Start with the Wizarding World

Chapter 173 The Blood Knights are established... What is the Divine Realm!
"The God of Gluttony and the Great Wizard of Demonic Eyes? If it's them, you really don't have to worry about any conspiracy. They are indeed my friends." After listening to Mihawk's recollections of the thrilling encounters along the way, Rorschach chuckled.

Although this was indeed a coincidence, Rorschach was certainly no stranger to these two people.

The former is the incarnation of the great scholar, while the latter is the incarnation of Big Eyes. They are indeed not the kind of people who would embarrass him for such a small matter.

He actually didn't stay in the [Tower of Omniscience] for a long time, and there were only a few scholars he was familiar with, and the God-level scholar was one of them.

As for the big eyeball, since the other party knows that the so-called legendary light and legendary scholar are the 'incarnation of the source', he will naturally give him a favor.

As long as his true identity is not exposed, Big Eyes and the others can basically be regarded as half of his subordinates and there is nothing to worry about.

"I see." Mihawk also breathed a sigh of relief.

His trip was full of ups and downs.

Even though he finally successfully arrived at the Blood Prison World Group, came to the Eighteenth Blood Prison, and met Rorschach, he still had a feeling of unreality in his heart.

I always wonder if those two terrifying beings have any plans.

So the first moment he met Rorschach, he told Rorschach everything about those two terrifying beings, without omitting anything.

He finally felt relieved until Rorschach told him not to worry.

"On my own behalf, I welcome you. I believe you will not regret your decision." Rorschach said with a smile, "Well, go and rest first. In a few days, when most people have arrived, there will be a ceremony to establish the Blood Knights. We will make arrangements then."

"Understood." Mihawk didn't ask any more questions.

He naturally knew that there must be many people who had not arrived yet.

When he arrived at the Eighteenth Blood Prison, although some blood knights had already arrived, the total number was only about two thousand.

This is definitely still a big gap from the final number.

As for the founding ceremony of the [Blood Knights], he was also quite looking forward to it, because he finally had the opportunity to meet the blood knights from various worlds!
Although there were some blood knights in Fangbone City, most of them were not on the same level as him, or were simply his disciples.

There is actually nothing to communicate with these people.

But it is different now, because just from the situation after he arrived, he has sensed at least several blood knights of the same level!
You know, the connection between blood knights is much more sensitive than that between wizards!

As long as they didn't hide it deliberately, they could roughly sense each other's strength. And with his level of upper legend, he could actually sense that there was more than one blood knight who was no less powerful than himself. This made him suddenly have an inexplicable sense of anticipation!
……

"Which legend is this?" Rorschach asked Su Xueqi after Mihawk left.

"If I'm not counted, it's already ninth." Su Xueqi replied.

"That's probably still a long way to go. If you're not counted, there are seven upper legends in the Blood Prison world group alone. Even if there aren't as many upper legends in the other five world groups, there should be at least twenty of them added up, right?" Rorschach analyzed after roughly estimating the number.

"Indeed." Su Xueqi nodded in agreement.

By now, all the legendary knights from the Blood Prison world group who should have arrived should have basically arrived, and there are as many as seven upper-level legends alone!

Among the upper legends who arrived at the Eighteenth Blood Prison at this time, apart from those from the Blood Prison world group, there were only two from other world groups.

Mihawk is the second foreign superior legend besides the seven local superior legends, and the other one actually also comes from the Abyss World Group.

Among the six wizard world groups, the Abyss World Group is the closest to the Blood Hell World Group after all, so it is not surprising that it would come earlier.

However, this is obviously far from the final number.

……

After successfully arriving at the 18th Blood Prison, Mihawk quickly settled down with his two disciples, waiting for the arrival of more Blood Knights.

In the process, he also made several new friends.

As fellow bloodline knights, they must have a lot in common. From their own experiences to their training experiences, there is so much to talk about.

Since Rorschach had already arranged a special garrison area for the [Blood Knights] in advance, after Mihawk and the others arrived, they were directly arranged in an area that only upper-level legends were qualified to occupy.

Therefore, Mihawk's neighbors were all upper legends without exception, and he was more familiar with the upper legend named 'Demacia' who lived in the house on his left, and they had sparred several times.

Although they were just brief attacks and no real action was taken, it was enough for him to feel that Demacia's strength was not inferior to his.

After getting to know each other, he also learned that Demacia was a high-ranking legend from the Temple World Group, and that the blood they had fused was the bloodline of the 'Unicorn of Light'.

The 'Unicorn of Light' was also a top sacred beast in ancient times, and the strength of its bloodline was no less than the 'Abyss Nightmare' bloodline that he merged with!
Although the Abyss World Group and the Temple World Group have always been incompatible, their attributes are one light and one dark, which are exactly opposites.

But this did not affect the friendship between the two parties at all. Instead, they soon became good friends who could talk about anything.

Mihawk's personality is rather cold, not in a cool way, but he just doesn't like to talk much.

Even when faced with his disciples' betrayal, he didn't have much to say, and it was even more so at other times.

But Demacia is just the opposite of him. As long as there are people around, it is difficult for them to stop talking.

On this day, Demacia excitedly knocked on Mihawk's door early in the morning. After Bernoulli opened the door, he quickly walked into the house:
"Have you heard? The leader seems to have arranged the founding ceremony of the Blood Knights. It should be officially held within a week."

"Oh?" Mihawk couldn't help but feel a little excited when he heard that.

Because he understood that this was destined to become one of the major events that would go down in history, and how far the impact of this history would go would depend on how far these pioneers of the Blood Knights could ultimately go.

The total number of legendary knights who have arrived at the Eighteenth Blood Prison has now exceeded five thousand!
Among them, there are twenty-nine upper-level legends alone!
If we add the unfathomable Ms. Su beside the leader, there will be a total of thirty upper legends!

However, even though Mihawk himself is one of the thirty upper legends, there is still a sense of unreality!
Once upon a time, just being able to fight against a ring of Morning Stars was already an incredible thing for the Blood Knights.

They have to pay various prices, including but not limited to becoming the wizards' attendants, servants, experimental subjects, etc., to get this opportunity.

To be fair, he is actually very lucky.

Because he saved the grandson of the Great Wizard Tooth Bone, the Great Wizard Tooth Bone gave him a chance to be a servant and got a chance to go further.

Later on, the Great Wizard Fangbone did not keep the Legendary Road to himself and transferred all available public roads to him.

If not, he wouldn't have been able to get to where he is today in such a short time.

Of course he was grateful to the Great Wizard Tooth Bone.

If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely repay the other party double.

But he does not think that the blood knights are no less powerful than the wizards because they were indeed hopeless in the past.

Even if he really had the capital to fight against the First Ring Morning Star, he was not on the same level in other aspects, whether it was lifespan or future. But now... he truly felt the arrival of the dawn!
"Don't just sit there like an idiot. Let's go and find out what's going on." Demacia walked up to Mihawk and dragged him out.

Bernoulli and Jane, who were standing by, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to when they saw this scene, because they had long been accustomed to the way their teacher got along with this Demacia senior. It can only be said that there is always someone better.

……

Three days later, the establishment ceremony of [Blood Knight] officially began!
Looking at the densely packed crowd of more than 5,000 legendary knights, Rorschach began his speech: "I'm sure you all know the purpose of gathering you here today, so I won't go into details."

"Next, I have three main things to explain one by one."

"The first thing, and what many of you are most concerned about, can be summed up in four words... What is the Divine Realm?"

As soon as Rorschach said this, the more than 5,000 legendary knights present fell silent instantly!
Because this is indeed what many of them are most concerned about, especially the twenty-nine upper legends, who are undoubtedly the most concerned about this matter.

Although Rorschach had previously announced some of his ideas and explorations on the road to the divine realm through the [Tower of Omniscience], he had not announced the complete method of advancement, and this was exactly the foreshadowing he laid for the establishment of the [Blood Knights]!
Now that the [Blood Knights] are established, he naturally wants to show off his skills.

After hearing what Rorschach said, the legendary knights below also realized what he was going to do.

Everyone immediately stared at Rorschach intently, not daring to be distracted in the slightest, for fear of missing out on any key information.

"This is what is called the Divine Realm!"

Rorschach suddenly took a step forward, and the whole person walked directly into the void. After he took a step forward, a circle of gray light suddenly appeared under his feet, spreading in all directions!
In just a moment, everyone felt that everything around them had been covered by a layer of gray field, and they had no power to resist at all!

"My will!"

“That is God’s will!”

“Transform the spirit into a domain!”

“This is the divine realm!”

"Now, do you understand what the divine realm is?"

When Rorschach walked to mid-air, his divine domain had already covered the limit of what everyone present could sense, and no more, no less!

Moreover, in order to let everyone present feel the power of the divine domain, he suppressed everyone in place with his own divine domain!
In his divine domain, the more than 5,000 legendary knights present felt as if they were being pressed down by a mountain, unable to even move a finger!

But Rorschach didn't overdo it, lest it become too exaggerated.

After all, even if a normal bloodline knight really breaks through the divine realm and becomes a lower-level divine knight, it is impossible for him to reach his level.

Just think about it, is it possible for a four-ring Moon Wizard to suppress thousands of Morning Star Wizards at the same time?
Moreover, there are nearly thirty Three-Ring Morning Stars among them!

Even the most advanced four-ring moon star would find it difficult to achieve this.

Rorschach was able to do this, on the one hand, because the divine domain itself did have some unique features. When dealing with opponents who were weaker than himself, the suppression effect was not greatly affected by numbers, as long as it was not too exaggerated.

On the other hand, of course it’s because he is the Purgatory Knight!

Ever since he entered the divine realm, his control over the laws of purgatory has been further enhanced, and even his divine realm possesses some of the power of purgatory!

As his power grows stronger, his divine domain is destined to become more and more like purgatory. Maybe one day it will really be like purgatory!
what is this concept?

You know, even the God of Fun, who is ranked among the most powerful gods, is afraid that he can't run fast enough when facing Purgatory.

The power of Purgatory is self-evident.

At the moment, these more than 5,000 legendary knights naturally knew nothing about Purgatory. All they could see was the horrifying scene just now!
The leader Luo Xia suppressed everyone with his own strength and divine domain!

They were not afraid of this, but were very excited!
Because the stronger Rorschach's performance is, the greater the potential of the Road to the Divine Realm. Of course, they hope that Rorschach can become as strong as possible!

"Like I said, I certainly hope that all the Blood Knights can go further, but I have no obligation to make the path I have worked so hard to open up public to everyone for free. This is also the reason why I created the [Blood Knights]."

Rorschach was in mid-air, looking down at everyone from a high position. "I will not force anyone to join the Blood Knights, or force anyone to obey me completely after joining. But if you want to obtain my results, you must be qualified, and I will make sure that no one can spread them outside again." "If anyone is dissatisfied with this, you can leave now. From now on, everyone will move forward on their own. I hope you can have a smooth journey."

After Rorschach finished speaking, he waited quietly for a moment.

However, of course no one would leave at this time, because if they really did not agree with this matter, they would not have come all the way here.

Since they have come from thousands of miles away, and many of them have even risked their lives, they naturally don't care about the slightest restriction.

"Very good, then I will temporarily assume that everyone present is willing to join the Blood Knights. I can also promise you here that anyone who joins the Blood Knights can apply to me for the method to enter the Divine Realm when you reach the upper legendary level. There are no additional conditions."

Luo Xia had already walked down from the sky step by step and returned to the previous ceremony platform. He pondered and said, "Then now, all the upper legends, please come up. I will fulfill my promise and teach you the first step on the road to the divine realm."

Upon hearing this, the twenty-nine upper legends all came to the ceremony platform in a flash, each of them unable to hide the excitement on their face!
Rorschach glanced at them and suddenly laughed: "Four of you are here with special purposes."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of these twenty-nine upper legends all changed slightly!
Many people immediately glanced at the people around them vigilantly, as if trying to find anyone with bad intentions.

However, it is impossible to tell anything just by observing.

If Rorschach didn't have the True Prison Eyes, he might not have been able to see the clues. After all, as a high-level legendary, it is impossible for him to not have even this little cunning.

Besides, those four people dared not reveal the slightest flaw at this moment. They could fully imagine what kind of storm they would face once they were discovered.

There is no need for the leader Rorschach to do it himself, the other upper legends can beat them to death, and the methods must be extremely cruel!
"Please tell me which four people they are!" Mihawk said coldly, "The leader has given a new life to all the knights. Under such circumstances, there are still people who dare to plot against the leader... If I catch this black sheep, I promise to make him regret coming into this world!"

Although Mihawk was usually a man of few words, his words immediately won the unanimous approval of the other upper legends around him.

Even the more than 5,000 legendary knights in the audience were excited at this moment, wishing they could smash the four men into pulp with one punch each!

"I believe you all have your own difficulties. As a fellow Blood Knight, I don't want to kill you all, but I hate being betrayed the most. So I have a compromise plan. It's up to you to choose."

Rorschach said slowly, "I will count down to three. When I finish, those who have problems will step forward. I can give you a chance to reform. As long as you tell me your original purpose and make a clean break with the past, I can still treat you equally."

"Of course, you can also choose to leave directly. I promise you on my personal reputation that I will not embarrass you. Just don't appear in front of me again in the future... But!"

"If after I count down to three, some of you don't step forward on your own initiative and try to sneak through and lurk in the Blood Riders, then there's nothing to say, because you are the ones who took the initiative to provoke me!"

"I will never show mercy to my enemies!"

When Rorschach said this, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, but soon turned into a smile again and asked:
"What do you think of my method? Is it not excessive?"

"It's not too much. It should be said that it is already very merciful. If I were your leader, I would not give them the opportunity to choose this time!" Mihawk said coldly.

The others also said that it was indeed not excessive, and some even asked Rorschach to be stricter and not let those with bad intentions go.

However, Rorschach shook his head and said, "Now that I have said it, I will not change it easily. So... let's get started."

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

When Rorschach finished the countdown, three people took a step forward.

It was not until this moment that Mihawk was extremely shocked to find that among these three people there was Demacia, who had been inseparable from him recently!

"Demacia, you..." Mihawk looked incredulous.

"Sorry to disappoint you." Demacia said to Mihawk with a guilty look on his face.

It was only then that the others finally confirmed that there really were so many evil-minded people among them, and they all looked at the three people with murderous intent!

Among the three people who took the initiative to step forward, in addition to Demacia from the Temple World Group, there is also a top legend named 'Robert' from the Ark World Group, and a top legend named 'Benedict' from the Star Sea World Group.

Facing the murderous gazes of the remaining twenty-odd upper legends, the three of them felt like thorns in their backs and did not dare to move at all!
"Very good, I am willing to give you three a chance, so now tell me your choice... leave now, or tell us why you are here and cut off all ties with the past?" Rorschach's expression was very calm, without any surprise at all.

"I choose to leave."

The upper legend named Robert from the Ark World Group said calmly, "But I am willing to tell you why I am here. Although I am indeed here to investigate the situation, I have no ill will towards you."

"There's no rush yet."

Rorschach nodded, stopped Robert who was about to continue speaking, and then looked at Demacia and Benedict, "What about you two?"

"I want to stay." Demacia said firmly.

"Me too," Benedict said.

"Very good. I will wait for you to tell me your purpose and the story behind it... But before that, there is another friend who is not very honest. I will feel better only after I deal with him."

When Rorschach said this, his eyes had already turned to the second person on the far left, a middle-aged man who looked honest, named "Ross".

He is originally from the Blood Prison World Group, and is one of the earliest upper legends to arrive!

During this period of time, he has become familiar with many people, and he always gives people the impression of being a very low-key and peaceful person.

However, everything he showed was meaningless to Rorschach, because in Rorschach's eyes, he had no secrets at all.

"Will you continue to struggle, Royce?" Rorschach said calmly.

"Can you tell me where I showed my weakness?" Ross's expression was also very calm, and he did not have any intention of struggling.

When Rorschach called out his name, he no longer had any hope, because Rorschach's identity was the eighteenth prison lord!

As long as Rorschach determined that there was something wrong with him, there would be a way to make him confess honestly. There was no point in struggling.

He didn't take the initiative to stand up at first, but he just wondered if Rorschach was trying to trick him.

But now he understood that Rorschach really wasn't playing psychological warfare.

Including the three people who just stepped forward, there are exactly four people with problems. Rorschach really had seen through everything a long time ago!
"No." Rorschach just rejected him coldly.

"What if I'm willing to exchange my background and purpose?" Knowing that he was going to die, Royce still wanted to die with a clear conscience.

"You mean the relationship between you and Jiying?" Luo Xia sneered, "You don't really think that I need you to tell me your origins, do you? You have no secrets in front of me, understand?"

Yes, Ross is the man of the Great Wizard Jiying!

This traitor, who was the former Speaker of the [Parliament of Evil] but eventually betrayed the wizarding world and caused the death of the former 11th Lord of the Prison, Wheeler, obviously has not forgotten who indirectly led him to this point.

Although everything stems from his aggressiveness, Rorschach is just passively protecting himself.

But in the eyes of a man like him, there is no such thing as reason.

It was obvious that Ross was one of the hidden players he left in the wizarding world. This time he came here definitely to let Ross lurk in the [Blood Knights].

Once given the chance, the Great Shadow Wizard will show his fangs!

When Ross heard this, he realized that he no longer had any bargaining chips and wanted to end his life immediately.

But how could Rorschach give him this opportunity?

Don't forget, he is still in Rorschach's divine domain at this time!
Although Rorschach has returned to the ground, he has not taken back his divine domain. He simply no longer uses it to suppress everyone.

At this moment, Rorschach only had a thought and Ross was unable to move.

Su Xueqi had already walked towards Ross at this time, grabbed his hand and dragged him away. It was obvious what would happen to him afterwards.

After seeing what happened to Roth, the three people from Demacia realized that Rorschach might not be unaware of their origins and intentions.

Let them speak for themselves, I just want to give them a chance.

Whether they can seize this opportunity depends entirely on themselves.

So the three of them quickly explained their situations.

Robert is the simplest. He comes from a force in the Ark World Group called [Hex Group]. The purpose of his coming here is simply because [Hex Group] also has its own system and routines.

Combining the products of the technological side with those of the knight side can also allow them to exert combat power that is no less than that of Morning Star or even Moonlight!

However, Hex Group does not have a good way to extend lifespan, and the results achieved are very limited.

The legendary road revealed by Rorschach gave them great inspiration, so they also wanted to get the method to step into the realm of gods.

Robert's father is the boss of Hex Group.

Of course, his value is not that high, because he is just a product mass-produced by his father using his own genes.

It's just that he was considered the best among them, so he received some attention.

He didn't want to stay because he didn't care about his own strength. The purpose of his existence was to gain his father's recognition.

If he cannot gain recognition, he would rather destroy himself.

As for telling Rorschach the purpose of his visit, he also wanted to ask Rorschach whether he was willing to reach some cooperation with [Hex Corporation].

[Hex Corporation] is willing to pay a high price in exchange for the method to enter the divine realm.

However, Rorschach was not interested in this at all, because he had everything he needed right now, and what he lacked was something that Hextech Corporation could not give him, so any cooperation was doomed to be impossible.

Robert did not show any dissatisfaction with this and left after the communication.

During this period, some of the remaining upper legends suggested that Rorschach should keep him and not let him go, but Rorschach did not break his promise.

Compared to his reputation, Robert's life was nothing.

Besides, he actually had some ideas about the Hex Group because some of the research mentioned by Robert aroused his interest.

But that is definitely not something that will happen in the near future, as he doesn't have time to go to the Ark World Group right now.
