Chapter 205: After-School Homework

Feisu Chinese.

The High Priestess and Knight Commander were both aware of the witches' auxiliary army system. Therefore, in their minds, after the Moon Rabbit tribe recognized a master, this witch master named Dorothy would simply treat them as an auxiliary army to be ordered around.

And the work of an auxiliary army was nothing more than going to the battlefield to open up territory for the witches.

For those peaceful races, risking their lives on the battlefield might be a kind of torture and they would be very reluctant, but the Moon Rabbits were a war race by nature; going to the battlefield was like returning home.

Oh, considering the apocalypse their home was currently in, the battlefield might be even more intimate and easier to live in than home.

In the Moon Rabbits' original plan, they were going to head to the battlefield to open up a new Moon World. Now, it was just that the battlefield leader had changed from the original Queen to this Moon God; it wasn't a big problem.

Although the feeling of fighting for oneself and fighting for others was definitely different, since this Moon God was the destined person of the Queen in the former King's prophecy, she couldn't be counted as "others," but as one of their own.

Plus, through the recent contact, the two could feel that this witch master wasn't the type with a tyrannical personality; on the contrary, she was quite reasonable. And judging by the power she displayed in performing miracles earlier, she was definitely a powerful witch.

Honestly, following this witch master had much more of a future than following their own unreliable little Queen.

But why is it construction? Is it the construction of building houses that I understand?

Regarding the future Dorothy had just arranged for their tribe, the High Priestess and Knight Commander only felt that their ears must have been hallucinating.

"Mm-hmm, construction. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself to you. I am a research witch with the goal of developing real estate. If you are really willing to follow me, then naturally you will join my construction team, and we will all go do construction together. Otherwise, what else can we do?"

Dorothy patiently explained regarding the astonishment of these two Moon Rabbit big shots.

High Priestess and Knight Commander: "......"

Thinking that they might also have to wear hard hats to supervise at the construction site in the future, they felt they couldn't hold it together. The two turned their heads to look at their little Queen.

And seeing the pained and conflicted expressions of the two elders, Sid Weier was also gloating.

Hehe, you finally experienced what I felt before, right?

At this moment, she nodded under the collapsing gazes of the two elders.

"That's right, I've already bought the construction machines."

High Priestess and Knight Commander: "......"

Ah, this... fine.

Although the positioning suddenly changed from an auxiliary army to a construction team, which caught the two Moon Rabbit big shots off guard, they didn't feel as bad after they regained their composure.

After all, this was just the master's task; it wasn't shameful. And compared to bleeding on the battlefield, the choice of sweating at the construction site was much better; it just wasn't as decent.

Moon Rabbits were a race with strict hierarchies. As elite noble classes, the High Priestess and Knight Commander really hadn't come into contact with things like construction site work. After all, such dirty and tiring work was generally the responsibility of the Moon People below; noble priests and knights wouldn't do it.

So, if anyone had dared to let priests and knights do those lowly jobs in the past, they would definitely have turned hostile, but now...

Sigh, all beings are equal under the apocalypse. The arrogance and glory of the past were not worth mentioning in the face of survival. They, the elite class, had long been smoothed out by hardship.

Just as Dorothy and the others saw earlier, now in the wilderness outside the city, in those construction sites being built, besides the Moon People, Moon Knights and Moon Priests were also working. After all, the harsh environment in the wilderness couldn't be handled by the Moon People alone; some work required the strong like knights and priests to do it themselves.

So, there was nothing to be afraid of anymore. Since it was the new master's request, then they just had to obey.

On the other side, Dorothy sighed as she looked at the conflicted expressions of the two Moon Rabbit big sisters.

Even without using mind-reading, she could guess the thoughts of these people.

Sigh, why do one or two of you look down on me, a construction worker? Why should my construction work be inferior? Do you know what "labor is the most glorious" means? Your group's outdated thinking needs to be corrected.

Dorothy also understood the Moon Rabbits' conflict. As a war race, the social atmosphere of the Moon Rabbits was quite similar to that of the witches; they were all of the type where military service was the most glorious, the battlefield was where successful people should go, and only by making contributions on the battlefield could one reach the pinnacle of life.

As for other industries, they were just logistics departments responsible for supporting the battlefield; those were places where the not-good-enough weaklings and the eliminated would go.

In short, industry discrimination was severe.

So Dorothy asking the Moon Rabbits to go to the construction team to do construction was simply equivalent to telling the parents of students in her previous life, "Don't let your children go to school, come with me to the factory to tighten screws." This was a typical case of not attending to one's proper duties and wanting to lead others astray.

Although due to their status, the High Priestess and Knight Commander would eventually agree to her, such a forced melon might quench thirst, but it wouldn't be sweet. Dorothy felt it was necessary to give them a lesson and reverse their thinking.

"Now, two sisters, what do you think of my means of reshaping the world outside just now?"

The Home Witch sat up straight from the sofa and asked.

"Naturally, it was breathtaking, like a miracle."

Regarding this, the High Priestess answered without hesitation.

"Mm-hmm, like a miracle."

The Knight Commander continued to be her repeater, following her wife's lead.

However, these words weren't flattery for this witch master, but from the heart.

The two of them were top powerhouses of the Moon Rabbit tribe. In terms of strength, they weren't much worse than the top Grand Witches of the Witch World. But even so, they still couldn't do something as outrageous as reshaping the world.

Firstly, because the Moon Rabbits' source of power was Moon Magic, a second-generation magic evolved from primordial magic. This power might not be much weaker than the witches' primordial magic in other aspects, but it lost the versatility of being a creation force.

Primordial magic was a power only mastered by the Golden Calamity races; their power could be versatile. As a Silver race, the Moon Rabbits' Moon Magic was ultimately just a powerful force.

Secondly, the knowledge required for creation was too miscellaneous; this really wasn't something an individual could master.

Actually, the Moon Rabbits also had means of creation, such as high-end magic technology like the Star Creation Instrument. It's just that this high-end technology had always been in the hands of the royal family and other major Moon Rabbit clans, and it was impossible for small tribes like theirs to master such core technology.

When they were young, the High Priestess and Knight Commander had followed the previous Queen to study in those major clans. At that time, many major clans had issued invitations to the three, promising to teach them these high-end skills, but the premise was that the three had to leave their tribe and join them.

Regarding this, the three eventually refused.

Sigh, in this world, the most expensive and precious thing is knowledge. Not all races are like the witches who open higher knowledge to the entire tribe.

The witches' Mana Web Grand Library was something that other races had envied for a long time. Although not all knowledge in the Grand Library was for sale—for example, personal secret techniques could be temporarily hidden—there were no high-level, easy-to-use secret techniques, but there were public versions of spells with the same effect. As long as you had points, you could exchange for them, which was already a good thing that made others envious.

And even for secret techniques, they weren't hidden forever. All hiding had a time limit. Once expired, they would become public. Although this actually meant that this spell might already be outdated, it was still much better than other races having nowhere to learn such outdated spells.

So, if you only looked at magic power, the High Priestess and Knight Commander could rival top Grand Witches, but if they really fought, a top Grand Witch could probably beat the two of them combined with one hand.

After all, their way of becoming stronger could only rely on their own exploration, which couldn't compare to the witches who had a big tree to lean on. The gap in spells between the two sides might not be much smaller than the equipment gap between primitive people and modern people. Heaven knows how many versions behind they were.

Sigh, otherwise there wouldn't be so many different races wanting to be dogs for witches every day. Any knowledge that flowed out of the witches' hands might be more of an improvement than what the different races could figure out on their own in decades.

Thinking of this, both the High Priestess and Knight Commander had undisguisable envy in their eyes. Ask anyone in the entire Western Universe who doesn't covet the witches' knowledge? Even the other three calamities covet it.

And the knowledge and techniques displayed by this witch master when reshaping the world earlier were mostly incomprehensible even to the learned High Priestess.

As for the Knight Commander, as a martial artist, to be honest, she had been coveting the witches' combat techniques for who knows how long.

"Then if I say that what I just displayed is actually the witches' civil engineering technology, do you believe it?"

Seeing the Moon Rabbits' envious expressions, Dorothy decisively started painting a picture.

Beside her, Miya, Audrey, and Alice heard this and looked at her in unison, each wanting to say something but stopping.

Really, the three of them couldn't listen to this anymore. How did they not know that civil engineering was already this terrifying?

But after thinking carefully, they were astonished to find that it seemed to be the case. After all, Dorothy was a freshman in civil engineering, and the knowledge she created theoretically belonged to civil engineering technology. This was correct...

Tsk, it can only be said that this person raised the threshold of the entire witch civil engineering by herself. Other civil engineering witches were already crying in the toilet.

It's just that the three witches knew this clearly, but it didn't mean the Moon Rabbits knew it. Hearing Dorothy fool them like this, the High Priestess and Knight Commander were directly stunned.

"You witches call creation civil engineering? Do you have some misunderstanding about civil engineering?"

The two Moon Rabbit big shots looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

"Then do the two sisters still find construction hard to accept? Please believe me, this is really a profession with a bright future. What awaits us in the future must be a blue ocean."

The Home Witch continued to paint the picture.

Ahem, the construction worker thing can't be called painting a picture; this is stating facts. She really didn't say a single lie.

And the High Priestess and Knight Commander were actually fooled by Dorothy to the point of being lost. These two Moon Rabbit big shots were also old and cunning people who could see through others' lies at a glance, but they didn't feel the aura of lies from the witch in front of them.

So, was construction really such a great profession? That was creating the world; wasn't that much more powerful than fighting on the battlefield for half a day?

For a moment, their hearts were shaken.

Regarding this, Sid Weier, who was eating melons and watching the show on the side, looked at the two elders who were almost completely hooked and sighed in her heart.

Moon Rabbit lady looked up at the ceiling of the palace and thought of her Queen mother.

Mom, I have to say your prophecy is really powerful; this King is indeed an incredible big liar.

Usually, Sid Weier heard these two elders scolding her for being silly, stupid, etc., but now...

Hehe, you are smart, but you are still being fooled, right? You aren't much smarter than me.

Holding this gloating thought, the Moon Rabbit lady continued to eat melons and watch the show.

On the other side, seeing that the bait was effective and the fish were about to be hooked, Dorothy hurriedly delivered the final blow.

"Then are the two sisters willing to learn civil engineering with me now? If you are willing, we can discuss the training matters next?"

"Training? What do you mean?"

Hearing the subtext in Dorothy's words, the High Priestess and Knight Commander suddenly became excited.

Although this witch master just said a lot of flowery words and blew the witches' civil engineering to be so divine, the two didn't have any other thoughts besides sighing. After all, no matter how powerful the witches' civil engineering was, what did it have to do with them, the Moon Rabbits? You wouldn't teach us anyway.

But such thoughts just flashed by, and Dorothy's bait was thrown out. This directly hit the itchy spot of these two Moon Rabbit big sisters, making them unable to control themselves anymore, directly breaking their defenses, and then falling into the Home Witch's rhythm.

Thinking that they also had the opportunity to learn the creation power that was like a miracle just now, the High Priestess and Knight Commander turned and threw away all the elite dignity and noble glory.

Isn't it just construction? Do it, they can all do it. They can even lead people to do it themselves; they love construction the most.

At this point, seeing that the fish had finally taken the bait, Dorothy revealed a smile. She wasn't in a hurry to answer.

She just stood up, walked to the window of the reception room, and looked at the scenery outside.

The sky of the Royal City at this moment was clearly divided into two parts: one half was the direction she came from, sunny and clear; the other half was the world she hadn't reshaped yet, covered in dark clouds and lifeless.

"When I reshaped the world just now, I understood a truth: individual power has limits. Even if I am powerful, my power is limited. Relying on myself alone cannot save your world, so..."

"Do you want to come together? I think it's better for you to save your own homeland yourselves. If you really want to learn construction from me, then this is your after-school homework. I wonder if the two sisters will find it too difficult?"

She turned back, pointed to the lifeless apocalyptic scene in the distance, and asked.
