Chapter 100: The Fearsome Witch
Owen, like a leader on an inspection tour, walked around the house, said a few words of encouragement, and then left.
Yes, he walked around and left, the whole process didn’t take more than three minutes.
The previous panic, anxiety, and psychological struggle now seemed like a fart, completely unnecessary.
But Owen did feel a lot more relaxed, as if he had broken some kind of restriction, and his courage had grown.
In fact, a lot of panic and hesitation comes from within, just like when you’re swimming and you feel uncomfortable but don’t want to go to the toilet, you hesitate for a long time, and then secretly open the floodgates, afraid of being discovered.
As long as you don’t get anxious, it’s usually fine, and you’ll have experience next time, being able to calmly experience the warmth of the heat spreading between your thighs, while your arms cooperate and paddle, speeding up the fusion of the two colored liquids.
However, caution is still needed, so Owen heeded Maya’s advice and abandoned the plan to house the witches in the castle and create a different world Hogwarts, instead choosing Green Shade Town, located deep in the forest, as the place to settle the witches.
In theory, Green Shade Town, completely isolated in the forest, is the most suitable place to house those witches. Firstly, there are no humans there, and with the goblins’ appearance, they are not qualified to look down on the ugly witches, and it will not make the witches who have been persecuted by humans feel nervous and uneasy.
Although the goblins are not much better, with the passage of time, I believe they will get used to it. After all, the goblins in the town now are all civilized and polite, at least to their own people.
But Owen was not sure about the importance of the ruins and did not intend to let outsiders approach them, but after listening to Maya’s suggestion, he hesitated.
The reason why Maya suggested placing the witches in Green Shade Town is mainly because witches are good at potions and curses, so they are often used for assassination or other shady things, leading to witches being directly equated with conspiracy and intrigue.
As a noble, you can keep one or two witches in private, but you must never bring them out into the open, let alone keep a bunch of them, otherwise, it is easy to become a target.
In fact, everyone understands that witches are also magic practitioners and also represent extraordinary power, but their reputation is not good. If you really gather a group of witches, the balance of power will definitely be broken, after all, the means of witches are unpredictable, let alone a group of them, so there is this rule.
If it was before, Owen would not need to consider this issue.
But with the arrival of the Second Northland Pioneer Group, the waters of the Northland have long been muddied, and coupled with the fluctuations caused by the previous mutation, I don’t know how many outsiders will be attracted to come next spring.
These people are unruly, and the more places they are not allowed to go, the more they want to go, and they can’t be stopped.
If Owen dares to list the Magic Horn Forest as a forbidden area and not allow outsiders to enter, just you wait, these outsiders will become like rats, desperately trying to get in.
It’s not impossible to directly kill people, but the more this is the case, the more those people will suspect that there are treasures and artifacts inside, calling friends and friends, who knows what kind of mess it will cause, so another force is needed to stop them.
Green Shade Town is the white glove Owen has prepared for himself, and some things that are inconvenient to do are left to them.
For example, it was they who discovered the ruins, and then made a deal with the territory to exchange stone for supplies, etc. As for what is in the ruins, they don’t know. If you want to go in, you can exchange labor for exploration time. Anyway, whether it is working or exploring the ruins, it is only beneficial and not harmful to Owen.
As for whether anyone will suspect the relationship between the two sides, it depends on whether Maya’s methods are clever, because Owen intends to leave this matter to her.
In this case, the addition of a group of witches is undoubtedly a good thing.
Goblins may start killing each other when they meet, but a group of witches can make them understand to stay calm and try to use peaceful methods.
Witches may not be able to cast magic easily, and they can’t make fireballs fly around, but witches who are proficient in potions and curses are the most frightening.
All kinds of strange potions can silently take people’s lives, and all kinds of curses can make life worse than death.
Even an ordinary witch, at the cost of extreme emotion and life, can release a curse that even legends will frown upon, and those below legend cannot be exempted at all, so how bold do you have to be to provoke these crazy women to death?
Of course, wild witches are an exception, because they haven’t mastered their own power at all, otherwise how could they be easily captured by a group of villagers to be burned as firewood?
But even so, the curse of a wild witch on her deathbed can still turn a village into a ghost village, otherwise how could those villagers be so afraid of witches, it’s not because there are too many similar folk legends.
With a new idea, Owen decided to start acting.
Green Shade Town also has access to the Floo Network, and Owen holds the Floo Powder.
“Green Shade Town.”
Owen, who plunged headlong into the fireplace, emerged in a flash from the newly built fireplace in the huge tree hollow where he had previously lived.
The tree hollow where the fireplace is located is the center of the whole town, because it was previously used as Owen’s residence, so the goblins specially built a square around this giant tree, after all, this is the Demon Lord’s bedroom, how can ordinary people approach it.
However, after Owen decided to open the Floo Network, he decided to make this a public open space, and his bedroom here would be built elsewhere.
Coming out of the tree hollow, the Goblin General was waiting outside with hundreds of Goblin Shocktroopers.
“You can be on guard, but don’t make it obvious,” Owen said to the Goblin General after glancing at it, frowning.
“Yes, Demon Lord.” The Goblin General immediately understood and immediately waved his hand to let the Goblin Shocktroopers disperse, leaving only a few guards here.
Seeing this, Owen nodded, and then inspected Green Shade Town accompanied by the Goblin General.
Because the goblins had become smarter and more gentle in nature, the town was also better built, and many of the details made him nod his head in approval. It showed care everywhere, and it looked very warm, which made him want to live here for a while, after all, the environment was really good.
The Goblin General, who had been observing his words and expressions, breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the Demon Lord was very satisfied with this, but it felt a little ashamed in its heart.
As a Goblin General, it’s no problem to let it lead troops to fight, even the Goblin Mobile Armored Force that it has never seen before, it can now command battles smoothly, but governance is beyond its capabilities, so the town is all left to the goblins to manage themselves, it doesn’t have much credit.
Owen didn’t know this, and wouldn’t care even if he did. At this time, he was thinking about how to enhance the Goblin General’s strength.
Although those witches are not even half-baked now, once they start learning, their strength will definitely increase rapidly. If there is no one to hold the fort, they will inevitably look down on them and have undesirable thoughts.
Taking note of this, Owen came to a newly built residential area.
Because goblins grow up fast, the construction of the town has never stopped, and this area is prepared for the young goblins, and even has a school, but now it is requisitioned by Owen.
The logging machines had already cleared the trees here and built a large number of buildings. At this time, goblin craftsmen were busy making new furniture and renovating the interior of the houses. After all, these houses were originally prepared for goblins. If they were not modified, they could only be lived in by children.
