Chapter 1042: 621.The Witching Hour_2
However, this tree didn’t grow chaotically as if someone had slipped a design blueprint into it. This hastened tree grew strictly according to that design, eventually becoming a beautiful treehouse with three bedrooms, two living rooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
Even the wooden furniture inside, such as tables, chairs, and beds, were all complete.
“Wow, senior sister, isn’t this the Witch of the Forest’s Bonfire Treehouse she just released? You learned it so quickly, and I haven’t even figured out the spell’s principles yet, it’s so hard.”
The Little Fox beside her, being a fervent witchcraft fan, immediately recognized the method her senior sister had just used and couldn’t help feeling a bit envious.
This Bonfire Treehouse spell doesn’t have a high learning threshold, requiring only Five Rings and is a Mid-Level Magic Spell. But it’s a multi-system composite magic, with complex principles involving Evocation, Metamorphosis, Necromancy, Natural Magic, and other factions of knowledge. Therefore, if your knowledge isn’t broad enough, it requires some effort to supplement your learning.
Audrey herself is currently busy catching up.
However, while the learning difficulty is high, the spell is also extremely practical. It receives rave reviews on the Magic Network, highly praised by many mercenary witches or adventurer witches. After obtaining this spell, witches constantly running around in the wild finally have a comfortable camping environment. Some armed witches on the frontline have even planted these treehouses directly on the battlefield.
After all, if you just want a good camping environment, such extravagant Five Rings Magic isn’t necessary. Sometimes, Intermediate-Level Magic is sufficient for city-wide destruction. For mere camping, some One-Ring or Two-Ring Camping Magic would suffice.
The reason this witchcraft spell is so well-received, aside from elevating people’s camping standards from living in a matchbox to a well-decorated treehouse villa, is because this treehouse villa isn’t just for living. Its essence is a villa-disguised auto-defense fortress.
The bonfire is equipped with hostility detection capabilities, capable of round-the-clock scanning of the campsite surroundings, alerting at the first sign of external intrusion.
The branches inserted into the bonfire need to be shaped like a wooden sword because they borrow the aggressive attributes of weapons, suppressing the power of intruders and forming a domain of its own.
More so, the life-force in the flames of reborn dead wood combines with the treehouse’s Power of Nature, granting residents special buffs like “Accelerated Energy Recovery,” “Doubling Healing Effects,” “Deep Sleep,” etc.
If all else fails, just close the door and hide in this seemingly fragile treehouse. In reality, its defensive power is far ahead among the Five-Ring Magic Shields. Using some special “wooden swords” as casting materials can even overload and enhance defense, reaching high-level shield defense if the wood quality is good enough.
You can fully enjoy your meal and tea inside, watching the frustrated enemies desperately trying to kick down the door, then when that door seems to be giving in, just toss a bit more Magic Power into the bonfire inside.
The more fuel you add, the brighter the bonfire burns, the more vitality the treehouse gains, and its automatic repair ability also doubles, allowing you to relish in your enemy’s frenzy as the repair speed outpaces the break speed.
Overall, it’s quite elegant.
This magic spell’s convenience and usability are a godsend miracle for those armed witches who constantly lick the knife’s edge, where even a good night’s sleep is a luxury.
Therefore, even if this magic is one of the more expensive ones among the Witch of the Forest series, it’s still a hot seller. Many armed veterans even express that only Five Rings won’t do justice, eagerly handing over their money, demanding a Nine Ring or even Forbidden Curse-level War Fortress Spell.
“You must work hard then. This spell isn’t really that hard; it only looks complex. It’s simply basic common knowledge from various factions in application. Audrey, you’ll learn it soon enough.”
Dorothy rubbed her junior sister’s head, comforting her like this.
Beside her, the coffin’s lid opened, and the Pure White Witch stepped out, somewhat speechless at this young lady toying with their Little Fox sister’s heart.
Haha, you little Witch of the Forest, you’re quite naughty, only fools believe you; simple common knowledge my foot.
Nonetheless, a good woman won’t undermine her own superior’s words. Sophia shook her head, smiling as she watched it all.
In such a desolate mountainous area, she didn’t need to hide in a coffin anymore and could come out for a breather.
After comforting the junior sister, the trio of witches went to the nearby river with their small stools, preparing to fish.
Yes, planning to have fish for dinner later. Whoever ends up with an empty hook won’t have a meal.
Speaking of fishing, the Homebody Witch remembered the octopus-headed evil god she caught last time is still uneaten in her bag,
That creature with its innocent dumb demeanor had strong regenerative ability in its tentacles. Dorothy planned to keep it in the fishing space in her bag as reserves. Maybe she could slice another tentacle later for grilling or soup.
It’s really tasty.
After a few hours, with the sun setting west and the evening glow already painting the sky, none of the three witches managed to catch a fish.
As the three awkwardly exchanged glances, Dorothy, ready to spoil these fish no longer, had her sleeves rolled up to directly draw water when she froze and turned towards the Bonfire Treehouse.
Something’s amiss, something is approaching here.
The bonfire’s detection alarm had just been triggered, immediately putting the Homebody Witch on alert but also a bit expectant.
In the wilderness like this, it shouldn’t be bandits, right? Perhaps it’s some wild beast. Beasts are good, even if we can’t get fish stew tonight, we can have roast meat instead.
Beside her, a glint flashed through Sophia’s golden eyes, seeing everything in the distance, just like Audrey’s purple eyes did.
This made a certain novice witch very envious. It’s supposed to be a lifetime of sisterhood, how come both of you have Magic Eyes? We are not the same.
Though Dorothy could use various Pupil Skills to achieve Magic Eye effects, these required spellcasting; nothing beats being innately convenient.
“Senior sister, suddenly so many people are coming below.”
On Audrey’s shoulder, the Little Fox Doll exclaimed.
And Sophia was also a bit surprised. As a Prophecy Witch, she had a premonition they were getting involved in some strange matters again. She glanced at her own young lady with some helplessness.
Hmm, this camping site was chosen by the lady.
But Dorothy shook her head, indicating she wouldn’t take the blame for this one.
“Why are you looking at me? I paid my respects after washing my face at Audrey’s, so this is definitely not my problem. It must be Sophia’s issue, you have a troublesome Physique too, don’t you?”
The Homebody Witch said this while casting Clairvoyance on herself, then saw the procession of lanterns moving during dusk.
Sophia remained silent for a moment. Though she wanted to shirk responsibility as well, her Reformer Destiny Pattern kept her silent.
This might really have something to do with her.
“Oh, what on earth is this, how come they all look so strange?”
As she saw the members of the brightly lit procession, she couldn’t help but exclaim.
Though these remote woods are deserted, these guys looked a bit too random, very frightening. Human-faced snake bodies, centipedes with all legs as beautiful hands, giant skeletal figures wearing armor, horned horses…
Moreover, they were all bizarre-looking monsters but wore clothes, singing and dancing while parading like humans.
In a moment, seeing all these bizarre demons and monsters, Dorothy instinctively mused, “Tsk, this is like some kind of Night Parade of Hyakki.”
Seeing all these strange Demons and Monsters at once, Dorothy couldn’t help but express her awe.
Then she froze. Startled by what she saw in the bright procession, she suddenly gasped.
Though this remote mountain forest was largely uninhabited, these creatures’ appearances were certainly quite casual, quite frightening, resembling all sorts of demons and creatures.
“Tsk, what is this, a Night Parade of Hyakki?”
Suddenly seeing these peculiar demons and monsters, Dorothy instinctively marveled.
But then she paused, realizing something was up.
Sunset dusk, the Witching Hour was upon them.
It was the Night Parade of Hyakki… tincidunt…
