Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

Anke's eyes lit up. "So that's how it is. Celia just went around in circles and came back?"

Celia nodded.

Of course, Ross was the designated driver; it had nothing to do with her.

Although Ross drove her the whole way, so she didn't have a direct experience of it, she was still a little scared watching the ground rushing past. Fortunately, she was able to hide that feeling.

Upon hearing that they were still around Dragon Island, Anke also put aside the 'senior student' who had made her eat dirt and the strange feeling she had when she grabbed Celia earlier.

She got back into the aircraft and called to Celia, "It's hard to see from the ground, why don't we look at it from the air?"

"It's easy for the dragon riders to spot us at high altitudes," Celia said.

"That……"

"However, I can set up a concealment array for your aircraft."

"That's great!"

Before long, the alchemy bottle took to the air again, reaching a high altitude, and soon the Dragon Island could be seen in the distance.

From the outside, the view above Dragon Island is even more spectacular.

The volcanic ash collection array on Dragon Island is like a funnel, with the volcanic area being the opening in the funnel.

In other words, the magic circle around the volcano is actually a pipe under the funnel.

After the various substances ejected from the volcano fly into the high atmosphere, they are trapped by the upper part of the funnel, deposited, and await collection.

The barrier of the magic circle is invisible, but the volcanic ash is tangible; the shape of the funnel is clearly visible, and it also looks a bit like a mushroom.

If viewed as a mushroom, its cap covers a large area of ​​Dragon Island and the surrounding area.

Meanwhile, many sorcerers could be seen flying above the funnel, collecting the material ejected from the volcano.

"so big."

It feels spectacular inside, and even more spectacular from the outside.

Both of them were captivated by the beautiful scenery.

Unfortunately, it's getting dark now, and they don't have much time to enjoy it.

They decided to just find a place to camp and see what happens tomorrow.

Just as they were searching for a place, Celia's expression changed, and she said, "We don't need to search slowly anymore. We have some friends nearby. Let's go find them."

Anke was taken aback. "Is it the friend who greeted you earlier?"

Celia nodded. "Yes, they left Dragon Island too."

With that, Celia set off for Pamisa's location.

Before long, the two arrived at the small camp where Parmesan and Anthony were stationed.

Besides them, there were two catgirls.

They spotted Celia and Anko and rushed over in surprise. Miao Lan grabbed Celia's skirt, looked up, and blinked her eyes.

"That's wonderful, they're my benefactor!"

Celia asked curiously, "How did you end up with Pamisa?"

“We noticed that you seemed to have interacted with these two cat-people friends before, so we went to find them and asked them to leave with us,” Pamisa said as she walked over.

She looked at the two of them, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Anthony said something big might happen on Tianlong Island, so he dragged me out. I didn't expect you two to come out too."

Celia looked up at Anthony, who was setting up camp, and seemed to be deep in thought.

After so long, Anthony finally managed to barely advance to the level of a second-tier mage.

Was he just being cautious, or did he know something?

Celia decided to ask.

She chatted with the two catgirls and Pamisa, introduced Anko, and then went to Anthony's side, released the puppet, and let it set up camp next to their tent.

She casually asked, "Anthony, is something going to happen tomorrow? You guys are even skipping the hotel and heading straight out for camping?"

Without looking up, Anthony said, "Tomorrow is the time when the legendary treasure will be fully formed. There will definitely be powerful high-level mages making a move then, and there is a high probability that we will be affected within Dragon Island. I don't want to be one of the lucky spectators who get randomly killed, so I dragged Pamisa out with me."

Pamisa was watching Anthony, and when she saw him still doing his work while speaking, without even looking at Celia, she couldn't help but smirk.

Anke noticed Pamisa's expression, shook his head, and sighed.

People in love really don't miss any details, unlike Anko, who dedicated her life to alchemy and the gods and never had such troubles.

Speaking of gods, Anke recalled Ross's descent, which gave her a boost and helped her resolve the trial of ascension.

Receiving divine blessings during the Ascending Trial is a good thing; legend has it that before the Age of Calamity, lucky individuals favored by the gods would encounter such a thing.

But why that particular deity?

I think about it from time to time now.

Damn it, my thinking has been contaminated.

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises

On the other side, Celia didn't get any information, so she gave up and let the puppets set up camp under the automatic operation of the Puppet Heart. She then ran over and chatted with Pamisa, Anko, and the two catgirls.

Although there are two male creatures here, one of them is even more beautiful than a girl, which makes Anthony feel a bit out of place.

So Parmisa made him work as a laborer, preparing dinner for everyone.

The atmosphere on Dragon Island became serious, but here it was unusually relaxed.

“Pamisa, do you want to try your luck tomorrow too?” Celia asked.

Pamisa shook her head: "We won't touch it. The essence of fire is not something we can enjoy. Anthony also said that after watching the treasure's birth process tomorrow, we should leave immediately and get away from the center of the conflict."

Celia nodded.

Parmisa was a bit headstrong, but Anthony was cautious.

In a foreign land, Anthony's mind could make Pamisa feel much safer.

Although Pamisa could take on three Carmelo Anthonys, if they were to split up and venture around the world, Pamisa's survival rate would probably be ten times lower than Anthony's.

They especially enjoy seeing all sorts of spectacular sights.

In the magical world, most wonders are accompanied by deadly dangers. Without a reliable strategist, even a third-tier strength is not enough.

While the other second and third-tier mages were trying their luck to see if they could get a share of the spoils from the conflict among the high-level mages, they watched from afar as the mages fought over the cauldron, took a picture, and left satisfied.

Celia looked at the catgirl duo, "And you two?"

Miao Bai said, "We're leaving tomorrow too."

"Hmph, Meow White wanted to try and see if she could get the Essence of Fire, but Mr. Anthony dissuaded her."

Miaolan hands on hips.

"Stupid Meow White, is that something we can even dream of? You're not even as good as Meow Blue!"

"What if we find it on our way back tomorrow?" Miao Bai said indignantly.

"Hmph, I'd rather believe your benefactor found it than believe you found it yourself."

Anthony said, "I have a feeling that what happens on Dragon Island tomorrow might not be so simple. Miss Celia said that the heretics are taking action, and their actions tomorrow will probably cost Dragon Island a lot. I'm thinking of leaving soon to avoid being affected."

Pamisa said, "We need to see at least one thing to be satisfied. Didn't you say before that there are many high-level mages in there? Watching the battles of high-level mages will be good for our improvement."

Anthony nodded, then said helplessly, "Okay, but we need to step back a little further so we can use the phonograph."

“Okay.” Parmisa didn’t object.

Throughout the journey, Anthony's advice helped the two escape danger on several occasions.

Pamisa looked at Celia and Anko, "I wonder about Miss Celia and Miss Anko..."

“We think the same way you do,” Celia said.

That wasn't a lie. Although she didn't know how many there were, there were indeed many high-level mages on the top of the volcano before. They disdained picking up trash and just reached out and took it directly from the trash vents, taking the best of everything.

They chatted until late at night. After Celia directed the puppets to set up a magic circle, she bid farewell to everyone and they went back to rest.

Nothing was said that night, and the next day arrived peacefully.

Today, Longdao Volcano is receiving more attention than its eruption.

When Celia and Anko flew into the sky in their flying vehicle, they discovered that there were also many flying vehicles in the surrounding high altitude.

As for Dragon Island, it goes without saying that it's packed with people.

There are many people hiding in the Dragon Island area, and the crowds outside look like they are watching some important ceremony.

The sorcerer had excellent eyesight, and with the help of the specially made phonograph gifted by Anthony, Celia and Anko could see very clearly.

At this moment, they, along with Pamisa and Meow Girl, were in pairs, sitting in two-person flying vehicles, looking down from the same altitude.

Anko opened a hidden window, allowing them to talk and discuss with Pamisa and the others.

Seeing the huge crowds in Dragon Island City, especially around the Dragon Island volcano, with its fearless onlookers, Miao Lan exclaimed, "There are so many people! If a fight breaks out, won't they be in trouble? How scary!"

"Don't be afraid, Miaolan, I will protect you."

"Thank you, Meow White~"

The interaction between the two caught Celia's attention, and she wondered if she should sabotage their aircraft and make it crash and kill them.

Celia also shares Miaolan's worries.

She glanced furtively at Ross sitting beside her and wondered to herself, "Lord Ross, won't so many people die from the aftermath of the battle?"

Ross said calmly, "Definitely, at least half of the people here are dead."

“How much?!”

Celia's heart skipped a beat.

Ross said, "Don't panic, panicking won't help. The guardian of Dragon Island, Erina, is a seventh-level mage. He has become arrogant after a hundred years of advancement. This matter may be a good slap in the face for him."

"but……"

“Celia.” Ross interrupted Celia, speaking seriously, “Your mindset must match your strength. You can only save as many people as you have the strength to do. You can’t save people like this. The Dragon Island volcanic eruption gave them ample time to leave, but they chose to go against the current and watch up close, which means they have to bear the risks.”

"I'm not saying they brought it on themselves, I'm just saying that with your current strength, you can't save them. First, focus on protecting yourself before you think about protecting others."

Celia fell silent, her heart filled with unease.

Just then, something strange happened on Dragon Island.

Suddenly, fiery red lines appeared and spread from the summit to the foot of the volcano, which had been dormant, before quickly disappearing.

Then, a huge suction force was generated at the top of the volcano, and the mages around who had not reacted were immediately sucked in and screamed.

Only mages of the fourth rank or higher reacted in time and retreated, avoiding being sucked in.

The suction force draws in the volcanic ash from the sky and the lava fire from the volcano, forming two lines, one red and one gray.

From the side came Miao Bai's drooling voice: "So much lava fire! If we bring it all back, our tribe will definitely get a seat in the royal selection."

Miao Lan slapped him: "Don't think about such daydreams, your mind should only be on Miao Lan!"

"Miao Lan will definitely get a seat in the royal selection."

"Humph, I forgive you."

This time, not only Celia, but even Anko couldn't help but look over.

Volcanic ash and lava fire are poured into the suction center and condense there.

The surroundings gradually grew colder. All the spectators saw that a layer of frost slowly condensed on the bodies of the spellcasters who were closer to them.

They quickly retreated over a hundred meters, watching with astonishment and uncertainty.

This situation has sparked much discussion.

Anthony said, "I've studied their tragedy from a century ago, many details of which have been buried, but broadly speaking, the signs are the same as this one."

Pamisa gasped, "Is the tragedy of a hundred years ago about to repeat itself?"

"Probably."

Pamisa frowned: "Then why aren't the dragon riders making any moves?"
