Chapter 201: Ch 197 chaos and confusion
When they moved together, it meant something even bigger. And now, paired with the Dark Elven Empire and the Mountain Dwarf Clans, they were acting in ways no one had predicted—and no one could yet explain.
The randomness of the deployments didn’t sit right with the Tier-One powers. They knew—they knew—that something major was in play. But what could possibly be so significant that even the Forger Guild and the Alchemy Association were willing to mobilize at this scale, in this pattern?
That was the question haunting them.

That was the question haunting them.
And the worst part? They had no answers—and no intel, either. Not a single leak. Nothing.
That silence added weight to the growing mystery behind the strange, unnatural, and completely unorthodox movement of the fleets. Every second that passed without explanation only deepened the unease.
Their questions kept piling up, multiplying faster than they could be answered—despite their best efforts.

On it, all 160 battle groups from the four powers were displayed in motion—each traveling in a seemingly random, unrelated direction. No signs of convergence. No signs of coordination. Just organized chaos.
A man stood in front of the display, arms crossed, face tense. He was trying—desperately—to find a pattern. Anything. A clue. A direction.

But again, like before, the data betrayed him.
