The girl kept moving, and her magic was being rapidly depleted.
Fortunately, she entered the deep divine realm twice; otherwise, it would have been difficult to maintain the continuous output of third-tier spells, even with a magic refinement level of over 100%.
At first, Galton thought that Celia's magical attacks wouldn't last long, but now he has put that idea out of his mind.
Feeling his condition worsening, Galton experienced intense emotional fluctuations.
His plea slowly turned into anger.
"You forced me to do this, you forced me to do this!"
Faced with a life-or-death crisis, he no longer considered any permanent damage and unleashed all his magical power. Just like Carmela had done before, he used his immense magical power to create an impact that shattered all of Celia's spells.
Behind him, the runes on the house flickered and shook a few times, almost destroying the house itself.
Celia was also affected, and she took several steps back before stopping.
The next moment, Galton summoned his puppet, clutched his chest, and stared coldly at Celia.
"Is this a move that even a fourth-tier mage can use? That's so cheating!" she thought to herself, complaining to Ross.
Ross chuckled and said, "Wrong. This is the 'Turtle Aura' that all mages can use. It releases all the magic power in the body in one breath, forming a magic storm that affects the elements around the body. The disadvantage is obvious: it will cause permanent damage, and the consequences include, but are not limited to, rank regression, never advancing again, and permanent reduction in refinement."
"To put it bluntly, this is essentially a last-ditch effort. After use, it grants a brief period of 'invincibility,' nullifying all spells of the same or lower rank in the surrounding area, giving you a brief respite. It's not very useful; you can only use it when you're controlled to death. It's not as good as an ice mage's Ice Barrier."
Celia didn't have time to ask about the Ice Barrier, because as Galton used his last bit of magic to summon the puppet, her crisis began.
"Even without magic to use spells, fourth-tier magic puppets still possess extremely high spell resistance and terrifying attack power, so we must be careful."
Celia thought cautiously.
She looked at Galton, only to see him scrambling and crawling towards the house while ordering the puppet to rush over.
Celia looked at him and smiled gently.
Do you think you can get in?
The house and courtyard were both under the influence of a magic circle.
Galton spent a lot of money to add an extra layer of protection to the house. The magic circle was very sturdy, and Celia could sense that it was powered by a powerful, pure magic crystal.
It is fully capable of resisting a fourth-tier mage.
This magic circle is not just a protective magic circle; it is also engraved throughout the entire house, controlling everything inside.
It's also on the gate.
and so--
A thought struck Celia, and she immediately used the magic circle to lock the door shut.
Galton rushed to the door and pulled hard, but couldn't open it.
He was stunned.
Chapter 471 Your magic array is quite good; it's mine now.
Galton had no idea what was happening. He hadn't realized that the magic circle had been controlled by Celia, and could only curse the array designer in his heart.
He then turned around, using his staff as a crutch, and looked at Celia: "So what? Even without magic, the puppet can easily kill you."
The golem has a backup energy source, which is an arcane furnace that stores magic power, and can be used to fight for a few minutes.
Celia has no intention of confronting the puppet.
As the puppet picked up the staff and cast a spell, she activated the magic circle in the courtyard.
As something Galton spent a lot of money to set up, the magic circle can be used both externally and internally, since he puts slaves here and naturally has to be prepared for internal situations.
At least it can protect him from being killed in a slave riot.
Although the probability is small, he is mainly guarding against competitors.
“Your magic circle is pretty good, it’s mine now.” Celia chuckled.
boom!
The puppet's attack struck the magic circle, but the invisible barrier remained unshaken despite the ripples.
Galton was stunned.
"This...this is impossible! How could you..."
Celia smiled slightly: "I forgot to introduce myself. I am a mage and also a formation master."
"Isn't it normal for array masters to be able to control magic arrays?"
Is this normal?
When he encountered a blind spot in his knowledge, Galton was at a loss.
Even the puppet's attacks stopped.
Celia's voice drifted over, like a deadly scythe: "If you don't attack me, then I'll attack you."
As they spoke, ice balls formed from the icy rain rushed towards them one after another.
Galton realized what was happening and quickly ordered the puppet to continue its attack.
He frantically raised his hand to activate the bracelet, preparing to call for help.
Just then, a cold light flashed, and the puppet that hadn't participated in the battle since being summoned by Celia suddenly appeared, wielding the sharp Myriad Lights Sword, and shattered his bracelet with a single strike.
The sorcerer is enhanced by magic, making him very difficult to kill, but the bracelet is different.
Although this thing is very sturdy, if you attack it in a targeted manner, it's no different from an ordinary bracelet and can be easily broken.
Under normal circumstances, the bracelet is close to the mage's skin and is difficult to hit under the protection of the mage and mage robes. But if the mage wants to use the bracelet, it is a different story, as it is equivalent to exposing it.
"Have you forgotten that I also have a magic puppet?"
Celia's voice came through.
Celia had been on guard against this move.
The magic circle did not have the ability to block the Protoss network, and she had been keeping an eye on Galton.
This is Dragon Island, the headquarters of the Dragon Throne Merchant Guild. If Galton needs help, their reinforcements will arrive in less than three minutes.
We can't let him succeed in getting help.
Bah!
The bracelet fell to the ground with a soft thud.
Galton looked up at the magnified sword of lights from countless homes, his eyes filled with terror.
"No, don't kill me! I'm from the Dragon Throne Merchant Guild, and my brother is from Dragon Island..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Myriad Lights Sword had already pierced his heart, unleashing a torrent of magic that rapidly froze his body from within.
His life force rapidly faded, and a look of resentment appeared in Galton's eyes, which slowly dimmed.
With his death, the puppet stopped attacking and entered standby mode.
Celia walked over.
"No matter who you are or how powerful your background is, now that I've caught you, I'm not going to let you live."
Ross's phantom appeared, nodded, and acknowledged Celia's words: "Perhaps some nobles are innocent, but none of the slave traders were innocent when they were all killed."
Slave owners may not deserve to die, but slave traders deserve to die.
Celia felt no pressure at all about killing Galton.
"If it weren't me, but some other ordinary girl, she might already be on the black market, sold to some nobleman, forced into a slave contract, and become his pet..."
She is neither the first nor the last.
"It's still too weak."
Celia looked at the idle puppet and examined it with her mage's hand, discovering that apart from the puppet's heart, the rest of the puppet was marked with some kind of mark.
"With this mark, if it is used or sold, it will send a location once it is activated by magic. It seems that it can only be destroyed."
Celia slowly condensed ice into the shape of a person in front of the puppet, then controlled the ice figure to attack the puppet, activating the puppet's automatic defense system and causing the puppet's magic power to be rapidly depleted.
A moment later, the magic was completely exhausted, the puppet's eyes lost their luster, and its armor dimmed. Only then did Celia control her puppet to step forward, open the puppet's chest cavity, and take out the puppet's heart.
"Does the linking device also have positioning runes? Why not install a positioning rune on the Puppet Heart?" Celia pouted, removed the linking device without hesitation, and put the Puppet Heart back into her ring.
The Fire-type Puppet Heart costs more than five times as much as the Water-type one.
The fire element possesses extremely strong offensive capabilities, and can also dispel the cold and ignite campfires, making it the most popular element in both combat and daily life.
"This Puppet Heart looks to be of good quality; it should sell for at least 80 gold coins."
Celia enveloped the puppet entirely in ice mist, freezing it. After repeating this process multiple times, she successfully brittled it. Then, she used the Myriad Lights Sword to smash it, destroying all its structures.
After she finished, she controlled the magic circle to open the door and went into the house.
Guided by the magic circle patterns, she found the secret compartment that opened the basement.
As the entrance to the basement appeared, a voice rang out.
"We heard fighting sounds coming from up above, plus... who are you?"
boom!
The ice blade pierced the speaker's neck, causing an explosion that instantly killed him.
There was no one on the ground, and the entrance to receive slaves was very well hidden.
However, underground, dozens of first and second-tier mages were guarding it, including a third-tier one.
All of these people were sent by Celia to repent before the gods.
Only after resolving the issue did she look at the structure of the basement.
The basement corridor is shaped like a cross, with cells on both sides of the cross, each holding dozens of people.
Celia suddenly appeared, killed all the guards, and stunned everyone in the room.
They stared in horror at Celia, who resembled the Grim Reaper.
Underneath her disguise, Celia looked quite ordinary, which ironically instilled fear in them.
Celia sensed the condition of all the people who were imprisoned.
"There are 21 people in total: 14 ordinary people, 5 first-tier mages, and 2 second-tier mages."
Celia looked into one of the rooms and focused on two orcs inside, who were trembling and clinging to each other.
Both of these beastmen have cat ears, one male and one female, and they are very young, around 14 years old. It's unclear whether they are siblings or a young couple.
They were the two second-tier mages they sensed.
Chapter 472 Cat-eared Girl Slave
Ice fog spread across the locks of all the rooms.
As Celia gently clenched her fist, all the locks exploded and were instantly destroyed.
The girl's voice reached everyone's ears:
"You are free now. Come out. My puppet has prepared some clothes for you up there. Change into them and leave this place. It would be best if you left Dragon Island and never came back."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with ecstasy.
"Great! They're our saviors!"
"My prayers were answered! The gods have sent messengers to save us!"
"Gods, thank you for saving us!"
"..."
The sound of doors opening echoed from every room, and everyone rushed out, excitedly looking at Celia.
Someone asked cautiously, "Can we really leave?"
Celia looked at the person who spoke; it was one of the two cat-eared girls.
She nodded: "Of course."
