Villain Lord: Both The Player And The Protagonist Want To Kill Me

"Phew——, it's finally done."

This time it was really thrilling, and Xiwei didn't expect to settle the account himself and two time bombs came out, and they were right under his nose.

He forced himself up, held the giant sword in his hand, and took a deep breath. A sense of weakness and soreness spread throughout his body.

This is a side effect of the will to die. This skill, which can only be activated when seriously injured, will fall into a long-term state of weakness after the duration expires.

After all, it’s called a will to die. Anyway, it’s either you who die or I live.

"Oops! Clemont is still buried!"

Xiwei slapped his head and called to the cavalry who had gathered to quickly pull Clemont out of the ruins.

………

Clemont was lying on the stretcher, his face was pale, and his knight's helmet had flown to nowhere, revealing his gray hair and still stubborn and bright eyes.

"Master, I'm fine with you. It's my helmet and my sword..."

The old knight muttered, and even though he grinned in pain, he still asked Xi Wei to help him find the helmet and sword.

Xi Wei looked at Clemont speechlessly as he was being carried away by the cavalry, thinking that he was almost dead and still thinking about his helmet and sword?

"Who, yes, Goodbye, go ask a priest to apply healing spells to Clemon."

"...Master, there is no longer a priest in Winter City..."

Gudebai pointed at the dozen headless corpses wearing white robes outside the ruins and said somewhat innocently:

"You said no one would be left alive, so we chopped up all the priests."

Xiwei was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. He impulsively ordered the knights to kill all the priests in the church. Now, who will heal their injuries?

Xiwei wiped his face with a headache and said in a low voice.

"Okay, then go to my study and get a bottle of water of life for Clemont."

"Everyone else listened to the order and searched the ruins of the church. If there is anything valuable, bring it to me. If you find any situation that you are unsure about, report it to me."

"Winter Castle is still short of people! Alas—"

Xi Wei sighed.

He vowed that he would go to other territories to grab some priests in the future. He usually did nothing but acted as a wet nurse for him when needed!

…

After holding the sword and resting for a while, Xiwei felt that her body felt much better.

There was nothing else to do, so he simply squatted in front of the pile of debris collected by the knights and rummaged through them one by one to see if there was anything good.

"Balda statue, oil painting, gospel book, cup? What kind of rags are they...emmm, why is there a pair of silk stockings here? What idiot brought them here?"

"No, what I should be more concerned about is, could it be that Marton and Carter have some strange habits?"

Xi Wei touched his chin thoughtfully, guessing which one of Marton and Carter was on top and which one was on the bottom.

"Oh my God, this is it!"

"Gods above..."

Suddenly, Xiwei heard the noise of knights coming from the corner of the ruins.

"What's going on over there?"

"Lord, we found the basement over there."

A knight trotted up to Xiwei.

basement? Xi Wei looked puzzled. What's so surprising about the basement?

“Isn’t it unreasonable for a church to have a basement?”

"this……"

The knight looked hesitant and said hesitantly:

"The situation there is a bit complicated. Lord, I think you should go and see for yourself."

Under the guidance of the knight, Xiwei came to the door of the basement. Two or three knights were holding on to the wall at the door, vomiting.

What did they see?

Xiwei looked solemn and pushed open the basement door.

As soon as the door opened, Xiwei felt numbness in his brows, and the rich smell of blood entered his nose like old wine with a rotten stench.

The knight following behind him retched, immediately covered his mouth and nose, picked up an oil lamp, and walked in front of Xi Wei.

Walking down the mottled stone stairs into the dark basement, the sound of knight's boots on the stone slabs echoed between the walls.

The deeper you go, the stronger the smell of blood becomes, even to the point of being a bit choking.

Soon, the two walked down the last stone step, but the knight leading the way in front of Xiwei suddenly stopped.

"Clang."

The oil lamp fell to the ground and rolled around a few times. The knight in front trembled all over, collapsed and fell to his knees, covering his face and letting out a painful cry.

By the light of the oil lamp, Xiwei seemed to see hell on earth.

A basement of less than ten square meters was filled with dense piles of demi-human corpses. At a glance, there were at least twenty or thirty corpses, and they were all young demi-human girls.

They were naked and died miserably.

Everyone's face was pale, their bodies were bloodless, their eyes protruded from their sockets, and their expressions were ferocious, as if they were suffering great pain and fear before they died.

Some of these corpses were still fresh, but half of them had begun to rot. In the faint light, Xiwei could see the maggots wriggling on them.

In the middle of the basement was a round table with a cylindrical container filled with blood, as tall as a person.

Next to the container is a letter that has just been written and has not yet been sealed.

[His Majesty the Pope:

Praise to Barda and greetings from Malton.

The blood for this holy blood ceremony has been prepared and will be sent to the royal capital before June.

There are still many blood bags in the Eagle Collar, but they are all hidden deep and there is no way to find them out in a short time. I sincerely ask for your help. In addition, if you can, I implore you to transfer Carter, because he is not a good partner. He is willful, reckless and stupid, and his temper is as bad as a stone in the toilet...

I sincerely hope that the Holy See’s plan can go smoothly. I praise the Holy See of Barda and praise our great Lord.

Bishop of Winter City Marton]

…

With a sullen face, Xiwei set fire to the basement filled with sin and pain, and brought the trance-ridden knight outside.

He still underestimated the madness of the Holy See.

From the letters and the situation in the basement, it can be basically inferred that the birth of the Templars came from the mysterious holy blood ritual, and the blood of the demihuman girl was also a necessary medium for this ritual.

They were even called blood bags by the Holy See.

This reminded Xiwei of his past life. Why did Lord Rui want to plunder demi-human girls in the first place? Was it really just because of his sexual addiction?

Was it his intention to implement the demihuman slavery convention alone, or was there someone else behind it?

Is the reason why the Cologne Empire wants to attack the Demihuman Principality really just because of the sudden outbreak of the God War?

There is also something fishy about Barda attacking the wilderness goddess Malorne without any reason.

Xiwei frowned, always feeling that there was a pair of black hands controlling everything behind the scenes.

"Forget it, I don't want to anymore."

Xiwei shook his head tiredly and settled for what he had come. He hadn't even figured out the problems with himself and the players yet, so how could he have the time to pay attention to the ruins of the Cologne Empire and the Demihuman Principality.

Anyway, with the help of system rewards, he will definitely become stronger and stronger. When the time comes, if there is anything in front of him, he can just use his strength to break it.
