Chapter 346 League Restart
The events of the past few days have touched the hearts of people throughout the Northern Union.

Or rather, the entire world's attention has been focused on the Northern League.

Who would have thought that so much would happen in just half a month in a warlock league?

One of the five great empires was completely outmaneuvered by heretics. While people lamented the deaths in Gerald City, they also mocked the Northern Alliance.

"It's unbelievable that a town of tens of thousands of people was only discovered an hour after losing contact."

"One hour was the discovery time, but the rescue took three hours."

"In three hours, everyone who wasn't dead before would be dead by now, right?"

"Although the death toll has not yet been released, it is certainly high."

"It is said that at least half of them died, and the rest are not much better off."

"How utterly shameful! They still have the nerve to hold a mage league?"

"Cults are terrifying."

"..."

Countless dissenting voices spread throughout the world through newspapers and the songs of bards.

At this time, the Northern League monarch gave a public speech about the tragedy that had occurred in Gerald City.

Besides reporting the losses in Gerald City, the speech declared that they would launch an operation to eradicate heresy, vowing to completely eliminate it from the borders of the Northern Alliance. This operation was named "Operation Pest Control".

He then mentioned some follow-up measures, including that the Mage League would continue and that the Northern League was willing to double its losses should such an incident occur again.

Following the monarch's speech, the Mage League Committee also issued a statement indicating that the league would not be canceled and would resume tomorrow.

That evening, Ashburn, led by Black, found Celia and conveyed the league committee's message to her.

"You mean, before the competition starts, you want me to check if there are any problems?"

Celia pointed to herself: "Are you sure, Your Majesty Ashborn?"

Ashburn nodded: "Although I don't really want to admit it, the Northern Alliance has a bunch of useless people, and the League Committee is even more full of useless people. They are all idiots who only want to get seniority and have no ability whatsoever. It's better to hope that the heretics will take pity on the Northern Alliance than to rely on them."

Celia: "..."

It seems the league committee is full of useless people, so useless that Ashburn simply gave up on using them.

"But I still have to compete."

"It won't affect anything. If your match is interrupted because of something you discover, we will arrange a rematch for you. If Celia discovers any clues that cause her to accidentally lose the match, we can also arrange a rematch for you."

This basically implies to Celia that she can replay the match indefinitely until she defeats her opponent.

However, Celia disdained using such methods.

If you lose, you lose. Can you win in a rematch?

"I'm just a lowly third-tier mage... Don't have too high expectations of me. I'll be satisfied as long as I can finish the league smoothly."

"It definitely will, as long as Miss Celia takes a look for us before the competition."

"Alright, then I'll take the liberty. Of course, I might just be saying it casually, whether you listen or not is up to you."

Ashburn said coldly, "Anyone who disobeys will never be able to obey again."

"..."

Thus, as the Northern Alliance, with the assistance of various forces, launched a massive "Pest Cleanup" operation, the Warlock League was restarted once again.

In the morning, Celia arrived at the arena early, glanced around briefly, told Ashburn that nothing had happened, and then went straight back to sleep... oh no, to meditate. "Our opponent is dead, so they advanced directly. Sigh, that's terrible."

The girl was quite disappointed that there was no competition.

"Lord Ross, do you think the Arctic Blood Alliance will still cause trouble at this time?"

"Schrödinger's interference."

"What do you mean?"

"It's somewhere between potentially causing trouble and not being able to cause trouble. Generally speaking, the Mage League is currently heavily guarded, and the guards are all people who actually do the work, not those committee members who are just loafing around. So the Arctic Blood Alliance won't come to cause trouble."

"However, the league's defenders might think that their defenses are tight enough that the Arctic Blood Alliance won't cause trouble, and they might start to relax. At that point, the Arctic Blood Alliance might continue to cause trouble."

Celia understood. "So you mean it's completely unpredictable before they actually come to cause trouble, right?"

"Yes, but today is the first day, and the league is very serious about defense. The other side can't possibly come at this time. After all, you led everyone to destroy so many strongholds, and you have basically completely cleared out the strongholds around Koster. Some of the other heretics who were lurking in the slums have also been found."

As he spoke, Ross suddenly remembered something and laughed, "And your simp classmate has also been rescued. After that heretic was discovered, he fled in a hurry and didn't have time to take your simp classmate with him. Now the sheriff of Koster is taking him to the hospital."

Celia: "..."

If Ross hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten about it.

Celia said, "How come this Arctic Blood Alliance is so powerful? They cause far more trouble than the Deep Sea Alliance."

Ross said, "Not bad. The Deep Sea Aid Society also summoned a white whale specifically for Shining City. Although they were interfered with by me and failed to summon a white whale of rank six or higher, only a rank five white whale appeared, which you then caught. But if they successfully summon a rank six white whale..."

A gigantic sixth-tier monster...

Celia felt a chill run down her spine just imagining it.

If this really happens, Radiant City will probably be destroyed.

I didn't really realize it at the time, but now that I think about it, the Deep Sea Assistance Society was also aiming to destroy someone else's capital.

However, after the failure of Operation White Whale, they disappeared without a trace and dared not cause trouble again.

The Arctic Blood Alliance had grand ambitions. After discovering that the Abyss Gate had been dealt with, they decisively froze a town with tens of thousands of people. It is unclear whether this was a mockery of the Northern Alliance or an attempt to "cut their losses."

"So all the preparations made by the Polar Blood Alliance were also for opening the Gate of the Abyss?"

"Opening the gate to the abyss is not the goal, but a condition for achieving the goal."

"So what is their purpose?"

"I don't know, maybe it's to summon their gods."

A grayish-black wisp slowly appeared in Ross's hand, which he then dispelled.

"what is this?"

"A vengeful spirit is something that only arises when many people die; it is a type of spirit that usually only exists in the underworld."

"Does this help in summoning gods?"

“Perhaps,” Ross shook his head. “Wraiths and faith are conflicting things. Generally speaking, no god would use this, unless…”

“Unless what?” Celia asked hastily.

Ross looked out the window.

"Unless, the gods are dead and want to be resurrected."
