Of course, the research of each member of the seventeen Witch Hunter Knights was awesome.
But those were pure Breathing Skill Furnace Skills, not witchcraft.
This information couldn’t possibly be learned in a short period of time.
This was the master’s lifetime of research.
Using the chicken bone, Lin An found some stones in the woods to make a backup key and then left the place again with the little boss.
The little boss needed to go to the Lu Jiao headquarters to retrieve Caidai Witch, who was currently going through the most thrilling moment of his life—ah, so he has a father—ah, his father is dying—ah, though his father was saved by the Great Commander, he seemed to have gone mad…
At the same time, the little boss also had to prepare a large amount of daily necessities and some containers that could be used as temporary shelters.
Well, containers were Lin An’s idea, An said that even if there were no containers, those temporary dormitories on construction sites would do.
Kidding, that was the biggest mockery of the little boss.
Who was he?
A rich brother!
He planned to buy a dozen or so RVs to come over and give Lin An a good shock with his superpowers.
Lin An obviously didn’t know about this, his task was to go to the train station to pick up those subordinates. Although these people were still a drag on him for now, once he truly mastered the ‘Mind Balance Curse’ taught by Mr. Liu, these subordinates would become his witchcraft add-ons!
Casually calling upon his subordinates’ psychic abilities to assist himself in casting their witchcraft.
Such a thing, just thinking about it felt awesome.
Of course, there were limitations, as it had to be someone who truly recognized the ‘subordinate’ relationship.
So Lin An also planned to teach these subordinates the ‘Wizard’s Furnace’ skills, adding a ‘teacher and student’ relationship on top of the ‘commander and subordinate’ one.
If one truly devoted oneself, the commander and teacher, one of these identities ought to be able to move these people, right?
If they still couldn’t win their recognition, he really wouldn’t mind clearing such ingrates out of the team.
From this perspective, the witchcraft also possessed a loyalty detection function.
The subsequent progress had no additional emergencies.
The dazed Caidai Witch was brought back, and several excited subordinates were also brought back.
But the little boss had no chance to give Lin An even a tiny bit of a rich man’s shock.
Because their subordinates gave them an even bigger shock.
The sibling duo, the high school brother named Chen Shen, his ability was ‘Dust Upheaval’. His college student sister was named Chen Jie, her ability was ‘Reveal’. Together they could explore traces of human activity from the past.
They operated a private detective agency through this and used to live quite comfortably.
However, now that both Rabbit-Eyed Demon Hunter Feng Xin and Dark Witch Mr. Liu were targeting them, they had no choice but to rely on Lin An’s small group.
While staying under Lin An’s protection, perhaps for self-preservation or some other reason, they had always been very quiet.
But just as the little boss said, after living days of uncertainty, suddenly finding a place that could truly offer protection, could make one crazily cherish it.
Once at this place, they seemed to come to life.
Looking at each other, the younger brother of the detective siblings, Chen Shen, looked earnestly at Lin An, “Great Commander, I heard that every member needs to report their most skilled area of witchcraft to you?”
Lin An smiled and nodded, “Calling me the Great Commander is everyone’s kindness. The Sorcerer’s Sanctuary isn’t a combat organization; we don’t intend to compete for power or status. We just hope to have our own place to live and stand in this dangerous world.”
“This is everyone’s home, which requires everyone’s effort.”
“You’re not reporting to me what you excel at, but telling all the family what you can contribute to this home.”
“There’s a difference,” Lin An said, looking around at every figure present.
Caidai, Caidai’s daughter Caicai, Lottery, the old accountant.
“I hope all of you will remember what I said today, this is a home, not a power base, I hope everyone can rely on each other, learn from each other, and grow.”
The high school brother Chen Shen was a straightforward boy, touched by these words, he looked to his sister, “I like the Great Commander, I like this home.”

The college student sister Chen Jie clearly had more thoughts, but she didn’t raise any questions at that moment. A leader’s establishment of organizational culture isn’t seen in words but in actions.
She was willing to observe patiently.
After all, she had really experienced the kind of situation where it’s “Treat this place like your own home!” followed by “Do you actually think this is your home?”
“Great Commander, Deputy Commander (junior boss), everyone,” Sister Chen Jie hesitated for a moment, smiling as she spoke, “my family members, I hope to share with you all about our abilities.”
“My younger brother Chen Shen, his strongest witchcraft ability is ‘Stirring Dust.’ In the field of mysticism, this witchcraft is used to trace the past trails of others. In the real world, its function is to ‘stir up change’.”
This was obviously a very abstract concept. She patted her brother on the shoulder, making an encouraging face.
So the younger brother started waving his arms in front of a large boulder nearby, and a burst of purple-red mist gushed out from the palm of his hand, enveloping the boulder.
With the movement of his arms, the boulder visually shattered abruptly, turning into many especially small cubes, constantly rolling and emitting a piercing noise.
That kind of sound was as if it had interfered with people’s cognition of the real world, creating a very unique creaking and trembling sound wave.
The younger brother licked his lips and struck a rather chuuni pose, his fingertips rapidly flicking.
Soon, the small cubes that the boulder had become started rolling and reassembling, slowly taking the shape of a two-story cottage.
Although it looked quite crude, the younger brother’s aesthetic was really average.
“Holy shit!” The junior boss exclaimed, and Lin An joined in unison, “Minecraft?”
As a game developer, he was too familiar with the scene before him; this was none other than that oh-so-familiar mosaic art style.
The younger brother had a smug expression on his face.
Suddenly, the two-story cottage rolled again and reverted to an irregular shape.
“Ahem!” Sister Chen Jie gave her brother a glare as if to say, “Come on, put in a bit more effort!”
So the younger brother quickly dropped the smug look and solemnly cast his spell with pursed lips. After a long while, he finally managed to turn the large boulder back into the shape of a two-story cottage.
“And my ability…”
Sister Chen Jie continued to narrate from the side, “My strongest witchcraft ability is ‘Developing Images.’ In the field of mysticism, it reveals the past my brother has explored, and I usually attach it to photographs or tape.”
“In real-world application, the function of this witchcraft is to ‘confirm its change’.”
Saying this, she slowly stretched out her hand, staring at the two-story cottage. After a good while, she finally snapped her fingers with force.
Crack!
A very strange crisp sound as if some change had momentarily paused, finally presenting a still state of the transformation.
So, the two-story cottage became permanently set in that form.
“Yay~~” The younger brother shouted in excitement, “I’ve always wanted to do this, but my sister wouldn’t let me, afraid that we would be discovered as witches!”
Sister Chen Jie smiled and patted her brother’s head, gesturing towards the little house, “Would everyone like to come in and take a look?”
The small house really looked quite simple, with no foundation; possibly, it would soon settle and crack in this forest with soft soil. There were no stairs leading to the second floor, making it impossible for everyone to easily enter. There were no windows, and if it rained, the inside would probably become a pond…
There were far too many problems.
But they were all trivial matters!
Everyone gazed in amazement at the scene.
“This is a most wonderful beginning!” Lin An said emotionally, looking at everything and turning towards each person, “We’re finally going to have a home of our own!”
Suddenly, many people began to tear up.
The precarious daily life of domestic witches had been extremely tough. These members just happened to be people without much ambition; they all simply wanted to live a normal life.
But even such a simple desire was so hard to achieve.
From a tree not far away, Chen Shuyun listened blankly to Lin An’s narration. She became so engrossed that she grew somewhat infatuated, “Home…”
Ever since her sister went mad and captured her to conduct experiments in the lab, she had been without a home.
Now…
Would this place of refuge also become her home?
