Chapter 398: Goal
In a sense, the arrival of Isabella and Saviara was a good thing for Rorschach.
The news they brought from afar, at least there was no need to worry about it, and the arrival of the two mages could also allow Rorschach to ease the tense lack of manpower.
"Ha, you're the fool who challenged the eighth-order archmage just after the fifth order?"
Saviara laughed out loud directly, not giving Rorschach face at all.
“........ Don't say that, I should say a very courageous ....."
My girlfriend gave a little face, well, a little.
“....... A brave man with a lot of courage, well, anyway, failure is success his mother, it's okay to fail a few more times, anyway, it's your apprentice who dies, not you, and the shame is also a fake identity. ”
Morton, who was trying to reduce his presence as a bystander, couldn't sit still, hey, hey, this rhythm is not right.
"Sit down, adults talk, little kids, shut up!"
As soon as Rorschach crossed his eyes, he suppressed him, and after teaching something in the past half a month, Rorschach seemed to have a little bit of prestige.
"Rorschach, you don't know the gap between the eighth order and the fifth order, the fifth order is indeed a strong party, but the eighth order is a ruthless character who goes to the outer regions and other worlds to be the pillars, and the combat power between the existence of this level can indeed look at the research results without looking at the rank, but that is because they can crush the lower level if they take something out casually. ”
Of course, Rorschach understands how fierce the high-level mage is, Rorschach has no chance to know, and Luo Li hasn't it yet.
Rorschach had long known from Luo Li, she had been studying magic under the tutelage of two archmages since she was a child, and the so-called magic genius had just accumulated enough, and her parents seemed to have been the most powerful spellcasters in the world.
In the long years of the Adventists, as the other end of the 24-hour chat phone, Rorschach has heard many Luo Li's nagging and lessons, and the most heard is probably "Don't be so reckless back then, obediently listen to my parents and parents will not fall in this field." ”
While feeling her sister's remorse, Rorschach also indirectly obtained her parents' spell knowledge and inheritance from her, otherwise the analysis of the artifact magic book The Book of Ten Thousand Laws (Ten Thousand Souls Treasure Book) would not have gone so smoothly.
How strong the high-level mage is, Rorschach still knows in his heart.
It's really an otherworldly version of being able to do whatever you want with money - with magic you can do whatever you want.
Unlike scholars on the technology side, who are able to transform research results into real threats through magical powers, mages must be limited to industrial processes and funding (mages also have limitations).
In contrast, it's like a scientist with no limits, the kind that can rub the atomic bomb and spread biochemical viruses, as well as the incredible universal energy of magic and divine power, and it is really impossible to estimate what tricks can be played.
Even if Erwin doesn't have any outrageous research results, the existence of the eighth order must be successful with results, and it is impossible to count on waste.
“....... Yes, I know, a normal duel, there is no comparison between me and an eighth-order mage, the gap between the two sides is even greater than that of the dragon and the baby, but it is not a normal duel, it is this kid and the apprentice on the opposite side, even if he is shameless, it is impossible for him to send a fifth-order mage, then, I have a chance of winning. ”
Rorschach looked back at Moulton, he was in the flower pot, his whole body was convulsing, there seemed to be some strips shuttling back and forth under his skin, his skin eyes were green, yellow and red, and the hair on his head had almost fallen out, and he was beginning to grow green leaves.
“....... This little brother is a little disgusting. ”
Saviara's words made Morton glare at her, and then he could only smile helplessly.
He knew that this was the truth, and it was only his choice to get to this point.
His current appearance is very far away from humans, Rorschach has no means of relieving pain, and his healing ability has been greatly discounted at this time, and Morton himself does not know how he survived.
"Hatred, that's a funny thing. Moulton, your apprenticeship period is over, and Heloise's full apprenticeship is over. ”
Suddenly hearing the words of his dreams, Morton did not react.
He was stunned, and the next moment, two lines of tears fell silently.
As Rorschach said, hatred is such a funny thing, and Morton knows that he is just a passerby, and it looks like 99% of the apprentices will fail........ No matter how good Morton's performance is, as long as an alien fifth-order mage is sensible, he will not make enemies for an outsider and an eighth-order archmage.
And Morton also knew that even if Rorschach, a fifth-order mage, was stupid enough to make enemies with the eighth-order Erwin, the probability of being crushed by the other party was more than ninety percent, and he still had no possibility of revenge.
Theoretically, the smoothest development for oneself is just to drag each other into the water and die together.
“...... I..... Bastard, Master......"
Morton felt that he was mean, selfish, and stupid, but ....... He had no other choice, no other possibility, and no way to watch his enemy live in front of him like this.
“........ I'm sorry....... Thank you....... I mean...... Corpses"
Reckless words don't make words, but Rorschach can understand the meaning.
The pain of losing a loved one, the hatred that is hard to forget, the despair of looking at the enemy in front of oneself, but can't, dare, and can't take revenge, makes people live like the walking dead, and it's better to just end it.
The fire of hatred in the chest cannot be extinguished by time, it will only burn deeper and more painful with time, and finally the whole head is filled with flames, and the whole person is dizzy from the fire of hatred, and he can't think at all.
Perhaps, Morton was able to survive this transformation that was enough to kill the living, because he was already a living dead.
The bones were burned to ashes by hatred, and the body was already a walking corpse with only instincts.
At this moment, Rorschach smiled.
He never felt that he was a good person, and he used more than sympathy for Moulton.
His true enemy is far more powerful than that eighth-order mage, so let's take it as a prelude and rehearsal for revenge.
Luo Li and the others still thought they hadn't found it? Hehe, how could it be, but there was no possibility of revenge before, but now, they can start thinking about it......
"Alright, boy, just use this hatred as the motivation to survive, the next transformation will be even harder. Damn, it would be nice if the lab was bigger, a lot of the modifications here can't be done. ”
As a bystander, Saviara was a little frightened, she saw such a terrible side of the teenager for the first time, and subconsciously hugged the quilt and shrank in the corner.
And Isabella on the side suddenly smiled, and there was pride and satisfaction in that smile out of nowhere.
"Rorschach, you still lack a lab, didn't you receive a gift from that adult?"
“....... And you know, oh, yes, you're from there, and it's really strange that you don't know. Not to mention, the key from 20 years ago has long been out of magic. ”
"You don't know how to charge. ”
Rorschach pursed his mouth, he also wanted to charge it, but he didn't have the money to play anything.
He just wanted to go back and explain to them, but he was stunned for a moment when he turned his head.
On Isabella's outstretched hands, two huge magic crystals were shining brightly, and the magic contained in them could blow up the neighborhood into the sky at will.
"How could that lord forget such a trivial matter, Archmage Rorschach, may you invite me to visit your new laboratory?"
