Sylas was inwardly shocked by his conclusion, trying to understand why he was so certain without being able to see his stats. But in the end, he could only chalk it up to his new perception.
Right now, they were in the city that Lucius had set up within the Paradise Portal.
The situation around the portal itself was quite distorted and odd. That was because by now, it had already consumed the land and swallowed up the entirety of Paradise.
If Sylas had to guess, the government may have never stepped foot here at all. Considering how much trouble the Grimblades went through to get this disk, it had to be exceptionally rare. If he put himself in the position of the government, it was obviously far more important to protect the main cities as opposed to small towns like this one.
To make room for the portal, many things had been expelled and rearranged, and the townsfolk were essentially forcefully conscripted to Lucius' efforts.
