Chapter 56: Hesitation is the Root of Melancholy
It's been a week, and Rorschach is still silently digging the grave.
During this time, including Ada, Jill, and even the Red Queen, from time to time someone wanted to communicate with Rorschach, but they were blocked by the ghost wrestling people on the periphery.
And the hundreds of clones were asked by Rorschach to stop all actions and adapt to the new rules and life.
Rorschach didn't give any more orders, he just dug the grave on his own, day and night.
In Terraria, the 941 clones looked wordlessly at Rorschach in the distance, as if there was something more in their eyes.
When some of the clones brought shovels and pickaxes and prepared to bury their former selves, they were halted by Rorschach.
"Leave it ...... Let...... Let me ......."
Rorschach, who had not communicated with anyone for several days and had a deep grief in his heart, responded with a slight choked up to the clone's assistance.
A clone who regards Rorschach as a god, naturally he will not let go of Rorschach's orders and ignore them.
It's just that they also have their own actions, collecting their corpses from the B2 area on the other side of the portal, and then silently placing them here.
Rorschach's refusal to communicate left the brood and the Olympians stationed in the brood full of concern. Only the baby shark acts as a messenger, bringing supplies from time to time to replenish Rorschach's energy.
Kou and others, who had come to discuss the responsibilities and obligations of joining the World Parliament, also saw Rorschach buried alone.
Even Casper, who arrived with him, said with a smile at this moment: "No wonder the explanation document says that he is the so-called last line of defense, he is really an emotional person, but it is really reassuring......"
The projection of the red queen looked at Casper with some puzzlement, she didn't understand, no one had taught her these things.
"What do you mean? Sentimentality is a neutral word, but in document retrieval, it is used to accuse people of being too weak, which is not good......"
"Wow! It's really an electronic life! Look, Coco! ”
Casper was still screaming like a show, but Casho behind him grabbed Farme's shoulders, then pushed herself up with both feet, and kicked Farme out of the way.
After kicking Casper away, Kou said to him, "Don't mess around here, be careful that I forbid you to participate in the follow-up!" ”
After solving these problems, Kou Ko explained to the Red Queen: "Rorschach does not have a transcendent mentality, he is a real person, maintaining a perceptual cognition and humanity. This makes all his actions full of personal charm. At the same time, this mentality is the leader that the Space-Time Administration needs most. He is indeed the last line of defense, a line of defense that belongs to humanity itself. ”
The Red Queen looked at Rorschach, who was already exhausted in the distance, and her tone became low, and she said, "I, I don't understand. ”
Ada came to the side at this moment and said, "If you don't understand, let Rorschach explain, he blames himself for your actions." ”
The red queen looked a little like a child who was in trouble waiting for her parents to deal with it at the moment, she looked at Rorschach in the distance with a little fear, and said worriedly: "Did I do something wrong?" ”
"Rorschach will give you an answer......"
After finishing speaking, Ada turned to look at Kou Ko and the others, and said, "Now, everyone, please come with me, we still have a series of terms to negotiate, and as a member of the World Parliament, Miss Koukou, you still need to determine a specific date for your World Snake launch......
Rorschach's digging was slow, slow enough that he had to make sure that every pick he had with was in his heart.
On average, it takes an hour for Rorschach to dig a tomb two meters long, one meter wide, and one meter two deep, and then bury the body, bury it, and pray without a word.
It took Rorschach less than a tenth of the time to bury in seven days, but as time progressed, there were more people around him.
The clones began to refuse to carry out Rorschach's orders, and they reached out and began to bury the corpses that were ninety percent similar to their own.
Now Rorschach did not refuse their help, but buried one corpse after another in silence.
While waiting for all the bodies to be buried, and everyone was waiting for Rorschach's return, he opened a portal and walked in.
"Where's Rorschach?"
The crowd that was always paying attention to Rorschach began to be in turmoil, and if Rorschach was lost as the backbone, the Space-Time Authority would just be a joke.
For the first time, the Red Queen felt fear, a fear of abandonment. She was the first to come into contact with the truth of what Rorschach was talking about, the first to see the Authority's mission as ideal.
But now, it was as if Rorschach was making a wordless accusation against her.
At this moment, the baby shark left in the nest has become the hope of everyone, and as Rorschach's pet, the baby shark can always determine Rorschach's direction.
In the eyes of everyone's hope, the little shark nodded solemnly and swam out in one direction.
Arriving at the room where the brood was used to store the portal, the little shark spotted one and plunged into it.
Opposite was the beach of Terraria World, and Rorschach was sitting on his mountain of gold, looking out at the sea in the distance.
But what is different at this moment is that there is an extra ship in front of Rorschach.
A World War II antique, 205.3 meters long, 21.6 meters, 7.3 meters draft, 17,000 tons full load displacement, three triple 55 x 203 mm guns and six twin 127 mm (5 in) 38 x caliber secondary guns, Baltimore-class cruiser.
Seeing the visitor, Rorschach smiled at the crowd and calmed their nervous feelings.
"I'm fine, but I want to go out for a walk, I may have to leave for a few days, don't worry, when I come back, I will start the next part of the journey!"
Rorschach's words, in front of the nervous crowd, will undoubtedly make them think more.
The Red Queen stood up at this moment and said, "I'm sorry, Rorschach, I'm willing to accept the punishment. I will complete the transfer of all resources from the brood and Ambrera, and then go offline. ”
Looking at the red queen with his head down, Rorschach stretched out his hand and touched the non-existent body, and said, "Don't worry, I will come back, even if I know everything about this world, I am not the opponent of those monsters." It's just because I didn't take my own responsibility. ”
Without waiting for everyone to speak, Rorschach opened the portal, and the clones on the opposite side walked over.
The clones had already received orders from Rorschach and began to prepare for boarding.
"Don't worry, I'll be back. After the red, we need to find a time to talk......"
Hearing Rorschach's words, the red queen shrank her head and nodded.
"I'll just go for a walk, remember to strengthen communication with the world of Coco, the world snake will usher in great changes after it goes online, remember to make a plan and prepare for acceptance. We need more civilian staff and logistics, and before that we can start recruiting some of the staff. However, it is also necessary to pay attention to screening spies, and if necessary, violent means can be used.
One more thing, remember to clean up the plants on the red Acasian supercarrier at Olympus, and our engineers will reboot both transports. ”
Rorschach carefully arranged the follow-up work, which calmed everyone's hearts slightly.
Under everyone's gaze, the Baltimore-class cruiser slowly sailed into a huge portal, opposite the endless ocean.
