City Hall Square.
When Roger arrived.
This place was already packed with people.
The ordinary people who had heard the news surrounded the square so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
Inside the square.
The doors and windows of all the rooms in the city Hall building were tightly shut.
Roger sensed it.
Most of the doors and windows had been nailed shut from the inside.
But even so ...
The people in the castle-like building were also shrouded in fear.
The flickering eyes between the doors and windows revealed that the city's rulers had long lost control of the situation.
Towards all this.
Roger wasn't surprised.
On the way here.
He specially selected a few citizens to have in-depth negotiations.
Under the effect of deception and bread.
He now had a general understanding of the city and the current situation.
..
To Lotus city.
Chaos was not normal.
The city used to be prosperous ...
