Chapter 31 Save me, Lord Visas!
Ulu lay on the ground gasping for breath for more than ten minutes before he realized what he had just done and broke out in a cold sweat.
"V-Lord Visas!" He immediately sat up and lowered his head to look at the middle finger of his left hand. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that this finger was a little red from being pinched by himself. He quickly explained, "I'm sorry, Lord Visas, I just..."
Before he could even utter the words of apology, Bai Wei slowly interrupted him.
"Ah, it looks like you've calmed down."
"Yes, Lord Visas, I just had some..."
"Don't worry about it. Besides, I like your rebellious look better than your current look." Bai Wei said, "Do you want to recover?"
Uru: “…”
Even if he had more courage, he wouldn't dare to recover!
"Tsk, is that all? It's really boring." Bai Wei said, "But your reaction just now is quite interesting. You seem to be different from what I imagined. Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
Bai Wei once again tried to be a caring older sister.
But this time, Ulu just responded with silence.
This silence lasted for several minutes.
Just when Bai Wei thought that the wall in Wu Lu's heart was about to be erected again, Wu Lu slowly spoke again in a low voice: "That little brat is really a lot like me before, even the place we live is similar."
Bai Wei didn't say anything and just listened quietly.
"My father died when I was very young, and I was raised by my mother, who was a devout Rhine believer. This had a profound influence on me. So, after the great famine 20 years ago, when I saw my mother was seriously ill, the first thing I thought of was to go to the Rhine. Then, I met Luji." At this point, Uru's body trembled slightly, as if he was stabbed by the memory of 20 years ago. "Then, my mother died, and from then on, I became Luji's disciple... It was also at that time that I knew that the Rhine priests were different from what I imagined. They were all bastards."
Hearing this, Bai Wei slowly stood up again and looked directly at Wu Lu with his little head: "But you became him."
Ulu's expression suddenly became a little unnatural. He seemed to want to refute, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't say the words of rebuttal.
"You think it was Lu Ji who changed you, not because you were always like this, right?" Bai Wei spoke slowly again.
Ulu did not hesitate at all for this question and answered immediately: "Of course! If I hadn't met that old bastard Luji, if those priests were really the same as the priests my mother imagined, then how could I... become what I am now. Just like that little devil, if he had met Luji instead of me, he would have become the same person! In the final analysis, it's not what kind of person I want to be, but what kind of person the world makes me become, and no one is an exception!"
Wulu tried hard to get himself out. Bai Wei also realized this, but he did not refute anything. He just said lightly: "Really? Very interesting words, I will remember it."
Remember, remember?
Ulu felt a little uneasy about Bai Wei's words, but he couldn't figure out what exactly made him uneasy, so he put it behind his mind for the time being.
"It's getting dark, we should go back."
Ulu glanced at the sky, stood up with a mutter, brushed the dirt off his butt, and walked into the town.
After getting Visas' finger, Uru felt that he had not had a single day of relaxation. Both his physical strength and energy were being rapidly consumed, and today, his mental strength seemed to have been severely cut.
He didn't want to think about anything right now. He just wanted to go back to his room as soon as possible and have a good sleep.
But he didn't know why, after entering the town, he always felt something strange.
Even though it was a disaster year, this street... was it really so quiet?
Ulu stopped walking with some doubt in his mind. He looked around and saw rustling sounds in the dark alleys, as if there were shadows wandering around.
Is it... a mouse?
A strong sense of uneasiness surged into Ulu's heart, causing him to subconsciously call out to Bai Wei in his heart: "Lord Visas, is this place a little..."
Before he could finish his words, Bai Wei's voice sounded faintly: "They are coming."
They...are coming?!
Before Ulu could figure out what this meant, he suddenly felt his left hand sink, and his entire arm suddenly exerted force, dragging his entire body down.
Before he could react, he felt several arrows flying past his scalp. After cutting off a few strands of hair, they were nailed into the wooden wall beside him.
At this moment, Ulu realized what was happening and his eyes widened: "This is..."
Before he could finish his words, several tiny balls of light suddenly shot out from the dark alleys. After landing at Ulu's feet, the balls of light quickly burst into dazzling beams of light and noisy noises.
Uru, whose vision and hearing were attacked at the same time, wailed, and the two church knights took the opportunity to rush in front of him, using the noise emitted by the light beam to cover up the buzzing sound when the holy sword was unsheathed.
As a civilian, Uru was no match for these church knights, especially when the other side was fully prepared.
If nothing unexpected happens, this battle will be over soon.
The two knights who drew their swords seemed to be able to see the scene of Uru's head falling to the ground two seconds later.
But what they didn't know was that Uru had already shouted in his mind two seconds ago: "Lord Visas! Save me!"
Then the two knights who had drawn their swords saw "Uru" suddenly stretch out his right hand, with his thumb pointing downwards.
The two men widened their eyes, and Knight Commander Kelsey's previous instructions immediately flashed in their minds.
This is [Forbidden Item Twenty-Four]!
Is it really the right thumb? !
The two knights immediately raised their hands and formed seals, whispering at the same time: "Rhine!"
This is a spell of mental defense, which can resist all mental interference in a very short period of time. Although it is unclear how much effect such resistance has on the rule-based existence of [Taboo Twenty-four], as long as it can resist for a second or two, it will be enough to decide the outcome of the battle.
However, before the spell could take shape, they heard another crisp snap of fingers.
The spell that was about to be completed was abruptly canceled at this moment.
This sudden change made the two battle-hardened knights a little stunned, and they fell into a state of stiffness as their spellcasting was interrupted.
Then, Bai Wei took advantage of their momentary stiffness and grabbed their sword tips with both hands, slightly changing the direction of their attack.
So, the two swords pierced straight into the throats of each other's owners.
The two knights stared blankly at this so-called civilian staff member, then looked down at his hands, and then they understood.
"It's not [Forbidden Item 24], it's [Forbidden Item 29]..."
"It's not the thumb, it's the middle finger..."
"Quickly notify Lord Kelsey..."
The speed at which the two spoke was not faster than the speed at which their lives were slipping away, so before they could finish their words, they had already hung their heads and lost their lives.
