According to reason, shouldn’t Rocky be here cursing loudly right now?
Why haven’t we heard his voice?
Fig looked at Rocky, and the latter was sitting quietly, eerily obedient, which made Fig even more puzzled.
Since Lango mentioned Ulu, Rocky has remained silent.
Before he could inquire, Lango spoke again: "But there’s also good news. That Player is severely injured; theoretically, it’s impossible for him to survive. If he wants to live, he has to keep using the power of the Seven Notes, but by doing so, his Seven Notes can no longer do much, and moreover, the Holy Sound has already targeted him."
Fig looked at Lango again: "Does the Holy Sound still have the power to pursue?"
"Some parts of the homeland were not completely affected." Lango said, "They’ve also withdrawn their personnel from the Oath Land."
The South Bishop said, "If I remember correctly, that’s not allowed, right?"
"It indeed isn’t allowed." Fig nodded and said, "This is the Divine Contract. Under no circumstances can the garrison of the Contract Land be withdrawn. This is something all Eight Great Churches... even the Four Great Secret Religions must adhere to. In theory, as long as it’s not the deity who has a problem, it cannot be violated, but..."
The deity precisely had a problem.
"Two months ago, Lyra already withdrew from the Oath Land." Lango said, "And now, the Holy Sound did the same. Those from the Oath Land are displeased, but there’s nothing they can do; the Holy Sound only wants to capture that Seven-Tone Player."
"Is it also for the Corpse Blocks?"
"No." Lango shook his head, "It’s for the notes. I’ve said before, it’s already the last one, the most complete golden Seven Notes on that Player. They regard it as a Fire Spark and will do anything for it."
"So, they don’t know about Ulu’s matter?"
"No, they don’t know." Lango nodded slightly, "Thus, this is also our opportunity. The two families of Taichu have promised that if we help them reclaim the Seven Notes, they’ll gift us that piece of the Corpse Fragment."
"They have quite a plan." The South Bishop said, "Even things they’ve already lost can be taken out to trade."
"They can’t offer anything more." Fig said, "And we can also use their tracking to find Ulu and retrieve the four pieces of the Corpse Blocks together."
At this moment, Rocky suddenly spoke: "If that’s the case, I am willing to lead the team!"
Rocky’s words were filled with excitement and anger, as if he couldn’t wait to kill Ulu quickly, making Fig glance at him once more.
"No." Lango rejected Rocky’s proposal, "He has too many Corpse Blocks on him, and there are too many uncontrollable factors when facing him directly. So continue using the Devourer, have the people of Holy Sound provide the location, and we’ll use the Devourer to follow up."
"Using the Devourer to follow up..." West Bishop Herry seemed worried, "Will it harm the people of Holy Sound... Sorry, I have no more questions."
"If it really comes to that, it’s their own problem." Fig said, "However, if the Devourer accidentally follows into a densely populated town, the scene won’t look good, and it might affect our own cities."
"No problem." Lango said calmly, "According to the reports from the Holy Sound people, the Seven-Tone Player is currently in the Boundary Land, and his next target seems to be... Wildfire."
"Wildfire?" The North Bishop squinted slightly, "Then there’s no issue. If it’s in the territory controlled by the Esoteric Buddhism, anything can happen and still be normal."
Seeing the plan set in motion, yet having done nothing himself, Rocky inevitably felt anxious but had no other means.
For the Devourer is the only creature in this world that can ignore the power of the Visas Corpse Pieces.
The reason Rhein could possess so many Corpse Blocks is that they have the power to control the Devourer; they’ve used the Devourer to hunt Corpse Fragment Holders countless times over the millennia without a single failure.
This time will be no exception either.
"Since the decision has been made, let’s not delay any longer." Lango looked at Fig, "Fig, your area is the closest, so the Devourer will be handed over to you to control. Remember, I must see those four Corpse Blocks. As for the rest, I’m not concerned."
Seeing Lango’s resolution, the four bishops immediately placed their hands on their chests in salute, and Fig also promised, "I won’t let you down, Your Eminence."
Lango nodded as he said, "It has been confirmed, the piece of Corpse Block lost by the Holy Sound was an ear, and its rule is."
A very special place.
Because it doesn’t belong to any Church, it’s also known as the God-forsaken land.
Only very few people know its origin — the dividing line between the Orthodox and Esoteric Buddhism.
To one side, it borders the two major orthodox Churches, Holy Sound and Rhein, while to the other side lies the Wildfire Secret Sect.
Such a unique geographical location naturally determines its disorderliness, with many heretics wanted by the Orthodox, and leaders of the Esoteric Buddhism trading and living here.
The vast majority of outsiders don’t survive more than three days here.
And now, in the eyes of the tavern owner Tim, there’s such an outsider.
He was wearing a robe that didn’t match his physique, seemingly wanting to wrap his entire self up, looking somewhat mysterious.
