Even though she had been prepared in her heart, Dorothy was still a little confused when this familiar yet unfamiliar scenery came into view again.
Isn't this familiar? Almost everything in the city in front of her was built by her personally. Naturally, she is very familiar with it.
As for the unfamiliarity, that's because the city has expanded hundreds of times.
If the city of Pandora she built in Witch Night was once a small fishing village, then the world of Hades is now a bustling international metropolis.
The two are simply not the same in terms of scale.
However, even though it has been expanded countless times, the central area is still familiar to Dorothy. She even saw Adam's little shabby church at a glance.
For a moment, Dorothy really felt as if she had returned to the Witch's Night.
Well, to put it bluntly, I just felt like I was probably dreaming again.
However, she quietly reached out and pinched the brim of the hat on her head. After hearing her senior sister's exclamation, she sighed.
Well, senior sister still knows the pain, it seems it is not a dream.
"To check whether you are dreaming or not, you usually need to pinch yourself. There is no way to pinch others."
Senior Sister Fanny protested like this, then she stretched out her tentacles and slid them all the way to Dorothy's waist, gently tickling the soft flesh of the witch's waist.
Dorothy; "....."
The face under the mask of the house witch suddenly lost its strength and became distorted by the mask.
Damn it, how did the senior know that her weakness was this? Her body is too sensitive and she is indeed a little ticklish. She really can't do that.
】
"Ahem..."
Just when Dorothy was about to fight back, the sound of coughing from the side woke them up. When they turned around, they saw the smiling mask.
Although the mask smiled very gently, the two otaku witches did feel an inexplicable chill. They immediately did not dare to make trouble anymore. The senior sister retracted her tentacles and pretended to be dead, while Dorothy looked at her nose and her eyes.
, as if I was a good boy.
She looked around again and found that this underworld did not feel like the death of the underworld at all. On the contrary, it was surprisingly prosperous.
The gate of the Hell Gate they had just passed through stood above Pandora City, the underworld. Therefore, standing at the door, she could easily overlook this lively and strange world that was not like the underworld.
At first glance, this seems to be a sci-fi future city with extremely advanced technology. There are many high-rise buildings here, with tall buildings hundreds or even thousands of meters high reaching into the sky. You can't even see the top at a glance, and all kinds of cool neon lights are flashing.
, even the clouds and mist surrounding the floors are dyed into colorful clouds, which is beautiful, and the huge display screens hanging below the floating airships that occasionally fly by also play advertisements for various magical technologies.
....
Of course, these are not the point. The point is that all the residents here seem to be robots.
Well, even though each of these bionic robots has been made very lifelike, almost exactly like real people, this cannot escape the eyes of Dorothy, a figure master, who can see at a glance that the residents of Hades below are not human.
Well, it can't be said that they are not human beings. At least their souls are genuine witch souls. It's just that in this underworld that can only accommodate souls but not bodies, the witch souls all live in these mechanical bodies.
middle.
Moreover, even though their bodies are made of steel, the hearts of these witches are still the same. This can be seen from their dressing and traveling habits.
These residents of Hades still wear mage robes, and still ride jet mechanical brooms or magnetic levitation magic carpets when they go out. Some of them are accompanied by various mechanical monster mounts.
It's very retro.
Such a special painting style also seemed a bit novel to Dorothy. She blinked her eyes, looking like a country girl who came to the city for the first time.
And when she is looking at others, others are naturally looking at her.
There are also some idle passers-by in the city below looking up at this hell gate in the sky.
"Ah, what happened? The front door opened instead of the side door today. Could it be that another important person died?"
"Indeed, a few days ago, several frontline leaders were plotted to bring back the enemy, but that didn't even close the main door."
"Then I'm afraid one of the sages died this time. Isn't that the case? Is there a war with natural disasters outside?"
"Shit, that black robe seems to be the Grand Inquisitor of the Tribunal. It should be that Zha Yuzi accidentally died an honorable death when he encountered a ruthless person."
"Oh no, what does the elder's matter have to do with us? It's time to move the bricks. Have you collected the resurrection fee?"
"I still have hundreds of years left in my life. Don't worry, I can always get it together."
"Mom, why are there no military exploits in the underworld? I have been fighting all my life, and now I am asked to do scientific research to earn resurrection fees. How can I do this?"
"Haha, this is Hades, the territory of the Mechanicus, and it is also the base camp for our scientific research on witches. You armed witches are not prosperous enough in the world. There is an old saying in the Eastern Universe. Feng shui takes turns, and it is our scientific research after death.
The Witch Rises.”
"It's so funny. I've actually saved up enough resurrection money to be resurrected one hundred and eighty times, but I don't want to be resurrected at all. This underworld has everything, and everyone here talks nice. I love it here so much."
"Who made you muscular barbarians so arrogant before? Now you are just complaining. If you don't want to do scientific research, then go do hard work. Aren't those undead factories that are open 24 hours a day and 24 hours a day recruiting people every day? You guys
You can go to work there.”
........
The chatter of the residents of Hades below also reached Dorothy's ears, which made the house witch even more stunned.
Good guy, my great scientific research witch has turned over and become the master. Is this just me who was submissive in life and struck hard after death?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the Mechanicus...
Dorothy looked towards the center of Pandora City. On both sides of the familiar Monument of Heroes, two spectacular and majestic buildings stood there.
One is the Holy Palace for offices, and the other is the steel church of the Mechanicum.
If it is said that the Pandora City in the underworld is just a coincidence, the existence of the Mechanicus has basically confirmed the suspicion in the house witch's heart.
Oh my god, I'm afraid this dream didn't come true.
"Welcome to the other world."
Seeing her sister's frightened look, Denisa spoke.
"The other world? Isn't it Hades?"
Dorothy was stunned and asked curiously.
Dinisha shook her head, then stretched out her finger and flicked the forehead of the sister in front of her.
"Life and death are actually concepts that only mortals have. For witches, there is no real death."
Miss Shepherdess said this, then she thought for a while, organized her words a little, and then asked the witch a question.
"Dorothy, do you think there is any difference between sleep and death?"
"this...."
The otaku witch was stunned, and she subconsciously wanted to reply that of course there is a difference, one is alive and the other is dead.
But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back, then frowned and thought for a while, as if she had some realization.
"There seems to be no essential difference."
Dorothy also knew a little bit about the necromancy school. Among many necromancy schools, some people would call sleeping together "little death", and some even directly regarded sleeping together as a sacrifice to death.
Well, literally sleeping together, don’t get me wrong.
In the past, Dorothy actually didn't quite understand why there was such a saying, but now, she understands.
This is life and death.
Every morning when a person wakes up from a dream, it is actually a kind of new life, and when a person falls asleep at night, it is also a kind of death.
In her previous life, Dorothy had heard about a small insect called a mayfly. This insect only has a lifespan of one day, so it lives and dies quickly.
Human beings are much more advanced than mayflies. The life of a mayfly is just a short day for humans. Even though both of them have to go through the same process of life and death, the mayfly is really dead, while the human being is just sleeping, just a small death.
.
What about witches who are much more advanced than humans?
Physical death is an unsolvable problem for humans, but for witches, physical problems have never been a big problem.
The floating true death is just a small death for humans, so is the true death of humans just a small death for witches?
After thinking about this, the otaku witch only felt that her realm of the Necromancer faction seemed to have been sublimated. Perhaps, she was now somewhat sure to pass the intermediate assessment (peak level) of the Necromancer faction.
"It seems you have figured it out."
Dinisha, who had been looking at her sister, nodded happily when she saw her sister like this.
"So this place can't actually be considered Hades. After all, we never really die, we just take a nap. This is the other world, or you can call it dreamland. This is the dreamland of the sleeper."
Miss Shepherdess opened her mouth to introduce her sister.
Then she looked at the hat on her sister's head and sighed.
"Oh, if only some stupid people could be as smart as you, just a little bit more obvious."
Senior Sister Fanny: "..."
Why are you looking at me when you talk about your underworld? Who am I provoking?
Hat-senpai always feels that Teacher Shenwang is targeting her.
Humph, it must be that the intimacy between him and Xibao just now made some old women sore.
When Dorothy heard her good sister sigh, she raised her head and glanced at the hat on her head, and she understood.
Hades is the realm of dreams. It is no wonder that the senior sister can become the fourth king of destiny. The only problem is that this fourth king is not very smart and looks a little bit crooked.
"You have worked hard too."
Looking at Senior Sister Fanny who was still unaware of her problem, Dorothy also sighed, and then said this to the good sister in front of her.
"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway."
Dinisha looked down at the two little ones beside her, then shrugged at her good sister.
However, regarding this, Dorothy did not dare to nod casually, after all, the two little ones were also looking at her at this time.
The house witch was under great pressure. How could Dorothy, who had completely determined who these three were, dare to nod casually?
Fortunately, Dinisha would not embarrass her good sister, so she continued to lead the way.
"Okay, we can't talk any more, it's time to get down to business. After all, the world here has the properties of the underworld. The living should not stay for a long time, otherwise they will easily get lost here. I will take you to meet your little roommate."
There was no need for the otaku witch to speak, but Miss Shepherdess knew very well the purpose of her sister's visit this time.
In fact, all of this happened under her watch. Otherwise, how could my sister suddenly learn "Gates of Hades" just right?
This is Dinisha's exclusive magic specially tailored for her sister.
Originally I just wanted to give it to my sister as a free gift, but unfortunately, this little guy Adi is a bit naughty and always likes to play pranks.
Miss Shepherdess originally wanted to scold the naughty child, but seeing her sister's painful appearance at that time, she actually found it quite interesting.
However, as a good sister, it is really inappropriate for her to deceive her sister like this, so she guided her sister to understand the true meaning of death before.
Well, after all the points have been spent, I can’t let my sister spend them in vain.
As soon as Dorothy heard her good sister's words, she quickly followed her.
However, on the way, she still couldn't hold back and asked.
"My good sister, can you tell me a little bit about why my roommate was not resurrected?"
Dorothy asked worriedly.
Let's talk about it. Actually, she wasn't very worried at first. She just thought that it might be a minor problem such as the Hades system being stuck. She could just wait for the Hades civil servants to fix the bug.
But now the appearance of these three "messengers from Hades" really made her panic.
What's going on? I had a cold and went to the hospital to get checked in. Why did the top three top bosses in the world suddenly come to consult me?
Who wouldn't panic about this kind of thing? The otaku witch really almost wanted to ask Sophiria how many days she had left.
Seeing her sister's worried look, Dinisha glanced at her mouth slightly, but when she thought of the identity of the pure white witch, she sighed again.
Forget it, they are all family members, what can we do, of course, forgive them.
"Her situation is a bit special. You have to know that the underworld system only targets witches for protection, but she does not face death as a witch."
Miss Shepherdess said this.
Dorothy: "..."
Ah this...
The otaku witch was stunned, she really didn't expect this.
While they were talking, everyone had already arrived at their destination.
That is the Holy Palace.
And in the Holy Palace, a pure white figure was processing a massive amount of documents.
"Um, Miss, why are you here?"
Hearing the noise, the figure looked up from Xiao Shangao's papers and saw Dorothy at a glance, and couldn't help but be surprised.
