Becoming a God by Raising a Witch

Four men wearing masks rushed out of the alley and blocked the carriage's path.

"Get out of the car and hand over all your money!"

The leading man shouted.

Hannah nervously grabbed Locke's clothes. Locke patted her shoulder and comforted her, "It's okay. You guys are in the car. I'll go down and take a look."

"How can you let the master go down for such a thing? I'll go take a look."

As Rebecca said this, she wanted to get out of the car and go deal with these four reckless guys and let them taste the feeling of losing their souls.

Locke grabbed her, "Don't go."

"Rebecca, please stop making trouble."

Hannah also grabbed Rebecca tightly. In her eyes, Rebecca was just a loli girl. What could she do? Give me a snack from the wolf's mouth?

It was too dangerous for Rebecca to get out of the car.

Locke and Erin got out of the car.

He took out his ID and a revolver issued by a different government.

"I am an investigator from the Sixth Public Security Court. You four, follow me back to the Security Court."

The four of them were frightened when they saw the pistol in Locke's hand.

How can the knives and sticks in their hands compare with pistols?

Locke saw that this group of people was not a mafia. They didn't even have guns. They looked like a group of desperate young people working together to rob.

"I'm in a good mood today. I'll give you a chance. Get out of here quickly, but don't rob passing carriages again. The next time you are caught by me, you will be punished on the spot."

Locke fired a shot at the ground. Amidst the dull sound of bullets, a groove appeared on the ground and white smoke was rising.

The four people were so frightened that they ran away.

The reason why Locke fired was to remind other onlookers not to act rashly.

Sure enough, I never encountered any robbers along the way.

Erin licked her paws, "Why did you let them go?"

"It's not good for me to stay. I don't want to work overtime and have to send people to the ordinary magistrates' court."

After the carriage arrived at the manor, Locke said to the carriage driver,

"Hard work, wait for us here for a while, we have to return."

Locke took out 2 grams and stuffed it into the coachman, "Here's a tip."

"Okay, thank you, distinguished Mr. Investigator, I will wait here."

The coachman was very happy, not only because he got a 2-meter tip, but also because Locke was an investigator, that is, a high-ranking police officer.

This made him feel very safe, and he no longer had to be afraid even if he walked at night.

And for this round trip, he can earn 100 grams.

This is definitely a good business for the coachman.

It could already make up for the loss from the robbery he suffered in the morning.

Locke takes Erin, Hannah and Rebecca into the reindeer manor.

Hannah couldn't believe her eyes. She couldn't believe that the beautiful manor castle in front of her was already under Locke's name.

"Locke, are we sure we didn't go wrong?"

Hannah asked.

"Of course, you are right. This will be our manor from now on. Behind it is the Ur Mountains. You can also go hunting in the back mountains."

Locke said.

Eileen nodded slightly, quite satisfied with the manor. At the same time, she also noticed that there was a cemetery in the dense forest a hundred meters to the right of the manor.

Erin's little paw patted Locke's shoulder,

"I will recruit a group of servants for you who do not need wages. This manor will never be short of people to clean in the future."

"A servant who doesn't need a salary?"

Locke looked at Erin suspiciously.

Erin proudly raised the cat's chin,

"Yes, always free."

Chapter 137, Interview with the Immortal

Butler Monte once again took the new owners Hannah and Rebecca to visit the manor.

Through his brief interaction with Hannah, the experienced Monte already understood that this was a poor and kind new employer, which made him worry about the future.

Locke took Eileen alone to visit the back garden of the manor.

"Although these flowers and plants are beautiful, they are of no use. I plan to grow them into food and vegetables. The soil here is fertile, and it is no problem to grow rice. That area can be used to grow vegetables, tomatoes, peppers, cabbages and potatoes. Essential ingredients.”

Erin nodded slightly and agreed with the proposal, but objected to growing cabbage.

"Of course, if you want to grow rice, you have to consider the issue of irrigation. You have to build a new irrigation pipeline, which takes a certain amount of time."

"It doesn't matter. There are ready-made water pipes in the garden. Maybe you can use them."

"That's true, but growing rice requires the care of experienced farmers, and I don't think we can find such talents."

Locke felt that even a gourmet like himself could not complete the work of a farmer.

"It's better to grow some herbs needed for magic rituals. You can sell them for money or use them yourself."

Irene gave Locke an idea of ​​a way to make money, and Locke's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea."

“What about the row of ornamental trees?”

Irene also seemed to dislike the row of ornamental banyan trees.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I originally planned to plant fruit trees, but there are actually fruit trees and a pasture here. I can combine the two to carry out ecological breeding of cattle, sheep, pigs, and fish ponds. In the future, meat Food is no longer a problem.”

"Then why not replace it with bread trees. Each bread tree can store enough drinking water. In this way, even if the war starts and the water company's pipes are blown up, the water supply to the manor will not be affected."

Erin suggested.

"Breadfruit is a good idea, but breadfruit grows in the tropics, so it shouldn't survive here, right?"

Locke asked.

"We can use magic to change the climate around the bread tree. We only need a magic formation to do it."

Erin said.

"Isn't this something only a weather witch can do? How could you do it?"

Locke couldn't help but asked curiously.

"I told you that I am omnipotent. Of course, I only know a little bit about it. If you want me to change the climate of the entire manor, or the weather of the entire Kosolk, I can't do it."

Erin licked the cat's paw, jumped on Locke's head, and pointed at the ornamental banyan trees, "But with that row of trees, it can still be done."

"Does this magic circle require continuous input of magic power?"

Locke asked.

"Just enter it every once in a while, it doesn't need to be that troublesome."

Erin replied.

Locke took Eileen to visit the stables and other places, and introduced the dedicated groom Herbert to Eileen.

"Although he has good character and knows how to endure hardships and stand hard work, I am worried that he will not get along well with his colleagues in the future."

"Herbert has a very good character, and he shouldn't have trouble getting along with others. In fact, I think both Mr. Butler and Herbert can stay. I should be able to afford their salaries."

Locke said.

"I'll give you a better choice."

Erin raised her head.

Locke began to wonder, where would there be permanent free labor?

"I'll give you a week to find a way to get rid of the other people in the manor. If you definitely want to keep a few, then you will be responsible for their subsequent expenses. In my opinion, there is no need to keep any of them."

Erin said.

"Please don't use the word "solve", and if I fire them all, you have to show me what kind of employees you are recruiting, right?"

Locke shrugged and said.

"good."

Irene took Locke to the dense forest near the manor, passed through the dense forest, and came to a gloomy cemetery.

The wind here seemed to be extremely cold, causing goose bumps to appear on Locke's neck. He pulled the red scarf so that it could cover his mouth and nose, blocking the wind that wanted to pour into his neck.

Under the cold moonlight, crooked words were written on the snow-covered tombstones.

It looks like an abandoned cemetery, with no gravekeepers or iron fences to protect it.

There are no fruits for worship in front of the tombstone, and it looks deserted.

"Wait, you don't want them to work for me, do you?"

Locke swallowed and pointed to one of the tombstones in disbelief.

Erin nodded slightly, "Yes, they are free forever. If their skeletons are no longer good, they can be replaced."

Locke made up a picture in his mind of zombies handling garden plants and growing vegetables, skeletons cooking for him, and skeleton maids changing clothes for him. He couldn't help but shudder.

"No, Hannah will be scared to death by them, I refuse."

"You should let Hannah know that she stays with a demon all day long and will encounter weird events sooner or later. It's time for her to get to know the real you. If she can't accept it, she won't be able to continue living with you in the future."

Erin said directly.

"Can you stand the rotten smell on them?"

Locke narrowed his eyes, feeling that this would definitely defeat Erin.

"I don't want rotting corpses. I just want skeleton soldiers. They won't have the smell of decay. They don't even have internal organs. And I will make them bathe every day to keep them clean and hygienic."

Erin said with a smile.

Wait, isn’t this something that an undead witch can do?

Does Erin really know a little bit of everything? This is completely different from what Boyd said.

Is it because Irene is a special witch? He devoured other witches, thus gaining their power.

Locke guessed so.

Irene was already driving and chanting strange incantations, and one bone-white hand after another stretched out from the snow.

Looking at this eerie scene, Locke's hair stood up again. He had a normal person's natural fear of the dead.

"Come on, let's start the interview today to see if there are suitable talents in this cemetery. If they are not suitable, we will go to the next cemetery to check."

Erin said with a serious face.

"Hey, hey, don't use the cemetery as a recruitment market. They all look scary."

Locke couldn't help but complained.

Erin waved her tail, "What's so scary? Make such a fuss. You will see more terrifying scenes in the future. Get used to it first."

"no."

Locke and Erin both held their noses as Erin awakened a fresh carrion.

"Go back, go back, you don't meet the requirements."

Erin said to the carrion.

The rotting corpse looked at Irene with aggrieved eyes, and finally got into the soil and buried itself.

Locke and Erin felt the freshness of the air at the same time and breathed a sigh of relief.
