"You…"
Marin was shaking with anger.
But in the end, she still waved her hand and beckoned to Serena behind her, "Serena! Pay him!"
"Yes, Lady Marin!"
Serena answered, and only then did Ethan realize in surprise.
This witch in front of him, who looked somewhat masculine, actually spoke with a man's voice?
'Aren't they called wilderness witches?'
'How could there be men among witches?'
[Wilderness Witches: This is just a collective term for a group. Because the number of women who choose to become wilderness witches far exceeds the number of men, they are collectively called wilderness witches. However, there are still a small number of males among witches.]
[PS: Wilderness warlocks usually love war even more than wilderness witches, so try not to provoke them.]
"One million dragon coins."
Serena directly took out a small money pouch from his signet ring and threw it onto the ground, "Take it and get lost already. Lady Marin came here today to take revenge. Since your matter is settled, shouldn't you also get lost."
"That's only natural."
Mr. White rubbed his hands together, picked up the money pouch from the ground, and didn't care at all about whether Ethan lived or died.
Make the money and leave. Truly the style of a profiteer.
He didn't even bother acknowledging Ethan, the old boss who had helped him make so much money.
'That's just too much!'
Ethan sighed silently.
But there was nothing he could do about it. Whether it was Mr. White or the wilderness witches, neither was someone he could butt into.
"Heh! Heh!"
The wilderness witch Marin swept her gaze across the residents inside the villa.
Then she glanced at Ethan, and only then did she let out a cold laugh, "Even though I wasted a full one million dragon coins for nothing, I didn't expect this little lord to be quite wealthy."
"Being able to take back so many servants, plus this villa, counts as some compensation."
"Dozens of servants working like cattle and horses for me for a hundred years or so, and the money will pretty much be earned back. Even though the time is a bit long, it's not too much of a loss."
After the wilderness witch finished speaking, she once again began to wave the wand in her hand.
As the white light at the tip of the wand gradually grew brighter, Ethan's heart also gradually turned ice-cold…
'Am I really about to be finished just like this?'
"Oh! Right."
Just as Mr. White took a few steps forward, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Witch Marin, "Lady Marin, there's something I forgot to tell you."
"What is it? Say it!"
Marin stopped chanting. Her expression was impatient, but she still listened to Mr. White.
After all, she had already suffered once. She didn't want to suffer again.
"Mr. Ethan is also a member of our Merchants' Association."
Mr. White finally spoke up for Ethan, "And he was even selected by our association as the best relay station."
"If you destroy Mr. Ethan's territory, that's equivalent to destroying our association's relay station."
"If you make a move against Mr. Ethan, that's equivalent to breaking the rules of the association."
"As a member of the association, I still feel it's necessary to remind you."
"Damn it!"
Marin was truly furious now, because her face started melting once again. Truly vaporizing from anger.
"First you say those monsters were your goods!"
"Then you say this one is a member of your merchant alliance. Are you deliberately stopping me from avenging my sister?"
"This matter was originally just between me and him. Does your association even want to interfere in this? Do you think I'm especially easy to bully?"
"You are the strongest among the wilderness witches, Lady Marin."
Mr. White bowed once more to the wilderness witch, "Even the lord of Mist City has to respectfully address you as Lady Marin. Naturally, I wouldn't think you're easy to bully."
"On the contrary, I think that since you are the representative of the Wilderness Witch Alliance and the leader of the alliance, if you feel that the alliance can bear the consequences of breaking the rules, then I naturally won't stop you."
"I'll even take my goods right now and turn around and leave."
BOOM!
The wilderness witch exploded with rage. She swung her wand straight down at the ground.
In an instant, the wand shot out a huge blue fireball, and when it smashed into the massive body of the cyclops, it directly blew the more than five-meter-tall cyclops into pieces.
The cyclops's flesh flew everywhere. Some even splattered in front of Ethan, and the system even prompted him to collect it.
[Cyclops minced meat: Can increase defense. Collect?]
'Collect!'
Ethan secretly collected the cyclops's minced meat.
If he didn't eat it, he could give it to his pets anyway. No reason to waste it.
[Cyclops minced meat +1]
[Cyclops minced meat +2]
[Cyclops minced meat…]
BOOM!
Another blue ice ball smashed down from midair.
But this time it didn't hit the cyclops. It smashed into the siren instead.
[Discovered siren fragments. Collect?]
[Frozen siren meat: The texture is similar to fish. The marbled slices dipped in a bit of black fruit oil taste very much like frozen salmon!]
'It's been so long since I've had salmon. Drooling!'
ԅ(¯﹃¯ԅ)
Ethan didn't hesitate at all and chose…
'Collect!'
[Frozen siren meat +1]
[Frozen siren meat +2]
[Frozen siren meat…]
"Damn it!"
"Damn stinking bug!"
The wilderness witch was venting her fury, roaring as she hurled fireballs at the ground one after another.
But every time she smashed one down, she didn't dare hit anywhere else, ahe only dared to secretly smash the two monsters she had bought at a huge price.
As the monsters' flesh and limbs were blown apart and scattered everywhere, Ethan kept sneaking around picking up meat.
From the cyclops alone, Ethan collected about one third of its flesh.
As for the siren, since it was smaller, Ethan collected about twenty pounds of salmon-like meat. He even started planning how he was going to eat it later.
'Best to have Cook Four steam some rice, then make salmon nigiri.'
'And use the rest to make a plate of salmon sashimi.'
'As for the parts with bones…'
'Those can have some rice added and be made into a salmon clay pot porridge. That also sounds pretty good.'
"Lady Marin, your goods have already been completely ruined."
Even though Mr. White could feel how powerful the wilderness witch was, he still said with a smiling face, "But isn't it about time for you to stop? After all, Mr. Ethan's land also belongs to our chamber of commerce. If you smash up the flowers and plants here, that wouldn't be very nice."
"Hmph! You profiteers colluding with each other!"
Marin glared angrily at Mr. White, then glared at Ethan, "Since his territory is a transfer station for the chamber of commerce, I'll give your association some face and won't smash this place. But that doesn't mean this matter is over."
"Little bug, you'd better not step out of this place lightly. Otherwise, I can take your life at any time!"
