"Wow, it's the Young Lady. Why did she come? Quickly be on guard."

"Sister, is it necessary? She's just one person. Although her reputation is indeed loud, can our Round Table Knights be afraid of her? She doesn't have the ability to raid our home."

"Hmm, hmm, and I actually quite like the Young Lady. She is also a Dragon Witch, our compatriot. No need for this, right?"

"No need my ass. Two days ago, the No. 8 mountain of the Long Ming Arena was cut by her with one knife. Who knows if she will have a stroke and dismantle our station with one knife? In short, be on guard."

"Uh, I heard that the No. 8 Arena is already being rebuilt. I heard it was rebuilt by the association under the Young Lady."

"Isn't this even more terrifying? Who does civil engineering work like this? She looks like a repeat offender. She even consciously established a cleanup association. Is she brushing for performance there?"

"Oh, oh, that's right."

Along the way, although the whispering of the knight witches was very small, it still couldn't escape Dorothy's ears. Who let her be a high-inspiration witch? And the content these guys were chatting about made the Home Witch hard.

Her fists and sword were both hard.

Slander, be careful I sue you for slander. Who is brushing for performance? I am operating completely legally, okay? And my main business is civil engineering witch, okay? It's not some side business.

Although Dorothy had long known that her reputation was a bit crooked, she didn't want this kind of deterrent power. It was almost like being treated as a dangerous person or a disaster star wherever she went.

Fortunately, although she was guarded, no one really came up to block the way or find trouble. The knight witches just silently strengthened their guard and directly entered a combat-ready state, looking like they were ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

Just like this, Dorothy walked into this heavily guarded station with a complex mood.

"You are the representatives of Star Industry, right? Please follow me."

As soon as she entered the door, a knight witch wearing heavy combat armor, even with a helmet on her head, seemed to have been waiting for a long time. She greeted everyone and asked.

Although this heavy-armored knight looked very tall and strong, standing nearly four meters tall with her armor, she looked like a little giant, but the voice coming from the armor was unexpectedly a bit soft and cute.

Hmm, quite sweet. Just listening to the voice, one would think it was a sweet girl. It was really unexpected that she was actually such a strong man.

Perhaps, this is contrast.

Everyone followed this contrast knight and continued forward, finally being brought to a council hall.

The heavy-armored knight opened the door for them. The first thing that caught their eyes was a huge round table, looking like a replica of the sacred round table seen outside before.

Although it was much smaller than the original, it was enough to seat nearly a hundred people.

And at this time, more than half of this round table was already full.

As soon as Dorothy and the others entered the door, everyone at the table turned to look at them. Taking this opportunity, Dorothy was also looking at these witches.

"There are quite a few old acquaintances here."

She thought this way in her heart.

She saw many familiar faces at a glance, such as the Thunder Roar Dragon Witch Ostana of Narukami, Miss Faifaifa of Dead Wing, Miss Celine of Red Eye, etc.

Hmm, many were customers who had purchased the Forest Witch's magic spell customization service from her not long ago.

This was also normal. Although these battle groups were big, peak big shots were still relatively rare. These few were originally the external persons in charge of each battle group, so it was normal for them to attend today's meeting.

However, these big shots didn't come alone today. Beside them were some other people. They should be some relevant persons in charge of the four major warship workshops.

Dorothy was also quite unfamiliar with these people and swept past them. However, her gaze paused slightly when passing by the Dead Wing battle group's personnel.

Uh, meeting again, the ultimate weapon girl.

Dorothy didn't expect to see this Miss Nibelungen at this warship mobilization meeting today. She should belong to... why did she come to attend this kind of meeting? Was she here as security personnel?

Dorothy thought this way in her heart.

"Everyone, please come this way."

The heavy-armored knight lady led the way in front once again, bringing the Home Witch and the others to a corner of the round table and arranging their seats.

Dorothy originally didn't feel anything about this. She thought these seats should be arranged according to first-come, first-served, but after they were seated, the Home Witch keenly discovered that many people were looking at them with surprised eyes, occasionally lowering their heads to communicate in low voices, and then showing surprised, astonished expressions.

"Uh, is there any particularity here?"

The Home Witch was a bit puzzled, but after she looked at the order of the seats carefully again, she frowned slightly.

"Hexagram?"

She discovered that if the round table was taken as the boundary, their seats and those of the other four major workshops formed a hexagram pattern.

As for why the five major forces formed a hexagram, it was because Dorothy and the others were sitting at the bottom corner of the hexagram, while the seat at the very top corresponding to them was still vacant, with no one seated.

That position was the main seat, and it looked like it was for the host of this meeting, Lord Arthur.

"It seems this should be arranged according to the five major workshops."

Dorothy thought this way in her heart.

Although their Star Industry was a newly built warship workshop, they had inherited the warship construction qualification of the Ye Meng Jia De family, which naturally inherited the status of the Ye Meng Jia De family as one of the five major warship workshops in the past.

Hmm, do you understand the gold content of royal relatives and noble blood families? This is called nobility.

Of course, Dorothy felt that this noble bloodline was just a superficial reason. This was the Dragon Kingdom, and everything had to start from strength in the end. Without strength, no matter how noble you were, you would still decline, just like the Ye Meng Jia De family before.

And the reason why Star Industry could inherit the status of the five major workshops probably had to be because the Destruction Legion under Long Ma had truly regained its past glory.

Although the background of the newborn Destruction Legion might be below the other four major battle groups, it had already entered the ranks of top battle groups, which was not comparable to other small workshops.

Dorothy also looked at other participating witches besides these hexagram seats and found that whether it was momentum or strength, they were much weaker than the big shots of the four major workshops. They should be representatives of some small workshops in the Dragon Kingdom, or representatives stationed in the Dragon Kingdom by some large workshops in other countries.

Oh, except for their own corner.

After all, among the participants of Star Industry, except for Auntie Sid Weier who was a real big shot, the remaining three were too young.

Hmm, it is worth mentioning that Dorothy had been frantically fed by her ancestors these past few days and finally ate the last 10,000 Total Mana of magic power. She finally became a Great Witch with 300,000 Total Mana, which was truly gratifying.

Turn off the lights to protect your eyes: Small, Medium, Large

Although this was still useless, after all, the weakest among the other participants at the table were titled Great Witches.

This was normal. Those who could engage in warship workshops were not weaklings. This kind of high-precision and high-profit industry was not something that weaklings could touch.

Anyway, Dorothy, Sophie Liya, and Senior Miya were really out of place among this group of big shots.

Of course, the Pure White Witch and the Golden Princess were better. After all, the Home Witch was not a person who ate alone. While she was frantically supplementing, her sisters were also supplementing together. Although those ingredients were mainly suitable for her and the effect was reduced a lot for her sisters who were already Great Witches, her sisters were originally geniuses with excellent magic talent. This supplement plus natural growth, their strength was truly advancing by leaps and bounds.

Now, the magic power of Sophie Liya and Senior Miya had broken through the 400,000 Total Mana mark, entering the ranks of senior Great Witches, and could no longer be considered weaklings.

As for the Home Witch herself...

Forget it, her magic power didn't matter. After all, the famous Young Lady was sitting here, who dared not give her face? Who wasn't afraid of being raided and exterminated? Even the few peak big shots at the table had to greet her politely.

Dorothy looked at a few unfamiliar witches not far from their seats. These few were not weak in strength. The leader was actually a peak witch, and the others were also titled Great Witches. The participating lineup was the level of a large workshop.

It was just that they could only sit at the end of the table now, and in the end, they didn't have the qualification to enter the hexagram seats.

The Home Witch's inspiration felt hostility and resentment from these few.

"Na na, Sophie Liya, Senior Miya, Auntie Sid Weier, what's the situation with those few over there?"

Dorothy secretly transmitted to her sisters and asked.

And hearing the transmission, the few also looked at that side along Dorothy's gaze.

"That is the Black Scale Workshop, which can be considered a warship workshop that has risen in the Dragon Kingdom in the past thousand years. Their strength is quite good, and the Black Scale battle group behind them can also rank in the top 100, and their warship technology is also good. They have vaguely become the fifth largest workshop in the Dragon Kingdom."

Senior Miya answered first.

As a merchant, she was naturally well-informed and recognized the origin of the few over there at a glance.

Dorothy then understood.

Good heavens, no wonder there was resentment toward them. If Long Ma hadn't regained the warship construction qualification and Star Industry hadn't come to participate, then the hexagram seat under their butts might have been theirs.

Being air-dropped and snatched by someone, it would be strange if they could give a good face.

And they were indeed powerful, not afraid of this Young Lady's notoriety.

"Young Lady, the Black Scale Workshop was the one that bought the Destruction Armor technology from the family back then. Their Black Scale name also comes from this."

Sophie Liya also added.

Dorothy understood even more.

They were truly wanting to impact the name of the five major workshops, but their arrival was a bit of a "clash." This was indeed quite awkward.

Of course, when it comes to wearing the same outfit, usually the weaker one is the one who feels awkward, but the problem here is that this instance counts as a pirated version meeting the original. Even if the Black Scale Workshop bought the technology for the Ruin Armor, they cannot claim that what they built is the Ruin Armor. After all, the serial number for the Ruin belongs to the Ye Meng Jia De family. That spendthrift ancestor back then only sold the technology; they weren't so spendthrift as to sell the ancestral serial number as well.

Therefore, even if it was the same technology, the Black Scale Workshop could only call their own armor technology Black Scale Armor.

In short, it was truly their own group blocking someone else's way.

"They, don't worry about them, just a bunch of clowns. The gold master behind them is not from the Dragon Kingdom, but a spy sent from the Demon Kingdom."

Finally, Auntie Sid Weier said with some disdain.

As a great senior, and also a high-ranking elder of the Golden City, you can doubt her business ability, but you can't deny her knowledge.

Having an old person at home is like having a treasure.

Her opening was a secret that Sophie Liya and Senior Miya didn't know.

"Uh, this also brings spies."

Dorothy was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and could understand.

After all, the Witch World had never been an iron bucket.

It was because of the power of the Three Kings that the world was forcibly unified, and no one dared not to obey. But if there were no Three Kings pressing down, you would see if the major witch territories under this broken lord system would fight each other to the death.

You can never expect humans to always work together without external pressure, so naturally, you can't have too beautiful fantasies about witches who also have a human heart.

Although the reality was the suppression of the Three Kings and the Sage Council, so large-scale civil war between witches was basically impossible to fight, but not fighting civil war didn't mean not fighting internally.

Even several companies in a country have to fight each other for profit, let alone different associations between different witch territories.

Now is the Demon King era, and also the peak era of Demon Witches. With the integrity of this group of bad things who play with original sin power every day, how could they resist not reaching out to the cakes of other witch territories.

And Demon Witches love to play with rules the most. They are definitely reasonable competition under the rules. Even if you are unhappy, you definitely can't find trouble with them.

And among them, the most common means of Demon Witches is proxy war, which is to use original sin power to seduce and corrupt others, make people fall into their minions, and then become double agents to work for them.

Now everything is understood.

It turns out that they were not only blocking someone else's way, but also blocking someone else from completing the master's task.

Dorothy understood completely now.

Hehe, I just like the way you want to bite me but can't do anything about me.

The Home Witch smiled without conscience.

Although she was a good person, she was not a fool, and she wouldn't be soft-hearted to the point of actively giving way because she blocked someone else's way.

Bodhisattva heart is not used like this.

"What are you looking at?"

Once again feeling someone from the Black Scale Workshop peeking at her with hostile eyes, Dorothy no longer endured it. She directly glared back with a fierce, vicious look.

The outline of those peach blossom eyes that were originally quite hooking immediately became sharp, and the originally round pupils immediately turned into forest vertical pupils, with dots of scarlet flashing in them.

Her eyes seemed to hide a giant dragon that would eat people.

What's wrong, do you think your family has too many people?

The Young Lady's eyes directly wrote such meaning.

Immediately, the titled Great Witch on the opposite side was cowardly.

Hehe, this notoriety is sometimes really useful.

... The Home Witch is grinning... ===== CHAPTER 885 =====
