Chapter 433 Strategy (Fifth update, please vote!)

Celia suspects that Melina may be possessed by Blake.

Why does she, like Blake, consider herself an expert in everything?

The girl couldn't help but glance at Ross in her mind and mutter to herself.

Could it be that they know of Lord Ross's existence, and while they seem to be talking to me, they are actually making a request to Lord Ross?

Ross sensed her thoughts and laughed, "They are sixth-tier mages, so perhaps they have some suspicions, but they can't know about my existence unless I want to."

Ethel hadn't even noticed him back then, let alone a sixth-tier mage who hadn't even broken through the limits of humanity.

Celia nodded to herself. Faced with Melina's hopes, she didn't dare to make any boasts. After thinking for a moment, she shook her head and said, "My current knowledge of magic arrays is not yet at the level to easily understand the magic arrays set up by the gods. I can try, but I can't guarantee that it will work."

Melina breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "It's okay, just give it a try, just take a look, it's fine if it doesn't work out."

Celia was just saying it casually and didn't intend to actually study it.

The magic circle in the Golden Apple Stone Forest is much larger than the magic circle in Leites City.

Even if she wanted to understand, the Mage's Hand couldn't fully control it.

Moreover, she felt that such a divinely set-up array could not be easily invaded like an ordinary array.

If you want change, there's only one possibility—

Rose makes the move.

Melina waved goodbye, saying, "Then I won't disturb Celia's view."

“Wait a moment, Bishop Melina.”

"what happened?"

“This was obtained by Duke Pharos from a deceased high-ranking heretic. He asked me to give it to you for research.” Celia took out the Source of Life.

Melina took it, examined it for a moment, and nodded. "Okay, I'll give it to them to study when I get back."

"Uh-huh."

"Is there anything else? If not, I won't bother you any longer."

"That's all, goodbye."

Celia waved and watched Melina leave.

Then, she looked back at the Golden Apple Stone Forest and complained, "Lord Ross, what are they thinking? Do they think I'm a god?"

Ross chuckled, "If I control you, wouldn't that make me a god?"

Celia pouted: "That's you, not me... Lord Ross, do you think the pollution situation in the Golden Apple Stone Forest can be resolved?"

"Whether it can be resolved depends on finding the source of the pollution, or rather, the core of the magic array. You can only find out by obtaining access to the magic array and reviewing its 'log files'."

Celia said, "Me... me infiltrating the Golden Apple Stone Forest's magic array? I can't do that, can I?"

Ross nodded: "Intrusion is impossible, you'll get lost in the magic circle. But if you gain access, you can read the traces of the magic circle."

The changes and operation of a magic array leave traces. Large magic arrays collect these traces, much like a computer's log file. With the right permissions, one can access these traces and understand the operation of the magic array.

"Gaining access requires hacking," Celia said, tapping her head.

Gaining access requires intrusion, and intrusion can lead to getting lost, while gaining access does not. But to gain access, you need to intrude...

Ross chuckled, "Who says you have to hack to get access? Did the heretics of the Deep Sea Aid Society also hack into the magic circle to get access?"

Celia: "...Does Lord Ross want me to infiltrate the deep-sea fortress and steal the key to the magic circle?"

Ross smiled and nodded: "I think it's a good idea."

Celia shook her head vigorously: "No, no, no, absolutely not! I'll die! Even with Lord Ross... I'll still die!"

The deep-sea fortress has sixth-tier mages.

The difference between the third and fourth tiers is already significant. Under a fourth-tier opponent, Celia is confident she can escape. As for the fifth tier... Ross should be able to handle it.

But sixth rank...

It's better to wash up and sleep.

To a sixth-tier being, a third-tier being is no different from an ant, not just in terms of strength, but also speed. No matter how fast an ant runs, can it ever be faster than a human?

Ross said, "If we don't infiltrate, there are two other ways to solve the problem with the magic circle."

"What method?" Celia asked hurriedly.

"The first method is to blitzkrieg the fortress, take down the fortress in the shortest time, find the access to the magic circle, and shut down the pollution dissipation. This method will cause some pollution to dissipate, but a small amount of dissipation will not have a big impact."

"This... seems like a possibility, but what if the Deepsea Alliance destroys the access before they die..."

“Then let’s go with the second option,” Ross said calmly. “Let the main force launch a feint attack, and send an elite squad or an experienced mage to infiltrate the fortress and find the location of the access key.”

"This seems like a good idea. I'll go back and talk to Bishop Melina about it."

Celia immediately returned to the camp and found Melina at the Knights of the Law camp, relaying Ross's plan to her.

“The Deep Sea Assistance Association definitely doesn’t have the ability to break the magic array. They must have obtained the key to control the magic array, which is why they can control it. As long as we steal their key, we can eliminate our worries.”

"That's what Celia said."

Melina pondered for a moment and decided that Celia's method was feasible.

She said, "I'll go find the team leaders and we'll have a meeting tomorrow morning. Oh, and you should come too."

Celia waved her hand: "No need, I'm just making a suggestion. How to do it specifically is up to the big shots. I'm not qualified for this kind of meeting."

Meetings are so boring, I don't want to go to meetings.

Melina said, "The scroll you made helped us a lot, how could you not be qualified? In this battle, you are the most qualified one. If you hadn't come, we wouldn't have dared to sit down."

“…” Celia looked at Melina silently.

She wanted to tell Melina to go see the priest.

"It's a pity Phil isn't here."

Celia sighed and slowly walked away.

Melina, confused, called out as Celia left, "By the way, Celia, I'll need you to continue drawing the scrolls. The sorcerers you requested have arrived and they'll be on duty starting tomorrow."

Celia switched from walking to running, escaping at the speed of light.

……

the next morning.

Celia still came.

He sat quietly at the end of the table, listening to the intense tactical discussions among the many fourth, fifth, and sixth-level big shots.

While saying he was listening, he was actually meditating quietly.

You can meditate with your eyes open, but it's not as efficient as meditating with your eyes closed.

The discussion lasted for about two hours, and a plan seemed to be agreed upon.

After listening to Melina's conclusion, Celia found that apart from the tactical deployment, the strategy was no different from what Ross had said.

So what exactly was discussed during those two hours?
The girl thought to herself.

After giving the tactical instructions, Melina looked at Celia.

“Celia, we’ve decided to take action in two weeks. In the meantime, let’s clean up all the outposts on the perimeter. We’ll also need your help with drawing up the domain scrolls with the sorcerers.”

Celia readily agreed, "Okay, okay."

With help, she could easily turn it into an 'assembly line,' with her in charge of the final, crucial part.

The success rate will drop significantly, but efficiency and quantity will increase.

Celia stood up, ready to leave, but Melina said, "After discussing it, we think it's most suitable for you to do this kind of infiltration."

A question mark slowly appeared above Celia's head.

"?"

If you want me dead, just say so. No need to beat around the bush, thank you.
