Who hid My Corpse!-Chapter 166 - Forty-two it turns out I was the one who killed it

Chapter 166: Forty-two, it turns out I was the one who killed it (4K5)_3 Chapter 166: Forty-two, it turns out I was the one who killed it (4K5)_3 After all, helping Gerard replace parts had also been a substantial amount of work for her, and for a ten-year-old, the burden was still too heavy.

Before long, Ju had also drifted off to sleep.

In the not-so-spacious warehouse, only the faint snoring of the old and the young remained.

Until Gerard slowly opened his eyes, a smile utterly different from his own temperament gradually appeared on his face.

It was naturally Bai Wei.

He lifted his left hand, looked at his middle finger, and then muttered, “This progress is really slow.”

Bai Wei had possessed Gerard’s body for over half a month now, and this was the first time he controlled the body without Gerard knowing.

You see, on the second day of possessing Ulu, Bai Wei had already been able to control two of Ulu’s fingers, and within a few days, he could control half of the body.

There were naturally many reasons for this, such as Gerard not relying on his power as much as Ulu did, even somewhat resisting.

And Gerard was much more vigilant than Ulu; Bai Wei didn’t want to rashly control Gerard’s body and then be noticed by him.

So he had been waiting for an opportunity.

And now, that opportunity had arrived.

He deliberately pushed it, making Gerard’s mind even more exhausted. The reason Bai Wei had only informed Gerard about the two Knights at the last moment was for this, scheming to weaken Gerard’s spirit so that he could go into a deeper sleep and allow Bai Wei to awaken while he slept.

Just like now.

Bai Wei slowly clenched his fists, carefully feeling this body.

Unlike with Ulu, Gerard had already used Bai Wei’s power several times now, so Bai Wei’s control over Gerard’s body had reached a rather deep level. If Bai Wei wanted, he could take this body outside for a walk now, though he would walk unsteadily, like a disabled person.

The reason he could do this so quickly was probably also because Gerard’s body was not as intact as Ulu’s.

And the reason Bai Wei wanted to control Gerard’s body tonight was definitely not to simply go out for a stroll, but because… he felt like he had gained something additional.

Actually, back when he was with Ulu, he had already felt it. When his fingers and eyes were in the same body, his soul seemed to have undergone some changes.

But at that time, Ulu’s body was already running out of oil and burning out, so he hadn’t had time to examine what the change was.

And when he moved to Gerard’s body, Gerard only had an eye replaced for a long time, and his fingers were not moved, so Bai Wei couldn’t inspect it.

Until last night, when Gerard finally got his fingers replaced, reuniting fingers and eyes in the same body.

And Bai Wei felt that new element deep within his soul again.

As Gerard fell into deep sleep and his body was taken over by him, eyes, fingers, and soul seemed to connect as one at that moment.

Bai Wei first saw the system panel, which he had almost forgotten, with text flashing briefly.

“Visas—Body completeness at five percent.”

Then, an image surfaced in his mind—a great being enveloped by Holy Light, standing mountain-like against a burning sky.

“He” was looking at Bai Wei.

And Bai Wei was also looking at “Him.”

Under this silent Gaze, the flames that scorched the skies spread over to “Him,” and “He” started to struggle, to howl, to stir the might capable of shaking the world.

Everything he did was to survive.

But,

It was to no avail; under this serene Gaze, he began to disintegrate, to destroy, to cease being allowed to exist.

Thus, “He” and the world burned together.

…

This scene magnified infinitely in Bai Wei’s eyes, then quickly receded.

The scene before him shifted from the burning world back to this dark warehouse.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

But Bai Wei knew, it was not an illusion.

Nor was it an image from a game; he remembered very clearly that there was no such scene in the game.

What could it be?

Bai Wei gently closed his eyes.

He seemed to already have the answer.

“Oh, so that’s how it is.”

He suddenly understood everything and murmured to himself.

“Lyra…”

“It was I who killed her.”
