"Oh, the disaster is more serious than expected, so Bishop Corey arranged for us to come here for inspection." Kelsey walked to Uru's side and complained, "This is only the second stop. After this, we have to go to the churches in other towns to see if the relief food has been distributed to the victims."

"That's it."

"Yeah... Haha, what's that expression on your face? Are you worried about something? Stop joking. Don't I know what kind of people you and Father Luigi are?" Kelsey gave Uru an "ambiguous" look. "You are the most devout believers of our Lord and the most capable men under the Bishop. If even you have problems, what should the Rhine Church do?"

Ulu reluctantly agreed with a smile.

He was indeed worried, but what he was worried about was not that the matter of the relief grain would be exposed, because Kelsey was one of their own, and when the grain came into their hands, this guy had already taken 10% of it.

But the problem is that this guy is too close to us.

The relationship between Kelce and Luigi is much better than the relationship between him and Uru.

And if Kelsey knew that he had killed Luggie, his life would probably be over.

"So you're going to send a letter to Bishop Corey?" Kelsey noticed the letter in Uru's hand again, and then took it carelessly. "Then just give it to me directly, and I'll take it to the bishop for you. It's definitely faster than the post office... Well, but the bishop's eyesight isn't very good, so it's a bit troublesome for him to read the letter. If you have anything to say, just tell me and let me tell the bishop. Tsk, I'd better just read your letter. It's troublesome to carry it with me."

Kelsey was about to open the letter.

"This is not my letter." Uru felt a little guilty and said quickly, "This is Father Luigi's letter. I just came to help him mail it."

Although he didn't know what he was feeling guilty about.

When he heard that it was a letter from Luji, Kelsey stopped opening the envelope and said, "Is it a letter from Father Luji? Well... I'd better not open it then."

After saying that, he put the letter away carefully.

Wulu asked calmly: "You just said you were busy? How long can you stay here?"

He hoped that Kelsey wouldn't be able to stay even for a day and leave here quickly.

But unfortunately, Kelsey's answer was: "You have to stay for two days at least. Besides, since you are here, you have to see Father Luigi. Is he in the church?"

"Maybe."

Kelsey raised an eyebrow, "Maybe? What does that mean, where else could he go?"

"Haha, don't you see what time it is?" Ulu made a subtle "you know" expression, "Due to the famine, many children in these families cannot afford to eat. They don't even have the energy to come to the church to get relief food. Father Luji couldn't bear to see this happen, so he went to deliver food to those families in need."

It was a normal statement, but Kelsey understood the other meaning of Uru, and his expression suddenly became strange: "Really? He is already this old, and he can still be so...dedicated?"

Ulu shrugged: "Who knows?"

"...Haha." Kelsey patted Ulu's shoulder, "Okay, then you go back and see if he's there. If he is, tell him and I'll go find him later."

Ulu said calmly: "He may come back very late."

"Then I'll wait until then." Kelsey had already turned and left. Hearing Ulu's words, he waved his hand without even turning his head. "Anyway, I have nowhere to stay tonight, so I'll just stay with you then."

Wulu smiled slightly: "Then I will make tea in advance and wait for you."

Kelsey waved his hand again, and the knight in the post office left with him.

Ulu stood there and watched them go away.

Just watch and watch.

After they completely disappeared from his sight, Ulu jumped up as if a spring that had been compressed to the limit and suddenly released, and rushed into the church quickly.

At this moment, his whole body was soaked with cold sweat, and he kept repeating: "It's over, it's over."

Bai Wei's voice rang in his mind at the right moment: "Why are you so nervous?"

Ulu was slightly stunned.

Kelce's sudden appearance frightened him so much that he even forgot that there was a great god living in his body. So Uru, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, shouted in his mind: "Lord Visas! That guy, that guy knows that bastard Luji. If he knew that Luji was dead and was killed by me, he would definitely, definitely kill me."

"Be quiet, your brain is disturbing me." Bai Wei said unhappily.

Ulu immediately closed the mouth in his mind.

Then Bai Wei asked: "Are you afraid of him?"

"He is different from Luji. Luji is just a priest who knows only a few extraordinary spells." Uru said, "Kelce is the knight commander. He is much stronger than Luji. You should be able to feel it. He..."

"To me, there is no difference." Bai Wei interrupted Ulu calmly.

Ulu was stunned.

Yes, no matter how powerful Kelsey is, compared with Visas, he is just... no, they are not comparable. Comparing Kelsey and Visas is an insult to Visas.

The only one who can be compared to Lord Visas is his lord, the God of the Rhine.

Thinking of this, Uruna felt relieved.

He looked down at his left hand, and the scene of him killing Luggie with a snap of his fingers last night reappeared in his mind.

If it really comes to that point...

"Then kill him." Bai Wei calmly helped Ulu finish the second half of his thought.

"I... understand." Ulu took a deep breath, and a hint of determination and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Bai Wei naturally noticed Uru's changes.

Bai Wei was very satisfied.

Bai Wei actually knew why Kelse came. It was not for the disaster as he said, but to find a forbidden item.

That is Visas' middle finger.

That is Bai Wei.

In the game, this is also when the main storyline begins.

In the plot, Uru is just an insignificant little character. He only got a little role because he got Visas' finger. In the end, he was killed like a minion.

But Bai Wei's arrival will definitely rewrite Uru's ending.

Bai Wei would not let this guy die silently.

It will kill him.

Deafening.

Chapter 10 Eleven Boxes That Can Just Fit Your Fingers

"Is it in here?"

"Yes, Knight Commander, it is in here."

Kelsey raised his head and looked at the dark and deep alley in front of him. He smelled the foul odor coming from the alley and frowned.

"Damn it, these bastards just love to run into corners like this," Kelsey cursed, "and they have to make themselves stink. It's so annoying."

"Well, since you don't like it here, why don't you let us in and you stay outside?"

Kelse really wanted to agree. He really didn't want to be contaminated by the stench here.

But when he thought about who had assigned him this task, he shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, this is something the bishop has assigned me, so I have to do it myself."

As he spoke, he took out a big red handkerchief from his pocket and covered his nose with it, then he frowned and reluctantly entered the alley.

There were quite a few people in the alley, but most of them were sitting on the ground against the wall.

They were pale and thin, obviously in a state of extreme hunger. When they heard footsteps, some of those who still had strength would look up, with a glimmer of hope in their eyes, while those who had no strength could not even raise their heads and fell to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

"What a sin." Kelse's eyes were filled with more disgust, but he still resisted the urge to vent his anger. He walked up to a guy who could still look up at him, squatted down, and said in a cold voice, "I am the Third Knight Commander of the Rhine, and I am acting in accordance with the will of my Lord. You must... can you hear me, damn it?"

Seeing that this guy was really half dead, Kelsey asked his subordinates to bring a piece of bread and wave it in front of him.

The man's eyes instantly came alive.

"Answer my question and I'll give you the bread." Kelsey said coldly, "Do you understand?"

The man nodded repeatedly.

"Have you met a black marketeer here?"

"Black market... businessman?"

"Yes, a black marketeer named Yongsuo." Kelsey said, "You should know what a black marketeer is, right? They are the guys who specialize in selling contraband. They are wrapped in black robes and are easy to identify."

The man tried hard to recall, then shook his head.

Kelsey made a "tsk" sound, and then gestured with his fingers: "Have you ever seen a box about this long? There are some spells engraved on it... Well, since you don't know what a spell is, just tell me if you have ever seen a box this long?"

The man continued to recall, then shook his head again: "No."

Kelsey felt his patience was almost at its limit.

"Then one last question." Kelsey slowly leaned over, put his mouth close to the man's ear, and whispered, "Did you see a finger?"

"Hands, fingers?"

"Yes, a broken finger, either the middle finger of the left hand or the thumb of the right hand." Kelsey said, "I have described it in detail enough, don't ask me to repeat it again... Then tell me, have you ever seen two fingers like this? Think about it carefully before you speak."

The man tried hard to recall.

But he still shook his head under Kelsey's gaze: "No, no."

Then, he immediately looked at the bread in Kelsey's hand and said in a pleading tone: "Sir, Sir Knight, I have already answered your question. This bread, bread, uh..."

His eyes widened and he couldn't finish his words.

Because Kelce had snapped his neck.

He died without even being able to utter a cry, nor did he attract anyone's attention.

Kelsey stood up slowly, disgust in his eyes.

"You can't answer anything and you still want food." He shook his head and walked to the next person, "Answer me this question and I will give you this piece of bread. Have you seen a black market merchant named Yongsuo recently?"

I asked several people in a row, but they all had never seen any black market merchants, and didn't know what the box and the severed finger were.

Just when Kelsey's patience was about to run out, someone finally nodded after hesitating, "I don't know his name, but there is indeed someone selling very strange things. He might be the black market merchant you mentioned."

Kelsey perked up immediately: "Oh? Then where did he go?"

"I don't know." The man shook his head and said with a wry smile, "He stayed here for two days and wanted to sell something to us, but where do we get the money now? And he didn't sell food, so no one paid attention to him. Only... one person bought his stuff?"

Kelsey immediately asked, "Who?"

"I don't know who he is..." Seeing Kelsey's anger rising, the man immediately added, "But he is different from us. He is dressed very cleanly."

"Very clean?" Kelsey didn't understand what this meant at first, but when he saw the victims huddled in the alley, he suddenly understood.

That was a man who was not affected by the famine.

In other words, the financial ability is good.

There is a famine right now, and this is the worst-hit area. There are obviously not many people who are completely unaffected and even come to black market merchants to purchase things.

Kelsey made a judgment in his mind, and then he asked, "So what did he buy?"

The man was a little uncertain: "Probably... a box."

Kelsey's eyes narrowed immediately. "A box? What kind of box?"

"I... don't know how to describe it." The man was a little confused, "and I was quite far away, so I couldn't see clearly."

"Just tell me," Kelsey said calmly, "Is it a box that can just fit a finger?"

The man blinked and murmured as if suddenly realizing something.

"Yes, it is indeed a box that is just big enough to fit a finger."

After a while, Kelsey came out of the alley, wiping the blood off his hands with a handkerchief.

The subordinate immediately followed: "Knight Commander."

"That black market merchant named Yongsuo," Kelsey instructed his men, "should no longer be here. He should have gone to the next town. But don't let him go. Keep looking for him. Make sure you find him and find out what he sold."

"Yes!"

"As for the guy who bought the stuff, our priority now is to find him. A guy who is financially well off, at least he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. Finding him, of course, is the most important thing, and we still have to find the box."

"Yes!" the subordinate asked hesitantly, "Knight Commander, what is in the box that would make the Bishop willing to send our entire team out to search for it?"

"Heh, it's just the last remnant of a long-dead soul." Kelsey finally wiped the blood off his hand and threw the blood-stained handkerchief aside. He then looked back at the alley and said calmly, "Don't let anyone know what we are looking for. Do you understand?"

The men nodded.

As Kelsey left, the two knights raised their swords and returned to the alley.
