>>5580073They can’t leave.
They’ve come this far, and they’re not leaving without another rod.
The guns are moved closer to the windows and pointed upwards, aiming towards the gliders that fly around the building.
Four gliders. One on each side.
..
…
The moment arrives.
As the spotlights sweep past the windows of the floors beneath them, the deities ignite the organ guns and cannons.
Deafening booms echoes in the building as the gliders are perforated by shot of varying diameters.
The gliders do not suddenly fall, but merely linger in the air. Their guns and spotlights fall still.
A retaliatory volley quickly finds their way near the deities. Gunmen on the training center’s rooftops, most likely. They miss, but caused the deities to move away from the windows and cover them up.
With the removal of the gliders, they don’t need to worry about the spotlights, allowing them to evade soldiers easier.

They still have a long way to go. If Tawan was truly honest about the whereabout of his rod, they’ll have to go the heavily guarded underground floors of the facility HQ.
Before that, they’ll have to deal with the Glairborn soldiers that will soon arrive to their floor.
>[stealth] Burrow their way downwards (Clausewtiz roll a 1d20+crit vs DC 12)Clausewitz can control water to cut their way down, avoiding the soldiers.
>[speed] Accelerate past them (All deities roll 1d20+initiative vs DC 50)Gunpowder tools, debris, and traps will be used to disorient the soldiers, letting the deities to run past them.
>[violence] Battle of annihilation (Roll a 1d2, 1 means failure)Reloading all the guns could take a lot of time, but if they are fast enough, this could wipe out most of the soldiers coming for them.
>[violence ー slug launchers] Hold the stairs (Deities with frail body type roll 1d10, deities with strong body type roll a 1d15 vs HP loss, DC 8)The stairs will act as a decent chokepoint. Fighting from this position should mitigate their superior numbers and firepower.
If they fail, they’ll surely be captured due to the sheer amount of soldiers, but if they are successful in dealing with them, they’ll be able to get to the underground floors.
No matter the method, this obstacle will push the deities to the limit.
This is the last choice.
