Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint.

Chapter 53 Don’t set flags randomly
Ethel, one of the twelve Olympian gods, is the god of the sea and holds power over it.

If he hadn't traveled through time, he would have been the first of the twelve Olympian gods to be defeated by Ross.

The reason is simple: the Sea God is a support character; his combat power is weak, but his support abilities are strong. If he is not killed first, there will be endless trouble later.

"Did you create this Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association, or did you specifically come here to absorb faith?"

Ross fell into deep thought.

If it's the former, then that's interesting.

After all, the Holy Court is an organization established by the gods after they have combined all the faiths. They no longer worship a single god. As one of the twelve main gods, the Sea God can certainly absorb some of the faiths.

But instead of the pure faith of the Holy Court, he came to absorb the faith power that was tainted by the abyss.

I have no idea what this guy is thinking.

"Forget it, we don't have any leads right now, let's leave."

Ross wasn't in a hurry.

Knowing that the Sea God is within the Deep Sea Aid Society, the next step is to gradually dismantle this sect to find out his whereabouts.

This is the core area of ​​the magic array supporting the cave, and naturally there is a secret passage to leave.

Ross meandered through the narrow, secret passage for a long time before finally emerging from an inconspicuous ravine.

There were no signs of human activity nearby, and the heretic who destroyed the stronghold could no longer be found.

Ross carefully sensed Celia's location; she was quite far from the puppet, and the connection between the puppet and her was somewhat faint.

Fortunately, after leaving the cave, the puppet was able to connect to the Protoss network.

After Ross set the puppet's instructions to go to Crimson Town, he let it go on its own, leaving only a trace of his mental energy as a precaution against unforeseen circumstances.

He himself had instantly returned to Celia's mind.

Then he understood why the connection was weak.

"Why are you still in the cave?" Ross asked in surprise.

Celia blushed slightly: "Mentor Elena said we could get out, but she got lost and led us around in circles until most of the caves collapsed, and we were trapped here."

Ross scanned everyone's expressions and noticed that they were all looking at Elena.

Elena looked like she wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say.

A moment later, a Holy Knight stepped forward and said helplessly, "Although there was a slight accident, don't worry, the Archbishop is on his way. Let's wait for him to rescue us."

Elena suddenly raised her head and said in a pleading tone, "Gentlemen, when the principal arrives, please don't say that I led you astray. Just say we didn't have time to get out, okay?"

Everyone looked at her, but no one said anything.

Elena gritted her teeth and said, "How about this, after we get out, I'll give each of you a magic scroll for [Hymn: Baptism]."

Everyone immediately beamed with joy.

"Look at what you're saying, Elena. This accident was caused by us not knowing the way."

"Yes, it's all my fault for not paying attention to the magic array in the cave."

“That’s right, that’s right, Elena was completely innocent.”

"..."

Celia raised her hand: "Teacher Elena, do I have one too?"

Elena's face hardened, but she couldn't hold back any longer and said helplessly, "Fine, you have it too, but [Hymn: Baptism] is a fourth-tier spell, you probably can't use it."

Someone nearby laughed and said, "Haha, Elena, you're wrong. You probably don't know what the magic in that hall was just now. It was very likely the fourth-order spell Meteor Shower."

“Yes, I checked the magical fluctuations just now and I can tell. However, considering that Miss Saintess is only at the first level, this magic must be a scroll. She not only used it, but also managed to save herself from harm.”

Celia asked, puzzled, "Does a magic scroll have conditions for use? Can't you just tear it open and use it?"

"Of course not. Didn't your scroll class instructor teach you that after a scroll is used, it draws on the surrounding magic to release spells? When using scrolls of more than two ranks, the mage cannot resist the drawing on magic and will be drained of their magic."

“When the magic is drained, the scroll will become indiscriminate, and will most likely target the user first, so you can’t use a fourth-tier scroll… wait, did you just use a fourth-tier scroll?” “I knew it would draw magic from the surrounding area, but I really didn’t know that I couldn’t use scrolls of more than two tiers.” Celia lowered her head slightly, embarrassed. “I did use a fourth-tier scroll just now, which I got from the high priest who was being judged.”

"Really?" Elena exclaimed in surprise. "Then...you're so weak, is it because the scroll drained your magic?"

"Ah... um." Celia nodded vaguely.

It's not fair to say she was lying, since activating the scroll did indeed use up the last bit of magic.

Upon hearing her answer, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, shocked that Celia could remain unharmed after casting a spell, even after her magic had been drained.

"how did you do it?"

"I simply put ten layers of ice walls around myself before using the scroll," Celia said honestly.

Elena seemed lost in thought.

When Celia saw her, she seemed to have thought of something, and her face was full of excitement.

She patted Celia's shoulder hard. "This method might work. I'll try it later. You also have [Hymn: Baptism]."

"Thank you, Instructor Elena. But what are the effects of the hymn baptism?"

It wasn't time for her to learn fourth-tier spells yet, and Celia didn't know what the purpose of these many different kinds of magic was.

"The Holy Hymn Baptism has two effects. The positive effect is to heal the wounds of everyone within a very large area and dispel negative mental effects; when used on enemies, it can cleanse their sins, make them repent to the gods, and make them lose their will to fight."

Elena knew that Celia could skillfully use fourth-tier spell scrolls, but she still gave her a final reminder: "Using Hymn Baptism before reaching the third tier will prevent you from selecting the effects, resulting in random effects after use. This might cause you to heal an enemy's injuries instead of controlling them."

"There's such a thing?" Celia exclaimed in shock.

Elena nodded: "So don't use it unless absolutely necessary, lest you end up confessing to the gods before you even get the other side to repent when you're fighting the heretics."

"Yes! I won't use it casually."

Regardless of whether you use it or not, it's still a scroll of a fourth-tier spell. What if it comes in handy someday?

"Lord Ross, are you able to control the scroll's effects?"

“I never use anything based on probability, I won’t.” Ross shook his head.

He's not unlucky; he simply hates gambling.

As a hardcore farming player, instead of gambling on probability, it's better to spend a few years developing your resources to achieve numerical superiority.

Early battles are exhausting; it's better to cultivate the land slowly.

"Your archbishop principal has arrived."

As soon as she finished speaking, Celia felt the entire cave shake violently.

Many people's faces changed.

"Oh no, this place is going to collapse!"

"Damn infidels, they found our location."

"Be prepared and protect yourselves when the collapse occurs. The heretics will definitely come to investigate, and then we'll deliver a fatal blow!"

Celia looked at the busy crowd and opened her mouth to convey Ross's words, but seeing that everyone was quite busy, she hesitated.

Forget it, let's wait until they're done with their work.

After all, this cave is really going to collapse.

"Was this done by the headmaster or by the heretics?" Celia couldn't help but ask Ross.

"It's your principal. He can't find you, so he's planning to tear the whole mountain apart. Of course, before he can tear it apart, you'll be buried underground."

"what?"

The girl was dumbfounded.

Dear Principal, are you going to save us or bury us on the spot?
