"Rorschach?"
That's right. Only Rorschach, who had disappeared without a trace ever since the incident, appeared at the door at this time.
How could they possibly forget about Rorschach's ability, the Glory Scroll, who had once cooperated with him? It was just that nobody had been able to find him since he had suddenly disappeared.
Also, Rorschach's Honesty talent, which was very useful for detecting lies, might not be able to deal with the current situation.
But right now, Rorschach's situation was rather bad.
His black tights indicated that he had just come off his demonic armor. There were bloodstains on his right hand, left shoulder, and right knee. His golden hair was filled with a burnt smell. Even his soft golden hair seemed to have been scalded and curled.
A pilot who had just gotten out of his magic armor was covered in injuries. Either he had crazily abandoned his mecha and charged forward, or his mecha had been directly destroyed in battle. This meant that the intensity of the battle was rather high.
Considering Lei Ji's current natural environment and the fact that he had managed to return alive from the battlefield without the protection of his mecha, many people would have to reevaluate his combat strength.
However, Rorschach didn't care about other people's gazes. He walked straight towards Hanks, who was currently being interrogated.
Hanks was pleasantly surprised the moment he saw Rorschach. He knew that since Rorschach was here, perhaps he wouldn't have to die.
"Don't move."
Roland's youthful voice seemed to have some magical power, causing the anxious atmosphere to instantly calm down.
Silver light flashed in the Gold Elf's eyes. The supernatural brilliance was just like the brilliance of diamonds. Anyone who looked into his eyes would feel as if they were being seen through.
This was completely different from the passive abilities recorded in the records. Had he been hiding something before? Everyone's doubts were instantly resolved and seen through.
"I met a slightly troublesome opponent on the battlefield. My innate ability was stimulated and forcefully evolved."
If this answer had come from anyone else, it would have been taken as empty words. Everyone knew that it was incredibly difficult to awaken and evolve one's innate ability. If one could evolve one's innate ability just by taking a stroll on the battlefield, what was the point of training so hard?
But since it was Rorschach who said it … if there was no qualitative change in his abilities, then it must be true.
Now, it was everyone's turn to be very interested in what he had encountered. What kind of opponent could force him to this point, and what kind of opponent could force him to advance on the battlefield?
After all, the current Rorschach was no longer a nobody who had just arrived in Aishi five years ago. Back then, the Ghost in the Fog who had a perfect score of 0.1 points in actual combat was now one of the city's signboards.
"Don't move!"
It was the same words, but this time, there was a hint of anger.
Everyone looked at Rorschach, but they could see the direction of his anger. It seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Hanks. Could it be that the Ratman was up to something? Seeing Rorschach arrive, what was he planning to do? Was there really something wrong with him?
"… Operation? Look at me … "
The Ratman's calm mind was shaken again. He had a vague feeling that something bad had happened.
"I said, don't move!"
This time, Rorschach's anger transformed into a tangible wave. The entire world instantly turned blood-red, as if everything was painted with blood. The next instant, everything returned to normal … but there was one thing that wasn't normal at all.
"I didn't move …"
Hanks muttered in a low voice, filled with confusion. However, everyone else understood what Rorschach meant by "not moving".
Hanks had a confused expression. Where his eyes should have been, there were only two empty holes.
Blood kept flowing out from the empty holes. There was already a puddle of blood under the chair he was sitting on. However, the elite Ratman was still confused. It was as if he hadn't noticed anything, as if he was perfectly fine.
Judging from the situation, the Ratman had been bleeding for quite some time already. If it wasn't that everyone was under an illusion now, then it was that everyone had been under an illusion before. And, this illusion had been going on for quite some time already.
This was rather ridiculous. After all, there were higher-ups from even larger churches present. In fact, there were even several Gods who were watching this scene.
"Don't move!"
This time, everyone noticed what Rorschach was referring to. He wasn't referring to Hanks' actions. Instead, he was referring to the object under Hanks' feet.
"Urgh!"
A young priestess reflexively vomited the moment she saw it.
There were several small white balls that seemed to be rolling around in the blood pool on the ground.
They were just like happy elementary school students in a swimming pool on a summer day, rolling around and playing around in the blood pool.
That's right, they were all eyeballs. However, they had small hands and feet that kept opening and closing. The main eyes on their bodies were already living creatures.
Two of the eyeballs had completely black pupils, which was a characteristic of ratmen. As for the others, they were obviously human.
That's right, there were still multiple of them. At this moment, everyone noticed that Hanks wasn't the only one who was silently bleeding without realizing it.
The other two interrogators in the room were also staring blankly at Rorschach. Blood was constantly flowing out of their empty eyes. Their eyeballs were "playing with water" with their partners.
Some of the eyeballs were even holding small blood-stained scissors, blood chains, and wooden awls. These torture instruments were probably not in this room. Everyone also noticed that there were at least a dozen eyeballs in this group, but there were only three "Unseen" in the room.
The bloodstains extended all the way out from under the door. The bloody footprints made everyone's scalps tingle. They immediately touched their eyes to make sure that they were still there.
"Don't move!"
Using words to strengthen his will, Rorschach's silver eyes locked onto these troublesome little things. At this moment, he could only smile bitterly.
"Gentlemen, there's one piece of bad news and two pieces of even worse news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Isn't this all bad news? How can you talk like that?
At this moment, Rorschach wasn't in the mood to retort or listen to retort. Without waiting for a response, he directly continued.
"The bad news is that the Eye of Wisdom is much more dangerous than we thought. Our spies have probably been fooled. The even worse news is that I still don't know how long we've been fooled. "
What does that mean? Everyone was stunned at first, then suddenly understood. Following that, their expressions changed drastically, each different from the last.
"Yes, that's what it means. We don't know how many people around us have become the other party's eyes. They might not even know it themselves. Moreover, since they can deceive our vision like this, how many people can discover that the cultists are right in front of us? "
As if thinking of something, Rorschach paused for a moment, but his voice became louder.
"Gentlemen, we were all wrong. We underestimated the Eye of Wisdom. We even focused mainly on economic development and internal strife. Just thinking about how much of it was our original intention and how much was induced by others makes me shudder."
The people around us might have been replaced. The Evil God's seed was right in front of us, but we didn't know about it. Fear? Panic? I'm afraid it's all of them.
"These three pieces of bad news are indeed quite bad …"
The first to speak was Phelps. This wasn't the first time the veteran priest had encountered an Evil God. He had even been wiped out a few times. At least now, they weren't in a desperate situation.
"Three?"
Rorschach's expression became even more strange.
