Chapter 92 The secret of the predecessor, the inexplicable kindness

"I was very nervous at the time. I didn't know if he was..." When Su Xueqi said this, she suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Luo Xia was a little surprised.

"Why don't you just watch it, boss?" Su Xueqi suggested.

Only after being reminded by Su Xueqi did Luo Xia remember that Su Xueqi, as his attendant, could indeed show him memories directly.

If you look at it directly, it will definitely be clearer than just describing it.

"Okay." Luo Xia nodded.

When Su Xueqi heard this, she immediately closed her eyes and passed the memory to Luo Xia, and Luo Xia also closed her eyes and watched.

…

After Luo Xia absorbed the memory transmitted by Su Xueqi, he appeared outside a room directly from Su Xueqi's first-person perspective.

This is a wonderful experience, just like VR first-person perspective, but it is far more real than that feeling.

Dong dong dong——

Rorschach saw 'himself' knocking on the door.

Immediately afterwards, Rex's familiar voice came from the room: "Come in."

'I' immediately opened the door and walked in.

Rorschach could even feel his heartbeat that was accelerating, and these were obviously Su Xueqi's feelings at that time. After all, what she felt in her memory was not only vision and hearing, but also other senses.

Including rapid heartbeat caused by stress!

When Rorschach saw Rex for the first time from Su Xueqi's perspective, the other party said something that shocked Rorschach:

"Are you a Displacer too, Stephanie?"

At this moment, Luo Xia seemed to feel that his breathing had paused, and his true feelings were actually no less than Su Xueqi's.

When the word "displacer" is said from the mouth of a "native" in their eyes, especially when this "native" is a gold-level powerhouse, the feeling can't be described in words!

Luo Xia asked himself, if he were put in Su Xueqi's situation, his performance might be worse than Su Xueqi's.

Because he had been with Rex for so long, and he had never heard Rex mention the topic of foreign evil spirits, let alone the word 'displacer'.

Being able to say this word means that you already have a certain understanding of the group of Displacers, and it is not just a matter of noticing something is wrong.

How could Rorschach not be shocked by this?

"Senior..." Luo Xia could hear that his voice was trembling slightly, and even though he tried his best to calm it down, it didn't help.

Luo Xia was not surprised by this, nor did he think Su Xueqi's performance was bad, because this kind of reaction is human nature.

Even if Su Xueqi were replaced by a lunatic like Abel who was really not afraid of death, it would be difficult for her to not react at all when faced with this situation.

Rex didn't wait for Su Xueqi to finish what he said, and continued: "You don't need to be too nervous. As early as after you reunited with Rorschach for the first time, I guessed that you were also a Displacer. Well, just like that unconscious person.

Like a bad boy at heart."

"If you knew this a long time ago, why didn't you take action?" Rorschach heard 'himself' ask in a somewhat urgent voice.

The rush here is obviously due to nervousness rather than anxiety.

Su Xueqi's answer also meant that she acquiesced to Rex's statement and admitted her identity as a replacer.

The main reason is that she understands that it doesn't make much difference whether she admits it or not. When Rex asked her so straightforwardly, she already had the answer in her heart.

Coupled with her previous reaction, this is basically confirmed.

No matter how she quibbles now, it's all in vain. It's better to save those unnecessary embarrassing links.

"Do it?" Rex shook his head and chuckled, "Why do you do it? Is it just because you are from another world? If you want to kill people who see other worlds, aren't the ones who deserve to be killed the most? Those who treat me as equals.

Is there a visitor from the humble insect’s [Grey Tower]?”

really!

Rorschach couldn't help but say hello to Rex in his heart, because the pattern of these words opened up immediately, and it did make sense.

To the people of the Gray Realm, it is true that the Displacers are outsiders, but how can they not be visitors from the [Grey Tower] like Jack and others?

If people from foreign lands should be killed, then of course people like Jack should be killed too!

However, Su Xueqi obviously couldn't believe this answer, so Luo Xia immediately heard 'himself' ask:

"It's not that I don't believe what you said, it's just that if you have a certain understanding of our group, you should know that our mortality rate is highest when we first arrive. Once we are found to have problems, we will be killed immediately. This

This situation can’t be an exception, right?”

"Of course it's not an exception." Rex said lightly, "But this has nothing to do with you coming from another world, because for those who are replaced by you, it is equivalent to being killed by you, and as their family members, replacing

Isn't it natural for one's relatives and friends to seek revenge? How does this relate to whether you are from a different world?"

"..."

Luo Xia admitted that he was convinced, and he could feel that Su Xueqi was also convinced.

People in the Gray Realm are extremely repulsive to foreign evil spirits, and will kill them mercilessly if they find them... This is the consensus of most of the replacers, including Gao Tianlin who told Luo Xia when he was awakening.

But if you look at it from the perspective that Rex said, this matter may not really be that complicated.

Most of the hostility of people in the Gray Realm towards the so-called foreign evil spirits comes from the fact that their relatives and friends have been harmed, so they are so extreme.

If it were simply because the replacers were people from other worlds, the people in the Gray Realm might really not care that much, just like they did to the visitors from the [Grey Tower].

The Gray Realm has been plagued by constant wars all year round. The blood debts between the three empires are simply too numerous to count. The few people replaced by the replacements are not enough to sustain a war between the three empires.

"If you are regarded as a group, and the other two groups are the remnants of the evil god and the visitors from the [Grey Tower], the harm you have brought to the Gray Realm is not even worthy of carrying their shoes." Rex said lightly.

.

All right.

I have to say that there is indeed nothing wrong with what Rex said.

Rorschach personally witnessed the struggle between the remnants of the evil god and the visitors from the [Grey Tower]. No one on either side regarded the ordinary people in the Gray Realm as human beings. It was just that one was cannibalizing people openly and the other was cannibalizing people secretly.

In essence, they all regard the beings in the Gray Realm as livestock.

On the contrary, among the Displacers, although there are also some murderers, most of them live cautiously so as not to reveal their identities.

Overall, such a group of people does not have much negative impact on the Gray Realm, and is far less difficult to deal with than the other two groups.

Sometimes, the Displacers even obey the rules more than the "natives" of the Gray Realm, because these are things engraved in their bones.

When Rex said this, Rorschach actually understood what he meant.

To the real superiors in the Gray Realm, especially the three major empires, the Displacer is not a scourge in their eyes.

Of course, there is a premise here, that is, gold level and above cannot be replaced. This is also the current consensus.

Otherwise, those in power will definitely not be able to sit still.

However, what Rex said so much can only mean that the people in the Gray Realm will not be unreasonably hostile to the Displacer.

But the problem is, Rorschach replaced his predecessor!

His predecessor basically grew up eating hundreds of meals in Twilight Village. His arrival is equivalent to killing his predecessor. Will Rex not care?

Rorschach was deeply suspicious of this.

While Rorschach was thinking about Rex's thoughts, he could only hear Rex in his memory continuing to say to Su Xueqi: "As for Rorschach, that brat, he probably thought he was disguised very well, but he didn't know that he was already in the village.

His father found out, and his father even came to see me specifically for this."

"Village, what village?" Rorschach heard 'himself' ask.

Rex realized for the first time at this time that Luo Xia did not tell Su Xueqi about Twilight Village. He immediately shook his head and smiled:

"Don't worry about the village. Just help me bring the message to him. Tell him that I have known that he is a replacement for a long time. Not only do I know, but his father also knows, and it was his father who discovered it."

"At that time, his father found me privately. In addition to leaving the things for him, another very important reason was to tell me about this and to ask me not to be hostile to him because of his status as a replacement, because the original

That Rorschach is not a real living entity."

"Not a living individual in the true sense...what do you mean?" Rorschach could feel that he was confused.

"What do you mean, you don't have to worry about it." Rex shook his head and said, "I know that you should be able to meet in your world soon. Just remember to bring him what I just said."

"Also, you tell him that it's up to him whether he believes what I say or not. Whether he comes back or not, it won't affect you, so he doesn't have to worry."

…

The memory comes to an end here.

When Rorschach opened his eyes again, he was speechless for a long time.

"Isn't it shocking?" Su Xueqi asked with a smile.

"What do you think?" Rorschach asked thoughtfully.

"I don't know much about you, boss, and your origins, and I can't make a good judgment. But regarding the fact that the attitude of the people in the Gray Realm towards the replacements is not to kill them all, I think what he said is quite reasonable.

"Su Xueqi expressed her own opinion.

Rorschach nodded, not surprised by this.

The previous part of what Rex said is definitely correct. This can also be verified once again combined with the tacit understanding between the Seven and Three Empires that Depp mentioned to him before.

The real superiors in the Gray Realm never think that the existence of replacers is a crisis, because the Gray Realm itself has all kinds of crises.

The addition of one more group of replacers will not affect the overall situation.

What's more, those top displacers have obviously reached some unwritten agreements with the three empires, and this is why the three empires turned a blind eye to the emergence of the displacers and pretended that they did not exist.

However, what really concerned Rorschach was Rex's last few paragraphs.

If it is true as Rex said, his cheap dad Hughes has obviously discovered that he is a replacement, but did not expose it.

Not only did he not expose it, but he even approached Rex privately to ask him not to care about his identity as a replacement.

As for the reason, it sounds like it has to do with the particularity of the predecessor. If we only understand it literally, there is some kind of secret in the predecessor.

It was precisely because of the secret of his predecessor that his cheap dad, Hughes, could immediately discover that he was no longer his predecessor.

But also because of this secret, cheap dad Hughes didn't seem to care that he had 'seized' his predecessor. Instead, he specifically told Rex to ignore the fact that Rorschach was a replacer.

Of course, Rorschach also understood that these were just Rex's unilateral statements, and further judgment was needed to determine whether they were true or false.

But when he thought about it carefully, everything seemed to be right.

He had long suspected that his far-from-excellent acting skills could really hide it from Hughes, who was a wizard?

This question once made him think deeply about it, but later he had to stop thinking about it because he couldn't figure it out.

It wasn't until he learned the behind-the-scenes story from Rex that he was finally convinced that Hughes had indeed seen something wrong with him.

From this point of view, Rex should be telling the truth.

In addition, Rorschach has also been aware of the secret in his predecessor.

Long before he melted the blood of purgatory, the Eye of True Sight at that time had reminded him that he himself had special characteristics!

At that time, he had thought about what this particularity meant.

Did the identity of the replacer give him the special characteristic of being able to ignore the bloodline level, or did the Eye of True Sight give him this special characteristic, or was there some kind of special characteristic in his predecessor that allowed him to benefit from it?

?

These three possibilities all existed in Rorschach's eyes at the time.

Later, as more and more things are learned, the first possibility can naturally be rejected directly.

But he really couldn't distinguish between the second and third possibilities.

But now, he suddenly found the real source of that specialness from Rex's words... It was the specialness of his predecessor!

This is most likely related to the secrets of the predecessor.

It's just that it's obviously impossible to fully understand the situation just by relying on the few words Rex conveyed.

After solving the unsolved mysteries about himself, Rorschach actually believed what Rex said. He had really known that Rorschach was a displacer for a long time, and it was really Hughes who told him.

.

The only thing Rorschach is still unsure about is what is the purpose of cheap daddy Hughes?

Even if there was really something wrong with his predecessor, he is now equivalent to a descendant from another world and has directly replaced his predecessor.

Taking a step back, even if Hughes and his predecessor are not biologically related to each other, Hughes does not care about the life and death of his predecessor, but this does not mean that Hughes should be kind to him, a visitor from another world, right?

Rorschach understood that there must be a deeper reason for Hughes's arrangements, but his information was limited and he could not guess.

"That's not right. Why didn't that damn Garbage Eye remind me that Cheap Daddy already knew my identity?" Luo Xia suddenly thought of a question.

It's been a long time since he called the True Hell Pupil a trash eye, because it's really quite powerful since it arrived in the Gray Realm.

But this incident did make him a little passive. If he could have known this earlier, he wouldn't have to be worried in front of Rex all the time.

Thinking of this, he looked directly at the mirror next to him and took the initiative to peek at himself in the mirror:

"Name: Rorschach"

"Race: Human Race·Purgatory Knight·Wizard Apprentice"

"Ability: Blood Hell Witchcraft - Blood Refining Chapter (Real Hell Edition) Lv.3, Purgatory Meditation Lv.3"

"Tip 1: Don't you think the unknown feels the most wonderful? Well, it seems you can't understand this painstaking effort, stupid mortal..."

"Tip 2: What is certain is that Hughes does not have any ill intentions towards you, and what Rex said is indeed true. As for what Hughes' purpose is, you need to find out for yourself."

"Hint 3: Your predecessor is indeed not simple."

…

"I knew it."

Seeing the prompt from the True Hell Eye, Rorschach was speechless.

Rorschach can still understand that the information on Hughes cannot be fully penetrated by the True Hell Eye, but Rex is also involved in this matter.

How could the True Hell Eye not be able to observe any cause and effect? ​​At the very least, it could see that Rex knew the identity of his replacement. However, this piece of shit had not mentioned a word before, so Rorschach did not think about it at all.

.

In fact, Rorschach had already noticed many of the problems here.

There was just such a crucial point that he couldn't figure out, so it turned into several unsolved mysteries. If the True Prison Eye could have given some clues earlier, he would definitely not be as ignorant of the real situation as he is now.

Fortunately, this thing was quite sensible and knew that he was really angry, so he gave him a compensatory reminder.

You must know that the prompts of the True Hell Eye have always been random. The prompts that often appear are those that he does not need, and the prompts that he needs are not prompted. This time is obviously an exception.

"Oh, I guess you know the truth."

After seeing the second prompt from the True Hell Eye, Rorschach finally felt a lot better, because this prompt really helped him a lot.

From this compensatory reminder, he could confirm once again that what Rex said was true, and he did not need to worry about this being some kind of conspiracy.

As for the last prompt, Rorschach simply ignored it.

This is pure nonsense and nothing to care about.

Even if the Eye of the True Prison is not clear about this, he still knows that there is a secret in his predecessor. What he wants to know is what the secret is.

And why, even though he knew his identity as a replacer, Hughes still had no ill intentions toward him and even gave him the blood of purgatory.

Even if Hughes really doesn't know the origin of the purgatory blood, he can at least see that the purgatory blood is not simple, right?

Under such circumstances, they also chose to leave the purgatory blood to Rorschach as the replacer, which is undoubtedly a very strange approach.

But it's a pity that the True Prison Eyes obviously won't prompt him what he wants to know just because he's curious, so he can only look for clues on his own.
