Starting from the Wizarding World

Chapter 118: Once again, we are not enemiesChapter 118 Returning Again, We Are Not Enemies

Rorschach raised his hand and took a look, only to see a blood-red mark that looked like a four-leaf clover on the palm of his left hand:
”Name: Seal of Segura”

”Information: The power mark of the Earth Emperor Blood Toad Segura. After being activated with mental power, it can be transferred from any area of ​​the Blood Prison World Group to Segura’s body. After use, Segura needs to re-energize it before it can be used again.”

”Hint: Have you ever seen barnacles being cleaned? No matter how strong a whale is, it can’t do anything about the barnacles on its body. It can only ask weak humans for help to clean them. And those blood toad dolls are like those annoying barnacles to Segura. They need to be cleaned regularly to feel comfortable.”

……

The example given by Zhenyuzhitong was easy to understand, allowing Rorschach to instantly understand why Lord Segura liked him so much.

You have to know that the esophagus they passed through before was just one of the hundreds of esophaguses of Segura.

There are apparently also a large number of blood toad dolls in other areas of its body.

As for why Segura chose Rorschach at first sight, in addition to the fact that Rorschach could indeed eliminate the Blood Toad Dead Doll, it was also because he was weak enough.

Yes, it’s that simple.

The blood toad puppet is indeed troublesome, but it will also be annihilated in the face of absolute power. However, that absolute power must be at least at the Moon level, and it will be difficult for a three-ring Morning Star like the wizard Percy to eliminate it.

There are hundreds of esophagi. If Wizard Percy were to clean them all, even if he didn’t rest or practice, he would have no idea how long it would take to clean them all.

The key point is that as Segura devours new ”prey”, a large number of blood toad dolls will emerge from his body.

If you clean too slowly, the growth may not come as fast as it should.

As for the Moon Class, they do have the ability to quickly clean up these blood toad dolls, but on the one hand, Segura is not at ease letting the Moon Class enter his body at will, and on the other hand, those Moon Class dolls find it embarrassing.

Is it reasonable for a great wizard like Yueyao to work as a cleaner?
Therefore, in the past, unless the accumulation had lasted too long and the number of blood toad dolls in the body had reached a point that it could no longer tolerate, it would ask the Moon Level for help to help it clean it up thoroughly.

It will also pay a huge amount of compensation for this, which makes it very painful.

Now it finally found a little guy who was not even a Morning Star, but actually had the ability to easily remove the Blood Toad Dead Doll from its body. Of course, it did not want to miss it, and immediately left its mark on Rorschach.

”Isn’t this a bit inappropriate, Lord Segura?” Wizard Persi frowned when he saw this scene and said to the bloody toad.

The reason why Wizard Percy asked this question was not because he was jealous of Rorschach or anything, but because Segura’s behavior was indeed breaking the rules.

Strictly speaking, Segura is the contracted partner of the Eighth Prison Lord, and the right to use the Eighth Blood Pool in its body is also controlled by the Prison Lord’s Mansion.

If Rorschach can teleport into Segura’s body at any time, doesn’t it mean that he can use the Eighth Blood Pool without the permission of the Prison Lord’s Mansion?
As a member of the prison lord’s mansion, Wizard Persi naturally does not want to see a situation that is out of control.

”What’s inappropriate? I didn’t say he should use the blood pool. Other than that, it’s my freedom to let anyone come. The Angry Soul doesn’t care about me, so how can you, little guy, care about me?” The tone of the bloody toad suddenly became a little unfriendly.

The change in its tone startled Wizard Percy and he realized that he had overstepped his bounds. He quickly said, ”That is not my intention, Master Segura!”

”You’d better not, quack!” snorted the bloody toad.

After this little episode, Wizard Percy didn’t dare to say anything more and quickly sent Rorschach and the others into the eighth blood pool below.

After entering the blood pool, Rorschach was surprised to find that even if he was completely submerged in the blood pool, he would not be unable to breathe.

The extremely pure Blood Hell power from the blood pool penetrated into his body through every pore of his body, and in the process, the power of Purgatory in his body quickly became active, constantly devouring the Blood Hell power from the outside world and quickly assimilating it into the power of Purgatory.

The whole process went very smoothly because the power of the blood prison in the blood pool was surprisingly gentle.

This is different from the Blood Prison power that is directly absorbed, because under the influence of the blood pool, the Blood Prison power also becomes unusually condensed and soft.

In this way, Rorschach absorbed and transformed at the same time.

The wizard apprentice path, which was originally at Lv.7, also experienced explosive growth again during this process, first reaching Lv.8, and soon after reaching Lv.9, only stopping when it was close to saturation.

In addition, he also gained something from the Purgatory Knights.

First, the realm of the lower legendary was completely stabilized, and then it was also continuously strengthened, and it also stopped when it reached the critical point.

However, Rorschach still did not stop, because he found that he could completely share some of the benefits through the master-slave brand as he had done before.

He himself was saturated, but the four attendants and Ah Dai were not.

So, he continued to absorb a lot, until the four attendants and Ah Dai also told him that they could not absorb any more, then he stopped.

”It’s done!”

When Rorschach emerged from the blood pool, he was immediately picked up by the wizard Percy.

It was not until then that he noticed that he and Hoover were picked up one after the other, and the others had already been absorbed.

When Hoover saw that Rorschach arrived later than him, surprise appeared in his eyes again.

”Then I’ll take them out first, Lord Segura.” After Wizard Persi picked up everyone, he said to the bloody toad.

However, this time the bloody toad was not as enthusiastic as when he first met him. He just responded indifferently, and then said to Rorschach:

”Remember to come here, little Rorschach.”

Apparently, the Bloody Toad had already asked Rorschach’s name from others.

”I will.” Rorschach nodded.

He was still immersed in the previous sense of exhilaration. He had to admit that Blood Hunter really made a lot of money this time.

Even if we put aside all other gains, the benefits brought by the Eighth Blood Pool alone are enough to make the cost worthwhile.

*********
Longjiang City.

After returning from the replacement, He Mingxuan first queued up to take a shower and changed into clean clothes, and then gossiped about the replacement with his colleagues.

”Have you heard that there seems to be a force in the Gray Region that has been hunting down new replacements recently? Anyone who is discovered will be killed.”

”Of course I heard about it. They said that it was possible that the radicals of the three empires came together and planned to carry out a major purge.”

”Then what should we do? Are we just going to sit there and wait for death?”

”How is that possible? I heard that the Big Seven are already discussing launching a counterattack. Our company should also play a role. Isn’t there a big shot from the headquarters coming soon? It’s very likely that they are here for this matter.”

”Who is the big shot at the headquarters?”

”If you ask me, who should I ask? Go, go, go.”

He Mingxuan waved his hand and sent away his colleague who was even more green than himself.

Looking at the workstation opposite him that had been empty all this time, he couldn’t help but fall silent.

Because the person sitting in that position was supposed to be his best buddy, and it turned out that he also gossiped about such things with the other person.

However, time has passed and he hasn’t seen the other person for almost half a year.

”Does a business trip take so long? Could something have happened? This bastard Rorschach is such a worry.” He Mingxuan muttered.

Today’s Blue Water Planet has undergone tremendous changes.

The Displacers are no longer a secret, and even three-year-old children know about the existence of the Gray Zone.

Everything began to evolve around replacement.

As more and more people become replacers, the scale of each major force has expanded countless times.

Just like the Ghost Pushing the Mill, they had already started recruiting people openly a long time ago, and people like He Mingxuan, who were originally peripheral members, naturally became official members of the Ghost Pushing the Mill, which was a pleasant surprise for them.

The biggest difference from before is probably that it’s not easy to be lazy.

”Listen carefully, the one coming today is our Chief Intelligence Officer of Guituimo. He is a top ten figure even in the headquarters, and he is also a gold-level expert!” The new head of the Tianbei branch had arrived one step ahead of time. ”Be smart for a while, understand?”

”Understood!” everyone responded in unison.

He Mingxuan is naturally no exception.

Soon, led by the new head of the Tianbei branch, a woman who looked particularly cool and beautiful walked in from the door.

”Sister-in-law?!”

He Mingxuan blurted out.

His shout scared everyone around him. From the new head of the Tianbei branch to his superiors, they were almost scared to death by his words ”brother-in-law”.

Just when everyone thought he was dead, the chief intelligence officer smiled and said to him:
”Long time no see, Brother He.”

”?!”

He Mingxuan stared at the chief intelligence officer in amazement, totally unable to understand why his brother’s woman had suddenly transformed into a big shot who was ranked among the top ten in the Guituimo headquarters!
He was still a little dazed until Su Xueqi brought him to the familiar Internet cafe and saw Rorschach waiting for him while playing games.

”Surprised? Unexpected?” Rorschach said with a smile.

……

After half an hour.

”So you want to tell me that the brother who skipped classes to play games and slacked off at work with me has also become gold?” After listening to part of Rorschach’s explanation, He Mingxuan couldn’t come back to his senses for a long time.

”That’s about right.” Rorschach nodded.

Although he is not gold now, being too specific will only confuse He Mingxuan, so it is better to just treat him as gold level.

”You slapped me... Forget it, I’m afraid you will beat me to death, I’ll do it myself.” He Mingxuan said as he slapped himself.

Snapped!
After he finished slapping her, he murmured, ”Isn’t this a dream? Has my brother really become a big boss?”

”It’s absolutely genuine.” Rorschach said with a smile.

”Thigh, you are my golden thigh!” He Mingxuan stepped forward and hugged Luo Xia’s thigh, ”Take me flying, Dad!”

”Of course... Let’s go, I’ll take you to see the world first.” Luo Xia patted He Mingxuan on the shoulder and motioned He Mingxuan to follow him.

”See the world?”

Although He Mingxuan was a little confused, he still followed.

When Rorschach and the other two arrived at the entrance of the Internet cafe, the entire hall had been cleared and a majestic middle-aged man was waiting for them.

”May I ask you, your Chief Intelligence Officer, why you suddenly appeared in such a place?” asked the middle-aged man.

”If I say I’m here to surf the Internet, would you believe me?” Su Xueqi said with a smile.

”What do you think?” the middle-aged man asked back.

”Okay, then I’ll tell you the truth. I’m here to help the boss serve tea and water.” Su Xueqi said with a smile.

”I’ve heard that there is a mysterious and powerful person behind you. Is he this sir?” The middle-aged man looked at Luo Xia beside Su Xueqi.

”Who is this? He looks pretty cool.” He Mingxuan asked in a low voice in Luo Xia’s ear.

”Yanlong’s number two is also gold.” Luo Xia said.

”Oh my god!” He Mingxuan was shocked.

Now he naturally understood what it meant for the Flame Dragon to be one of the seven greats. Especially since he was a Great Flame man, he felt it even more unusually.

The middle-aged man in front of me turned out to be Yanlong’s second-in-command... He is a big shot who can be ranked among the top in the world!

”Nice to meet you, General Zhou.” Luo Xia smiled at the middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man’s name is ’Zhou Renli’, and he is indeed Yanlong’s second-in-command. In addition to being an upper-level gold, he is also a mid-level wizard apprentice!
His wizard apprentice level has reached Lv.5!

If Rorschach had met such a person before leaving the Gray Zone, he would definitely have been shocked.

Because even the boss of the Wings of Freedom is not as strong as the one in front of him. As for why Rorschach called him a general, it was naturally because the top leaders of Flame Dragon all had the rank of Great Flame.

Of course, for Rorschach now, neither the upper gold nor the Lv.5 intermediate wizard apprentice is worth mentioning.

”What’s your name?” Zhou Renli looked at Luo Xia and asked.

”General Zhou’s men should have collected all the information about me, so there’s no need for us to beat around the bush.” ​​Rorschach also sat down.

”Then let’s be honest.” Zhou Renli nodded. ”According to the intelligence we have now, Mr. Luo seems to have contact with the third gentleman of the Gentlemen’s Club in addition to being in contact with Intelligence Officer Su?”

”It’s not that they are connected, they are all my people.” Rorschach said directly.

Zhou Renli’s expression turned serious when he heard this. ”Mr. Luo, do you know that the third gentleman, Abel, is a wanted criminal in Dayan?”

Rorschach: ”I know, that’s why I didn’t ask him to come to Dayan.”

Zhou Renli said in a deep voice: ”Does Mr. Luo know that he recently founded a new organization in the Free Alliance called the Lamb Society, and absorbed a large number of notorious Replacers?”

Luo Xia turned his head to look at Su Xueqi and asked, ”Is there anything else?”

Su Xueqi smiled and nodded, ”He said he wanted to help those villains turn over a new leaf and make them the Lord’s loyal lambs.”

”Okay.” Luo Xia shrugged and said, ”As you can see, General Zhou, I just learned about this matter. I didn’t know much about it before.”

Zhou Renli: ”Whether you understand or not, Mr. Luo, since you have contact with the third gentleman, please don’t come to Dayan again in the future.”

When He Mingxuan, who was standing by, heard this, his expression changed slightly!
Because Zhou Renli is the second-in-command of Yanlong, what he said can basically be regarded as the official opinion of Yanlong.

Doesn’t this mean that Rorschach will never be able to return to his country?

Luo Xia heard this, but just said calmly: ”General Zhou, I still respect you very much, because it is you who protected Da Yan... But times have changed. The most important thing for Da Yan is no longer superficial stability, but how to enable more people to have the power to protect themselves.”

”What does Mr. Luo want to express?” Zhou Renli frowned.

”General Zhou, do you think the replacement was accidental?” Rorschach asked.

Zhou Renli thought for a moment and shook his head, ”I don’t know.”

Rorschach continued, ”If I tell you that in the near future, when everyone becomes a Replacer, the entire Blue Water Planet and even the Gray Region may face a major crisis, what do you think, General Zhou?”

Zhou Renli’s expression changed slightly, and he immediately asked, ”Is Mr. Luo’s speculation a bit alarmist?”

Rorschach sighed, ”I hope I’m just exaggerating, but I’m also a Displacer. If that day really comes, no one can stay out of it, even if you’ve already gone outside the Grey Tower.”

Zhou Renli was silent.

Rorschach added: ”What Abel is doing is just making some preparations for the crisis that may come in the future. You don’t have to worry too much about it. As for me...no one should be able to stop me from going wherever I want.”

When he said this, Rorschach had stood up again.

Just as Zhou Renli was about to say something, he felt an overwhelming spiritual pressure coming towards him!
However, the pressure dissipated immediately after it appeared for a moment, which prevented him from losing his composure.

As a mid-level wizard apprentice who had already left the Gray Region, he had naturally come into contact with many powerful people. However, the mental pressure he had just felt was stronger than any high-level wizard apprentice he had ever encountered!
This made him look at Rorschach in shock and said, ”You——”

”We are not enemies... That’s all I have to say.”

Luo Xia had already passed by Zhou Renli at this time. He paused for a moment before walking back to the door.

It was not until Luo Xia and his companions had left for a long time that Yanlong’s men ran in.

”Are you okay, General?” asked one of his men.

”It’s alright.” Zhou Renli shook his head and stood up, saying, ”Remove all surveillance on Luo Xia and stop all investigations. This matter ends here.”

”What’s wrong, General? Did something happen?” The subordinate was a little surprised when he heard this.

”Good thing.” Zhou Renli suddenly smiled.

He said something that left everyone under him confused.

……

After making arrangements for He Mingxuan, Luo Xia spent a few days with his family, and then asked Su Xueqi to arrange a private plane to take him to an island.

This time when he returned to the Blue Water Star, he did not spend most of his time in meditation as he did before, because since leaving the Eighth Blood Pool, he had already reached the pinnacle of high-level wizard apprentices and there was no room for improvement.

”It’s time to take this final step.”

Rorschach arrives at the island and prepares to break through!
If successful, he would be the first person on Blue Water Star to cross this threshold and become the first Morning Star Wizard on Blue Water Star!
