So I became a witch

"It's just a very common thing, don't take it to heart." Xia Luohua said.

Since she said so, presumably nothing will happen, so I turned my attention back to the rich breakfast in front of me.

Well, it's quite delicious.If the perverted personality is excluded, Lily can be called a perfect maid. I really hope that Luo Yuze and my younger sister Luo Tianlian can also learn cooking skills from her.

At this moment, the door of the living room suddenly rang.Lily opened the door, just in time to see a smuggler standing there.

"Guests, the carriage is ready, if you don't mind, please use it for transportation." The smuggler said.In fact, I can't tell which one it is (at least in my opinion, the smugglers all look almost exactly the same), but judging from the voice, it should be the village chief who led us the way yesterday.

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you." Xia Luohua nodded.

Out of curiosity, I still couldn't help asking: "Well, what happened outside?"

The smuggler paused and said, "No, it's not a big deal... just occasionally, monsters in the forest attack."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu monster..." I glanced at the smuggler quietly, and quickly looked away before it looked over, and coughed lightly as if nothing happened, "Well, although I don't know if I can help I'm busy, if you don't mind..."

"Where is the carriage parked?" Xia Luohua interrupted me.

"It has been prepared in the stable behind the mansion. It is very smart and will automatically lead the guests to the border of the Forest of Eternal Night, but the rest of the way needs to be done by the guests themselves." The smuggler said respectfully.

"Really? I see, you go down." Xia Luohua waved her hand lightly like a queen, and the smuggler bowed again, and slowly closed the door.She turned her head, looked at me and said, "Did you hear me? Then get everything ready, we're leaving."

"……learn."

After tidying up the used things for the convenience of the next occupant, we went to the stable at the back of the mansion through the back door.As the smuggler said, a wooden but very brand-new carriage happened to be parked there, and the carriage behind it was big enough to seat seven or eight people. It was just a creature pulling the cart, and it didn't look like me at all. The horse in my impression looks like a combination of a lion, a snake and a dog. Except that it also has four legs and a head, I can't see the connection between this thing and a horse at all.

"Don't worry, although this guy looks scary, he's still reliable...probably."

The "horse" seemed to understand what I said, and let out a low growl.Unlike other residents here, it also has Kalizi entwined around it, shining with white light.Although very faint, it is enough to illuminate the road ahead.

"Okay, it's almost time, let's sit in quickly." Xia Luohua took the lead in entering the carriage, and after untying the reins tied to the stake, Lily and I also sat in.

Xia Luohua sat at the front, holding the rein in her hand, motionless.

"Uh, what's wrong?" I asked.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "No, I just forgot how to drive..."

"...Unfortunately, I thought you were an old driver because you looked so confident."

"Don't make noise, let me think about what to do..." Xia Luohua said with some uncertainty, "Well, it's okay to go to the border between Yongye Forest and Buluo Desert?"

"Can it understand what you say to 'horse'?"

"Probably, this kind of creature is generally very smart...ah, it's moving."

Seeming to really understand what Xia Luohua meant, the 'horse' let out a long neigh, pulled the carriage and drove slowly towards the back gate of the town.From the looks of it, it doesn't matter if there is no rein, right?

Unlike when I came here, there was almost no one on the street at this time, and the doors and windows of every house were tightly closed, like a dead city.After confirming with the guard on the city wall, it slowly opened the back door, and the carriage entered the forest smoothly.

"Be careful." Lily drew a circle in the air casually, and the light bullet fired from it accurately hit the target in front of us, completely penetrating its body.After confirming that his companion was dead, the surrounding monsters screamed and disappeared into the forest in an instant.

"Is this... a wolf?" The carriage continued to move forward steadily, as if it was not frightened by the scene just now.When passing by the corpse of the monster, I glanced at it, and found that it was very similar to the wolf on the earth, but it was several times bigger in size, more than three meters long, and had a pair of upper fangs that broke through the sky. "Could it be that the monster attack just now refers to this guy?"

Chapter 13 desert

"Well, but there shouldn't be much talk about the back door, so it won't get in the way."

As Xia Luohua said, because of the barrier of the moat, there were not many monsters behind the city, and the only three were frightened by Lily's clever shot just now, and hurriedly fled around.

Not far away, in the direction we came from, there was a loud shout of killing. It seemed that the village chief and the monsters had officially fought. The scale seemed to be quite large, and the sound even reached our side.Through the dense jungle, I can vaguely see the situation beyond the main city gate. The fire has dyed half the sky red. Human figures and monsters are fighting in the fire. There are screams and roars one after another. No matter which side falls, Immediately there will be backup personnel to continue this seemingly endless battle.

Seeing such a scene, only one word emerged in my mind.

too weak.

That's right, both the orcs and the monsters are too weak.It is true that they are much stronger than ordinary people, but they are still much worse than formal demon hunters. Even without the appearance of star-spreaders, slightly stronger demon hunters are enough to fight against both sides. All are buried here.

Obviously no matter which side is fighting with their lives, people die all the time, but there is no wave in my heart.Is it because you are used to it?Or does it mean that I have gone further and further into the realm of inhumanity?

In fact, it should have been discovered long ago, right?It's just that I have been deceiving myself, believing that I am still human.

"It has nothing to do with you. To this world, we are just outsiders. If we act casually, it will only cause unnecessary trouble. The reason why that guy asked us to wear robes is also to prevent us from outsiders His identity was exposed." Xia Luohua said suddenly, obviously this guy was driving while looking ahead, but he seemed to know what was going on in my heart.

"I know, but if you can do something, but don't do it, I always feel a little bit sorry." I said with a sigh.

"So, if you are always like this, there must be a limit to a good old man. If it wasn't for me talking just now, wouldn't you just want to follow me to help?"

"...I just want to do what I can." I replied in a low voice.

"Don't be kidding, what can you do with your current body? I'm afraid it won't be enough to stuff someone's teeth. Besides, don't you want to save that girl? If you waste your time in this kind of place, it's time to In the end, what should you do if you are just a little bit short? There is no way to have the best of both worlds in this world. If you want everything, you will get nothing. Moreover, even if you help them, you may not get what you get. Will it be thanks?"

You are just a consequence theory... Even though I want to say that, I can't refute it.It just happened to appear at that time, which shows that the village head may also have some psychology of wanting to take advantage of us. Xia Luohua saw through this, so he left so decisively.Even if we help defeat the wolves, so what?Whether it is for this world or for human society, the power of demon hunters is too powerful. Because they are aware of this, demon hunters choose to hide, hiding in the dark where humans can't see Bar.

This is the same for witches, right?Just as a lion doesn't look down at the ants under its feet, a witch at the top of the world naturally doesn't care what other creatures think, she doesn't destroy the world out of anger or hatred, she just wants to do it. .

Because it is too simple and clear, it makes people laugh out loud.

"We're here," Charlotte said.Attracted by her voice, I raised my head, only to realize that we had walked out of the forest before we knew it.Not far ahead, black sky and white night, desert and forest form a perfect dividing line.Not far away is the sky with the scorching sun hanging high, but our side is still covered in darkness, as if there is an invisible barrier that blocks the light and divides the world into two.Looking at this scene, which seems to be forcibly merging two irrelevant spaces together, I was a little stunned.

"Don't be surprised, get out of the car quickly, we have to go the rest of the way by ourselves." Xia Luohua jumped out of the carriage and stretched a lot.

"This, what's going on?" I jumped out of the car, exclaimed, and subconsciously opened the Eye of Void.

……how to say?The level of information is quite chaotic, and it is similar to what I guessed just now. The spaces between the two do not overlap at all, as if the two pieces of paper were cut out and then forcibly spliced ​​together.

What is going on in this world?

Xia Luohua did not explain further, patted the "horse" on the buttocks, and said "Thank you", the horse seemed to understand her words, let out a long hiss, and dragged the carriage to turn around , disappeared in the darkness of the forest in a short while.

"Is this the never-setting desert? Sure enough, it looks like the never-setting sun." I muttered.As soon as I stepped into the desert, I felt a wave of heat rushing towards my face, and even the air was distorted because of the excessive heat. Although it was much worse than the witch's flame, it was still a temperature enough to make people feel uncomfortable.Even through a layer of soles, I feel that the heat is transmitted from the soles of the feet to the tip of the head.Looking around, there are large and small hillsides composed of golden sand everywhere, which is another style compared with the forest.After just walking a few steps, I felt like my whole body was going to collapse. Charlotte and Lily seemed to be okay. They were wearing such thick dresses and maid uniforms, but they didn't sweat at all. The extremely powerful body conditioning ability began to work.In comparison, my power has been declining since the battle with the witch, so please take care of me a little bit.

"Probably, how far is it?" I said out of breath, only feeling that every step weighs a thousand catties.

"It's not very far. The place where we got off happened to be the closest area to the 'tower'. It's only about a 5-minute walk away." Xia Luohua said lightly.

"Really? That's good. Well, at least there are no monster attacks here." I said half-jokingly, and felt my feet shake as soon as I finished speaking.

"Hey? Hey!"

Chapter 14 The Tower

Lily picked me up decisively and retreated. From the place where I was standing just now, a huge mouth broke through the sand. The body was five or six meters long, forming a shadow on the endless desert.It twisted its huge body, and the countless fangs in its huge round mouth collided together, making a piercing sound, and attacked us again at a terrifyingly fast speed.

"It's so noisy!" Xia Luohua took out a giant sword casually. After a burst of sword light, the giant insect's body was cut off by the lazy waist, and the yellow liquid sprayed out fell on the desert, emitting a corrosive "sizzle" sound. sound.

"Desert worms are the most common creatures here. Most of the time they like to hide on the sandy bottom. Once prey pass by, they will attack without hesitation. So don't take it lightly because of the wide field of view here. The biggest danger It often comes from invisible places... That's what I said, but this kind of thing is not very powerful, although it looks scary, but it is only in the category of 'creatures'."

"Really, what the hell is this world? Where are there so many strange things?" I complained, and then decisively used the Void Eye.For me who has lost all my strength, the Eye of the Void is the only ability I can use now. Although it consumes a lot, it can still be supported for a while.

Sure enough, besides the place where I was standing just now, there are more or less various traps hidden in other areas.Although with Lily and Xia Luohua as bodyguards, it is completely possible to walk sideways in this world, but it is always better to do something less. Under my leadership, several people bypassed various trap areas and marched towards the target area without hindrance.

"Is that the tower you mentioned?" I looked at the tall tower connecting the sky and the earth in the distance, and exclaimed.

We are standing on a small hill, looking at the distant scenery.Although we are still a few hundred meters away from the tower, the tower in our eyes has become very huge. It is said that Nuwa once broke the Ao to stand up to the four poles. If the pillar of the sky that supports the separation of the world has a shape , is probably what it looks like in front of me.

Although the diameter of the tower is quite large, compared with its invisible height, it looks much smaller. From a distance, it looks like a toothpick between the sky and the earth. Although it is slender, it makes people unable to Ignore its presence.

"That's the tower, the Tower of Babel. If someone commits a heinous thing but cannot be convicted, he will be exiled to the tower, and he will not leave until he dies, so this place is also called the 'Tower of Eternity'." Xia Luohua said softly.

"Although it sounds beautiful, when I think about its origin, I don't think so at all." I said.

After careful observation, I found that under the tower, there seemed to be an open space specially left for separating something.As Xia Luohua said, with the tower as the center, different scenery appeared on each of the four sides.The City of Dawn in the east, the Buset Desert in the south, the Twilight Sea in the west, and the Evernight Forest in the north.The four are not completely connected together. Under the action of some force, the space of this world is distorted, as if we started from the forest, but suddenly ran to the south of the desert.Although it sounds quite unreliable, in fact, this kind of integration is very stable, as if it was embedded into the space, and the culprit of all this, if I guessed correctly, is located in the center of the island. , the Tower of Babel reaching the sky.

"It's like a magnet, forcibly distorting and blending the surrounding space together to form its own protective shield." I murmured.The strength of the information representing the Tower of Babel in the eyes of the void has broken through the sky. This is the most powerful information collection I have ever seen, except for the witch. No wonder you can lock the space near you. If it wasn't for Xia Luohua Tell me in advance that this is a place to hold criminals, and that it is the ultimate weapon that can destroy the universe, and I will believe it without hesitation.

"It seems that you already know something, so don't I need to explain it?"

"Is this place really just for criminals?" I asked.

"Who knows? At least that's what I know." Charlotte shrugged.

"Then who manages such a tall tower?"

"No."

"... Huh?" I was dumbfounded.Even the prison in Siberia, known as the freest prison in the world—the prison doesn’t even have walls, but no prisoner has ever thought of escaping from it, because no one can guarantee that they can escape across the extremely cold ice sheet without any supplies— —At least there are people guarding it. How can this kind of completely laissez-faire tower really dare to say that no one has ever been able to escape from it?I'm afraid that all criminals are fools.

"I don't know what the truth is, anyway, that's what everyone says." Xia Luohua said indifferently.While talking, we have come to a place less than tens of meters away from the tower. The closer we get, the more we can appreciate its height. Even when we look up, we can only see part of it.

"Wait a minute." I stopped and stretched out my hand to the air in front of me.

"..." His hand was blocked by something.It's not an air wall, but the entire space is locked.It seems that the distortion of this island is not only due to the terrible gravity of the tower itself, but also a kind of self-protection ability of the tower. Unless it has enough power to break the space, it is probably impossible to enter it.Looking at it this way, I am a little bit convinced of the authenticity of the title "Eternal Tower".

"But if that's the case, won't even we get in?" I asked.

"It's really troublesome, so let's just blow it up here." Xia Luohua took out a pile of bomb-shaped dangerous goods expressionlessly.Although I didn't know what it was, I instinctively sensed the crisis and took a step back subconsciously.

"Wait, are you kidding me?" I asked with a twitching corner of my mouth.

"Well, I'm joking." Xia Luohua replied seriously in a tone that didn't seem to be joking at all.

"But you don't mean to take back what you have at all."

"..." Xia Luohua represented her own wishes with silence.

"In short, put away that dangerous thing first..."

"I lost it."

"Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" I decisively hid behind Lily's maid skirt.

The bomb didn't explode, but stopped in mid-air, and then disappeared little by little.

"It doesn't seem to work..." I breathed a sigh of relief, just when I thought Xia Luohua would give up, she suddenly took out a bomb dozens of times larger than before, "Then, let's try a few more times."

"Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!"

Chapter 15 Administrator

"Wow ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Who, it's so noisy so early in the morning, don't you know it's forbidden to make noise here?" A fourth voice besides us suddenly broke into our conversation.

At the bottom of the tower, a crack suddenly appeared on the originally flawless wall, and a human head with long hair suddenly emerged from it, shouting at us.

"Ah, sorry." I apologized subconsciously, and then suddenly realized the existence of the problem, "Huh? That? Are you?"

"Ah, do you want to come in? Really, I should have said it earlier." The woman yawned big, and slowly walked out of the crack.Feel free to part the front bangs to the sides.It was a very ordinary-looking woman, so ordinary that people would forget it when they looked away. Her figure was bulging forward and backward. She wore a white gown and black shorts, but she didn't seem to be wearing underwear, and a large piece of skin was exposed , is completely dressed like a house girl.

"Well, are you...?" I asked puzzled.

"Are you a newcomer? Really, don't ask any more boring questions." With her five fingers together, she casually swiped in the air like swiping a card, and the space barrier that blocked us just now suddenly opened up a place for people to pass through. mouth.

"Hey? Hey? Hey!!!" I stared at the woman tightly.The space shield blocking us was cut open so easily, I didn't even see how she did it at all.Moreover, there is no fluctuation of star power at all around. Could it be that there are existences like Leo and Clarence?Although Xu Zhiyan can't see through her for the time being, my instinct tells me that the woman in front of me is by no means inferior to those two, and may even be stronger.

"Your goal is this tower, right? Then come in quickly, that door won't last long." The woman reminded us in a timely manner.

I just woke up like a dream, and Xia Luohua came inside through the invisible door together.

"Well, I thought it was just some strange children, but I didn't expect that even you came here." Seeing us approaching, the woman suddenly opened her sleepy eyes, stared at Xia Luohua, and showed a strange smile.

"Say it yourself, don't talk about boring things." Xia Luohua said coldly.

"Yes, yes, really, even if you grow up, you are still so unlovable." The woman shrugged and said.

"Well, do you know each other?" I looked at the woman and then at Xia Luohua.

"Huh, who knows." The woman glanced at Xia Luohua and smiled mysteriously, "Since she brought it, let me introduce myself. I forgot my real name, so I'm called Fei." Well, it is the NO.27 resident of this tower, and it is also the administrator here."

"Uh, didn't you say that there is no administrator here?" I asked Xia Luohua strangely.

"That's just what this guy claims to be. In fact, he is a guy who guards the gate and manages the elevator." Xia Luohua said angrily.

"Huhu, you are still so unforgiving. Who are you looking for this time?" the woman said.

"A man was sent here a few months ago."

"Oh, it's that guy. Because it's a rather boring man, I just watched it a few times and ignored it. Boy, that's really messy...so do I need to notify you in advance?"

Xia Luohua nodded: "Alright, I don't want to go to him in such a sudden situation. Just tell that man our identities, and he will naturally understand what to say."

"Then let's do this." The woman walked back into the gap behind her, and walked out again after a while, "I've already told him, how about it, do you want to come to my house for a while?"

"Eh? Home?" I didn't turn around the corner.

"Come on, come on, you're welcome, you are idle anyway." The woman walked behind us enthusiastically and pushed us forward.Although she doesn't seem to have much muscle, she is very strong. After contacting Xia Luohua with her eyes, I had no choice but to give up resistance and obediently entered the gap.

"This is...!" As soon as I entered the door, I was overwhelmed by the luxurious scene in front of me.

"How is it? My home is not bad, right?" the woman said very proudly.
