Darius almost wanted to laugh. This was a great deception, one that had likely even fooled True Lords. Gravitas had pulled the wool over everyone's eyes, and Darius now understood why, or at least, he had an idea why.
The accumulation of military power!
Why did he think so?
Well, apart from it being usually the most obvious reason why a faction would hide their affairs, it was also because the power gap between a magitech civilization and a modern Earth one was huge.
Bullets were not omnipotent, they could be spotted by a myriad of means, even more so in a world filled with magic and elements. No matter the tanks, the rockets, and all those things, they could be stopped as long as the person receiving them had a certain level of power to resist it.
In essence, it was dangerous, but not catastrophic. Even nukes, which were something Miranda had used to destroy Elysium, were only deterrents based on their atomic reaction.
