Phil nodded: "That's about enough to handle tomorrow's strategy."
Doris, who was engrossed in inspecting the puppets, looked up and said, "I plan to complete the game in one go tomorrow. You all should check the puppets for any problems, just in case something goes wrong tomorrow."
"Are you planning to complete the game in one go? Then I'll get ready."
Anke laid out a bunch of colorful potions, but you couldn't tell what they were just by looking at them.
"I'm prepared to encounter monster hordes like today, and this time I won't waste as much time as I did today."
"What have you prepared?"
"Incendiary agent, enhanced version, a diffusion-capable incendiary agent."
"Will they burn down the lighthouse?" Celia asked.
An Ke fell into deep thought, then looked up after a moment: "Yes."
other people:"……"
……
The next morning.
The five girls set off again.
They received new badges, and before they set off, Abros also told them not to be reckless and to use the badges to leave if they encountered danger.
Ross laughed and said, "Your use of the badges to leave yesterday disrupted the Lighthouse Master's plans, so it will inevitably impose restrictions on teleportation. You may not be able to use the badges as easily anymore."
Celia said confidently, "Then we won't need the badges. Just like Doris said, we'll clear the game in one go!"
"Okay, very spirited!"
The girls walked through the outer perimeter and arrived at the Gold Coast. Just as they were about to enter the lighthouse, they suddenly realized that it seemed to be getting dark.
They paused, gazing out at the distant sea.
Sure enough, the ghost ship was slowly sailing towards them.
"It's too much!"
Meanwhile, the mercenaries adventuring on the outskirts saw the sky darkening and cursed angrily.
"Will this ever end? Ghost ships have appeared for two days in a row!"
"What the hell? The ghost ship used to only appear once every ten days or half a month, why is it appearing for two consecutive days now?"
"Is someone skilled at conquering the lighthouse?"
The mercenaries on the periphery had no effect on Celia and the others.
They arrived at the lighthouse and saw that the door, which should have been open, was now tightly closed.
The girls stared in disbelief: "Are they turning us away from the lighthouse?"
Benovia said thoughtfully, "Perhaps the Tower Master wants the ghost ship to deal with us."
Doris said, "We absolutely cannot run into the ghost ship, or we will get lost. We need to find a way to open the gate."
“I’ll do it.” Celia stepped forward, pressed her hand on the tower door, and magical light appeared in her hand, transforming into complex patterns that disappeared into the door.
A moment later, the door opened.
The others looked at her strangely, but Celia chuckled and said, "It's just a simple rune trick."
other people:"……"
That's far too "easy".
Once inside, the monsters that attacked people reappeared on the first floor, but they were very easy for them to handle.
Ross gave Celia a full "X-ray vision" mental scan, allowing them to quickly ascend to the fourth level.
After resting briefly on the fourth floor, and before the ghost ship arrived, we went straight to the fifth floor.
Celia said, "Starting from the fifth floor, low-level monsters will go into hiding again, waiting for an opportunity to attack, while high-level monsters will directly block the way. You deal with the high-level monsters, and I will kill the hidden low-level monsters."
With Ross's full perspective, all the hiding spots became a joke, as they were all shot down by Celia's crystal arrows.
Subsequently, she joined the hunt for high-level monsters.
Fifth floor, taken!
The ghost ship had traveled halfway and time was of the essence, so the girls skipped the fifth floor and went straight to the sixth.
On the sixth floor, low-level monsters no longer hide, but appear together with high-level monsters.
Furthermore, the appearance of two high-level monsters increases the difficulty.
However, the two monsters were no match for the well-prepared Saintess team, and they were easily defeated ten minutes later.
Then came the seventh floor, which was successfully taken before the ghost ship docked.
The melodious sound of the ship's horn rang out again. Celia glanced out the window and suddenly had a thought: "Could we attack them with ranged magic from here?"
Doris said, "Don't do anything foolish. These are special events at ruins. Once attacked, no one knows what unexpected things might happen."
Doris was more experienced in exploring ruins, so Celia didn't say anything.
The Saintess Squad rested briefly on the seventh floor before continuing their journey.
The difficulty increases dramatically on the eighth floor. There are now five high-level monsters, along with a large number of low-level monsters, who immediately launch a berserk attack upon their arrival.
The docking of the ghost ships granted them an even greater boost than the darkness of night, making them invincible.
Then they were stopped by a combination of scrolls and potions.
The scrolls from different systems created a chain reaction, and combined with the negative effects of the potion, the five monsters were completely unable to resist and were controlled to death.
The difference from the previous levels is that, starting from this level, they used powerful spells, combined with scrolls and potions, to create a meticulous control and output, denying the opponent a chance to go berserk and counterattack.
We successfully conquered the eighth floor without any major incident.
Doris, panting, cheered on her teammates: "Two more floors and we'll be done! Let's give it our all and deliver a perfect performance in this trial!"
Celia said, "Don't rush, you guys rest for a bit, I'll get some runes."
She went to the window and looked down at the ghost ship.
The dense pollution transformed into a tangible mist, spreading upwards along the tower.
Celia placed her hand on a special stone brick. Her mage hand transformed into threads, piercing through the brick and reaching the runes inside. Through the backdoor left yesterday, she infiltrated the entire ruins' magic array system.
Ross said, "Right now, you can only stop the demonic energy from flowing into the upper levels; you can't weaken the demons on the ninth level, no matter how you manipulate the virtual runes."
"All right……"
Celia had to abandon her thoughts of manipulating the entire relic array system to attack the tower master, just as she had done in the Twilight Cult stronghold.
"It can also prevent the pollution below from rising, which indirectly weakens their combat effectiveness."
After a short rest, the Saintess Squad ascended to the ninth floor, the second to last floor.
Upon arriving, they immediately noticed that this place was much larger than the area below.
By memorizing the shape, they quickly identified where they were.
"Is this the layer that extends outwards? Isn't that the top layer?"
Celia looked at all the monsters in the ninth floor and said softly, "This is the highest floor of the lighthouse. Above that is the detection floor where the tower master is located. Defeat ten third-tier monsters here, and you can face the tower master directly."
Ten ferocious third-tier monsters, each with a different shape, resembling parts of various animals pieced together, stood guard at the entrance to the stairs leading to the top of the tower, watching them menacingly.
There are no low-level monsters here, and there is plenty of room for maneuver.
"Ouch——!"
The monsters launch their final all-out attack!
I'm experiencing some writer's block, but there's still one chapter left. I'm writing it rather slowly, so it might be a bit late.
Chapter 168 Sea God's Familiar: Blue-Winged Seahorse
boom--! ! !
Amidst the explosion, several monsters were blasted away, and various spells came from all directions, continuously bombarding the monsters.
With ten monsters, the Saintess Squad, consisting of five members and five puppets, could theoretically fight them one-on-one, saving resources. However, with the resources of potions and scrolls, they chose to gather the monsters together and bombard them continuously to suppress them.
"We're not the same people we were a month ago, facing the sirens empty-handed!"
She tore the scrolls apart and flung them out as if they were free, and Celia's smile became somewhat twisted.
Beneath the twisted smile lay the heartache of lost gold coins.
But when she thought about the benefits of passing through the ruins, she became excited again.
Putting everything else aside, the rewards from the Empire and the Holy Court after clearing the game are a large amount of gold coins. Although it can't compare to the price of these scrolls when sold, it can at least cover the costs.
As for other rewards, such as loot from kills, needless to say, everyone is there to conquer ruins for loot and artifacts.
With that in mind, Celia no longer hesitated. Aside from the scroll intended for the tower lord, she distributed all the other scrolls, issuing a declaration befitting a tycoon:
"Use them all!"
Thus, with overwhelming resources, the ten monsters fell one after another.
Until the entire ninth floor fell silent.
The girls were still having a great time, discovering for the first time that fighting with scrolls was actually quite interesting.
It's just a bit expensive.
Celia habitually went to the window on the floor and looked down to see the ghost ship's movements.
Resisting the urge to fire a crystal arrow downwards, she returned to the group to rest with the others.
Doris said, "The final battle is coming up. We don't know if there's only the tower master or a bunch of monsters at the top. Just to be safe, we'd better get back to our peak condition here before going up."
Anke distributed some potions to everyone: "These are enhancement potions, which can increase the power of spells and the flow of magic power. Take them when you're about to go up. These are potions to replenish magic power..."
Since Celia was generous with scrolls, Anko was equally generous with potions.
After receiving the potion from Anko, Benovia and the other two had a strange feeling.
Of the five candidates for sainthood, three were from noble families and two were from commoner families. The two candidates from commoner families were spending lavishly, using other people's things while carrying almost no consumables of their own...
Regardless of what others thought, Benovia had already made a decision in her heart: once they were out, she would use the images on her bracelet to count how many potions and scrolls they had used and compensate them accordingly.
Benovia looked at Celia, her mind once again filled with her conversation with Phil yesterday.
Celia... Rose... Hero will...
What exactly is the connection between these things...?
After a short rest, the Saintess Squad set off again, climbed to the top of the tower, and stood under the huge navigation light.
It's very open and vast here; you can see not only the far reaches of the sea but also the far reaches of the land.
They came up from the edge, close to the land, and when they looked back, they could even vaguely see the campsites in the distance.
However, they had no interest in looking at the camp at the moment; they were all looking down at the huge navigation light.
Beneath the floating navigation light, a horse sits cross-legged...?
No, it's a Pegasus with a horse's head, a fish's tail, and blue wings.
Ross recognized the monster's identity and looked disappointed: "It's not the sea god, just the sea god's mount, the blue-winged seahorse. Tsk tsk, so the sea god's horse is gone."
"The Sea God's horse is gone?" Celia asked, puzzled.
Ross didn't answer, but said, "Let's make our move. This Pegasus, as a follower of the Sea God, won't be easy to defeat. Even though its strength is suppressed and it's been corrupted, it's still very strong."
The learned Benovia also recognized the horse's identity.
"This is the Blue-winged Seahorse, said to be the mount of the sea god, driving his golden chariot. Whether that's true or not, I never imagined the lighthouse's keeper would be it..."
Celia asked, "Do you know what abilities the Blue Winged Seahorse possesses?"
Benovia thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "It should only be spraying water, right?"
Ross said, "The Blue Winged Seahorse can not only spray water, but also ram, claw, and use all kinds of water magic."
“It can use all kinds of water magic,” Celia said.
"We'll see once we try." Doris took the lead and guided the puppet forward.
