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

Chapter 519 Is this the end?
During this period, nothing has attracted more attention than the Holy Court's army of the Knights of Law pressing in, poised to attack the Blue Dragon Empire.

In recent years, thanks to the technology unearthed from the Sorcerer League and ancient ruins, coupled with the rapid advancements in puppet technology, the world has entered a period of rapid development, and large-scale wars are now a thing of the past.

Today, the Holy Court's actions have awakened the memories of the older generation and instilled fear in the younger generation.

No one likes war except for those who benefit from it.

Celia kept a close eye on the situation, and basically tried to find out what was happening on the front lines every day.

In addition, she contacted Anke to inquire about her situation.

Anke is alright; she's currently in the southern part of the Blue Dragon Empire and is very safe.

In addition, Celia also contacted the two catgirls she had met in the Blue Dragon Empire, and breathed a sigh of relief after learning that they had successfully left the border of the Blue Dragon Empire.

While keeping a close eye on the situation, Celia, under Ross's guidance, was also methodically carrying out material preparation and training.

A week after the situation escalated, her magic refinement reached 110%, and the power and efficiency of her spells were also improved.

Most importantly, she sensed a vague external magic.

Although it will still be quite a distance before it can be called upon, it is a good start.

That day, during her rest, she continued to monitor the situation and discovered that the magic array on Dragon Island had malfunctioned once again, and more cracks had appeared in Erina's glacier.

On the border, the Blue Dragon Empire dispatched several sixth-tier mages to lead dragon rider legions to replace the border patrols and resist pressure from the Holy Court.

But all these messages were blown away by one particular piece of news—

The Holy Court's most powerful sorcerer, rumored to have advanced to the Holy Lord level, appeared on the border, seemingly conducting pre-battle training for the Knights of the Law.

The appearance of the Holy Lord, even without official recognition, has caused concern among countless individuals and organizations.

The newspapers that Celia bought contained many bards and high-ranking sorcerers' assessments of the Holy Lord's appearance.

"The appearance of the Holy Lord indicates that the Holy Court's actions this time are not just about exerting pressure. If we exclude their long-standing desire to annex the Blue Dragon Empire, we believe that the Blue Dragon Empire may actually have captured the Holy Court's future Holy Maiden."

"Some people may ask, there are five candidates for Holy Maiden each year, why go to such lengths to catch only one or two, even involving the Holy Lord?"

"That's because, of course, the Blue Dragon Empire's public records show that the saintess they 'greeted' was Miss Celia, who was being groomed by the Holy Court."

"Perhaps everyone is unfamiliar with the name [Celia], but what if I told you that last July, the Northern Alliance almost ruined the Mage League, and it was thanks to Celia who turned the tide and successfully resolved the Abyss Gate? Moreover, she was the Mage League champion and played an important role in the battle. Of course, before winning the championship, she once used a spell to severely injure a fourth-tier referee."

"In addition, the deep-sea siege that everyone is familiar with also relied heavily on the scrolls and purification spells provided by Celia, which laid the foundation for victory. It not only reduced the Holy Court's losses and greatly shortened the siege time, but also completed the siege. Even the most secret stronghold was discovered by her."

"The above information comes from sources and conflicts with the Holy Court's records. Take my information as the definitive source; believe it or not. However, considering this action and conflict that even alarmed the Holy Lord, you have no choice but to believe it..."

Celia looked at the article, which seemed to be written by a famous bard, and fell silent.

"What does this have to do with me?"

Celia suspected that this bard didn't have the feel of a bard at all, and... he was probably just a fanatic of hers, using the commentary on the situation to lavish praise on her.

A quick glance at the IP address reveals it's from the Northern League. That's fine then.

It was just an article, nothing special, but when Celia entered the Protoss network, she found that the chat platforms were all discussing her because she was the pretext for the invasion. So everyone dug up her deeds, making it seem as if the Holy Court really mobilized a large army for her sake.

Celia was speechless at this.

“Bishop Melina only used the title at the beginning, and she only referred to her as a ‘saintess’ without mentioning my name. The Blue Dragon Empire’s public records show that I and Anke are both listed, so why is no one discussing Anke?”

Celia crumpled the newspaper into a ball, and a flame burned it all away.

"(╬◣д◢) I'm so angry!"

Ross chuckled and said, "Alright, don't be angry. Here, this is the tonic I'm giving you for this stage. Take it."

He took out a bottle of white medicine, which looked like a clump of ice floating inside.

Celia took it and immediately felt the intense chill emanating from it.

"Using the Frost Star as the core material, and refining the other auxiliary materials, this potion's purpose is to enhance your control over ice spells. Only when you have mastered all your ice spells can you proceed to the next step."

“Okay.” Celia nodded.

Spell proficiency is categorized into beginner, proficient, master, control, and subtlety. The strength of a magic puppet is fixed at the mastery level, and with the amplification from the Magic Puppet Heart, magic puppets have become prevalent.

The puppet cannot increase spell proficiency, and after changing the puppet's puppet heart, Celia has deleted all the spells the puppet previously knew, leaving only a few water spells and life spells.

She had to learn all those ice spells from scratch.

Fortunately, she has a high talent for ice magic, and her magic refinement level has exceeded 100%. Her proficiency in spells is steadily increasing, and she has already mastered many of them.

The most frequently used spells, Ice Rain and Ice Blast, have even reached the level of subtlety.

Celia drank the potion and felt its power erupt within her body. She then condensed a layer of ice cloud in her hand.

The girl carefully assessed the situation, comparing it to when she had the Water Puppet Heart, and couldn't help but mutter, "It feels like even a Control-level spell can't compare to a Master-level spell amplified by the Puppet Heart..."

Ross nodded: "The lower the rank, the lower the bonus. Only as your strength increases will the spell bonus from the puppet gradually become lower than the bonus from your own proficiency. Also, puppets of different elements can also receive bonuses... However, directly using the bonus from the Puppet Heart is too early for you. Don't think about it too much."

"Ok."

Celia didn't think much of it.

Right now, all of her time is consumed by improving her proficiency and using external magic.

Just as Celia was diligently practicing her magic and rapidly improving her skills with the help of potions, a major change occurred in the situation between the Holy Court and the Blue Dragons, which was being watched closely by the entire world—

The Holy Court... has withdrawn its troops.
