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

Chapter 67 Gods? Heh (Seeking first subscription!)

"So... Lord Ross, why did we come to Crimson Town first?"

After bringing Benovia to Marina, Celia parted ways with her and, at Ross's request, went to Crimson Town.

The girl didn't know why she had to come here, but since Ross had suggested it, she decided to come.

"I'm here to curry favor with your school principal," Ross said.

"?"

"The Crimson Spring is the core of the summoning circle. Regular suppression runes won't work here; special suppression runes are needed."

"Oh fine."

Celia arrived outside the temple in Crimson Town and explained her purpose to the guards.

After displaying the saint's emblem, the guard quickly ran to report to Blake and the others.

Meanwhile, Blake and the bishops of the Holy See were discussing the pollution shockwaves that had appeared at the Crimson Spring and other nodes.

"That's strange, Bishop Alvis. Didn't you say you could stop the summoning? Why didn't you stop it? Instead, you're making the white whale almost come out."

Alvis blushed: "How was I supposed to know? The summoning was supposed to be cut off, but the magic circle suddenly changed, rendering my previous attempts to stop it useless."

"Can we still stop it now?"

"If you can't stop it, you're doomed!"

"What do you mean?"

"You're a brute, a fool!"

"you……"

A heated argument broke out inside the hall, and a knight who entered loudly announced Celia's arrival.

“Archbishop Black, Saintess Celia wishes to see you; she is outside.”

Blake's eyes lit up. "Quickly, invite her in!"

Not long after, the knight led Celia into the meeting room.

The girl paused when she saw more than a dozen pairs of eyes staring at her in the hall, and wanted to escape.

Why are there so many people? They all seem to be well-known bishops and priests from within the Holy See...

But escaping was useless at this point, so Celia had no choice but to bite the bullet and go inside. She looked at Blake and said, "Um, Principal Blake, I'm here to deliver the Contamination Suppression Rune."

"Pollution suppression... runes?"

The others exchanged bewildered glances, but Blake's eyes lit up. "Bring it up quickly so I can see!"

Celia took out a piece of paper on which complex rune patterns were drawn with an ordinary pen.

Just as he was about to give it to Blake, someone suddenly reached out and snatched it away.

“What does Blake know about runes? Let me take a look first.”

Celia looked at the other person, who was Bishop Alvis of the Holy Court.

The other party seems to be a puppeteer who also serves as a formation master, holding a position of great importance.

His eyes slowly lit up as he looked at the runes and annotations on the diagram.

"This rune, good, very good. It can actually draw upon the energy of a summoning circle to suppress the spread of pollution. Interesting, I have some ideas... Who drew this?"

After muttering to himself for a while, Alvis looked up at Celia and said, "This is definitely the work of a legendary array master. Please tell me who he is?"

"Uh……"

Celia opened her mouth, unsure of what to say.

Could it be that it came from the hand of an evil god?

“Miss Celia, his name is very important to us. Please be sure to say it. Don’t worry, we won’t bother him.”

Before Celia could speak, Blake suddenly burst into laughter, "Alvis, I think this rune must be Celia's work."

"Don't say anything," Alvis said, taking it as Blake teasing him.

As high-ranking members, they all knew Celia, the prospective saintess, since they were ultimately in charge of the assessment.

When screening candidates, they conducted in-depth investigations into each one, so they naturally knew about Celia's situation.

There are instances where one might misjudge, but the probability is very low.

"Speak, don't be afraid. If you can help the Holy Court, that will be the best test result."

After a long silence, Celia said, "I received it through prayer to the gods."

Alvis's smile froze. He snorted, said nothing more, and went to study the runes.

Seeing this, Celia immediately said, "Then I won't bother you any longer."

After saying that, he quickly left the conference room as if he were fleeing.

Blake stroked his beard, smiling without saying a word.

The others remained silent, all watching Ilvis.

More troublesome than the arrival of the white whale is the pollution pulses released by the magic array nodes. Each wave is stronger than the last, and who knows what will happen to this pollution before the white whale arrives.

Beluga whales are like nuclear bombs, while pollution is like dirty bombs. Nuclear bombs are terrifying, and dirty bombs are disgusting.

After a long while, Blake asked slowly, "So, you don't understand it, do you?"

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up. If I can't understand the Holy Court, then no one else can."

"Can it be solved?"

“Yes, although we don’t know who gave it to Celia, this rune can indeed solve our immediate problem and give us more resources to deal with the White Whale of the Sea.”

“That’s good. Maybe what Celia said is true. Maybe the gods answered her prayers and gave her this rune blueprint?” Blake smiled.

"Don't say such silly things, or you'll be laughed at."

Gods? Ha!

Alvis scoffed inwardly.

……

"Twilight Town is quite far from here. We have to take a border patrol vehicle to get there. Fortunately, there is a border patrol point in Crimson Town, so we can take it to Dawn City near Twilight Town."

After leaving the temple, Celia finally relaxed and began to figure out how to get to Twilight Town.

"You just ran off like that, aren't you afraid of leaving a bad impression on the bishop?" Ross said with amusement.

"There were too many people, I was nervous, I didn't have time to think about anything else, I just wanted to run away..."

Once she calmed down, Celia realized she shouldn't have run away after saying just one word, but at the time she really wasn't thinking about anything, she just wanted to get away.

With so many eyes fixed on him, especially high-ranking members of the Holy Court from the Temple of Ember, he dared not linger.

“There are 15 days until the white whale arrives. We’ll give you a week, so you only have eight days to gather the materials,” Ross said.

"We'll definitely collect them all."

Celia responded, while also encouraging herself.

……

At night, Celia emerged from the border patrol point and looked at the city, which was half the size of Shining City.

"Stay here for one night, and we'll set off tomorrow."

Celia found the Mercenary Guild and planned to stay there for the night, while also checking if there were any quests related to Twilight Town.

"Since we're already here, we might as well see if there's anything we can do on the side."

Looking at the list of requests in front of her, the girl filtered out Twilight Town and only three requests remained.

"Grandma Susan's dog has gone missing in Twilight Town. She hopes adventurers can help find it. The reward is 1 silver coin."

exclude.

"Assist the Holy Knights in eradicating the Twilight Cult stronghold entrenched in Twilight Town. Reward: 10 gold coins. Requirement: Second-tier mage..."

The Holy Court? Ruled out.

"The Twilight Town Investigation Team is recruiting investigators to investigate the anomalies at the Twilight Cemetery. 100 gold coins will be awarded for each sample brought back from the Twilight Cemetery..."

"Huh? Such a high reward, but look at the danger level... Level 1, such a low danger level, and the reward is so high? You must be kidding me."

Just as Celia was about to cross out the request, she heard Ross say, "It's good to lie. Take this request."

Celia asked in confusion, "Why? These kinds of quests will definitely start by saying after you set off that you need to buy their stuff with a certain amount of gold coins, otherwise you can't get into that Twilight Cemetery."

"That's even better. Besides rare materials, many basic materials require money to purchase. Do you have enough gold coins?"

"not enough……"

"Go ahead and accept this commission. If the commission is settled normally, that's best. If it's a scam or some kind of criminal gang, just confiscate their gold coins."

"That's...ok."

Celia didn't want to do it at first, but then she realized she really didn't have any money left...

Combating crime is everyone's responsibility!
