Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

Anke said, "Then... you used so much, and it seems like your magic power has only recovered a little bit?"

Celia brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "Uh, this is a special case, it's normal."

normal?

This is not normal at all!

Seeing that Celia didn't want to talk about it, Anke didn't ask any more questions and said, "We've been delayed for so long, the guards of Leites City should have finished exploring the area below by now."

Celia frowned: "They went to explore? Are there any array masters among them?"

"do not know."

Are there any fourth-tier mages there?

"do not know."

"..."

Celia stared intently at Anke: "Are you really Anke? Not Doris?"

“Anke is always Anke, Celia, what are you talking about?”

Anke was very dissatisfied.

"How could I possibly be that idiot Doris?"

Celia said, "I recorded what you said, and I'll play it for Doris when I see her."

An Ke said urgently, "No, you can't do that. An Ke was just saying it casually."

Celia chuckled, "Just kidding. Okay, let's go. Take me to see that underground space you discovered."

"Okay, come with me."

The two walked together and soon arrived at the house, which was surrounded by a squad of guards.

"The tunnel is inside this house."

Celia looked around and shook her head: "The magic array in Leites City does not restrict the digging of tunnels, which is a fatal flaw."

Anke asked curiously, "What fatal flaw?"

“The enemy can sneak into the city by digging tunnels.”

"Really?" Anke pondered for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Leites City has no walls, why don't the enemy just sneak in by land?"

Celia: "..."

Celia: "Let's not talk about this anymore, you wouldn't understand. Let's go, let's go in together."

Anke: "..."

Do you think I'm a child?

The two passed the guards, who did not stop them, because it was Anke who had discovered this place.

Upon entering the house, Celia saw a hole under the dining table in the middle of the house.

The dining table had been moved aside. Celia leaned over to take a look and saw that there was only three meters below. She then jumped into the hole.

Anke followed closely behind and entered the cave as well.

The two quickly descended, and soon, Celia sensed a polluted fluctuation emanating from the cave wall.

He casually scraped away the soil on the cave wall and saw that there were indeed magic array patterns inside.

"Similar to the heretical stronghold in the Golden Apple Stone Forest, although there are some differences, they are all the same kind of magic array. Tsk tsk, has the Deep Sea Aid Association incorporated all the surrounding houses into the magic array?"

Suddenly, a terrible thought popped into Celia's head.

"No, maybe it's not just here. Many other places may have been secretly set up with magic arrays, just like that decoy magic array."

Anke was taken aback and asked, "You mean, there are many of these magic arrays throughout the entire city of Leites?"

Celia nodded: "It's very likely. They've set up this in every stronghold in the Golden Apple Stone Forest. There's no reason for them to overlook such a large settlement as Leites City."

The two quickly descended and soon arrived at the open space at the bottom.

Before they even entered, they could hear the sounds of battle coming from inside. Once inside, the two saw guards fighting against the heretics.

The man who appeared to be the captain of the guard saw the two arrive and recognized Anke. He quickly said, "Miss Anke, quick, come and help! These heretics are very strong. We need to deal with them as soon as possible!"

Anko looked at Celia, while Celia looked at the altar guarded by heretics in the center of the underground space.

A person was kneeling above, and wisps of demonic energy were seeping into his body.

His strength is steadily increasing, and he is now approaching the limit of the third tier.

Celia said, "Anke, you go help everyone, I'll deal with this magic circle."

Anke nodded: "Okay."

With that, he summoned the puppet and charged forward.

With her joining the battle, the guards were immediately relieved of pressure, and the scales of victory tipped in their favor.

Celia looked at the altar, took out her staff, and a light appeared on the staff.

The mage's hand has appeared, transforming into numerous fine threads that connect to the magic circle.

Celia had thoroughly researched the magic circle that used souls to enhance the power of the offerings within the Golden Apple Stone Forest.

Although there are some minor differences in this magic circle, it is basically the same.

It can be broken.

Numerous mages plunged into the nodes of the magic array, swiftly and decisively seizing control of its core.

Just as she was about to destroy it, she suddenly felt the direction of the pollution flow within the magic circle change. It went from converging on the offerings on the altar to spraying out from the offerings and dissipating outward through the magic circle.

The turning point is...

Celia suddenly looked at the 'offerings' on the altar.

"When I broke the magic array, I reached the fourth level, but instead of engaging in combat, I dispersed my power?"

Celia tried to use her mage's hand to follow the escaping pollution and see where it was converging.

A moment later, she felt a sudden openness before her, as if she were in a vast ocean. Her spiritual energy was like a speck of foam in the ocean, trying to find another speck of foam, but there was no way to find it.

At the end of this magic circle, it's like a stream flowing into a lake. There are many other streams around, but she has been swept into the vast lake and cannot find the source of the other streams.

Celia's mental energy was slowly stretched and lost.

A stronger spiritual force enveloped her spiritual power, pulling her back from the vast ocean.

Celia suddenly woke up.

Ross said calmly, "Just break this magic array. Don't try to use this magic array to locate other magic arrays. Each of these magic arrays is an individual entity, but when they come together, they form a larger magic array with the same function."

"Lord Ross means..."

Celia's heart raced; the thought filled her with dread.

Ross nodded: "That's right. The function of each small magic circle is to create a fourth-tier mage. When all the small magic circles are gathered together, their function is to create a fifth-tier mage."

"Fifth rank..."

Celia was breathing rapidly.

"This Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association is really too daring."

She looked at Ross: "Lord Ross, can I... break this magic circle?"

The girl spoke without confidence.

Ross chuckled lightly: "Of course. Every magic array has a core and a vulnerability. Go back to the shore; you'll find the answer you seek there."

Chapter 424 Princess Phil of the Abyss

The guards reported the incident up the chain of command, eventually alerting a fourth-tier mage who had been temporarily recalled from the coastal battlefield. Somewhat displeased, the mage looked at the guard captain and said, "What are you afraid of? Just go down and investigate."

The captain forced a smile but dared not answer, thinking to himself: What's the point of risking my life for 3 gold coins a month?

A fourth-tier mage is equivalent to a bishop in a temple, and in a city of the next tier, they can command an entire guard.

Leites City is the second largest city after Ember City. A fourth-tier city may not have the authority to command the guards of a region, but they can still lead a guild leader.

Fortunately, it was in the Ishtar Empire. If it were the Northern Alliance, the preparation time would have been wasted just from reporting from the second-tier squad leader to the third tier.

"Lord Dorland, that's it. I'm feeling a very uncomfortable aura from below, it's terrifying."

The fourth-tier mage named Dorland didn't care: "This place is close to the city lord's castle and temple. What could be so scary? At most, it's just a little disturbance by the heretics to attract our attention. They succeeded."

Dorland snorted: "However, they underestimate Duke Pharos's power. With him around, no amount of deep-sea monsters will be of any use."

Someone asked, "What if the heretics deliberately sent Duke Pharos to fight the deep-sea monsters?"

"You're so talkative. Do you think Duke Pharos wouldn't know about these things?"

Dorland glared at them and said, "You guys stay outside and keep watch. I'll be right back. Considering the possibility of a fight, you guys stay far away."

"As ordered!"

After giving the order, Dorland nodded and jumped into the tunnel.

Dorland slowly descended the tunnel, and the deeper he went, the more uncomfortable the feeling became.

Dorland was initially quite calm, but now he was no longer calm.

Upon reaching the very bottom, he sensed a terrifying aura that surpassed the upper limit of the fourth rank and reached the level of the fifth rank.

"Fifth rank..."

Dorland gripped his staff and sent the puppet to the front.

The distance between him and the puppet slowly increased.

After reaching the fourth tier, the sorcerer can share the puppet's vision; everything the puppet sees can be transmitted to the sorcerer through a mark.

After hesitating for a moment, Dorland decided to stop and let the puppet act alone, continuing on its way.

Although the puppet's vision is limited and it is not sensitive to magic and elements, it cannot fully perceive the threat posed by its opponent.

However, Dorland has already confirmed that the target has reached Tier 5 strength, so there's no need to make any further judgments. It's time to prepare to run away.

Through the puppet's vision, Dorland quickly saw the empty underground space to the west.

“These damned heretics are digging holes everywhere.”

Dorland cursed under his breath and looked at the altar in the center of the underground space.

When he saw the people on the altar, his eyes widened in horror.

"Miss Phil?!"

Dorland couldn't believe it. Just as he was about to get down, the puppet suddenly saw Phil, who had been keeping his eyes closed, open them with a red light flashing in them.

The next second, he lost connection with the puppet.

Without a doubt, the puppet is in grave danger.

Dorland abandoned the idea of ​​going down and rushed up without hesitation.

Although he didn't know what had happened or why Phil was at this clearly pagan altar, his priority now was to stay alive.

What's the point of seeking the truth if you're already dead?

boom!

A strong energy fluctuation came from below, followed by an explosion that sent Dorland, who was trying to escape, flying into the air along with a large amount of dirt.

Fortunately, as a fourth-tier mage, Dorand was tough and resilient, and with the thick earth barrier protecting him, he did not die, but he did suffer serious injuries.
