Violet Dream, the atmosphere is quite solemn.

Aloy's appearance was completely unexpected by Rod, and he had not heard even the slightest rumor of it - the intervention of the sea beast priest directly put Rod's plan in unbearable danger.

Zaun's casualties would have been more than Rhodes had predicted – many.

Rhodes was the first to activate the sewer shelter ahead of schedule.

Actually, all this has to do with the butterfly effect caused by Rhodes.

When Rhodes quietly reveals the bounty hunter's revenge to Evelyn, the widowmaker, the incident causes a chain reaction of sorts.

Evelyn searches for Card Master Trist—the bounty hunter has a hunch of exposure—and the messenger of the gods of the Python Islands senses something out of the ordinary.

In order to get rid of these guys who are quite close to Planck, the bounty hunters also find a way to cause trouble, encouraging Aloy to find the glory of God.

Aloy chose to seek the oracle.

It was at this moment that Naga Kapoulos sensed Cana's awakening.

So, after an oracle, Aloy accepted Noxus' invitation.

Of course, Rhodes didn't know what was behind this, and what he could confirm was that the battle of Zaun was now much more difficult than he had originally estimated, and the participation of a truly powerful god in the battle could produce indescribable power at a critical moment.

More importantly, if something is not done, Naga Kapoulos has a good chance of gaining the faith of the Zaans.

If the Zaun did convert to Naga Kapoulos for their own safety—even if it was a verbal faith—it meant that Jana's power would be weakened once again.

If this is the case, even if they find out the true face of Naga Kapoulos by then, then it will be too late for Rhodes to turn the tables around.

The top priority is to unmask Naga Kapolos!

So Rod approached Ike and asked him to mobilize all the Zaun fans and spread the word about Naga Kapoulos' faith in Zaum.

It may not be possible to do anything else, but when it comes to being a water army, Zu'an Fan Tong is simply very good!

"Have you heard that the priests of Naga Kapoulos have come to Zaun in person, and they seem to want to preach in Zaun."

"Missionary? I think it's collecting money, right? ”

"Almost—have you been to Bilgewater?"

"No, what's wrong."

"Well, then you don't know how terrible his faith is, in the Anaconda Islands, as long as you are willing to pay sacrifice, Naga Kapoulos will be willing to help, at least the priests, to help you solve your problem!"

"Isn't that good?"

"Okay? But we can't afford it, but the barons can! ”

With Rhodes providing the information and Ike in charge of spreading the news, the rumors of Naga Kapoulos had just spread throughout Zaun - and now, the vast majority of Zaun people were worried about the future.

But this concern has no real meaning.

But now it looks like this.

……………………

However, when the war actually began, everything was in a much worse situation in Zaun than it seemed.

Piltover's retreat meant that Zaun had lost his last umbrella – and now, he had only himself to rely on.

The alchemy barons were in a hurry, but it was useless to be in a hurry, and the Noxian ships soon landed in the harbor of Zaun.

Although they formed an alliance, these Noxians easily entered the Sinking Hook Mine and merged with the remnants of the Noxian forces in Zaun.

In the Sink Pit, the Noxians began driving the commoners of Zaun to create a large statue of Naga Kapolos, which, judging by its appearance, was most likely a statue of Naga Kapolos.

The intentions of the Noxians are on the verge of being heard.

When the statue is finished, Naga Kapoulos will temporarily descend on Zaun with the form of the statue, and he will sweep through everything!

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the alchemy barons had to start a tentative assault on the Hook Pit.

It's a pity that the Sinking Hook Mine itself is located at the lowest end of Zu'an, it is a semi-underground building, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with the help of the entire Night Raven Mage Regiment, it can be described as impregnable, even if the Alchemy Baron dispatches the most elite alchemy body transformers under him, it still can't break through the defense line of the Noxians.

Even Svein seized the opportunity and pushed back a wave, tearing a big hole in the encirclement of the alchemy barons - if it weren't for the alchemy barons indiscriminately releasing a large amount of alchemy poison gas, the Noxians' counter-encirclement would have had even better results!

Zuan seems to be on his way to a slow death.

What's even more terrifying is that this war is completely different from the previous battle for territory in the Alchemy Baron.

The Alchemy Barons need a sphere of influence, so they will try to preserve the local civilians.

But Noxus wouldn't—and the alchemist barons, who were at a disadvantage in battle, couldn't save them if they wanted to.

Spell bombardment and alchemical gas have taken a heavy toll on civilians - and it was only then that Zaun understood how brutal real war could be.

The Zaun disappeared block by block - although Ike had evacuated ahead of time with the Zaun Miscellane, many Zaun people mistakenly thought that the battle would be like the "playhouse" of the Alchemy Baron, and refused to leave.

In this case, although Rhodes forcibly took action, he couldn't help many people after all.

The hastily renovated sewers are crowded with refugees from the war zone, and the number of refugees is growing.

The port of Zaun was blockaded by Naga Kapoulos, and after losing supplies, everything was desperate - medicine, food, and even clean water.

Many times Rhodes even had to spend mana to rub bread and make magic springs.

Jana's faith began to grow, and she guarded the Zuan people with Japanese winds, but she was still powerless against war.

What to do?

Rhodes is asking Catherine for help, and Jana is trying to use her powers, and the Zaun fan boy no longer giggles, but helps the Zaun refugees with the most basic military training - not to kill the enemy, but to protect themselves.

On the other side, the alchemy barons are once again together.

The Noxians must be stopped!

Once their action is successful, the alchemy barons will lose everything they have now - wealth, status, which will become the new honor of Noxus!

Maybe there would have been an alchemy baron in Zaun at that time, but it is very likely that it will not be the current group of people anymore!

But then again, even if all the alchemy barons are gathered together, there is still no way for everyone to do it!

Just yesterday, the Alchemy Baron led by Saito Takeda sent a large number of special offensive troops, including large equipment such as Hex's prosthetic transformation alchemy golem, but after all, they still failed to break through the blockade of the Noxian mages.

The entire sinking pit can be said that water can't be splashed into it!

After paying heavy casualties, the Alchemy Barons were forced to retreat - they were not regular troops in the first place, and it was fine to bully civilians and thugs, but in such a strong battle, the Alchemy Baron's men could play very little role.

In this case, a crazy idea was proposed.

"Why don't we ask Blitz to remove the combat module restrictions on those steam robots?"

————————

Ike has been complaining about Rhodes lately, and in Ike's opinion, even living miserably is better than enduring this kind of war.

Maybe after the war, Zaun will be able to stand up – but after the war, how many Zaun will be able to enjoy all this?

Rod was noncommittal to Ike's words.

Rod believes that Zuan will be grateful.
