Chapter 126: Thirteen Blood Prisons, the City of Wild Sands
After learning more about the situation in the [Blood Prison Academy], Rorschach finally decided to listen to Murphy's suggestion and let little David go there to study.
To Rorschach's surprise, he thought that little David would be a little resistant to this kind of thing, but little David actually showed some expectations after hearing that Rorschach was going to send him to school for a while.
After an initial pause, Rorschach quickly figured out what was going on.
As a child who grew up in an orphanage, what little David longs for most is to have a normal life like other children, and for children like him, the so-called normal life is to have parents to rely on, plus to be able to go to school as normally as other children.
It's a pity that little David didn't have either of them.
It wasn't until he met Rorschach later that he reached the first point, and now when Rorschach said that he would send him to school for a while, he naturally reached the second point, and of course he had some expectations for this.
However, Rorschach has three chapters of the law with him.
The first is to listen to Murphy in the academy and not be naughty.
The second is not to expose the 'Great White' easily, and even if you need to use the Shadowy Trick, try to only use the part of the Shadow Crow.
The third is not to expose the strength of his tricksters, which is manifested in the fact that he must not easily fight with others, nor should he be involved in tricks.
As long as little David can do the three things that Rorschach demands, there won't be much of a problem.
Of course, if there is an emergency, little David himself can also contact Rorschach at any time through the master-slave brand between the two.
"Then for the rest of the time, this little guy will ask you." Rorschach said to Murphy.
"It's all my own brothers, what's polite, come and come, keep drinking, don't say these hypocritical words." Garon replied directly for Murphy.
The wine glass in his hand has already touched a circle of glasses with a few people, and he is not happy to drink!
……
The days of joy are always short-lived.
When the Great Wizard of the Shadow had self-exiled for thousands of years, and the events of the Urco family had come to an end, Rorschach and the others were busy.
Garon officially joined the [Sin Legion] and became a member of the 'Original Sin Brigade', which ranked first among the ten brigades, which made him excited!
Because the Original Sin Brigade has always been the strongest force of the [Sin Legion], its captain's strength is even stronger than the deputy legion leader, and only the Legion Leader of the entire [Sin Legion] can stabilize the original sin captain.
Garon has never wanted to live in the shadow of his parents, but his parents are ridiculously strong, which also causes his mentality to be easily unbalanced.
Joining the Original Sin Brigade this time is also a good result for him.
Murphy also successfully joined the [Blood Hell Academy] as a teaching assistant, and if he wants to officially become a mentor, he must at least get the three-ring morning star to have a chance.
However, whether it is Murphy or Garon, they are all top geniuses in the eighth blood prison, and with the strong accumulation brought by the previous eighth blood pool, at least there will be no more obstacles before Yueyao.
It is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the third ring.
*********
"Alice, why don't we wait, maybe the teacher is just delayed by something, so he didn't come back?" The young man who looks very elegant and noble is persuading the girl next to him.
The elegant young man's name is Kurlo, he is from Pompeii, he is a mid-level wizard apprentice, and he can be regarded as a genius-level wizard apprentice in Pompeii.
Because he was only one hundred and thirty years old now, this was undoubtedly a very young figure among mid-level wizard apprentices, and if there were no accidents, high-level wizard apprentices were almost a sure thing for him.
As for Alice, the girl next to him, she is a beginner wizard apprentice and her junior sister.
But Alice has another identity, that is, the daughter of his teacher, and his teacher, Wizard Connor, is a wizard of the Morning Star!
Pompeii, the third largest city in the Wild Sands, has a total of two Morning Stars in the First Ring, and his teacher, Wizard Connor, is one of them!
As for where the two of them were at this time, it was outside the city of Wild Sands, and the reason they came here was to secretly find out about Wizard Connor.
More than two months ago, Wizard Connor was invited by an old friend to visit the City of Wild Sands.
Usually like this, Wizard Connor usually stays for a few days before returning to Pompeii, the longest time is no more than half a month, and if he wants to go back late, he will also notify his family with a one-time summons of witchcraft.
This time, however, Wizard Connor hadn't been back to Pompeii for over two months, and no news had been sent back in the process.
This is undoubtedly a bit strange.
Alice vaguely felt that something was wrong, so she pulled Kuro and planned to infiltrate the city of wild sand to find out the news.
If something really happens to my father, I can do something to deal with it.
However, Kuro was obviously a little worried about this, because if something really happened to Wizard Connor, then it would mean that there were enemies of Wizard Connor in the city of Wild Sands, or some other dangerous situation.
They are two wizard apprentices, what's the use of going?
However, it is difficult for Alice to refuse when he asks him, so as not to leave a bad impression on Alice, after all, Alice is the daughter of the Morning Star.
Although Wizard Connor is most likely experiencing some unexpected situations now, Coolo still doesn't think that a Morning Star wizard will have an accident so easily, in case he rejects Alice now, and when Wizard Connor returns to Pompeii afterwards and knows about it, how will he deal with himself at that time?
So, even if he was reluctant in his heart, he still followed Alice here.
Alice heard Kuro's persuasion, but shook her head very resolutely and said, "Father, even if he really can't go back for the time being, it is impossible not to have any news, Senior Brother Kurlo, if you don't want to go, you can go back to Pompeii first, it's a big deal that I will go alone." ”
"How can that be, what do you think of me!" When Kuro heard this, he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.
"I know that Senior Brother Kulo is the best!" Alice smiled when she heard this.
"Ahem, ahem!"
An untimely cough suddenly sounded, and then they heard someone behind them ask, "Excuse me, excuse me, is the City of Wild Sand over here?" ”
Hearing this, the two immediately turned around nervously, only to see a huge mount that looked like a rhinoceros behind them, and they had come close at some point, and there were two men on the back of the huge rhinoceros.
One of them had a scruffy beard, looked a little decadent, and had an unlovable face.
The other looks more relatable, with long silver-white hair on her shoulders, giving a very gentle feeling.
It was this person who had just been questioned.
After seeing the silver-haired young man, Alice was stunned for a moment, and then whispered a little nervously, "Yes, yes." ”
This scene almost didn't hurt Kulo's nose.
Because he knew very well that Alice's appearance at this time was clearly a manifestation of his heartbeat, and Alice was also like this when she first saw him.
He didn't expect that he would take such a big risk to accompany Alice to the city of wild sand, and Alice would actually be moved by other men in front of him?
How could he not be annoyed!
If it weren't for Alice's identity, he would have wanted to turn around and leave now, without this bird's anger!
But this thought is also in his mind, and he is still reluctant to be Alice, or the identity of Alice's daughter of the morning star.
It's just that in this way, he looks at the silver-haired young man opposite more and more unpleasantly.
Although this is none of the other party's business at all, and the other party is just asking for directions, who made Alice fall in love with him.
Kuro didn't have the courage to be angry with Alice, so he could only find a way to find it back on the silver-haired young man, so he only heard him say coldly:
"Don't you know how to come down and ask someone for directions, don't you feel very rude when you're so condescending?"
When Alice heard that Ku Luo was so unkind, she hurriedly said, "Senior brother, don't say that, it's not that serious." ”
Hearing Alice say this, Kuro's heart suddenly became more and more furious, but what he didn't expect was that the silver-haired man didn't seem to mind at all, and took the initiative to jump off the mount beast and smiled at the two:
"I'm sorry, I'm a little too tired after a long journey, so I don't care about those details, if you don't mind......"
"No, no, we don't mind!" Alice hurriedly said, "Speaking of which, we're going to go to the Sand City now, this gentleman ......"
Rorschach ...... That's my cousin Pierre. The silver-haired young man smiled and pointed to the bearded man who was still in a loveless state on the rhinoceros beast and said, "His fiancée ran away with someone, and I accompanied him to the city of wild sands to find his fiancée, so he looks so loveless." ”
Pierre, who was dumb, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard Rorschach arrange himself like this, and turned his head directly to stop looking at this side.
As he just wanted to carry out the salted fish to the end, but because Rorschach had to take on that kind of high-yield meritorious task, he was dragged over by Rorschach, and it was no wonder that he could be happy.
Although he has already told Rorschach three times, as a guide, he is not obliged to help Rorschach complete other tasks, even if he comes along, at most it is to give Rorschach a cameo encyclopedia.
It's impossible to let him help, not in this life.
However, this did not affect Rorschach's acceptance of the mission, and they came to the Thirteenth Blood Prison this time to complete the meritorious mission of the [Prison Court].
It is true that [Prison Court] is the master of the Blood Hell Island, but at the same time, it is also the master of the entire Blood Hell World Group!
Regarding this point, just by looking at the fact that the eighteen prison masters are all people of the [Prison Court], it can also be seen that the [Prison Court] has absolute control over the Eighteen Blood Prisons!
Therefore, the Prison Master Mansion of the Eighteen Blood Prisons can basically be regarded as the peripheral organization of the [Prison Court], and the core members of these Prison Master Mansions are barely considered peripheral members of the [Prison Court].
Of course, they must still be half a head lower than the trainee jailer.
However, the reason why the [Prison Court] firmly controls the Eighteen Blood Prisons is not because of a simple land grab, but because it is related to the duties of the [Prison Court], and when there are some special situations in the Eighteen Blood Prisons, the [Prison Court] is also responsible for dealing with them, just like the current city of wild sand.
The Thirteenth Blood Prison's Prison Master's Mansion also sent someone to investigate after noticing the strangeness of the Wild Sand City, but as a result, he directly lost contact.
In this case, the Thirteenth Blood Prison's Prison Master's Mansion is not necessarily incapable of dealing with it, but since the [Prison Court] has a mechanism for probationary jailers, it is to deal with this special situation.
Otherwise, the eighteen blood prisons are so big, and there may be all kinds of special situations every day, do they all expect the eighteen prison masters to wipe their butts?
This is naturally unrealistic.
Therefore, in the end, the special situation of the city of wild sand became a meritorious task for the [Prison Court] to be taken by the probationary jailers themselves.
Rorschach also looked through the list of meritorious tasks, and saw this task in the first row, so he took it directly.
Although there is a hint at the end of the mission, more than one of the Second Ring Morning Stars has already lost contact with this incident, and it does not affect Rorschach from taking this mission.
Pierre is naturally a hundred unwilling to do this, but there is no way, he is now a partner with Rorschach.
If he doesn't follow, it means that his guide mission this time will be directly failed, although it is equivalent to losing 10 merit, but then it will break his undefeated golden body 997 times.
As a person with OCD, he refuses to accept this imperfection.
After coming to the thirteenth Blood Prison, for the sake of safety, they did not directly use the Space Witch Array to teleport to the Wild Sand City, but chose to travel a long distance to rush over.
At Dumb's current speed, it only took less than a day to carry them to this neighborhood, and they happened to meet Alice and the others.
After hearing about Pierre's 'tragic experience', Alice looked at him with a little more pity, and then looked at Rorschach again:
"Mr. Rorschach, if you are also going to the City of Sands, you can come with us, and we will go there next......"
Speaking of which, Alice also briefly introduced herself, including Kulo beside her, of course.
However, there is no mention that she is going to find out about her father.
But she would never have imagined that the reason why Rorschach took the initiative to stop and ask them was because she already knew that they would go to the city of wild sands.
No, not only did they know that they were going, but they also knew that the wizard Connor they were looking for was probably also involved in the special situation of the Wild Sand City, so there was no news for more than two months.
In addition, what makes Rorschach most interesting is the relationship between this pair of brothers and sisters: "The young Tianjiao, the apprentice Morning Star, is also dependent on the teacher's daughter, tsk...... This is a proper pseudo-protagonist template. ”
Thinking of this, Rorschach couldn't help but feel a hint of sympathy when he looked at Curlow.
Because there is usually such a template, there is basically no good end.
Coincidentally, Curlo also noticed the sympathetic gaze that Rorschach threw at him, and thought that Rorschach was deliberately provoking him with this kind of look because he was favored by Alice.
This made him feel hostile to Rorschach in his heart!
If Alice hadn't been there, he would have done it directly!
As for Rorschach's strength...... He didn't feel the slightest breath of spiritual power in Rorschach, and there were only two possibilities like this.
Either Rorschach is not a wizard apprentice, just a blood knight and the like, or Rorschach is an official wizard who can make him not feel the presence of witches.
Of these two possibilities, he did not hesitate to identify the former.
Because in Rorschach's body, he didn't feel the majesty that a formal wizard should have, and he didn't want to believe that it was possible.
Rorschach was not interested in guessing what Kuro was thinking, and after agreeing to Alice, he sat back on Dumb's back and let Dumb follow Alice and the two of them.
"You're not bored, you have to pretend to be tender in front of two imps." When Rorschach returned, Pierre couldn't help but pout.
"What do you mean by pretending to be tender, I'm not as old as them." Rorschach laughed.
"No, how old are you?" Pierre was stunned.
He really hadn't paid attention to Rorschach's age, but in his opinion, since Rorschach had become the morning star, even if he was younger, he would have to start at a few hundred years old, right?
"Let me think about it...... It should be thirty in two years, alas, it's really unforgiving. Rorschach shook his head and sighed.
“……”
Pierre suddenly had the feeling that he didn't want to communicate with Rorschach.
You must know that he is already a three-ring morning star, even among the one-ring morning stars, he is considered young, only more than three thousand years old.
One thousand years of it were spent in the life of a guide.
He thought he was exaggerating enough, but Rorschach didn't even have a fraction of his age!
Don't you hit people like this, Soul Light!
Pierre, who felt that he had been insulted, didn't want to talk to Rorschach on the next road, and the whole person was lying on Dumb's back, as if recalling his 'failure' life.
A few hours later.
A group of four people finally came to the city of wild sand.
In order not to attract attention, all four jumped off their mounts, and just like that, they began to line up to enter the city with the flow of people entering and leaving the city.
I have to say that judging from the situation at the city gate alone, everything is normal in the city of wild sand.
It was not significantly different from any city that Rorschach had visited before in the Eighth Blood Prison, at most it was not quite the same in scale.
In a few moments, they were well in the city.
"Mr. Rorschach, have you figured out where you want to stay, if you haven't been to the City of Wild Sands, I know a very good hotel, and the price is very good." After entering the city, Alice took the initiative to ask Rorschach.
"Is that so...... Then let's be together, and we can be companions. Rorschach laughed.
"Okay." Seeing that Rorschach agreed, Alice looked very happy, and said in a cheerful tone, "It's over there, not far away." ”
As she spoke, she had begun to lead the way in front.
All this fell in the eyes of her senior brother Kulo, and naturally they were even more unhappy with Rorschach, and they couldn't wait to kill Rorschach's little white face directly with their eyes!
But Rorschach didn't have time to care what he thought, but walked slowly to Pierre's side, and asked in a voice that only two people could hear:
"Do you notice anything unusual?"
"Not yet." Pierre's expression was the same, but he was constantly observing everything around him in his own unique way of scouting.
But as he said, nothing was found.
However, Rorschach had already sensed that something was wrong with the city when he entered the city!
