Chapter 545: Homework from Five Hundred Years Ago

"Lord Joker, what do you mean by that?"

Meredith didn't quite understand. What does it mean that you alone can't do it, but you will win if you add Longshan City? Does this city have anything special?

The bad angel witch lady turned her head to look at the city she had guarded for a period of time, and really didn't feel that there was anything special here.

Although Longshan City could be considered a great city in the Magic Republic, in the eyes of a witch like her, the cities of mere mortals, no matter how big or prosperous, are futile. When facing a truly powerful enemy, everything is meaningless.

And regarding this, Dorothy smiled without saying a word.

It seems that this Angel Witch lady doesn't know much about the city she guards.

"Alright, then follow me."

She didn't explain anything, but took the lead and walked in one direction very skillfully.

Meredith: "????"

No, it seems I am the landlord, and you are the guests, right?

Clearly, this is the territory she guards, but the bad angel witch lady has a feeling that she is the guest.

However, she didn't say much. Who makes the other party the big boss? Whatever the big boss says is right.

Just like that, she, who was a bit confused, led people to follow the group of inquisitors toward the inner city.

"My lord, you seem to be very familiar with this place. Have you been here before?"

On the way, Meredith looked at the clown Grand Inquisitor leading the way, who was exceptionally clear about the route, and finally couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

She had been guarding this city for a year or two, and she wasn't as familiar with the place as the other party, and even knew where the small paths were clearly.

"You could say that."

Dorothy nodded and admitted.

Although she was actually visiting Longshan City for the first time, she was indeed very familiar with it. After all, the initial design drawings of this city came from her hands.

"I didn't expect them to really restore that drawing perfectly."

Following the maze-like alleys in the city, Dorothy looked at everything around her while sighing in her heart.

Although Longshan City had also built new satellite city shelters around it to accommodate the refugees fleeing from the surroundings after the apocalypse, this inner city area was still the same as before, without any changes, standard just like the initial design draft she hand-painted back then.

Finally, after a "random turn", Dorothy stopped.

They had arrived.

But Meredith was stunned because in front of everyone was the end of a small alley, a dead end.

The Home Witch still didn't explain anything. She just gently shouted the familiar password.

"Open Sesame."

Thus, the surroundings began to roar, countless gears engaged, and the sound of chains winding sounded. Then, the wall in front of everyone sank, revealing an open space behind the wall and that steel church.

Is this a Mechanical Sect church?

Looking at this iconic steel church building, the bad angel lady was stunned, but she remembered that the Mechanical Sect church in the city seemed to be in the city center. She really didn't know that there was a second steel church in an unknown corner of the city.

And she didn't expect that there was such a hidden space in the city, which made her think of an urban legend that had been circulating in this city.

It is said that this Longshan City is actually a living city. It will occasionally move its body. People will often find that they wake up from sleep, but their house has moved as a whole, running from the south of the city to the north of the city.

Regarding these urban legends, Meredith naturally didn't believe them. She was very sure that the city under her feet was just a pile of ordinary buildings mixed with steel and building materials, and didn't possess any activity.

But now, looking at the hidden space in front of her, the bad angel witch lady suddenly felt that this city might really have something.

Dorothy didn't pay attention to the surprise of the Angel Witch lady. She just walked straight up and knocked on the church door.

"Keleya, is that you? You actually know how to knock this time."

Soon, an echo came from inside the door, a girl's voice that sounded quite young.

Then the church door opened, and a brown-haired beauty wearing a nun's habit walked out, but seeing this group of people at the door, she was stunned.

"Vivian, long time no see. Although it's a bit late, I still wish you a happy marriage."

Seeing this beautiful young woman who was completely different from the little girl in her memory, Dorothy smiled and said so.

The brown-haired beauty in front of her was none other than Vivian, one of the five original magical girls she had created.

Although those five original magical girls had all gotten married and become magical wives.

Keleya, the captain, married all four of them.

And Vivian first looked at the stranger wearing a clown mask with some doubt, then she thought of something, and hurriedly widened her eyes.

"My lord, it's you. You came, why didn't you notify us in advance so we could welcome you?"

Obviously, the magical beauty had recognized Dorothy's identity, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

*Hmm*, although this child was still quite shy and introverted in Dorothy's memory, always hiding behind Keleya, not daring to see people, but now that she had grown up, she unexpectedly had a gentle wife temperament and was not so afraid of people.

"Alright, Vivian, let's make a long story short. How is the condition of the Longshan? Can it be started and put into use at any time?"

Although she really wanted to chat a few more words with this old friend she hadn't seen for many years, she still had so many people following her, so this was not a good time to reminisce, so she directly cut into the theme.

And hearing her words, Vivian also straightened her face and nodded.

"Of course, the Longshan has always been in a state of combat readiness, waiting for your order to start at any time."

Hearing such an answer, Dorothy also breathed a sigh of relief.

She was actually a bit surprised in her heart. She didn't expect that the idle move she made back then could really succeed.

That's right, the entire Longshan City is actually an unstarted war fortress, Longshan, which is its real name.

Dorothy is a civil engineering witch and also a shipbuilder.

Although even she couldn't create a real witch warship from scratch in the first act where all magic knowledge was sealed, she could barely manage to make a low-profile version of the war fortress design draft of the witch warship.

So she thought about it for a while back then, figured out the design drawings of this Longshan, and recorded them in the planning book left for Di Nisha.

Of course, although she left the design drawings, she didn't expect Di Nisha and the others to really be able to build this war fortress.

After all, although the technical difficulty of this war fortress was far lower than that of a witch warship, it was also a work born from Spider Teacher's war fortress architecture, and Dorothy also simplified and downgraded some witch warship technologies and added them together, such as the land-sinking level main gun technology of the warship.

To be honest, the construction difficulty of Longshan was not something that the people of Pan Duola City at that time could complete. Even if she had already cleared all the technical difficulties, it was like the brain knowing how to do it but the hands not necessarily knowing how. Some things, even if she gave the standard answer, others might not be able to copy it.

Anyway, Dorothy at that time was just holding the attitude of trying and left the design drawings.

And what surprised her a bit was that when the second act opened, she actually saw a Longshan City on the map of the Magic Republic. She curiously asked Di Nisha what was going on and if she helped build it, but the good sister spread her hands, indicating that it had nothing to do with her.

That design drawing was finally handed over to the mechanical monks of the Mechanical Sect by Di Nisha for research, and this Longshan City was the result of the efforts of dozens of generations of people in the Mechanical Sect for more than five hundred years.

They perfectly completed the homework assigned by Dorothy, the first Pope.

Regarding such a result, to be honest, the Home Witch was a bit surprised.

Although if she were to build that design drawing herself, it might take a month or two. This was mainly because the volume of this war fortress was too large, so the engineering volume was a bit large. If she had enough witch-level labor, it might be done within a few weeks.

But the wisdom products of witches are simply incomprehensible artifacts to mortals. How difficult it is to forge artifacts with mortal skills, there is no need to say more.

Anyway, she really didn't expect that the mechanical monks of the Mechanical Sect could really do this.

Regarding this, she only thought of an idiom from her previous life, which is "The Foolish Old Man Moves the Mountains."

The homework she left behind was no less difficult for that group of mechanical monks who were just mortals than moving a mountain. Although the power of individual mortals is small, the descendants are endless. Under the efforts of one generation after another, this mountain was finally conquered.

"Actually, the reason why the Magic Republic can have the current level of technology is all thanks to the drawing you left behind. In the process of building Longshan City, countless novel technologies were created, and some knowledge can be used in other places with a slight transformation."

Di Nisha said so to Dorothy at that time.

It was just that since the beginning of the second act, Dorothy had been busy with other things, and she had never had time to come to this remote great city to see and approve the quality of the homework of her mechanical monk students. Now, the time to grade the homework had finally arrived.

The group followed Vivian into this steel church, but the interior of this church was not like other churches, which was a worship hall, but more like the central command room of a warship.

Especially in the deepest part of the church hall, a throne raised by multiple steps was quietly placed there, waiting for the arrival of its master.

"My lord, please take your seat. Longshan has been waiting for your arrival, and all of our mechanical monks are the same."

Vivian looked up at the high throne with some excitement, and then said respectfully to Dorothy.

The Home Witch didn't have any pretentious politeness. She walked up the steps step by step in the curious eyes of the inquisitors and the puzzled eyes of the Angel Witches, then flicked the inquisitorial cloak behind her and sat on the throne.

Then, several restraint belts protruded from the throne, firmly fixing her body. After that, pipes like tentacles hung down from the top of the throne. The ends of the pipes protruded sharp interface probes, and then these probes directly pierced into the brain-machine interface at the back of the Home Witch's head, realizing the connection with her brain magic equipment.

Thus, the next moment, the entire church hall lit up. Countless virtual screens had endless code flowing rapidly, and there were also some loading pages similar to progress bars loading quickly.

Finally, when everything was calm again, a chorus sound that seemed to fuse countless men, women, old and young voices sounded.

"Holy... Great Mechanical Mentor, please witness."

And at this time, the Home Witch's magic brain was also running rapidly. She soon figured out the operation and performance of this Longshan, and this also brought her a little unexpected surprise again.

"This actually became a wonder building?"

Dorothy was a bit surprised.

The design drawings of Longshan City were drawn by herself, so she knew very well that this war fortress didn't actually have the conditions to become a wonder. This was a mass-producible war weapon.

But wonders sometimes really don't just rely on drawings. The reason why wonder buildings are wonder buildings is partly because of the exquisite nature of the building itself, and partly because of the meaning represented behind these buildings.

If this Longshan City was built entirely by Dorothy herself, then it might really just be a mass-produced weapon. But when it was made by mortals themselves, it was sublimated because of it.

This is the City of Human Wisdom Integration, the City of Human Reason, and also the final fortress protecting humanity—Longshan.

Dorothy connected her thoughts with this fortress city. Her will extended along the city. Everything in this city, and even the history of this city in the past, all emerged in front of her little by little.

She saw the first few mechanical monks coming to this border land from thousands of miles away with that design drawing, saw the birth of this city from scratch, saw more and more people gathering here...

The memories of many cities flowed in her mind. At this moment, Dorothy suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart, and then her inspiration moved.

The next moment, everything she had seen and heard during her trial along the way, the desolate and tragic scenes under the apocalyptic natural disasters, etc., all flashed in her mind, and finally everything turned into a long spell.

"*Ah this*, I haven't fought the Mountain-Carrying Dragon Turtle yet, and it's done?"

Feeling the ancient spell that appeared in her mind, Dorothy was stunned.

However, since she was here, she definitely wouldn't come for nothing. She had already opened the fortress, so she must find a way to fire a shot, so...

"Fortress mode activated, main gun charging started."

She began to give orders calmly.

Thus, in the confusion and terror of the ordinary people outside, this huge city began to deform. The entire city began to roll. Countless exquisite structures were revealed from the ground. They spread out, gathered again, and engaged together.

Finally, the city disappeared, and a steel giant dragon as huge as a mountain stood on the earth.

"*Ah this*..."

In the church, the inquisitors and Angel Witches who witnessed all this widened their eyes, especially Meredith, whose chin almost fell off in shock.

What is all this? Are you sure this is the city I guard? No, does this thing really need me to guard it?

And just when the bad angel witch lady was doubting life, the steel giant dragon opened its mouth, and a dragon breath sprayed directly toward the distance. Then, a shrill wail came from the distance.

Longshan City, wonder effect, damage to enemies of humanity increased by 100%.

So...

Mountain-Carrying Dragon Turtle, *ji* (finished).

... The dragon turtle is shivering in cold... ===== CHAPTER 546 =====
