Chapter 530: The Black Goat's Gift (Part II)
late at night
Rorschach didn't know where he was going...... After sending Ricky away yesterday, she was taken to another party today.
It looks like a basement-like cell, and even the alchemist's headquarters is transported through a secret passage underground!
Instinct told Rorschach that it didn't bode well for detaining prisoners in this way.
"Let go of me, let go! I am the national alchemist of Lewis City, a disciple of Master Coddle, you have caught the wrong person, let me see Master Cdole...... Let me see Field Marshal Hogheim. â
"What a noise!"
A soldier in charge of escorting him kicked Rorschach in the ass.
"It's the Alchemist Headquarters who told us to take you away, go in peace, don't disturb the citizens to sleep at night!" the soldier said disdainfully.
"Alchemist headquarters? no way, I'm just guilty of dereliction of duty, and there's no reason to be detained in another place...... You are abusing your power. â
It was a big night, and a few soldiers had been impatient listening to Charlotte's nagging all the way, if it weren't for someone above asking them not to talk as much as possible, otherwise they would really want to knock this stupid boy on the head.
"Say whatever you like, let's go!"
"I'm not leaving. â
Rorschach was not without room for resistance, because the gloves with the alchemy array carved by himself in the alchemist's headquarters had been taken away, and he thought that he would only interrogate at most, but after turning himself around several places in a row in the past two days, he began to feel that something was wrong.
"Not leaving?" the soldiers around him looked at each other and smiled, kicking directly behind them......
Rorschach fell to the ground, trapped and unable to stand up with his hands intact.
A cold sensation came from his face.
He looked into the distance in amazement, what kind of place was this, why was the ground so cold!
At this point, a soldier lifted him up again......
"You'd better be honest, we've heard your story, a few years ago he once shined in the Dì DÅ« Academy and was selected by Kirdoll as an alchemist, hmph! If you want to blame it, you don't have much ability to like it, this world can change if you can? How good is it to be an ordinary alchemist, but you have to enter the struggle of several major groups. â
Several of the soldiers spoke words that Rorschach did not understand, and led them to a special cell......
It's more like a cell than a cell, and you can hear the painful moans of many people in the dark, and there seem to be many similar cells in the depths.
"Let's go inside. He shoved Rorschach into the room.
"What the hell is this place? let me out, let me out......"
No one paid attention to Rorschach's shouts, just closed the door and left.
The only light that had just been there quickly vanished, replaced by darker darkness and a clammy environment.
"Hey!"
There was a disgruntled roar towards the darkness, but it seemed that the man was really gone.
"I didn't expect to meet you here, Captain Rorschach. â
"Who?"
Rorschach looked back warily, and in the damp dungeon he could see a dark figure sitting in the corner, but his voice was unrecognizable.
"Who the hell are you?"
Rorschach, who is a prisoner under the stairs, doesn't have much sense of vigilance, but is more curious, there are still people who know themselves in this kind of place!
"By the way, you don't seem to know me yet, but we do remember you, and we've all been impressed by your amazing alchemy abilities. "There was a voice in the darkness.
"We've met before?"
"Duckbill in black!"
The other party said a weird-sounding name, and Rorschach thought about it in his heart for a long time and didn't understand what it meant, duck bill...... Prisoner...... He suddenly remembered the group of attackers he had encountered in the swampy town.
"You ......"
"It seems that you think about it, how you can meet in such a place is really unexpected. The voice in the darkness was more like mockery, but Rorschach felt more confused at this time.
"So it's you, you've been caught, so Ockham isn't dead?"
It was as if I had thought of why I was caught here.
Occam's accomplice was caught, and it is estimated that the other party said that Occam was not dead, so his lie was revealed...... Now the charges of dereliction of duty and lying are sent together.
"Hahahaha......"
Suddenly, the shadow laughed.
Laughing wildly, laughing unbelievably......
"What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at you, at a time like this, you're still thinking about working for the lackeys of those countries. There was a sense of sadness and even self-deprecation in his voice.
"What do you mean. â
"I'm laughing at you for being stupid, you're still asking...... Do you know who we are? we're the Nightkin of the Inquisitors, and we're only going to save Occam so that the Necronomicon study doesn't fall into the hands of any marshal. â
"What!"
Rorschach widened.
Nightcrawler.
I have heard this name, he belongs to the investigator of a secret organization of the state, and he is also the direct department of the all-knowing Meredith Great Alchemist.
"It looks like we've all been deceived...... No one has been saved, and I've been told to fight for the balance of the country since I joined the Nightcrawlers, and we've been trying to save Ockham so that the information in Ockham's hands doesn't leak out, but ......"
Rorschach frowned, realizing that the whole thing didn't seem to be what she had thought.
"What the hell is going on, you say!"
"It was the wizard on your team who helped us rescue Occam, and it was Meredith's bastard who captured us. â
Rorschach listened in shock.
Sorcerer...... Is Master Sean?
But why did the Great Alchemist of Meredith arrest his subordinates.
"Why did they do this, how did you get here, and Occam?"
"He has been taken to another place with our leader Saroyan, which is supposed to be in a dungeon under the Dì Dū Universiade Lake...... A place that we use exclusively for interrogating important prisoners, which is death row, and people who come here can't get out. There was some helpless laughter in the voice in the dark.
And at the moment in the big family of a certain nobleman in Dì Dū......
Richelle listened to her father's words that Master Meredith had imprisoned the two and that Occam had been caught.
"Then why hasn't Rorschach been released, and even if we have been deceived, we won't be sent to death row...... No, I'm going to save Rorschach. â
"Stop me, Ricky!"
The Marquis de Cristian stood up and asked the soldiers around him to block all the doorways to the house.
"Don't you understand, daughter? Kodoll would rather sacrifice his own disciples than resist, he is not even willing to save you...... If I hadn't found you with all my connections, you wouldn't have been able to get out! Who do you think would be the person who could give such an order? Even if you go, it's useless. â
Riggie looked at her father in disbelief.
For a moment, it seemed to understand......
But I'm afraid that I understand.
It can't be, it can't be like this!
..................
The black clouds outside the window were condensing little by little, and it was estimated that no one would notice this in the dark night.
The entire Universiade Lake, which is close to the imperial city, is shrouded in a layer of black clouds......
Not far away, Meredith looked at everything in front of him.
"I didn't expect this to be the power of the great black goat of the forest, I felt it...... She seemed to be paying attention, but she was still far away, far away......" There was madness in her eyes.
"The black goat doesn't deign to come to these places, she's far away from the stars, but she loves surprises...... Only when the slate that belongs to her is combined, you can gain her favor by contributing sacrifices...... Isn't it just that you've spent your whole life researching to be able to see it? Come on, say her name and tell her what you want!"
Meredith has never been so ecstatic and crazy as she is today.
He knew that many people would die soon, but to be able to see the Gate of Truth appear, that was the ultimate goal of an alchemist!
The All-Knowing...... No, he's another legend right away.
The first to truly understand the world!
Call out her name and ...... Tell her what you want!"
The shining crystals in his arms began to urge.
Meredith looked up at the sky......
"Ah, the black goat of the forest that gave birth to thousands of offspring, the great supreme mother goddess...... Sabu Nicholas...... I offer you a sacrifice. â
When the name was spoken, the entire Universiade Lake began to spin......
