Chapter 002 This world is growing wildly

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

If it were a world without superpowers and witches, even with these 1,000 individuals involved, it is likely that the mismatch in professional expertise and the surplus of low-end labor would lead to development failure

Jiang Han understands that if this were the domestic situation of the original world line, the consequences of such development and construction would be that taking too large a step would lead to the successive failure of various enterprises, and the country would have paid a considerable tuition fee before finally stabilizing and entering a golden period of development

The classification of foreign witches is divided into more than ten levels, whereas in the domestic context, it is simply and bluntly categorized into two types: witches and great witches

Jiang Han, through indirect hints at the dining table, has managed to grasp the fundamental common knowledge of this world

... ...

The police officers at the precinct often can only observe, striving to prevent casualties from arising between the two parties in conflict, and there are very few individuals capable of mediating the disputes between them

This topic did not last long, and the family quickly moved on to discussing the levels of witches

The gap in combat power between the two will become exceedingly vast. An ordinary witch may need to rest after flying on a broomstick from City A in the south to a certain City B, while a powerful witch is often capable of crossing oceans, constructing her own dwelling in the sea, and providing ample reasons and evidence for the nation's claim that 'this territorial sea has been an inseparable part of our territory since ancient times'

Various large-scale projects, major constructions, and extensive developments have emerged in response to the slogans.

Possessing formidable military power and outstanding individual abilities, they ultimately occupy the mainstream of the world's races. Although witches from Asia, Europe, and America have their differences, these distinctions are not so significant, nor are they so chaotic—regardless of where one obtains a witch's diploma, it is universally recognized in all corners of the world

The globally recognized origin of witches is likely located in Eastern Europe, which is why witches from various regions tend to incorporate elements of continental design. For instance, many witches in the East also wear witch robes and hats. Of course, there are also local characteristics, such as the qipao, hairpins, Hanfu, or the recently popular short robes and casual attire

Arrogance, then it is truly reckless. Unlike foreign witches who are keen on resolving disputes through tea parties and social gatherings, domestic witches exhibit an extreme characteristic of Asian culturalism where a minor disagreement can lead to immediate conflict. In this era, even if there is a slight conflict between two villages, they will rally the fighting strength of the village and charge forward wielding fireballs.

In Jiang Han's memory, her family was not exactly wealthy in the original world line, but they were part of the middle class in 1994. They lived in a villa community in the southern development zone at that time, owning a two-story villa (which she used to read as "biye" in her childhood), and their daily meals consisted of four dishes and a soup, dining out for Western cuisine once or twice a week. Perhaps because her family was originally middle class, upon arriving in this world line, they became a standard witch family of that world, and most of the other families in the villa community also transformed into middle-class witch families, such as the neighbors.

One witch is equivalent to ten production lines

Witches began to spread wildly and gradually integrate into the human world starting from the year 643 AD

The topics at the dining table had long strayed from pets; at one moment, they shifted to the advancement of witches, and at another, to international affairs. They even discussed gossip, such as which witch from one family laid an egg with another witch from a different family

Although she still cannot quickly integrate into this world, Jiang Han's sense of immersion has deepened significantly. After all, many familiar things have merely donned a layer of witch's skin to blend in, making them familiar yet distant, intimate yet still strange

For instance, if a paper mill producing papyrus for witches cannot keep up with imported goods, then the high-ranking witches can directly intervene, personally leading a group of witches to work. As long as their magical power is sufficient, can imported machinery possibly compare to the diligent work of noble rural female workers

While many domestic witches admire and love foreign cultures, when it comes to taking action, they are quite ruthless, and the national strategy is also extremely reckless

Even the slogans are shouted with great bravado: "Move mountains to create continents, fill the sea to build great bridges"

For instance, when foreign countries recently developed artificial satellites, the domestic witches immediately exclaimed, 'Let us have one too.' Although the technology was at a zero foundation level and the materials were also at a zero foundation level, the domestic expert witches devised a makeshift solution. They assembled a team of five hundred individuals, all composed of powerful witches, who rode on broomsticks to reach the outer atmosphere. There, they manually constructed a rather rudimentary platform and stationed a squad of twelve powerful witches on it, rotating different squads each month to perform the functions of a satellite.

It can be said that it has grown in a very wild manner

In those years, when she was still carrying a backpack, the little girl from the neighbor's house was her secret crush. Since the neighbor was a family composed of an American and a local, their daughter was naturally of mixed heritage, developing physically much better than her peers and possessing the exquisite features typical of mixed-race children

However, in the worldview of witches, traditional methods can indeed solve problems

In this era, the witch culture advocated domestically is in its infancy, entering a phase characterized by extreme duality of both inferiority and pride

Among the more than one billion people in the country, there are seven hundred million witches, all of whom possess superpowers and extraordinary abilities. ... The state wielded a heavy hammer recklessly, and with the ample number of witches, it truly succeeded in forging a new path.

Witches legally possess only the normal rights and obligations of citizens, while great witches belong to the genuine elite class, receiving preferential treatment and special privileges from both the municipal hall and provincial government. Furthermore, akin to a doctor's degree, they can apply for various research funds from official institutions.

The witch line of 1994 was somewhat barbaric and reckless

A witch is akin to a bachelor's degree, while a sorceress is comparable to a doctor's degree

Due to the high egg-laying rate and low survival rate, often only one out of twenty to thirty eggs can survive the behavior of being stored in the refrigerator for 8 months. Therefore, in the refrigerators of witch families, it is common to find dozens of sister eggs of their daughters, casting a wide net

According to my sister, the neighbor's family is a mix of Chinese and foreign heritage... The Western witch came to China for development, which can be considered as the introduction of talent

Human adaptability is strong, and so is that of witches

However, the concept of witches does not encompass any notion of mid-tier or low-tier labor. Aside from a few purely noble intellectual workers, the labor of witches is treated equally, differing only in the magnitude of their magical power. Therefore, with 1,000 witches working together, constructing a dam would only take about ten days to half a month.

The witch who takes on the active role is referred to as the 'Father Clan', while the passive role is known as the 'Mother Clan'. Often, a new witch represents the excellent evolution of both the Father and Mother Clans, embodying many characteristics from both sides, whether single-clan or multi-clan traits. For instance, the younger sister Jiang Zhenling has inherited her mother A Ye Keshu's height, eyes, and some personality traits, while she has not inherited many characteristics from her mother B Jiang Xuan. In this world, Jiang Han has inherited the height of her mother B, but has also taken on the appearance traits of her mother A. Single-clan or multi-clan traits, for example, the younger sister Jiang Zhenling has inherited her mother A Ye Keshu's height, eyes, and some personality traits, while she has not inherited many characteristics from her mother B Jiang Xuan. In this world, Jiang Han has inherited the height of her mother B, but has also taken on the appearance traits of her mother A

If it were to change to another timeline, wouldn't that lead to significant issues

If the witch is not enough, then we shall summon the great witch

The domestic witches are curious about and eager to absorb everything Western, including Western culture and education.

She still has a relatively strong impression of her neighbor's family

However, this is the witch's world line

In the midst of a fervent development campaign, one witch is not enough, so let's have ten. If ten are not enough—local officials boldly declare: "No problem, let's go straight for one thousand!"

Inferiority complex is a yearning and longing for Western witches. It can be seen that most witches in the country have been studying Western languages since elementary school and have been delving into Western-style magic from a young age.

Younger sister Jiang Zhenling also gossiped about the witch living near their home

Indeed, witches are oviparous beings. The reproductive process involves two witches engaging in a special interaction, after which they lay an egg. Subsequently, the egg must be placed in a refrigerator for 8 months, and then incubated by a witch for 18 days to produce a new witch
