Tongue, I XXX!

A day later, Luo Qi looked at the Chief Knight who came to report with a gloomy expression.

"You mean, you still haven't found that dead woman?"

"Yes, yes." The Chief Knight looked ashamed. "I'm sorry, Bishop Luo Qi."

"What the hell is the use of an apology! That woman was already injured like that, and you still couldn't catch her! Useless, a bunch of useless trash!"

Luo Qi grew angrier and angrier, and instinctively reached for the medicine bottle on his right and smashed it on the stupid Knight's head, but he realized something was wrong halfway through his hand.

Because he only had one finger left, he couldn't grasp anything at all.

This made him even angrier. "Useless, all of you are fucking useless... cough cough cough..."

"Your Bishop, please take care of yourself; you've only just recovered..."

"Shut up! Cough cough..."

Luo Qi covered his mouth and coughed violently. After coughing, he saw the dark red blood in his palm and became even more furious, his whole body trembling.

He had never been injured like this before, never.

If he hadn't always been cautious and always brought a large group of priests with him wherever he went, he would have lost his life last night due to the triple [disturbance].

But right now, he's only just survived. The cost of his body parts is definitely not something a priest's spell can heal. Last night's battle has shortened his lifespan by at least a decade, or even by half.

Paying such a price is bad enough, but what's even more infuriating is that after paying such a price, they gained nothing but barely escaped with their lives.

Damn it, when has he, the dignified Bishop of the Rhine and the holder of the body parts, ever suffered such an injustice?!

The last time I felt this way was when he slept with me for the first time!

I'm back; the feeling of being young is back.

Luo Qi was practically grinding his teeth to powder, and the Chief Knight could only grit his teeth and explain, "Your Bishop, we simply don't have enough manpower to search every house, and we've also asked Mr. Fenris of the Church of Eternal Nightmare, but they said they couldn't find him either..."

"Don't mention that guy!" Luo Qi roared. "He's a damn liar!"

The Chief Knight immediately shut his mouth, not daring to provoke Luo Qi.

But at that moment, Fenris's voice rang out from behind him.

"I know you are angry, Bishop Luo Qi." Fenris walked up to Luo Qi, still looking as if he hadn't woken up yet. "But please believe me, we have not lied to you about anything. At least, we know nothing about the woman you mentioned."

Logically speaking, Fenris and Luo Qi were of the same rank, so there was absolutely no need for him to use a respectful title for Luo Qi.

But to be honest, looking at Luo Qi's current appearance and the only remaining bare thumb on his right hand, Fenris couldn't help but use a respectful title.

"Moreover, Ai De Wen immediately withdrew that knowledge after the battle last night," Fenris said. "So we have reason to suspect that Ai De Wen released that knowledge to lure us in, and that woman was a henchman he hired. It's a trap!"

Fenris spoke the second half of the sentence with absolute certainty, as if it were a conclusion reached after a night of deep thought.

But Luo Qi was clearly not buying it. He roared, "I'm already in this state, do you think I need you to tell me this is a trap?! Instead of this nonsense, can you say something useful? Don't just stand there watching!"

"Of course, we've always been doing useful things," Fenris said. "But we should think things through before we act. After what happened last night, we should at least figure out what really happened, like who that woman you've been talking about is."

Luo Qi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Although it's a trap, there are very few people in this world who could ambush you and injure you," Fenris said. "And you even said it was a woman. To be honest, when I first heard you say that, I couldn't believe it."

Luo Qi stared coldly at Fenris: "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"Of course not, you certainly wouldn't make a fuss about something like this." Fenris shook his head. "I just want to know what kind of person she is, and whether you know her."

Luo Qi didn't answer immediately because the question was difficult to answer.

He naturally knew who the other person was.

"Tongue".

But he couldn't reveal this information, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain himself. So he remained silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "I only know that she used the Holy Sound spell."

"Holy Sound?" Fenris was very surprised. "Are you sure?"

What do you think?

"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to question you, but it really surprised me," Fenris said. "Because we all know what the situation is like with the Holy Sound now. Only one in ten of the once powerful players remain, and the only one who can stand against you... I can only think of that Seven Sound Player is being hunted down by the Holy Sound Church."

Apart from eccentric old scholars like Ai De Wen, it's impossible that the other high-ranking members of the church were unaware of the situation regarding the Holy Sound.

"It really was that guy." Luo Qi didn't hide this fact, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain who had crippled him. "I took a Seven Sounds spell head-on, and that's why I ended up like this."

Fenris immediately showed an expression of amazement. "Seven-tone spell? That's a legendary spell, and you were able to withstand it head-on?"

"Hmm." Luo Qi put on a sour face that said, "That's how it is." "She was no match for me. If I hadn't wanted to see what the legendary Seven Sounds spell was all about, I wouldn't have been hurt by her."

That's all Luo Qi could say. Otherwise, if he had said that he was so scared when he saw the Seven Sounds spell that he turned and ran away, he would have died on the spot if the other party's body hadn't given up first. And was all his injury the price of this finger?

How could you say that?!

However, the current situation wasn't much better. Upon hearing that Luo Qi had taken the Seven Sounds spell head-on with his bare body, Fenris's expression turned strange, and his eyes no longer seemed to be looking at a normal person. This naturally made Luo Qi even more annoyed.

Before he could vent his anger, a Knight rushed over. "Your Bishop, the Star Relic Church has sent a representative to provide support."

"The Star Relic Church?"

Luo Qi was taken aback at first, then remembered that there was indeed such a thing; the envoy from the Contract Land said that the Star Remnants would come to help.

So, have the three churches come together?

So what should be done with those Three Corpse Pieces?

Luo Qi's expression became complicated, but he didn't say much. He simply suppressed his displeasure and nodded, "Let him come over."

Soon after, a middle-aged woman dressed in a star-patterned robe was brought before Luo Qi; she was Mina, Isaiah's student.

When Mina saw Luo Qi and Fenris, she first bowed slightly in greeting. Just as she was about to speak, her eyes caught sight of Luo Qi's upright right thumb, as if he were giving her a thumbs up. Upon closer inspection, she realized that Luo Qi only had this one thumb on his right hand, which surprised her even more.

This immediately broke Luo Qi's composure, who was trying to calm down. He almost blurted out, "What the hell are you looking at?" but he held back because of the other person's identity.

"You're Isaiah... um?" Luo Qi frowned, realizing something was wrong. "Why is it a woman again?!"

Why use the word "and"?

Mina was puzzled because she sensed an indescribable fear and disgust in Luo Qi's words, but it wasn't directed at her; it was directed at women.

Although she had heard that Rhine preferred to communicate with people of the same sex, Mina still didn't expect it to go to this extent.

"Mr. Isaiah is my teacher." But regardless, the basic formalities still had to be maintained. "We were also summoned to the Contract Land, but my teacher believes that since the two high-ranking members of Rhine and Eternal Nightmare are both here, there's no need for him..."

He couldn't continue speaking halfway through his sentence.

Because at this moment she realized that Luo Qi was clearly injured, and not just slightly, since even his fingers had been ripped off.

In other words, they have already fought against that Forbidden Scholar, and yet they have failed?

"Didn't the old man Isaiah come in person?" Fenris said. "That Forbidden Scholar has a very troublesome helper by his side. If the old man Isaiah could come, we might be more confident."

Then, Fenris told Mina what had happened the night before.

After listening attentively, Mina frowned slightly.

Even the Seven Sound Player stirred up the Holy Sound has arrived, and he's even teamed up with that Forbidden Scholar.

It's really troublesome when two dangerous guys team up, no wonder Luo Qi got beaten up like that, even having his fingers ripped off.

But why leave one after you've already taken it all? Was it specifically for him to like your post?

That's incredibly insulting.

Of course, Mina only thought about this in her mind and would never say it out loud.

"I have a general understanding of the situation." Mina nodded slightly. "I will inform the teacher, but I'm not sure if the teacher will come over."

"What?" Luo Qi said coldly, "Even after all this, is he still staying in Nameless Town watching the show?"

"Of course, it's not about watching a show," Mina said. "It's just that Teacher's health isn't good. As we all know, the Star Remnant Land is located on the edge of the continent, and the journey has already taken a heavy toll on his body. He needs some rest to prepare for the upcoming gathering."

Seeing Mina say this, even if Luo Qi was still dissatisfied, he couldn't continue complaining.

After all, in terms of rank, Isaiah of the Star Remnant was actually on par with their Pope, and as a bishop, he naturally had to be careful.

If Isaiah doesn't come, and Rocky is left to contend with the "tongue" of this sleeping cult leader next to him, Luo Qi thinks it's better to find a way to escape.

But Mina said again, "Although the teacher cannot come in person, he has entrusted me to provide assistance to everyone, so the Star Relic Sect will also contribute to the next operation."

"Oh, Miss Mina?" Fenris's eyes lit up and he immediately asked, "As Mr. Isaiah's chief disciple, Miss Mina must be very strong, right?"

Mina shook her head. "No, the teacher's strength is too extraordinary. Even though I have been by his side since I was a child and have been quite diligent, I have only learned 30% of his skills so far."

Luo Qi immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. "How come it's only 30%?"

"There's no way around it, the teacher is just too powerful. I'm already the best among his students, having learned 30% of it," Mina said earnestly. "But please believe me, I can help. However, it would be best if it were under a clear night sky, so that I can unleash my full power."

Fenris nodded slightly; they were also aware of the Star Relic Sect's characteristics.

"Then let's discuss our next plan," Fenris said. "The campaign must continue. We have to take down the Forbidden Scholar. If he were to master that knowledge, it would be a disaster for all of us. But I don't know if Bishop Luo Qi is up to the task."

Luo Qi's eyes widened. "Damn it, how could I not..."

Before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly froze, and his originally angry pupils gradually became unfocused.

"Bishop Luo Qi?" Fenris immediately noticed Luo Qi's unusual behavior. "What's wrong?"

Luo Qi didn't speak, but slowly fell backward, then collapsed into the carriage with a "thud," as if he had lost consciousness.

Fenris was shocked. He had only meant to motivate Luo Qi, but he had accidentally provoked him to death.

Does that count as murder?

Fortunately, Rhine Father was waiting nearby, also noticed this scene and immediately rushed over.

"Don't worry, His Bishop is just tired."

"Yes, gentlemen, please return now."

The two Rhine Father expertly carried Luo Qi into the carriage and closed the door in one swift motion, so much so that by the time Fenris and Mina reacted, the door was already locked.

"What's going on?" Fenris scratched his head, puzzled. "Why do they seem completely unsurprised? Has Bishop Luo Qi always had this problem?"

Mina didn't speak, but stared thoughtfully at the carriage door.

If it's just a normal coma, it's nothing to worry about. After all, Rhine has always pursued a life of unrestrained indulgence, doing whatever they want without any restraint, so it's quite normal for their bodies to develop problems.

But coincidentally, Mina recently witnessed a similar situation in another person.

That was her teacher, Isaiah.

The reason the teacher fell into a coma was because of the call from Peach Blossom Paradise.

Mina narrowed her eyes slightly, lost in thought.

Could it be that Bishop Luo Qi is also the possessor of the body parts?

Within Peach Blossom Paradise, an angry roar resounded throughout the entire space.

"Tongue, I'll fuck your mother!"
