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

Chapter 256 Let's convert all the gold coins into combat power!
Celia has returned to Southern City and is resting there.

After dividing the money, Elena said goodbye to her and left alone, returning to the Elf Forest.

With Pascal's gold coins arriving in her account, combined with what she had left over, her savings had reached eight hundred gold coins!

All eight hundred gold coins were placed in a coin storage box and then in a specially made small coin bag.

This box has two layers, each with ten slots. Each slot can hold 50 coins, regardless of whether they are gold, silver, or bronze.

Of course, most people buy them to store copper coins; storing silver coins would be a huge expense, and storing gold coins...

Celia believed she would be the first among the commoners!
Hmm... Am I still considered an ordinary citizen now?
"This is the first time I've ever seen so many gold coins, hehehe..."

After carefully storing the gold coins, Celia would occasionally open the box to take a look. Seeing the glittering gold inside made her feel better.

"Once school starts, with the bonuses from the school, the Holy Court, and the royal ruins, I might get around 1,500 gold coins?"

Nothing brings more happiness than this golden expanse.

Just as Celia was considering where to hide the gold coins, or whether to deposit them in the merchant guild's bank.

But just then, Ross's voice came through.

"What should you save money for in the early stages? What's the use of saving money? Can it improve your strength? What you need to do now is to convert all these gold coins into your combat power, or make them generate more money."

"Money making money?"

"Investing in business or starting a business... that might be a bit difficult for you. You should sell your technology instead. Selling technology doesn't require much capital, just 800 gold coins. Keep 200 gold coins and use the rest to buy items that can improve your strength."

Celia thought for a moment, "Should we buy items to aid meditation or enhance magic power?"

Ross shook his head: "No, you don't need potions to increase your magic power. Regular magic power-enhancing potions and materials have very little effect on your current level of magic power. Moreover, the magic power that is enhanced is of relatively poor quality and needs to be repeatedly refined. It's not as fast as meditating on your own."

Ross's phantom appeared beside Celia and said, "Summon the puppet."

"Ok."

Celia summoned the puppet, and Ross took control of it, picking up a pen and writing on a piece of paper.

A moment later, Ross finished writing and handed it to Celia.

Celia took it and examined it carefully.

"Regarding the comprehensive preparation plan for ascending to the next level... there are four areas for improvement: spell proficiency, mana refinement, mana concentration, and learning new spells and passive spells..."

Celia first looked at the plan for spell proficiency.

This is done in conjunction with the new spell.

"Do you want me to learn the Forest Silk?"

Celia had actually been planning to learn the Forest Silk for a long time.

This spell is only a first-tier spell, and it is not something that only elves can learn.

However, she wasn't a nature-based mage and hadn't specifically looked into it, so she didn't know if the school had the spell Forest Silk.

Ross said, "After you advance to the third tier, the Forest Silk will be much less effective for you. What you need to learn now is the second-tier earth spell, Mystic Net."

"The Secret Gold Web?"

Celia had never heard of this spell.

Ross said, "I don't know if you still have this spell. It's a relatively strong control spell among earth magic. The spell's effect is to draw free metal elements from the earth and form a metal network around the target, trapping them." Celia asked curiously, "What kind of effect does it have?"

Ross didn't answer, but instead sent a picture to Celia.

In the scene, the earth shakes violently, and a huge metal net rises from beneath the ground, trapping a giant humanoid monster.

The humanoid monster struggled incessantly, but could not break free.

Celia perked up: "This spell doesn't look like it's second-tier?"

"This is the second-tier spell, the Mystic Net. However, it was only possible to trap a powerful Titan beast by using a seventh-tier legendary sorcerer."

"Titan?"

After a moment of thought, Celia said, "I've seen this species in the ancient monster encyclopedia. It says they can lift mountains with their bare hands and are very powerful, but like dragons, they disappeared after the Age of Calamity and may have gone extinct."

Ross nodded: "It's normal for large races like this to be unable to withstand a large influx of abyssal demonic energy. The larger they are, the less they can withstand it. It's the God King's fault."

Celia: "..."

"What I showed you was the most brilliant moment of the Mithril Web. Although I also wanted to show you the effects of the low-level Mithril Web, I hadn't learned it at that time. Before the sixth level, my improvement was quite fast, and I didn't have a direct impression of many spells."

Celia asked curiously, "Then why does Lord Ross seem to know all kinds of magic?"

"That was when I was at the Saint rank. In order to unlock all the passive spells, I specifically learned every spell that was available at the time."

He learned every spell he could...?

Just imagining that simple sentence terrified Celia.

Not to mention the vast number of lost spells, the spells that remain now, and those that have been innovated, could fill a small library.

Celia definitely won't be able to learn it.

Ross chuckled: "You don't need to think so much. Actually, many spells have no effect on the passive spells. I just clicked it casually at the time."

It was indeed a casual click. After reaching the ninth-tier Saint rank, the requirements for becoming a god are very high. One of them is the passive ability to learn many different factions of spells. When Ross saw this, he simply spent money to empty the spell library, set up an auto-clicker, and used the auto-clicker to learn spells every day before logging off, until the morning.

Even so, it took many late nights of study to finally learn all the spells.

After that, I spent several more days and nights using items to grind my proficiency in these spells to mastery.

The game's spell proficiency has a tangible numerical value and name, divided into beginner, proficient, master, and subtle. There is no data panel; to know the level of proficiency, you can only judge it by visual inspection and mental perception.

However, with the advanced technology of magic puppets nowadays, a magic puppet only needs to spend a few minutes reading and downloading the memory crystal of a spell to skip the beginner level and go directly to proficiency or even mastery.

Of course, at most one can only reach the level of proficiency.

Proficiency is linked to the performance of the Puppet Heart; a natural Puppet Heart, once downloaded with a spell, will definitely be mastered.

The success of creating an artificial puppet heart depends on its magical compatibility.

However, the puppet cannot be leveled up; it will remain at the mastery level until it dies.

For most people, spell proficiency is not easy to increase.

If you lack talent, it may take a month or even several months to get started. Although you can become proficient quickly after getting started, it is not something that ordinary people can do to go from proficient to master.
