This is just an example.

Involuntarily, his mind flashed back to the scene of him memorizing "The Rhine Covenant" all night long more than ten years ago. He recalled how Luji never forgot to swing the whip when he was playing the "game", the anticipation and nervousness before the three tests, the disappointment and confusion after getting the results, and the gritted teeth to start over again.

This is just an isolated case, he reminded himself again.

So that day, he went to countless small churches and asked the same question to countless low-level priests.

The Rhine Covenant

"Uh,

"Wait for me for a moment. I'll go get one from the back."

“Is there an eighth one?”

"This...it's been so long that I can't remember it clearly, but please don't doubt my devotion to the Lord."

With each answer, Ulu's heart sank to the bottom.

Except for the first two Urus, he still had hope, but he couldn't remember the others. He felt like he was doing some kind of formulaic behavior. He walked into a new church, asked a question, and then left quickly. His expression and heart gradually became numb, so much so that he didn't know what he was doing. His brain seemed to be stagnant, and only his body was repeating an action, and then getting the same or similar answer.

Finally, when he asked the question again and got the same answer, and was about to leave, he heard a famous priest say with some anger and disdain: "Are you kidding me? How many words are there in the Rhine Covenant? Who the hell can recite it?"

Uru stood still, and he felt something surge up in his heart.

Like a mighty and relentless tide, it instantly washed away his expectations and memories, so much so that his body was trembling slightly under this inner wave.

"You ask, how many words are there in the Rhine Covenant?"

The priest, who had a bad temper, heard what Ulu said and turned to look at him unhappily: "What are you mumbling about?"

"I mean, you were asking how many words there were in the Rhine Covenant, right?"

The priest frowned and said, "So what? You fucking ..."

Before he could finish his words, Uru suddenly exploded, rushed over and pushed the priest against the wall.

"I'm telling you! The Rhine Covenant has 534,286 words!" Uru stared at the priest, his eyes looking like he wanted to eat him.

Ulu's voice became louder and louder, attracting the attention of the entire church. Everyone looked at this black-robed man who came from nowhere and was yelling at the church priest like a madman.

"…The Lord will help those who are lost to find the right path, and will help those who persevere to gain something. The Lord will not disappoint any devout believer! This is

Ulu's voice was completely broken in the last sentence, so much so that his saliva splashed all over the face of the irritable priest.

The church was silent.

The irritable priest stared at Ulu blankly, totally confused as to why Ulu was like this. After being silent for more than ten seconds, he couldn't help but ask, "So what?"

...So, what?

At that moment, the irritable priest saw a bigger and more dangerous light blooming in Ulu's eyes. He seemed to really want to kill someone. This kind of momentum made the irritable priest completely lose his previous irritability, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

But soon, the light disappeared. Almost in an instant, the beast-like pupils turned into the eyes of a decadent and wretched middle-aged man, and even the force that pressed the violent priest against the wall disappeared.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, he slowly turned around and left.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but his body is a little more hunched than before.

Chapter 46: This Eye Begins to Bite

After leaving the chapel, Uru's mind was in a mess.

He didn't know what to do or where to go. He walked numbly in the bustling city of Som, as if he had lost his soul, and just kept moving forward.

It seems like he wants to escape, but it also seems like he wants to go somewhere.

He didn't know how long he had been walking until it got dark. Bai Wei's lazy voice rang in his mind: "Although I really don't want to disturb your interest at this time, if you are going to walk into a trap, I think I still have to stop you."

Ulu was stunned. Unconsciously, he felt that the road under his feet was somewhat familiar. There were suddenly many people wearing priest uniforms around him. This made him realize something and he immediately raised his head.

The Westminster Cathedral, which symbolizes the Holy Rhine, stood before him like a silent giant, staring at him with cold eyes.

How did you get to this place?

Ulu came to his senses immediately, and looking at the clergy coming and going around him, he subconsciously wanted to lower the brim of his hat.

Bai Wei's voice sounded at the right time: "Don't you think it's suspicious that you are dressed like a black marketeer in this place? It's like you are shouting 'All eyes on me'."

Only then did Ulu abruptly stop what he was doing.

Indeed, if he does nothing now, others will not think there is anything wrong with him. After all, outside the church, besides the clergy, there are more believers coming and going. If he does not do anything out of the ordinary, no one will notice him. If he deliberately covers up, it will have the opposite effect.

But even so, Uru couldn't relax. After all, he was now a wanted criminal in Rhine. Although it was not made public, Bishop Corey, who wanted to catch him the most, was in the West Cathedral.

Once someone recognizes him...

This thought just popped up in his mind and disappeared in an instant, and a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Who would recognize him?

The last time he came to this place was the last assessment ten years ago. He never came here again in the following ten years. The only person who had contact with the West Cathedral was Kelsey, who had been split in two by him... oh no, to be more precise, by Visas. So that he was standing here so dignified, and the clergy passing by didn't even look at him.

Just like the solemn statue of the Rhine God on the cathedral, He looks at everyone equally and pays no attention to anyone.

"Are you still missing the life you never had?" Bai Wei's voice sounded again, still lazy, without a trace of nervousness, as if the priests coming and going were not something he could take seriously.

In this case, Ulu was unwilling to admit defeat. He took a deep breath, adjusted his state a little, and replied coldly: "I just want to familiarize myself with the road first."

"Familiar with the road?"

"If our deal fails, how can I get you here in the shortest possible time?" Ulu said, "This should be your way home."

Wulu originally thought that such "disrespectful" words would make Bai Wei angry, and he was ready to face Bai Wei's anger, but he didn't expect that Bai Wei still didn't care. He just smiled and said: "Ah, if there really comes a day like that, I hope you can really run faster, but I will definitely hold you back... I mean physically."

This answer made Wu Lu's eyelids twitch. He realized that he was no match for Bai Wei in terms of talking, so he changed the subject abruptly: "Is this what you want me to see today?"

"Ok?"

"The content of the deal is clearly the truth about my mother's death." Wu Lu said coldly, "You are doing something other than a deal. Is this what you call sincerity?"

Bai Wei smiled and said, "How do you know that what I showed you is not the truth?"

Ulu paused for a moment: "...What do you mean?"

"You said you wouldn't believe what I said and that you had to see it with your own eyes." Bai Wei said, "So, I'm letting you see it, but whether you can discover it or not is up to you."

"You mean I've seen the murderer today?"

"Yes and no."

"...What do you mean?" Ulu suppressed the anger in his heart, "Are you taking me for an idiot?!"

"The murderer has appeared." Bai Wei calmly interrupted Wu Lu's words, "Very conspicuous."

Already appeared?!

Ulu's heart trembled, and then he subconsciously looked around, trying to find the "obvious murderer" that Bai Wei mentioned.

Then, he saw an old man in luxurious clothes, surrounded by countless priests, walking slowly towards him, and his pupils suddenly froze.

He knows this man.

High Priest Heri.

Ten years ago, it was he who presided over the assessment and personally issued Ulu an "unqualified" certificate.

He is the murderer of his mother? !

Ulu was filled with shock and confusion, but he didn't have time to think too much at this moment. If there was anyone in the West Cathedral who knew him, then High Priest Heri was one of them. So Ulu, who was afraid of being recognized, didn't have time to think too much. Before Heri noticed this, he immediately turned around and left.

High Priest Heri was smiling at the people who were saluting him. He was enjoying the process very much, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the only figure who was leaving with his back to him.

He felt a little confused, but did not take it too seriously. After saying "May the Rhine bless you" to all the believers who saluted him, he entered the West Cathedral.

……

After entering the West Cathedral, Hurry went directly to the bishop's room. After knocking gently on the bishop's door and getting a promise, he respectfully pushed the door open and walked in.

"Good afternoon, Bishop Corey."

Corey, who was resting with his eyes closed, leaned back in his chair and spoke slowly: "Well...how are things going?"

"The representative team of the Lyra Cult has entered the city and settled down." He Li bowed slightly and replied, "Everything will be done according to the regulations, but other than that..."

"Ok?"

"Tianqin hopes that we can help them get rid of a person, and they are willing to pay for it."

"Oh?" Corey slowly opened his eyes and looked at Hurry. "Very interesting. Who is he?"

The moment Corey "saw" him, Hurry felt his body tremble and his soul shake.

But fortunately, he was used to such sights, and quickly handed over a document: "This is the list sent by Tianqin, please take a look."

Corey took the file, opened it, glanced at it, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Interesting, it's actually..."

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt a pain in his left eye as if it was being pricked by a needle.

Before he realized what was happening, he heard Herri's horrified voice: "Bishop Corey, your left eye... is bleeding!"

Corey was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously reached out and touched it, and sure enough, he felt a large pool of blood.

Then he felt the crazy throbbing of his left eye. This eye, which had been silent for who knows how many years, seemed to suddenly come alive and tried desperately to leave this body.

How is this going?

After a brief moment of daze, Corey stood up abruptly, walked quickly to the office window and looked out.

People were coming and going outside the cathedral, and there was nothing unusual.

But Corey knew something was coming.

Because this eye,

Started biting.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 47 This eye is safe with me

Hurry was startled by Bishop Corey's sudden action. In his impression, Corey rarely lost his composure like this. This was related to his originally calm character and also to that eye. After getting that eye, Corey seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, and nothing could block his vision.

But today, there was a problem with the eye. He Li clearly saw that the forbidden eye suddenly seemed to come alive, trying desperately to get out of Bishop Corey's sunken eye socket, so that blood seemed to be flowing out of the corners of Bishop Corey's eyes.

This was obviously no small matter, as could be seen from the fact that Bishop Corey stood by the window for a full ten minutes without saying a word.

Finally, he lost his temper and said, "Corey, that eye..."

"It's a little restless." Corey interrupted Heri's unspoken question lightly, "It's biting me."

At this moment, Corey had used the power of the Rhine to calm the eye, and it fell "asleep" again. When Harry looked over, all he saw was a pupil with a little bloodshot, but the rest of the pupil was no different from a normal eye. It was hard to believe that it had just come back to life like that, and as Corey said, it bit its owner hard.

"What's going on?" He Li asked again, "It shouldn't have been a problem for a long time, right?"

"To be precise, there has been no problem since it came into my hands." Corey replied calmly, "It has been so long that I almost thought it was my eye."

"Then why did it suddenly react?"

Corey was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Maybe, he sensed the breath of his own kind."

He Li's eyes widened little by little: "Same kind?"

"The Taboo Book states that there is a special attraction between the corpses of Visas." Corey turned to face Heri, "They can sense each other's presence and even... try to get close to each other."

Hurry didn't know about this. After listening to Corey's description, he subconsciously took a breath and said, "This sounds like..."

"The scattered pieces of the body want to come together again, to make the body that was decomposed by the gods complete," Corey said, "as if this could bring back the annihilated soul."
