Chapter 14: Father and Son on the Playing Field
This World of Warcraft offline was held in the central square of New York, and there were not many people coming, but it was organized by the players in a certain district. When Rorschach and Violet arrived, they saw a group of Warcraft players wearing various cosplay costumes partying.
The scene is quite lively, from middle-aged uncles in their forties and fifties to children who are not four or five years old.
Everyone seems to be dressed up as their own characters in the game.,At a glance, even the elf girls and the undead have it.,But the makeup is a little less meaningful.,It's a lot worse than the god-level cosplay I've seen in later generations.。
The show is also very simple, a few small stories prepared early are performed, and the rest is to eat and drink. Rorschach used Violet's account information to mix up a lunch and go shopping for a while, which can be regarded as fulfilling Violet's wish.
It's just that Violet said to Rorschach quite seriously: "Your Excellency, Commander, please raise the level of the fire source as soon as possible." ”
"What's the matter, talking about this all of a sudden?" Rorschach said curiously.
"In my memory, Tinder has the ability to create bionic bodies, so please make one for me when the time comes, and I want to participate in cosplay as my own identity!" Violet said very seriously.
Using this as an upgrade power, Rorschach didn't know how to complain. Why are the robots activated by the spark source energy all weird, what kind of weird setting is this?
Rorschach was speechless about it, but at the same time there was nothing he could do about it.
However, Violet said that the technique is quite useful when it comes to bionic bodies. At that time, Rorschach can build a large number of bionic robots, and he will be able to form an army by himself.
After all, it is still necessary to increase the level of the fire source as soon as possible.
It's a pity that a large amount of nuclear raw materials are needed to make the energy activator, and Rorschach can only rely on Stark Industries now, hoping to upgrade the Tinder Source to the second stage as soon as possible.
Rorschach found a relatively small seat and sat down, he was not a fan of Warcraft, and he seemed a little out of place in this venue.
And here, he happened to meet a man who was just as embarrassed as him.
The man looked in his thirties, just a little thin, and his face was pale and not so healthy. He seemed to be quite interested in Rorschach's Asian identity, and took the initiative to accost: "Friend, are you Chinese or Japanese?" ”
"Chinese, is there something wrong?" Rorschach asked.
"No, I just feel like we're all a little bit uncomfortable with the atmosphere. Are you also bringing children? The middle-aged man asked.
"I was just brought by a friend, and I don't look like someone else's father, do I?" Rorschach said with a smile.
"Then you must not get married and have children so early, this is the advice of people who have come over to you, don't believe it."
The man pointed towards the play area, and Rorschach saw a child about five or six years old, playing with other children with a large plastic sword. A group of bear children ran like crazy, and the noise made people's scalps tingle to hear.
Rorschach looked at it for a while and said with emotion: "Actually, I am luckier than many people to be with my family. My family is no longer around, so your troubles are actually happiness in my eyes. ”
"I'm sorry." The middle-aged man said embarrassedly.
"There's no need to apologize for that, by the way, I'm Rorschach, what about you?" Rorschach held out his hand to the man.
The middle-aged man shook Rorschach's hand vigorously and was about to introduce himself, when he heard a cheerful cry from a child.
"Daddy! Look at my Whirlwind Slash! ”
The child rushed over in circles with a plastic sword.
"Harry, be careful!" The man was afraid that his son would fall, so he let go of Rorschach's hand and ran over to pick up his son.
Seeing this scene, Rorschach also felt quite warm. But at this moment, Violet suddenly reported: "Your Excellency, Commander, someone has used electromagnetic interference equipment, and radio communication in the vicinity has been blocked. Violet explained.
Electromagnetic shielding? Rorschach suddenly had a bad premonition and looked around. The others didn't seem to notice this, and Rorschach was afraid it was coming for him. In order not to disturb the others, he quickly left the game venue and headed to the most inaccessible part of Central Park.
The middle-aged man who had just picked up his son and wanted to say hello to Rorschach found that Rorschach had disappeared.
"Dad, what are you looking at?" Harry Jr. asked in a milky voice.
"A very interesting young man."
"How interesting? Can you set fireballs? "Children always have unrealistic fantasies.
"He doesn't know how to fireball, but it's rare for Asians to have that kind of confidence. Harry, you should be a confident person when you grow up, you know? The middle-aged man said to his son.
"Knowing Dad, I'll use a whirlwind to slash! Defeat all enemies. Harry grunted and voiced himself.
Naturally, Rorschach didn't know all this, and he was trying to get out of the crowd.
However, Rorschach didn't go far, and a group of men in black suits came out from all corners and surrounded him.
"It's not because I accidentally stepped on the lawn." Rorschach said with a smile.
Soon, a tall figure came out of the crowd and came to Rorschach. His burly size and his big bald head were very recognizable, Obidia Stein, the CEO of Stark Industries, Tony's trusted elder.
"It was a surprise to me." Rorschach made no secret of his surprise.
I thought it would be someone from S.H.I.E.L.D. targeting me, but I didn't expect it to be Obidia Stan.
Shouldn't he be busy transferring Stark Industries' assets now, or stealing Tony's Ark reactor data, how could he be eyeing himself, an inconspicuous "little person"?
"I don't know if Mr. Rorschach has time, I want to invite you to a meal and discuss cooperation." Obidia Stan said to Rorschach.
"Cooperation? Am I already a technical advisor to Stark Industries? Rorschach said.
Obidia Stan put his hand into his arms, a gesture that made Rorschach's eyes stink. If Obidia Stan pulls out a gun, Rorschach doesn't hesitate to activate the Sensor Gauntlet and go on a killing spree.
Even if it would cause a lot of trouble, Rorschach never had the idea of putting life and death in the hands of others.
Obidia Stan did pull out a pistol, but Rorschach didn't do it directly, as he had a specially shaped pistol. The milky white shell, the dazzling blue pulse energy gauge, this is actually the pulse pistol made by Rorschach with the fire source energy.
