Chapter 505: [Roosting Giant Tree] Evolution Complete

Apart from merchants, who were bound by interests and thus posed little harm to them, any other humans approaching Witches definitely harbored some ulterior motives.

For Ageless Witches, time was not a problem.

Therefore.

As long as they waited for a hundred or eighty years and got used to it, it would be fine. Anyway, as long as they got used to many things, there would be no problem.

Of course, saying they didn't make contact wasn't absolute either.

After all, there were still many enemies waiting to be hunted down; the Witches of the Tower Clan, from top to bottom, hadn't forgotten this.

Sanctuary upgrades were not an unfamiliar thing to anyone.

So when white smoke rose from the central area, all the Witches in Eureka City knew what Lan Qingyou was doing.

First, she made the city float, and then she upgraded the Sanctuary.

Whether it was Witches out shopping, Witches running shops, or Witches researching something, it was all the same.

Because they all knew that what came next was the key to whether the entire Witch Clan and the entire Flying City could truly operate.

However, after the white smoke dissipated, the first thing the Witches noticed was no longer the issue of whether they were flying or not.

A large tree.

A very, very large tree that almost covered the entire city abruptly appeared in everyone's line of sight like a parasol.

But although it was like a parasol, sunlight would actually still spill into Eureka City.

And quite a lot of it.

Rather, this sunlight filtering through the leaves made the already dreamlike Flying City even more dreamlike, and more suited to the Witches' tastes.

And those iconic bird nest-like leaves had already declared its identity.

—The Roosting Giant Tree.

Now the Roosting Giant Tree was so large that it was hard to comprehend.

However, compared to the previous Roosting Giant Tree, the leaves on the current giant tree had become much more diverse.

The types of bird nests were so numerous that most of the knowledgeable and multitalented Witches hadn't even seen them before.

But it didn't matter.

Anyway, although these flying monsters would call out, they didn't seem too noisy. Perhaps because of the giant tree, these calls sounded more like singing, giving a fairytale feel.

So nobody had any objections to the growth of the Roosting Giant Tree.

After all, without disturbing them, more monsters they had never seen before flying over to roost meant that the range of choices for their Familiars was broader.

Plus, with the precedent of Pandora the [Flame Witch]'s mutated Fire Elemental Spirit Familiar, everyone felt that growing bigger wasn't a bad thing.

Tower Witch: "The Flight Management Center is located on the tenth basement floor of the Industrial Zone. Who of you will be in charge of it?"

Immediately after the upgrade was completed, Lan Qingyou asked in the group.

After all, although she previously knew new facilities would appear, it was unclear exactly what they were or in what manner they would be presented.

But now that she roughly knew what they were like after the upgrade, Lan Qingyou naturally had to start assigning work.

Of course.

As the Clan Leader, she wouldn't force her clan members to do anything.

Everything relied on volunteering. Anyway, there were people researching all sorts of things within the Witch Clan; for this kind of thing, it only required someone to be interested.

After all, flying was inherently something that brought people joy.

Sure enough.

The very next second after Lan Qingyou sent out her inquiry, that woman appeared.

Steel Witch: "Does that even need saying? Me, of course. I'll just move my entire sanctuary over there."

She didn't even leave any room for those behind her to retort.

However, relying solely on Erica the [Steel Witch] definitely wouldn't work, so four or five others stepped forward later, all expressing that they would move their sanctuaries in as well.

To this, Lan Qingyou naturally didn't say anything. Anyway, if they found the living environment poor or inconvenient, they could just move back out.

It was nothing more than the matter of one or two scrolls either way.

Tower Witch: "Have you gone over yet?"

Steel Witch: "I'm heading there right now."

Tower Witch: "I've already informed Margaret over there. You just need to go down to the tenth floor directly from the Industrial Zone management building."

Steel Witch: "Aren't you planning to go take a look?"

Tower Witch: "I'm also on my way, but I should be faster than you."

Steel Witch: "Alright then."

As early as when the white smoke rose, Lan Qingyou had flown out the door.

After all, once the upgrade started, there was no place for her to be useful. Since that was the case, she might as well go see what the so-called Flight Management Center looked like.

As for the matter of the Roosting Giant Tree, she put it aside for later.

It was just that halfway through her flight, after the white smoke dissipated, the sheer size of the Roosting Giant Tree allowed her to see the specific situation without even having to return to her shelter.

Simply put, it was an enhanced version of the previous Roosting Giant Tree.

Besides being able to attract even higher-tier flying monsters, it also gained a new function of purifying the city's air.

Although it wasn't clear what exactly it could do.

But since the giant tree had grown, Lan Qingyou could indeed feel that the Mana Density in the air was slowly rising.

If the giant tree really transformed Eureka City into a 'Heavy Magic Zone', that would be too much of a bargain.

After all, so-called 'Heavy Magic Zones' only existed in places with extreme natural phenomena.

Like volcanoes, the bottom of the sea, the center of a storm, and so on...

A Heavy Magic Zone suitable for human habitation like this was something Lan Qingyou had never seen before.

As for what the benefits of a Heavy Magic Zone were, the first thing to mention was that under conditions of high Mana Density, the quality of materials like herbs would not degrade even if they were simply stored without any special techniques.

Secondly, the quality of herbs growing in these places would be higher than those in ordinary areas.

For example, those Flame Bells that Li Huai picked for Lan Qingyou at the volcanic crater back then fell into this category.

So this couldn't be better for the Witch Clan, where everyone was an Alchemist.

As for whether living here would have any effects on people, that remained unknown.

This could also be considered a topic for later research.

After Lan Qingyou looked at the Roosting Giant Tree in the sky, which although covering the entire territory didn't seem too oppressive, she quickly flew towards the Flight Management Center.

Upon arriving at the tenth floor of the Industrial Zone management building, the first person Lan Qingyou encountered was Margaret waiting there.

"Clan Leader, the facilities here have all finished upgrading."

"Mm, good work."

Putting on the airs of a leader, Lan Qingyou floated into the management center with her hands behind her back.

Except that after going in, Lan Qingyou felt somewhat unaccustomed.

The reason she felt unaccustomed was partly because this layout, which looked like the security surveillance room of some residential community, made her feel a bit incongruous, and partly because of those biological tentacles that would occasionally swing around.

Lan Qingyou knew without looking that these tentacles originated from Cthuya's eye cell tissues.

However, out of professional habit, she still appraised them.
