Starting from the Wizarding World

Chapter 122 Pierre warns of the plague of blood locusts!Chapter 122 Pierre warns of the plague of blood locusts!
”Have you offended anyone recently?”

As soon as Pierre entered the room, he asked Rorschach with a serious face.

”What’s wrong?” When Rorschach heard Pierre ask this, he immediately realized that something might have happened.

”Someone was asking about you through the channels of the Prison Court, and happened to ask a friend of mine. He knew that you are my current partner and was afraid that it would affect my guiding mission, so he revealed this to me.” Pierre summarized the whole story and told Rorschach.

”Is anyone asking about my whereabouts?”

Rorschach couldn’t help but frown when he heard this.

He had only been on Blood Prison Island for a little over a month, and apart from Pierre and Silva, the number of people he knew could be counted on one hand.

But he didn’t remember having any conflict with anyone, and he couldn’t understand who among these few people would go to such great lengths to find out about him.

”Could it be someone from the Urko family?” Murphy suddenly reminded from the side.

”But I’ve only been here for a short time. It’s impossible for the Urko family to be so powerful that they can cover the whole Blood Prison Island with one hand and monitor my arrival at any time, right?” Rorschach felt something was amiss.

”That’s indeed impossible.” Murphy was also a little confused.

”Who are these two?” Pierre asked.

Rorschach then remembered that he had not introduced them to each other yet, so he gave a brief introduction to the two of them and pointed out their identities.

So as to prevent Pierre from being too arrogant.

But this was purely his overthinking. Although Pierre was a bit of a novice, he did not have the arrogance that most wizards had. Otherwise, he would not have been a guide for thousands of years and constantly dealt with rookies like Rorschach.

After a brief introduction, Pierre continued, ”What is the origin of the Urco family you just mentioned?”

”The Eighth Blood Hell is a wizard family with a very bad reputation, but its power is indeed strong. Its ancestor is the Great Wizard Extreme Shadow, one of the five speakers of the [Evil Council].” Rorschach explained to Pierre.

Obviously, the Urko family’s notoriety is basically limited to the Eighth Blood Prison, and they are just unknown people on the Blood Prison Island.

However, Pierre must have heard of the name of the ancestor of the Urco family.

Even on the Blood Prison Island, the [Evil Council] is notorious, and the Great Wizard Jiying, who is the chairman of the council, is naturally also well-known.

After learning about the conflict between Rorschach, the Urko family, and the Great Wizard Jiying, Pierre pondered and asked, ”Before you came to Blood Prison Island, how many people knew that you were coming from the Eighth Blood Prison?”

”Not much, and they’re basically all here, except... um?” Rorschach was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly realized what the problem might be.

Dark Bone Wizard!

If the problem really lies with the Black Bone Wizard, then everything makes sense, because the Black Bone Wizard not only knew that he was coming, but also brought him here personally, and also knew that he and Silva went to the [Prison Court].

At most, they are not clear about Silva’s identity and strength.

But if the Black Bone Wizard really fell into the hands of the Urko family, these things would no longer be a secret to the Urko family, and with the intelligence they currently have, they would be able to narrow the scope to find Rorschach!

Rorschach suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his words because he realized this possibility.

When Rorschach thought of this possibility, he immediately shared the situation with Pierre and Murphy.

After listening to Rorschach’s analysis, Garlon said angrily, ”These bugs are really endless. Sooner or later, they will all be killed!”

”Why don’t you leave Blood Prison Island and hide for a while? Once you become a formal jailer, even the great wizard Extreme Shadow will not dare to deal with you directly. But if you are just an apprentice, your deterrent effect on big shots like them will still be very limited.” Pierre gave Rorschach advice.

”I’ll consider it.” Rorschach nodded.

If necessary, he really doesn’t mind avoiding the limelight. As a one-ring Morning Star, when facing an enemy who may involve the Five-ring Moon Wizard, does he have to fight him head-on?
However, he also had some other considerations, which prevented him from deciding to leave immediately.

Because Senes is not the only one with a background. If he asks Silva for help, will the great wizard Jiying have a quarrel with Silva, one of the four wardens of the Prison Court, because of the death of a descendant?

Of course, the premise of this matter is that Silva is willing to help him.

In fact, he was not completely sure about this matter, because he was not sure what the relationship between Silva and Zeus was like, and whether it was worth asking Silva to help him intimidate the great wizard Jiying.

”Then I’ll withdraw first. If you need any information, you can come to me. I’ll try my best to help if I can. For the rest, I’ll...” Pierre shrugged and didn’t finish his words because he believed Rorschach would understand.

”Thank you for the trip.” Rorschach expressed his gratitude sincerely.

Pierre didn’t owe him anything. He had done his best by making a special trip to inform him after learning that someone was trying to find out about him through connections in the Prison Court.

As for Pierre not wanting to be dragged into this trouble, he could fully understand that, after all, the relationship between the two was just that of ordinary partners.

Would he offend a Five-Ring Moon just for Pierre?

The answer is of course no.

Since he couldn’t do it, why should he ask Pierre to do it? Besides, Pierre himself was a lazy person who was most afraid of trouble.

However, the development of the situation was much faster than they expected.

Pierre had just stepped out of the door when he quickly retreated back again, and said to Rorschach with a helpless look on his face:

”If I say now that I don’t know you, will they believe me?”

Pierre’s action made Rorschach and the others immediately realize that trouble was coming.

When they arrived at the yard, they found that the entire outside of the villa had changed. It looked like it was enclosed by some kind of barrier and completely isolated from the outside of the villa.

In addition, there are some unfamiliar faces at the edge of the barrier, and among them is an old acquaintance of Rorschach.

”I’m sorry, I don’t have any choice in front of them, and I don’t want to die.” The Black Bone Wizard said weakly.

It looked like he had suffered a lot.

”Understand.” Rorschach nodded.

There is no need to ask questions about this kind of stance.

His attention was not always on the Black Bone Wizard, but on the leader of this group of uninvited guests:
「Name: Quincy」

”Race: Ghost Walker”

”Level: Disaster Level”

”Ability: Plague of Blood Locusts”

”Hint 1: When the Ghost Servant’s compatibility with the Ghost it contains reaches a certain level and it has not lost its mind, it has a chance to evolve into a new type of semi-ghost life, also known as the Ghost Walker!”

”Hint 2: The strength of the ghost walker is difficult to define, because it must depend on the level of the ghost they contain. For example, the guy in front of you contains a disaster-level ghost, the ’Blood Locust Ghost’. In terms of destructive power and threat, it is definitely not inferior to the Four Rings Moon!”

”Hint 3: You may not be the protagonist this time”

……

”An advanced version of the Phantom Servant?”

After seeing the information about the leading man named Quincy, Rorschach also realized that this should be the killer sent by the Urko family this time.

A ghostly walker whose strength may be comparable to that of the Four-ring Moon!
All wizards in the Blood Hell world are familiar with the ubiquitous ghosts, and they also know that those truly terrifying ghosts will even make formal wizards feel afraid when they encounter them.

Ordinary dangerous and high-dangerous phantoms are okay. At most, they are a threat to the wizard apprentice stage, and it is difficult to threaten the Morning Star level.

But it’s different when it comes to disaster level.

Even ordinary disaster-level phantoms can threaten Morning Star-level wizards, and top-level disaster-level phantoms can even threaten Four-Ring Moon!
Like the blood locust ghost that Quincy in front of Rorschach was taking in, it was a disaster-level ghost, and the most troublesome one at the disaster level.

Before being taken in by Quincy, this ghostly blood locust had plagued more than ten territories of a blood prison, and no one could deal with it.

It was by chance that Quincy took in the Blood Locust Phantom, and was later subdued by the [Council of Evil] and became a capable assistant of the Great Wizard Extreme Shadow.

Obviously, in the eyes of the great wizard Jiying, as long as Quincy takes action, few people under the Moon will be able to survive.

”Is that Rorschach?” Quincy glanced at Rorschach who had previously talked to the Dark Bone Wizard, then asked the Dark Bone Wizard for confirmation.

”Yes, he is Rorschach.” The Black Bone Wizard nodded, ”And the two behind him are Garlon and Murphy that I mentioned.”

”The adults said, don’t bother with them, just pretend you didn’t see them.” Quincy shook his head and said, ”Who is that passerby over there?” The person Quincy was asking about this time was naturally Pierre.

”I don’t know either. I’ve never seen it before.” The Black Bone Wizard glanced at Pierre and shook his head.

”I said I was passing by, do you believe me?”

Pierre had already greeted Quincy from a distance, ”Why don’t you guys just chat about your own things and ignore me, ok?”

It was obvious that Pierre really wanted to stay out of it.

However, the leader Quincy did not give him this opportunity and said, ”Except for those two, kill all the others.”

As soon as Quincy said this, Pierre’s face turned completely black!
Because the two people Quincy mentioned were Garlon and Murphy, not him as an outsider.

”I just want to lie down and die, why do you have to force me...”

Pierre’s voice had become completely gloomy, a side of him he had never shown before!
It was not until then that he truly possessed the dark and profound temperament of the Abyss Wizard, instead of giving people a lazy feeling.

”Since you don’t want me to lie down properly, then I will let you lie down first!”

Pierre took action instantly!

His actions were decisive, faster and more ruthless than those of the wizards of the Council of Evil who had received orders from Quincy!
But he raised his hand and a dark light blasted out, directly hitting the heads of the uninvited guests near the barrier field, and exploded above them!

Relatively thin rays of dark light suddenly emanated from the explosion point and attacked the uninvited guests below!

Those who reacted quickly dodged it immediately, but those who reacted a little slower could not withstand the sudden attack of the thin dark light!

slap... slap...

Almost all those who were hit by Pierre fell to the ground. It didn’t look like they were killed instantly, but just fell into a deathly silent sleep.

”That breath of power just now was... the power of the abyss?” Quincy looked at Pierre thoughtfully and said, ”I’ve always heard that there is a weirdo from the abyss in the [Prison Court] who doesn’t do any serious work and just likes to kill time. Is that you?”

”If you want to fight, then fight. So much nonsense!”

Garlon was already losing his patience.

Of course, as the real target of these people, Rorschach would definitely not let Garlon and the others take action first.

Before, he was just thinking about the last words of Zhenyu Zhitong in his heart and made some arrangements by the way. Now there is no need to wait any longer!
”You want my life? Then come and take it!”

Rorschach’s attack seemed more ferocious than Pierre’s. Even though the latter was the Three-Ring Morning Star from the Abyss, Rorschach’s attack was a straight-up confrontation.

While he was speaking, he had already appeared in front of the group of uninvited guests, as if he was not afraid of being surrounded at all!
Rorschach punched a First-Ring Morning Star in the head with a backhand punch. At the same time, he immediately looked at the other First-Ring Morning Star closest to him and said, ”Have you ever felt despair?”

In the eyes of the One Ring Morning Star, Rorschach’s eyes seemed to suddenly begin to spin, pulling at his witch spirit!

When endless darkness appeared before his eyes, all kinds of pain and despair came one after another, making him let out a shrill wail!
”Do not!!”

The despair of purgatory made him suffer more than death.

”How dare you!” Quincy said angrily.

It was fine that Pierre made the first move, because he was also a three-ring morning star after all, and an apprentice jailer.

But Rorschach, a One-Ring Morning Star, actually dared to take the initiative?

This made Quincy unable to bear it: ”Go to hell!”

Quincy’s entire body exploded in an instant!
He was not self-destructing in protest, because his explosion was not a real explosion, but his entire body suddenly turned into a long dragon-like swarm of blood locusts!

These blood locusts are not real life forms, nor are they blood beasts, but rather the mysterious offspring of blood locusts!

Their characteristic is to eat all living things within their sight!
Wherever the blood locusts pass, not even a fly can survive the gnawing of the blood locusts!

”Master Quincy, no!”

An unlucky guy brought by Quincy was too close to the blood locusts due to carelessness, and half of his body was eaten by the blood locusts!
If he hadn’t shouted in time, by the time Quincy reacted, he would probably have been dead.

It’s not that Quincy has a grudge against him, but when Quincy enters this semi-ghostly form, his thinking sensitivity will definitely be affected.

Not only will the reaction be a few beats slower, but even the mentality will be affected by the blood locust’s own weirdness.

This also led to the fact that he could easily hurt his own people by mistake.

Looking at the overwhelming blood locust swarm, the people on Luo Xia’s side did not dare to hold back at all and attacked one after another -

”Blood Rage Collapse!”

Murphy took action first, causing the part of the blood locust swarm closest to him to explode automatically, as if the blood locusts had self-destructed under pressure.

”Dragon Breath Spear!!”

Garlon was not willing to be outdone. Suddenly, a black dragon energy shadow appeared above his head and spewed out a breath of dragon’s breath forward!
He took this opportunity to condense the dragon breath emitted by the black dragon phantom, turned it into a spear, and suddenly shot it towards the swarm of blood locusts!

Wherever the Dragon’s Breath Spear passed, the blood locust swarms were pierced through, creating several huge passages!

Luo Xia’s attack was not as fancy as theirs. He simply looked at the blood locust swarm in front of him.

”True Prison: Annihilation!”

Wherever he looked, the swarms of blood locusts seemed to be swallowed by something invisible... and disappeared silently!

However, only Rorschach knew that the swarms of blood locusts did not disappear, but he used the witch spirit to activate the True Prison Eye, instantly pulling those blood locusts into the purgatory dimension, so it seemed as if they were suddenly wiped out.

In the past, Rorschach would never have been able to do this.

Because at that time, the True Prison Eye could at most pull the soul into the purgatory dimension, and could not pull in any target with a physical existence.

But as he broke through the Morning Star and his mental power combined with his soul to transform into a witch spirit, both his connection with the Purgatory dimension and the power of the True Prison Eye under the stimulation of the witch spirit had undergone earth-shaking changes!

Even if these blood locust swarms are not just energy bodies, but products of semi-ghostly forms, he can now pull them into the purgatory dimension.

Of course, the end result is no different than erasure.

Because these blood locust swarms cannot survive in the purgatory dimension, or in other words, when they were separated from Quincy’s ”main body”, they had already lost consciousness, which was no different from direct brain death.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Rorschach’s move was a direct erasure.

At this moment, a vague face suddenly emerged from the swarm of blood locusts, and it was exactly the appearance of Quincy!

But the blood locust face looked down at Luo Xia and said: ”It’s an interesting power, but it’s a pity that your strength is too weak. If you were a three-ringed one, you might pose some threat to me, but now... just accept your fate.”

Quincy’s tone was unusually calm.

Although the attacks of Rorschach and the other two cleared out a portion of the blood locust swarm, he seemed not to notice it at all and did not care at all.

The reason why he behaved like this was very simple, because what Rorschach and the others were doing was just useless!

If the phantom blood locusts could be solved so easily, it would not deserve to be called a plague of blood locusts.

It seemed that a lot of them had been killed, but in just a breath of time, those blood locusts that had been killed or wiped out in various ways were replenished in the blood locust swarm.

These blood locusts can rapidly split in a short period of time, thereby continuously increasing the total number of blood locust swarms, and are not afraid of consumption at all.

Seeing this scene, Rorschach also understood that if they continued to consume energy like this, Quincy would definitely not be the one who suffered in the end.

But he was not panicked.

Because he had more than one way to deal with the current situation, and he was just thinking about which method to use.

The easiest way, of course, is to directly activate the Seal of Segura!
