The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

Page 42

This is a behemoth stripped of its extravagance; all the fancy features and functions have been discarded, leaving only the purest power!

The soldiers couldn't help but take a half step back, staring in awe at this 50-meter-high "small mountain".

Jiang Kehan ​​looked with satisfaction at the behemoth that combined a bulldozer, a cutter, and a road roller into one. If it weren't for using this thing to clear the way, the Mother Nest core would have run away immediately. There would have been no need for her to painstakingly design the Tarantula.

"Let's run them over!"

Jiang Kehan ​​looked at the soldiers who were already unable to contain themselves, as well as the insects around them who were oblivious to their own mortality, and spoke in a relaxed and carefree tone.

"Do I need to teach you? Climb up the ladder and let's go home!"

"go home!"

The soldiers shouted, their joy barely contained, and eagerly sat down inside the machine.

Jiang Kehan ​​chuckled softly and did not go in with the soldiers. She had specially prepared clothes, hot water, and food inside.

She leaped to the top of the machine, looking down at the insects around her who were still unaware of their fate, without a trace of pity in her eyes.

I'm sorry, but I still can't feel any pity for these simple beasts. So, please prepare for your deaths.

Jiang Kehan ​​raised her short staff and began bombarding them with Rain Prayer continuously. The witch's percentage-based magic recovery meant that their endurance would only become more and more terrifying.

Even a little witch like Jiang Kehan ​​could be considered a natural disaster against these non-magical creatures, a natural disaster that was absolutely incomparable.

Soon, the machine started moving. Jiang Kehan ​​herself didn't know how much power she had added to this monster of a size, but when she felt her face being blown around, she knew.

I think I miscalculated again...

Hey, it's okay, this just makes it seem faster, and it's good to get home earlier!

Jiang Kehan ​​looked away, covered her face, squatted down, and began to give up on herself.

I'd better stay away from machinery. With my embarrassing skill level, I'd rather focus on alchemy. I can just bully these bugs, but if the other witches saw me like that, they'd laugh themselves to death.

She was quite self-aware; it was already pretty good that this thing could run.

Jiang Kehan ​​used the terminal to constantly compare their positions, used magic to guide the way, crushed countless insects that had gathered around them, and also crushed the grasslands, forests, and even rocks along the way into roads, which could be considered a good thing for the future expansion of the empire's territory.

Although with the empire's current level of technology, it may take several centuries to spread its influence here.

Finally, they arrived in the capital at dawn the next day.

At first, the residents of the capital were so terrified by the sight of such a hideous steel monster that they all collapsed to the ground, trembling with fear.

But when the first person saw Jiang Kehan ​​standing there, their fear turned to excitement. They shouted to the others, announcing their discovery. Before Jiang Kehan ​​even arrived, they had already opened the city gates, bringing fruits and wine to welcome their hero.

Jiang Kehan ​​watched this scene without stealing the limelight from the soldiers; this was what they deserved.

After the last soldier emerged from the machine, she placed it into her secondary personal space and went to the palace alone.

Inside the palace, the Queen of the Mu'ou tribe also learned of their triumphant return. After cheering with her ministers, she covered her face and shed tears.

No one knows how much pressure this girl, who did not flee with her father, endured before Jiang Kehan ​​arrived, nor does anyone know why she was so determined to stay.

As dusk passed and a new dawn arrived before the eternal night, they were once again entitled to live!

When Jiang Kehan ​​arrived, none of the courtiers dared to utter a sound, except for the Queen, who was still weeping, who remained oblivious.

Jiang Kehan ​​looked at the other person, a rare smile appearing on her face, and walked up to her to wipe away her tears.

"That's all in the past. Now, please prepare a triumphant banquet for the returning soldiers."

The queen stared blankly at the witch before her, opened her mouth, her mind a complete blank, and didn't know how she could agree to the other party's request.

Jiang Kehan ​​didn't linger; she left first with the minister in charge of collecting materials.

She knew that as long as she was there, all the cheers would inevitably be flattery directed at her, so she might as well focus on her own affairs.

Yes, she was preparing to build a production line and start dumping, and Bai Bingbing reminded her that she only had about three more days to stay in this broken space.

Jiang Kehan ​​had no doubt that the witch who could monitor the entire shattered space would misjudge the extinction of the insectoid race. Right now, all she could think about was making money, making money, and making more money!

I've already given so much for you all, it's time for me to reap the rewards.

She squinted, returning to her original intention of harvesting韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting others), and even her steps became lighter as she thought of the lovely witch gold coins that were about to enter her wallet.

Wuhu, little money, here I come!

Chapter 66 The Secret Behind the Shattered Space Without Magic

Three days later, with a satisfied smile on her face, Jiang Kehan ​​activated the mark on the back of her hand and returned to the Vortex Society's sky island.

She couldn't help but look at her spatial bracelet, her eyes filled with intoxication and reminiscence.

This time it's really a windfall. All the effort she put into assisting the Mu'ou Empire was worthwhile. Just the more precious materials in the bracelet that need to be stored separately could sell for at least 700 Witch Gold on the terminal.

Not to mention the large amount of other materials in the secondary portable space. Although the quality is lower, the quantity is far superior. As long as they can be sold, they can earn at least 1500 witch gold!

Hehe, I really am a genius. The guns are selling like hotcakes, and the armor is also a hot seller under the pressure of the remaining Zerg.

Even the accessories that were just there to make up the numbers received widespread praise from the Mu'ou tribe; that's how she got the rare materials for her space bracelet.

However, Jiang Kehan ​​was unaware that she was able to obtain these valuable materials thanks to the audacity of some nobles known as the "treasure chests."

Hmm, I'll go ask Qingran if she'll accept these materials. If we put them online, they might not sell for a while.

Oh right, I still need to go to Qingxue to learn the Alchemist's Laws the day after tomorrow as promised, so it's perfect timing.

Jiang Kehan ​​suppressed her excitement; after all, the material was just material, and she still had to figure out how to deal with it before it became Witch Gold.

"Oh, it looks like Miss Jiang has had a very fruitful haul."

Bai Bingbing tried her best to appear serious, but the sleazy tone of her mouth made her unable to hold back.

No, Bai Bingbing! How can you act so naturally, like you're bullying a little girl?

Jiang Kehan ​​didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She had eaten and taken things out herself, so it was normal for the other party to make sarcastic remarks.

On the contrary, she now felt a little guilty.

I'm not just simply selling things. Of course, can weapons be the same as normal commodities?

She was actually quite surprised that Bai Bingbing would allow her to act so recklessly, and always felt that the other party was deliberately going easy on her, so she was much more tolerant of Bai Bingbing's attitude.

As long as you don't turn on me or hold me accountable, and even if you flirt with me, I can accept it!

As Jiang Kehan ​​thought this, she looked at Bai Bingbing with a hint of kindness in her eyes.

This left Bai Bingbing completely bewildered, and she couldn't help but shiver.

"Miss Jiang, have you misunderstood something?" She looked at Jiang Kehan ​​expressionlessly, feeling that she had to explain.

Jiang Kehan ​​tilted her head in confusion, making a cute nasal sound: "Hmm?"

Bai Bingbing waved her magic, transforming it into a simple diagram for Jiang Kehan ​​to see.

"I know you have doubts about why I didn't stop you from building the production line and selling weapons, but I advised you not to let them even glance at the production line."

She took out her staff, a trident made entirely of azure blue, intricately inlaid with gems, pearls, and fragments of seashells.

"Because they can't understand the principles of weapons. Even if an item is made entirely of local materials, they will be affected by the will of space when they try to disassemble and reverse engineer it, making them seem like idiots."

"But the production line is different. The witch's magic can isolate this influence. You are using the witch's egg of the Noni bird race to provide energy for the production line. It has its own shielding ability, so it may pollute the purity of the rules."

Looking at Bai Bingbing's slightly serious expression, Jiang Kehan ​​felt that her shallow knowledge had been supplemented.

No wonder Bai Bingbing was so calm and made the Mu'ou tribe so obedient, buying her products in large quantities. It turns out they couldn't imitate her.

However, she also had her own doubts and tentatively asked.

"Then why is it necessary to ensure the purity of the rules?"

Jiang Kehan ​​only realized after experiencing it firsthand that although the materials in this broken space were quite precious, in terms of value they were not even as valuable as those transformed into the rules of the witch's world and used as a plantation.

She collected so many materials, yet she could only exchange them for about 2200 witch gold. Even though the Whirlpool Society's income was a hundred times hers, it was still not a project worth maintaining for a society that possessed a great witch.

Bai Bingbing let out a soft laugh, and wisps of white smoke rose from the tip of the trident, enveloping their figures.

"Originally, these things shouldn't be told to the little witch, but since Miss Jiang is an alchemist, it's alright for her to know."

Looking at the smoke enveloping her, Jiang Kehan ​​felt both excited and wary. For a witch, knowledge could be a panacea, or it could be a deadly poison.

However, despite Bai Bingbing's hints and help to her in the shattered space, she chose to suppress the urge to call the police.

Bai Bingbing paid no attention to Jiang Kehan's actions. She simply smiled mysteriously and used her magic to depict a woman whose face was obscured, a figure bound and oppressed by countless chains.

Jiang Kehan ​​immediately understood upon seeing it: this was definitely the will of the shattered space she had emerged from!

"The most valuable thing about the Magic-Free Shattered Space is its unique rules. So, Miss Jiang, who do you think has mastered the most of these rules?" Bai Bingbing smiled.

"Yes, the space itself."

Jiang Kehan ​​was somewhat dazed, as her mindset from her previous life made her subconsciously ignore this issue. After all, in her previous life, things like the will of the world were almost always just background noise.

"Hehe, that's right. Miss Jiang should know about the spells of the Origin School, right? Those are similar to this one."

Bai Bingbing looked at the still weeping Spatial Will with a hint of sarcasm.

"These pure rules can be processed into special items needed by medium and great witches, which is the most valuable part. However, normally this is a win-win situation, and we will not persecute the spatial will."

"This is not conducive to the continuous growth of the space, but there are always some wills that cannot see the situation clearly. Even after being persuaded to surrender, they still think about ambushing the witch, which can only lead to this situation."

No wonder I faced such intense pressure when studying the concept of the common origin of enemies and allies. So it turns out that the concept was directly extracted from a creature that had already reached its peak?

And the rules themselves were actually source material! Jiang Kehan ​​felt like her head was about to explode!

How on earth did such an incredible creature as a witch come into being? This is just too outrageous!

Fortunately, I am a witch too.

Jiang Kehan ​​suddenly felt a mix of relief and lingering fear. She couldn't imagine how terrible it would have been if she hadn't successfully transformed into a witch during her transmigration. Looking at the spatial will's inability to die, she shuddered.

I absolutely, absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the Witch Organization because of a crime, absolutely not!

Jiang Kehan, who had been somewhat lax about the so-called atonement task, was given a stern warning and felt a sense of lingering fear.

"I understand, thank you very much for your explanation, Miss Bai Bingbing." Jiang Kehan ​​looked at her gratefully, which made Bai Bingbing hesitate for a moment.

What I'm about to share isn't exactly valuable news, is it...?

However, this was a good thing. Bai Bingbing convinced herself with a clear conscience, winked at Jiang Kehan, and smiled as she spoke.

"Then please keep me as a friend, Miss Jiang. I look forward to our next collaboration. The Whirlpool Society is willing to make friends with more promising little witches."

She had already made it clear that she wanted to invest in Jiang Kehan, but Jiang Kehan ​​was still troubled by her mission to atone for her sins, and only spoke casually.

"I'm looking forward to it too, but I have something to do. Let's talk next time."
