Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 105 The Witch's Loyalty

"It seems that in addition to a sum of money, you also need some thugs to do black work, so as to speed up development." Owen understood Maya's meaning, because she also proposed a backup plan, which is to buy the local gangsters.

But there are risks in buying. After all, you can sacrifice your life for you or others, and it depends on who benefits you the most.

"No, I suggest that Knight Howard go to the small town to buy the farm in Emile's hands, completely cover up the traces of the Northland Witch Union, and then buy and reorganize those fragmented industries in the name of Knight Howard. As for the gangsters, they are just the outermost part of the organization. , used to solve a little trouble, and can be discarded at any time."

Maya's words made Owen understand the gap in vision between the two sides, but he has long been used to it, otherwise why would he leave the territory and the Witch Union to her.

Without further ado, Owen called Howard and asked Maya to explain the matter.

After listening, Howard agreed without much consideration, because it was not difficult for him, and many of his colleagues were buying properties in border towns.

In fact, if he hadn't met Cullens, Howard would have chosen to find a place to buy an estate, so that he could leave it to his son in the future, so it was not difficult.

However, as Maya narrated, Howard's expression became serious, and he calculated which places needed attention, and those places needed the help of previous connections.

Howard didn't think there was anything wrong with Owen's plan to build an intelligence network on the border of the empire. Even if he was asked to lead troops to attack the town of Ferrier, he would agree without hesitation, because the courtiers of the emperor's courtiers were not the emperor's courtiers.

Since coming to the territory, Howard's allegiance is to Owen, not the emperor, let alone the empire, so not only did he not hesitate about this matter, but he felt that he was valued and became more attentive.

Handing over the patrolling of the territory to Hogg, Howard put on a decent armor, rode a steed, brought three to five servants and ten long swordsmen, and came to Emile's farm through the Floo network. There is no need for Owen to ask about the things that come down.

Things are handled by Maya, but Owen is not idle.

Although Maya's ability is strong, she didn't open it, so when faced with some difficult problems, she should either avoid the difficult point, or think of other ways, because head-on can't solve the problem.

But Owen is different, he cheats, and the problems that Maya cannot solve are not the case for him, which is why he is not worried about being ostracized even though he is delegating power now.

In the early days, she was flustered and short of breath and was afraid of Maya all day long, because she lacked confidence.

If a man with a monthly salary of [-] yuan looks after the front door of a community and has a woman who is an executive in a foreign company, it is normal to be suspicious in a low voice, because the money does not match, the power does not match, and it is impossible to talk about living well.

Now that the development of the territory is getting better and better, and Maya has more and more rights, Owen is not so worried. It is precisely because he has finally found his own position. He is irreplaceable. Dale's ancestral pestle Will not work.

If you have enough confidence, you will naturally stop thinking about it.

Feeling at ease and leaving everything to Gaimaya, Owen came to the secret room of the dungeon and began to study how to play the role of those adult witches.

Although the system is good, the progress value is always stuck, making it difficult for Owen to enjoy himself. In order to maximize the value of the progress value, he has been making various attempts, and Shire is the most successful example.

From a maid who knows some fighting skills to a fierce girl who is as close to the enemy as the Teutonic warriors, the progress value is very little, and her potential is more than that.

It's a pity that there is only one Shire, and it is very difficult to copy it, otherwise Owen would really dare to venture into the empire.

Although it was difficult, Owen still chose to continue his research, and those witches were the best targets.

"The opportunity to change your destiny is right in front of you, and it's up to you to decide whether you want to." Owen came to the green town and called the witches who had a new look but were still ugly.

If it was before, these witches would only be silent, but after living in the green town for this period of time, they are completely unable to give up everything now and return to the farm.

So they looked at each other, and they jointly made the witch oath, which was the only bargaining chip they could give now.

The witch's oath is a different kind of curse. It curses itself with its own magic power. Therefore, not only is the binding force over the top, but it cannot be lifted on its own. Therefore, no witch will swear the witch's oath unless it is absolutely necessary.

But for these witches, this is the only bargaining chip they can get now, and they are afraid that Owen will look down on them, because they have neither beauty nor strength, and even they themselves don't know what else can be used by the other party. fancy.

"You will find out what a correct choice you made." Owen said with a little deep meaning, because he already had a lot of ideas about these witches.

Pick one of the oldest witches and go to the dungeon secret room in the castle through the Floo network.

"Go in." Owen pointed to the synthesis furnace and said to the witch.

Because the secret room in the dungeon didn't look gloomy, nor did it smell of blood, but rather warm, so the witch wasn't too nervous, and obediently walked into that strange little room.

The synthesis furnace is now being used by Owen's on-site nuclear magnetic resonance, and with the knowledge about witches he got from Emile, he has initially figured out some problems about witches.

Regardless of whether a warlock with a dominant bloodline or a witch with a recessive bloodline, after reaching a certain age, magic power will be produced autonomously. Just like the endocrine changes in adolescence, it is an inevitable stage of physical growth.

It's just that the magic power of a warlock is more active, even without any learning, it can be released in an emotional state, so there is not much pressure, just like regular hand punching helps healthy growth.

But witches can't. Their magic power is more restrained. Even after learning, they still need a medium to cast spells better. Simply speaking, relying on hands is useless.

If the conditional witches are fine, they are taught, but the wild witches who are not taught can only resign themselves to their fate, allowing the magic power generated in the body to accumulate, and then oppress the body and spirit, causing the mood to become worse and become It is easier to go to extremes.

This kind of emotion will also affect the magic power and indirectly cause distortion to oneself, which is why most of the wild witches are ugly and have physical defects.

And this distortion is irreversible. After all, it is distorted during the growth period, and when the adult body is finalized, it will definitely not be reversed.

Witches are also helpless about this. After all, this kind of situation is not only encountered by untrained wild witches. Many times, a violent mood swing in adolescence will affect the body, and this will increase tension and resentment, causing many girls. Witches have physical defects.

Like Emile, she doesn't have limb deformities or body distortions. The problem is that her body shape can't be said to be all right, so witches invented a lot of potions and magic.

It's a pity that most of the recovery effects are temporary, and there are only a few permanent methods, and the price is not affordable for ordinary witches.
