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

Chapter 186 Celia: It was purely an accident!

Celia stared in disbelief at Vanessa in the sky.

Vanessa is usually a truly gentle and refined person. Whether she is facing Celia, the deacon, believers, or people seeking medical help, she always greets them with a smile.

Even when encountering rude people, they will first try to persuade them, and if persuasion fails, they will use force to subdue them, but they are very gentle.

But now, the rage on her face and the rising divine light were more frenzied than a berserker's.

It was as if she wasn't a high priest or a priestess, but a warlike law-abiding knight, the kind of law-abiding knight who was constantly being reprimanded.

However, Celia could understand. After all, if she wasn't angry about the destruction of the temple, when would she be?

After pausing briefly in the air, Vanessa rushed toward the shark and reached out to grab it.

Being of the same rank four, the shark naturally wouldn't let her catch it easily and immediately used magic to deal with it.

However, Vanessa's large, divinely radiant hand, like the most solid object in the world, remained unshaken no matter how he attacked.

She grabbed the shark and snorted coldly.

"If you want war, then so be it!"

After saying that, Vanessa threw the shark out of town. The shark was thrown out like a shooting star, and Vanessa followed closely behind, rushing out of town as well.

The commotion quickly alerted the Star Ash Town security team, and the town's lord swiftly led his men over.

Meanwhile, Celia was comforting the two deacons, asking them to help her dig out the buried heretics.

They were lucky; they weren't inside the temple when it was destroyed, which was the time they went out to buy supplies.

They returned just as the temple was destroyed, and were stunned to see the perfectly good temple being destroyed before their eyes.

After briefly explaining the situation to them, Celia asked them to help her dig out the people and also found ropes to tie them all up.

When the Lord of Starash Town arrived in a hurry, they had already dug out the last heretic and lined them up.

The lord was stunned when he saw the ruins of the temple.

Upon seeing Celia, he approached her. "You are... Miss Celia?"

Celia looked up and said politely, "Hello, Lord Walter."

The two deacons also bowed to Walter.

"What happened?" Walter looked at the ruins of the temple and the six people lying on the ground, somewhat bewildered.

Celia said, "These are heretics from the Deep Sea Aid Society. They broke into the Star Ash Temple under the guise of healing, intending to ambush me and Vanessa's mother, but Vanessa's mother stopped them."

She looked at the people on the ground and said, "I've taken care of all of them. Mother Vanessa was fighting a fourth-tier heretic. That despicable heretic demolished the temple."

"pagan……"

Walter sensed the ranks of the heretics on the ground and vaguely felt that their ranks were the same as his own, which gave him a huge headache.

How could so many powerful heretics suddenly appear?
Celia said, "These heretics are very likely lurking in the Protoss Forbidden Lands, using the Protoss Tree as their base. That's why there are so many high-ranking mages here. They've set their sights on the temple; it's simply outrageous!"

Walter felt a bit overwhelmed. These heretics were of a very high rank. He might be able to control one of them, but he couldn't control so many of them.

After much deliberation, he said, "Miss Celia, these people are too dangerous. The prison in Star Ash Town can't hold them. Why don't you report this to Southern Border City and have the temple there take them for trial?"

"I don't have the Southern City Temple's contact information."

"I have……"

"Can I contact the Holy Court headquarters in Shining City to arrest him?" Walter was about to say he could, but upon hearing Celia's words, he stopped himself and nodded: "It would be even better if you could contact the headquarters!"

"Thank you."

Celia quickly contacted Vasily.

Vasily listened to her brief description of what had happened and was filled with questions.

Upon hearing that the temple had been destroyed, he was both amused and exasperated: "This time you didn't manage to get the high priest in, but you managed to get the temple in instead?"

“It was a complete accident!” Celia emphasized. “I don’t know why these heretics came to the temple seeking treatment and then started fighting in the temple.”

“I have already learned what happened. Considering that this is not a matter concerning clergy, the Order of Discipline is not in charge of this matter and should take over by the Order of the Law Enforcement. I will inform Archbishop Melina, a fourth-order heretic, later and ask her to go there in person. However, she is not available now and is expected to be able to go tomorrow.”

"Regarding the reconstruction of the destroyed temple, the local high priest needs to report it to the congregation, and then the cardinals need to sign it off before funds can be allocated for the reconstruction. Go and talk to the local high priest and ask her to report the damage to the congregation."

"Ok."

After cutting off contact, Celia said to Walter, "I have notified the Holy See headquarters, and they said that someone will come tomorrow to take these heretics away."

Walter immediately said, "That would be great. Why don't I guard these heretics?"

Celia had some doubts about Walter's ability to guard these fellow heretics, and after much consideration, she chose to ask Ross for help:
"Lord Ross, should I hand these people over to the lord for safekeeping?"

Ross chuckled, “This lord just wants to claim some credit. Let him have it; it’s better for Vanessa too. However, this small place probably can’t keep an eye on these third-tier heretics. You’d better leave your marks on them to prevent them from running away and becoming unreachable.”

"Leave a mark?"

Celia asked in confusion, "How can I leave a mark?"

"This is a bit advanced for you, it belongs to the realm of those above the seventh rank. Let me handle it."

Ross's phantom appeared beside Celia. He pointed, and Celia saw six orbs that seemed to be spiritual energy enter the minds of all the heretics. There seemed to be a faint connection between them and Ross.

"All right."

"Thank you, God!"

Celia smiled, pretending to finish her thought, and said to Walter, "Alright, Lord Walter, they're causing trouble in your territory, so it's only right that you keep an eye on them and interrogate them. But be careful not to let them escape!"

Walter patted his chest: "Don't worry, if we're just keeping an eye on them for a day, there's absolutely no way they'll escape!"

Celia looked at the commotion coming from afar and asked, "After Vanessa captures that fourth-tier heretic, will Walter also be tasked with keeping an eye on him?"

Walter immediately shook his head, "No, no, let High Priestess Vanessa keep an eye on that heretic."

He wanted to share in the credit, but he was also aware of his own limitations.

That fourth-tier mage, how could a third-tier lord like him possibly keep an eye on him?
Walter immediately ordered his men to re-tie the heretics, and said to Celia, "Miss Celia, please treat them a little so they don't die in their cells."

“Okay.” Celia nodded.

As the infidels were being treated, the commotion outside the town gradually subsided and eventually disappeared.

Vanessa carried the shark back to the temple by the scruff of its neck, like carrying a dog.

Oh, temple ruins.

　Last night, a friend dragged me out for drinks, which made me out of sorts and write very slowly, but I'm sure I'll finish it, don't worry!
