Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

Doris asked blankly, "Professor Abros, why didn't you tell us this yesterday?"

“These are things you’d have to talk about on the Gold Coast, but who knew you’d make it all the way there in a day?” Abros sighed. “So, you might not run into any other teams.”

Benovia raised a crucial question: "If the area we purified today doesn't reach today's mirror image area tomorrow, won't we need to purify it again?"

Abros shook his head again and said, "If the purification is complete, it won't happen. The lighthouse generates many mirror areas, but the pollution is interconnected. As long as there are no residues, no matter which mirror space that area is in, no monsters will be generated in a short period of time. Don't worry."

The girls breathed a sigh of relief.

As they chatted, they arrived at the school's registration area.

At this time, many teams had already returned to report.

But no team was like Celia's team, with everyone carrying large and small bags as if they were moving house.

Their appearance attracted everyone's attention.

Chapter 149 Taking stock of gains

In the evening, the school camp, especially the registration area, was filled with a large number of returning students.

Some people had a good harvest and were very happy, while others had no harvest or were even injured and looked dejected.

Whether they were happy or frustrated, they all turned their attention to the girls who had appeared.

I noticed that everyone was carrying something, even the puppets were carrying something, and one girl was even carrying a person?

Everyone couldn't help but start talking about it.

"Did they just arrive today? Why are they carrying so much stuff?"

"Was the girl being carried injured? So they came out of the ruins?"

"What are they carrying? It can't be spoils of war, can it?"

"..."

Hearing the hushed discussions around her, Benovia said to Doris, "Doris, you all stay here to report and take stock of the spoils. Celia and I will take Phil back to rest, how about that?"

Doris, enjoying the attention from those around her, nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, you guys go ahead, I'll take care of things here."

She couldn't wait to see the amazed looks on her classmates' faces.

Celia felt this was too high-profile, so she agreed to go back with Benovia first.

However, just as they were about to leave, Phil, who was on their backs, woke up.

She looked around and said, "Celia, put me down, thank you."

"It's okay, I'm not tired. Let me take you back to rest first."

"I've rested enough, put me down now, Celia. You've already gone to so much trouble. Now it's time to report for duty and take stock of the spoils. I need to report the purification progress to the school."

Sensing Phil's struggle, Celia had no choice but to put her down.

She was a little unsteady when she landed and needed to be supported by Celia, but she quickly recovered. She was still a little unsteady when she walked, but she was able to walk.

Since Phil insisted on reporting, Celia had no choice but to let her have her way.

Because they were so prominent, and because they had a professor-level mentor with them, the crowd at the registration area parted to make way for them.

Of course, they weren't trying to cut in line, but rather just passing through. They were being guided by another mentor, one specifically assigned to their second-tier team.

The instructor was a little stunned to see that the group and the puppet were carrying large bags and small packages.

Abros laughed, "These are all their spoils for this trip."

Doris said, "Because there were so many things, we didn't sort them in detail and brought them all back at once."

As she spoke, she opened a package, and a large number of spoils of various shapes and sizes fell to the ground with a clatter.

Gasps and exclamations came from the surrounding area.

Crash-!

All the bags were opened, and their contents were emptied out, piling up on the ground into a small mountain.

The mentor, seeing this for the first time, stood up abruptly, adjusted his glasses, and asked, "Did you loot the ruins? So much of it?"

“It’s almost like raiding,” Abros said, laughing and crying at the same time. “They directly provoke the monsters, attracting all the monsters near the Gold Coast and killing them all.”

tutor:"……"

Many students: "..."

The way they looked at Celia and the others changed.

Someone recognized one of them, "That's Doris! She became a second-tier mage before the year-end assessment, and she seems to be a candidate for Holy Maiden for this year's Holy Court!"

"I remember now, that's Phil, the most famous holy priest in the class next to ours, I think he's also at the second level."

“Anke is also at the second tier.”

"That looks like Celia, she's also at Tier 2."

"So this is a team entirely at the second tier?"

"That's not surprising."

"..."

The captain of the second-tier team that had just finished registering in front of Celia and the others couldn't help but retort when he heard what everyone was saying: "What are you thinking? Even a second-tier team couldn't do something this outrageous!"

One teammate suggested, "Captain, why don't we try their method tomorrow?"

Snapped!

Abros instantly appeared in front of the student who made the suggestion and struck him on the head with a stick.

"What they did is not something ordinary people can do. Good kids, don't try to imitate them, or you'll die without even knowing it."

The student rubbed his head, looking aggrieved and completely puzzled.

We're both at the second level, so why can they do it but we can't?

Abros said calmly, "If you insist on trying, I won't stop you, but I need to remind you that the teleportation badges issued by the school will result in a minimum score reduction of half for each use, and a zero score for two uses."

Meanwhile, with the help of many mentors, the inventory work on Celia's side was quickly completed.

These items had already been classified once while they were inside the ruins, so further subdivision and identification can be done very quickly.

"There are a total of 132 loot items, including 52 magic crystals and 80 various basic materials, including a rare piece of equipment called the [Smiling Mask]. Basic materials are worth 1 point each, and rare materials are worth 10 points each, for a total of 141 points. Should we hand them all in? Handing in all basic materials will be worth 1 silver coin each, and rare materials will be worth 20 silver coins each."

Of these items, only the basic magic crystals are verifiable, costing 1 silver coin each. The value of the others varies depending on their rarity; some might not even fetch 10 copper coins, while others are worth as much as rare materials.

Benovia glanced at the non-magic crystal materials and looked at the others with a questioning gaze: "Most of these are materials for magic arrays and potions used only at the first tier. They have been transformed into monsters due to pollution and erosion, so their effects are somewhat reduced compared to the original materials. Do you want them? I suggest you give them all to the school."

“I don’t want to,” Doris said first.

“I don’t want it either,” Phil said.

“These are of little use to me,” Anke shook her head.

Everyone looked at Celia, who shook her head: "Let's give it to the school, I don't need it."

She doesn't think much of these contaminated materials. Whether making scrolls or learning magic arrays, using these materials will affect judgment and is not worth the effort. They are only suitable for beginners or spellcasters and array masters who do not have high requirements for quality.

Although she didn't want them, looking at those materials still made Celia feel a pang of heartache.

"The ruins have contaminated all the materials within their vicinity. These materials, which are naturally imbued with magic, will transform into various monsters if the contamination concentration is too high. But even if they are purified after the transformation, the effect is greatly reduced... What a waste."

Celia thought with a pang of heartache.

Ross said, “There’s nothing wasted. This lost lighthouse itself has the ability to cultivate materials and accelerate growth. The ruins are accelerating the growth of materials, turning them into monsters to delay and counter your exploration and investigation.”

Celia was taken aback: "This ruin is inhabited by living beings?"

Ross shook his head: "The ruins themselves are not living things, but the things hidden deep within the ruins are living things."

A little bit of writer's block...

Chapter 150 How Rumors Arise

At night, a legend began to circulate in the temporary camp of the Holy Magic Academy.

"Have you heard? The Saintess Squad killed over a hundred monsters in one go, and their loot piled up like a small mountain, earning them over a hundred points!"

"Have you heard? The Saintess Squad ventured deep into the ruins, killed two hundred monsters, and their spoils are piled up like mountains!"

"Have you heard? The legendary Saintess Squad entered the Lighthouse, killed a thousand monsters, and their loot is so plentiful it can't even fit at the registration desk!"

"Have you heard? The Saintess Squad almost cleared the Lighthouse..."

……

"???"

Hearing the increasingly outrageous rumors, Celia was filled with questions.

"This is getting more and more outrageous! Don't they have anything better to do?!"

At this moment, Celia was preparing to go to the mercenary market to continue yesterday's business.

She carried a small bag containing a folding stool, a folding table, a wooden sign, several scrolls, and various tools for modifying runes.

I had just passed by a place where many students were resting and gathered when I heard outrageous rumors about their battle that day.

Fortunately, none of these people had actually seen her; they only knew of this Saintess Squad through hearsay that they had done amazing things.

Ross laughed: "It's a good thing your Protoss network isn't very developed. Although you have video calls, you don't have the function or platform to freely upload short videos, otherwise the scene of you counting your spoils would have been posted on the Protoss network long ago."

Celia said, "It seems that the school's Protoss Wall supports uploading the video recorded by Yesterday's Replay, but the process is very troublesome. You have to go to the Protoss network administrator who manages the Protoss Wall."

"The Protoss Network relies too much on magic and is not mature enough. It will be interesting when it is mature. At that time, your every move will be exposed to the eyes of the whole world."

"Oh? How scary."

The thought of that scene sent chills down Celia's spine.

Forget it, forget it, don’t think about it anymore.

The gold coins are more important right now.

The girl arrived at the stall from last night.

There were no seats available, but the owner of the Puppet Heart shop was very hospitable and offered her a seat, even bringing out the folding stool from last night.

Celia declined the other person's folding stool, took out her own folding stool, set up a small table, placed the carving knife and scroll on it, stuck the sign on the ground to the side, and began to open for business.

Seeing that she had everything ready, the shopkeeper next to her immediately said in a fawning manner, "Hello, esteemed lady, my name is Karl, and I am a traveling merchant. May I ask your name?"

Celia glanced at him and said, "Celia."

"So it's the renowned Lady Celia, your name is legendary, bards sing of your greatness..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking."

Celia interrupted the compliment, feeling goosebumps all over.

"As a token of my appreciation for reserving a stall spot, I can upgrade two of your connection devices for 50 silver coins."

"Two...that's fine too, thank you, great Ms. Celia."

"If you keep praising it like that, the price will go up to one gold coin, okay?"

"Ahem...then I'll leave it to Miss Celia."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper handed over two Magic Puppet Hearts.

In a temporary camp like this, the Puppet Heart is probably the hardest thing to sell, just like selling graphics cards in a vegetable market. Celia doesn't know why this shopkeeper is so insistent on selling Puppet Hearts here.

Of course, according to Ross's own words, her behavior was like applying a screen protector at a market.

If he hadn't helped out last night, he probably would have been laughed at by Carl, who was also struggling to cook, when he got back.

Celia took the Puppet Heart, skillfully disassembled it, and began modifying the runes on the linking device.

Not long after she started working, several mercenaries walked over from a short distance away.

"Yes, that's her!"

After a faint voice was heard, the mercenaries immediately came over and surrounded Celia's stall.

"Shh, don't disturb their work. If they get angry, all of us won't be enough to beat them up."
