Chapter 325: Bishop Rocky will not become the predecessor as well, right?
“Have you Rhine’s fighting methods always been so brutal?” Fenris looked at the holy light rising into the sky in the distance and couldn’t help asking the chief knight under Loki, “Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss just to deal with a scholar who can’t use the power of dreams? Everyone in the town is about to wake up.”
"Bishop Loki's fighting style is indeed more casual." The chief knight looked strange, "But are you really sure that you want our bishop to fight against a scholar who is powerless?"
"Who else could it be other than him? I can sense that he is right there." Fenris said puzzledly, "It's impossible that he has become stronger in such a short time? Is fitness really effective?"
The Chief Knight couldn't help but glance at Fenris.
No wonder Bishop Rocky has been saying that these Eternal Nightmare Apostles were so sleepy that they lost their minds and could even say such bullshit.
But the problem is that the commotion made by Bishop Rocky was indeed too loud. Judging from the commotion, Bishop Rocky should have entered the "God's Blessing" mode.
But is there really anyone here who can allow Bishop Rocky to use "God's Blessing"?
To be on the safe side, the chief knight asked Fenris, "Is the Dream of All Living Things that you cast on the Bishop still there?"
"That's what I wanted to say," Fenris said. "I can feel that the dream of all living things is weakening, but the reason for the weakening is that the noise is too great. The people who have entered the dream are waking up one after another, rather than being polluted and dying."
"You mean that the Bishop's enemies did not use that forbidden knowledge against the Bishop?"
Fenris nodded.
Hearing Fenris say this, the Chief Knight felt even more uneasy.
Is Bishop Lodge really fighting that scholar? Or is it someone else?
"Master Knight." Another knight asked cautiously, "Should we go and provide support?"
"But the bishop didn't give any orders." The chief knight frowned slightly, "What if he just enjoys fighting? You should know Bishop Loki well. He likes to make a lot of noise no matter what he does. During this time when he and the little priest were in the carriage, he shouted louder than anyone else..."
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, my Lord Knight, please be careful with your words, be careful with your words."
The Chief Knight then came to his senses and glanced at Fenris beside him.
I almost forgot there were outsiders here.
Fortunately, Fenris still looked like he had not woken up yet, and did not seem to think that there was anything wrong with what they said. He only muttered "The old asshole is quite playful" when the chief knight turned his gaze back.
"Master Knight, I think we should go and take a look." The knight said again, "I always feel like this place is familiar."
"Deja vu?" asked the chief knight. "Why do you feel familiar?"
"Well, to be honest, my brother works in the West Church." The knight said, "He encountered a similar situation a few months ago. The previous bishop Corey dismissed all the knights under his command and stayed alone in the cathedral to "entertain" the guests. He also ordered that no one was allowed to approach."
"Then what?"
"Then he was the previous bishop." The knight answered honestly.
Chief Knight: “…”
Why does this sound so dangerous?
But before the chief knight could make a decision, the noise in the distance finally stopped.
The original noise and bustle turned into silence in an instant, leaving everyone present unable to react and they just looked at each other subconsciously.
"Bishop Rocky won't..." The knight swallowed the saliva stuck in his throat, "He will also become the predecessor, right?"
The chief knight slapped the knight hard on the back of the head.
"Fuck you, what are you talking about... No, don't fucking talk nonsense. If you really say that the bishop is dead, I will be the first to kill you!"
Although he acted very fierce, the Chief Knight was also a little panicked.
Is Bishop Lodge really dead?
Just as the chief knight was hesitating whether to disobey orders and go find Bishop Loki, a running figure suddenly appeared at the end of his sight.
It was Bishop Lodge!
The Rhine knights were immediately ecstatic.
"The Bishop is back!"
"The Bishop is not dead! He is not dead!"
They cheered as if they had won a great victory, until Rocky ran up to them and they realized something was wrong.
Because at this moment Rocky looked like he had crawled out of a sea of blood, with wounds all over his body, his face was as pale as his butt, and his lips were trembling uncontrollably.
The knights were horrified. Before they could react what was happening, they heard Rocky's roar.
"What the hell are you still looking at? Save me!"
This time the knights came to their senses and immediately rushed forward.
"What's wrong with you, Bishop?!"
"Here we come, here we come!"
Rocky grabbed the knight closest to him and said through gritted teeth, "Hurry up and get my priests over here. All of them. Have them treat me according to plan number three. Quickly!"
"Yes!" The knight immediately prepared to find the priest, but before he took two steps, he was pulled back by Rocky.
"And that bitch!" Rocky yelled, "Go catch her! She's dying too, go now!"
The chief knight immediately realized that the bishop was talking about the enemy he was fighting, and the enemy must be in a very bad condition.
"Don't worry, Bishop. We will set off right away!" The chief knight said as he looked at Fenris standing aside. "Mr. Fenris, please help us."
Fenris also came back to his senses from his surprise, and then nodded slightly: "It seems that Bishop Loki did not encounter that guy, then we will naturally go to help."
The chief knight nodded repeatedly and immediately ordered the knights to prepare to set off.
But before leaving, he couldn't help but look back at Rocky who was slowly leaving with the help of others.
Mainly look at Rocky's right hand.
Because his right hand was covered in blood, with only the thumb alone connected to the flesh, which was heartbreaking to see.
What kind of enemy could actually cut off four fingers of Bishop Rocky?
The Chief Knight took a deep breath and said nothing more. He immediately led his Rhine Knights and Eternal Nightmare Apostles to the place where Loki had fought before.
The location was easy to find, and they arrived there in less than five minutes.
This place is already in a mess, with all kinds of deep pits and sword marks. Just by looking at these, one can imagine what kind of battle took place here.
The chief knight immediately ordered a search for "the woman" that Bishop Lodge had mentioned.
But alas, they found nothing except the mess.
…
On the other side, Edwin, who had returned to the hotel, carefully knocked on Hevinia's door.
"Um...Miss Helvinia, are you okay?"
After a brief silence, Hevinia's voice came from the room: "This is the third time you have asked me in half an hour. Why, do you want me to die sooner?"
"Of course not." Edwin said, "I'm just worried that something might happen to you. After all, you were in that state just now. Do you really not need my help? In fact, I also know some medical spells."
"No need to help me with the treatment." Hevinia said calmly, "If you want to attack me at this time, you can just come in and don't have to find so many reasons to test me."
"Look at what you said. Why should I attack you?" Edwin said righteously, "Aren't we companions?"
"Oh, really?" Helvinia said meaningfully, "You really don't want to get my body parts?"
Edwin choked, then asked tentatively: "Do you really have body parts?"
"Who knows?" Hevinia said calmly, "You'll know if you come in and take a look."
Edwin subconsciously wanted to push the door open, but when he raised his hand, he remembered what Helvinia had just said, "Come in if you want to fight." He paused immediately. After hesitating for a moment, he took his hand back and said awkwardly, "Look at you, what do you think of me? Even if you really have body parts, I can't possibly do anything to you. You were injured to help me. If I were to take advantage of your misfortune at this time, wouldn't that be a beast?"
Hevinia didn't reply, and it was unclear whether she didn't want to reply or she was unconscious.
This made Edwin frown.
He came to see Hevinia three times in half an hour. Of course, he was not worried about Hevinia, but wanted to check her physical condition.
It can be said that the previous battle between Helvinia and Loki shocked Edwin deeply. He would probably never forget the scene where the Bishop of Rhine was just one move away from being killed on the spot.
But in addition to shock, Edwin also had a lot of doubts in his mind.
That was how Hevinia knew that Rocky was the owner of the body part, and how she fought with Bishop Rhine who owned the body part.
The first point is especially worth pondering. Although Edwin does not have a body part, he knows that the holders of the body parts will attract each other. And if Hevinia also has a body part, then the second question can be explained. With the seven notes and the body part, it is really not difficult to beat a Rhine Bishop.
However, Edwin watched Hevinia's battle from beginning to end, and Edwin never saw Hevinia use the rules. She almost killed Rocky with the power of the seven notes.
Yes, it’s just that one step away. If we add the power of the corpse, wouldn’t it be enough?
But why doesn't she use it?
Is it because it doesn’t exist, or because… it has been used?
Edwin couldn't help but think of Hevinia's state when she was one move short of winning the last chess game. Her whole body seemed to be corrupted by some virus, and the flesh and blood all over her body was about to fall off her bones.
At that time, Edwin thought she was going to die there, but he didn't expect that not only did Hevinia not die, but she was able to struggle to come back here.
And Edwin thought that was her last breath, and that she would die soon after returning, but she never died.
Even though Edwin came to her house three times in half an hour, he could clearly feel that Hevinia's condition was getting better and better. At first she was so weak that she could hardly speak, but now she could communicate with him calmly.
It's only been half an hour. Has she recovered to this extent?
So is it possible that it is the power of the corpse that she possesses? Otherwise it is really hard to explain.
Moreover, she is already a seven-tone player. Even without the corpse parts, she is still one of the best in the world. So what happened to her injury just now?
Many puzzles came to Edwin's mind, and he began to regret that he had been so busy with research and fitness in the past six months that he forgot to look for information from the outside world. Logically speaking, since there was such a person as Shengyin, there should be news about her everywhere. As long as he paid a little attention, it would be easy to get a general idea.
But unfortunately, he is now running for his life. The two pursuers from Rhine and Eternal Nightmare are still in this town. Going out alone at this time is definitely not a good choice.
As for whether to take advantage of Hevinia's weakness and force her to hand over the body parts...
If he could go back half an hour, Edwin might have taken action, but now Hevinia has obviously recovered a lot, and with his strength, if he wants to snatch the body parts from Hevinia, he can only use that knowledge. But once he takes out that knowledge, whether he can defeat Hevinia is another matter. First of all, he will be discovered by the Church of Eternal Nightmare, and at that time he will not be able to escape even if he wants to.
Moreover, he still couldn't be 100% sure that Hevinia had body parts. It was really foolish to take such a risk and turn against his most powerful helper at this time.
After realizing this, Edwin hypocritically asked Hevinia to have a good rest, and said that he would not come again tonight, then turned and left.
In the room, Hevinia looked at Edwin's feet as he left through the door, then silently put down the staff in her hand and sighed softly.
Just a little bit more and Rocky would be killed.
If her body could hold on for even another twenty seconds, Rocky would not be able to escape.
All I can say is that the virus is too powerful. Once she uses all her notes in battle, she will immediately slide into the abyss of death.
But even so, she still had a chance to kill Rocky, as long as she tried to release Tianshendang.
But if that happened, even if she didn't die, she would definitely be at the end of her rope, and then there was a high possibility that Edwin, the old ghost, would take advantage of her, which was something she absolutely didn't want to see.
Even if she was going to die, she had to make sure that her body parts would be returned to Bai Wei.
Helvinia looked at the four bloody fingers on the table.
It was a pity that the last four shots all missed the target, but that was also because her condition was really too bad and being able to hit any shots was already her limit.
However, missing the target may not be a bad thing.
If she was hit, Rocky, who regarded the body parts as his life, might not continue to run away. If he really stopped to fight her, it would be troublesome. And if Edwin knew clearly that she had body parts, it was hard to say whether he would choose to turn against her.
All in all, there are pros and cons.
This was the first time Hevinia fought with all her might after having Qiyin and Bones. Although she didn't get a perfect ending, she at least gained experience.
For example, if there is a next time.
Then kill Edwin first.
She thought so.
