"… What will come, will come."
Even if he was mentally prepared, even if he hoped that all of this wouldn't happen, there were some things that would come faster the more you wished it wouldn't happen. The Seymour people of Cape Town used the most direct method to express their attitude towards their new neighbors — war.
What he saw was a series of tents and simple fortifications that formed the frontline camp of the Horned Elephant tribe.
Giant steel beasts and riders stood side by side, while floating in the air were the floating battleships that belonged to the Aishi People.
Magic armor, knights, military formations, and servants. Although they still looked simple and mixed, there were no changes at first glance. For Rorschach who had never experienced war, this was probably a scene of tens of thousands of people.
The only thing worth rejoicing about was that this war hadn't really started yet.
But from the looks of the Seymour army, if they weren't here for a group excursion, then it was only a matter of time before everything happened.
Rorschach also knew that from a certain point of view, this was definitely going to happen.
These days, all the churches in the city were madly expanding, and they were also making equipment for this scene. If Vila Nova Dônia wanted to gain a foothold in this wasteland, then it naturally had to prove its strength.
The naive idea of expecting the Horned Elephant tribe to retreat after being attacked seemed increasingly unrealistic as the true strength of the Horned Elephant tribe and Cape Town was gradually revealed.
City Lord Sydeen was the one who had single-handedly laid down this huge foundation. He worked hard to update the cultural system, encouraging the absorption of the cultural knowledge of the outsiders, and researching their magical creations.
Cape Town's commercial success, the innovation and advancement of military technology, and the gradual freedom of religious belief from the restrictions of Mount Sainte were all, in a sense, his achievements.
It could be said that without the involvement of outsiders, it was only a matter of time before he unified all the Seymour tribes in this wasteland.
Such a person was already considered an ambitious and ruthless person. He probably already knew that once Vila Nova Dônia was built, Cape Town wouldn't be the only one in this wasteland.
Festering wounds were naturally the easiest to heal in the beginning. From his point of view, it was only natural for him to act now.
He took a deep breath. Since everything had already happened, there was no point in dwelling on it anymore. What he should do now was the most important thing.
Just as he was about to return to the city, a new oracle descended from the sky.
[Rorschach, go to Cape Town and sneak in to meet up with Isabella. She seems to have made an important discovery.]
Although Cape Town had fallen into a state of war, that might not be the case in Cape Town itself. After almost a year of hard work, the branch church of the God of Games had developed quite well, and Isabella had been presiding over religious affairs … or rather, using that as an excuse to slack off openly.
The siege had already begun. Instead of taking the risk to enter the city, it was better to go to the back of Cape Town and do something. Theoretically speaking, it sounded right.
However, it was hard to say whether Lori had plans to keep Rorschach away from the dangerous battle.
After a moment's hesitation, Rorschach silently accepted the mission and made some arrangements.
Still, he brought the three dragons back to the city once. Moving freely in the magical fog, the party easily found a flaw in the siege, and the supplies carried by the two dragons might prove useful later on.
When they landed on the square in front of the church, the workers came forward to help unload the goods. Rorschach also had time to check the current situation.
Whether it was the Game Church personnel or the passersby, everyone seemed to be in a stable mood. It seemed that things had not reached the worst stage yet.
"I should be able to move with you."
When they were about to leave again, the black dragon volunteered.
"I can change into human form. I should be able to help."
The lazy Dragons actually volunteered to work. Could this be the super diligence that new recruits would only see during their rookie period?
However, Rorschach noticed that the black dragon looked at the opposite army with a complicated gaze. He could vaguely see worry and uneasiness, as if avoiding the war was his goal.
On the other hand, the red dragon's eyes were already scarlet, and flames constantly overflowed from the dragon's mouth. The red dragon's warlike nature was fully displayed.
"The black dragon is cunning and greedy, and doesn't fight head-on. The red dragon is crazy for war … It seems that these two are really typical Dragons."
Since the newcomer volunteered and he was short of manpower, Rorschach certainly wouldn't refuse.
After asking for approval, the team set off again, leaving behind the little red dragon who couldn't wait to join the battle.
The exquisitely designed defense line was directly ignored. The aerial surveillance network formed by the floating ships with a limited observation radius was not a problem for Rorschach at all.
However, a sudden oracle made Rorschach's spirits rise.
[What Isabella discovered might be able to stop this war.]
While Rorschach was busy, the devil salesman, Moroni, who had always been smiling in front of him, was giving a report with a serious expression.
"His diet is more towards vegetables and fruits. Although he eats meat, it's not a lot. His taste is similar to that of the elves … Yes, the information is correct. He should have the ability to distinguish between truth and lies. Our probing was seen through … He's not interested in women. The few succubi who approached him didn't succeed …"
What Rorschach did this week, what he ate, what he read, and even what he sleep-talked at night were all described in detail in this report.
However, the one who listened to his report was an illusory shadow.
The shadow in the lower plane became more and more surprised and incredulous as he listened.
As for the shadow, he interrupted the other party's report and asked.
