When Vila Nova Dônia was first constructed, the first step was to lay down the foundation.
Considering the harsh natural environment of this place, a stable "underground cave" was necessary when Lei Ji arrived. If the lightning protection facilities outside the city were to malfunction, a spacious underground base that was large enough to accommodate several hundred thousand people was also necessary.
Since they needed a lightning shelter and an underground fortress, the first batch of foundation materials were of the highest quality, and the holes dug were deep and wide enough.
Since Lei Ji was the one in charge of the construction of the new city, after the underground area was completed, it was natural to use it as a residential area. In the end, with the foundation as the core, a relatively complete underground city was created.
But as Vila Nova Dônia was gradually perfected, the underground city was naturally abandoned. However, the major Churches were unwilling to give up on it.
The enormous underground space was very suitable for conducting experiments that required concealment, sparring, and so on. At the very least, it could be used as a testing ground and warehouse for military magic armor.
One of the legends of Vila Nova Dônia, "The Sound of Explosions Under Your Feet", wasn't a baseless rumor.
As they recklessly used the underground space and wasted it, the underground became more and more chaotic. After five years, some areas were sealed off, while some areas were still being used by certain Churches. All sorts of cubicles, secret rooms, and walls turned the underground city into an underground labyrinth.
Then, due to certain reasons that everyone understood, many transactions that were inconvenient to see the light of day were naturally brought to this ungoverned area. This was the second legend of Vila Nova Dônia, "The Legendary Underground Black Market".
For Isabella, this was a market that she would definitely visit every week … Don't misunderstand, although there were entertainment facilities for sale there, there was no reason why the Game Church wouldn't be able to get their hands on them. However, there was even a place where fresh female blood was sold. Although she was often forgotten, she was indeed a Blood Tribe member.
Aishi Blood Tribe members could purchase blood from the hospitals, but it was inconvenient here. Because of this, Isabella would always be careful whenever she went to the Black Market.
Even she didn't think that the chaotic underground city would be safe at all.
The only fortunate thing was that Vila Nova Dônia's history wasn't long enough. It wasn't like the older cities that gave birth to a whole new world of darkness and dark factions.
Rorschach knew that in some cities, human trafficking was allowed. Slavery and cannibalism were daily occurrences. Gangs could even become the city's rulers. There were even some New Gods who were evil factions.
Although Vila Nova Dônia did indeed have some messy organizations and individuals, even the weakest Church wouldn't take them seriously. The high combat strength of the locals was also a natural source of security, as well as an advantage for future high-quality soldiers. But now, Isabella was describing the hidden dangers that came with this natural advantage.
"… Although it's indeed a little late for us to share information, it's still better than being completely unprepared and being caught off guard. There are currently two deadly hidden dangers. Roxia mentioned it before he left. The first is the evil cultists that we're currently facing. If there are too many of them, it's highly likely that they'll gather in the underground district and docks. As for the second …"
Isabella paused for a moment. This possibility was far too shocking, but from Rorschach's deduction, it was highly likely to happen.
"… Cape Town. I'm afraid we can't have any expectations for the Seymour people, who have several million people."
Archbishop Pheles paused for a moment. Then, even someone as calm as him revealed a shocked expression.
"Desperate situation?!"
As expected, a person who could become a local bishop of a large Church was not retarded. While feeling a little relieved that she could save some trouble by persuading the archbishop, Isabella silently began to cast a spell. Then, she casually threw out ten arcane missiles, blasting a lurking Eye of the God into smithereens.
Now, the background of the two high-ranking Churches was a dark corridor lit up by torches. These cheap torches were burning with purple evil flames, making the shadows look like demons.
Be it front, back, left or right, up or down, there were sounds of battle everywhere. Screams and war cries rose and fell one after another.
At this time, every combat force had to be used on the edge of the blade. It was no longer possible to discuss in a comfortable and safe conference room. The two high-ranking Churches could only fight and talk at the same time.
The fall of Cape Town? This information seemed to be unrelated to the current situation, but it was the worst possibility in the current situation. Pheles thought everything through in an instant, and then came to the answer of "desperate situation".
The key to the problem was still that damned False Vision ability.
"The Eye of Wisdom has deceived everyone …"
In the original assessment of the various Churches of Vila Nova Dônia, the Eye of Wisdom was not a very dangerous God. The reason was that after so many years, it could not even deal with Sydeon. The cultists had even been operating under the control of the city lord. For the researchers of evil Gods, this was simply a disgrace among the evil Gods.
But now, it was discovered that it had this super passive ability of False Vision. Then, all the assessments were useless.
Its true harm and spread were definitely far beyond the results that it had shown. After so many years of accumulation, Cape Town was probably already full of holes.
Then, it could be explained why there were so many cultists of the Eye of Wisdom in the city now.
The two cities now had train transportation, and the cultists of Cape Town who had this ability could totally come in through the proper channels.
Perhaps, this "Eye of Wisdom" evil God was just quietly spreading its tentacles. When it really made its move, everything would be too late.
Now, with internal and external troubles, Vila Nova Dônia was already in a desperate situation.
"… No, no, there are some things that don't make sense …"
But Phelps found that some things did not make sense.
"Before its ability is revealed, the longer it drags on, the more advantageous it is for it. It could totally cook a frog over a slow fire and exhaust us to death. There is no need for it to lure our fleet into an ambush. Wouldn't this give us a chance to fight back? "
Hearing this, Isabella laughed, but it was a strange laugh.
Not long ago, she had also asked this question, and then the answer she received was so strange that she could not comment on it.
"Who said that the Eye of Wisdom lured us into an ambush this time? Aren't our opponents this time two evil Gods? Rorschach said that it is very likely that the Eye of Wisdom did not want to activate now. It was forced to be exposed under the sun. Yes, it was tricked by the other evil God. "
While Phelps was overwhelmed by one shocking piece of information after another, at the front line of the battlefield in the mining area, a completely puzzling scene was playing out.
"Jack! Just as you planned, I'm here. You bastard, you still don't dare to show up? "
After completing the Divine Descent, Rorschach, after sending out what seemed to be an invitation to a battle with a mortal enemy, sat down calmly and waited.
When the second evil God's will that appeared attached to the body of a cultist really arrived as promised, not only did the two sides not fight, but they also maintained a safe distance calmly and talked to each other on equal terms.
"Yo, long time no see. Since you're here, you should have guessed my goal, right …?"
But it was very easy to expose all of this, just as Isabella explained to Phelps now.
That was Rorschach's original words:
