taboo items" were ranked and recorded in the last ten pages of this ancient book.

And all the parts of Visas' body are among these one hundred "forbidden objects".

Relying on his memory, Bishop Corey turned the book to the third to last page, which recorded Visas' two lost fingers.

[Taboo Item 29 - Visas' Finger (Left Middle Finger)]

[Taboo Item 24 - Visas' Finger (Right Thumb)]

When it comes to these top 100 taboo items, they must be stored and sealed with extreme caution, and different preparations must be made based on their characteristics.

For example, these two fingers carry completely different characteristics and rules.
