Chapter 479 "I" and the Big Other

Red Rorschach did not disappear, but he became angry.

Now the connection between the ego and him is severed, and they no longer form a mirror relationship. In other words, the change that Red Robe Rorschach has been avoiding has occurred irreversibly.

"Why do this? Why give up your ability to cast spells?" Red Robe Xia's face turned dark.

Luo Xia no longer felt any pain at this time, and said easily: "Here, whether it is Luo Xia, a mid-level spellcaster or an ordinary person with no ability, what difference does it make to you who fights at home and calls yourself a great wizard? In your words, they are all ants and monkeys.

"And by doing this, I first confirmed one thing: no matter what my appearance or body is, or whether I have magical abilities or not, I am still me. And you are not me."

Dangerous lightning condensed in the palm of the red-robed Xia's hand. For Luo Xia, an ordinary person at this time, he was just a fragile and wandering soul and had no power to resist.

As long as Red Robe Xia thought about it, he could easily wipe him out, and he was indeed planning to do so at this time: "Unfortunately, I am still alive and well. See, I didn't lie to you. You are not a real body, and I don't have to rely on you to exist."

Facing the murderous red-robed Rorschach, the main body still narrated calmly: "While confirming the first thing, I am betting on the second thing - the one chosen by the Tree of Law is me, as only 'Rorschach' can enter the original layer, as I have so many special features, I have a panel.
"I don't need to prove to anyone that I am me, but from the beginning you have been emphasizing this in my eyes, begging for my recognition.

"Pitiful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tentacles of the Tree of Law that were linked to the "Archmage" emerged and separated from the red-robed spirit, and then the light gathered on the black-haired body, even though he was not in the image of the other world at this time, and had no ability to cast spells.

This was something the red-robed spirit had never expected. He also identified himself as Rorschach and had never considered the current situation or thought that he would lose the recognition of the Tree of Law.

"As expected, the Tree of Law has always been bound to me, and the reason you can control it is only because you were once my mirror image and have always been at the border. But now it is not the case. No, you did not belong to the 'self' from the beginning. You were more like a thief who borrowed my identity to gain authority."

The offense and defense switched instantly, Rorschach acted with the appearance of his previous life and the spellcasting ability of his present life. The link of the Tree of Law was completely connected to him, and the red-robed Rorschach seemed to have become an empty shell with only a good appearance.

"And if you were really me, you should always remember that villains die because they talk too much!"

Rorschach did not kill the guy who had been torturing him for such a long time. He drove the Tree of Law to continuously break through and expand. The branches and leaves of the Tree of Law that had been used to analyze the ancient sages had developed again. Now its underground roots continued to expand, covering the entire space of the border area from top to bottom and expanding outward.

If Feuerbach was standing by, he would definitely be shocked. Rorschach's control over this space and the Tree of Law has reached the pinnacle, and he is like the master of a world. Unlike Granol, a "secondary plane discoverer", Rorschach does not need to be canonized or recognized. The border is definitely completely under his control.

The "virtual coordinates" of the border began to shift, moving towards the original layer of the entire world, and getting closer and closer to each other.

One system represents Rorschach, whose roots are mixed into the order of another world; the other is a field that embodies the magical order of the entire world. Rorschach doesn't know what will happen if they come into contact with each other, but he is sure that something catastrophic will happen, and that the Supreme Heaven will not sit idly by and will get a response.

In the endless sky, the eyes outlined by the infinite starlight began to flicker, and then closed. As the eyes closed, the red robe Rorschach lost the basis of his existence and began to dissipate.

“How did you know?” These were its last words.

Finally, the pure artificial soul was dismembered by the tentacles of the Tree of Law and supplemented into Rorschach's spirit body. In fact, it supplemented the power that should have belonged to him. Rorschach gradually regained his appearance in this world and his soul strength was comparable to or even far exceeded that of the great wizard. There was also a part of memory and knowledge that belonged to the ancient sage. He thought about it and did not accept it. Anyway, thanks to the efforts of Red Robe Rorschach, the ancient sage's spells had been recorded into the Tree of Law to generate nodes and links.

The Transmutation Dust gathered and took shape, combining with the knowledge and memory of the ancient sages to transform into a smiling old man: "Aren't you afraid that another tower spirit will appear and turn against its master?"

".No. Because you rely on me to exist. You are the product of my gaze and imagination. Although you are not a part of me, you exist because I think of you." Just like Red Robe Rorschach relies on the gaze of the eyes of the stars on Rorschach to exist.

This ancient sage really has no soul. If Rorschach stops his imagination, it will be restored to the memories stored in the Tree of Law. Rorschach simply activates these memories and presents them in the form of a person.

The Ancient Sage nodded. "Yes, so you realized the true nature of the Rorschach. If it were someone else, they would never have thought of the generation mechanism of the Mirror Image."

"I guessed." Rorschach shook his head: "I can only be sure that it is related to the great existence of the Supreme Heaven, and you are also part of my experiment, and you have successfully verified my guess."

When Rorschach ascended to outer space for the first time and left the material world, he looked into the eyes of a pair of infinite star rays. And when he entered the original layer and the highest sky again, he was sure that whether those eyes were looking at him or not, they were staring at him.

The existence of Red Robe Rorschach is that pair of eyes, created by the great will in the Supreme Heaven. The essence of Red Robe Rorschach is "Rorschach in the eyes of the Great Being", which becomes a real existence through the stripped artificial soul. The ancient sages knew that the Supreme God had such power - what is seen is reality, and reality is what is seen. Red Robe Rorschach also realized this when he analyzed the knowledge of the sages.

If the original body is erased, the Great Will will not disappear, and therefore he will not disappear either. He will just have to rely on the Supreme God forever to maintain himself, so unless it is absolutely necessary, he is unwilling to break the mirror relationship with the original body, but tries to reverse it - he wants to go to the "outside of the mirror", that is, to occupy a dominant position and become "Rorschach's self".

Rorschach did not know the above details. His plots were all based on an assumption that his uniqueness and gifts all came from a higher being, and that He would ultimately choose himself rather than the mirror image produced from the gaze of the big Other.

He didn't even understand the nature of the mirror image. Rorschach just firmly believed that the soul was not incomplete when separated, and the situation that Red Robe Rorschach claimed did not happen.

His assumption was correct.

Rorschach first used the [Reversal Ray] on himself, restoring himself to his magic-free predecessor to destroy the mirror structure and deny that thing was "me".

Red Robe Rorschach did not disappear, even though the two sides were no longer mirror images of each other, so Rorschach used the entire Tree of Law and the border as a "battering ram" to attack the original layer. This was the only way he could think of to attract the attention of the Great Will. Rorschach thought that he could not threaten the other party, but was just saying: Hey, I noticed that you were behind this!
Only He can completely destroy Red Robe Rorschach, just as He is the biggest suspect in the creation of this scam.

It's like a rogue software. After uninstalling it, you have to delete a lot of registry entries and files.
"What if the Great Will doesn't choose you?" The pseudo-ancient sage was still a little puzzled. His memories kept emerging, and after summarizing, he concluded that people who were as bold and adventurous as Rorschach were definitely a minority, especially among spellcasters.

"Then I'm dead, and I've been dead for a long time." Rorschach shrugged. "Although I don't want to admit it, just like Red Robe Rorschach doesn't want to break away from my connection and rely entirely on others. If there were no panel and the choice of the Tree of Law, I wouldn't be here today. Although it is still uncertain whether the Giver and the Gazer are both the great will of the Supreme Heaven.

"So I can only go all in. If I bet right, I can solve this problem. If I bet wrong, my fate will be wiped out regardless of whether I bet or not."

I will take all the benefits, but I won't do it if they want to create a fake person to replace me. Of course, it's not pleasant to be chosen, but Rorschach can't even see the full picture of that great being now, so he can only bear it for now.

The ancient sage was stunned for a while, not because of Rorschach's words, but because the computing core was constantly searching the sage's memory and merging it with this image, organizing it into words. So after a while, the old man spoke: "Based on my experience, this is a test. Congratulations on passing, Master Rorschach."
