Chapter 20: Do You Have to Be So Down-to-earth?

In a trance.

Su Xueqi found herself once again in the world in her dream that made her despair. She clearly remembered that she had just decided to take a chance and put her hand on Rorschach's hand. Why did she return here?

"He lied to me?"

An indescribable feeling of loss and discomfort came over me.

Even she herself didn't understand why she was so impulsive as to risk her life and property and chose to trust someone she had just met.

If you think about it carefully, there are many factors that prompted her to make this choice.

For example, the fear of the desperate world in her dreams, the touch of emotion that Rorschach had brought her before, and her intuition which had always been quite accurate.

In short, she finally chose to believe Rorschach.

But now it seems that she lost, and lost completely.

"why treat me like this……"

Su Xueqi's heart was filled with despair and unwillingness.

Because she is about to face the seemingly endless ordeal once again!

A big part of the reason why this world makes people so despair is that the time here has been stretched countless times. Maybe only a moment has passed in reality, but here it is possible that dozens or even hundreds of days have passed!

During this process, there will be a large amount of indescribable horrors that will continue to attack everything that appears here!
Although Su Xueqi, as the victim of the attack, will not actually die, all the negative sensations she will experience in the process are real!
This feeling is more than just pain.

If not for this, she wouldn't have run to Rorschach's tent in the middle of the night to seek help.

Just when Su Xueqi was already feeling hopeless, a familiar but aloof voice came from afar: "I said, you won't regret your decision -"

Su Xueqi suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to see a ball of dark red fire emerging from nothingness. At the same time, a slender figure covered with white bones appeared in the dark red fire, and the flames burned more violently with his appearance!
"Rorschach?" Su Xueqi called tentatively.

"I'm here to pick you up." The slender skeleton figure stretched out his hand.

Su Xueqi placed her hand on it as before, even though the slender figure covered in white bones looked extremely terrifying!
……

"So, that world is called Purgatory..." After gradually digesting some of the inherited memories passed on by Rorschach through the 'Master-Slave Brand', Su Xueqi finally understood what a terrible power she had been infected with!

At the same time, she also confirmed that Rorschach really did not lie to her.

As she has become the knight squire of Rorschach, the Knight of Purgatory, she is indeed dependent on Rorschach for life and death. As long as Rorschach is alive, she doesn't have to worry about her own death.

Of course, if Rorschach wants to resurrect her, he needs to do a lot of preparation.

For example, a body that can carry her soul, and some other auxiliary items needed for resurrection, but no matter what, she did gain a kind of disguised immortality, and the price was that everything she had no longer belonged to her, or no longer belonged only to herself.

On the other hand, she had only just learned that Rorschach could only have four attendants in total. From this perspective, Rorschach was willing to give up one position to save her who was contaminated with the aura of Purgatory. This was definitely a life-saving grace!
Even if she was contaminated with the aura of purgatory because of Rorschach, she didn't know any of this in the first place, so her death would have been in vain.

Rorschach could have pretended not to know, and no one could have said anything. But he still chose to take the initiative to show his cards, and even offered one of his few attendant positions.

If Su Xueqi initially thought that Luo Xia was taking advantage of someone's misfortune, she no longer has such an idea.

Even though her life and death were now in Rorschach's hands, she already owed Rorschach a life just because he had prevented her from being completely eroded by the aura of Purgatory. Even if Rorschach wanted to take it back, she would have nothing to say.

What's more, she also gained a disguised form of immortality, and the possibility that she would no longer be limited to the ordinary rock turtle bloodline in the future!
All I can say is that she won the bet this time!

"Would you mind please tell me about your situation on the Blue Water Planet?" Luo Xia's voice appeared in Su Xueqi's mind.

She knew that this was also one of the effects of the master-slave mark, allowing the two to communicate with each other through thoughts without being detected by outsiders.

The two had always communicated in a very obscure manner regarding the Substituter. Even if there was no third person around, they had never let their guard down.

Because they all knew that other issues were easy to deal with, but the identity of the replacement must never be heard by others.

Otherwise, the first person who wants to kill them will be the person they were closest to.

Now that the master-slave imprint exists, they can naturally communicate openly about the matters concerning the Substitute, without having to play tricks.

"Of course." Su Xueqi did not avoid the topic and replied with her mind, "My real name is Su Xueqi, I am from Dayan, and I am affiliated with the international intelligence organization 'Ghost Pushing the Mill'. I am now the third person in charge of the Tianbei branch..."

Su Xueqi realized that her future was firmly tied to Rorschach, so she no longer concealed anything and told Rorschach everything about her situation on the Blue Water Star.

However, the more Rorschach listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.

It was not until Su Xueqi introduced in detail the international intelligence organization behind her called "Ghost Pushing the Mill" that Rorschach finally realized that something was wrong!

"Do you know [GTM Information Consulting Company]?" Rorschach asked again with his mind.

Su Xueqi was immediately surprised: "I didn't expect that you knew the name of our organization, boss. Have you dealt with us before?"

Su Xueqi called Luo Xia "boss" at his own request, because Su Xueqi originally intended to call him "master".

But Rorschach felt that it sounded a bit awkward, so he asked her to call him boss.

However, these are not what Rorschach cares about.

After getting Su Xueqi's confirmation, Rorschach really felt like he had fucked a Husky!
What the hell is the name on the table? !

To be honest, he had more than just dealt with her. He even took a day off sick from the company just now!

He had always thought that the GTM in front of the company name was an abbreviation of a certain English name. So it was an abbreviation of the pinyin of "鬼推摩" (ghost pushes the mill)?
Do you have to be so down to earth?

At this moment, Rorschach's mood was extremely complicated.

Because he also figured out another thing, which was why he felt the name Su Xueqi looked familiar when he first saw it.
