The Evil God Summoned by the Saintess-Chapter 67 - 65: A White Whale Is Still a Fish, and Fish Can Be Caught with a Rod
Above Lake Beia, deep red water mist surged violently, flowing at the fingertips of a young girl, gradually converging into intricate and mysterious rune patterns.
Regis, along with the knights struggling to weaken the impact of pollution and Benovia, watched this scene.
Originally, he just thought of letting Hilia come to take a look out of respect for the principal’s endorsement, then she would know to retreat when faced with difficulties.
Who knew she would really step in.
Moreover...
"Directly mobilizing the magic power of nature, and even abnormal magic power, to draw runes?" Regis murmured as he watched the scene before him.
Are Array Masters this terrifying?
Regis’s understanding of the three professions that played with runes was limited to Puppet Masters who create Magic Puppets, Curse Masters who play with Scrolls, and Array Masters who create Arrays, with one engraving runes on machines, another on scrolls, and the last on nature and buildings.
But compared to the popularity of Puppet Masters and Curse Masters, Array Masters were more niche, because although they weren’t as precise, they faced more complex drawing conditions, unlike Puppet Masters similar to a shield tunneling machine and a photolithography machine,
Unfortunately, the Array Master from the school came and took a look, then shook his head and left; otherwise, Regis would have surely asked if all Array Masters were like this.
The others followed Regis, observing "Hilia" sketching Array Runes in mid-air, while Benovia intensely stared at Hilia’s back.
"I feel like she’s a different person, a very familiar feeling, like I’ve seen it somewhere..."
Benovia pondered for a moment.
"Do Hiro Association people all have this weird aura?"
Hilia indeed belongs to the Hiro Association! Not a friend!
Benovia looked at Hilia with even more intensity.
Meanwhile, Hilia was obediently hanging in her own Spiritual Space...
Rose stepped in to fight on her behalf, using a trace of Spiritual Power to bind her soul and suspend it.
"The Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association is really pulling out all the stops; the concentration of demonic Qi here is even higher than I imagined. That white whale is eager to come over, and before long, the Summoning Array will be completed. Once you return, start preparing by gathering materials." Rose said while suppressing the pollution uprising via the backdoor of the Summoning Array.
"Mmm, okay." Hilia, who was swinging in her Spiritual Space, nodded repeatedly.
"How are we going to deal with that Sea Successor white whale?"
"It’s simple. A white whale is still a fish; just fish it up with a rod." Rose said calmly.
Hilia: "???"
"Your fishing rod isn’t strong enough; borrow Oston’s rod. His rod can reel in Tier Six fish, plenty strong enough."
"That’s not what I meant..."
Was it a question of the rod’s strength?
This Sea Successor white whale caused quite a stir even before it emerged; take Lake Beia for instance, the ripple effects of pollution spread several kilometers, instantly killing ordinary people.
And this was just one node of the Summoning Array.
Based on Alina’s accidental leak, including Lake Beia and the Deep Red Spring, the Holy Court discovered twelve nodes in total!
And Huijin City was at the very center of all the nodes!
For the Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association to summon something so massive, if it wasn’t a terrifying Tier Six white whale, I’d eat it.
How many Tier Six exist in Huijin City?
Hilia didn’t know; she only knew that the principal was the legendary Tier Six.
He’s the Archbishop of the Holy Court, second only to the Holy Master.
One Tier Six Mage couldn’t resolve a behemoth like a Sea Successor white whale.
And Rose said he wanted her to reel up that white whale.
Just thinking about it...
Was humorous.
"Although the Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association’s Summoning Ceremony is grand in scale, the white whale eventually summoned, Tier Five at most, a Tier Six white whale wouldn’t be this impatient."
’Tier Five isn’t something I can handle either...’
"That’s why you’re gathering those materials to weaken the white whale."
When playing games, the white whale was scary upon first encounter, but after completing the entire event chain, Rose still had to pay a considerable price to kill it.
Later, due to the demand for white whale fins, Rose developed a method to take down whales without injury.
Afterward, he developed an automated fishing Array.
Like playing Minecraft, from initially being overwhelmed by the Wither to taking it down without a scratch, then to creating a Wither farm.
Although current conditions were limited, full automation wasn’t possible, but semi-automation was, without much effort.
While speaking, Rose also modified the Summoning Array to suppress the pollution within Lake Beia.
The air cleared instantly.
He pulled out a sheet of paper, quickly drawing rune patterns on it, then handed it to Regis. "This is a method to alleviate pollution; take it to other nodes. The Array Master will know how to use it."
Regis hurriedly accepted it. "Okay, okay."
His gaze towards Hilia changed.
He never expected that pollution shock, which took several knights to weaken, was effortlessly suppressed by the little girl in front of him.
Is this what it means to be the Holy Daughter?
It’s absurd!
"It’s a shame; we can only suppress it. If we could stop the summoning, that would be best." Regis sighed.
Hilia’s body suddenly shivered.
Just as she regained control of her body, she heard Rose laughing in her head: "Originally, it could have been stopped, but how could I possibly let you stop it?"
The girl took a sharp intake of breath.
So, his claim that once the Summoning Array was activated, it couldn’t be stopped, was a lie!
He made it so the Summoning Array couldn’t be stopped!
His purpose...
Seems like it’s to help me eat fish fins?
A strange sensation bubbled up in Hilia’s heart.
After suppressing the pollution, amidst the amazement of Regis and the knights, Hilia and Benovia boarded the Holy Winged Unicorn’s carriage and left the area.
Regis wanted to escort them further, but Hilia declined.
On the way back, usually keeping as low-profile as possible, Benovia looked warmly at Hilia, who regained control over her body.
"Hilia, are those Golden Hearts enough? I still have ten boxes here."
"?" Hilia was startled. "It’s enough, it’s enough."
"Do you need anything else? Just tell me, I’ll give you whatever I have!"
"???"
Hilia discreetly scooted away from Benovia.
This candidate Holy Daughter was powerful but seemed a bit quirky.
Just as Hilia considered rejecting, Rose suddenly said: "Ask her if she has any Dragon Scale Stone and Ghost Fruit."
"Do I really need to ask?" Hilia was reluctant.
"Ask."
"Alright..."
Hilia awkwardly asked, "Do you have Dragon Scale Stone?"
"Dragon Scale Stone?" Benovia thought for a moment, shaking her head, "I don’t."
"Oh, alright."
"But I know where to find it."
"Where exactly?" Hilia perked up.
"Dusk Town, a place filled with death and pollution. It’s said that a dragon once perished there, and now it’s territory of the Dusk Sect."
"Although I’m not sure what you want it for, I must warn you, Dusk Town is dangerous. You’d best not go; let a High-tier Mage handle it. There should be High-tier Mages in the Hiro Association, right?"
"?"
Ah, no wonder her expression was so strange; she mistook me for someone from the Hiro Association.
Hilia sighed with relief.
She looked towards Rose.
"Should we go there?"
"Go."
"Alright then, Dusk Town, here I come!"
Rose said she could fish up the Sea Successor white whale, so she could.
Hilia started feeling excitement building in her body, her blood seemingly igniting.
A monster so formidable that a group of top-tier individuals couldn’t handle would soon be served up on her plate.
Just thinking about it was exhilarating ٩(๑>◡<๑)۶!
Meanwhile, at the Deep Red Spring, a cluster of Holy Court leaders was fretting.
"Is there really no way to stop this Sea Successor white whale?"
