Chapter 562 Thank you, Celia
When Celia returned to Dawn City, she received news from the bishop that the castle warehouse had been burned down.

She was stunned.

"What's going on? Weren't they going to deal with me? Why did they turn around and burn down the city lord's castle warehouse?"

Celia was completely baffled by the Twilight Cult's logic.

All I can say is... no wonder they're a heretic?

It's just that I'm different from others.

The bishop appeared directly to deliver the message to Celia. After informing her, he said seriously, "I suspect this is a conspiracy by the Twilight Church. They are trying to force us to give up protecting you by creating trouble for us."

After a moment's thought, Celia realized that what the bishop said made some sense.

If the shadow mage discovered the bishop and his group's whereabouts and decided to temporarily withdraw, then their sudden appearance in the city, causing trouble for Dawn City, would make sense.

“Burning down the castle warehouses might be a warning to me and Boyce that they have the ability to infiltrate castles and temples, and that we must deal with this seriously.”

"sneak into……"

Celia narrowed her eyes and said, "Your Excellency, if you don't mind, I can help check the magic array of the Temple of Dawn to prevent such a thing from happening in the temple."

The bishop paused for a moment, then his eyes lit up: "Really?"

Celia nodded.

"Alright, then I'll leave it to Miss Celia."

The bishop was overjoyed.

He was a fifth-tier mage and the head of a temple in a major city. In addition, since Celia had stayed in Dawn City before, he knew more or less about Celia's deeds.

Putting everything else aside, his help in building the magic array in the Southern Border City caught his attention.

Although he did not specifically investigate the strength of the magic array after the reconstruction of Southern Border City, the protective magic arrays of border cities are generally designed by the array diagram masters of the Holy Court headquarters.

The fact that headquarters tacitly approved of appointing Celia as the chief designer indicates that Celia's expertise in magic arrays is quite high.

At that time, she wasn't even a fourth-tier mage.

My current mastery of magic arrays is only getting better, not worse!
What are you waiting for?
The bishop invited Celia directly to the temple to refine the temple's magic array.

Celia glanced at it and found some loopholes: "Hmm, there are indeed some loopholes, but it's okay. Although these loopholes could allow someone to sneak in without anyone knowing, they are minor issues. Watch me, I'll fix them for you before tonight."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Celia."

……

"Tsk tsk, the castle's protective magic array is really simple and easy to understand."

Having successfully captured the two fifth-order heretics, they returned to their secret hideout, quite pleased with themselves.

"continue?"

"Of course we'll continue. Lord Deadpool said the girl should keep the divine gift, but the losses to the Secondary Underworld are entirely the fault of the City of Dawn. We should at least recoup our costs from them."

"Where to go next?"

"Of course it's the temple! It wasn't just the city lord who came to destroy our stronghold; there was also the temple's bishop, and they even summoned a high-ranking mage from Shining City."

"Ahem, forget about the sorcerers in Shining City, it's too dangerous there."

"Hmph, I know."

"When to act?"

"Let's do something big tonight, while everyone's asleep. Hmm, let's blow up the temple's wishing well."

"good idea."

……

In the evening, Celia finished adjusting and modifying the magic circle and bid farewell to the bishop.

“Thank you very much for your help, Miss Celia. Unfortunately, we have nothing to offer you. We can only inform the Temple of Ember about your assistance and ask them to convey our gratitude,” the bishop said. Celia waved her hand, “You put aside your own affairs to help me, this is just my way of repaying you. There’s no need for thanks. Just don’t let any corrupt elements colluding with heretics appear in the temple.”

An awkward expression flashed across the bishop's face, but he nodded earnestly: "Don't worry, it definitely won't happen again."

Celia smiled, not taking it seriously.

Whether it will happen or not is not something one person can decide.

Just as she was about to leave, the bishop took out a card and said, "Miss Celia, you are currently being watched by the Twilight Cult. They are lurking in the shadows and could harm you at any time. I suggest you return to Ember City to hide. It is much safer there than Dawn City. This is a one-time teleportation card for the directional teleportation device. You can use the directional teleportation device in Dawn City once. Consider it a gift to you."

Celia glanced at the teleportation card, nodded and accepted it, smiling slightly, "It seems Your Excellency is eager for me to leave as soon as possible."

The bishop gave an awkward smile. "No, it's nothing. I'm just concerned about Miss Celia's safety."

Celia said nothing and waved goodbye.

Ross chuckled, "It's obvious the bishop is eager for you to leave, afraid you'll stay a couple more days and discover something."

"Is there anything shady in the temple?" Celia asked.

Ross said, "Who knows?"

This means that it definitely exists, but he won't say it.

Celia thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"Forget it, as long as it's not a serious problem, let's leave it for now."

Holding the teleportation card, Celia pondered, "Why don't we just teleport to the border and go to the Elf Empire?"

Anyway, the teleportation card doesn't restrict you to going to Shining City.

Celia has taken a long leave this time, and she's not going back anytime soon.

but……

Celia looked at Ross, waiting for him to speak and decide where to go.

Ross nodded. "Let's go to the Elf Forest."

"Okay \(^o^)/~"

Without hesitation, Celia went directly to the teleportation device, used the teleportation card to use it for free, and teleported to Southern City.

After she left, the bishop at the temple, who had received the news, breathed a sigh of relief.

"They're finally gone. Miss Celia was putting too much pressure on us in Dawn City."

He had heard about Celia's deeds.

Despite the fact that the Twilight Cult is 'cowardly', they dared to openly cause trouble after ending the siege of the stronghold, and now they even dared to openly burn down the warehouse of the city lord's castle.

If we continue to stay in Dawn City, who knows what even more outrageous things might happen.

For everyone's safety, the bishop wished that Celia would leave as soon as possible.

Now that he's gone, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Just then, he suddenly sensed something, his expression changed, and he quickly rushed out to the side of the wishing pool.

He looked at the two people who had appeared at the Wishing Pool, preparing to do something, but whose magic circle had been activated, and sneered: "Well, they actually dare to come here."

The two looked completely bewildered: "You... wait, how could the magic circle suddenly activate?"

"Never mind that, just run!"

"Do you think this is a place you can come and go as you please?" the bishop roared, summoning a puppet.

“Otherwise?” the two fifth-order heretics retorted.

Enemies meeting are bound to be furious, and the battle erupts instantly.
