Start with the Wizarding World

Chapter 147 Silva’s Warning!

"How did you end up here? I heard that you, like Weller, died at the hands of the old gods from outside the domain. For this reason, the Wrathful Soul united more than ten prison masters to attack Warden Nan. Are you pretending to be dead?"

The parrot's tone was intriguing, and it was obvious that it had mistakenly thought this was a plot for an internal fight within the Blood Prison.

"You are... becoming faster?" The bloody little toad stared at the parrot carefully for a few seconds, as if he remembered something.

"Becoming fast?" Luo Xia repeated the name with interest after hearing it.

The parrot was a little annoyed when he heard this name: "Can you please not mention this name, damn 'Black Boy', can't you just give him a normal nickname!"

Black boy?

If Rorschach remembered correctly, this should be the name of the fifth prison lord.

Although he had only seen the eighth lord of the prison, Angry Soul, and the thirteenth lord of the prison, Tiffany, so far, he had more or less heard Pierre mention the names of other lords, some of whom left a deep impression on him.

For example, the eleventh prison lord Weiler, who was also implicated in the defection of the great wizard Jiying and even lost his life; another example is the first prison lord 'Gu', who is the leader of the eighteen prison lords; and the fifth prison lord, the great wizard Heitong, who was just mentioned by the great wizard Wanshou. You will never forget them after hearing them once.

According to the scholar of All Beasts, the nickname that Segura just called should have been given by the great wizard Hei Tong, the lord of the fifth prison.

"I think it sounds pretty nice." The bloody little toad seemed a little indifferent to the protest from the scholar of All Beasts University.

"Don't change the subject, you haven't answered my question yet." The parrot decided not to argue with Segura about the nickname and asked again.

"What's there to answer? Can't you feel that I haven't recovered yet? I just survived by luck. There's nothing much to say."

The bloody little toad said this with a somewhat depressed tone, "As for Weller...he is indeed gone."

"Sorry." The parrot apologized immediately after hearing this.

Although there is never a lack of internal strife in the wizarding world, the wizarding world has always been united when facing external enemies.

As the first line of defense against the Old Gods, sacrifices are inevitable in the Blood Prison World Group. The eleventh prison lord, Wheeler, is not the first prison lord to sacrifice, nor will he be the last.

The scholar of the University of Beasts had previously mistakenly believed that this incident was an internal fight within the Blood Prison because Segura was still alive, but now it seems that this is not the case.

In this case, what he just said was undoubtedly a bit rash.

"Don't apologize. Angry Soul must know that I'm not dead. He will attack Warden Nan. The main reason is that this incident is closely related to Warden Nan. The defected Great Wizard Jiying had the opportunity to go out of the domain because of the protection of Warden Nan." The bloody little toad explained.

"I see."

The scholar of the University of Beasts obviously did not know this before. After hearing Segura's explanation, he finally understood why the Eighth Prison Master did so.

Indeed, it is certainly not easy to make Warden Nan, the Quartet Warden, pay the price.

After all, who has reached this position today without having made many achievements?
If we only consider the contribution to the Blood Prison, Warden Nan has definitely made no less than the deceased eleventh lord.

In this situation, it is not so easy to make Warden Nan pay for the death of the eleventh warden through some joint liability.

However, after Segura's death and the joint attack by more than ten prison lords, this matter would definitely not be left unresolved.

Finally, the deputy chief warden of the [Prison Court] showed up in person and announced the punishment for Warden Nan, requiring him to preside over the war outside the domain for ten thousand years and not to return to Blood Prison Island during this process.

This punishment may not sound like a big deal, but the battlefield outside the domain has always been the most dangerous place, especially since Warden Nan has to preside over the battle.

During these ten thousand years, he had to bear any situation that occurred on the battlefield outside the Blood Prison.

This level of punishment is already very severe for a person of Warden Nan's level. After all, this matter has no direct connection with him.

The defection of the great wizard Jiying was also beyond his expectations.

If the Eighth Prison Lord had not argued for his reasons and joined forces with many other prison lords to attack him, the most he would have received in the end would have been some verbal criticism.

……

From the Scholar of the University of Beasts, Rorschach and his friends also learned about the latest developments in the Blood Prison.

I have to say that the intelligence provided by the scholars at the University of Beasts is still very powerful.

Of course, this is normal. After all, the [Tower of Omniscience] is a semi-open wizarding organization with a very wide coverage. Any information that does not involve real secrets is defenseless to the [Tower of Omniscience].

As the custodian of the tower, the Scholar of All Beasts naturally has a large amount of intelligence resources.

"So, Luo Xia, you are actually from the [Prison Court]?" The scholar of the University of Beasts who regained his human form was an old man who looked very majestic.

This is a completely different style from his parrot form.

In fact, it was not just the Scholar of Beasts. His mortal enemy, the Scholar of Gold, was also very elegant when he regained his human form.

"To be precise, not yet. I think he's an apprentice prison guard." Rorschach shook his head and smiled.

"What the hell is the [Prison Court] doing? Am I, a senior scholar of the [Tower of Omniscience] not worthy of being their official member?"

The Master of All Beasts frowned and said, "Why don't you not go back and stay in the tower from now on. Although the [Prison Court] has made great contributions, it would be a waste for a talent like you to go to the [Prison Court]. It is better for you to stay here and do research."

"Wanshou, what's wrong with you, brat? Are you trying to poach someone else's girl?" An obviously unhappy voice suddenly sounded.

When Rorschach heard this familiar voice, he recognized the owner of the voice and immediately turned around to look behind him:

"Uncle Silva, why are you here?"

Looking at the familiar short old man, Rorschach was a little surprised.

As one of the few good friends of his cheap father Zeus, Silva really has nothing to say about Rorschach. And after learning that the great wizard Jiying was targeting Rorschach, he directly started a struggle within the [Prison Court].

If Warden Nan had not protected the Great Wizard Jiying at that time, Silva would have been able to bring down the Great Wizard Jiying just that one time.

"If I don't come, you will be kidnapped." The short old man snorted coldly and said in a bad tone.

However, his anger was not directed at Rorschach. He was looking at the Scholar of the University of Beasts who was standing next to Rorschach.

Rorschach originally thought that Silva's attitude would make the Scholar of the University of Beasts feel ashamed, and he might even confront Silva head-on.

However, the reality was quite the opposite. When the scholar of the University of Beasts saw that the person coming was Silva, his frown immediately turned into a smile:
"Master Silva, this is a misunderstanding, this must be a misunderstanding!"

"What misunderstanding? I heard with my own ears that you were trying to poach my girl. You've become too powerful. You even dare to poach my girl!" Silva snorted coldly.

"Really? I just think that Rorschach's current position in the [Prison Court] is too low. Don't you think so?"

The scholar of the University of Beasts said slowly, "By the way, you are also a member of our High Tower Research Society. Rorschach is now like the signboard of our High Tower. If people knew that the genius scholar we cherish is just an apprentice jailer in the [Prison Court], how would others view the High Tower and you?"

When Rorschach heard this, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised!
Of course he understood what the Tower Research Institute meant.

All of them are top scholars in their respective fields, and they are basically the top powers in the wizarding world. For example, the dean of the Grey Tower Academy is a member of the High Tower Research Society.

But Rorschach never expected that his uncle Silva was also a member of the Tower Research Society!
If he had known about this relationship earlier, he wouldn't have been so cautious when joining the Tower. He could have just reported Silva's name.

"Well, what you said makes some sense."

After listening to the words of the scholar from the University of Beasts, Silva immediately looked thoughtful.

Because the Master of All Beasts was not making a sophistry, it was the truth. The fact that he could become the North Warden was closely related to his status as a master, and Rorschach was now a senior scholar, and in the near future he might even become the youngest master in the history of the [Tower of Omniscience]!
Is it appropriate for such a talented person to go to the Prison Court to be a trainee jailer?
"What do you think?" Silva looked at Rorschach.

"I still want to go back to the [Prison Court], but I have to wait until I finish the project at hand. Uncle, you should know that I am the one who has the greatest hope of completely perfecting the legendary realm." Rorschach said something that only Silva could understand. "If I succeed, it will be of great help to the entire wizarding world, far greater than the role I can play alone."

Upon hearing this, Silva indeed understood what Rorschach meant.

Zeus already had a lot of explorations into the legendary path, and from the lower legendary path announced by Rorschach, it can indeed be seen that he has a stronger talent and understanding than Zeus, so he was able to perfect it to the final version.

Therefore, Silva was not surprised when Rorschach said that he had the best hope of completely perfecting the path to the legendary realm.

He thought so too.

However, when Rorschach has completely perfected the path to the legendary realm, he will inevitably become the youngest scholar in the history of the [Tower of Omniscience]!
Just as the scholar of the University of Beasts said before, if someone with this status could only be an apprentice jailer in the [Prison Court], that would be too unreasonable.

What will [Prison Court] use to attract real talents in the future?

This is also the reason why Silva didn't mind after listening to the words of the scholar of the University of Beasts.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Then do as you wish. I will discuss it with them after I return. I will see what position I will assign to you when you come back. Anyway, it won't be an apprentice jailer."

Silva didn't say anything final, because this was definitely not something he could decide alone.

But what he was sure of was that as long as Rorschach was willing to return to the [Prison Court], he would definitely not have to go through any final assessment to become a regular employee.

"Yes." Rorschach nodded to show that he understood.

"Wan Beast, please step aside for a moment. I have some private matters to discuss with Rorschach." Silva suddenly said to the scholar Wan Beast.

The scholar of all beasts did not ask any more questions. He just nodded and left.

Rorschach's relationship with Silva is obviously special, and Silva is also a member of the Tower Research Society, so he doesn't need to worry about this.

After the Beast Master left, Silva looked at Rorschach with a serious expression and asked, "What's the matter with the mark on your body?"

Rorschach raised his hand, revealing the four-leaf clover in his hand: "This one?"

"That's the brand I gave him!" The bloody little toad, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interrupted.

"Who asked that?" Silva said unhappily, "Segura, if you're okay, you can come back with me when I'm done."

"No! I want to take a vacation!" protested the bloody little toad.

"Okay, okay, then I'll pretend I didn't see you." Silva was obviously familiar with Segura. After a brief exchange with him, he looked at Rorschach again, "I'm not talking about Segura's mark."

Rorschach was stunned when he heard this.

Because he couldn't remember who else had left a mark on him, but when Silva asked him in such a firm tone, it proved that Silva must have noticed something and would not ask this for no reason.

"I really don't remember... Wait!" Rorschach paused halfway through his words, because he suddenly realized what Silva was asking, "I think I know what the mark you are talking about is, uncle."

"Hmm?" Silva waited for the next words.

"That is the mark of the 'Star Throne'." Rorschach murmured.

"What?!" Silva was a little surprised when he heard this.

To him, the 'Nine Thrones' were not actually that far away, as there were several of them that he had dealt with more than once.

After all, he is one of the four wardens of the [Prison Court] and a member of the Tower Research Society.

And this is not all of his identities!
Among the six major wizard world groups, he has identities in four of them, and all of them are of extremely high level.

But the problem is that Luo Xia is just a junior who has just been promoted to Morning Star not long ago. Even if he is now a second-ring Morning Star, it doesn’t make much difference.

Given Rorschach's situation, how could he be targeted by the 'Star Throne'?
Rorschach naturally did not hide it. He told Segura about it, so there was nothing to hide from Silva.

After Silva finished listening, he murmured, "No wonder I felt something was wrong when I saw you last time. I thought it was my illusion, but I didn't expect it to be like this... But I think you are too optimistic. Segura's analysis is not completely unreasonable, but he doesn't understand the 'Star Throne'."

Silva's words made Rorschach feel nervous, and he couldn't help asking, "What happened to the Star Throne?"

"Although I have only met him once, from what I know about him, he never does meaningless things." Silva frowned and said, "If this experiment was initiated by another throne wizard, such as the 'Throne of Wisdom' in the Gray Tower, then it is indeed possible that it is as Segura analyzed."

"But Star Throne is different. If he starts an experiment, he will definitely have a clear goal in the end. It will never be as simple as just observing the experimental process and collecting some experimental data!"

"Quack?" The bloody little toad also understood what Silva meant and made a surprised cry.

"So uncle, what you mean is that even if I lead the Blue Water Star to win the Battle of the Hundred Domains, it doesn't mean everything will be safe." Luo Xia said in a deep voice.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it..." Silva realized that this topic was a bit too heavy for Rorschach, and changed the subject.

However, Rorschach understood that if the behavior style or personality of "Star Throne" was indeed as Silva said, then Silva was not worrying too much!
Seeing that Rorschach didn't say anything, Silva knew that Rorschach had figured out the key, so he stopped trying to comfort him and said:
"Actually, regardless of whether he has other purposes, we can actually make some preparations in advance at this stage. For example, I will help you finalize your identity at the [Prison Court] as soon as possible. As long as your identity is confirmed, you will be equivalent to the chief warden's man..."

"This identity will at least make him a little cautious. After all, our chief warden has a bad temper."

When Silva said this, it was obvious that he had great confidence in the chief warden of the Prison Court.

Rorschach naturally knew that the Chief Warden mentioned by Silva was the 'Prison Throne', one of the 'Nine Thrones'!
Like the 'Star Throne', he is also a Blazing Sun-level throne wizard!
"In addition, it would be safer if you could complete the path to the Legendary Realm before the Hundred Domains War begins." Silva continued, "The identity of our Chief Warden is indeed well known to everyone, but few people know that there is an incarnation of the 'Throne of Wisdom' in the High Tower Research Institute."

"Not many people even inside the Omniscient Tower know about this, because the 'Throne of Wisdom' does not want to reveal his identity. Even if he appears inside the tower, he only appears as a member of the tower research association."

"But in general, the Omniscient Tower is also very important in the eyes of the Throne of Wisdom. If you can become the youngest scholar in the history of the tower, then you will definitely attract the attention of the Throne of Wisdom. With his love for talent, he will definitely not easily see you get into trouble."

"In this way, you will have two more throne wizards as your backers. If the situation really develops in the worst direction, then these identities will become your ultimate life-saving trump cards!"

When Silva said this, his tone became much more confident.

The 'Star Throne' is indeed very purposeful in his actions, and he probably has some deeper calculations for the Replacers like Rorschach.

But if Rorschach really achieves a high status in both the [Prison Court] and the [Tower of Omniscience] as he planned, then no matter what the 'Star Throne' wants to do, it will have to consider whether it is worth it.

As the 'Nine Thrones', the other party will definitely not really be afraid of these identities. The main question is whether it is worth it.

It would be a waste of time to get into trouble with two throne wizards at the same time just for a small experiment.

The biggest characteristic of people with strong purpose like 'Star Throne' is that they are good at calculations and will not act on impulse.

Silva's arrangement was based on this point.

"I'll leave the [Prison Court] to you, uncle." Rorschach also figured out the interests involved and expressed his gratitude to Silva.

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Silva nodded, "But the legendary realm matters are up to you. I'm not particularly good at this, and I've already given my suggestions a long time ago. Well, you know."

Rorschach nodded in understanding.

He naturally knew that Silva was talking about Hughes, but it was not until this time that Rorschach finally made up his mind to ask:

"Uncle, my dad...what's going on?"
