Chapter 553: The Smiling Witch Angela

Of course, although it was called 'having a sense of purpose', it wasn't a derogatory term.

Rather, compared to the other guys who would just open their mouths and say 'let's do whatever', her goal was very clear.

A huge research topic like this needed to be divided into various different groups to do different research.

For this 'profession system', apart from the patterns on the arms that needed to be properly researched, there was also the magic desk that needed to be researched.

Apart from these two 'peripherals', the rest were matters regarding 'code development'.

There were also things like the profession settings of warrior, mage, and priest.

Although it was simple and crude, it didn't mean it could be done just by moving one's lips.

In everyone's subsequent discussions, this was the most discussed topic.

Among them, some people felt that although this profession allocation method was classic, it couldn't keep up with the times. Especially since this thing was like a game allocation, it was even more unsuitable.

To put it plainly, an Alchemist like Lan Qingyou was a representative of lifestyle professions.

The Witch Race was inherently a race of magicians.

But it couldn't be helped that they were also inherently Alchemists!

And compared to Alchemist, a lifestyle skill that most people could learn,

So after considering for three seconds, Lan Qingyou decisively chose to research the pattern on the arm, this visible and tangible 'peripheral'.

As for the other 'peripheral', the magic desk, it was naturally handed over to the Wheel of Fortune, Magician, and Priestess, these three guys who had previously researched the magic desk together.

As for the remaining 'software' aspect, it was left for the remaining guys to handle.

Anyway, compared to that kind of thing, Lan Qingyou felt she was still more adept at researching graphics.

No matter what, she was a master at using magic arrays and alchemy arrays.

And if one wanted to specialize in these two things, then symbology definitely had to be maxed out.

In fact, after these few years of accumulation, many of Lan Qingyou's disciplines had already reached the highest realm of SSS rank.

So she had full confidence in this task.

Of course, Lan Qingyou wasn't the only one researching this thing.

Sun (Ingrid), who previously proposed using runes, and Star (Ruan Qingyi), who intended to use magic circuits, were also among them.

After all, one was an existence who could directly create World Artifacts, one was a bigshot whose casual scribbles could be considered enchantments, and the other had developed a large-scale Magic Shield.

It could be said that these three were top-notch 'graphics experts' not only in the entire Manor but even across the entire Karim Continent.

They were all existences extremely adept at things like 'patterns'.

Tower: "So are we going to research separately first, or is everyone going to use one aspect to research first?"

In a newly created temporary small group, Lan Qingyou and the other two began a heated discussion.

Sun: "I think it's better to research separately. After all, what we each excel at is different. Forcing us to research one aspect together is the biggest waste of human resources."

Star: "I also think this is best. Although it seems like it might waste some time, doing it this way is actually the optimal solution."

Tower: "Alright, let's do it this way then. I will mainly research the adaptation degree between magic arrays and patterns, with runes and magic circuits secondary."

Sun: "Mhm, I'll still focus on runes. After all, I'm not a pervert like you who knows a little bit of everything."

Star: "I am a 'yes-man' alien, I only know how to say yes, yes, yes. Also, real-name envying a certain guy who knows a little bit of everything."

After slightly roasting each other, relaxing their moods, and dividing the labor, everyone plunged into their own research.

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of miles away, a witch wearing a black robe was currently riding a Flying Broom, fleeing wildly.

Chasing her behind were a group of guys wearing white robes and pointed hoods that only revealed their eyes.

The reason this group of guys could keep up with the speed of a witch riding a Flying Broom was entirely because the other party was also riding things.

Only, compared to an inanimate object like a Flying Broom, what they were riding were indeed huge White-Headed Eagles.

"Chasing a lady like this will make people hate you, you know."

Although she was being chased, this witch didn't have any panic. Instead, she revealed a teasing expression, occasionally turning her head to look at the guys behind her.

To be honest, no matter which of these two groups of people were placed on Blue Star, their attire would absolutely be considered bizarre.

But in Karim, it felt very fitting.

It's just that this chase scene didn't look very harmonious.

"Hmph, wicked witch, accept the judgement from the Pure Origin Sect."

Riding on a White-Headed Eagle, the leader flying at the very front shouted at the witch ahead through his hood.

While shouting, he was also waving the weapon in his hand, as if he wanted to tear the witch into ten thousand pieces.

"Ah, right, right, right. What else can you guys do besides sneak attacks and intimidation?"

If provoked, one must provoke back; this is a witch's creed.

Not to mention, as a member of the Tourism Department who loved freedom and nature, Angela had never had the habit of swallowing her anger.

So facing these people who were chasing her with sharp weapons and threatening to sanction her, she absolutely wouldn't be soft-spoken either.

Even if she died, she couldn't be soft-spoken.

This is called losing the battle but not losing the spirit.

That's right.

This witch was none other than one of the 'Four Witches of the Golden Plains', from the same batch as Susie, Diana, and Helen—the Smiling Witch, Angela.

The reason this guy became a member of the Tourism Department, going out to enjoy the scenery and collect intelligence, was because after the other three went to the Forsaken Territory, she felt it was more fun to play outside. So after moving her shelter to the Forsaken Territory, she joined the Tourism Department.

You could even say that apart from that relocation, Angela had never returned to her shelter again.

When living outside, she either stayed in an Adventurer City.

Or she stayed in her own tent.

Don't think that a lifestyle almost equivalent to wandering like the Tourism Department meant they were penniless paupers.

This was a witch, an Alchemist who could make money just by casually brewing a pot of potions.

Although the conditions outside were harsh, there was not a single thing missing inside the magic tent.

Even sometimes when inspiration struck to do experiments, these guys would complete them inside the tent.

So even wandering outside like this, they actually lived better than most transmigrators.

Rather, a witch living poorly simply didn't exist.

After all, even the laziest witch, as long as she spent a day making the lowest-grade potions, it would be enough for her to live for ten days to half a month.

As for why she was being hunted by a squad of guys from the Pure Origin Sect, that's truly a long story.
