"Attack, attack, attack!"
Rorschach didn't arrange any complicated missions, nor did he arrange any intricate battle tactics. As a temporary tactical command tower, Rorschach knew that what he needed to do right now was to … operate well, and then attack.
There weren't any battle tactics to speak of in a one-versus-one battle. Encirclement and hunting were in a way similar to gangster fights. It was simply to surround and beat the enemy to death so that the enemy would only be able to focus on the east and not the west.
However, the arrival of reinforcements caused a strange change in the battlefield.
Illusory flames burned fiercely on the evil incarnations. Golden light kept flashing as the destroyed eyeballs actually recovered.
The steel baldies controlled by the archmages were also instantly corroded and assimilated by the evil incarnations.
For a moment, the Evil God's might increased explosively. The rapid recovery of the Evil God's injuries at a visible rate made everyone suspect that the Evil Gods they were fighting earlier were fake and useless.
A few new warriors had just gotten off the airships and started piloting their magic armors for the first wave of airstrikes when they were stunned by the sudden increase in attack power and instantly fell to the ground.
However, Rorschach heaved a sigh of relief.
This was a normal battle against Evil Gods. These distorted incarnations were like a malignant virus that couldn't be eradicated to begin with. They would repeatedly recur after being eliminated.
The current situation was only because Jack had removed his suppressive abilities. This also meant that he had left … at least on the surface.
Although Roland knew that Jack wouldn't likely become an enemy right now, since Jack's most important goal would definitely be to consolidate his own gains, using logic to think about an Evil God's behavior was unreliable to begin with.
Although Rorschach had become temporary reinforcements, he had always been on guard against Jack. In fact, he didn't even dare to go to the frontlines himself … Rorschach knew quite well that as long as he revealed an opening, both sides would happily kill each other.
During the battle, Rorschach had also focused a lot of attention on analyzing Jack's abilities … Not only was he not doing his job properly, he even received support and reminders from several veteran descenders, including Lori.
"What's his element? Can you tell with your ability? "
"That's enough. A mere incarnation of his will was able to suppress an incomplete incarnation of the Eye of Wisdom. His ability is very special and dangerous."
Even if his companions hadn't taken the initiative to remind him, Rorschach wouldn't have let go of such a good opportunity to observe his future enemy.
That's right, Roxia and his companions already viewed this new Evil God as their number one enemy in the future. Even if Roxia didn't have any premonitions, he was certain that he would have to deal with this new Evil God in the future.
Evil Gods were, in many cases, an unknown combination. "What are their elements?" "What kind of power does they have?" The analysis of information and concepts was the first step in dealing with the Evil Gods. Without Lori's analysis of the Eye of Wisdom, there was no need for the assault team to fight.
A newly born Evil God was extremely disgusting. His "unknown" nature made it impossible for the Aishi People to analyze him. Usually, they would have to sacrifice enough (cannon fodder) in order to obtain targeted information.
Perhaps Jack wasn't strong enough yet, but he was definitely the most troublesome opponent to deal with since he had already transformed his life essence.
"I can't see anything."
Rorschach's sigh surprised and puzzled everyone. How could his shameless ability fail at such a distance?
Rorschach closed his eyes and forcefully pinched his forehead. His head was really hurting.
"To be precise, it's not that I can't see anything, but that I can see too much. It's all a mess. The Eye of Wisdom's power signature accounts for at least 30% of it. The Evil God that Saul faced last time also accounts for more than 20% of it."
This was just like the last time when they fought against Jack. If every word he said was a lie, even a lie detector would be useless. Just now, all the messy Evil Gods' Concepts were mixed together in a chaotic mess. Rorschach's eyes hurt just from looking at them.
"He's on guard against us."
Rorschach knew very well that Jack wasn't a super existence that had been transformed from a planet-level gigantic creature. He was a Concept Evil God that had been transformed from his physical body. He was now an existence that was similar to a collection of energy. And when his "Concepts" were his physical body's composition, it was impossible for his Concepts to be mottled. It was just like how a pure fire elemental creature's body wouldn't have mixed elements such as the water element. Or to put it more bluntly, a Concept like a river wouldn't have fire in its soil.
"He's also preparing to fight against us."
Rorschach silently increased his vigilance against him again. The other party had deliberately hidden himself, so he had his own plans. Rorschach boldly guessed that Jack's ability must be very special.
"Activate your territory and continue to attack!"
But now, the most important thing was still the opponent in front of them.
The Domain of Suppression that Jack had removed was directly blocked by the Domain of the Game Church's mothership. Theoretically speaking, this Domain of Suppression that was used to suppress the real Evil God shouldn't have much of a problem against this incarnation of the Evil God.
Of course, a battleship that could suppress an Evil God's Domain couldn't possibly be a mass-produced ordinary battleship. It was basically the mothership of each church or the ace hunting ship. Normally, the New Gods would also accumulate Divine Power in it to be used in battle.
If Jack didn't leave, he would also be trapped by the battleship's Domain of Suppression, and this incarnation of his would definitely die here. Although the power of a single incarnation might be limited, the things that could be analyzed from it would likely be his fatal weakness in the future.
Rorschach didn't believe that a mere incarnation of Jack's will would be able to escape right under his nose. It was likely that Jack had directly given up on this incarnation when he saw this battleship with a New God's Domain of Suppression and self-destructed or something.
"Let's deal with this incarnation first."
Rorschach shook his head and dispelled the extravagant hope of dealing with two Evil Gods at once. Being able to deal with one Evil God's incarnation was already more than enough for the Game Church.
"… Let's take it slow."
There was no need to think too much about this. While he was rushing back to face the even more dangerous Evil God's incarnation, this incomplete incarnation of his would be a much "safer" opponent. It would be more suitable for the newbies of the Game Church to practice against.
What an excellent opponent. Technically speaking, this was the highest-level Evil God, the most dangerous Concept level existence. But now, not only did this Evil God's incarnation descend in an incomplete form, it was just like cutting off a limb … Or, to put it another way, this piece of Evil God's flesh was just like a virus in a vaccine. It was especially suitable for producing specific antibodies.
"Everyone says that one who doesn't experience Evil God hunting isn't qualified to be a Descender. It seems that we'll have several dozen more qualified Descenders this time. Everyone, don't be anxious. Follow the training manual's instructions. Safety first, and prepare to help each other. We'll take it slow …"
[We won't take it slow. Our Divine Power reserves are almost empty.]
Rorschach was instantly rendered speechless.
"The Divine Power Pool in the battleship?"
[Your girlfriend used it to shoot airplanes — no, airships. That's just a messed up way of using it. She used up all the Divine Power Pool we had accumulated over the past few months.]
"Can't you replenish your Divine Power Pool right now so that you can last a little longer?"
[I'm even worse off here. You don't know what's more important than her. You messed around in my body and sucked me dry long ago.]
"Oh."
Rorschach fell silent for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that this was only natural. He had been constantly creating steel armies all this time. He was almost at his limit.
"Then there's nothing I can do about it … Lori, do you think it's fun to intentionally lead us to strange places?"
