Chapter 011: Rorschach's Concerns
Interestingly, because of his stunned image that has not been deeply involved in the world, Rorschach didn't need many excuses at all, and he learned a lot of information from Su Xueqi very smoothly.
Most of them are about Rock City, and a very few are related to the 'Mountain Capital', but not much, because Su Xueqi has only been to it once or twice before.
This time, the destination of their caravan was the Mountain Capital, one of the four capitals of the Storm Empire!
The three major empires of the Grey Realm have their own characteristics in terms of political structure, and the characteristic of the Storm Empire is that the Dorags, as a royal family, cannot be decided in a word most of the time.
Because the establishment of the Storm Empire is inseparable from the strong support of the four initial blood families, and now the four capitals that defend the Storm Imperial Capital are controlled by the four initial blood families at the beginning, and a certain degree of balance has been reached with the Storm Royal Family.
This is a situation that the Red Flame Empire and the Titan Empire do not have, so even if the Storm Empire has the strongest comprehensive strength, it will be difficult to continue to expand externally.
The Rock City, where the Burton family is located, is in the sphere of influence of the mountain capital, and it is the closest, so it is naturally indispensable for trade.
Rex also had a history of the Storm Empire with Rorschach before, so Rorschach was no stranger to the origin of these four capitals.
Even, he suspected that Su Xueqi didn't know as much as he did in this regard.
Rex used to be a member of the Storm Royal Family, and he was also a big man in the true sense of the Storm Empire, how could he know about those things that a small family like the Burton family, entrenched in a small border town, could know?
However, for intelligence, the current Rorschach is naturally not refused, whether it is valuable or not, one more perspective will always have more advantages than disadvantages.
"So, Rorschach, are you and Arthur's predecessors also preparing to go to the mountain capital?" Su Xueqi saw that Rorschach was obviously more curious about the mountain capital, and immediately asked.
"Yes, Teacher, he has already found his own path, and he doesn't need to blindly cultivate anymore, this time he plans to take me to the mountain capital to live temporarily for a while." Rorschach replied half-truthfully.
"I heard that the strength of ascetic knights is generally far superior to that of their peers, but I didn't expect Arthur's predecessors to find their own way...... I really envy you. Su Xueqi showed a look of yearning.
Rorschach could see that this time Su Xueqi might not be acting, but really envious of herself.
Actually, this is normal.
If the situation is really as Rorschach said, then it is very likely that he will soon become a disciple of the Silver Knight!
If the Bronze Knight can only be used in a small place like Rock City, then the Silver Knight can be regarded as the number one person even in the mountain capital.
Not to mention going sideways, no matter which side you turn to, you will be treated as a guest of honor and treated with courtesy.
Looking at the gray domain, the silver knight can definitely be called a strong man.
Although Su Xueqi has a great background, her real background is far from being comparable to the Burton family she was born in this world, but even if she is in the background of the Water Blue Star, she will definitely not despise a silver knight!
Therefore, she was really a little envious of Rorschach's 'stunned youth' experience, which is why she had the previous words.
"This Su Xueqi is obviously also a newcomer, and she should be replaced once or twice more than me, but there is a confidence between the words, it seems that it is not simple......" Rorschach secretly analyzed.
The Trash Talk Pupil had hinted when observing Su Xueqi that she had a background, and Rorschach originally thought that this background referred to her background in the Gray Domain.
But after learning about the Burton family, he gradually realized that this was not the case.
Especially Su Xueqi's inadvertently showed confidence, which made Rorschach further confirm that her identity on the water blue star may not be simple.
Only in this way can we explain why she has a sense of confidence invisibly.
Otherwise, even if the ordinary newcomer is lucky enough to survive the first replacement with the highest mortality rate, it is inevitable that they will be a little at a loss about the future, which is the reaction that most people should have to the unknown, not like her.
"She must know more about the displacement than I do, but unfortunately she can't ask directly." Rorschach thought with some headaches.
After leaving Dusk Village, the biggest trouble in his heart was actually no longer revealing his identity, but the topper man who accidentally enlightened him.
Judging from the top hat man's previous reaction to a passer-by like him, this guy is definitely not a good man and a woman, and he is not the kind of stubble that kills people like hemp.
A ruthless character like this, will suddenly discover his conscience because he has also become a replacement, and his kindness without asking for anything in return will be his guide?
Think about it and know it's impossible.
The presence of the man in the top hat is like an unavoidable landmine to Rorschach, not knowing when and how it will explode.
He had been thinking about it since he left the village.
It's just that I really didn't think of a good way to break the game.
Unexpectedly, at this juncture, he met Su Xueqi, a rookie companion with an obvious background, which gave him some general ideas in his heart.
Of course, it was impossible for him to directly identify himself to Su Xueqi, because he didn't know whether Su Xueqi was trustworthy or not.
Although knowing each other's identity as a replacement person is also a terrifying balance, because each can 'report' this identity to the people around the other, thus achieving the consequences of mutual destruction.
But what if Su Xueqi is the kind of madman who is not afraid of death?
Although the odds are not high, before finding out Su Xueqi's situation, Rorschach doesn't want to make a bet so easily.
Moreover, he couldn't explain how he saw that Su Xueqi was a replacement, because so far Su Xueqi actually didn't have any flaws.
If Rorschach was really just an ordinary replacement, he really couldn't see anything wrong with Su Xueqi.
Even if he really wants to find a way to break the situation from Su Xueqi, he has to wait for a plausible reason.
Thinking of this, he changed his mind for a moment, and said to Su Xueqi with a smile: "I will settle in the mountain capital for a period of time after the teacher, Stephanie, if you have time, you might as well come to visit occasionally, didn't Brother Krauser say that your talent is also very high, maybe the teacher will also accept you to get started?" ”
"This ...... Wouldn't that be bad? Su Xueqi showed an embarrassed look.
But she was actually a little moved by what Rorschach said!
If she can become a disciple of a Silver Knight, it will undoubtedly be a great opportunity for her!
Not only will the Burton family support her, and even increase the inclination of resources towards her, but even the real forces behind her will not be indifferent!
Although she has an extraordinary background, she is not a core member of the forces behind her, if she doesn't finally succeed in enlightening the spirit, it is estimated that it will not be long before she will break away from the inner circle of the forces behind her and be assigned to the peripheral forces.
Even now that she has successfully enlightened, she has started much late, and it is not easy to catch up with those real core members.
But if she could become a disciple of a Silver Knight, the situation would be completely different!
The internal sequence of the forces behind her will definitely rise to the top and gain more authority and support!
How could she not be impressed!
