Chapter 733 Relics Quest
Ross was also watching the girls chattering away, and he found it quite interesting.

Of course, he only allowed Celia to see him.

If Phil and Benovia had also seen him, the discussion wouldn't have been so relaxed. Even if Phil and Benovia hadn't noticed each other, they would have unconsciously become reserved, probably having to look at Ross eight hundred times before saying a single word.

Phil wanted to see if his words had displeased Ross, while Benovia had a million questions to ask.

Only Celia was relatively casual; when they started discussing things, she would treat Ross as if he were invisible, only remembering him after the discussion was over.

Rose didn't seem to care.

This is how he interacts with Celia. In the early days, he didn't know how to maintain his divine status, but now that things are like this, it doesn't matter anymore.

Before long, the discussion about the ruins came to an end, and the Saintess Squad announced its disbandment.

Celia approached Ross and asked, "Lord Ross, do you think this ancient ruin might be the remains of a goddess?"

"That's possible, but we can't rule out the possibility that it was designed by some male god or a Saint-level mage," Ross said with a slight smile.

His statement was practically meaningless; Celia only gleaned one crucial point from it: "In other words, this ancient ruin is indeed man-made, not naturally formed, and its creator was at least a Saint-level mage."

"Ah."

Celia's heart tightened.

The previous man-made ruins caused her a lot of trouble and she suffered greatly.

this……

Fortunately, our strength has improved, and we have a good number of teammates who have cooperated with us many times before.

Celia thought this time it should be easy.

Time quickly came to the next day.

Katherine gathered everyone together, gave them some instructions, and then sent them on their way.

Of the current members of the Saintess Squad, only Celia is relatively well-known, so she disguised herself slightly to avoid any trouble.

As for the others, Doris occasionally encounters acquaintances, who seem to be explorers she met while exploring the ruins.

She would give a brief greeting to the other party, while Celia and the others would be stared at with curiosity.

We arrived smoothly at the entrance to the ruins, a tunnel that had been excavated and was winding downwards.

Yesterday, we learned about the situation of this ruin. This tunnel was not actually the entrance, but was accidentally discovered underground when the Holy Court and the Ishtar Royal Family were jointly investigating the underground within the Ishtar Empire.

Exploration and investigation underground does not involve digging anywhere randomly. Although there are a few pits like that, most are detected on the surface using various magical detection devices. Excavation will only begin when anomalies are detected underground.

This anomaly covers a wide range, including pollution sensing, abnormal flow of elements and magic, and other unexplained anomalies.

"The Holy Court conducted a large-scale survey of the land and discovered many ancient ruins buried underground, many of which can only be explored by high-level sorcerers. This operation is truly excellent."

Doris sighed as she walked.

“Doris seems very happy,” Benovia said with a smile.

"Of course I'm happy. Since entering the fourth tier, the number of ruins I can conquer has decreased by 90%. I don't want to stay obediently in school," Doris snorted.

As she spoke, she glanced at Celia and added, "Of course, if someone invites me to go and save the world or something, I might reluctantly agree to go."

Celia snorted and mercilessly retorted, "You think you can save the world? Do you even know how to use your purification and healing spells properly?" "Who said that? My purification skills are also very high!" Doris retorted immediately.

Celia looked at Phil, "Phil, release a little of the corrupted form of the Elf Forest, and let our most powerful Doris try it out."

"Forehead?"

Phil blinked, not understanding why the fire was burning her. Looking at Doris, who was rubbing her hands together eagerly, she shook her head: "Doris can definitely do it. Let's not try. That special pollution situation only exists in the Elf Forest. After it was completely purified, it's gone."

"Hmph, did you hear that? Phil said I can do it."

"Is that so?" Celia pretended to suddenly understand and nodded repeatedly. "Then Doris is very capable."

"of course."

Doris was instantly hooked and turned into a pervert.

Before long, the group followed the winding downward passage to the bottom, where an underground space had been expanded into a large room.

The surrounding traces indicate that this is a basement that was recently excavated. The only exception is the floor, which is a stone slab floor full of the marks of time. Around the floor, there are twelve pillars of different sizes, which are severely damaged and arranged in two rows.

But apart from the pillars, there was nothing else here.

According to the first group of sorcerers who excavated the site, there should have been something in front of these pillars, but now it's all gone.

As for the entrance to the ruins, it is located in the middle of the twelve pillars, where there is a subspace entrance.

The entrance was maintained by twelve high-level magic crystals on the pillar. These crystals were not part of the pillar itself, but were placed there by the team that opened the ruins—the joint archaeological team of the Holy Court and the Royal Family. Celia approached the pillar and carefully examined the ruins, discovering that many of the magic array patterns on it were newly added, rather than being part of the pillar itself.

"When this ruin was discovered, the magic array on it was already damaged and unusable. It took the sorcerers of the joint archaeological team half a month to successfully repair it," Doris said.

Half a month?

Celia looked around and figured that if she came herself, it would probably take her about ten days to complete the task.

Of course, if Rose were to help, that would be a different story.

At this moment, the underground area was bustling with activity. Not only was there an official maintenance team stationed there, but there were also traveling merchants and ordinary mercenaries selling items such as scrolls and puppet parts.

Although it was much smaller than a low-level ruin, it was still a small gathering.

Whenever someone emerges from the ruins, they immediately attract the attention of those lingering at the entrance. They rush forward to inquire whether they have made any gains or are willing to sell anything.

They didn't even leave out the official expeditions of the Holy Court and the Royal Family.

"It's quite lively."

After observing for a while, Celia and the others entered the ruins at Doris's invitation.

After passing through the subspace passage, several scrolls appeared before them. One of the scrolls seemed to sense the presence of the Saintess Squad and slowly enlarged in front of them.

A dream world gradually took shape.

At the same time, they also saw the so-called 'mission' appearing before them.
