Chapter 552 The Flawed Heart of the Puppet

Originally, Celia wanted to gain the blacksmith's favor by completing the quest, and then take the opportunity to ask him if he knew anything about the god that everyone in Twilight Town spontaneously worshipped.

It seems unlikely that we'll get any answers from them now.

"Forget it, it's too late now. Let's hurry back to Dawn City to sleep for the night and deal with the rest tomorrow."

Dusk Town is not far from Dawn City. After wandering around Dusk Town for a while and finding nothing unusual, Celia had no choice but to board her flying broom and fly towards Dawn City.

Not long after, Celia settled down in Dawn City, checked into an inn, and took out the most valuable of her spoils: the Heart of the Death-attribute Puppet.

This puppet heart is entirely black, even darker and deeper than dark-themed or shadow-themed puppet hearts.

Holding it in her hand, Celia felt as if her soul was being sucked in. Ross's phantom appeared from the side, shaking his head and saying, "Fortunately, the performance of this Puppet Heart isn't high, otherwise your observation would have already resulted in your soul being sucked away."

Celia was startled and quickly shifted her attention away from the Heart of the Death Puppet.

So that feeling of having your soul absorbed wasn't a lie; it really could happen.

so far so good.

The girl patted her chest, feeling extremely relieved.

But she quickly reacted.

If this Puppet Heart truly possessed the ability to absorb souls, Lord Ross would have warned him long ago.

So Rose was actually playing a trick on himself...

After figuring out what had happened, Celia secretly glared at Ross, then pretended that she hadn't done anything and watched Ross curiously as he studied the Puppet Heart.

Ross picked up the pitch-black puppet heart, which floated and spun in his palm.

Celia watched curiously, waiting for a long time, but seeing that Ross didn't make any move, she couldn't help but ask, "Lord Ross, what exactly is the use of this super rare Puppet Heart?"

Ross smiled slightly: "This Puppet Heart is an incomplete version and cannot be used for the time being. It is a rare dual-attribute Puppet Heart, but the other attribute has been cut off. It needs to be found and fused before it can be used."

"Dual attributes? Isn't it said that the Puppet Heart can only have a single attribute?"

"Who said that? What I said before was that you can't have two Puppet Hearts at the same time, but there's no rule that a Puppet Heart can't have multiple attributes."

"what?"

"Just like how there are single-attribute mages and multi-attribute mages," Ross smiled slightly.

"I see, I understand." Celia nodded, then asked, "How do we find the rest?"

Ross didn't say anything, he just looked at her.

Celia looked down at herself, then crossed her arms to cover her chest. "Lord Ross, can't you just tell me?"

Ross tapped her on the head impatiently. "The Heart of the Death Puppet, its complete attributes are life and death. What attribute do you think it's missing?"

"Lack of life... Really?"

Celia quickly made a connection, her eyes widened, and she summoned the puppet.

Ross shook his head: "No need to summon the puppet. If you let this Death Puppet Heart merge with the puppet heart on your body, you will lose control of this puppet heart. The spells of the life school are quite useful. Let's leave it at that for now."

“Okay.” Celia breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously, “However, Lord Ross, you’ve come all this way, you’ll be disappointed if you can’t take the complete Puppet Heart with you, right? The life-type Puppet Heart I’m using now was also obtained by Lord Ross. If Lord Ross wants it, I won’t say anything.”

Ross shook his head with amusement: "Your life attribute Puppet Heart won't grow legs and run away. If it were fused, I would need to worry about whether it would grow legs and run away."

"Well……"

Celia didn't quite understand this.

Ross reached out and tapped the Death Puppet Heart twice before beginning to inscribe intricate runes.

Celia felt her magic power rapidly depleting again. Fortunately, she had recovered most of it on the way here, otherwise Ross would definitely have drained her dry again. The complex rune carving didn't take long, and Ross soon stopped. Only after the runes had completely entered the heart of the death puppet did he throw it to Celia: "Alright, take it back."

"it is good."

Celia nodded and put the Puppet Heart back.

She rolled over onto the bed, stretched, and hummed softly.

"Phew~ This ended so quickly, I can sleep in now."

As she spoke, she looked at Ross.

Ross was both amused and exasperated. "Sleep with me if you want, you don't need my permission."

"Ok!"

Celia closed her eyes happily, then opened them again after a while: "After things are over here, Lord Ross, where do we go next?"

Ross smiled slightly: "Let's not rush back. Let's see what impact the changes in Twilight Town will have."

"Ok."

……

the next day.

On the bulletin boards of Dawn City and in the Protoss network, Boyce announced that they had successfully dismantled a heretical stronghold that had been entrenched in Twilight Town for many years, capturing numerous fourth-order heretics and a large number of low-order heretics.

These words immediately caused a sensation throughout the city.

The Twilight Cult has been entrenched near Twilight Town for many years and has not been eradicated to this day.

Recently, strange things have happened in Twilight Town, causing widespread panic, with people fearing that Dawn City will also become like Dragon Island.

Boyce's announcement elicited disbelief from the crowd, followed by shock.

As the city lord, even if Boyce were to release false information, he would prepare carefully worded statements to avoid being caught out or made an example of.

Now, such high-profile and exaggerated achievements seem more authentic.

When the public saw Flora from the Temple of Ember on the list of participants, they all looked on in surprise.

"I knew it. How could the city lord and the bishop of the Temple of Dawn possibly take it down?"

"Haha, that's true. We still need to draw bishops from the Holy See to take charge of the work so that we can get it done smoothly."

"Seriously, is it really resolved? It feels unreal. Twilight Town has been plagued by pollution for so long, how could it be resolved so suddenly?"

"Perhaps it's just about dealing with the heretics of the Twilight Cult?"

"No, even the pollution and death aura have been resolved! I just came from there, and I can confirm that the death aura and pollution around Twilight Town have become extremely thin!"

"So powerful? No wonder he's a bishop from the Temple of Ember."

"..."

In the mercenary tavern, Celia sipped her juice and listened to the conversations around her.

"It seems that no one really believes that Dawn City can resolve the anomaly in Twilight Town on its own."

The girl secretly shook her head, realizing that the anomaly was actually resolved by Ross, who was a god.

Well, let's not even talk about them. Even if the Holy Lord himself came, he probably couldn't do what Lord Ross did!
