Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

Although Celia had only been there for a day before the temple was demolished, she still remembered it.

As Celia resumed her healing, her exquisite purification and healing magic, along with the life magic from the puppet, spread among the townspeople through word of mouth.

The next day, a long line formed at Celia's side, mostly with patients suffering from hidden ailments that Vanessa couldn't cure.

Even viral diseases can be forcibly cured by Celia through her life magic.

There's no way to regrow missing limbs right now.

After three days of treatment, the entire Star Ash Town knew of Celia's healing abilities and she was dubbed the 'Divine Healer'.

It wasn't until two weeks later.

Celia prepared to leave.

Chapter 461 Delivery Mission?

"Are you getting ready to leave already?"

Millie was very reluctant to part with him.

Since Celia returned last year, the temple has been doing better and better, with generous donations coming in from the Southern City.

It has a sense of destruction followed by reconstruction.

Originally, the temple's deacons were mobile, because the temple had no property, and Vanessa's treatments were free. They relied entirely on donations to pay salaries, and the previous deacons all left after becoming sorcerers within the temple.

If it weren't for the unexpected incident caused by Celia, Millie and Pigs would most likely have run away as well.

But now, with Vanessa's rank revealed, the Southern City and the Holy Court have increased their support for the Starshine Temple, and have spare money to pay them salaries. Although the new temple is bigger and they have to work harder to clean, it doesn't matter since they have more money.

The thought of leaving has long since vanished; all that remains is to work diligently and enjoy a leisurely life.

The two, lacking in magical talent, had passed their period of rapid growth and were unlikely to make a name for themselves if they ventured out into the world.

Celia, carrying a small backpack with a rabbit charm on it, waved to Millie.

"I'm going on an adventure now. Stay home and wait for me with Vanessa."

"Aren't you going to stay a couple more days?" Vanessa asked reluctantly.

“I’ll return on the day of the God’s Birthday. I need to find some things to prepare for my advancement to the fourth rank,” Celia said.

She was also a little reluctant to part with it.

I've been staying at the Temple of Star Ash for a long time.

Both Southland City and Star Ash Town are located in relatively remote areas. Even though they border the Elven race, they are not popular cities as trading hubs for the Elven race.

Because this place is separated from the Elven race by the Star Spirit Tree, and the Star Spirit Tree area is too large, there is only one narrow road to get here without crossing the Star Spirit Tree, which is far inferior to other neighboring cities and cannot compare to those rune warships that sail on rivers and seas.

To find materials grown in other empires, Celia must leave Starash and travel to the larger cities to search for the materials she needs.

While I'm at it, I'll also travel and see the vibrancy of other cities.

Ross set a requirement for her: to obtain all the materials before the start of the semester, and then, with the help of the resources provided by the school after the semester begins, to accumulate strength and prepare for the Ascendant Trial.

Reluctantly bidding farewell to Vanessa, Celia boarded her flying broom and left Star Ash, slowly making her way to Southland.

When they attended the banquet earlier, Celia asked Punil if he had the materials she needed. Punil sold her some, and said he could get the rest if it took a little time.

Before leaving, she went to get it.

Upon arriving in Southern City, Celia contacted Punil, who soon arrived with the temple bishop.

After the two completed the transaction, the bishop asked, "Celia, where are you going?"

"We're going to visit the Blue Dragon Empire," Celia said.

"The Blue Dragon Empire?"

The two exchanged a glance, and the bishop asked, "Shall we go to their capital, Dragon Island?"

"Go, what's wrong?" Celia asked, startled.

The bishop stroked his chin and said, "I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"What is it? Please speak."

"Could you send a letter to Diana, who is studying at the Blue Dragon Magic Academy?"

“Diana?” Celia tilted her head.

“My child, Diana, is a year younger than you. For some reason, she hasn’t come back this year,” the bishop said with great sorrow.

Celia asked, puzzled, "Why would your child go to study in the Blue Dragon Empire? Shouldn't bishops of the Holy Court only be allowed to study at the Ishtar Magic School?"

The bishop coughed and said, "Diana went with her mother, there was nothing I could do."

Celia's expression turned strange as she quickly imagined a family drama unfolding in her mind.

The bishop seemed to know what she was thinking and quickly said, "Don't worry, I am wholeheartedly devoted to the Holy See, and I have no problems with Diana's mother. We just had a minor disagreement, and she doesn't want to see me."

Celia nodded: "I understand, but how did Your Excellency know I was going to Dragon Island?"

The bishop was clearly prepared; otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly sent him to deliver the message.

The bishop said, "I contacted Vanessa; it was Vanessa who told me."

"Ok."

Vanessa also occasionally keeps in touch with the bishop and lord of Southern City. After all, they are both fourth-tier mages and have a lot to talk about.

Celia had no intention of hiding her whereabouts, and Vanessa naturally told her when her two good friends asked.

Celia said, "Sending a message is fine, but is there anything else I need to include?"

The bishop shook his head: "No need, I've written everything I need to say in the letter."

As he spoke, he took out a letter, which seemed to contain something else besides the letter itself.

Celia took it and touched it, immediately knowing what was inside.

gold.

No wonder they specifically asked me to deliver it; they put gold coins in the envelope.

Celia thought to herself.

The bishop knew he was a saint and that he wouldn't covet his gold coins, so he was at ease.

After chatting with the two for a while, Celia took her leave.

She didn't even rest in Southern Border City or buy some dry food before leaving the city via a teleportation device and arriving at the city closest to the Blue Dragon Empire.

Only a few cities in the empire have access to directional teleportation devices, and passage is strictly controlled.

Celia wouldn't specifically choose to use it; cross-border teleportation devices are more expensive than domestic ones, and she couldn't afford them.

Let's just fly and get there.

"Although flying is a bit slower than using a patrol car, you can do whatever you want without having to report anything."

Celia had no intention of going through any immigration registration process, as all her actions within the Blue Dragon Empire would inevitably be monitored by the Blue Dragon Empire.

The Blue Dragon Empire definitely knows my identity. If they have any ideas and arrest me, I'll be left with nowhere to turn.

After all, back in August, she had made the Blue Dragon Empire's participating team cry.

"I wonder how that friend is doing now."

Celia muttered to herself.

When they received their awards, the only male member of the Blue Dragon Magic Academy team looked quite grim; it was unclear whether he had even finished grooming his 'wings'.

If things go wrong, Blue Dragon Magic Academy might blame him for his boasting, exposing him on their capital, Dragon Island, and he'd be caught.

So, we still need to disguise ourselves a bit!

"So, Lord Ross, can you now tell me why we're going to the Blue Dragon Empire?"

"Flying through the mountains on the way to the border of the Blue Dragon Empire," Celia asked.

Ross's phantom floated beside her, and upon hearing this, he smiled slightly and said, "Don't you want to see what that classmate who took the Heart of the Puppet is planning to do?"

Celia was taken aback. "You mean, Shalin is on Dragon Island in the Blue Dragon Empire right now? What is she trying to do all this way?"

Ross said, "Who knows? I can only sense the location of the Puppet Heart, but I don't know what she's going to do with it."

Of course, it was actually Ethel who sensed it.

Chapter 462 Ross's Conjecture

Celia's classmate, Shalin, secretly took away the cornerstone that maintained the underground base's magic array. Not only Celia, but even Ross was curious about what she was going to do with it.

He couldn't sense the fragments of divinity, but Ethel could, because they were his. As long as Ross helped him tear open a crack in the seal, he could project his consciousness into these fragments of divinity.

Of course, projecting consciousness carries risks. If the one holding the divine fragment is a god, he will definitely be detected, and if he is not careful, he may even be imprisoned in the divine fragment and unable to escape.

Just like when Ross obtained his divine fragment, he didn't dare to come over and take a look.

Only after confirming through various means did they call the Deep Sea Aid Society to come and take away the fragments of divinity.

The result was obvious: he was caught by Ross and sent directly to the Sealed Land's private quarters.

"I remember that the super rare Puppet Heart cannot be touched casually, and even I couldn't avoid it. Why is it that Shalin seems to be able to take it away at will as if nothing happened?" Celia asked.

Ross glanced at her, knowing what she was thinking, but didn't care. He said, "Because she received the Sea God's inheritance, and that Puppet Heart is related to the Sea God."

"Oh."

Celia finally confirmed her guess and smiled with satisfaction.

She had long suspected that the 'Ultra-Rare Puppet Heart' was actually the divine essence of a god, but she wasn't sure whose divine essence Ross had asked her to find.

The only connection I can make to the sea god is through the name "Deep Sea" from the Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association, but I'm not entirely sure.

After Benovia took the fragment of divinity, she further confirmed it, but the final solid evidence was still missing.

Charlene is the final piece of solid evidence.

If she had just come into contact with the fragments of divinity and already knew that the Heart of the Puppet was actually the divine essence of the Sea God, she might not have been able to accept it.

But now, under Ross's guidance, she has slowly accepted it.

After all, even the god-king Zeus was demoted to a demon.

If even the King of Gods is like this, then the Twelve Olympians have nothing to be ashamed of.

Besides, she's currently closest to the evil god.

"Should we go and retrieve that Puppet Heart?" Celia asked.

She confirmed that the 'Ultra-Rare Puppet Heart' was a divine entity, but she still habitually referred to it as the Puppet Heart because Ross hadn't told her directly, and she was afraid that she would be laughed at by Ross if she guessed wrong...

Ross already knew that Celia knew about the fragments of the divine power, but since Celia didn't ask, he didn't bother to tell her.

“Let’s see how it goes. I need to know what she wants to do with it first,” Ross said.

He paused for a moment, then added, "Perhaps it has something to do with the summoning Jonathan mentioned."

Celia was taken aback, then a thought struck her. "Lord Ross, are you saying that Sharon is backed by an apostle?"

Ross said, "Maybe."

If that weren't the case, he wouldn't have been interested in specifically reclaiming the sea god's divine essence.

After all, it's only one-tenth of the quantity, so it won't have a significant impact on the magic circle that summons him.

Phil is still recovering, and the connection hasn't been established yet, so there's no way to attempt a summoning. Therefore, Ross isn't in a hurry.

During their conversation, Celia slowly landed on the ground to rest and replenish her energy.

"It's quite far from the border of the Blue Dragon Empire. It'll take about three hours to fly there. I'm so tired," the girl sighed.

Ross chuckled and said, "How about I speed things up for you? A three-hour journey can be completed in 30 minutes at most."

Celia immediately shook her head in refusal: "No, I want to enjoy the scenery along the way, not experience the feeling of vomiting..."

As she was speaking, she suddenly sensed something, quickly stuffed the bread into her mouth, picked up her staff, and looked towards the depths of the jungle on the other side of the river.
