In a sense, the riot plan was both a success and a failure.
A muddle-headed rebellion was basically courting death. It was obviously organized and planned, but Rorschach still felt that they were courting death.
It was no longer difficult for them to carry out their plan.
The first step was to incite the discontented and unemployed to cause trouble on the streets. This happened every month, and the local warlords and Aishi People would not care.
The second step was to intensify the conflict, turning the riot into a riot, and turning the discontented into rioters.
These things also existed in a technological world like Earth, but the development later was somewhat different.
In a magical world, evil gods and gods really existed. As long as there were enough sacrifices to attract them, it was possible to attract all kinds of demons and ghosts.
Riots, disasters, and mass deaths could attract the attention of indescribable beings.
If it was just a riot, considering the upcoming war, Rorschach was only 30% to 40% sure that there was an evil god behind the scenes. The whole thing would most likely develop into a sacrifice to an evil god.
But if the leader was an evil god, Rorschach …
"It's 100% a sacrifice to summon an evil god. Is there anything else in the brains of evil gods? All of their goals and missions are to serve their boss. "
What happened next was natural. They sent out their troops in two directions.
They incited a riot internally, and intercepted the trains and airships of the Aishi People externally. They were trying to delay as much time as possible.
Rorschach said that they did a good job. They had succeeded in completing the most difficult task. Not only did they obstruct the transportation between the two places, but they also chose a time when the people of Vila Nova Dônia were in a panic. The response of the major churches was even slower.
As for the Evil God, dealing with it a day earlier or a day later was a completely different matter.
Every hour, or even every minute, probably represented tens of thousands of extra sacrifices and efforts.
"We can't wait for reinforcements. We have to act now."
After Rorschach made up his mind, there was no possibility of stopping. Thus, in just one and a half hours, Rorschach sneaked into the core area.
"That's true. I really don't know what to say."
What Rorschach saw and heard along the way made him feel conflicted.
"… There are quite a lot of people, but how should I put it? It's just that feeling of being stuck between the top and bottom. There aren't enough of them, and they're not crazy enough. This evil god is a bit weak. "
Looking down from the window on the second floor, Rorschach saw a group of ragged thugs walking past.
They were happily carrying a beast of burden, preparing to eat it later. There were also some who were leading chocobos pulling carts, probably for an extra meal.
Behind them, a group of people were still in high spirits. Only a few people wearing black robes with their faces covered were stopping them. They were shouting things like "There's more delicious food in the house over there" and "Don't you want to wear something nicer?"
But apparently, no one listened to them.
By chance, a few people had been incited and had just gotten closer.
"Boom!"
However, he was struck by a bolt of lightning that came out of nowhere. Then, spears, arrows, and stones came flying at him.
The thugs were so scared that they covered their heads and ran away like rats. They even left the chocobos behind.
"Pfft, what an embarrassing group of thugs."
Rorschach almost laughed out loud. This was too embarrassing. He had never seen such an embarrassing group of evil god believers and thugs.
This was also why Rorschach said that although their plan succeeded, it also failed.
They used the advantage of a sneak attack to complete the most difficult mission, which was to cut off the connection between the two places. However, when it came to the main event, it was a complete failure.
They found a group of losers and successfully incited them, turning them into thugs and starting a riot. However, the problem was that the losers had failed too thoroughly. They couldn't even defeat the commoners, so what could they do?
At this moment, Rorschach also had a deep understanding of the individual strength of the Seymour people. This was like entering the country of the Superior Elves with the Silver Bloodline. They were long-lived, and not long ago, nomadic and tribal. They had long internal wars, foreign wars, and hunts. The average strength of each individual was not low.
Therefore, in such a marginal society, inciting a group of weakest losers would naturally not cause much of a stir.
"This is like a joke. What are you guys thinking??"
In the short moment of attacking the intruders, Su Nanna appeared from the shadows and disappeared again.
The thugs who ran away in a hurry probably didn't notice that they were missing a guide.
Rorschach's time was limited. After a short period of not suitable for children, Su Nanna placed a bunch of junk in front of the cultist, such as silver needles (for climbing), hooks (same as above), small pincers (for eating walnuts), and bamboo skewers (leftovers from eating skewers). The cultist was so scared that he wet himself.
Yes, literally. Although it was a good thing that the cultist was a coward, the smell of it disgusted Rorschach.
He was used to all kinds of difficult opponents. Every time he encountered an evil god, he would be prepared to die. At this moment, he felt that this was more and more like a farce.
Facing such an opponent, he would naturally tell them everything he knew without holding anything back.
Their plan was indeed as Rorschach had guessed. It was the same as the evil god's three methods — deception, incitement, sacrifice, and summoning.
After a set of procedures, the area was considered to be over.
"You mean to say that you lost too many people in the previous incident. There are only three One-eyed Ones left. You are all acolytes? "
"No, no, no. Sir, we are just ordinary people! We're just ordinary people who have been deceived by them. We don't believe in those messy big eyes at all. They took away our identity cards and membership letters, and said that if we want to leave, we'll be reported to the officials! "
Rorschach laughed bitterly. Was this still the evil god's church? How did it compare to a pyramid scheme?
What happened next was logical. The previous incident caused the Eye of Wisdom to lose 99% of its core members. Those who were lucky enough to survive were small fries.
Originally, these evil cults should have been buried deep in the ground as "seeds" to cultivate their core members and wait for the day when they needed to be eliminated. This was the best way to survive.
They were very good at using all kinds of methods to lure ordinary people, dissatisfied people, and perverts into joining them. Then, they would gradually use their doctrines and supernatural powers to brainwash them. Gradually, they would gain believers and expand the church.
They had also received orders from their master to carry out the sacrifice during this period of time. Thus, they were forced to do something beyond their ability.
The most difficult task was given to the strongest few people, which were the leftovers. They were to think of ways to stop the Aishi People.
There was a "One-eyed Bishop" here who incited a riot under the lead of the "One-eyed Bishop."
He was only one person. Inciting a riot used up all of his power. He had originally thought that after the riot and the sacrifice started, he would be rewarded by his "master" to recover some of his power. However, he hit a wall when the riot started.
Now, the rioters were indeed out of control. They were out of control in various ways. After an unlucky member of the evil cult was hung up and beaten by the militia, the rioters realized that these mysterious people were no different from them.
The rioters were out of control and scattered. These evil cult members did not even have enough manpower to follow them. Rorschach's group was lucky to have met them.
However, the news that came from the evil cult member was not all good.
"Everyone has completed their mission. They are on their way back to the inner city. I heard that the master has already rewarded them."
* Boom! *
In a short moment, Rorschach saw fireworks. They almost hit his face.
