house witch

Chapter 588 587. Sleep and Death

"This is Hades?"

Even though she had been prepared in her heart, Dorothy was still a little dazed when the familiar and unfamiliar scenery came into view again.

Can this be unfamiliar?Almost everything in the city in front of her was built by her herself, and she was naturally familiar with it.

As for the strangeness, that's because the city has expanded hundreds of times.

If the city of Pandora she built in Witch's Night was a small fishing village, then the world of Hades is now a bustling international metropolis.

The two are not comparable in scale at all.

However, even though it has been expanded countless times, the most central area is still familiar to Dorothy. She even saw Adam's little dilapidated church at a glance.

For a moment, Dorothy really felt as if she had returned to the Witch's Night again.

Well, to put it bluntly, I just feel that I am afraid that I am dreaming again.

However, she quietly reached out and pinched the brim of the hat on top of her head. After hearing the exclamation of the senior sister, she sighed.

Well, the senior sister still knows the pain, it seems that it is not a dream.

"Verifying whether to dream or not is usually to pinch yourself, how can you pinch others."

Sister Fanny protested like this, and then she stretched out her tentacles, slid all the way to Dorothy's waist, and gently scratched the soft flesh of the house witch's waist.

Dorothy; "."

The face under the house witch's mask suddenly lost its tension, and the mask became distorted.

Damn, how did the senior know that her weakness is this, she is really ticklish with her body too sensitive, it really can't be done there.

"Cough cough."

Just when Dorothy was about to fight back, the sound of coughing from the side woke them up, and when they turned around, they saw the smiling mask.

Although the mask smiled very gently, the house witch and the house witch really felt an inexplicable chill, and they didn't dare to fight any more. , I look very good.

She probed her head and looked around again, and found that the Underworld didn't have the sense of death and silence of the underworld at all, on the contrary, it was surprisingly prosperous.

The gate of the gate of hell they just passed through stands above the city of Pandora, the underworld. Therefore, standing at the gate, she can easily overlook this lively and strange world that does not look 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, and the high-rise buildings that are hundreds or even thousands of meters straight into the sky at every turn. You can’t see the top at a glance, and all kinds of cool neon lights are flashing. , and even dyed the clouds and mists surrounding the floors into colorful clouds, which is beautiful, and the huge display screens hanging under the floating airships that occasionally fly by also play various advertisements of magical technologies and so on. .
Of course, these are not the point, the point is that the residents here seem to be all robots.

Well, even if each of these bionic robots has been made very realistic, almost like a real person, but this cannot escape the eyes of Dorothy, a figure master, who can see right away that all the residents of the Hades below are not human.

Well, it can’t be said that they are not human, at least their souls are genuine witch souls, but in this underworld that can only accommodate souls but not physical 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, which can be seen from their dressing and travel habits.

These underworld residents still wear mage robes, and they still ride jet mechanical brooms or magnetic levitation magic carpets when they go out. Some of them are accompanied by various mechanical monster mounts.

Just very retro.

Such a special style of painting also made Dorothy a bit novel. She blinked her eyes, looking like a country girl entering the city for the first time.

And she is looking at others, and others are naturally looking at her.

In the city below, there are also some idle passers-by looking up at this heavenly ghost gate.

"Ah, what happened? The main door was not the side door that opened today. Could it be that some other important person passed away?"

"Indeed, several peaks on the front line were conspired to hang back a few days ago, and that didn't make the gate of hell close."

"Then I'm afraid it's not a sage who died this time, it's not going to happen, is there a war with natural disasters outside?"

"Fart, that black robe seems to be the chief judge of the Tribunal. This should be an honorable sacrifice when he encountered a ruthless person during the investigation of the case."

"Look at that, what does the boss'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 of Yinshou, don't worry, I can always get it together."

"Damn, why is there no military exploits in this underworld? I have fought all my life, but now I am asked to do scientific research to earn resurrection fees. How can I do this?"

"Hehe, this is the underworld, the territory of the Mechanicus, and also the base camp for our scientific research on witches. You armed witches are not good enough in Yangjian. There is an old saying in the Eastern Universe, Feng Shui takes turns. After death, we should do scientific research. The witch rises."

"Laughing, my resurrection fee is actually enough to resurrect a hundred and eighty times, but I don't want to be resurrected at all. This Hades has everything, and everyone here speaks nicely. I love this place so much."

"Who made you muscular savages so arrogant before? Now it's just a complaint. If you don't want to do scientific research, then go to work as a coolie. Don't those undead factories that are open 24 hours a day recruit people every day? You can Go to work there."

The chatter of the residents of the underworld below also reached Dorothy's ears, which made the house witch even more stunned.

Good guy, my great scientific research witch turned over and became the master. Could it be that she was submissive in life and punched hard after death?
However, Mechanics.
Dorothy looked at the center of Pandora City. On both sides of the familiar Monument of Heroes, two magnificent and majestic buildings stood there.

One is the holy palace for offices, and the other is the steel cathedral of Mechanicism.

If the city of Pandora in the underworld might be just a coincidence, the existence of the Mechanicus has basically confirmed the speculation in the house witch's heart.

Damn, I'm afraid it's not a dream come true.

"Welcome to the other world."

Seeing that her younger sister seemed to be frightened, Denisa spoke.

"The inner world? Isn't it Hades?"

Dorothy was taken aback for a moment, and asked curiously.

And Denisa shook her head, then stretched out her fingers and flicked the forehead of her sister in front of her.

"Life and death are actually concepts that only mortals have. For witches, there is no real death."

The shepherdess said so, and then she thought about it, organized her language a little, and then asked the house witch a question.

"Dorothy, do you think there is any difference between sleep and death?"

"This"

The house witch was taken aback for a moment, she subconsciously wanted to answer that there was of course a difference, one was alive and the other was dead.

But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them again, then frowned and thought for a while, as if she had realized something.

"It seems that there is really no essential difference."

Dorothy also knew a little bit about the Necromancer School. In many Necromantic Schools, some people would call sleeping a "little death", and some schools even directly regarded sleeping together as a sacrifice to death.

Well, literally sleeping together, don't get me wrong.

In the past, Dorothy didn't really understand why there was such a saying, but now, she understood.

This is life and death.

Waking up from a dream every morning is actually a new life, and falling asleep at night is also a kind of death.

In her previous life, Dorothy had heard that there was a kind of insect called mayfly. This kind of insect only lived for one day, so it lived and died overnight.

And human beings are much more advanced than mayflies. The life of mayflies is just a short day for humans. Even though both of them actually have to go through the same process of life and death, but mayflies are really dead, while humans are just sleeping, just a small death. .

So 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 considered a big problem.

The floating true death is just a small death for human beings, so is the true death of human beings just a small death for witches?

After understanding this point, the house witch only felt that her realm of the undead faction seemed to have been sublimated. Perhaps, she was now a little confident to pass the intermediate assessment (peak level) of the undead faction.

"It seems that you have figured it out."

Denisa, who had been keeping her eyes on her sister, nodded in relief when she saw her like this.

"So this place can't be regarded as Hades. After all, we never really died, we just took a nap. This is the other world, or you can call it the dreamland. This is the dreamland of the sleepers."

The shepherdess introduced her sister.

Then she looked again at the hat on her sister's head, and sighed.

"Well, if only some stupid things could be as smart as you, it would be nice to see through a little bit."

Senior Sister Fanny: "."

You talk about your underworld, why are you looking at me?Who am I provoking?

Sister Hat always felt that Teacher Shenwang was targeting her.

Hmph, the intimacy with Xi Bao must have made some old women sour.

But hearing her good sister's sigh, Dorothy also looked up at the hat on her head, and she knew it.

The underworld is a dreamland, so it's no wonder that 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."

Seeing Senior Fanny who still didn't realize her problem, Dorothy also sighed, and then said this to the good sister in front of her.

"It's okay, I'm used to it anyway."

Denisa looked down at the two cubs beside her, then shrugged her shoulders at her good sister.

However, regarding this, Dorothy did not dare to nod casually, after all, the two little cats were also looking at her at this time.

The house witch was under a lot of pressure, and Dorothy, who was completely sure who these three were at this time, dared to nod casually.

Fortunately, Denisa would not embarrass her good sister, so she continued to lead the way.

"Okay, I can't talk anymore, it's time to get down to business. After all, this world has the attributes of the underworld. The living should not stay for a long time, otherwise it will be easy to get lost here. Let me take you to meet your little roommate."

It didn't take the house witch to speak, the shepherdess knew very well the purpose of her sister's visit this time.

In fact, all of this happened under her watchful eyes, otherwise, how could my younger sister have learned the "Gate of Hades" suddenly and just right?

This is the exclusive magic that Denisa tailor-made for her younger sister.

Originally, I just wanted to give it to my sister for free as a gift, but it's a pity that the little guy Artie is a bit naughty and always likes to play some pranks.

Miss Shepherdess originally wanted to scold that brat, but seeing her younger sister's sore face at that time, she found it quite amusing.

However, as a good sister, it is really wrong to cheat her sister so much, that's why she guided her sister to understand the true meaning of death.

Well, after all, all the points are spent, so I can't let my sister spend them in vain.

As soon as Dorothy heard what her good sister said, she hurriedly 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 didn't come back to life?"

Dorothy asked with some concern.

There is one thing to say, in fact, she was not very worried at first, she just thought that it might be a minor situation such as the system of the underworld, and it might be fine to wait for the civil servants of the underworld to fix the bug.

But now the appearance of these three "Envoys of Hades" really made her panic.

What's the situation? I just had a cold and went to the hospital to make an appointment. Why did the world's top three big bosses come together to consult me?
Who can not panic if this kind of thing is left, the house witch really almost wanted to ask Sophilia directly how many days are left.

Seeing her sister's worried look, Denisa glanced at her mouth slightly, but when she thought of the identity of that pure white witch, she sighed again.

Forget it, they are all from my own family, what else can I do, of course I forgive them.

"Her situation is a bit special. You have to know that the underworld system's asylum targets are only for witches, but she didn't meet death as a witch."

Miss Shepherdess spoke like this.

Dorothy: "."

Ah this
The house witch was taken aback, she really didn't expect this.

While speaking, everyone had already arrived at their destination.

That is the holy palace.

And in the holy palace, a pure white figure was processing a huge amount of documents.

"Uh, miss, why are you here?"

Hearing the movement, the figure raised his head from Xiao Shangao's file, and saw Dorothy at a glance, and couldn't help being very surprised.

The White Witch was surprised.
