Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

The puppet is a life attribute, which is similar to the holy attribute. The effect of using the purification spell is not reduced and remains very good.

boom!

The dragon rider captain's ice sword struck the thick ice shield, causing the entire earth to tremble.

but--

blocked!

Celia stacked a thick ice shield, managing to block his attack.

“Undoubtedly a heretic. The attack power isn’t as strong as a regular fourth-tier mage because they want to hide their corrupted power. If they use corrupted power, I definitely won’t be able to stop them,” Celia thought.

"I'm here to help you!"

Anke's soft shout came from the side.

A bunch of potions were thrown over, and as they exploded in the air, they landed on the dragon rider captain.

His body was immediately covered in all sorts of messy colors, as if he had been given all sorts of negative effects.

With a flick of her staff, Celia unleashed a surge of ice magic, rapidly forming clusters of ice balls created by the Ice Rain spell outside her ice shield, which shot towards the nearby dragon knight captain.

The dragon rider captain's sword was enchanted with ice, and he could create an ice ball with each strike.

"burst!"

Boom boom boom!

The numerous explosions caused a layer of icy fog to slowly accumulate in the area.

Despite the volcanic eruption, everyone felt a chill.

At this moment, the light of the purification spell was nearing its end. Combined with Anke's covert actions and their destruction of all the heretical strongholds, the poison buff on everyone was dispelled, and they slowly recovered.

They watched in shock as Celia fought the Dragon Knight Captain. The power of the spells was far beyond what a third-tier character could use, causing them to swallow hard.

After calming down, everyone was filled with lingering fear.

"Oh my god, what was I just doing?"

"I actually want to fight a dragon rider, and I even think it's heroic?"

"That's terrible, I could never do such a thing."

"I almost died here."

"Was it this young lady who saved us?"

"What exactly is going on? Can someone tell me?"

Nobody knows what happened.

These are all mages below the third rank. They have no resistance to the poison from the witch of the Tower of Fallen and have no idea what happened.

Anke slowly stopped releasing the purification spell.

She glanced at the other sorcerers who were rushing over, and after thinking for a moment, decided not to purify them yet, but to wait until there were enough of them before performing a unified removal.

She looked thoughtfully at the dragon rider captain who was fighting with Celia but couldn't unleash his normal fourth-tier strength.

"This strength doesn't seem like that of a normal fourth-tier cultivator. Could it be that he's a heretic who doesn't dare to expose the corrupted power within him?"

She adjusted her glasses and manipulated the puppet to join the battle.

With her arrival, the Dragon Rider Captain immediately felt the pressure.

"I'm a fourth-tier mage, how could I be overwhelmed by two third-tier mages?!"

"Damn it, you forced me to do this."

A red light appeared in his eyes.

"As long as we finish the battle quickly, we won't be exposed. Yes, just for once."

Chapter 489 A mere fatal injury

The Dragon Knight Captain has summoned the puppet.

His eyes were bloodshot, no longer holding back; beneath his terrifying fourth-tier aura, there was also a faint aura of corruption.

They are pressing on Celia and Anko from all sides, with Celia being the primary target.

His undisguised fourth-tier strength allowed him to switch from defense to offense, and he began to dominate the two opponents.

The spell's shockwave forced the dragon riders watching the battle back to the city walls, where they were protected by the magic circle. Other mages were forced to retreat far away, forced to stand at a distance to avoid being caught in the aftershocks and dying from the unknown area-of-effect attack.

"Die!"

The Dragon Rider Captain drew his puppet sword, unleashing a sword aura that cleaved the earth in its path before crashing into the ice shield combo prepared by Celia.

boom!

The sword energy exploded, shattering the thick ice shield. The remaining shockwaves all rushed towards Celia, sending her flying backward and crashing into a boulder dozens of meters away.

The puppet wanted to press its advantage, but suddenly its body slowed down. Then, some potions exploded nearby, stopping it.

Over there, Celia got up from the ground, catching her breath. The natural healing brought by the life-type magic puppet was rapidly healing her injuries. The total amount of magic power brought by the two deep divine realms was no less than that of a fourth-tier mage, and it was not disrupted by the dragon knight captain's attack.

After a while, Celia felt that her injuries had mostly healed.

She breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"The ability of the Guardian Angel allows me to have the puppet absorb some of the damage I take, and then rely on the puppet's powerful regenerative abilities to heal myself. In addition, the Ice Shield absorbs most of the damage, allowing me to withstand a full-force attack from a normal fourth-tier enemy... It's all thanks to the Purification spell that weakened his spell power."

She might be a little hesitant when facing a normal fourth-tier mage, but she wasn't afraid of a corrupted heretic.

The Purification spell is equivalent to continuously applying a negative effect that reduces all of the opponent's attributes by more than half. The specific degree of weakening depends on the difference in strength. Against a fourth-tier opponent, it can only weaken them by about 10% to 20%, which is quite a lot.

With this information, Celia's confidence immediately returned.

"With Anke's help, even if we can't defeat this fourth-tier heretic, we can at least beat him to a pulp!"

A portion of the power of a fourth-tier heretic comes from the amplification caused by demonic energy contamination; without a counter-purification spell, this amplification is terrifying.

Of course, with the purification spell, fourth-tier heretics are like little brothers, completely crushed by their peers.

"If even a third-tier cultivator can weaken heretics so much, then making the purification technique public is a wise choice."

Celia thought to herself.

She can even be distracted during battle.

Celia's publicly revealed special purification technique has already begun to have some impact on the Holy Court.

The most obvious improvement is in the efficiency of pollution purification.

But Celia was still somewhat dissatisfied.

She wants to move on to the next stage—

It will be made public to the world.

Although this purification spell has higher learning requirements than the ordinary purification spell, that only applies to mages below the fourth rank. For those above the fourth rank, it is easy to learn.

If this spell becomes widespread, the heretics' advantage will disappear, and they will likely be forced to abandon the corruption of this power from the abyss.

The benefits are obvious: pollution will no longer plague the world, and heretics will enter a period of weakness, either lying low or being quickly eliminated.

There are also downsides. The most obvious downside is that the Holy Court's income will decline. One of the Holy Court's sources of income is generating revenue by purifying sorcerers of pollution using purification spells. Since Celia's purification spell is more efficient than the one used by the Holy Court, it will definitely have an impact.

As for other disadvantages, Celia's limited perspective prevented her from seeing them clearly.

She decided to wait until she had more time and consulted Ross before deciding whether to do it.

just now……

Celia smiled slightly as she watched the dragon rider captain gradually become more violent and lose his mind under the influence of demonic energy.

"Let's see how long you can last."

The fourth tier still relies heavily on the puppet, even more so than the third tier. This stage means that one can develop a trace of the puppet's heart, which can enhance the puppet's strength and spell power by a level.

It is precisely because of the comprehensive improvement of the fourth tier that the gap between the third and fourth tiers is greater than that between the fourth and fifth tiers.

However, the Dragon Rider Captain felt that his fourth rank was like a joke.

Even though he was on the offensive, dominating Celia, Anko, and the puppet, he felt restricted and constrained.

Despite each attack causing the two to retreat, and sometimes even the spells could penetrate Celia's defenses and inflict some damage on her.

However, despite spitting out blood and seemingly suffering a serious injury, she stood up within seconds and continued to hold the opponent back as if nothing had happened.

This time, Celia did not use any tactics or a large number of scrolls to suppress the enemy. Just like a normal battle between mages, the two sides went back and forth.

If she's at level four, then it's fine.

But she's at level three!

Even if they have helpers, they are only at the third rank.

It's difficult for two mages to form a powerful combo that poses a threat to a fourth-tier mage. Celia's performance seems to be that of an ordinary third-tier mage... Aside from being durable, her Ice Shield combo's defensive strength is comparable to a fourth-tier spell, and it can always negate the impact of the spell.

Both the dragon riders guarding the area and the mage watching were stunned.

They couldn't help but wonder if the difference between the third and fourth tiers wasn't as big as the legends suggested.

From the observation deck near the wall, Pamisa and Anthony watched all this with excitement.

Parmisa is a third-tier mage, and she knows the difference between third and fourth tiers. After the conflict between Celia and the dragon knight captain, she asked Anthony to record it.

She was a little nervous at first.

Later, seeing that the fourth-tier mage couldn't do anything to Celia and her companion no matter what he did, she became excited.

"Travel is indeed very meaningful. Without this trip, we would never have seen the limits of a third-tier mage!"

Pamisa exclaimed.

"Miss Celia is amazing, no wonder she's the league champion."

Anthony looked at Anke, who was partnering with Celia, and said thoughtfully, "She's probably facing her teammate, Miss Anke, who is also a champion."

Pamisa was taken aback, then turned around and asked in surprise, "Really?"

Anthony said, "It's just a guess. The league restricts the number of potions and scrolls that can be used. I saw Miss Anke take out a potion. She is also water-based. Her puppet is a little different, but it's similar. Her fighting style is also similar. It's most likely that it's Miss Anke."

Pamisa suddenly realized: "I see, Anthony is indeed very powerful, but..."

She abruptly changed the subject, her eyes flashing dangerously: "Why are you so interested in other girls?"

Anthony's expression remained unchanged. "Because you are a fan of Miss Celia, I am willing to learn about her and her teammates for you and provide you with timely updates on your idol."

Pamisa blushed.

Meanwhile, the battle on the field changed.

Chapter 490 The magic circle was destroyed? It has nothing to do with Celia.

When one uses power from the abyss, one's sanity is eroded.

The longer it is used, the more it is eroded, and the more rational it will gradually lose.

Losing one's mind means the attack becomes increasingly violent, but... without any strategy.

Like an out-of-control dump truck, it is incredibly powerful, but very easy to dodge.

The Dragon Rider Captain's aggression gradually increased, and his spells became stronger and stronger, but Celia and Anko became more and more adept at dealing with him.

"This is Dragon Island's home ground. Although he is a heretic, he is also a member of the Dragon Rider Legion. Killing him is definitely not an option. The best way is to stall him and make him completely lose his mind."

Celia squinted at the crazed dragon rider captain. "The rest is none of our business!"

Mad heretics don't distinguish between friend and foe; they only distinguish between contaminated and uncontaminated.

They will attack any life they see, releasing demonic energy to corrupt everything.

As the effects of pollution deepen, the forces from the abyss gradually replace the original forces, making them even stronger.

However, purification techniques can counteract pollution.

As the pollution intensifies, the purification spells cast by the puppets by Celia become increasingly effective at weakening the Dragon Knight Captain.

In other words, the stronger the Dragon Knight Captain, the weaker the Dragon Knight Captain.
