Chapter 25 Good, You Finally Fell In
After leaving Kelse, Uru's expression immediately became gloomy.
He was not a fool. It was obvious why Kelsey was suddenly willing to tell him the rules of the [Forbidden Object] and kept emphasizing that the cultist who took away his finger had no deterrent power except for that extra rule, and instigated him to deal with the cultist.
"That bastard." Ulu gritted his teeth and said, "He wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife. He actually wanted to get rid of me!"
"Is he going to get rid of you just like you want to get rid of him?" Bai Wei said slowly.
Wulu was speechless for a moment, and after a while he stammered, "I, I just wanted to get rid of him, it was just an idea, but this guy has already taken action."
"Do you want to explain something to me?" Bai Wei raised his head again, looking at Wu Lu with his arms folded across his chest. "You want to say that you still value the 'brotherly' relationship between you and him. You would not attack him unless it is absolutely necessary... Do you want to use this to show your loyalty or your feelings for him?"
"No, I didn't!" Ulu denied it, of course. "I just... don't want to kill too many people. The current situation is already very dangerous. If I attack Kelsey again..."
"The moment you connected my finger, you became the enemy of the world." Bai Wei said lightly.
If this sentence was said to some teenagers with the same Chuunibyou syndrome, it would definitely make them excited. But if it was said to Uru, the old ass-eye priest, he would only tremble with fear. Then he looked around repeatedly to see if he had noticed the strange upright finger. Then he lowered his voice and carefully reminded: "V, Lord Visas, you'd better be careful. After all, these people are looking for you."
Bai Wei really felt helpless about Ulu's reaction.
Why, couldn't he fall into the hands of a cultist whose only thought was to destroy the world, and who would scream and shout that he was willing to devote himself wholeheartedly once he discovered his existence? Wouldn't that be much more convenient?
This old asshole priest is such a nuisance.
But Bai Wei did not express his impatience, but said calmly: "Don't worry, the inspection methods of these low-level knights should not be enough to detect me."
"Uh..." After hearing Bai Wei's words, Wu Lu was a little confused, "Then why did you ask me to disguise myself when you came here?"
When coming out of the church, Ulu did encounter several checkpoints, but Bai Wei let Ulu pass through as a church priest.
The Rhine Church was a place with a strict hierarchy. Although Uru was only a small local priest, he was nominally one level higher than the lowest-ranking knights, so the knights did not dare to force him. Of course, it was also because they assumed that the finger was on the cultist and excluded Uru, the priest of the church.
But this is still a risky behavior after all, especially since Uru just told Kelse that he had been checked on the way here. If Kelse checked it like this, he would be in big trouble.
Therefore, Uru didn’t understand, if the current detection methods of the church knights really could not detect Bai Wei’s existence, then why should he take the risk?
"I said, it's 'should', not 'definitely'." Bai Wei naturally had an explanation for this. He said calmly, "In the past, you really didn't have the technical ability, but after all, I have slept for so long, who knows if you have updated it? I don't care, but do you dare to take the risk?"
"Well, of course I don't dare to do that."
Ulu immediately skipped over the topic, but that was also because he didn't think there was anything wrong with Bai Wei's words, and this reason was sufficient.
So he didn't think that this was just another trap set by Bai Wei for him.
During the days when he was possessed by Ulu, Bai Wei was dedicated to digging various traps for Ulu. Ulu had already jumped into some of the traps, but not into others. In order to prevent him from not jumping into them or missing out on some, Bai Wei could only dig more traps for him.
Of course, he couldn't notice this.
Fortunately, Bai Wei did a good job in this regard.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Suddenly, Ulu covered his mouth and started coughing again. The coughing became more and more violent. When he put his hand down, he saw, not surprisingly, that his palm was full of blood.
"It seems that your injury has not healed completely yet." Before Wu Lu spoke, Bai Wei said lightly, "After you recover, go and strengthen your physical strength first. You are too weak. How can you be my disciple at this level?"
Ulu heard the undisguised sarcasm in Bai Wei's words.
But unexpectedly, he did not feel nervous as before, and even had a very strange, indescribable feeling.
Perhaps it’s because Bai Wei mentioned “later”.
Yes, no matter what, at least there is Master Visas. Even if he is no longer a priest of Rhine, he is still a disciple of Master Visas.
This gave him a slight sense of peace of mind despite his current difficult situation.
"I understand, Lord Visas, I won't let you down." Uru wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and continued on his way. At the same time, he thought of what Kelsey had just said, and asked, "By the way, Lord Visas, what do you think of the methods that Kelsey just mentioned that can deal with your rules?"
"Opinion? I don't have any opinion."
"So...will it work?"
"I don't know either." Bai Wei said half-truthfully, "I've never been so weak before, so weak that I only have one finger left. When I was alive, all your methods were ineffective against me. Now I only have one finger left, and you still have to think of countermeasures. I can only say that it makes me feel a little ridiculous, but I really don't have experience in this area - using one finger to hit someone."
Ulu felt that Bai Wei's answer sounded a bit... humorous.
Can Lord Visas also be humorous?
He was very curious, but he didn't dare to ask. Just at this moment, a few well-dressed people came towards him, so he immediately put his hand down and pretended nothing had happened.
Judging from the clothes of the people coming towards him, they were not knights, but servants of the landlord. Before the knights arrived, Kelsey borrowed these servants from the landlord's home to serve as a temporary checkpoint.
Naturally, these people did not dare to check on Father Ulu, but they did not care too much about it. They acted as if they did not see Ulu, chatting and laughing among themselves, holding a bag of blood-stained food in their hands.
Ulu also noticed the bag of grain and suddenly felt that it looked familiar.
Then he heard the conversation of the servants.
"That little brat, I don't know where he got it from."
"It must have been stolen from the master's house, but it doesn't matter. It belongs to us anyway."
Ulu was slightly startled, and he looked at the bag of food again.
It wasn't stained with blood, it was soaked in blood and droplets were leaking out from it.
At this moment, Ulu's mind went blank.
Next second!
With a "bang".
Ulu pressed the servant's head against the wall and yelled like a lunatic: "Tell me! What did you do to that brat?!"
Like a dog guarding its food.
Bai Wei, who witnessed all this, smiled slightly.
Great, you finally fell in.
Although, in this way.
